Chapter 217 Why Are You So Smart Today

Although the jade pendant is not a tiger talisman, it does not have the power to mobilize soldiers.

But just these four characters "I am here in person" already represent the supreme imperial power.

No matter how puzzled Duan Lun was, he still understood Zhao Chen's position in the emperor's heart.

"Zhao Chen, if you need help in the future, just ask." Duan Lun and Zhao Chen said suddenly.

Even the title given to Zhao Chen is different from before.

It was obvious that he spoke this time because he wanted to make friends with Zhao Chen.

Li Ruoshuang heard this clearly and gently tugged on Zhao Chen's sleeve.

Duan Lun naturally felt even more determined when he saw Li Ruoshuang's small actions.

Even someone as cautious as Li Jing placed his bet on Zhao Chen.

So what can't Duan Lun do?

For a time, the smile on Duan Lun's face became even brighter.

"Master Shangshu, we have brought people here." Before Zhao Chen could say anything, he saw his officials coming with a large group of strong craftsmen.

"Zhao Chen, if you see what they need to do, just ask." Duan Lun and Zhao Chen said.

"Thank you, Mr. Duan." Zhao Chen nodded and walked up to the craftsmen.

"Everyone, this time I need to trouble you to make some small characters on the ink pad, similar to a seal, and the ones engraved are Yangwen."

"The number of words is about 2,500, and you need to carve them all within three days."

"Zhao Chen will not treat you badly. When this matter is over, he will pay each of you ten guans of silver as reward." Zhao Chen said to the craftsmen in front of him.

There are about fifty craftsmen, and Zhao Chen, who was originally heard to be here, is a strange person who has been talked about by Lord Shangshu all day long.

Although they had never seen the carvings of the nine golden dragons, the person who could be so remembered by Duan Lun, Minister of Industry, was definitely not an ordinary person.

Everyone wanted to see who Zhao Chen was.

Unexpectedly, it was a young man, and I couldn't help but feel a little suspicious.

There was suspicion on many people's faces.

But before they could say anything, Zhao Chen promised each of them ten gu of silver, which immediately confused them.

One person has ten guans, which is equivalent to them working here for several years.

And they only have to do it for three days.

What kind of bad luck did they have to encounter such a good thing?

"Lord County Marquis, are you telling the truth? That's nearly five hundred guan." A craftsman asked Zhao Chen with an extremely excited expression.

The rest of the craftsmen who came were also like this, and many of them even trembled slightly with excitement.

On weekdays, when they have nothing to do, they also take on some private work.

But there has never been such a generous owner as Zhao Chen.

The shot is close to 500 guan.

"Of course, it's just some small money." Zhao Chen nodded.

He earned more than 100,000 guan last time, but apart from the money given to Li Ruoshuang and the others, he still had about 100,000 guan left for the rest of his expenses.

A mere five hundred guan, what does it count?

Zhao Chen's words caused the expressions of everyone present to change slightly.

There are so many of them, how many of them can easily come up with 500 coins?

Even though Duan Lun was the Minister of Industry, he was twitching at this moment.

He secretly said that when he was Zhao Chen's age, he was still struggling with hunger and cold.

It's better for Zhao Chen, he can just shoot five hundred strings casually.

This is really annoying when comparing people to each other, and you have to throw away goods when comparing things.

But at this moment, Duan Lun was even more curious about what Zhao Chen wanted to do with these ink pads.

Clay carving is a high-end skill, and he has never seen a project that requires so many craftsmen to work together.

"Duan Shangshu is here, so of course I won't lie to you. Please follow this method to carve and bake." Zhao Chen smiled, took out a book from his arms, and handed it to the leader of the craftsmen.

The leading craftsman flipped through it and then said with a smile: "Don't worry, Lord County Marquis, we will do our best. Please sit down for a moment and we will make a sample for you right away."



The craftsmen went to make samples for Zhao Chen, and Zhao Chen followed Duan Lun to the resting place aside.

"Zhao Chen, are you making these things for printing?" Li Ruoshuang walked beside Zhao Chen and asked in a low voice, with a glint in his eyes.

Before, she was still curious as to why Zhao Chen didn't think of ways to deal with those who were against them.

Instead, he went to look for Duan Lun and came to such a place.

But when she heard that Zhao Chen asked the craftsmen to make small characters on ink pads, Li Ruoshuang reacted quickly.

Zhao Chen wants to do printing by himself.

"Why are you so smart today!" Zhao Chen turned back to look at Li Ruoshuang and said with a smile.

"I've always been so smart, okay? Stop looking down on others!" Li Ruoshuang snorted.

Duan Lun heard a voice coming from behind him, turned around and saw Li Ruoshuang following Zhao Chen with a shy look on her face.

My heart suddenly felt turbulent.

He was also an old man who served as a courtier of the Tang Dynasty, so he naturally knew that Li Ruoshuang had inherited the character of Hong Funu since she was a child.

If any of the noble disciples in Chang'an City encountered Li Ruoshuang, they would have to give in.

This is a ruthless man who dares to chase people ten streets across Chang'an City with a sword.

Now he actually looked so shy in front of Zhao Chen.

this……

Duan Lun even felt that Zhao Chen had extraordinary abilities, otherwise, how could a woman like Li Ruoshuang show such an expression in front of Zhao Chen.

"Zhao Chen, when the time comes, I will send a wedding invitation to so and so, and I will also send a gift to so and so." Duan Lun stopped and said to Zhao Chen.

"Haha, that's natural. I will personally deliver the invitation to Duan Shangshu's house when the time comes." Zhao Chen nodded with a smile.

Next to her, Li Ruoshuang knew that Duan Lun had seen her expression just now, and now she heard Zhao Chen agreeing with Duan Lun's words.

Feeling happy and ashamed at the same time, he gave Zhao Chen an angry look and ran into the resting place in front of him alone.



"Lao Cheng, have you done it over there?"

Outside the tavern, Qin Huaiyu wiped his sweat and asked silently to Cheng Chu, who was walking towards him.

"It's done, the venue has been found, where is Zhao Chen?" Cheng Chu nodded silently and sat down aside.

"Uncle Fu said he hasn't come back yet." Qin Huaiyu shook his head, looking worried.

He didn't understand at all why Zhao Chen wasn't in a hurry.

Others were bullying them right at their doorstep, and Zhao Chen actually asked them to do strange things.

Find a larger field and look for dead trees and straw.

What is this going to do?

"Old Cheng, the forces of the Five Surnames and Qiwang are too powerful. I'm worried that Zhao Chen can't defeat them!" Qin Huaiyu and Cheng Chumo said.

"You don't believe in Zhao Chen's ability?" Cheng Chumo frowned.

"That's not what I meant. It's just that Zhao Chen has just entered the court. Apart from a few of us, who is willing to help him?"

"But we ourselves can't help at all."

"If Zhao Chen is given enough time, I won't worry, but now..." Qin Huaiyu shook his head and sighed.

Five surnames and seven hopes are definitely not that simple.

Even the emperor always tolerated them.

How could Zhao Chen defeat them?

Hearing what Qin Huaiyu said, Cheng Chumo's face suddenly fell.

It was quiet again outside the tavern. The two of them sat on the steps, looking at the street in front of them, wondering what they were thinking.?
