It is another spring of the year.
This is the third year Li Yu has come to the world of martial arts, and also the third spring she has spent.
In the first spring, she was on the road; in the second spring, she just got rid of Wanmatang, and Yinzhou began to regenerate; and in the third spring...she was expanding the city.
Yes, expand the city.
The common people got the news very quickly. In just one year, Yinzhou City became prosperous, and those policies of Huiming are really eye-catching.As soon as the roads in Yinzhou were unsealed this year, people fleeing into the city continued.
Being a fugitive is really an identity that people love and hate at the same time.
What I love is that the huge Yinzhou really needs a lot of people to build it, so the more people there are, the better.
What I hate is that fugitives are just like modern illegal immigrants. When they arrive in a place, their passports are torn off, and no one knows where they came from and what they have done before.So it's hard to say that there won't be villains who fish in troubled waters and increase the crime rate.
However, Li Yu had thought of this matter a long time ago, and he had plenty of ways to deal with it.
This past winter, Chu Liuxiang came back from the stone forest and brought back many men and women who were killed by Shi Guanyin. After a period of investigation, Li Yu also took the qualified people under his command.It's just that there are not many people who can use it, because under the torture of Shi Guanyin, there are not many people who can maintain normal personality and action ability.
Lingwuwei is her private guard. To manage such a huge Yinzhou city, the establishment is also very difficult, so Li Yu officially adjusted the establishment in the winter of last year.
Liu Fang, the prefect of Yinzhou who didn't know where to make soy sauce, was also picked up by Li Yu.Although he is a person with no sense of presence, this just shows his intelligence.
So Li Yu decided to use him, and Liu Fang was responsible for the population and people's livelihood in Yinzhou.It's just that he is not one of his own, so naturally he can't believe it, so Li Yu is also called Shi Xieli, the head of the princess' mansion.
Such a smart person as Liu Fang, he naturally knew who was in charge of this Yinzhou city, and he accepted it without even struggling.
The team of the prefect's mansion will be done.
In addition, Shen Sanniang is in charge of prisons, Yew Shan is in charge of logistics, and Yue Yun is the chief supervisor of the Princess Mansion.Some people were separated from Lingwuwei, and then merged into Shilin. The men and women who were rescued formed an organization called "Arrest House", which was in charge of public security in Yinzhou. catch house.
Li Yu appointed a woman named Qu Wurong in the stone forest as the chief arrester of the Yinzhou arresting house.
This person is naturally a famous figure in the ring of characters. After Li Yu saw it, he realized that this person was also very miserable. Because Shi Guanyin was jealous of her beauty and self-destructed, and because Shi Guanyin was jealous of her martial arts talent , in order to protect himself, he had to cut off his own wrist.
Qu Wurong was born with a pure nature and a first-class talent. She had a beautiful figure and a strong martial arts, but it was a pity that she was killed by Shi Guanyin.
Even when they came to Yinzhou, they just drifted with the tide like a wandering soul.
When Li Yu saw her, he felt satisfied no matter what, so he persuaded her to stay and be the chief catcher of the house.
Qu Wurong was naturally extremely surprised.
She lived under the shadow of Shi Guanyin for the first half of her life. She has seen a lot of cruel and perverted things, but she has not seen many normal people and normal things. At first glance, a person as beautiful as a fairy came to invite her To maintain law and order, I was stunned for a while.
Li Yu smiled and said: "You don't have to worry about remuneration. We have eight days off every month here. After working for one year, we have an extra ten days of vacation every year. There is a cafeteria for eating and drinking, and we pay [-] months' wages every year. Of course, I There are no evil things like burning, killing and looting here, so the wages are normal, not much higher."
She babbled a lot, and Qu Wurong was dumbfounded, before saying after a long while: "No... no, I didn't mean this..."
Li Yu smiled lightly and said, "Then do you have a place to go now?"
Qu Wurong was taken aback for a moment, and said, "No."
