Wang Xuexue hesitated for a while, but still didn't take out the salt field. Since these are enough, let's leave something for their envoy.

It's not easy for their little assassins, they do their best for Jiaozhou, even Wu Chengsi feels that he has emptied his family, and they also feel sorry for their assassins.

Wu Chengsi did what he said, even though Luo Shixing's memorandum hadn't been delivered yet, he had already started connecting with his cronies.

Of course, it didn't take much. He would go out to drink flowers and wine or attend banquets every day. During the banquet, he talked about these things, and focused on the glass.

Sure enough, everyone was very interested and asked him one after another: "Can glass be brought in? And mirrors."

The mirror was given to Wu Zhao before. On Princess Taiping's birthday, Luo Shixing also gave some of the glass, so that Princess Taiping could be inlaid in the small flower hall of the princess mansion, and everyone who came and went could see it.

At the beginning, everyone was not used to it, but after feeling the light from the glass, they were all moved.

It's a pity that this thing is like a mirror, and you can't buy it if you want to buy it. Someone asked, and the team who helped transport it told everyone with a wry smile that the transported glass was damaged more than the intact one. I have to lose money, so I have no such plan recently.

Now that I heard that the port can be shipped, everyone is interested.

With the letter written by Luo Shixing, Wu Chengsi certainly has the confidence to reply everyone.

All of a sudden, the entire aristocratic class in Luoyang was discussing when the Jiaozhou port would be built.

Women want mirrors, men want glass in their study.

These discussions naturally spread to the palace. Wu Zhao naturally knew that Jiaozhou sent someone to contact the Cheng family and then Wu Chengsi, but she was too lazy to care about these things, so she couldn't help calling Wu Chengsi over and asked: "Where did you hear about the construction of a port in Jiaozhou?"

Wu Chengsi knew a lot about his aunt's mind, so he immediately sent Luo Shixing's letter.

Wu Zhao took it over and took a look. Naturally, her eyes were different from those of the people below, and she saw the word "salt" at a glance.

This is a bit interesting: "How much salt is produced in Jiaozhou?"

Wu Chengsi was stunned, how could he know, his focus was on the glass.

Wu Zhao took a look at this disappointing nephew, and simply recruited Wang Xuexue.

Wang Xuexue never thought in his life that he would be able to step into Ziwei City one day. When he came in, his palms were sweaty, and he didn't dare to look up at the Queen Mother, and his voice trembled when he answered questions.

Wu Zhao didn't think there was anything wrong with it, it was really normal, even when the governor of Yizhou had an audience with him.

Fortunately, Wang Xuexue still remembered his responsibilities, and immediately said after hearing the Queen Mother's question: "The output depends on the manpower, as long as there are enough people, we can open it casually."

After finishing speaking, Wang Xuexue was also a little uneasy. Is this too exaggerated?

But when he thought of the entrustment he had given him by the envoy and Sima before he left, he felt relieved again, anyway, these two would always help him out.

Wu Zhao was obviously a little surprised, but what surprised Wang Xuexue was that the queen mother knew the details of the salt factory very well.

She even asked, "What's the quality of the salt?"

Someone finally saw the samples brought by Wang Xuexue. You must know that they were worried that Wu Chengsi would not believe it, so they wanted to show it to Wu Chengsi. However, it turned out that when Wu Chengsi heard that the glass could be shipped out, he immediately Agreed, there is no need for this sample at all.

He took out a glass jar, which was not big, and contained clean, white fine salt, which looked pleasing to the eye from a distance.

Wu Zhao held it in her hand and looked down, a little surprised. It's not that she doesn't know about sea salt. Salt belongs to the lifeblood of the country. It's impossible for her not to pay attention. She didn't expect that the quality of sea salt seems to be no worse than well salt, or even better. .

Wu Zhao asked some other details.

Wang Xuexue was almost sweating when he was asked, because he didn't know a lot of things.

Wanting to exaggerate but dare not, Wu Zhao's eyes are too sharp, it seems that there is nothing to hide in front of her. In the end, he can only tell the truth, and then take the opportunity to pull out a piece of magic from his sleeve. The scorpion said: "This is what Jun Lin asked his officials to give to the Queen of Heaven and the princess before his departure."

Over the years, countless people gave Wu Zhao things, but every time Luo Shixing gave them special things, not to mention expensive, they were clever, and Wu Zhao liked them very much every time.

But this time, there are obviously not so many bells and whistles. Inside are a few deed papers. When you pick it up, you can see that it is a salt field, and the annual dividend is written on it.

Luo Shixing didn't explain to Wu Zhao why there was only dividends, he thought Wu Zhao should understand.

But Wu Zhao obviously didn't expect Luo Shixing to give this kind of thing, and this kind of deed paper full of copper smell didn't fit Luo Shixing's temperament.

You must know that Luo Shixing is now in the mouths of Luoyang people, that is the reincarnation of Wenquxing, with good literary talent, good aesthetics, cleverness and whimsy.

Wang Wenxue smiled shyly: "The envoy said, this is money for the Queen of Heaven and the princess. Thanks to the Queen of Heaven and the princess for taking care of them for a long time, Jiaozhou was poor in the past and had nothing to sell. Now I finally have something to give."

Wu Zhao smiled slightly: "He's having a hard time, so there's no need to be like this."

