Duan Yunyi thought thoughtfully: "Eunuch Lin is right. Sister, keep it in your collection..."
Lin Duan asked anxiously: "Your Majesty, who actually wrote this calligraphy? I hope that I can conduct a good investigation of this person for Your Majesty. Maybe in the future, there will be a superstar in the literary world of the Great Zhou Dynasty who will be famous throughout the ages!"
Duan Yunxiu said quickly: "I am already inspecting it, so don't bother Xiao Linzi!"
"I dare to accompany you..."
Before Lin Duan could finish speaking, Duan Yunxiu interrupted him.
"Oh, you can't go!"
Lin Duan looked regretful and said with a wry smile: "Your Royal Highness, I am really determined to recruit another talent for the imperial court."
Duan Yunxiu blushed and hummed: "Of course I know that you are loyal, so I disguised myself and used your name first to make friends with him. Therefore, I have full authority to handle this matter and it's none of your business."
.”
Lin Duan:......
Looking at the confused Lin Duan, Duan Yun smiled happily.
Duan Yunyi consoled her, "Don't be impatient, Eunuch Lin. When the imperial sister feels the time is right, you can also use a pseudonym and meet her real master."
Lin Duan immediately kowtowed in ecstasy to thank him, and begged: "Please copy this person's calligraphy, but I don't know how to call him..."
"Skinny gold body." Duan Yunyi said.
"Skinny gold body? That's quite appropriate! I wish His Highness to recruit good talents as soon as possible!"
After Lin Duan left, Duan Yunxiu put away Liang Xiao's calligraphy and was very happy.
"It turns out it can be so valuable."
"Sister, you think of Liang Xiao too well, remember to be on guard against others." Duan Yunyi said worriedly.
"I know~" Duan Yunxiu launched another coquettish offensive against his sister.
Duan Yunyi had no choice but to settle for the next best thing and said, "No matter what, let Feiyun protect you personally. Sister, I believe in your vision."
"Don't worry, sister! Sister, I can deceive him with a little trick~" Duan Yunxiu looked happy.
"Come here?" Duan Yunyi suddenly couldn't laugh or cry.
Only then did Duan Yunxiu realize that he had spilled the beans. His face turned red and he hesitated: "Sister, I can tell at a glance that he is a soft-spoken person rather than a tough one. He must be sincere and good at guiding him step by step.
Serving the country will also give him the opportunity to glorify the Liang family."
Duan Yunyi just nodded silently and sighed quietly after watching Duan Yunxiu "escape" from the imperial study.
"This girl has been impressed by Liang Xiao's talent. What if she falls into trouble? General Chaoqi intends to recruit him as his grandson-in-law, so Qin Xue will naturally be his fiancée..."
Feiyun reminded: "If your majesty is worried that the princess will be abducted by this kid, why not wait for your majesty's private visit in the future and go and get this kid in person?"
Duan Yunyi thought thoughtfully: "That's a way."
Early the next morning, Liang Xiao took a stack of drawings and rushed all the way to a workshop in the city that specialized in making utensils.
This workshop belongs to the Dingguo Marquis Mansion.
The shopkeeper looked at a drawing provided by Liang Xiao and frowned: "What kind of tool is this? I have never seen it before. What do you want to use it for?"
"Doing business." Liang Xiao replied.
The shopkeeper stared at Liang Xiao and asked, "I can't tell you what kind of business you are doing, right?"
Seeing Liang Xiao nodding, the shopkeeper said seriously: "Sorry, according to the rules of our Dingguohou Mansion, we do not do any business with unknown origins and destinations. You can go find someone else!"
Liang Xiao had no choice but to leave the workshop.
Walking out of the workshop gate, before Liang Xiao had even taken a few steps, he heard the shopkeeper calling from behind him: "Master Liang, please stay!"
Liang Xiao turned around in confusion and saw the shopkeeper running towards him quickly, the fat on his face trembling, and invited Liang Xiao back to the workshop again.
"Master Liang, we have done this business!"
Liang Xiao smiled and said, "Why do you want to do it again?"
The shopkeeper said: "I saw Mr. Liang's name, and suddenly I remembered that you are a descendant of Marquis Lanling! We Marquis of Dingguo have always respected Marquis Lanling for his righteous sacrifice for the country, so there is no problem in providing this convenience!"
Liang Xiao remembered that Dingguo Hou Mansion was also a family of generals and should be more reliable than other merchants, so he handed over all the drawings.
"Ten copies of each set will be customized. How long will it take to deliver the goods?"
The shopkeeper replied: "The fastest is seven days, the slowest is ten days!"
The two negotiated on the spot, Liang Xiao delivered two hundred taels of silver, and the two parties signed a written agreement.
After Liang Xiao left, the shopkeeper ran to the backyard with the receipt.
It turned out that Mu Qinxue happened to come to inspect the workshop today.
"Please remember this from now on. Just accept his orders and don't refuse them."
The shopkeeper nodded like a chicken pecking at rice: "I understand, I am a well-known 'business genius' in the city. He has lost thousands of taels in two years, and he came to our Dingguo Marquis Mansion to do business.
Send us money!"
Mu Qinxue glanced at the shopkeeper coldly and did not explain. She just took the drawing and looked at it carefully, with a puzzled look on her face: "What is he going to use this kind of equipment for?"
"Miss, even the youngest can't understand!" the shopkeeper laughed dryly.
Mu Qinxue had no choice but to ask the shopkeeper to make arrangements immediately before returning home.
"Let him do whatever he wants, I have plenty of money~"
When Liang Xiao returned home, he found that his grandma had not gone out to do odd jobs anymore, and he was relieved.
"What are your plans for the future, brother?" Jiang Fuxue asked with concern.
"If you continue doing business, you will definitely make a lot of money this time! I just spent two hundred taels to customize sugar-making equipment. I will take advantage of the autumn harvest and use the remaining capital to hire workers and purchase sugar cane."
Liang Xiao said with confidence.
Jiang Fuxue and Grandma were startled, and Grandma was even more hesitant to speak.
He just "picked up" five hundred taels of silver from Lin Duan yesterday, and spent two hundred taels today?
Jiang Fuxue came back to her senses and said decisively: "Xue'er believes that brother will definitely succeed! Then Xue'er will also help brother with some work~"
"Old slave, let's do something together." Grandma expressed her position quickly.
"No need!" Liang Xiao smiled and touched Jiang Fuxue's little head and said, "I will recruit a lot of workers. Xue'er is still young and grandma is old. Just leave these things to the workers, and they will also have the opportunity to make money.
"
The young and old had no choice but to agree, and they couldn't help but worry: Why is he still spending money so lavishly as before? If he still fails this time, I'm afraid he will really fall into despair...
Liang Xiao has always been good at observing people's words and emotions, so the two people's thoughts cannot be hidden from him, but he doesn't have any clues.
He and Jiang Fuxue are more like brothers and sisters. Grandma serves Jiang Fuxue wholeheartedly. In this capital, they are the only two who treat her wholeheartedly.
As long as you make a career, everything else is vain!
"Where is Liang Xiao!"
While the three of them were talking, a shout came from outside.
Liang Xiao was confused and immediately went out. Jiang Fuxue quickly followed behind.
Liang Mansion is right on the street, and people usually come and go, but today thousands of people from the capital gathered at the door.
On the official road at the gate of Liang Mansion, there was a very luxurious motorcade.