Li Yu said: "Since there is no one, why don't you stay in Yinzhou for a while, and when you think it over, it's not too late to leave."
She really likes Qu Wurong, and really wants to keep her.
Qu Wurong was silent for a long while, then shook his head suddenly, and said, "If I leave halfway, wouldn't it mean that I won't be able to enjoy the ten-day paid vacation for a year?"
She was wearing a veil, and Li Yu couldn't see her face clearly, but he could feel a relaxed and warm smile all over her at the moment.
Li Yu smiled and said, "Then congratulations on taking office."
Qu Wurong bowed deeply.
Since then, Qu Wurong has officially become one of the migrant workers in the Princess Mansion. She is unparalleled in intelligence and high in martial arts. With her in Yinzhou City, there is no need to worry about what will happen to the people who flood into the city this year.
It's just that although the security problem has been resolved, the more people flood into the city, the greater the workload of the Princess Mansion.
Household registration, registration, land distribution, construction of low-rent housing, hygiene habits, etc., etc., can make Li Yu very busy.
Yinzhou is a small city, and it can't accommodate so many people. Therefore, the expansion of the city has been put on the agenda, but because of the pulley block, even the largest boulder can be lifted easily, so this time the outer city is expanded. , and no dead people, everything is gratifying.
The only unpleasant thing is...Li Yu broke up with Chu Liuxiang.
It seems that Li Yu is not alone in thinking about this matter.
Chu Liuxiang is a prodigal son who lives all over the world. He likes excitement, stories, and new and interesting people.So he is destined to absorb nutrients from these things, if he does not absorb nutrients, he will not be far from withering.
On the eve of the breakup, Chu Liuxiang often hugged her and told her about the mountains and rivers, strange mountains and waters he had seen, and those friends with different personalities but all lovely.
He is a very good storyteller, Li Yu couldn't help being moved by what he told, and wanted to see the rivers and lakes he was talking about.
Chu Liuxiang lowered her head and saw the princess snuggling in his arms, being amused by him, her eyes sparkling, as if yearning for it.
His heart moved, and he said softly to Li Yu: "Xiaoyu, let me take you to the world outside Yinzhou, okay?"
After hearing this, Li Yu shook his head and sighed, "I can't leave Yinzhou."
That's right, everything in Yinzhou is designed around her. If she leaves, who should get these things?From the first day she had Yinzhou, she took this city as her own home and built it with all her heart.
When Chu Liuxiang heard the words, she couldn't help but smiled wryly, and said, "Yes, the princess cannot leave Yinzhou. If you leave, what will the people here do?"
Li Yu looked up and saw Chu Liuxiang's chin.
On his chin, there are some green stubble.
Li Yu said: "Do you want to go out?"
Chu Liuxiang was shocked all over, and smiled reluctantly: "People are like this. When they are outside, they always want to go back to sleep, but when they are inside, they always feel itchy."
Li Yu sighed: "Then you... go out."
Chu Liuxiang was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked: "Does Xiaoyu wait for me?"
Li Yu was also silent for a moment.
After a while, she shook her head and said, "No, I won't wait for anyone."
She is not Su Rongrong, Li Hongxiu, and Song Tian'er.The three of them had lived with Chu Liuxiang since they were young, and they were used to waiting for him to come back.
Through observation during these days, Li Yu has already seen that Chu Liuxiang really has no affection for these three girls, and just treats them as younger sisters.
But from the perspective of these three girls?My sweetheart is always living a wonderful life outside, they stay in a small boat day after day, year after year, waiting for Chu Liuxiang to come back.
Are they alive only when Chu Liuxiang comes back?
What does it feel like to wait for someone day after day?
Li Yu didn't want to know, nor did he want to know.She was already terrified of dedication, and she would never do what such a "good woman" would do.
After hearing this answer, Chu Liuxiang suddenly let out a long sigh.
He didn't say anything, just lowered his head and kissed Li Yu.In this kiss, Li Yu already felt Chu Liuxiang's sincerity.
