Chapter 233
"Hold them all up." Xiao Hong asked the bank staff to help the people who were lying on the ground, and said: "I, I came to you today to help you solve this problem."

"These three are the three largest merchants in Xianyang. They are also going out of the customs to trade colored glaze this time. The goods in your hands can go out with them." Xiao Hong pointed to Di Jian and the three of them.

When everyone heard Xiao Hong's words, they knelt down excitedly, and said excitedly with tears: "Thank you Wu'an for your kindness."

"However, although these three merchants can sell your glass for you, they still have to charge a part of the fee." Xiao Hong looked at the crying people and said, "For specific matters, Di Jian, the three of you and these Let’s connect, people, but don’t be too greedy.”

Xiao Hong still reminded Di Jian and the others to prevent them from opening their mouths and asking for too high a price, which would cause these common people to work in vain.

"Please don't worry, Your Majesty, we will definitely take care of the colored glaze in the hands of these common people," Di Jian said with a bow.

"Well, then let's discuss it among ourselves." Xiao Hong got up and walked out of the meeting room.

"Farewell to Mr. Wu An." The rest bowed and watched Xiao Hong walk out of the conference room.

"Farewell to Mr. Wu'an." Shen Kuo stood at the gate of the Daqin Central Bank and watched Xiao Hong's carriage disappear completely at the corner before turning back to the bank.

"Your Majesty, where are you going now?" Xuanwu Wei, who was driving, asked.

"Go to the household department" Xiao Hong's voice came from the carriage.

"Here..." Xuanwu Wei took the order, turned around on the street in his carriage, and headed for the household department.

……

"Your Majesty is here." Xuanwuwei lifted the curtain, put down a stool beside the carriage, and the rest of Xuanwuwei lined up around the carriage.

"En..." Xiao Hong got up and got off the carriage. At this time, Hou Guan, Minister of the Household Department, also heard the news of Lord Wu An's visit, and led several servants of the Household Department out of the yamen to welcome Xiao Hong.

"Refer to Lord Wu'an" Hou Guan led a few servants from the household department to bow and salute.

"Hou Shangshu is exempt from the ceremony." Xiao Hong helped Hou Guan up.

"Mr. Wu An invites" Hou Guan greeted Xiao Hong and walked into the yamen of the household department.

"Hou Shangshu, this household office of yours is very impressive." Xiao Hong walked into the household office and saw a huge rockery, and there was a pool of clear water in the pool, which was obviously changed frequently.

The Hubu Yamen is located on the northwest side of Xianyang Palace. It is a huge courtyard with five entrances and five exits. There are lieutenant soldiers serving as guards at the gate.

"Mr. Wu An was joking, how can this small courtyard of our household department be worthy of the word majestic?" Hou Guanbei said with a smile.

"Hou Shangshu, you are too modest." Xiao Hong walked into the house where Hou Guan usually works, sat down in the chief seat, and said, "My lord, it's not a big deal to come to the household department today, just to ask Hou Guan Shangshu, when will the land that His Majesty bestowed on the Daqin Royal Academy be allocated?"

"Back to Lord Wu'an. At this time, the household department has received His Majesty's orders. The officials in charge of the measurement have been waiting for a long time. As long as Lord Wu'an needs it, the next official will send someone to measure the land with Lord Wu'an immediately." Hou Guangong cupped his hands and said. .

"Okay, it's still early, Hou Shangshu should send someone out of the city with me now," Xiao Hong said directly.

"Here, Mr. Wu An, please come later to make arrangements." Hou Guan bowed and left the house to arrange for the surveying officials who followed Xiao Hong out of the city.

……

Hou Guan didn't make Xiao Hong wait too long, so he brought six officials from the household department in charge of measurement to Xiao Hong, and said: "Mr. Wu An, these six people are veterans of the household department's land measurement. , will definitely satisfy Mr. Wu An."

"Okay, thank you Hou Shangshu for worrying." Xiao Hong got up and walked out of the household office with six officials who measured the land, and all six of them were riding horses.

"What time is it now?" Xiao Hong asked standing beside the carriage.

"Report to Your Majesty, now at Shenchu ​​(three o'clock in the afternoon)" a Xuanwu guard replied with a bow.

"It's getting late, I won't take the carriage anymore, I'll go out of the city on horseback" Xiao Hong asked Xuanwuwei to bring the carriage back to the mansion, while he himself took six Xuanwuwei on horseback and the surveying officials from the Ministry of Household out of the city.

In half an hour, Xiao Hong and his party arrived at the location where the land was to be measured. If it was only half an hour away from Daqin Royal Academy on foot, it was already very close.

"Jun Wu'an, I wonder what your requirements are for the measured land?" an official from the Ministry of Household Affairs stepped forward and asked.

"The requirement is to have more trees, and the more complex the terrain, the better." Xiao Hong said his request.

"Here, the lower official has found out, please ask Mr. Wu An later." The official bowed and retreated.

Soon the six land surveyors from the household department took out the Xianyang border map of the household department to write and draw on it, and soon determined a suitable piece of land according to Xiao Hong's request, but the specific size of the land still needs to be determined. The six officials took measurements on the spot.

"The three of you are responsible for measuring here, and the three of us are responsible for measuring here." After dividing the work, the six people took out their tools and cooperated with each other to measure the land.

It took the six people an hour and a half to measure [-] mu of land, but the land they measured was a huge square, and they only needed to measure two sides of the same length to confirm it.

"Wu'an Jun, this is the measured land of [-] acres." An official showed the measured land on the Xianyang territory map.

"Not bad, not bad." From the map, Xiao Hong can see that many of the [-] mu of land are forests, and there are many small hills, which obviously meet Xiao Hong's requirements.

"Since Mr. Wu An has confirmed that it is correct, please sign your name here." The official took over the land account book from the person behind him, registered the ownership of the land on it, and handed it to Xiao Hong.

"Wrong, this land belongs not to me, but to the Royal Academy of Qin." Xiao Hong saw the official registering the [-] acres in his name.

Although Qin Shihuang wouldn't care if the [-] mu of land was registered under Xiao Hong's name, but Xiao Hong was unwilling to do so. The academy belonged to the academy, and he made it very clear.

"Please forgive me, Mr. Wu'an, it's my negligence of duty." The official hastily bowed to admit his mistake.

"It doesn't need to be like this, just change it and it will be fine." Xiao Hong signaled the official not to be nervous. He just asked him to register again, and Xiao Hong signed his name.

At this time, the [-] mu of land became the land of the Daqin Royal Academy. Except for the Daqin Royal Academy, no one can touch a single thing on the [-] mu of land, not even a blade of grass.

"come"

"Your Majesty"

"Send these six household officials back to the city"

"What about you, Your Majesty?"

"I, you don't have to worry about it"

"Here..." Xuanwu Wei bowed to accept the order and escorted the six officials to Xianyang City.
