The first thousand one hundred and ninety-six chapters in the scheme?
ps: Not much to say, three updates today, please vote for me.
Zhao Kai left, but what was left behind was confusion and hesitation.
At the beginning of the matter, the ministers in the palace knew very well that Hu Yi's purpose of standing up was to seize the financial power of the Ordnance Supervisor. However, as the matter progressed, the situation became extremely complicated. Li Qi, Li Gang, etc.
People's fast-paced debate muddied the whole thing. Although they successfully got a share of the military weapons inspection, except for Qin Hui, Zheng Yi and other quick-thinking people in the palace, most of the ministers did not react to this situation.
In the end, it is good or bad for them.
They need enough time to digest such a large amount of information.
However, this is also because the people standing here are all newcomers. If it were the era of the Six Thieves, they would quickly grasp some key points and quickly judge what they can get and what they can get with transparent finances.
What to lose.
As soon as the morning session ended, Li Qi tossed his robe and strode out, acting very angry, as if he had suffered a great loss. The ministers standing behind gave way one after another. No one wanted to offend this person again at this time.
Ranked in the first rank of the imperial court.
"Young Master, you are really good at predicting things!"
Li Qi was the first minister to leave, while Qin Hui was the last to come out. An official beside him said with a smile of victory.
Qin Hui looked at Li Qi's back from afar, with a hint of contemplation in his eyes, and said lightly: "I am by no means a winner, and he is not necessarily a loser. Anyone who underestimates him has tasted the bitter pill. This water is really getting worse."
It's getting muddier." At the end of his sentence, there was a trace of confusion in his eyes.
.......
"Privy Envoy, Privy Envoy, please stay."
Li Qi had just left the palace and was about to get on the carriage when he suddenly heard someone calling him from behind. When he turned around, he saw Zheng Yi running towards him, so he stopped, and when Zheng Yi came to him, he asked: "Is the Third Secretary there?
What's the matter?" His tone was very harsh.
Zheng Yi gasped slightly and said, "What happened today has nothing to do with me."
Even though he has entered an official career, his gentlemanly character has never changed. His speech is simple and clear. He never plays with what is available and what is not. This is the difference between him and hypocrites like Song Yuchen.
Li Qi looked at him suspiciously and asked, "Don't you, the Third Division, be jealous of our weapons supervisor?"
Zheng Yi nodded and said: "Yes, I really want to get the support of your weapons supervisor, but I will not use this method. Even if I have to use it, I will discuss it with you in advance and try to come up with a mutually beneficial way.
.”
Obviously, he also saw that there was someone behind the scenes.
"Yeah?"
Zheng Yi nodded and said, "I think this is because someone is deliberately trying to sow discord between you and me."
"who?"
"I don't know that."
"But it's also possible that you are deliberately provoking it."
Zheng Yi was stunned and said: "You are not wrong to think so. Whether you believe it or not, I have already said what I want to say."
Li Qi smiled strangely. He suddenly looked back and said, "If there is nothing else, I will leave first."
Zheng Yigong raised his hand.
Li Qi got on the carriage and drove away.
Zheng Yi looked at the carriage going away and sighed softly. Suddenly, a clear voice sounded from the side, "Why are you sighing, brother?"
Zheng Yi was slightly startled. He turned around and saw a small man standing next to him. He was not Bai Qiannuo. He reluctantly showed a smile and said, "It's Qiniang!"
Bai Qiannuo smiled slightly and said, "If I guessed correctly, you were just explaining to the Privy Councilor."
Zheng Yi sighed: "Our Zheng family has no intention of becoming an enemy of the Privy Councilor."
The reason he explained to Li Qi was all for the sake of the Zheng family, and he didn't want to create such a powerful enemy for the Zheng family.
Bai Qiannuo said: "But the Privy Councilor didn't believe it."
Zheng Yi frowned and said, "Do you know something?"
Bai Qiannuo smiled softly.
Zheng Yidao: "Please ask the economic envoy to give me some advice."
Bai Qian shook her head and said: "Second brother, you are still too much of a gentleman. After this argument, you are still the biggest victim. Although you have obtained 30% of the weapons supervisor's financial rights, you will be walking on thin ice in the future.
There can be no mistakes. If this was arranged by you, then there is nothing wrong with the Privy Councilor doing this. But if it was not arranged by you, then the Privy Councilor would have done you terrible harm. If you were allowed to continue to explain, wouldn’t he have to explain to you again?
You apologize."
Zheng Yi suddenly realized it, patted his forehead, and said with a wry smile: "I see." After saying that, he added: "But it doesn't matter, I have never wanted to take advantage of my position to seek personal gain. This is good, it can remind me of the three divisions from time to time.
people."
Bai Qiannuo smiled and remained silent.
Zheng Yi said again: "Qiniang, you are the one who knows the Privy Councilor best!"
Bai Qiannuo stopped her smile and said calmly: "If I understood him, would our Bai family still end up like this?"
Zheng Yi scratched his neck gently and said, "Did I say the wrong thing?"
Bai Qiannuo nodded slightly and said, "I'll take my leave first." After saying that, she got on the carriage and left.
"Oh! It seems I really said the wrong thing."