But sincerity is sometimes not the most important thing in this world.
Chu Liuxiang said: "If I come back, the princess won't beat me out?"
Li Yu stretched out a finger and lightly touched his lips.
She said: "If you come back, no matter how bad the wind and rain are, I will..."
She got stuck, and continued: "...ask someone to pick you up."
Chu Liuxiang laughed loudly, and after laughing for a long time, he said: "You are such a slacker, you don't even want to take two steps!"
Li Yu also smiled and fell into his arms.
After a few days, he took Su Rongrong and the other three to leave, but Li Yu gave him some gold, silver and jewelry for travel expenses, but when Chu Liuxiang saw him, he twitched the corners of his mouth, thinking that this was something. It's always a bit like that... uh, prostitute|capital?
With a delicate mood, he squeezed out a bank note and confiscated the rest.
He planned to go back to his own boat first, have a nice swim in the sea, and then enjoy the sea breeze and bask in the sun.
He hadn't smelled the sea breeze for a long time.
Although the breakup seemed calm and peaceful this time, it was not easy for the two of them. When Li Yu fell in love, he didn't just find someone casually. He was with Chu Liuxiang back then because... he Really a nice, lovely man.
After breaking up like this, she couldn't help feeling sad and sad, and she just lamented that there is nothing easy in this world, the two people's temperaments are very suitable, but they just can't be together.
The only way to relieve worries is to work.Li Yu, who understands this truth very well, plunges into the new year's work, so as to let the faint sadness go away from her.
Now that I have a lot of spare money in hand, in fact, this skill tree can also be used in industries, such as glass, silver mirrors and the like.
These things are all luxuries and can be sold at high prices.
In fact, Li Yu has long wanted to do something like glass. Yinzhou is surrounded by sand on three sides. In other words, isn't it the inexhaustible and inexhaustible silica on three sides?
According to people who came from the direction of Stone Forest, the desert on the other side of Stone Forest is not yellow, but almost pure white.Li Yu was even happier. The main component of the White Desert is probably chalk, which is calcium carbonate.
According to legend, the earliest glass formula was handed down by the Assyrians in the Mesopotamia. The formula was made of sand, chalk and plant ash in a certain proportion. ①
As long as you master the technology, even sand is an important resource for getting rich!
Li Yu didn't do it before because the people in Yinzhou knew too few things.
Ma Kongqun regards Yinzhou as the back garden of his own slaves, and the people in the city will hardly do anything with technical content other than gaining ground and importing things that Wanmatang's aunts and aunts like.
There are craftsmen who make iron and weapons, but they are all taken to Wanmatang to work day and night. There are almost no iron shops in the city.
So... Of course there are no craftsmen who can burn ceramics, and there are no such things as kilns.
This year, a large number of fugitives flooded into the city. Many of these fugitives were craftsmen. After they divided their fields, they immediately sold their fields in exchange for capital to open shops in the city.
Because the princess encourages business, there are corresponding policies to benefit the people when opening shops in the city. The procedures are quick and convenient, unlike other places where you have to give money to evil officials to find a way out.
Therefore, just one month after spring, many craftsmen's shops have gathered in the southeast corner of the city. These craftsmen can't afford to rent the shops in the bustling commercial area of East Avenue, so they find a place that is cheaper. A bunch of craftsmen gather together, which is called The southeast corner, which was originally not much to visit, also has some flavor.
A lot of businessmen from all over the world have been established, and they even privately formed groups according to regions, and established many chambers of commerce. It seems that it is really lively.
But before Li Yu started looking for someone, the person came to his door by himself.
Kilns are needed to burn ceramics, and most of the kilns nowadays are built against mountains.And building things on the princess's territory, shouldn't the princess's consent be required?These people are all people who escaped from the oppression of local snakes everywhere, so naturally they can't offend new... local snakes in new places.
Logically speaking, this matter should not be reported to Li Yu's desk, and Zhan Zhao should only need to deal with it. The first second Liu Fang received this incident, she was so blessed that she came directly to see the princess.
