Xing Rong thought for a while and said, "Regardless of whether she is Her Majesty or not, treat her as an ordinary guest." He was almost certain that the other party was Her Majesty.
The last time Ren Baqian came to House Yunyan, it was Her Majesty who came to make trouble.
This time, Ren Baqian was followed by a woman dressed as a man who looked like Her Majesty. There was no doubt about it.
"They want to go to House Yunyan."
"Let them go. Let them go wherever they want to go. "
After a while, another report came in and said, "They chose the upper hall next to Minister Tong! They also want girls … "
Xing Rong stroked his head with his remaining hand and said, "Serve them good wine and food. Also, find a few girls who know etiquette and propriety."
After his subordinate left, Xing Rong sighed. He was exhausted!
He wasn't tired at first … but now he was!
"Sir, Minister Qin has brought some people to House Yunyan and wants to go to the Cloud Hall next to Minister Tong," someone reported shortly after.
Xing Rong rubbed his nose. Normally, he wouldn't be willing to go because Qin Chuan and Tong Zhengye would definitely fight if they met.
However, it didn't matter today.
There was someone more powerful upstairs. As long as he didn't anger that person, the others could do whatever they wanted.
Ren Baqian didn't care anymore after sending someone to take the girl away.
Whether she lived or died in the future, it was better than leaving her here. Even if she was killed, it would be straightforward.
After all, with her identity and the things that her master had been working hard for, he didn't want to see her being treated like this here. Even though he didn't even remember her name.
This matter was only a small interlude, so it naturally wouldn't be taken seriously by everyone present.
"Sir Ren, drink, drink. You and I are fated to meet each other at the doctor's office and have the same illness." Tong Zhengye laughed and poured wine for Ren Baqian.
Ren Baqian's face darkened. Could he not mention this? It was painful to think about it.
"Sir Tong and Sir Ren are sick?" Feng Hou raised his head and asked with a smile while carrying a girl in his arms.
"It's nothing. It's just a small problem," Ren Baqian quickly replied. He was afraid of being questioned, but he couldn't say it because it was too embarrassing.
Fortunately, Tong Zhengye didn't seem to want to publicize this matter, so he kept quiet. "Drink, drink!"
After three rounds of wine, Ge Yihong pushed Feng Hou away and moved closer to Ren Baqian. "Sir Ren, when are you going to take out the cotton that you mentioned previously?"
"Dayao doesn't lack fabric to ward off the cold. Even though cotton can be woven, it's not as important as filling one's stomach. At the very least, Dayao doesn't have to worry about food before we talk about cotton. "Ren Baqian shook his head.
"That's true, but Sir Ren, don't forget that even though you don't need to keep out the cold, it's still very hot to wear a leather coat. Many people have heat rashes, especially the aborigines.
If they could have cheap cloth, that would be great, and it would also be of great benefit to the common people.
A few days ago, the potatoes, pumpkins, and sweet potatoes were also harvested. Today was the third harvest, and the total harvest of the three was more than ten million catties.
Right now, they are being transported everywhere. This old man has already given the order that every city must plant the crops according to the requirements. Once the crops are harvested, it will be a hundred times, a thousand times more.
This plant could be planted three times a year. Even if a portion of it was used for food and the rest was distributed to be planted, there would be no need to worry about food shortage after a year. Sir Ren can take out the cotton for breeding and cultivation first. "
Ge Yihong explained to Ren Baqian clearly. He had all these things in mind, and he had finally caught Ren Baqian.
"If that's the case, wait for a few days. I will bring the cotton seeds and the planting method over," Ren Baqian said after some thought.
"What about the method of making wine?" After Ren Baqian finished speaking, Tong Zhengye immediately put his arm around Ren Baqian's shoulder and almost pulled him into his embrace. Ren Baqian quickly shrunk back and escaped.
"Don't think about the method of making wine for now. It won't be too late to talk about it when the imperial family has enough food to make wine at will," Ren Baqian immediately said.
"That ballista made of springs last time isn't bad either." Feng Hou looked over.
Ren Baqian's face darkened. It wasn't easy to drink with them. "Don't even think about it. Even if I told you, you wouldn't be able to make it, and even if you did, you wouldn't be able to use it. Moreover, the frontline is doing well now. Under the command of the walkie-talkie, the soldiers are moving like water, gathering and dispersing at will. Regardless of whether it's a long-range attack or a sudden attack, they can catch the enemy off guard.
In terms of individual strength, the aboriginals are much stronger than the soldiers of the Yun Nation, so we have a huge advantage. Making a bunch of ballistas will instead slow down the speed of the army. "
"If Sir Ren can take out the method of making that small ball, then we don't have to worry about this anymore." Feng Hou laughed. The Ministry of Works had been coveting the method of making grenades for a long time.
Unfortunately, Ren Baqian had already said that it couldn't be made.
They still believed what he said.
"Have you found the rubber that I want?" Ren Baqian turned his head and looked over.
"I have news that there is something similar to what you mentioned near the border of the Chen Nation. I have already sent someone to retrieve it. However, even with Her Majesty's order, you can't monopolize this thing, "Tong Zhengye said.
"This thing is very useful. Let's see if it meets the requirements first. If it's the kind that I want, it can make a lot of useful things, "Ren Baqian said.
Rubber had a wide range of uses, and it wasn't only used for hot air balloons. It could be used for sealing, shock absorption, manufacturing, and many other things.
Regardless of its usefulness or value, it could be said to be huge.
When the time came, it would be a small matter to give some things to the Ministry of Works. For example, rubber tires and shock absorption for carriages. Although these things could make money, they weren't important to him. However, they were very useful to the Ministry of Works and could be handed over.
He could also use rubber as an insulator to wrap the electric wires. As long as there were electric wires, more aspects could be put on the agenda.
"Good, good, good. Principal Ren is indeed not a stingy person." Tong Zhengye immediately laughed. As long as it was something that Ren Baqian had, it would be very useful.
"Good job, Sir Qin. Give us another jar!" Suddenly, a burst of laughter and jeering came from next door.
Tong Zhengye's laughter immediately stopped, and his eyebrows raised.
"It's Lian Liang from the Department of War," Feng Hou said as his ears twitched.
"Let's drink and ignore them." Tong Zhengye's expression relaxed slightly. He could naturally tell that it was someone from the Ministry of War.
However, he had important matters to discuss today and wasn't in the mood to care about them.
In fact, Tong Zhengye wanted to ask Ren Baqian about those street lamps in the palace, but Her Majesty didn't explain. The officials were speculating non-stop, and someone had to come out and say something.
Although they could suppress it, they couldn't suppress the situation for a while. Even the ministers of the six ministries had some complaints.
In other words, on account of their past friendship, he wanted to warn Ren Baqian.
No matter what, he shouldn't let Her Majesty be too extravagant.
This way, Ren Baqian could stand firm. Otherwise, no matter how much Her Majesty liked him, there would be trouble sooner or later if she criticized him too much.
How did the Hao Nation fall back then? Why did the aboriginals rebel? If it weren't for the Hao Nation's emperor's extravagance and dissipation, would there have been such a thing? These people hadn't forgotten.
This was his main purpose this time.
Bang! Bang! Bang! The sound of someone smashing the wall came from next door, causing Tong Zhengye's eyes to bulge like copper bells. His eyes were overflowing with murderous intent.
