Iron Dynasty

Chapter 90 Hidden Danger

"Brother Wang, since His Highness is unwilling, it makes sense. Could it be that Brother Wang is here to make His Highness unhappy this time?" Qin Mu said lazily.

Compared with the Wang family, the Qin family is closer to Xiao Ming, but the Cangzhou incident has greatly damaged the Qin family's vitality, and the Qin family also has some opinions on Xiao Ming.

It's just that they can only hold this opinion in their hearts, because this incident tells them that the current King Qi no longer needs to look at their faces to act.

"Brother Qin, why did you say this? I came here to make His Highness happy." After that, Wang Shijie clapped his hands, and a servant of the Wang family walked in with a box.

At this time, Wang Shijie said: "Your Highness, this is a gift from my father to His Highness, and I hope His Highness will accept it with a smile."

After Wang Shijie finished speaking, the servant opened the box, and there were sheets of paper filled with words.

Xiao Ming glanced carefully, slightly surprised, he said, "This is the title deed."

"Yes, Your Highness, it is the title deed. My father learned that His Highness still needs a lot of farmland, so he gave His Highness a thousand hectares of fertile land outside the Wang family's Qingzhou city." Wang Shijie said.

Xiao Ming's eyes narrowed. His land in Qingzhou was only a hundred hectares. This time, the Wang family actually gave him a thousand hectares of fertile land. Although the thousand hectares were just a drizzle for the Wang family, it was the first time that he had given away his land. .

But after thinking about Xiao Ming for a moment, you will understand that this Wang Chengchou is indeed shrewd, because for Xiao Ming, silver can no longer impress him.

Now he can only vote for Xiao Ming's favor, and Xiao Ming's move to plant the fields is precisely because of the lack of farmland, and he guesses that he understands that doing business in Qingzhou can make more money than farming.

"Hahaha..." Xiao Ming laughed loudly and said, "Wang Yuanwai is really attentive, this king is currently lacking arable land, and this is really timely."

Wang Shijie laughed, it seems that the father and son guessed correctly again this time.

Qin Mu didn't look good, he sneered, and said to Xiao Ming: "Your Highness, I am not like Brother Wang, I have a lot of land in the six states, but I know that His Highness is lacking shipbuilding craftsmen, so I ship ships from all over the Great Yu Kingdom. The workshop has bought a thousand skilled carpenters, and I hope His Highness will accept it with a smile.”

"Okay." Xiao Ming patted the table and looked excited.

Although there are many slaves in the shipyard, there are basically no people who are proficient in carpentry skills, and it will take a long time to cultivate a group of carpenters. Now, a thousand skilled carpenters have solved his urgent needs.

However, the Wang family sent land, and the Qin family sent craftsmen. These two families worked so hard, presumably they knew what the next product was going to be.

He frowned, and it seemed that despite his best efforts to keep secrets, the Department of Equipment or the palace still went out to eat what was inside and outside.

Qin Mu showed a smug look, this time he and Wang Shijie were tied.

After thinking for a while in his heart, Xiao Ming said, "Since the two of you are so sincere, this king can't disappoint. This thing is called glass."

"Your Highness, can the grass people take a look?" Wang Shijie and Qin Mu said at the same time.

Xiao Ming observed the expressions of the two, and saw that the two were not surprised by the uncommon term glass, but directly passed it, which further confirmed his guess.

"sure."

Xiao Ming beckoned to the servant who was waiting outside, the servant left, turned around and brought a recently produced glass bottle.

Wang Shijie and Qin Mu's eyes were fixed on the glass bottle in the servant's hand for a moment, and their breathing gradually became heavy.

The two were amazed by the bottle, which was even more beautiful than jade, and they could already imagine how much profit this glass would make in their hands.

"His Royal Highness, this thing is really a work of magic, is your Highness really ready to sell it?" Wang Shijie said excitedly.

Qin Mu went on to say, "Your Highness, how should you measure the value of such a beautiful thing?"

"Since it's taken out, it's for sale, isn't the two of you here for this thing?" Xiao Ming said lightly.

Xiao Ming explained the matter, and Wang Shijie and Qin Mu didn't hide it. Wang Shijie said, "Your Highness, this fat water can't be drained to outsiders first."

"Brother Wang's words are very true, especially this ingenious thing." Qin Mu said.

The two of you said what you said, and what I said was nothing more than wanting to make the first pot of gold.

Now that Xiao Ming also has his own caravan, he naturally wants to make the first pot of gold, so this time he is not going to immediately auction the distribution rights of this glass.

Instead, they prepared to make the first batch of money after half a year and then auction the distribution rights to maximize profits.

He said: "I understand what you mean, but this glass is going to be handed over to the Qingzhou caravan, but since the two of you are so sincere, this king can allow you to take goods from the Qingzhou caravan, how about it?"

"Thank you, Your Highness!" The two were overjoyed.

After thanking them a few more times, the two left in turn. At this time, Xiao Ming's expression sank.

He sent someone to call Li San and Wang Xuan over.

"Your Highness." Li San and Wang Xuan arrived at the main hall at the same time. Seeing Xiao Ming's gloomy expression, the two of them felt uneasy.

Now Li San and Wang Xuan are both working in the Governor's Mansion, using their identities as servants to hide their true identities.

"I asked you to closely monitor the equipment department and the workshop area. Why is this glass thing leaked?" Xiao Ming said angrily, "Today this glass thing can be leaked, but tomorrow what can't be leaked in the equipment department, this Wang Xin worked hard. All the hard work is to make wedding dresses for others!"

Li San and Wang Xuan looked at each other, and Li San said, "Your Highness, the lower official can ensure that there are no mistakes in the workshop area."

"Wang Xuan dared to use his life to guarantee that there was no mistake in the equipment department. We are monitoring the people who Chen Qi and Chen Wenlong came into contact with, and they did not interact with the wealthy people."

Xiao Ming said angrily: "Promise, how can you guarantee it? The fact is that the glass issue was leaked ahead of time."

"Your Highness, the omission may be the palace?" Li San suddenly remembered something and said.

"The palace?" Xiao Ming asked, frowning.

"That's right, Your Highness, we're afraid to offend His Highness because we didn't put eyeliners in the palace," Li San said.

Xiao Ming's mood gradually calmed down. The safest place is often the most neglected place. Due to the guards of the palace, neither Li San nor Wang Xuan thought that there would be problems in this place.

"Now this is just a guess, you can go back." Xiao Ming said, but he was careless about this matter, "It's just that the secret guard's responsibilities are very important, this king gives you hundreds of thousands of taels of silver every month, this money is spent, Ben Wang wants to see the effect, now it's time to prove your ability, find out who leaked the secret." Xiao Ming said sternly.

Wang Xuan and Li San answered yes at the same time and exited the main hall.

Looking at the cardboard box that Wang Shijie brought in in the main hall, Xiao Ming suddenly felt a chill.

There are so many rich family's secret eyeliners buried beside him, this incident sounded the alarm for him.
