Shao Yi is a person who has experienced a lifetime, although he had some frustration in Xia Yanqing, he did not delay the serious matter. On the day he returned from Zhuangzi, he sorted out the situation around Tangzhou.

In the previous life, when he met Xia Yanqing, it was seven years after now, he went to Tangzhou to do business, and he was quite familiar with the past there.

Tangzhou is a rich land, with fertile land and developed commerce, and it is a good thing that Tangzhou can be re-elected.

On the contrary, Binh Duong County, which is adjacent to Tangzhou, has barren land and a small area.

Zhang Dingchen, the prefect of Pingyang County at that time, was previously the prefect of Tangzhou, but because his political performance evaluation was inferior for two consecutive years, he was sent to Pingyang County as the prefect.

When Shao Yi went to Tangzhou that year to do business, Zhang Dingchen had already served in the barren Pingyang County for eight years, and there was nowhere to describe his bitter tears.

In other words, now in this life, Zhang Dingchen has just gone to Pingyang County to serve as the prefect.

Zhang Dingchen was sent to Pingyang County that year, because he was squeezed out by the squires of Tangzhou County, which led to poor political performance every year.

This kind of thing is quite common, and if the officials stationed in the imperial court do not get along well with the local forces, it is very likely that the local forces will join forces to secretly hinder the officials' governance, and it is logical that the political performance is not good.

However, Zhang Dingchen's situation was extremely beneficial to Xia Yanqing's opening of a glass workshop in Pingyang County against the glass business in Tangzhou.

Shao Yi decided to set the location of the glass workshop in Pingyang County, whether Zhang Dingchen was for his own political achievements or to crack down on the Tangzhou squire, he must also be willing to vigorously protect the normal operation of the glass workshop.

It's just that putting all hope on the court officials is not very safe.

At this time, you can use Ding Bochang and others, these few idle guys who want to grow hair are in the capital, and they only have the cards of the gentlemen. But when they go to the place, their identities are very different, and they are very capable of bluffing people.

It's just that a few of them have to be built in the workshop, and when the glass business starts to make a profit, and it's easy to make people's eyes hot, let them go over and press the battle.

lest they leave now, the news must be known by the Chengjun Palace.

In view of this situation, Shao Yi first went to Ganye Temple and asked Guangyuan if he could travel again, take the silver first, and go to Pingyang County to open up the situation.

The matter was decided, and he took Xiuyuan to the kiln to explain to Xia Yanqing.

went to the kiln, but unexpectedly met Hong Dagui in the kiln steward's room.

When Shao Yi entered the door, Xia Yanqing, Mr. Bai and Hong Dagui all got up to greet each other, and after saluting each other, they took their respective seats.

Shao Yi glanced at Hong Dagui, and remembered that two days ago, he had seen this person on the Xia family Zhuangzi, and couldn't help but ask in surprise, "What's wrong?" But what's going on in the glass conservatory? ”

Xia Yanqing looked a little annoyed, but he was not panicked.

She said: "Before noon today, someone from the palace went to Zhuangzi to see the growth of vegetables in the greenhouse. ”

Shao Yi is not surprised that someone knows about growing vegetables in the greenhouse.

At that time, the batch of defective glass sent from the kiln attracted the attention of many people, although people were arranged on the Zhuangzi to closely guard the surrounding area of the Zhuangzi and prevent outsiders from entering.

But there are many farmers in the village, but the news of growing vegetables in the greenhouse cannot be hidden.

However, even the palace knew about this, and even sent someone to check it out, which is a bit mysterious.

"Do you know who is here?" Shao Yi asked.

If this is the emperor's intention, it's okay, and if it's done, the vegetables can be sent to the palace and tasted by the emperor, which is a great thing.

I'm afraid that this is someone fighting the autumn wind in the name of the emperor, and that is trouble.

Xia Yanqing looked at Hong Dagui and motioned for him to answer.

So far, she only knows that the emperor's year name is Qingyuan, and there are five princes and three princesses under his name, and the rest is not clear.

As for who the eunuch who came, for her, it was even more foggy.

Hong Dagui sat on the chair below, bowed, and replied, "That's a middle-aged eunuch, very capable, and the people around him call him Grandpa Sun." ”

Shao Yi was relieved when he heard this, the capable middle-aged eunuch was called Sun Gonggong by the people below, and if nothing else, it was the emperor's personal eunuch Sun Congshan.

That is to say, the people who came to the palace this time were for the emperor.

Shao Yi smiled: "This is a good thing, this is the chief steward Sun Gonggong who serves the emperor closely, and the emperor will naturally not plan this little bit of vegetables." However, from now on, the greenhouse will have to be taken care of more intensively. At this time, fresh vegetables are rare, and when you can't pick vegetables, you have to send some to the palace. ”

Xia Yanqing nodded in response, but he didn't expect to be known by the emperor so easily.

Who is so good? actually helped the Xia family pave this kind of road for free.

"It's just that the emperor is an old man, and he must be serving every day, so he shouldn't lack anything, right?" Xia Yanqing pondered that the palace might have other ways to obtain vegetables, such as "riding a red dust concubine laughing", which was sent from the south Pegasus.

It's just that even if there is such a thing that costs people and money, even if it really exists, she can't say it blatantly.

Shao Yi said with a smile: "Where is there any dragon liver and phoenix marrow, it is nothing more than making chicken, duck, fish, and various vegetables more exquisite." The palace also occasionally has vegetables from the southern officials who pay tribute, but after a few days of turbulence, their freshness and tenderness cannot be compared to the freshly picked ones here. The important thing is that the emperor must have been curious about the crops that could be grown in winter. ”

"That's fine." Xia Yanqing was pleased.

As the saying goes, eating people has a short mouth, and taking people has a short hand. It is a palace lamp and a vegetable, and the emperor eats and takes it at her Xia family, so he always has to be a little partial to Xia Ke and Xia Zitang.

According to the memories of Shao Yi's previous life, Xia Ke's father and son's personal ability should be very strong, and in this life, she will help them become famous, as long as they don't make mistakes and act like Shao Yi in their previous life, their official fortunes will be stable.

Maybe under the emperor's policy tilt, the second assistant and deputy commander or something are likely to directly become the first assistant and commander.

Hong Dagui left with Xia Yanqing's solemn orders, and from today on, in addition to the two old farmers in the past, the greenhouse is selecting upright and upright Zhuang Ding, who takes turns to guard the greenhouse.

During the period of guarding the greenhouse, all such things as doing private work and drinking alcohol are all prohibited.

Seeing Hong Dagui take the order and leave, Shao Yi hesitated and said: "Farmers are not professional guards after all, I have people left behind by my father before, and they are all from Da Nei guards. If Miss Xia can be trusted, I will send a few people to Zhuangzi to help take care of it, which should be more secure. ”

Xia Yanqing thought about it, and then he should go. This matter is very important, according to Shao Yi's feelings for Ah Can in the previous life, it is absolutely impossible to pit her.

"That's okay, how much silver is your guard, I'll hire it three times." Seeing that Shao Yi's face was not good, she laughed dryly, "It's okay to have more, otherwise, Shao Gongzi won't be able to explain to his subordinates." ”

Shao Yi glanced at her and said coldly: "There is no shortage of those few silvers in the next place!" ”

Xia Yanqing pouted, he just lived by eating the court and a few Zhuangzi, could he still have more silver than her?

Not as knowledgeable as him, Xia Yanqing asked: "Young Master Shao is here, but the place to make a glass workshop in the south has been settled?" ”
