Chapter 628: The Willing One Takes the Bait



After that, Sun Wuniang came often, sometimes reading to her, sometimes chatting with her.

It is said that when she returned to her parents' home on the third day, a joke spread that she said her life was more comfortable than before she got married.

As a result, Ren Dong and Huo Nan became even more popular. When these people found that the official media was useless, some of them went to find Huo Qijing, but Huo Qijing always replied that the matter had to be taken care of by Yan Shiyue.

Many of his fellow Dragon Guardians also talked to him about their sisters at home. Huo Nan always replied that they already had a lover, while Ren Dong said that everything was decided by his master's wife.

Not only that, there are also many young ladies who drop handkerchiefs or something on the road.

After a few days, Huo Nan finally lost his patience and came to ask her to make the decision.

Yan Shiyue called Wei Bo over to ask about it. This time, Wei Bo nodded very happily and said, "Let's give it a try! If he regrets it in the future, please ask the master to let us divorce!"

Yan Shiyue agreed immediately.

So Honan also had a place to stay.

Yan Shiyue even called Ren Donglai over to comfort him. Ren Dong smiled and said, "It's okay! My life is so good now. Sometimes I feel like I'm dreaming when I think about it."

...

...

Ren Dong is the kind of person who is naturally gentle.

Qing Weiliao's gentleness comes from the fact that he has a lot on his mind and is extremely self-controlled, but Ren Dong's gentleness is really that of a person with a simple mind and is easily satisfied.

Yan Shiyue couldn't help but grumble: "To be honest, among them, if we want to talk about good husbands, it should be Wei Liao and A Dong."

She looked at Wei Xin.

Wei Xin waved her hands: "Master, please don't look at me. I don't want to get married in my life."

Yan Shiyue sighed regretfully.

Before going to bed at night, she was still talking to Huo Qijing.

Huo Qijing smiled nonchalantly and said, "I can't get married until I'm twenty, and he's only in his teens, why are you in such a hurry?" He touched her face and said, "Are you not feeling bad now? Do you still have time to care about him?"

"Well, I ate a lot at night..." She responded casually. She was still thinking about saying something, mumbling a few words, and fell asleep again.

As he listened to her falling asleep, he reached out and put her in a comfortable position.

She likes to hug a pillow when she sleeps, and she hugs him in the same way, using the same hands and feet as him and lying on him, because he is afraid of crushing the child.

Although... his hand gently caressed her lower abdomen. Although he couldn't feel anything at the moment, his child was there!

To be honest, before this, he had prepared himself for a lifetime without an heir. However, his little Fu Niang gave him an unexpected surprise.

He couldn't help but kiss her over and over again, until she got impatient and hummed, and then he stopped, feeling unsatisfied.

At this time, the Queen in the palace was also asking: "How is Yue'er today?"

Jin Yu knelt down and massaged her feet, while answering: "I heard that she has been a little better in the past two days. Yi Ye came over and said that she had eaten half a bowl of meat wontons in the evening."

The Queen nodded and said, "It's almost been three months, right?"

"Yes, Madam," Jin Yu said, "It will be three months by the end of the month."

Yan Shiyue vomited violently at first, but later the vomiting became less severe and she became sleepy again. She had not been to the palace for more than a month, and the emperor and empress might ask about her at any time, so her eunuch Yiye had to go to the palace every day.

Jin Yu comforted her: "It's a good thing that you can eat. Maybe you will feel better in the next two days."

The queen closed her eyes and said nothing.

She was worried about Emperor Ming Yan.

Ever since Emperor Ming Yandi fainted from anger over the national treasury incident, he has been in poor health and looks unwell.

He refused to tell her anything when asked, and she couldn't check his pulse. She could only hope that her daughter would enter the palace and comfort him, or come up with a solution.

But my daughter never came.

The queen sighed after a while and said, "Go to sleep."

Not only Yan Shiyue, but even the Crown Prince didn't know about this.

If Emperor Ming Yan had ordered that no one be allowed to see his pulse diagnosis, naturally no one would dare to leak even a single bit of it.

Only those who are close to you can notice the subtle details.

In the afternoon, Yan Shiyue went out and had dinner with everyone, which was a rare occasion.

After dinner, seeing that she was in good spirits, Qu Sinian tried to tell her about what had happened recently.

He is now the Minister in charge of Si Mao, and almost all matters are handled by him. After all, this is a new thing, and he is really unsure about it, but he dare not disturb her.

Now the glass workshop has been taken over by the imperial court and rebuilt at a selected location, and is currently producing day and night.

Qu Sinian said: "Glass products must be kept secret, so they are all made by state-owned glass workshops, and then glass shops are built in various places, and the court sends people to manage them... It is a bit difficult to have shops all over the world, so we can choose a few places first..."

"No," she interrupted him before he finished speaking, "This won't work. What's the difference between what you're doing and the family business of the Meng family? It's such a waste of money! It's such a waste of time!"

He asked, “So?”

Yan Shiyue said: "My idea is exactly the opposite of yours. I think we should pick a few places, build a state-owned glass workshop in each place, and then directly recruit franchisees for shops selling glass products."

Qu Sinian was stunned. He repeated slowly: "Franchisee?"

"Yes," Yan Shiyue said, "We only supply glass products, let their local shops buy them, and let them find ways to transport and sell them."

Qu Sinian said: "It will be difficult to keep secrets when there are too many places."

"It's easy to keep it secret." Yan Shiyue waved his hand to signal the shadow guard to be alert, and then lowered his voice and said: "This thing, to put it bluntly, is a certain ratio. We can take out a small part and change it beyond recognition, and call it a 'secret recipe' or something like that. Then, we have to add this ratio every time. Otherwise, it won't work. Then, as long as we control the 'secret recipe', it will be kept secret."

"To put it bluntly, we need to guard against spies. Think about it, in the whole of Dayan, even if someone stole it, who would dare to sell it because it's a 'state-owned' product? That would be a waste of money, wouldn't it?"

Qu Sinian thought, yes! It's state-owned! But he still couldn't wrap his mind around it.

He asked again: "How to recruit franchisees?"

"It's easy to recruit franchisees," Yan Shiyue said, "We just need to draw up the conditions, and then those who are willing to take the bait will be examined. We will then review their qualifications and conduct annual assessments to ensure that they do not damage the reputation of state-owned enterprises. You are familiar with this kind of thing, so I don't need to say more, right?"

Qu Sinian was a little puzzled: "Then, what is the meaning of your organizing the exam?"

"Train experts," Yan Shiyue said, "There must be certain benefits to being our franchise store. I want to train a group of people who are good at this. Let them do all the assessment and training of the franchise stores."

Qu Sinian nodded and said, "How many glass workshops do you think we should build?"

Yan Shiyue thought about it and suddenly said, "I'm thinking about a question."

"What's the problem?"

"Building a glass workshop requires silver."

Qu Sinian was a little confused.

Of course it has to be silver? So what?
