Chapter 132 The Truth
After dealing with the day's affairs, at night, Ling Ling thought about it, and bolted the rear window from the inside. Sure enough, someone knocked on the window shortly after dark, and Ling Ling replied softly, "I'm tired today."

Standing outside the back window, Chu Qianhan looked out the window and sighed, guessing that Shangguan Qing was angry.

Today, when Chu Qianhan received a flying sword Xinya, he realized that he had been cheated. The ten flying swords he gave to Shangguan Qing were meant to help Shangguan Qing restrain Zhou Ruoyun, but Chu Huaitian manipulated him and passed Panlong The law sucked away [-]% of Shangguan Qing's luck.

The so-called Coiling Dragon Method is to imitate the nine sons of a dragon, use a flying sword as an array to absorb the luck of the sword keeper, and distribute it to the other nine flying swords, absorbing [-]% of the luck of the sword keeper in a short time, ordinary people It is possible to die on the spot.

Shangguan Qing's ability to survive shows that her cultivation base is rich and her fortune is long.It also means that Shangguanqing will lose a lot in the future. Just yesterday, a small kiln factory had already fired cement. The other party did not consider the health protection of the workers, and did not pay the workers high wages. On the contrary, the cost was about [-]% lower than that of the cement kiln factory.

Apart from visiting Shangguan Qing, Chu Qian also wanted to talk about some serious business when she came here this time.

The Imperial City Division held [-]% of the shares in the cement factory, and last quarter it paid tens of thousands of gold in dividends. As the emperor, Chu Huaitian was reluctant to give up the money. He was inconvenient to summon Shangguan Qing, so he forced Chu Qianhan to come over.

Chu Huaitian promised that as long as the profits of the cement factory are not affected, he can acquiesce in Chu Qianshui's escape and not send the forbidden army masters to hunt him down.

In order to appease Shangguan Qing, Chu Huaitian also took out a Zhuyan Pill from the inner storage, which can keep a woman's appearance unchanged for 30 years. Although it has no effect of improving the skill, it is a treasure that women will be crazy about.

Chu Qianhan asked for an imperial decree on behalf of Shangguan Qing, allowing Shangguan Qing to exclusively operate the cement factory for 30 years as compensation for the loss of luck.

Chu Qianhan said at the time: "There is already a small cement factory in the outskirts of Beijing. If Shangguan Qing is not given the exclusive franchise, Huangcheng Division's equity business will also be reduced. It is better to hand over the franchise to Shangguan Qing, maybe there will be a turnaround .”

Chu Huaitian's attitude at the time was completely dispensable. The new cement factory in the suburbs of Beijing was actually secretly run by the Huangcheng Division. It used the technology of the Shangguanqing Cement Factory. Naturally low.In Chu Huaitian's eyes, the life of the untouchables is not life. There are tens of thousands of refugees in the world. If one dies, another one can be recruited. As long as the imperial court is strong, the Great Chu Kingdom will be stable.

Benevolence and benevolence are just beautiful words, most of which are useless.

Chu Qianhan knocked on the window again: "Qing'er is me."

No one answered, Chu Qianhan knocked on the window again, but still no one answered, just when Chu Qianhan wanted to continue knocking on the window, Liu Liuniang turned around from the corner of the room.

"Third Highness, the girl asked me to give this to you, and said, please don't come again."

Liu Liuniang handed a book to Chu Qianhan, and said in a low voice, "Miss is in a bad mood today, maybe because she is not feeling well, Your Highness will come back in a few days."

"Please, Miss Liu."

"That's what a slave should do."

Chu Qianhan took out an imperial decree and handed it to Liu Liuniang to pass it on to her. After seeing Liu Liuniang go back, Chu Qianhan had no choice but to leave.

Ling Ling wanted to vomit blood when she heard the conversation outside the back window in the house, Liu Liuniang's thinking really jumped, and she even connected her bad mood to a relative's visit. Is my sister such a person who has no self-control?
But this is good too, I can be clean for a few days, and I can also prepare for leaving the capital. The wound on my body hurts again, and I am tired. Ling Ling changed her body and clothes and lay down, and put the reed knife on next to the pillow.

"What are you doing, girl?" Zhu Qing seemed puzzled and couldn't help asking.

"I'm restless today, so I can sleep well. You all go out." Ling Ling hurriedly drove people out of the room, and set up warning lines on the doors, windows and ceilings. A dummy was made on the bed before he got under the bed and slept.

Chu Qianhan came out of Shangguan Qing's house, climbed over the wall and entered Princess Xiyue's mansion, and walked into the secret room of the attic of Xiyue Bureau with ease. An oil lamp was lit in the room, and the room was filled with the smell of ambergris.

Princess Xiyue's brother-in-law Liu Jinjiang is building a model of an iron-making blast furnace with paper models.If Shangguan Qing was present, she would definitely be able to tell that this was the new type of blast furnace she had arranged for Chen Chui to build in Tiezao.

Seeing Chu Qianhan coming in, Liu Jinjiang greeted him: "Come here and have a look. I have just deduced that after such a blast furnace is completed, the amount of iron produced each month is the total output of the past month. According to Shangguan According to the calculations, the iron ore and coal transported to the capital from all over the world can maintain eight blast furnaces in rotation, and under ideal conditions, the iron production can be increased by six times."

Chu Qianhan asked: "If you look at this here for a day, you are not afraid of hurting your eyes. The blueprint of the new blast furnace has already been circulated, so you don't have to hide here to read."

Liu Jinjiang waved his hand and said, "It's different. The Imperial City Division is like a sieve, and any information can be leaked out, but I can't get it to the public to study. The bullets from Yushitai are not just a joke, yes. Yes, have you seen Shangguan's promotion? I plan to let my younger sister go to her to study, is it too late to go now?"

"I didn't see it."

"How is it possible, aren't you two in love, are you ready to get married?"

"Something happened." Chu Qianhan told the whole story.

Liu Jinjiang was stunned for a long time before saying: "Thunder, rain and dew are all the grace of the emperor, Miss Shangguan will think about it."

"I'm afraid that she won't think about it. She is so proud. She was devoted to the country at the beginning, and she has used so many secret techniques. I am afraid that she will focus on selfishness in the future."

"No, probably not."

"Do you believe it?" Chu Qianhan asked uncooperatively, and Liu Jinjiang smiled bitterly: "Why do you have to speak so bluntly, but it's a pity, Miss Shangguan may not give advice to Da Chu again."

"It's not enough." Chu Qianhan took out a book: "Although I haven't seen her, she still asked someone to give me this. I read it, and it is indeed a good idea."

"Let me see."

Liu Jinjiang took the booklet and looked at it carefully. It said that the way to continue to make cement profits was to improve the process, open new factories, and lower the market price of cement without reducing workers' wages and protective measures, so that ordinary people can also affordable.

"Turn rare commodities into mass commodities, analogous to grain, salt, and cloth."

Liu Jinjiang looked at the book and shook his head: "It's incisive. If iron can benefit the world, people don't need to use wooden scythes to reap the fields. They can also use iron plows to plow the land. It is not impossible for the 30 forbidden troops in the capital to wear armor."

"Qing'er told me that if everything is implemented according to the plan, the entire army can be equipped with armor within five years, but the emperor is hesitating. He is worried that there will be a flood of iron weapons, and the local army will rebel and shake the country. Because of this, He will take away Qing'er's future luck."
