Chapter 96 Worry
Of course, Zhao Yi believed in Wang Chi for a reason. This man was truly the strongest rich man in the late Qing Dynasty, not one of them.

Even Li Hongzhang called him "like the treasury of the Qing court". With this sentence alone, Zhao Yi was willing to give it a go.

Wang Chi was encouraged by Zhao Yi, and he was as excited as a chicken blood. Of course, encouragement alone is not enough.

"Well, Wang Chi, I will go to the housekeeper later. I have already said that I will allocate a thousand gold to you. I don't care how you use the money. You are fully responsible. As long as the two factories are closed in three days Can start work, print a book for Gu!"

The conditions Zhao Yi gave were not unreasonable, and there were three days. After thinking about it in secret, Wang Chi immediately kowtowed and said: "Please rest assured, Your Highness, the slave will not sleep for these three days, but also let the factory start!"

Wang Chi, who has integrated into this era, naturally knows what it means to make paper and print in this era.

With top-notch machines and equipment, and the full support of the prince, Wang Chi believes that he can easily change this era in the future!
After Yingzheng returned to the palace, he became more and more excited as he thought about it, and at the same time he was very nervous. Zhang Han was asked to lead the elite of the Black Ice Terrace to protect the Prince's Mansion. At the same time, he was required to report all the movements of the Prince's Mansion to him at any time.

As a result, Zhang Han made the arrangement, and after going out for a trip, Ying Zheng couldn't wait to ask Zhang Han, "How is it, what will the prince do today?"

Zhang Han looked puzzled, but he immediately cupped his hands and said, "Reporting to Your Majesty, the prince did not leave the mansion today, and Hei Bing in the prince's mansion reported that the prince also went to the courtyard today to meet a retainer from Zhaozhuang, and Not out of the house."

"A retainer from Zhaozhuang?" Ying Zheng looked surprised, "Since when did this kid have a retainer? What is he doing after he goes to the courtyard?"

"The prince's retainer is called Wang Chi. His subordinates have thoroughly investigated him, and his identity and background are fine." Zhang Han continued to reply.

"But Hei Bing was in the backyard, and unexpectedly discovered that there was another world in the Prince's Mansion. In the corner of the backyard that Heibing had just inspected, two large workshops popped up. It is written as 'Printing Workshop'."

"But when Hei Bing entered the two workshops, he couldn't tell what was placed in those workshops."

Zhang Han looked puzzled, but Ying Zheng immediately became excited. He immediately knew that the workshops that the Black Ice Warrior saw must be the paper mill and printing factory mentioned by Zhao Yi.

Even Yingzheng felt dizzy when he saw the weird and exquisite machinery and equipment in his mind, let alone the Black Ice Warrior. Unexpectedly, Zhao Yi took over the printing factory and paper factory so quickly, without anyone knowing what to do. Jue moved into his back yard.

"Who is helping the prince to take care of those two workshops now? Is the prince taking care of them himself?" Ying Zheng asked calmly.

Zhang Han slowly shook his head and said, "That's not the case. His Royal Highness has always stayed in the front yard of the Prince's Mansion. He almost never goes to the back yard except for leisure time. He is not even willing to go to court. How could he manage two workshops himself?"

Even Zhang Han knew Zhao Yi's nature!Ying Zheng couldn't help but blush, why did he have such a lazy prince, he was too lazy to cramp, and he himself too, how could he think that Zhao Yi went to take care of the two workshops himself.

"Is that Zhang Cang, or Sima Xin?" Two names popped up in Ying Zheng's mind. At this stage, there are only two talents available around Zhao Yi.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, it is not Lord Zhang and Lord Sima, but the retainer Wang Chi just mentioned to His Majesty!"

Zhang Han took out a roll of bamboo slips and presented it in front of Yingzheng, "I found out that Wang Chi was a businessman before he became a retainer of the prince, and he seemed to be doing quite a big business."

Yingzheng unfolded the bamboo slips in doubt. It was written on the same side, which was a detailed description of Wang Chi's three generations of family, business dealings, and how he became Zhao Yi's retainer.

Ying Zheng glanced through it quickly, and his face became gloomy. He was not optimistic about the person Zhao Yi had chosen.

A merchant, even if his business is doing well, even if he is a retainer, he should not entrust such an important place to his management!Ying Zheng was not optimistic about Wang Chi, thinking that Zhao Yi was a little hasty.

Zhang Han has a different opinion, "Your Majesty, let alone the relationship between Wang Chi and the crown prince. From my subordinates' point of view, whether it's papermaking or printing, once a cheap book comes out, it will definitely cause dissatisfaction from the aristocratic family."

"If this matter is handed over to any official in Xianyang City, there is a possibility of leaking the news, and there will be big trouble at that time!"

Ying Zheng frowned, Zhang Han's words were reasonable, once Zhao Yi completed the paper-making and printing business, it would touch the bottom line of the aristocratic family, and it would definitely arouse their reaction, maybe anything could happen!

Thinking of this, Ying Zheng was furious, and couldn't help but slapped the case and said: "The prince is doing something himself, I see who dares to make irresponsible remarks, what happened to the family? How dare they treat the prince? This is Xianyang City, can it be possible?" Can they still rebel!"

Seeing that Ying Zheng was angry, Zhang Han quickly fell to his knees, "Your Majesty calm down, I just consider the worst in everything, please forgive me!"

"Get up!" Ying Zheng waved his hand, "I don't blame you, it's because I didn't think carefully about this matter, or because the crown prince knows how to keep a low profile, which is a little bit better than me!"

Uh... Zhang Han almost laughed out loud when he heard this, thinking to himself: Is it just a little stronger?Not necessarily!

Recently, Ying Zheng shows himself off at every turn, and he especially likes to put on a show. It's obviously vanity. If the prince was like Ying Zheng, he would have been eaten to the bone.

"As I said before, Hei Bing is near the Prince's Mansion. Arrange more people to protect him, especially in the back courtyard. Anyone who dares to spy will be killed without mercy. There is no need to report to me."

Ying Zheng has already launched a murderous plan at this time, whoever dares to affect his grand plan and great cause will only have a dead end!
"I obey the order!" Zhang Han immediately bowed his hands and agreed, feeling a sense of awe in his heart.

At this moment, Zhang Han knew that the workshop in the courtyard behind the Prince's Mansion was already Ying Zheng's apex, and if there was anything wrong, Ying Zheng would have the heart to wash Xianyang city with blood!
On the other side, after Wang Chi took a thousand gold coins from the treasury of the Prince's Mansion, he quickly maximized his business ability.

On the same day, he prepared all the raw materials and summoned enough workers.

According to Zhao Yi's request, all workers have contracts of prostitution, and we must thank the evil old society here.

In the current Qin Dynasty, there are many people who sell their bodies to bury their fathers, and there are even special human trafficking organizations. Wang Chi can recruit enough workers without any effort.