Li Yu was very satisfied that he was so smart.After thinking about it for a while, Li Yu agreed to meet these people who wanted to open a kiln in person.
They sent a representative to meet Li Yu.
This person is a businessman, surnamed Han.He made a lot of money in his early years, and did well in Tianshui City, another city in the northwest, but later the youngest son of the family offended the local sect and caused disaster. He ran away with his whole family.
He owns a pottery factory in Tianshui, where he can burn pottery and tiles. Pottery is not very valuable, but the demand is high. Who doesn’t need clay bowls and pots in ordinary households?Therefore, his pottery kiln is not small.
Because he was very nice and was very nice to the workers at home, when he ran away, many loyal servants followed him.
He wanted to find out how to open a pottery kiln through the door, but unexpectedly the princess wanted to meet him in person.
This action made the businessman surnamed Han very uneasy.
The name of Princess Anle was known to many people in the Great Ye Dynasty. When she was exiled in Yinzhou the year before last, many people found out the story of her mother, the enchanting concubine Liu Shi, and told them a lot.
But at that time, when people talked about Princess Anle, they mostly talked about whether she had the same beauty as her mother, which could bring disaster to the country.
But this year is quite different. Princess Anle's powerful methods have spread to all over the world, causing people to have a little fear of this decisive princess.
Of course, Han merchants are also very afraid, or... as long as they are merchants, there is no one who is not afraid of these princes and nobles, not to mention that these princes and nobles still hold real power in their hands.
This morning when he saw the princess, Han Shang changed into neat but plain clothes, and checked his attire carefully to avoid bumping into the princess.
Soon someone came to invite him from the Princess Mansion. With a smile on his face, Han Shang stuffed small red envelopes for those Lingwu guards who came to invite him, and then followed them to the Princess Mansion.
After entering the mansion, his head was lowered, and he didn't even dare to look up. When he entered the princess's study, he immediately knelt down and saluted, and then heard a female voice.
The female voice said: "Get up, give me your seat."
This female voice was very gentle, with the usual indifference of some superiors. It was very pleasant, but to Han Shang's ears, it always felt that there was a majesty that could not be ignored.
Who in this world doesn't know about the fact that the princess destroyed Wanmatang half a year after she came to Yinzhou?Many people who can't see clearly always think that Her Highness the Princess is attached to the vengeful young Fu Hongxue, but Han Shang is a sensible person, and thinks that those fools really can't turn their heads.
If the princess relies on others to remove Wanmatang, then she is just an ordinary person.But look now, where is the vengeful boy now, and where is the princess? If the princess is just attached, then why is everything in Yinzhou City branded with the princess?
How can a woman like her, who holds all the power tightly in her own hands, be underestimated?
Han Shang respectfully thanked him and raised his head respectfully.
The princess is indeed a beauty, and her beauty is indeed the kind of pale and feeble willow that all men in the world like.But her eyes are so calm, so easy, as if nothing can trouble her.
Han Shang didn't understand why the trivial matter of opening a pottery kiln could alarm the princess.
However, the princess didn't play tricks. After Han Shang finished talking about the matter, she told him straightforwardly: "It's okay to open a pottery kiln, but the princess's mansion also wants to open a kiln. I wonder if you are interested?"
Han Shang was startled and asked, "I wonder what kind of kiln His Highness wants to open?"
The princess replied casually: "The glass kiln."
This time, Han Shang was really surprised.
As we all know, although the Great Ye Dynasty also produced glass, most of them were made of imitation jade, and the inside was not very transparent.As far as glass is concerned, the best ones are the transparent glass vessels from the Western Regions. There are various patterns on the beautiful, transparent glass vials, which are really exquisite.
Of course the price is also...
A small glass bottle can be sold for a high price of 100 taels.With such a high price, ordinary people would definitely not be able to afford it, but rich princes and nobles are all after this item.
