Li Guifei asked: "Then tell me, what are these two choices?" ”

Sheng Guoer said: These two roads are one, you cooperate with me, let's make money together, and the second way, I will make money alone and give you a commission, is it okay? ”

"No, you can't!" Li Guifei said without hesitation.

Sheng Guo'er thought in her heart: "I'm going, I really haven't seen anyone more shrewd than you." She continued to persuade: "Look at it, if we make money together, we can bring you at least more than three thousand taels of silver every year, if you let others know......" Before she finished speaking, Concubine Li interrupted her and said: "I know, if you let others know, you will be killed, but I tell you, this palace is not short of money!" And this palace doesn't need anyone to share the risk, and you don't want to take half of the benefits from this palace! ”

Hearing Li Guifei say this, Sheng Guo'er secretly said in her heart: "You are not greedy for money, who believes it!" She continued: "Then I'll have to do it myself. To tell you the truth, now I have forty or fifty thousand taels of silver tickets in hand, although it is not a lot compared to you, but it is enough! ”

"Humph!" Li Guifei sneered: "You are quite good at bragging. ”

Sheng Guo'er hurriedly shook her hands and explained, "I'm not bragging!" The silver ticket in my hand is a real existence, and it is all earned by me little by little. ”

Li Guifei said again: "Since you have forty or fifty thousand taels of silver in your hand, how can you ask me to cooperate?" If you have the ability to do it yourself! I'd like to see how good you are! ”

After all, in ancient times, it was good for a girl from an ordinary family to earn dozens or hundreds of taels of silver in her lifetime, and a girl of her status could only rely on men to eat for the rest of her life, even if the favor of His Majesty the Emperor could not help her.

And the reason why Sheng Guoer can make money is not only because of her intelligence, but also because she has a peerless appearance! Her body is indeed beautiful and moving, but anyone who has seen her face will never forget that face.

"Mother, now I don't dare to cooperate with you." Sheng Guo'er said with a bitter face.

"Oh? Why is that? Li Guifei asked curiously.

Sheng Guo'er sighed and said, "Niangniang, think about it, if I hand over the silver on my hand to you for safekeeping, wouldn't that be tantamount to selling me in disguise?" Besides, I'm not at ease, what if you lie to me? What if you get the money and turn around and don't admit it? ”

"Hahaha...... You girl, you will actually suspect me, you are not small! Li Guifei laughed coquettishly.

Sheng Guo'er hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Niangniang, I didn't mean that. ”

"Okay, this palace will forgive you for the time being." Li Guifei said calmly.

"Thank you, mother." Sheng Guo'er breathed a sigh of relief.

Immediately, Li Guifei said: "You girl, sit down first, don't stand." ”

"Yes, sissy." Sheng Guo'er responded obediently.

"The first option you just mentioned, this palace feels very tempting, if you can satisfy this palace, I can consider cooperating with you."

Li Guifei said.

Sheng Guo'er was overjoyed and said, "Niangniang, then what do you say I should do?" ”

"First of all, you have to prove that you have that ability and let this palace see your sincerity."

"How can I show you my sincerity?" Sheng Guo'er humbly asked.

"It's very simple, as long as you can prove that you can win against the Chen family and outperform the Chen family in terms of construction!" Li Guifei said.

"It's easy to do!" Sheng Guo'er said confidently.

"Hmm. Next, you'll have to prove your worth. Li Guifei continued: "You must show that you are strong enough, as well as your resourcefulness. If you can achieve both, Hongu will work with you. ”

Sheng Guo'er got up to say goodbye and said, "Niangniang, please wait and see."

After finishing speaking, Sheng Guoer got up and said goodbye.

After she left, Concubine Li Guifei smiled and said, "Interesting, really interesting!" ”

"Master, the slave always feels strange about today." The palace maid on the side whispered to Concubine Li Guifei.

"Hehe, of course it's weird, didn't you notice that this Sheng Guo is too smart? This doesn't make sense. ”

"Yes! It's unbelievable that she, such a weak woman, can earn so much silver in just a few months with her identity as a grass farmer! ”

"Humph! Hongu is becoming more and more curious, how many secrets does this little girl still hide? There must be an untold story behind her! ”

"Master, do you mean that there is someone behind this achievement?" The palace maid was surprised.

"Well, eight or nine is not far from ten." Li Guifei nodded firmly.

……

After returning to the room, Sheng Guo'er fell into deep thought, and she suddenly realized that she seemed to have overlooked an important issue!

"Alas, I patronized and thought about how to use Li Guifei's chess piece, but I ignored the forces behind Li Guifei!" Sheng Guo'er sighed lightly and said regretfully: "If Concubine Li's father was not the first assistant of the dynasty, how could she hold so much power!" ”

Sheng Guo'er suddenly thought of a question - if Li Guifei's father was not the first assistant of the dynasty, then how could she control so much power?

"Looks like I'm still too tender." Sheng Guo'er muttered to herself.

"Looks like I need to change my strategy!"

Sheng Guo'er pondered in her heart: "Now that Concubine Li is wary of me, if I take a wrong step rashly, there may be problems." ”

On the second day, Sheng Guoer gathered all the workers and said, "Today I want to talk about our plan, and I hope you will listen carefully. ”

"Yes." The workers said in unison.

