In the eighth year of Wude, the third day of the January lunar month.

Early in the morning, Wang ran back to Hyundai and ordered a lot of things online. In addition to the ten hot air balloons and more than a dozen operating manuals that Li Yuan asked for, Wang also ordered ten tons of liquid fuel, and directly cleared all the funds for reselling antiques during this period before he stopped.

After eating, Wang took Ma Zhou and Zhang Qi to the Wei River for inspection. Today is the first day of construction. Wang Ye personally asked the foreman to personally explain the foreman to the foreman to prevent the foreman from directly following the inherent thinking and not meeting the standards in Wang Ye’s mind.

Nowadays, the soap workshop and perfume workshop in the workshop area are being produced in a large scale in an orderly manner. The soap and perfume are scrambled to be taken away by several major families every day. There is never much inventory in the warehouse. I am so happy that King Li Er and Wang Ye of Qin count the money and have cramps in their hands.

The glass and mirror workshop under construction has been unable to start construction due to raw material problems. The main raw materials of glass are: quartz sand, borax, boric acid, barite, barium carbonate, limestone, feldspar, soda ash, etc. The most important quartz sand is mainly distributed in Fujian, Guangdong, southern Guangxi and northwestern Hainan. Some mining areas are also far away in the coastal areas of northeast Shandong and far from Chang'an.

It is because of these glass workshops that Wang Ye was sucked by Li Yuan several times in the past two days. The main reason is that Li Yuan saw that soap and perfume were making money every day, but the most profitable glass workshop had not been produced for a long time. Compared with the two, he naturally felt unhappy.

Wang Ye could only inform him of the distribution and transportation of raw materials, and once suggested that the workshop be placed in coastal areas to reduce transportation costs, but Li Yuanyi refused it righteously, mainly because he was afraid that the emperor would be far away by the time the sky was high and the emperor would become the cash machine for some corrupt officials.

In the end, I had to suffer a few miners from the Ministry of Works, and personally led a thousand miners to the sea along the Yellow River on more than 20 large ships and headed south to mine.

On the arena, Wang Ye and the other two, who had just finished watching the river widening work, came to the construction site with a chat and a smile, but were frightened by the two people who suddenly appeared in front of them.

There is nothing else, mainly because King Li Yuanji of Qi and Minister of Works Dugu Huaien of the Ministry of Works were whispering to the construction site. The two of them were grinding their ears, and even Wang Ye and the other three were already standing behind them without even realizing it.

Dugu Huaien said: "Your Highness doesn't know that the method of brewing fine wine is said to be the dowry of Miss Xiaoyu. At that time, it will definitely become the biggest investment in Duke Lu's Mansion. Cheng Yaojin is not stingy. You also know that if you don't have oil and salt in it, you won't be afraid of boiling water. Your Highness should think twice."

King Li Yuanji of Qi snorted coldly and said, "Isn't it just a dowry? If it weren't for the fact that Wang Ye was deeply favored by his father and would have become the girl Qingcheng's heart, I would have taken action to snatch it, so why would this be the worst way forward?"

Ma Zhou, who was beside Wang Ye, twitched his eyes and looked at Wang Ye carefully. When he saw his calm face, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He quickly pretended that his throat was itchy and gently "coughed" at the two of them.

The two of them who heard Ma Zhou's voice turned around and looked at King Qi with a smile on their faces. Instead, they spoke first: "Hehe, Your Highness King Qi and Lord Dugu are so happy. I will run here to have a breath in the winter!"

Dugu Huaien was shocked. After all, Wang Ye’s status is different now. Not only did he be called brothers and brothers with King Li Er, Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, but he also had Li Yuan’s reliance, and was no match for the stranger who had just returned to the Tang Dynasty a month ago.

He bowed slightly, Dugu Huaien smiled and said, "Hehe, the Lord of the King is here too. It's such a coincidence that I just wanted to take His Highness to the Tingyu Pavilion to ask for a cup of hot tea."

