The carriage continued to drive forward, and it didn't take long to come to a construction site full of people's voices and jingling sounds.

This place is the new headquarters of Dream Group.

Zhang Xuansu got off the carriage, but his face was in a daze.

All I could see was a busy scene, with construction going on everywhere.

Looking up again, I saw a huge chimney at the lower reaches of a small river in the distant mountain depression, billowing black smoke.

He asked curiously, "What is that?"

The housekeeper introduced: "My lord, I'm not sure, but I've heard people say that it should be the glass factory of Dream Group, where glass is fired."

"Just a chimney, can glass be burned out?" Zhang Xuansu was puzzled.

Just then, a figure walked over.

It was a man in his 30s, dirty all over, but with an extraordinary bearing.

The other party walked up to Zhang Xuansu, saluted, and asked, "Dare to ask, is it Mr. Shi Zhang, the head of the son-in-law's house?"

Zhang Xuansu nodded: "It's the old man, why can't Du He be seen?"

The man said with a smile: "Master Zhang, my young master has something to do in Chang'an, so I have been specially asked to meet Master Zhang. My name is Lu Yuan, and I am the chief engineer of Datang Construction Company. Master Zhang, please!"

Zhang Xuansu curled his lips, the boss in his heart was not happy.

But he had to follow Lu Yuan forward.

In a short time, several people came to the construction site of the new headquarters of Dream Group, walked up the newly built stone steps, and finally came to an open space halfway up the mountain, surrounded by several temporary activities that had just been built plank house.

Lu Yuan pointed to this open space: "Master Zhang, this is the son-in-law's mansion."

Consort House?

Zhang Xuansu stared wide-eyed, looking at the flat and good open space, "Aren't you playing tricks on the old man? Where is the son-in-law's house?"

There was obviously nothing around.

Lu Yuan pointed not far away: "Master Zhang, please take a look, that is the gate of the Prince Consort's Mansion."

Zhang Xuansu turned his head to look, and saw there were two wooden sticks supporting a door plaque, which read: Prince Consort's Mansion.

Lu Yuan explained: "Master Zhang, don't worry, this is indeed the Consort's Mansion, but His Majesty allowed my young master to build a Consort's Mansion, but there is no ready-made mansion, and I still need my young master to build it himself. It is just the beginning, the young master said, Mr. Zhang is the Chief History of the Consort’s Mansion, that is, the chief steward of the Consort’s Mansion. He happens to be the supervisor and supervises the construction of the Consort’s Mansion. During this period of time, you will live here with the workers. After the Consort’s Mansion is completed, you can move in again. Late!"

A gust of cold wind blew, and Henry Zhang sneezed.

chilly.

Bitter cold.

He was heartbroken.

Suddenly, he flicked his sleeves: "Du He is too deceitful, this old man will go back to Chang'an and report this matter to His Majesty."

Lu Yuan sneered and said: "Master Zhang, it's too late... Now, since you are the chief history of the consort's mansion, you are the young master's subordinate. The young master said that you will stay here until the construction of the concubine's mansion is completed, and do a good job." Overseer, you can't go anywhere... By the way, there is a patrolling Hu County Guancheng Brigade not far away. They are all the personal guards of His Highness the King of Shu. If you leave rashly, those in charge of the city will beat you up Or if you are arrested, then it will only increase your troubles, don't you think?"

Zhang Xuansu was extremely angry, but he was helpless.

Nowadays, people are fighting for the knife and I am the fish for the fish, so there is no chance of reasoning!

Since then, Zhang Xuansu has become a supervisor on the construction site. In the freezing season, he is wrapped in a thick quilt and urges the craftsmen to speed up the construction of the son-in-law's mansion.

Chapter 928? Court Banquet

The 25th of the twelfth lunar month.

There was a decree from the palace that His Majesty Li Er was going to hold a grand banquet for all the ministers in the Tai Chi Palace on the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month.

Although Du He was not an official of the imperial court, he was a son-in-law, so he was naturally included in the list.

After receiving the decree, the Ministry of Rites and the Palace Supervisor and other affairs departments began to get busy.

Hu County.

County government.

"Teacher," Li Ke, the King of Shu, hurried to find Du He, "I heard that the royal father's grand banquet is for celebrating the New Year. Many ministers, including the princes, have prepared gifts. What do you think we should prepare? No, let's also buy some rare treasures, and then dedicate them to the emperor?"

Du He thought for a while, "Your Highness, my father has always been frugal, and I don't like those who are empty-headed. The so-called gifts should reflect His Highness's filial piety, and don't need to be too extravagant."

"Oh, teacher, then I'll prepare. When the time comes, I'll surprise my father." Li Ke happily prepared.

After a lot of busy work, Du He actually forgot about this matter.

Until the 27th of the twelfth lunar month, seeing that there was only one day left for the court banquet, Li Ke came to tell him excitedly that his gift was ready, and Du He suddenly realized.

Du He was actually not very interested in presenting gifts.

However, all the civil and military officials in the dynasty have prepared gifts, and they will be dedicated to Li Er at that time. Wouldn’t it be strange if he didn’t prepare anything? What’s more, he had already promised the two princesses Li Yuanshu and Li Lizhi that he would prepare a unique gift. If different gifts are not available at that time, wouldn't it be embarrassing for the two princesses.

Du He returned to the house and began to think.

He had a lot of presents at hand, but he was still not very satisfied after picking and choosing.

After thinking for a while, he turned on the super invincible lottery system.

Good guy, I haven't taken care of the system for a long time, and I already have 13 shock points.

You can draw twice!

Du He: "System, draw a lottery!"

System: "Host, do you want to spend [-] shock points to draw a prize?"

"Yes!"

"Ding!"

"Congratulations to the host, I got a bag of fresh Chaotian pepper."

puff.

A bag the size of one's arms landed at Du He's feet.
