In that case, it would be better to find a powerful backer to cooperate with.
But in this world, who is more reliable than the imperial court?
Therefore, their original intention was to present it to the imperial court through the government office.
But that doesn't stop them from taking this opportunity to make a fortune.
Sure enough, when Qin Mu spoke, Chi Yu glanced at her sister.
The latter also spoke up, saying, "Wood ash cement is not difficult to make. I helped Xiaoyu when she was making it."
I'm familiar with the specific procedures, so I'll go with you.
At this point, she remembered that this was ancient times, and it wasn't safe for a woman like her to go to the government office.
Since there were men present, representing the Chi clan, he turned to look at Chi Dahu and said:
"Honey, can you come with me?"
To Chi Dahu, Chi Qiao's words meant that his wife wanted to help Xiaoyu, but was unsure and needed him to support her.
Knowing that she loved her younger sister and was wholeheartedly concerned for the Chi family, Chi Dahu was deeply moved at this moment.
"Okay, I'll go with you!"
As Chi Dahu was saying these things, Chi Yu said to Qin Mu, "Mu, most of the baskets on the ground contain clumps of wood ash."
This is something I prepared beforehand; you can take it with you. Your elder brother and sister-in-law know exactly how to do it.
Shen Kai, who was standing to the side, chimed in, "Brother Mu, I know what to do too."
Qin Mu nodded: "Ah Kai, you drive the carriage, let's go to the yamen now."
After saying that, he looked at Chi Yu and said, "Little Fish, let's go out for a bit."
There's rice, noodles, meat, and vegetables in the kitchen; you can make something to eat first.
Currently, apart from the study and the main room where I live, the rest are empty.
There's everything inside, including bedding; you can stay as you see fit, no need to wait for us.
When we go out in a little while, I'll fasten it from the inside.
When they come back, they'll jump in and open the door themselves; you don't need to guard the gate.
Chi Yu nodded, then pulled her sister aside and whispered in her ear:
"Sister, we'll come up with the prescription and say we'll present it to the imperial court. But we want to keep control of the business in Anping County."
However, if we don't do it ourselves, we can give it to the government, and the government will share some of the profits with us.
Most importantly, we need to ask the government if the reward can be exchanged for exemption from this year's corvée labor for the villagers of Chijia'ao.
Chi Qiao patted her hand, "Don't worry, I know what to do."
Since it has been offered to the imperial court, the business certainly cannot be conducted by ourselves.
However, she could try to get something from Anping County.
After all, rebuilding Anping County would require a lot of money.
She can cooperate with the government, so the government must be trying to make some money from it.
In that case, she could have initially claimed that her sister-in-law, unable to bear seeing her family members struggling to rebuild their house, created this item.
Upon learning that the situation in the county town was even more severe after the earthquake, I decided to share this prescription.
There were two purposes. First, to allow the government to make money from this, and then use the money to rebuild the county town.
Secondly, they wanted to take a portion of the profits to rebuild Chijia'ao.
Furthermore, we hope that the government will consider the fact that we offered this prescription and inquire whether the villagers of Chijia'ao can be exempted from corvée labor this year.
If that doesn't work, can we use silver instead? The silver will be deducted from the profits from selling the cement.
Chi Qiao felt that her request was not excessive.
Chijia'ao has more than 300 people, but in terms of households, there are only about 20.
The main problem is that many people are separated into different households but not separate families, like the Lao Chi family.
Therefore, if we were to draw men, there would only be about twenty people.