Zheng Yi looked sideways at the sky, shook his head with a wry smile, and turned to leave.
...
After leaving the palace, Li Qi came to the glass workshop.
Zheng Quan was a little surprised when he saw Li Qi arriving suddenly, and hurried to his office.
"The common people have seen the adults."
Li Qi hummed and said, "I asked Ma Qiao to send you the drawings a few days ago. Are you sure you can complete this task?"
Zheng Quan said hurriedly: "Sir, please rest assured. Now that the workshop has been expanded, this task is nothing. It will be completed on time. Tomorrow, I will have someone send the sample to you."
Li Qi smiled and nodded: "That's good, that's good."
Zheng Quan asked curiously: "Sir, please forgive me for asking, what are the items on the drawings used for?" He is the chief engineer, and of course he hopes that Li Qi can use the drawings so that he will also make them.
At the same time, they should pay attention to some aspects, and if it is an unconventional item, they do not need to spend time exploring how to make it more commercially.
Li Qi also understood this truth and said truthfully: "On August 15th, I will have a cooking competition with the owner of Jinlou. These will be used in my dishes. If you have time, you can make more for spare.
good."
Zheng Quan nodded and said: "Yes, I understand."
Li Qi added: "I remember a few days ago, I mentioned that this workshop might be merged into the Ordnance Supervision, so that you can be prepared."
Zheng Quandao: "Yes, I remember."
Li Qidao: "It's not necessary now. In a few days, I will transfer a sum of money to increase the scale of the workshop, but no matter what, you must be fully prepared. This amazing work is about to be released.
"
"Yes. The villain has remembered it."
...
After coming out of the workshop, Li Qi went to the Ordnance Supervision again and told Yu Qi about the division of the weapons superintendent's finances into three. Yu Qi was shocked after hearing this. What surprised him was not the nature of the matter, but the
Li Qi actually agreed so easily. You must know that Li Qi usually calculates accounts carefully.
But Li Qi soon let Yu Qi experience his careful calculation. He ordered Yu Qi to quickly implement all the plans for the next one or two years, and first secure the money, and then asked them to calculate all the specific accounts.
Submit it to the emperor. In this way, the weapons inspector's liquidity will be very considerable, at least in the next one or two years.
In the next few days, Li Qi began to focus on the competition with Zhang Chun'er, and kept traveling with Wu Xiaoliu in various markets. From time to time, he would disappear for a whole day. As usual, the confidentiality was kept very tight.
However, news of the competition between Li Qi and Zhang Chun'er has also spread. This is very exciting news. The King of Golden Knife Chefs vs. the No. 1 Chef in the Song Dynasty. This gimmick is already attractive enough.
August 15th this year is destined to be particularly different because of this competition.
After three days of busy work, Mrs. Bai suddenly sent someone to send a message asking him to go to the Bai Mansion tomorrow. Li Qixun thought that he had been busy researching new dishes these past few days and did not even visit his father-in-law. This was really wrong. Of course,
His visit was to go to Bai Mansion to ask for news. He had not seen Bai Shizhong yet because Liu Yunxi had repeatedly warned that Bai Shizhong's emotions must be taken care of during the treatment. If Bai Shizhong was allowed to see him,
, I guess I was so angry that I hiccupped.
Early the next morning, Li Qi came to Baifu with the century-old mountain ginseng that Pu Zhiqian sent last time.
Mrs. Bai was already waiting in the front yard. When she saw Li Qi coming, she stretched out her hand and said, "Sit down."
Li Qi nodded, sat opposite Mrs. Bai, and said, "How is my father-in-law doing now?"
Mrs. Bai smiled and said: "The medical skills of this goddess doctor are truly well-deserved. Now the old man can get out of bed and walk with the help of others."
"That's good, that's good." Li Qi also breathed a sigh of relief. If Bai Shizhong really died because of this, it would definitely not be good news for him and Bai Qiannuo. He put the wild ginseng on the table again and said
: "This is the wild ginseng that the Korean envoy came to give me last time. It is said to be a century-old wild ginseng. I hope it will be helpful to my father-in-law."
"Thanks."
Mrs. Bai nodded lightly and said with a smile: "And what you obtained from Liu Shiniang for our Bai family last time. In fact, the dowries of Qiniang and I are nothing. The key is the old man's calligraphy and paintings, which are the old man's treasure.
, I also wanted Liu Shiniang to be accommodating, but I didn’t expect you had already thought of this."
Li Qi chuckled: "Mother-in-law already knows."
Mrs. Bai also stopped by and knew what she was thinking, and said: "I came to you today mainly because I hope you can replace our Bai family to discuss donations with Gao Yanei. Although Liu Shiniang is still treating the old man,
But the old man is out of danger, and I have great confidence in Liu Shiniang, so I don't want to delay it anymore, Gao Yanei will come to the door later."
Li Qi was surprised: "So fast."
Mrs. Bai nodded and said: "It's better to get it done as soon as possible. Besides, it won't be done in a day or two. But before that, there is one more thing I want to tell you."
Li Qi frowned and said, "What's the matter?"
Mrs. Bai said: "Qiniang has already told me about your weapons inspection a few days ago." At this point, she paused and said with a hint of worry: "You have fallen into Qin Hui's scheme."