Han Shang is a businessman who has traveled all over the world and has seen a lot. Naturally, he has seen this kind of glassware, but the Central Plains people have not been able to find the knack of firing transparent glass for so many years. Even if he is a businessman, what idea does he have? ?
Hearing what the princess said at the moment, he was more frightened than pleasantly surprised, because he always felt that the princess didn't understand technology, and he only thought that if they were asked to develop it, they had to develop it, and he didn't care about the hardships involved.
This can't be answered!If he agrees, what will happen if the princess blames him if he can't get anything out at that time!
Thinking so, Han Shang knelt down on the ground again with a plop, and hurriedly confessed that his family could only make pottery, and even porcelain was not good at it. He really didn't know anything about making glass!
Li Yu really couldn't laugh or cry with this habit of kneeling at every turn. Seeing that Han Shang was so frightened, she hurriedly asked Yew Shan to float him up, and then said softly: "Don't be afraid, I have something for this recipe for burning glass." I heard that now I want to set up a factory by myself, but there is a lack of skilled kiln workers. This method is my own idea. It would be the best if it can be successfully developed. If it is not successful, I will definitely not blame you.”
Her Royal Highness spoke in a soft voice, and there was no wit in her words, she just stated the pros and cons in a straightforward manner.Such a pragmatic approach made Han Shang's heart gradually settle down.
Since Her Royal Highness has said so, is it possible that he can really refuse?Han Shang made up his mind and said, "Let your Highness order you."
The princess smiled slightly, and said: "Sending is not counted, we are cooperating. I will not take any money for your pottery. , set up a special glass factory, you can take the post of factory director."
Han Shang's heart turned a thousand times.
It's not that he doesn't want to do things for the princess, it's just that in this way, a large part of his family can be said to be taken away by the princess out of thin air.
The princess said straightforwardly again: "In the future, if it is really made into glass, I will share half of the profit of the glass factory with you. The profit of glass is huge, and the half profit is more than what you can earn by burning pottery for a year. As for the employees who joined my glass factory, I naturally paid for them myself, so you don’t actually suffer.”
This is equivalent to asking this Korean businessman to be her professional manager, and give him 5.00% of the annual profit. The salary of this professional manager is really not low.
But this money will always be given to one person in the end. Han Shang has so many skilled kiln workers under his command, and he himself is a capable and kind person. Li Yu thinks it is okay to give this money to him.
So the meeting came to a successful conclusion. The Korean businessman hurried back and began to discuss the construction of the factory. Li Yu specifically asked him to use the most refractory material to make the kiln, and asked him to get coal for burning. , No charcoal, the temperature of the charcoal is not enough, and it cannot be carried.
Then, she plunged into the big pit of burning glass, and began to desperately recall the chemical knowledge she had learned before.
Just then, a person came back.
This person is Zhongyuan Dianhong, he came back after a long journey, with a big bag in his hand, it seemed that someone was wriggling inside.
This is the third year Li Yu has come to the world of martial arts, and also the third spring she has spent.
In the first spring, she was on the road; in the second spring, she just got rid of Wanmatang, and Yinzhou began to regenerate; and in the third spring...she was expanding the city.
Yes, expand the city.
The common people got the news very quickly. In just one year, Yinzhou City became prosperous, and those policies of Huiming are really eye-catching.As soon as the roads in Yinzhou were unsealed this year, people fleeing into the city continued.
Being a fugitive is really an identity that people love and hate at the same time.

Ma Kongqun regards Yinzhou as the back garden of his own slaves, and the people in the city will hardly do anything with technical content other than gaining ground and importing things that Wanmatang's aunts and aunts like.
There are craftsmen who make iron and weapons, but they are all taken to Wanmatang to work day and night. There are almost no iron shops in the city.
So... Of course there are no craftsmen who can burn ceramics, and there are no such things as kilns.
This year, a large number of fugitives flooded into the city. Many of these fugitives were craftsmen. After they divided their fields, they immediately sold their fields in exchange for capital to open shops in the city.