Sheng Guoer pointed to the drawings on the table and said to everyone: "If we want to build the workshop within a week, and the construction is successful, we must have abundant labor. ”

But the workers said, "But how can we build this palace garden complex in such a short time?" ”

Sheng Guo'er said: "You don't have to worry about this, I have already thought of a way." ”

"What's the solution?" Everyone asked.

Sheng Guo'er smiled mysteriously and said, "You just need to do what I tell you to do, and I promise that you will build the palace garden within a month." ”

"That's great!" Everyone cheered excitedly.

"Okay, let's start now, let's go and prepare tools and materials, and strive to start work as soon as possible!" Sheng Guo'er ordered.

"Yes, ma'am!"

The people immediately took the command and left.

Sheng Guo'er came to the open field in the courtyard.

The area of this vacant land is not small, almost half an acre or so.

At this time, all the surrounding trees were cut down, and all that was left was stone.

"My plan is this, we dig a trench three meters deep in this clearing, cover the trench with cement, and plant plants on both sides of the trench, so that the whole trench is full of vibrant green.

On the slopes on both sides, we planted all kinds of plants, such as shrubs, thorn bushes, weeds, and so on, and I planted everything I could think of.

Then on both sides of the ditch, we will plant lotus flowers, and in the center we will plant a big tree. ”

Sheng Guo'er pointed to the open space in front of him and said: "You see that the soil on this open space is very suitable for planting lotus flowers, and when the lotus flowers bloom, it must be very beautiful!" ”

"Wow, that's beautiful!" Everyone said excitedly.

"Ma'am, let's go dig a pit now."

"Okay, I'll go with you."

So, Sheng Guo'er led everyone to a small forest five hundred meters away from the palace.

"Dig a pit, dig it!" Sheng Guo'er ordered.

The crowd began to wield shovels, digging pits and digging pits and planting.

Soon, the three-meter-long pit was dug and many shrubs, thorns and weeds were planted around it, and finally cement was poured on it.

In this way, the originally flat open space suddenly seemed extremely complicated, like a labyrinth.

Seeing this, Sheng Guo'er was secretly happy, it seemed that her plan was implemented smoothly.

Immediately afterwards, Sheng Guo'er asked everyone to fill in the excavated soil and bury it on the road outside the palace.

In this way, the foundation of the entire garden was completed.

"Young lady, this soil is buried in the ground, and it will be washed away by the rain when the time comes." The crowd said.

"Yes, that's good." Sheng Guo'er said.

"Alright, today's mission is done. Hurry up and rest, and start work again tomorrow. Sheng Guo'er commanded.

"Yes, young lady!" Everyone said in unison.

Sheng Guo'er returned to the room and lay on the bed for a long time and couldn't sleep.

Although today's plan went well, she was still worried.

After all, the number of craftsmen she recruited this time was not large, only sixty or seventy craftsmen, and most of them were just ordinary people, without any technical content, and could only rely on manual labor to eat.

Therefore, the efficiency of these sixty or seventy craftsmen was not very high, and it took only five days to dig a two-meter-wide pit and fill it with earth.

In this way, even if there are craftsmen to join in the future, it will not be possible to increase the speed of the project, so you can only take it slowly.

Sheng Guoer decided to recruit more craftsmen from now on.

As for who to recruit?

Sheng Guoer planned to ask Shopkeeper Liu of Majiagangzi first to see if there were any people willing to come over to help.

After all, for so many years, Majiagangzi has relied on the vegetable wholesale market he has made, and the manpower has not decreased, and as time goes by, more and more other villagers are willing to come over to work, so there should be no shortage of manpower.

So, Sheng Guoer came to Majiagangzi.

"Ouch, Boss Sheng, why do you have time to come to my house today?" Shopkeeper Liu greeted him warmly.

"Hehe, I came here today to ask you for a favor, I don't know if it's inconvenient for you?" Sheng Guo'er asked.

"The young lady is polite!" Shopkeeper Liu hurriedly waved his hand.

"Shopkeeper Liu, I want to ask you to help recruit a group of craftsmen, I don't know if you can agree?" Sheng Guo'er asked.

Shopkeeper Liu was stunned for a moment, and asked suspiciously: "Recruit craftsmen?" ”

"Yes!" Sheng Guo'er nodded solemnly.

"Young lady, the number of craftsmen in our Majiagang is enough to maintain the vegetable wholesale market, and there is no need to recruit other craftsmen at all." Shopkeeper Liu smiled bitterly.

Sheng Guo'er shook her head slightly: "Shopkeeper Liu, you misunderstood what I meant." I don't recruit artisans to maintain the wholesale vegetable market, I use it for other purposes. ”

"Oh? I don't know what the young lady plans to do? ”

"That's right, I'm going to build a palace garden on our clearing, and I'm going to build a ring ditch." Sheng Guo'er said.

Shopkeeper Liu suddenly realized that he was going to give the emperor a cultivation palace.

Thinking of this, Shopkeeper Liu couldn't help but envy Sheng Guo'er's good luck.

That's a big deal! Once it is done, it will definitely be a lot of money.

Not only myself, but I am afraid that several nearby villages will benefit a lot, especially if you are close to the vegetable wholesale market, it is definitely not a problem to make money.

Regardless of whether this thing can be done or not, it's always okay to take a slap on the back first, right?