Wu Zhao didn't defend Luo Shixing for the sake of making money for him. In fact, Wu Zhao didn't even think about Luo Shixing's money.

Luo Shixing made a lot of money in Jiaozhou's eyes, but in Wu Zhao's eyes, it was just a small business. Her annual makeup money was more than Luo Shixing's earned in these years.

Her defense of Luo Shixing was just because what Luo Shixing did was in line with her wishes.

Wang Xuexue said sincerely: "The envoy said that knowing the Queen of Heaven is not lacking in such things, but he must not be unconscionable."

Wu Zhao was really happy, she did not misunderstand the person this time, she did not lack these things, but Luo Shixing's difficult but somewhat profitable business was sent to her and Taiping, this kind of heart is the most important thing of.

And she knew very well that Luo Shixing sent Wang Xuexue here to reduce some obstacles, and he never thought that his subordinates could still enter the palace. Those words should be what he said on weekdays, which shows that he is pure and kind.

Wu Zhao faintly recalled that side back then, when the little man's eyes were as clean as springs in the mountains, free from dust, after all these years, it seemed that he was still the same.

She asked some more about the port, and Wang Xuexue was very well prepared. Of course, this was originally used to lobby Wu Chengsi, but Wu Chengsi didn't use him to lobby, so now I have to report to Wu Chengsi in another way Zhao.

After finishing speaking, Wu Zhao was noncommittal, but said, "Go back and ask Luo Shixing to write a memorial."

After all, Wang Xuexue had limited vision and didn't understand Wu Zhao's meaning, thinking that the Queen Mother disagreed, so he was dejected when he left the palace.

Wu Chengsi came out with him, and after he came out, he said: "Auntie doesn't value what you said, you go back and tell Emissary Luo that, he will understand."

The focus of lobbying Wu Chengsi was profit, but Wu Zhao didn't lack that little money, so naturally it wasn't enough.

Wang Xuexue didn't understand the key points, but he remembered Wu Chengsi's reminder, and he said gratefully, "Thank you, Nayan, for your point."

Since the other party sincerely helped, the Yantian deed paper in his hand was given away in a reasonable manner.

He originally wanted to save Luo Shixing, but when he came, Luo Shixing emphasized that he should give it away, and if there is not enough money, write to him, and don't be greedy for petty gains at this time.

Wu Chengsi didn't expect that he also had a salt field. He knew that the salt field had been opened now, and if Jiaozhou could sell the salt, then it would be a harvest that guaranteed the harvest during drought and flood.

Luo Shixing's work is really generous, and his family background is really extraordinary, much better than those from small or poor families.

However, in fact, Luo Shixing is at most from a well-to-do family, and he is not from a family at all. However, the three became a tiger. The big men around him said he was, and the correspondence with his family also said the same, and the Neihuang Luo family also recognized it. He, as if he really came from an aristocratic family.

As soon as Wu Chengsi was happy, he personally sent Wang Xuexue away from Luoyang.

When Wang Xuexue left, he was really relieved, deeply feeling that it was not easy to get along in Luoyang. If it weren't for the face of his family envoy, he might have been questioned long ago.

Even if no one reminded him, he still knew that he did not perform very well when he met the queen mother. Fortunately, he could learn the tongue and learned Luo Shixing's words to please the queen mother.

Wang Wenxue hurried back to Jiaozhou and went to report immediately.

Luo Shixing was dumbfounded when he heard that the Queen Mother had seen him. Although he had prepared a gift for the Queen Mother, what he was thinking at the time was to pass it to Princess Taiping through Wu Chengsi, and then let Princess Taiping give it to Wu Zhao.

It was precisely because of this that he did not divide the salt fields for the queen mother and princess. Anyway, there were only so many, and Wu Zhao could give his daughter as much as he wanted at that time.

Of course, in fact, Luo Shixing couldn't figure out how much to give, so he might as well let the queen mother divide it herself.

He never expected Wu Chengsi to work so hard, especially because the reason for his hard work was to install the glass windows, so he couldn't laugh or cry immediately.

When Wang Wenxue said that Wu Zhao asked him to write the memorial, Luo Shixing's eyes lit up instantly, and he turned to look at Cheng Jingwei.

Cheng Jingwei also nodded with a smile and said, "I'm [-]% sure about this matter."

Being willing to let Luo Shixing write the memorabilia is meant for investigation. As long as Luo Shixing doesn't write too far, it is basically the same.

Luo Shixing was also gearing up for it. In fact, he had already written a memorial before, but that memorial was for Zhongshu Sheng, which had a different standpoint. It was a different matter from showing the Queen Mother.

Showing to the Ministry of Education should let them see that Jiaozhou can pay more taxes, while showing to the Queen Mother should focus on the future.

The Empress Dowager would not pay attention to such a small matter as taxation. She has a big heart, otherwise she wouldn't be staring at Tubo every day.

Luo Shixing was originally cautious, and would not bring up anything he was not [-]% sure about, but this time...he decided to write down all his thoughts after thinking about it.

In this way, the empress dowager can be avoided as much as possible in the future. The most fearful thing for the officials in the frontier is to have misunderstandings with the superiors, especially in Jiaozhou, which is more sensitive.

In addition to exaggerating his ideas a little more, bragging, who wouldn't?

So when Wu Zhao received Luo Shixing's memorial, he opened it and was overwhelmed by Luo Shixing's thoughts.