Because the princess encourages business, there are corresponding policies to benefit the people when opening shops in the city. The procedures are quick and convenient, unlike other places where you have to give money to evil officials to find a way out.
Therefore, just one month after spring, many craftsmen's shops have gathered in the southeast corner of the city. These craftsmen can't afford to rent the shops in the bustling commercial area of East Avenue, so they find a place that is cheaper. A bunch of craftsmen gather together, which is called The southeast corner, which was originally not much to visit, also has some flavor.
A lot of businessmen from all over the world have been established, and they even privately formed groups according to regions, and established many chambers of commerce. It seems that it is really lively.
But before Li Yu started looking for someone, the person came to his door by himself.
Kilns are needed to burn ceramics, and most of the kilns nowadays are built against mountains.And building things on the princess's territory, shouldn't the princess's consent be required?These people are all people who escaped from the oppression of local snakes everywhere, so naturally they can't offend new... local snakes in new places.
Logically speaking, this matter should not be reported to Li Yu's desk, and Zhan Zhao should only need to deal with it. The first second Liu Fang received this incident, she was so blessed that she came directly to see the princess.
Li Yu was very satisfied that he was so smart.After thinking about it for a while, Li Yu agreed to meet these people who wanted to open a kiln in person.
They sent a representative to meet Li Yu.
This person is a businessman, surnamed Han.He made a lot of money in his early years, and did well in Tianshui City, another city in the northwest, but later the youngest son of the family offended the local sect and caused disaster. He ran away with his whole family.
He owns a pottery factory in Tianshui, where he can burn pottery and tiles. Pottery is not very valuable, but the demand is high. Who doesn’t need clay bowls and pots in ordinary households?Therefore, his pottery kiln is not small.
Because he was very nice and was very nice to the workers at home, when he ran away, many loyal servants followed him.
He wanted to find out how to open a pottery kiln through the door, but unexpectedly the princess wanted to meet him in person.
This action made the businessman surnamed Han very uneasy.
The name of Princess Anle was known to many people in the Great Ye Dynasty. When she was exiled in Yinzhou the year before last, many people found out the story of her mother, the enchanting concubine Liu Shi, and told them a lot.
But at that time, when people talked about Princess Anle, they mostly talked about whether she had the same beauty as her mother, which could bring disaster to the country.
But this year is quite different. Princess Anle's powerful methods have spread to all over the world, causing people to have a little fear of this decisive princess.
Of course, Han merchants are also very afraid, or... as long as they are merchants, there is no one who is not afraid of these princes and nobles, not to mention that these princes and nobles still hold real power in their hands.
This morning when he saw the princess, Han Shang changed into neat but plain clothes, and checked his attire carefully to avoid bumping into the princess.
Soon someone came to invite him from the Princess Mansion. With a smile on his face, Han Shang stuffed small red envelopes for those Lingwu guards who came to invite him, and then followed them to the Princess Mansion.
After entering the mansion, his head was lowered, and he didn't even dare to look up. When he entered the princess's study, he immediately knelt down and saluted, and then heard a female voice.
The female voice said: "Get up, give me your seat."
This female voice was very gentle, with the usual indifference of some superiors. It was very pleasant, but to Han Shang's ears, it always felt that there was a majesty that could not be ignored.
Who in this world doesn't know about the fact that the princess destroyed Wanmatang half a year after she came to Yinzhou?Many people who can't see clearly always think that Her Highness the Princess is attached to the vengeful young Fu Hongxue, but Han Shang is a sensible person, and thinks that those fools really can't turn their heads.
If the princess relies on others to remove Wanmatang, then she is just an ordinary person.But look now, where is the vengeful boy now, and where is the princess? If the princess is just attached, then why is everything in Yinzhou City branded with the princess?
How can a woman like her, who holds all the power tightly in her own hands, be underestimated?
Han Shang respectfully thanked him and raised his head respectfully.
