Yan Ming showed a hint of self-mockery and said, "Princess, your words make Yan Ming embarrassed. For the princess, Yan Ming was tempted and tried his best to restrain him. ”

"I'm glad you can say that." Princess Pingyang showed a look of satisfaction on her face and said, "If one day, I am alone again, can you accept my feelings for you?" ”

Yan Ming was silent for a long time, nodded, and said, "Thanks to the princess's wrong love." ”

"I'll wait for you!" Princess Pingyang nodded and said.

The two of them were silent for a long time, and Princess Pingyang took the initiative to sit over, took Yan Ming's hand, and said, "How to do the business of this table and chair?" ”

"Just go with the flow. The princess only needs to be in charge of the general direction, and the rest of the things will be handed over to the person designated by the princess for the old man Lu to make tables and chairs. What we need is mass production. Yan Ming said.

People who think of the whole Han have changed to tables and chairs, and even wardrobes and sofas. Yan Ming knew that this business was definitely not a small deal.

"The most important thing is to find someone who is good at planning and managing economic accounts." Yan Ming said.

"I don't know anyone who manages economic accounts. I still have to look for it. Princess Pingyang paused for a moment and said, "I think you will settle the economic account." ”

Yan Ming smiled: "I can't. This kind of talent, let's slowly find out. By the way, in addition to this table and chair home, I also want to give a paper mill to the princess. ”

"Papermaking? Uncle Tian Wei seems to have built a paper mill. Princess Pingyang said.

"Yes, but the quality of his paper is far inferior to the paper mill I gave you. Moreover, I can tell the princess clearly that my paper mill is going to crush the paper mill of Wu'anhou. Is the princess still willing to take it? Yan Ming said solemnly.

"As long as it's your business, I'm willing to take it. Tian Wei is not our uncle. In the past two years, he has not particularly respected the emperor and me. It would be interesting if it could make him suffer a little. Pingyang said with a smile.

Yan Ming originally thought that it would be difficult to convince Princess Pingyang. Unexpectedly, it was so easy to get the consent of Princess Pingyang.

If Princess Pingyang interferes in the papermaking and destroys Tian Wei's power, it will be even better. After all, Princess Pingyang and Tian Wei are both relatives of the imperial family.

This kind of fighting, so that they compete with each other, is evenly matched.

The two are studying future cooperation options. Footsteps and a slight sound of speech were heard outside the door.

"Who, come in!" Yan Ming opened his mouth and said.

The door was pushed open, and standing at the door were the two big-bellied daughters-in-law of Yanran and Tian Xi.

"Why are you here?" Yan Ming was surprised.

Yanran and Tian Xi glanced at each other, but the naughty Yanran opened her mouth and said, "I have long heard that my husband's office is spacious and generous. Seeing Sister Pingyang here today, the two of us came over to have a look. ”

"Yes, look, long insight." Tian Xi also echoed and said.

Yan Ming and Princess Pingyang are both smart people, and they can see the careful thinking of the two people at a glance.

"Tian Xi, you came just in time." Yan Ming waved his hand and said, "Just now we were talking about letting Princess Pingyang manage our paper mill in Maolingyi. In this way, my father-in-law does not have to worry about the paper that cannot enter the Chang'an market. ”

"What?" Tian Xi didn't understand at all.

"It's nothing, and I told you you you don't understand. So, let's go to the paper mill right away. Yan Ming said, stood up, and wanted to take Princess Pingyang to the paper mill.

Tian Xi knew that the taste of papermaking was very bad, so he frowned and said, "Dad is in the paper factory, you can go." I wasn't feeling well, so I didn't go. ”

Yan Ran also nodded and said no.

Yan Ming felt helpless about the two daughters-in-law, so he had to let the two of them grind for a while before leaving.

"Two younger sisters, don't worry about me!" Pingyang sighed.

Yan Ming thought of a sentence: "There are many rights and wrongs in front of the widow's door." But he didn't dare to say it, after all, the princess was already living a very unhappy life, and if she said it so directly, it would be like looking for death.

"Leave them alone, let's go out and see the paper mill."

The two of them went around the paper mill in Maolingyi, and then went to Old Man Lu to learn from him.

I heard that the Duke of Pingyang would send someone to learn the craft with him and make tables and chairs, and the old man Lu agreed repeatedly. Allowing the princess to apprentice with him is simply the smoke of the ancestral tomb of the old Lu family.

Princess Pingyang inspected Hongyan Hall for three or four days before leaving. During this period, he and Yan Ming were constantly ambiguous, and many people could see that the relationship between the two was not ordinary.

It's just that Yan Ming is ambiguous, but he didn't break the bottom line.

Sending off Princess Pingyang is also a big deal for Yan Ming. When it comes to furniture and papermaking, he has long wanted to find someone who can be reliable to develop.

But there has been no suitable candidate, and now that I have found Princess Pingyang, it seems that there is really no more suitable person for these two businesses than Princess Pingyang.

Yan Ming told Princess Pingyang that in these two businesses, there is a share of the emperor's 10%.

Princess Pingyang is such a smart person, she didn't ask, and directly agreed to Yan Ming. It's just that people who understand the economy and can settle accounts need Yan Ming to look for them.

For a while, Yan Ming had no one at hand, so he had to agree first, and then slowly look for a suitable candidate.

Princess Pingyang left, but she ushered in another person, the eldest daughter of the king of Huainan, the county lord Liu Ling.

Since the last time, Hongyantang enrolled students on a large scale, and Yan Ming had seen Liu Ling. The two never saw each other again. Now seeing Liu Ling coming, Yan Ming was not surprised.

After all, the king of Huainan was going to come to Chang'an to meet the emperor and the empress dowager, and it was impossible for Liu Ling not to know about this. And Liu Ling's coming over this time is indeed related to the entry of King Huainan into Chang'an.

"I haven't seen you for many days, and the county lord is getting more and more beautiful." Facing Liu Ling, who was like a goblin, Yan Ming's mouth became much sweeter.

"Yan Hou, you are getting better and better at talking!" Liu Ling winked at Yan Ming, looking like he was in trouble for the country and the people.

Yan Ming's heart couldn't help but accelerate slightly.

If Tian Xi's calmness made Yan Ming like it, then this Liu Ling's naughty and ghost elf made Yan Ming a little inexplicably restless.

The two of them were like friends, and they made a few jokes together, and then Yan Ming let them into their office.

"I'm here this time, and I really have something to ask for Yan Hou!" Liu Ling said with a smile.

"What's the matter that can make Lord Liu come and ask Yan Ming?" Yan Ming said with a grin.

"I think you should have heard that my father is coming to Chang'an to meet Your Majesty." Liu Ling said straight to the point: "My father is a prince who likes to dance and write, and the so-called talented and beautiful people and powerful nobles in Chang'an City are too rough. I wanted to find a place for my father to study with peace of mind, and when I thought about it, I thought of your Hongyan Hall. ”

Yan Ming pursed his lips and said with a smile: "If you want to come to Hongyan Hall, you can, but Lord Huainan, are you ready to be my teacher here?" ”
