As soon as Ran Fang returned to the mansion, the guard at the door immediately greeted him and whispered in his ear: "My lord, Meng Zhonglang is here and is waiting for you in the front hall." ”

Hearing this, he immediately overjoyed, and there was no need to guess that Meng Yi was also here for the matter of cotton clothes.

It seems that he sent money to himself again.

"Okay, I got it."

With a brisk step, Ran Yi walked towards the front hall, and when he stepped forward with one foot, he saw Meng Yi standing up from the chair with gratitude on his face.

Before he could step forward with his other foot, Meng Yi had already caught up.

"Commander, I already know about the cotton clothes."

"I didn't know that you still thought about my eldest brother and those soldiers of Daqin."

"It's me who spoke too loudly to you before, I hope you don't mind."

Seeing his sincere eyes, Ran Fang also nodded solemnly.

"That's what I'm supposed to do."

As he spoke, he pushed Meng Yi away without a trace, walked to the chair and sat down, and then said, "Let's sit down and talk about something." ”

"Are you here today to say thank you?"

His eyes looked directly at Meng Yi, which meant that he knew something, and he had to pay for it when it was time to pay it.

Meng Yi immediately understood, he respectfully saluted Ran Fang, and then said very sincerely: "It's not just to thank your lordship. ”

"Since the adult is a cotton coat made for the Great Qin soldiers, then I naturally can't stand by and watch."

Hearing this, Ran Fang nodded with satisfaction, waiting for his words.

Sure enough, then Meng Yi continued: "The matter of sending cotton clothes is far away and dangerous, when the cotton clothes are made, I will find someone to personally escort them and deliver them to my eldest brother." ”

"Sir, don't worry, you will never be left alone to do this."

Ran Fang's expression, which was still excited, suddenly drooped down.

After making the cotton clothes, if he goes to Yingzheng, someone will rush to deliver it, do you still use Meng Yi to speak?

Is this what he wants?

He wants money!

How much does it cost to make cotton clothes, don't you know?!

He looked at Meng Yi's "sincere" eyes, feeling that there was some mockery.

"Hehe, you are wrong about this, when the cotton clothes are made, Your Majesty will naturally send someone to deliver them personally, so I won't worry about you."

Meng Yi looked at Ran Fang in a daze, not understanding why he suddenly turned cold when he was still smiling with joy just now?

And the tone is still so tough?

For a moment, he stood still and didn't know what to say.

Looking at his appearance, Ran knew that this person's brain was definitely inflexible, so it was better to be more direct.

"Now that there is no loom and a textile mill has not been built, there are so many things ahead of you, are you thinking too far?"

"To build a textile factory, not only do you need land, but also wool, goose feathers, duck feathers and silk, as well as people who know how to make fabrics, these are all troubles."

Hearing him say it so bluntly, a flush suddenly rose on Meng Yi's face, because he was thinking too simply.

Unexpectedly, Ran Fang needed money to do so many things.

He said with some embarrassment: "This...... I don't know any of these things. ”

"If you want to help my husband, I can't do anything, so it's better to do this, I'll pay for my eldest brother."

"There are also chickens, ducks and geese from the farm, and I also pay for them."

"How?"

Ran Fang was satisfied with this answer, and this was the result he wanted.

"Okay, then I'm better to be respectful."

"I won't let you send it in person, when you leave in a while, I will ask Liu Bang to go with you, and get the money back directly, so I won't have to make another trip for you."

The important thing is that when he reacts, or after he breathes with Wang Juan, his careful thoughts will be exposed.

Meng Yi didn't think about it so much, he was still a little moved when he heard Ran Fang say this.

"Thank you, sir."

"Then I'll go back and prepare now."

As he spoke, he seemed to be afraid that Ran Fang would regret it, so he left in a hurry.

Ran Fang immediately glanced at Liu Bang beside him, and Liu Bang also followed in Meng Yi's footsteps, for fear that he would regret not giving it.

The two of them have their own agendas, but they are also moving towards the same goal.

……

The cabinet led by Li Si and Feng Quji, when they got the decision of this scientific expedition, they all had joy on their faces, and their hands were gearing up.

You must know that the cabinet has been in place for a few days, and they have dealt with trivial matters, but this time the selection of people is to be officials, which is naturally a major matter, and they must take it seriously.

But when they saw the records of their lives that were sent with the examination papers, everyone was silent again.

One of the officials asked, "Prime Minister, what does Your Majesty mean by this?" ”

Originally, Li Si and Feng Qu hated each other, but now that they stay together every day, the two can get along more harmoniously.

So when talking and doing things, the two can also discuss a little politely, but when they make the final decision, they both have their own thoughts.

Just like now, Li Si was the first to speak, looking at Feng Quji with a very polite look.

"What does Prime Minister Feng think?"

"What does Your Majesty mean by sending the answer sheet at the same time as these?"

"Feng Cheng has been by His Majesty's side for a long time, and he should know His Majesty's mind best."

The meaning of these words couldn't be more obvious, Feng Qujian had discussed the scientific examination with Ran Fang before, and he guessed that it should be Ran Fang's idea, so he replied: "As an official, you must not only have knowledge, but also morality. ”

"So, Your Majesty's meaning is very clear."

He glanced at Li Si contemptuously, and the words seemed to be pointing at Li Si.

But Li Si was not affected at all, and said with a smile: "It makes sense." ”

"Let's follow Prime Minister Feng's words and start reading the answer sheet."

"After reading the answers, look at the records about them, so that it is more accurate."

It seems that Feng Quji answered correctly, but it was Li Si who gave the order in the end, as if Feng Quji was pinched by Li Si again.

These two are really fighting openly and secretly.

This scene was no longer strange in the eyes of these people in the cabinet, and after Li Si gave the order, they began to flip through the answer sheets and write their opinions on the paper next to them.

When Li Si was recording, he would also ask Feng Quji's opinion next to him.

"Prime Minister Feng, what do you think of this Fu Qing?"

"The writing is outstanding, the words are sharp, and he will be an upright person for the official in the future."

Feng Quji, who was writing his opinion, glanced at the answer sheet in Li Si's hand, then shook his head and put the answer sheet back in its place.

"No."

"This person's rhetoric is too intense, that person's temperament must be extreme, how can he be an official?"

"It's better to have Rong Yingwei's answer sheet in my hand, the handwriting is chic, and he speaks freely, and it can be seen from his words that this person has a mature heart, and he will be a good official for the people in the future."

Li Si didn't see it, so he shook his head and said: "No, how can such an impetuous person do things for the people with peace of mind?" ”

"Look again, look again."
