Because of this, the cement workshop was fully staffed in a short period of time.

Now if we want to expand enrollment, I'm afraid the cement workshop will have to be enlarged and the number of people will increase.

Xuanyuan Ke was stunned for a moment, but after thinking about it carefully, Zhu Qiuqi was right.

Because this cement workshop needed a lot of employees before, it has stopped recruiting people for a long time.

And the output of cement was fixed, so there was no increase in production.

Now that we need a lot of cement, we really need to increase the production.

Xuanyuan Ke just thought for a moment and then agreed to the matter.

"I'd rather worry about expanding the cement workshop, Madam."

Zhu Qiuqi nodded and did not refuse.

This matter really cannot be declined. Although the cement workshop is now owned by Da Zhou, Cement Workshop 8 was originally founded by her, and she has to help expand it.

Another thing is that this cement workshop is used to strengthen the border wall, which she cannot refuse.

Seeing Zhu Qiuqi nodding in agreement, Xuanyuan Ke felt a little more at ease.

He has never doubted Zhu Qiuqi's ability to do things.

Zhu Qiuqi could transform the entire Qingshui County into what it is now, and he knew that she was quite capable.

Seeing Xuanyuan Ke go back, Zhu Qiuqi sighed and went out to the village committee.

Xuanyuan Ke had just said that now that the Fanbang people had withdrawn their troops, they had taken advantage of this time to build the city wall.

There are a lot of places to be built, and they have to speed up the process without delay.

When Zhu Qiuqi arrived at the village committee, Zhang Kui and Sun Hong were both there.

Seeing Zhu Qiuqi coming suddenly, the two knew that Zhu Qiuqi wanted to see them for something.

Although Zhu Qiuqi and the entire Xiao Zhangzhuang now run the workshop in Xiao Zhang Village, Zhu Qiu Qi rarely comes to see them when he has nothing to do.

Now that they saw Zhu Qiuqi not only coming alone, but also looking at Zhu Qiuqi's face, they knew something was wrong.

"Qiu Qi, why are you here today? But what happened?"

Zhu Qiuqi nodded, "I have something to discuss with my two uncles."

Sun Hong and Zhang Kui looked at each other, and both of them saw the solemn look on Zhu Qiuqi's face.

"Qiu Qi, if you have anything to do, just ask, and we will definitely not refuse."

Sun Hong made his attitude clear.

Zhang Kui on the side also nodded after hearing this.

"Yes Qiu Qi, if you have anything to do, just ask. We villagers will not refuse anything we can do."

Zhu Qiuqi sighed and then explained his purpose.

"Two village chiefs, Prince Wang received the news today. His Majesty hopes that we can expand the cement workshop."

Zhang Kui and Sun Hong were stunned for a moment when they heard that it was about a cement workshop.

Since this cement workshop became Dazhou's property, they rarely visited it on weekdays.

After all, this is something that belongs to the state, and there are no special personnel to guard it. It is not easy for them to go and check it.

"Qiu Qi, if you ask us about this matter, there's nothing we can do. If His Majesty doesn't open his mouth or send someone, there's nothing we can do."

Zhu Qiuqi knew what the two of them were worried about.

"His Majesty has ordered that the expansion of the cement workshop be left to our village."

"My abilities alone are limited, and I need the help of my two uncles."

When Sun Hong heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Qiu Qi, you...you mean His Majesty...His Majesty wants us to help expand the cement workshop?"

Zhang Kui on the side also stood up excitedly. This is the order given by His Majesty to them. This...

Although the plaque awarded by His Majesty is now at the entrance of their village, it was also given to Zhu Qiuqi last time.

His Majesty has never interacted with the villagers before, and now he has found them.

Zhu Qiuqi nodded and handed over the imperial edict given to her by Xuanyuan Ke to the two of them.

"Uncle Zhang, Uncle Sun, this is His Majesty's imperial edict. Knowing that some people may obstruct the expansion of the workshop, he gave it to us so that we can go smoothly."

Although the current magistrate of Qingshui County is Mr. Han, if they want to expand the cement workshop, Mr. Han will naturally not stop them.

But the entire Qingshui County is not decided by Mr. Han as a county magistrate.

There are also the wealthy gentry households that support Qingshui County, and the wealthy families in the county.

The Li family is easy to talk to, but the Wang family and the Sun family...

The Miss Sun who had suffered a loss in their Xiao Zhangzhuang before was heard to be extremely popular with Mr. Sun.

If this thing is to be done, I'm afraid this person will get in the way.

Not only that, but also the Wang family.

The Wang family has issues with Magistrate Han and his family. If Magistrate Han comes forward to expand the cement workshop, I'm afraid the Wang family will not give up.

Although the cousin of the Wang family was arrested, the first, second and third bedrooms of the Wang family were very happy.

But the problem lies with the old lady of the Wang family.

I heard that the old lady loved her granddaughter very much. Ever since the cousin of the Wang family was arrested, the old lady started making trouble at home.

Not only that, but he also had a grudge against Magistrate Han...

If the old lady knew that Magistrate Han was planning to expand the cement workshop, she would probably take action behind her back.

It was precisely because of this that Zhu Qiuqi had to give the imperial edict to the two of them.

The purpose is to prevent the two of them from being taken advantage of when facing families like the Wang family and the Sun family.

It seemed that she had to go back and discuss this matter with Xuanyuan Ke.

After all, this cement workshop has now become their Xuanyuan family, so they have to do something.

Sun Hong and Zhang Kui originally thought that the emperor's order to them was just a verbal order.

Unexpectedly, this turned out to be an imperial edict.

They have lived in this remote country for so long, and yet they can still see the imperial edict one day.

After seeing the imperial edict, Sun Hong and Zhang Kui subconsciously wanted to kneel down.

Zhu Qiuqi was startled, and before she could get up, the two of them kowtowed to the imperial edict.

Zhu Qiuqi knew that this imperial edict was equivalent to the emperor's personal visit. After hesitating for a long time, Zhu Qiuqi still didn't do anything extraordinary to avoid being caught.

After the two of them finished knocking, they were helped up.

"Uncle Sun, Uncle Zhang, this imperial edict is placed in our village committee. The expansion of the cement workshop must be expanded as soon as possible, but there are probably a lot of people who have to stop it. That's why Your Majesty sent the edict."

It was the first time in their lives that the two of them saw an imperial edict, and they looked very excited.

After hearing Zhu Qiuqi's words, the two of them understood the purpose of this imperial edict.

"Don't worry Qiu Qi, we know what to do."

Zhu Qiuqi actually had already spoken, and the imperial edict had already arrived at their Xiaozhang Village. They really had nothing to fear.
