Hand over the jade seal first [Infrastructure]

Xiao Zirong deeply felt that the monarchs and ministers of Wei State might not be normal, so he asked him if he wanted to stay in Wei State for what?

He didn't hide the doubt on his face, and asked a little hesitantly: "Your Majesty means that."

Yuan Ke got up suddenly and walked in front of Xiao Zirong, and Xiao Zirong naturally stood up to show politeness.

Before he could stand up, Yuan Ke placed his hand on his shoulder and said, "Just sit down. I just cherish Xiao Lang's talent, so I started to recruit him. Don't be nervous."

Xiao Zirong felt that the smile on his face could no longer be maintained.

Cherish his talents?

What kind of talent does he have that can make Emperor Wei look up to him?

Isn't his persona here in Yuanjia a second-hand dealer?Oh, recently he has evolved from an Erdao dealer to a pawn under the regent's hand, but this identity is not much.

Xiao Zirong tried his best not to look too dazed, and even smiled awkwardly and politely: "Thank you, Your Majesty, but... my wolf master is kind to me, and I dare not forget the kindness of saving my life, so I am afraid that His Majesty will disappointed."

In fact, Yuan Ke was just impulsive at first, and didn't think about whether the other party would agree, maybe subconsciously felt that the other party would not agree.

But after hearing Xiao Zirong's reasons for his refusal, he somehow wanted the other party to stay even more.

Yuan Ke likes Sinology very much, and he has learned it well, and he also agrees with the loyal ministers and righteous men who are admired by the Han people.

However, Wei Guo has the legacy of the Five Hus. In this regard... basically, he has no integrity, and everyone advocates the value of force.

Yuan Ke wanted such a loyal minister but couldn't get it. Now that he saw someone from someone else's family, even if he didn't know whether the other party was capable or not, he really wanted the courage of the other party.

Not to mention good-looking, such a person is also pleasing to the eye.

Yuan Ke deeply felt that Xiao Xuexing was really reckless. Such a person was actually released to travel all over the world to do business. How could he maintain his beauty after spending a long time in the open?

But he will not ask again, anyway, he is also the emperor, want to save face.

He sat directly on his hands and said, "King Guangyang showed me the glazed lantern you brought this time. I wonder if there are other things besides the glazed lantern?"

Xiao Zirong smiled slightly and said: "Of course there are. Glazed products are not just glazed lamps. It's just that this glazed lamp was designed by the younger brother of my lord, so I'm pushing it hard."

Xiao Xuexing's younger brother?

Xiao Xuexing's background in the Northern Wei Dynasty is pretty much known here, where did his younger brother come from?

To be honest...there is also one, the only remaining son of Emperor Wu of Qi, Xiao Zirong, King of Xuancheng.

It is said that Xiao Zirong is very precious to the other party. King Xuancheng has never appeared in front of people for so many years. Was it him who made it?

After thinking about it for a while, he asked, "Then what else?"

Xiao Zirong said: "Coincidentally, I also brought a gift for His Majesty this time. I was afraid it would be too abrupt, so I didn't take it out. Now it's just right."

Yuan Ke was rather curious: "The gift that Xiao Xuexing prepared for me?"

Xiao Zirong paused and said: "No, this matter was done by the grassroots in private, if His Majesty thinks it's inappropriate..."

"Okay, okay, bring it up quickly."

If it was a gift prepared by Xiao Xuexing, Yuan Ke might really not want to accept it.

This will make him feel that the other party is showing off to him, it's too disgusting, isn't it?

But if it was prepared by Xiao Wen himself, then there is no problem, even if those things are still produced by Xiao Xuexing's workshop, but it would be boring to pursue this, right?

He only valued Xiao Wen's intentions.

Yuan Ke's attitude made Xiao Zirong feel weird. Did he not want the gift from Xiao Xuexing, but only from him?

What's the situation?

He suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and glanced at Yuan Jia. Yuan Jia, who had been forgotten by the side until he was a bit out of place, realized it at this moment, and said quickly, "I'll let someone carry it up."

After the box was lifted up, although Yuan Ke was curious, he was obviously smarter than Yuan Jia, so he asked the guards to open the box first.

After opening the box, the glazed products wrapped in silk kapok are neatly carried inside, and the reflected light can be seen through the shock-absorbing measures.

Yuan Ke asked people to get the things up, but after they opened it thoroughly, they discovered that it was a set of Buddha statues.

The Buddha statues are not big, and the tallest one is no more than two palms high, but there are many of them, and each one is lifelike.

The transparency of the glass and the color of the painting are just right, making the Buddha statue look very gorgeous.

Colored glass is one of the treasures of Buddhism. Yuan Ke couldn't sit still when he saw so many colored glass Buddha statues.

Yuan Ke looked at the Buddha statues in front of him one by one, and couldn't put it down.

Not to mention him, even Yuan Jia stared straight at him.

Although the glazed lamp is good, this Buddha statue is also great, and he wants it very much.

And besides the larger Buddha statues, Xiao Zirong even made colored glazed lotus bracelets, and even made them into colorful colors.

When he made it, he thought it was too exaggerated, but he still added it in. There was a small glazed amulet hanging on it, and the amulet was directly turned yellow.