Li Yuanji was extremely embarrassed at this time. He didn't know how much he had just said that the king had heard. However, after all, his identity was here. He smiled and said, "The city lord is also running here for a blowout in the middle of winter. Fortunately, I didn't go to Tingyu Pavilion directly, otherwise I would have missed it."

The king also saw a hint of panic flashing in the eyes of the two of them, and did not point them out, and said with a smile: "The King of Qi was joking. The saint is now seen by the saints and takes it to heart, and always urge me to complete the construction as soon as possible. Now, as soon as the saint left, I asked the villagers to start the construction in full swing. Isn't this a pity, I am naturally going to share the joys and sorrows."

Seeing that the king did not mention the conversation between him and Gu Du Huaien, Li Yuanji secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said politely, "Haha, I heard that the king's city lord loves the people as much as his son, and now he is the magistrate of Jingyang County. I forgot to bring a gift to the door, which is rude."

Wang also replied with a relaxed look on his face: "Hahaha, Your Highness is joking. It's enough for a county magistrate to come and drink with me."

Dugu Huaien, who was standing beside him, saw that the two were talking and laughing, and then said to them with a smile: "That's right, right, I'm going to drink a drink together. Your Highness, the city lord, why not be the Japanese official now, let's go to Yunshui Pavilion in Jingyang County to sit?"

After hearing Dugu Huaien's words, Wang Ye still looked at Li Yuanji with a smile, but did not respond to Dugu Huaien's invitation. For a moment, the atmosphere between the three people dropped to freezing point.

Dugu Huai'en's mouth twitched, and he was about to speak, but Wang Ye reached out to interrupt, so he had to block what he wanted to say and looked at Wang Ye in confusion.

"Mr. Dugu, you go to the Yuge Pavilion with Ma Zhou first. I have something to say to Your Highness." Wang Ye said with no doubt, and then gave a wink at Ma Zhou behind him.

Seeing this, Ma Zhou and Zhang Qiyi went to Tingyu Pavilion with Dugu Huaien on the left and right. During this period, Dugu Huaien wanted to speak several times, but was interrupted by Ma Zhou politely, and even forced him to leave with his body.

Li Yuanji looked at Wang Ye in front of him curiously. Although he was a little angry, he was more curious. After all, this stranger who suddenly appeared is now very popular and is still his future brother-in-law.

Wang Ye took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, lit one himself, threw the cigarette and lighter to Li Yuanji and said, "I'll give it to you if I don't like it, so I'll give it to the emperor. He likes it."

Li Yuanji knew that this thing called cigarettes had the effect of refreshing the mind. Now there are only Li Yuan, Li Er, Qin Qiong and Cheng Yaojin who are unlimited supply. He excitedly pulled out one and compared the cigarettes given by Cheng Yaojin last time, he felt that Wang Ye's pack of cigarettes was better in his mouth, so he put the whole pack of cigarettes into his cuffs.

Seeing that he was not unfamiliar with lighting cigarettes, Wang Ye asked curiously: "Have you smoked?"

Li Yuanji smiled and said, "Well, the first time it was a piece given by Zhijie. I almost choked me to death that time. Later, I got used to it and realized that this cigarette is good, especially when I was thinking about things... Haha, I just went to my father's place to smoke it a few times."

Seeing that he was halfway through his words, Wang Ye changed the subject and was curious, but he couldn't ask again. He took out two packs of cigarettes from his pocket and handed them to him: "It's better not to smoke cigarettes, but seeing how you are like this, it's better to smoke a little less. If you don't have it, come to me for it."

Li Yuanji was not polite, and took the cigarette from Wang Ye's hand and put it into the pocket of his cuffs. He raised his hand and put the lit cigarette in his mouth and took a deep breath. The thick cigarette gushed out of his nose with the heat. It seemed that it was another potential old cigarette gun.

Wang Ye took a puff of cigarette and said, "I know what you have. Don't ask me why I know. In short, I just know. Don't think too much. I just want to tell you that sometimes seeing you may not be true."

After hearing Wang Ye's words, Li Yuanji looked at him in surprise, looking at him with something to ask and say, but those words were blocked and couldn't be said.