The princess is indeed a beauty, and her beauty is indeed the kind of pale and feeble willow that all men in the world like.But her eyes are so calm, so easy, as if nothing can trouble her.
Han Shang didn't understand why the trivial matter of opening a pottery kiln could alarm the princess.
However, the princess didn't play tricks. After Han Shang finished talking about the matter, she told him straightforwardly: "It's okay to open a pottery kiln, but the princess's mansion also wants to open a kiln. I wonder if you are interested?"
Han Shang was startled and asked, "I wonder what kind of kiln His Highness wants to open?"
The princess replied casually: "The glass kiln."
This time, Han Shang was really surprised.
As we all know, although the Great Ye Dynasty also produced glass, most of them were made of imitation jade, and the inside was not very transparent.As far as glass is concerned, the best ones are the transparent glass vessels from the Western Regions. There are various patterns on the beautiful, transparent glass vials, which are really exquisite.
Of course the price is also...
A small glass bottle can be sold for a high price of 100 taels.With such a high price, ordinary people would definitely not be able to afford it, but rich princes and nobles are all after this item.
Han Shang is a businessman who has traveled all over the world and has seen a lot. Naturally, he has seen this kind of glassware, but the Central Plains people have not been able to find the knack of firing transparent glass for so many years. Even if he is a businessman, what idea does he have? ?
Hearing what the princess said at the moment, he was more frightened than pleasantly surprised, because he always felt that the princess didn't understand technology, and he only thought that if they were asked to develop it, they had to develop it, and he didn't care about the hardships involved.
This can't be answered!If he agrees, what will happen if the princess blames him if he can't get anything out at that time!
Thinking so, Han Shang knelt down on the ground again with a plop, and hurriedly confessed that his family could only make pottery, and even porcelain was not good at it. He really didn't know anything about making glass!
Li Yu really couldn't laugh or cry with this habit of kneeling at every turn. Seeing that Han Shang was so frightened, she hurriedly asked Yew Shan to float him up, and then said softly: "Don't be afraid, I have something for this recipe for burning glass." I heard that now I want to set up a factory by myself, but there is a lack of skilled kiln workers. This method is my own idea. It would be the best if it can be successfully developed. If it is not successful, I will definitely not blame you.”
Her Royal Highness spoke in a soft voice, and there was no wit in her words, she just stated the pros and cons in a straightforward manner.Such a pragmatic approach made Han Shang's heart gradually settle down.
Since Her Royal Highness has said so, is it possible that he can really refuse?Han Shang made up his mind and said, "Let your Highness order you."
The princess smiled slightly, and said: "Sending is not counted, we are cooperating. I will not take any money for your pottery. , set up a special glass factory, you can take the post of factory director."
Han Shang's heart turned a thousand times.
It's not that he doesn't want to do things for the princess, it's just that in this way, a large part of his family can be said to be taken away by the princess out of thin air.
The princess said straightforwardly again: "In the future, if it is really made into glass, I will share half of the profit of the glass factory with you. The profit of glass is huge, and the half profit is more than what you can earn by burning pottery for a year. As for the employees who joined my glass factory, I naturally paid for them myself, so you don’t actually suffer.”
This is equivalent to asking this Korean businessman to be her professional manager, and give him 5.00% of the annual profit. The salary of this professional manager is really not low.
But this money will always be given to one person in the end. Han Shang has so many skilled kiln workers under his command, and he himself is a capable and kind person. Li Yu thinks it is okay to give this money to him.
So the meeting came to a successful conclusion. The Korean businessman hurried back and began to discuss the construction of the factory. Li Yu specifically asked him to use the most refractory material to make the kiln, and asked him to get coal for burning. , No charcoal, the temperature of the charcoal is not enough, and it cannot be carried.
Then, she plunged into the big pit of burning glass, and began to desperately recall the chemical knowledge she had learned before.
Just then, a person came back.
This person is Zhongyuan Dianhong, he came back after a long journey, with a big bag in his hand, it seemed that someone was wriggling inside.