Originally, Xiao Zirong wanted to make it into a gradient color, but the craftsmanship required was relatively high, and Xiao Zirong was unwilling to bother so much for the emperor of the enemy country, so he just made it a random color.

Anyway, it would be good for Yuan Ke to use it as a reward.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Ke seemed to like it very much, so he put the exaggerated lotus flower bracelet on his hand on the spot, and touched it lovingly.

After Yuan Ke ordered the Buddha statue to be carefully put away, he touched the glass bracelet on his hand, and smiled more gently at Xiao Zirong.

Xiao Zirong hesitated for a moment and said, "This... I still need to remind Your Majesty that colored glaze is fragile, so please wear it carefully."

Of course Yuan Ke knew the characteristics of Liuli, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will treat it well."

Xiao Zirong: ...

Yuan Jia couldn't help asking: "Xiao Lang, this is what you want to sell too? Why didn't you take it out before?"

Xiao Zirong immediately said: "This item is expensive, and requires more glass and more complicated craftsmanship, so unless a deposit is made to order, it will not be sold publicly."

Yuan Jia was even more interested when he said that. The meaning of custom-made is that the quantity is small.

Isn't what the rich want is a special one? Yuan Jia really wants to order a set, but...the emperor has already taken one, so he must not want the same one as the emperor.

Xiao Zirong knew what he was thinking when he looked at him like this, and said very considerately: "Actually, this is custom-made... We all suggest that we provide the drawings ourselves, but we can't guarantee 100% restoration, we can only say our best."

Yuan Ke was obviously very interested after hearing this, and asked directly: "Are you answering everything?"

Xiao Zirong tilted his head and thought for a while: "Depending on the situation, if the craftsmanship is very complicated, it may take a little longer to order, maybe four months or even half a year, because to achieve a good effect requires constant testing."

Yuan Ke asked: "How big can you do it?"

Xiao Zirong said seriously: "It is possible, but it must be ensured that it can be transported. Of course, if you agree to transport it in pieces, it is also possible to combine them at the designated place."

Yuan Jia asked curiously: "Will you see cracks after that combination?"

Xiao Zirong smiled and said: "How come, the division is not very rigid, it will be separated in a relatively secret place, and when combined, it will be combined with glass."

Xiao Zirong is not worried that others will see their glass-burning process. Anyway, the most important thing in his hands is not the glass-burning process but the raw materials for making glass, and the formula to improve the transparency of glass after firing.

The glass used for bonding must have been fired in Qi State in advance, and after it was fired, it was brought over, and then heated and softened before bonding.

Yuan Ke rested his chin and looked at Xiao Zirong with some hesitation. He really wanted to order a super-large Buddha statue, but the other party said that it would be separated and assembled here, which made him a little uncertain. What if the assembly does not look good?

In fact, Xiao Zirong didn't really want to pick up large items. Such large items were troublesome to make and prone to problems in transportation. Smaller items were actually better.

So Yuanke and Yuanjia didn't speak, and he didn't make any special efforts to re-sell.

The little eunuch next to Yuan Ke reminded him in a low voice, probably because he felt that Yuan Ke had been meeting Xiao Zirong for a long time, and he wanted to do other things.

Especially when it was near noon, it was time for him to eat.

After hearing this, Yuan Ke waved his hand and said, "Set the meal, I want to have a meal with Xiao Lang."

After a pause, he seemed to remember that there was another Yuan Jia and added: "King Guangyang is also here."

Yuan Jia: ...

He didn't know why, but he felt that he was just being carried along, and he looked very disgusted by the emperor's intentions.

Although Yuan Jia was sometimes a bit erratic, there were not many people who could compare with him in seeing the emperor's face.

He knew that at this moment it was best to resign by himself and leave the emperor alone with Xiao Wen, after all, the emperor seemed very interested in this.

But for some reason today, Yuan Jia was worried that Xiao Wen would be in danger, even though he didn't know what danger it was, so he still bit the bullet and stayed.

When he stayed, he knew he was doing the right thing.

Because Yuan Ke actually introduced the dishes on the table to Xiao Wen.

Yuan Jia felt that even being struck by lightning was not enough to express his shock at this moment.

Yuan Ke is the emperor, even the prime minister doesn't have this kind of treatment, right?

Yuan Jiashi didn't know the taste of this meal, and all he could think about was eating it quickly, and he took Xiao Wen away after eating.

In fact, Yuan Jia also presented beauties to Yuan Kejin before, but this time he didn't think about it at all. He couldn't understand why he didn't want to, so he could only tell himself that Xiao Wen was not an Israeli servant.

And Yuan Ke obviously admired Xiao Zirong very much. Even some ministers would tremble and couldn't let go of eating with him these days, and those ministers who could see him often were better.

But this young man is very calm, and his generous appearance puts everyone in a good mood.

Of course, this is to feel good about people who like it, and people who don't like it may feel offended.

After finally finishing the meal, Xiao Zirong also looked at Yuan Jia, hoping that Yuan Jia would be smarter and leave quickly.

Yuan Jia could detect something was wrong, couldn't he see it?

In the end, before Yuan Jia could speak, Yuan Ke took a sip of honey water and got up and said, "Let's go, Xiao Wen will accompany me to the back garden for a stroll, and King Guangyang should leave first if he has something to do."

Yuan Jia:! ! !

I'm afraid I'm going to stay in the harem and won't be able to get out!
