Zhou Zhengzheng arranged the rest of the recruits in a large courtyard, with a table for each person, and the materials for the female red were also well prepared.

In the end, the one who does it exquisitely wins.

In this way, after another round of competition, another group of people were eliminated.

Although these eliminated people could not become the shop owners of Qingxiangzhuang, Zhou Zhengzheng carefully sent each of them the latest incense products, and also sent back and forth entanglements.

And the winners, although there are not many, are all very exquisite, and they can basically meet the requirements of Qingxiangzhuang.

And then, it was the last test, and Zhou Zhengzheng brought the rest of the people to the first Qingxiang Village opened in the capital.

For this selection, Zhou Zhengzheng also deliberately closed the door to thank customers.

The refreshing aroma filled the air, and Zhou Zheng sat at a large round table, while the rest of the people sat around the table.

On the table, there are exquisite small boxes containing all kinds of fragrant spices, including ambergris, Suhe, and chicken tongue.

"Today, let's try your sense of smell." Zhou Zhengzheng said slowly, "A good sense of smell can identify good spices." ”

Everyone nodded slightly and listened attentively.

"Each of you can open the incense box at will, smell all kinds of spices, and after half an hour, start the competition." After Zhou Zhengzheng finished speaking, he retreated and rested.

In fact, she was secretly watching the performance of these applicants.

Some are very active, opening the incense box one by one to smell it, some are more humble and waiting for everything to see, and some will take the initiative to talk to other people.

Zhou Zheng's bureau seems to be examining the applicants' sense of smell, but in fact, it is also examining their business potential.

When Zhou Zhengzheng returned to everyone again, everyone thought that they were going to start the fragrance tasting exam, but Zhou Zhengzheng directly selected the right candidate.

In this way, Zhou Zhengzheng selected more than a dozen applicants from all over the Central Plains with his own unique vision.

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Zheng asked Zhang Bihua to be responsible for the selection and layout of Qingxiangzhuang in various places.

With a shop and a person, Zhou Zhengzheng used his previous experience in opening a shop in the capital to quickly open an identical fragrance village in various parts of the Central Plains.

Because the layout is the same, the signboard is the same, and the spices sold are the same, Qingxiangzhuang's business in various places soon occupied the first place in the local spice sales.

The name of Qingxiangzhuang was instantly launched in the Central Plains, and Qingxiangzhuang has become a veritable first fragrant village in the world.

Wu Guogong Mansion.

Outside the cold house, the water in the pond was frozen almost still. The branches are also quiet, as if they are painted, but there are still a few plum blossoms blooming, and the faint fragrance makes people feel a little warm.

Inside, the copper stove in the corner of the house is constantly steaming outward.

Zhou Zheng wore a horse coat embroidered with double-sided butterflies, and inside was a red silk jacket, and the jacket was embroidered with gold thread with a swash pattern, and said to Narcissus: "King Yu just sent someone to say that he had found a very important person, but that person was seriously injured, and it was inconvenient for the imperial doctor to heal, so I thought of you, Narcissus, would you like to meet?" ”

Narcissus said, "Slaves and maids all obey the girl's orders, and they can go or not." ”

Zhou Zhengzheng nodded, "King Yu must also know that you are good at talking." Well, I won't go with you, you go alone. "Yes." Narcissus nodded.

Under the eaves of the inn, a thumb-thick ice cube was hung, and the sun shone in a colorful light.

Lin Zhongchao wore a snow-white goose feather xia cape, which was a long-sleeved cotton jacket embroidered with crane embroidery, and a white shirt and a pair of leather boots on the lower body.

The crown prince wore a sky-blue robe with water ripples embroidered at the hem of the robe. Inside, it is a pipa placket.

The two stared at the unconscious Emperor Beidi in a daze.

"Chao'er, the slave and maid Narcissus of Zhou Zheng you said, really knows how to heal?" The prince said.

Lin Zhongchao nodded, "Father, Narcissus is already here, whether he can heal or not, he will be able to see soon." ”

Before the two could finish talking, Narcissus came out of the inner room, the medical box in his hand had been closed, and it seemed that the diagnosis had been completed.

"He is very seriously injured, the slave has done him a simple bandage and acupuncture, he will wake up soon, this is the prescription, but even if he drinks this medicine, he will not live long. It's just to make up for the body. Narcissus said.

"You were diagnosed so quickly?" The prince was overjoyed, "Even a slave and maid in the Duke of Wu's mansion are so powerful. ”

Lin Zhongchao said: "Father, it should be said that Zhou Zheng is powerful, and even the slaves and maids around her are different. Something special. ”

"yes." The prince said, "Reward." ”

Narcissus saluted very respectfully, "Thank you, Your Royal Highness the Prince, the slave maid just came over to help on the order of Miss Zhou, and did not dare to accept the reward, if His Royal Highness has anything to reward my girl, the slave and maid can transfer it on behalf of His Highness." ”

The prince smiled: "You are very loyal and very smart, since you have asked for a reward for your master, so let's do it, Gu will reward your master with a piece of silk, and you will accept it on your behalf." ”

Narcissus knelt down to receive the silk, and then left.

The prince stared at Narcissus's back and said, "If you say that she is everyone's lady, you can believe it, even if everyone is beautiful." ”

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the old emperor of Beidi to wake up, "Who are you?" ”

"It doesn't matter who we are, the important thing is that you are in our hands now, and Beidi, you can't go back." Lin Zhongchao smiled gloomily.

"Why can't Beidi go back? Could it be that you have been destroyed by the Central Plains? ”

Lin Zhongchao sighed, "Because Beidi already has a new emperor." One mountain cannot tolerate two tigers, and one country can have two kings. Do you think the new emperor will be willing to accept you? If you go home casually, you will be killed. ”

The old emperor of Beidi said: "I don't believe it. ”

"The new emperor's name is Yelu Bone." Lin Zhongchao said tentatively.

The old emperor's face turned blue, "It's him!" How is he still alive! ”

"It seems that you really want him to die, but unfortunately, he is your eldest brother." Lin Zhongchao is always so direct.

"Yes, yes so what? He didn't recognize me as the emperor's brother. The old emperor of Beidi raised his eyebrows and said, "After so many years, he has not changed." ”

"He's changed, he's changed, he's become more vicious than he used to be." Lin Zhongchao said, "However, I also want to tell you that if you don't plan to recognize him, don't go back to Beidi." ”

Emperor Beidi thought for a while, and suddenly said: "I don't want to go back to Beidi, there are no friends of mine anymore." ”

Lin Zhongchao nodded, "It's also your honor to cooperate with us."
