Chapter 236

“…… Now, I have prepared a series of perfumes and the latest soaps as a tribute. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info But I think it seems to be a little thin.,Today I came to visit Mei'er.,Suddenly I thought of your tea.。 ”

When Wu Mei'er heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up. "Brother He, what do you mean, you want me to prepare some special tea leaves and contribute them to the court as a tribute to Ruolan County?"

"Yes, I don't know what you think, Mei'er?" He Jinghui nodded, looking at Wu Mei'er with anticipation.

Wu Mei'er saw He Jingxuan's honest and eager handsome face, and after a little consideration, she nodded. "Okay."

"That's great, thank you Mei'er, believe me, as long as our things are put on the court, as long as Her Majesty the Empress can see it, then our products will definitely be famous all over the world." He Jinghui clapped his hands excitedly and smiled happily.

Wu Mei'er looked at him with beautiful eyes and smiled. “…… I believe that Brother He, your attitude towards people and your work, even if you don't have this opportunity, you will be able to become famous all over the world one day. ”

"Haha, Mei'er, you are too complimentary, thank you for your auspicious words, but I think it is better to do things in a high-profile manner and be a low-key person, if you are too high-profile, it is easy to attract people's jealousy."

"Do things in a high-profile manner and be a low-key person...... Wu Meier chewed on this sentence, and her face couldn't help but show a look of deep thought. In his heart, he couldn't help but set off a stormy wave, and subconsciously raised his autumn eyes and glanced at He Jinghui.

"Brother He's words are very reasonable, I can't imagine that Brother He, you, can see it more clearly than most people in the world."

He Jinghui raised his eyebrows and laughed. "Mei'er, don't praise me so much, I'm easy to be proud."

"Brother He, you are not the kind of person who is easy to be proud." Wu Meier said with a smile.

The two began to discuss what kind of tea to use as tribute, and in the end, Wu Meier picked three kinds of flower tea, and some tea leaves from the descendants of the old tea trees in the Western Regions transplanted to Ruolan County as tribute.

After getting Wu Meier's promise, he chatted happily with Wu Meier, and it was not until after lunch that He Jinghui said goodbye.

Wu Meier personally sent her to the gate of the Wu Mansion, looking at He Jingxuan's distant back, her eyes overflowed with a faint reluctance and longing.

"Miss, it's raining again, go back quickly, your body is not fully well, the master has repeatedly told you to have a good rest, don't get caught in the cold again." When Huang Li saw Wu Mei'er's appearance, she sighed in her heart and persuaded in a low voice.

"Okay, let's go back...... By the way, Huang Li, remember to hurry up and finish the things I entrusted you in a while, don't let Brother He wait for him. ”

"Okay miss, you just have to rest assured, I'll do it in a while, go in quickly." Huang Li nodded helplessly, and secretly pouted, that is, He Jingxuan's matter, his own young lady would be so concerned and caring.

#####

Back in her boudoir, Wu Mei'er looked at the familiar furnishings in the house, and couldn't help but think of the unpleasant conversation between father and daughter when her father came to visit her just after returning to the house a few days ago.

What kind of things were in the treasure box of the Wu family, my father refused to say anything, but just told himself not to pay attention to this matter, and to pay attention to his own safety.

For Boss Wu's attitude, Wu Meier is really helpless, but she is helpless, after all, the secret of the Wu family is not just a treasure box......

Two days, just two days later, the perfume collection, created specifically for tribute, features more delicate porcelain bottles, and soaps that have been filtered more delicately and are as white as snow, with a faint milky and floral scent.

Of course, the best flower tea and tea sent by Wu Meier are also on He Zaixu's desk.

Even if it was pouring rain outside, it was difficult to stop He Zaixu's inner relaxation and happiness. He opened the extremely beautifully shaped boxes, admired the elegant and pleasing tribute, nodded with satisfaction, and looked up at his son, who could not read the Four Books and the Five Classics.

Although he is not a reading seed, he used to be very idle, but now he Zaixu feels that his son has really grown up, sensible, behaves moderately, is humble and polite, and can share his father's worries.

"With these things from you, my father can finally rest assured, and the problem of our Ruolan County's tribute to the court can be regarded as solved." He Zaixu carefully closed the beautifully decorated boxes one by one and nodded with satisfaction.

A thunderbolt suddenly flashed in the sky, followed by a deafening thunderclap, interrupting the warmth between father and son.

The worry on He Zaixu's face was even worse, and he strode to the door of the study, opened the door, although there was an eaves barrier, but there was still a lot of rain, scattered into the study with the strong wind.

"Father, hurry up and enter the house, it's raining too much......" He Jinghui was startled by his father's actions, and hurriedly rushed forward and closed the door of the study, which blocked the strong wind and rain from the door.

"The rain is getting heavier day by day. It seems that this year's disaster is much bigger than in previous years. He Zaixu walked around the study with his hands a little anxious.

"Father, this is a natural disaster, not a man-made disaster, no one can do anything about such a thing, all we can do now in Ruolan County is to reduce and prevent disasters." He Jinghui saw that this father, who was not yet forty years old, but had silver threads on his temples, couldn't help but feel sour in his heart and persuaded softly.

"Disaster mitigation and prevention?" When He Zaixu heard this, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at He Jinghui in some astonishment. "This disaster prevention can be understood by the father, but what does this disaster reduction mean?"

To tell the truth, in the future, what is disaster reduction and prevention, some people are shouting every day, so these words He Dagongzi just came out of his mouth, but he didn't expect his father to ask like this.

He Jinghui couldn't help but lie in a big groove in his heart, and after a long time of muttering, he explained literally. "Disaster reduction means that when disasters are inevitable, we will try to minimize the damage caused by disasters to people's production and life."

"Disaster reduction, this statement is reasonable, alas...... The old man was willing to cry for the people of Ruolan, but the people ...... "After He Zaixu heard this, his face did not see any joy, but was full of melancholy.

He Zaixu said to himself: "Ruolan County's river defense has not improved in recent years, and when the predecessor was in office, corruption was very heavy, and there was almost no maintenance of the river defense that should have been done. Since the old man took office, although he has done a lot of work, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice......"

"Father, are you worried about the floods in Ruolan County?" He Jinghui had only heard about it from his mother before, but during this period of heavy rain, the water level rose sharply, and it seemed that the previous Yin County Order had embezzled all the livelihood projects in Ruolan County that had been delayed.

I'm afraid that the previous warning is really likely to come true.

"Yes, and the most vulnerable place in our Ruolan County is the area of Xuzhen, where the terrain is gentle and low-lying, and it used to suffer from floods, and then, at the beginning of the establishment of this dynasty, a solid Xuzhen embankment was built on the south side of the Longjiang River in the north of Xuzhen, which finally made Xuzhen no longer suffer from flooding."

"It's just that the Xu Zhen Dike has been going through the years for a long time, and now, it is already old, and my father has been checked in the past, if this year's water potential, and then it rises a zhang, Xu Zhen Dike is likely to collapse, and at that time, more than 300 households in Xu Town, more than 1,000 people, I am afraid that it will be difficult to escape the doom."

He Jinghui couldn't help but gasp, damn, more than a thousand people, this is not a small number, if such a thing really happens, my father can't say that he can't keep his official position, I'm afraid that the whole family will be collectively unlucky.

"Father, what then?" He Jinghui smashed his mouth, looked at his worried father in front of him and asked. I'm really about to beep the dog in my heart, how long has Daddy been in power? Why are there one after another, could it be that when I first entered the county government that day, I saw Wangcai defecating in the garden and did not stop it, which caused God's anger?
