Start by scolding the empress

Chapter 29 Saying Cao Cao Cao Cao Arrives
Of course, Chen Yi did not forget to explain the overall principle to the craftsmen.

In such a short period of time, Chen Yi conquered the admiration of a group of craftsmen, all of whom were craftsmen.

His temper is also very straightforward, whoever is powerful will naturally listen to him, which is why Chen Yi has gained the trust of everyone in the Ministry of Industry in such a short period of time.

You know, this is very important.

This is not modern times. In this country of Dawu, which is all handmade, it must be made with tools for drilling wells.

But it is not easy.

You know, there is an old saying from the ancients.

A slight difference is a thousand miles away.

This sentence can not only be applied to philosophy, but also to craftsmen.

So in the past few days, Chen Yi took advantage of the fact that the empress didn't have to go to the morning court by herself, and during the period of vacation given to him, he spent all day in the Ministry of Industry, hanging out with craftsmen.

The empress had a few days of cleanliness.

This day, when she returned to the study, the Empress suddenly remembered that she hadn't seen Chen Yi for a long time, so she asked Eunuch Li casually.

Eunuch Li immediately reported respectfully.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, during this period, Chen Shilang has been in the Ministry of Industry and has not gone anywhere."

When the empress heard this, her face was full of doubts: "The Ministry of Industry? What is he going to do? Wait!! It's not what I thought, is it? Why hasn't he given up yet?! Why is this a single-minded person?"

Eunuch Li didn't dare to say anything, he bowed his head and remained silent.

The empress suddenly felt a headache, and couldn't help raising her hand and pinching her temples.

Coincidentally, at this time, the little eunuch who was on duty outside came in.

He leaned into Eunuch Li's ear and said a few words.

Eunuch Li was stunned for a moment, and then secretly glanced at the empress who was melancholy. For some reason, Eunuch Li suddenly felt a little funny.

But who is Eunuch Li?So he didn't reveal his emotions.

Instead, he nodded silently, then waved his hand to the little eunuch, letting him go down.

"What's the matter, Eunuch Li, if you're busy, just go down."

Naturally, the empress saw the little eunuch who came in to report, and thought that something in the palace needed to be decided by Eunuch Li, so she said it casually without taking it seriously.

Eunuch Li bowed his head respectfully and said.

"Your Majesty! Just now, there was a word from outside that Chen Yi, the fourth-rank servant of the Ministry of Officials, is asking to see you."

The empress raised her face with a confused expression and almost accidentally knocked over the inkstone next to her. Eunuch Li, who had quick eyes and quick hands, caught her in time and was able to save her.

"Chen Yi? You've come to see me again, and you've probably come to ask for money again. Just tell me that I'm missing, and tell him to go home and recuperate, and by the way, face the wall and think about the past!"

In the last sentence, the empress can be said to be full of spirit.

"I didn't expect that His Majesty would be so ignorant of my minister. I will apologize to Your Majesty."

In the blink of an eye, Chen Yi had already walked in. When the empress saw that she couldn't get out, she could only helplessly wave to Eunuch Li and let him leave first.

The empress stared uncertainly at Chen Yi who was saluting below.

Chen Yi also felt a little helpless at this time, and there was a trace of anger mixed with the helplessness. Chen Yi couldn't help but rolled his eyes in his heart, thinking that he was willing to come.

Chen Yi felt that he and the empress were at odds. Every time they met, either he would get angry or the empress would get angry.

Anyway, there is no time when two people live in peace.

When Chen Yi came to see the empress, Chen Yi had been thinking about it for a long time. During this period, Chen Yi had basically become familiar with the craftsmen from the Ministry of Works about the tools for digging wells.

The basic principles have been thoroughly understood by the craftsmen, so it is natural to move on to the next stage.

That's production.

Even though Chen Yi made fantastic claims about the effect, and the craftsmen all trusted Chen Yi, they had not seen the real finished product, so everything was still in the fantasy stage.

In fact, during this time, Chen Yi had already begun to teach craftsmen how to make some small parts of tools.

But to manufacture it in large quantities, or in other words, to complete the entire production of this tool, a large amount of silver is still required.

But the Ministry of Industry has not received much attention from the Empress.

So every time the Empress allocates funds, the Ministry of Industry is often the one that is ignored, and because of this, the Ministry of Industry's life is tight and there is not much reserve funds.

Chen Yi is very satisfied with the research results of the Ministry of Industry and the craftsmen, and it is basically certain.

It is completely possible to make the well digging tool he wants.

So now things have reached a dead end again, that is, the silver, there is no other way, Chen Yi promised the Minister of Industry before, and he will find a solution for the silver, which is why the empress saw Chen Yi today.

The empress said lazily, "Since you know you shouldn't show up, then go back."

Chen Yi really rolled his eyes this time.

Fortunately, Chen Yi kept bowing his head in salute, and the empress did not see it.

Chen Yi took a deep breath, and said in a voice full of emotion.

"Your Majesty, how can you say that? I am now a minister of the Great Wu Dynasty. I do everything for the people and for Your Majesty. I didn't expect that I would get His Majesty's disgust and disgust. It should be that Chen Chen didn't do a good enough job. "

The empress did not react for a moment.

Feeling that Chen Yi's sudden change of painting style was wrong, the Empress froze on the spot.

"Yes, that must be the case. It's because I'm not doing well enough. It's because I'm not good enough. There's no way to solve the drought in Longxi in the shortest possible time. But don't worry, Your Majesty, I already have a solution."

After Chen Yi finished speaking, he raised his head and looked at the empress with bright eyes.

The empress stared at Chen Yi suspiciously, wondering if she had changed, but was blinded by Chen Yiliang's shining eyes.

The empress couldn't help it, and made a smart move.

It seemed that the empress felt that she was actually a little timid, and coughed slightly: "Get up, get up and answer the question."

Chen Yi immediately said emotionally: "Yes, thank you, Your Majesty."

After Chen Yi finished speaking, he blinked slightly to make his eyes look redder.

The empress had returned to normal at this time: "You just said that there is a way to solve the drought problem in Longxi. Is that true? Let me tell you, how to solve it?"

"Chen, I have been in the Ministry of Industry for a while, studying with those craftsmen. The blueprints that I submitted before have achieved some success recently, and I believe that they will definitely be successful."

When the empress heard this, her eyelids twitched, as if she had a bad premonition.

"Really? Chen Shilang did a good job, very good, then go back and continue to work hard."

When Chen Yi heard the empress say this, a sarcastic smile rose from the corner of his mouth, and then he immediately adjusted the expression on his face.
