Chapter 148 After all, Yang Zi is his most beloved daughter.
After taking a sip of herbal tea, Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Gao and said solemnly: "After Zhao Shu recognizes his ancestor and returns to the clan, I want Fusu to know that I intend to betroth Yangzi to Zhao Shu."
"Your Majesty, this..." At this moment, Zhao Gao was startled.
He is not a political idiot and naturally knows what it means when this news is spread.
This means that Zhao Shu and Fusu are very likely to be in opposition. Zhao Shu does not know the situation, but Fusu will misunderstand it.
"Hu Hai and others are too young to put pressure on Fusu, but Zhao Shu is just right."
A look of helplessness flashed across Ying Zheng's eyes: "I hope that with the pressure from Zhao Shu, Fusu can make some progress!"
"promise."
Hearing this, Zhao Gao nodded in agreement. He knew that after Ying Zheng had finished speaking, there was no room for turning back.
Seeing Zhao Gao nodding, Ying Zheng warned, "Remember, only Fusu knows about this matter, and no one else can know about it."
"Especially Zhao Shu and Yang Zi!"
"promise."
Watching Zhao Gao retreat, Ying Zheng rubbed his brows and couldn't help but feel a little tired.
Today, for the sake of Fu Su, he did not hesitate to sacrifice Yang Zi's reputation. This made Ying Zheng hate Fu Su and at the same time feel guilty towards Yang Zi.
After all, Yangzi is his most beloved daughter.
........
What happened in the palace did not affect Zhao Shu at this time. He got Ying Zheng's consent and roped in Li Si. This made Zhao Shu very interested in the soap business.
He knew in his heart that with Li Si and Qin Wangzheng as his backers, he could calmly deal with those hungry wolves who came smelling benefits.
"Head of the family, Meng Fan, the deacon of the Hidden Palace, is here." Tie Qi walked into the study and handed the Hidden Palace Order to Zhao Shu.
Taking the Hidden Palace Order from Tie Qi, Zhao Shu played with it: "Bring the person in, let me see you."
"promise."
Tie Qi walked out, brought Meng Fan in, and said to Zhao Shu, "My subordinate, Meng Fan, has met the palace master."
Hearing this, Zhao Shu looked at Meng Fan and nodded: "Sit down!"
"promise."
Meng Fan took his seat and turned to Zhao Shu, saying, "I wonder if the palace master has any orders when meeting his subordinates?"
Meng Fan looked respectful. Although he didn't know why the Hidden Palace Order was in Zhao Shu's hand, according to the rules of the Hidden Palace, whoever holds the Hidden Palace Order is the master of the Hidden Palace.
He took a look at Meng Fan, who looked like an ordinary middle-aged man. Such a person, at first glance, was not impressive at all, but Zhao Shu knew very well that the more ordinary some people are, the more dangerous they are.
What's more, the other party is the deacon of the Hidden Palace. From this point, we can see that the other party is not simple.
"Firstly, I am meeting with Deacon Meng, and secondly, there are indeed some matters that need to be dealt with by the Hidden Palace."
Upon hearing this, Meng Fan quickly stood up, saluted towards the edict, and said, "Please give me the palace master's instructions."
Zhao Shu looked at Meng Fan and smiled, saying: "From today on, we will mobilize people from the Hidden Palace to form a chamber of commerce."
"The requirements of this chamber of commerce spread from Xianyang to the entire Qin Dynasty, and branches were first established in Xinzheng, Handan, Daliang, and other capitals."
"In addition, we will build a workshop in the Hidden Palace and draw people from the Hidden Palace to make something called soap."
"I will tell you exactly how to make it, but the secret recipe must not be revealed, otherwise you will die."
At this point, Zhao Shi paused slightly: "When the Hidden Palace is finished, it will be handed over to the Chamber of Commerce for sale. I will tell you one by one the specific method of sale."
"Now, do you have any questions?"
Hearing this, Meng Fan nodded and said to Zhao Shu: "Palace Master, I have no problem with my subordinates. There are many craftsmen and manpower in the Hidden Palace."
"There are also people who are familiar with the Ji Ran family, so there should be no problem."
"Um."
Hearing Meng Fan's words, Zhao Shu couldn't help but be overjoyed. With the Hidden Palace, he would be able to save many people from trouble.
Moreover, there are probably master builders who built palaces in the Hidden Palace. In this way, he can also use the people from the Hidden Palace to build his mansion.
With this thought, Zhao Shu turned to Meng Fan and said, "After you go back, ask for ten people each who are proficient in Ji Ran's family and ordinary craftsmen to come and I will train them."
"At the same time, in the Hidden Palace, the more master craftsmen there are who are good at building palaces, let them come to my house."
"As for you, after you return to the Hidden Palace, immediately set up a chamber of commerce and build a workshop. If you need everything you need, first misappropriate the money and food from the Hidden Palace."
"When there are profits, I will count them as part of the Hidden Palace."
"promise."
Meng Fan nodded in agreement and turned around to leave. He did not refute Zhao Shu's words, nor did he ask whether Zhao Shu would definitely make a profit?
Because Zhao Shu holds the Hidden Palace Order, he must be King Qin's confidant. In this case, any problem will not be a problem.
What's more, with Zhao Shu and Qin Wangzheng here, even if it fails, the Hidden Palace will not lose its share.
Although Meng Fan is a member of the Hidden Palace, the Hidden Palace also has its own information channels, and he is still clear about Zhao Shu.
Because of this, he was so respectful, because he could see that Zhao Shu would soar into the sky in the future.
They followed Zhao Shu just as they followed Qin Wangzheng, or even better than following Qin Wangzheng.
Because Qin Wangzheng had the Black Ice Platform and the Iron Eagle Warriors in his hands, their existence in the Hidden Palace was somewhat marginal.
This is also the reason why the Hidden Palace has not received much attention from the government of the Qin Dynasty.
Because the Qin Wangzheng's ambition is to destroy the country and unify the Central Plains, and the Black Ice Platform and the Iron Eagle Warriors play a greater role in this than the Hidden Palace.
Watching Meng Fan leave, Zhao Shu couldn't help but nodded. He was very satisfied to see Meng Fan.
From what he learned about Tie Qi and Meng Fan, there are probably many talented people and strangers emerging in this hidden palace.
In this case, it is more suitable for you.
When he thought of this, Zhao Shu couldn't help but think of Qin Wangzheng. Maybe Qin Wangzheng handed over the Hidden Palace to him because he wanted to enter the Shaofu official office.
And this time he sent soap, which attracted Qin Wangzheng's attention.
No matter which one it was, Zhao Shu was very satisfied. In this way, he could conduct some research even if he did not go to the Shaofu official office.
With the Hidden Palace Order in hand, he is the master of the Hidden Palace. As long as there is no riot, he will have no objection to anything he does in the Hidden Palace.
Zhao Shu couldn't help but feel happy when he thought of this, and said to Tie Qi beside him: "Tie Qi, pack up and follow me out!"
"Brother Li You, you want to show me Chu girls' thin waists and Zhao girls' beauty. When the time comes, I will make arrangements for you too!"
Hearing this, Tie Qi couldn't help but be overjoyed and smiled honestly at Zhao Shu: "Master, you can have this. It's best to let him pay for it. We don't have much food in the house."
As soon as these words came out, Zhao Shu couldn't help but give a thumbs up.
