Princess, he is rich enough to rival the country

The sentence "I am Princess Li", directly shocked the two brothers, who were a little speechless.

indeed.

What coercion is not coercion?

Gu Yanshu is Princess Li, a figure below one person and above ten thousand people in Tianqi.

As far as Prince Li dotes on the concubine, he has already left the capital, and he still puts his most trusted confidant next to Concubine Li, protecting him thoughtfully, who would dare to come to Tai Sui to break ground?

At this time, Wen Qingxiao realized that he and Gu Yanshu were in the same sympathy?

He doesn't deserve it at all!

At least when it comes to being an official, he is unwilling, but Gu Yanshu is afraid to avoid it.

Wen Qingyan was also aware of this, and when she lowered her eyes to see the letter in Gu Yanshu's hand, she immediately felt a little sorry:

"What happened this time was due to my lack of consideration. I hope His Highness will forgive me."

"The Fourth Young Master also had good intentions, but I didn't make it clear to the Fourth Young Master."

Gu Yanshu is not a person who makes trouble out of no reason. Although this handwritten order is not what he wanted, he knows that he is more responsible for this matter.

Not to mention that the Wen family had expressed their attitude yesterday, and would fully support Prince Li's residence.

Even if the Wen family gave him a negative answer yesterday, according to the way of a gentleman that the Wen family has been learning all along, it is impossible for them to take the credit of others for themselves.

Knowing that Gu Yanshu was indeed not angry because of the written order, Wen Qingyan let go of his mouth slightly, and at the same time asked again:

"Then what is your Highness thinking now?"

The emperor's handbook has been issued, and the matter is a foregone conclusion. He has no way to make the emperor take back the handbook, and now he can only fully cooperate with Gu Yanshu's thoughts and make up for it.

If Gu Yanshu did not obey the edict and did not intervene in the road construction, he would try his best to make it up to the emperor.

Gu Yanshu also heard Wen Qingyan's implication, but after a little thought, he still rejected his kindness:

"The handbook has been issued, so follow the emperor's wishes."

Although Gu Yanshu is afraid to avoid the matter of becoming an official, but the construction of cement roads is of great importance, and he also has a lot of selfishness.

Originally, Gu Yanshu was also worried that Wen Qingyan and the people in the household department didn't understand the contracting system, so he made a mistake.

But the matter of building roads is not something that Prince Li's family can undertake alone, even if Gu Yanshu is worried, he can only hand it over to the court.

In addition to the reasons he told Wen Qingyan, there was one more thing when he handed over this proposal to Wen Qingyan.

Even if he has a good relationship with Wen Qingxiao, and the Wen family is in charge of the matter, he can at least learn about the progress of the matter from Wen Qingxiao's mouth, and he can also put forward opinions because of the relationship between the two parties.

Now the emperor allowed him to intervene in this matter, after all, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages, naturally there is no reason to refuse.

While Wen Qingyan was surprised that Gu Yanshu would agree, he also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

After all, the matter of road construction is so important that there is no room for mistakes.

This plan was produced by Gu Yanshu, so he naturally knows the details better than others.

Gu Yanshu is willing to help, and the pressure of coming to the household department will be much less.

Since he agreed to help, and the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Industry are jointly responsible for this matter, Gu Yanshu will naturally follow Wen Qingyan to the Ministry of Household Affairs to discuss with other officials.

Originally, Gu Yanshu thought that when he came to the household department, he would inevitably be excluded by some officials.

After all, the household department is all from the First Prince, and he is Princess Li, so it's strange that those people can see him pleasing to the eye.

Unexpectedly, after arriving at the household department, Gu Yanshu realized that his worries were completely unnecessary.

Indeed, quite a few officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs were extremely unwelcome to him, and looked at him with unfriendly eyes.

Among them, the right servant of the household department is the most obvious.

However, before these people opened their mouths to say anything, Wen Qingyan glanced over, and everyone shut their mouths.

Although the eyes looking at Gu Yanshu still had a trace of unkindness, there was also a trace of respect and fear in the end.

Seeing this, Gu Yanshu couldn't help but teased Wen Qingyan in a low voice:

"I didn't realize that Fourth Young Master was so majestic at times?"

Perhaps it was because of the heirs of poetry and books, the sons of the Wen family always gave people a sense of spring breeze.

Compared with officials, these princes are more like elegant scholars.

So now the scene where Wen Qingyan can frighten his subordinates with just one look really surprised Gu Yanshu.

"It made His Highness laugh."

Wen Qingyan smiled in a low voice without denying it.

When he first arrived two months ago, he received a lot of "care" from these officials.

If you don't use any tricks, how can you gain a firm foothold in the Ministry of Finance?

Perhaps it was some excessive force at the beginning, which left a shadow in these people's hearts, which led to the current situation.

However, Wen Qingyan didn't care about this point, after all, their honest appearance now made Wen Qingyan much more comfortable than the previous appearance of finding fault with him whenever they saw him.

In addition, the officials of the Ministry of Industry have a much better attitude towards Gu Yanshu.

Not only that, but Gu Yanshu could even see a trace of respect and eagerness in the eyes of some officials.

If Gu Yanshu had to find an explanation to describe the way those officials looked at him, it would be like those star chasing girls in the previous life when they saw their idols.

Although there was no malice, Gu Yanshu always felt a little panicked as the person who was stared at urgently.

Regarding this, Wen Qingyan, who knew the reason, explained to Gu Yanshu in a low voice:

"The gadgets that His Highness made a few days ago, as well as movable type printing, floor heating, and cement this time, are very interesting to the Ministry of Industry."

It is said that when they saw the design drawings of movable type printing and floor heating, many people in the Ministry of Industry exclaimed that they were wonderful.

If he hadn't been concerned about Gu Yanshu's identity, the Minister of the Ministry of Industry even wanted to go directly to Prince Li's Mansion to have a good discussion with Gu Yanshu.

Now that I have finally met a real person, can these people not be excited?

Knowing the reason, Gu Yanshu looked at those people's eyes again, and felt much more at ease.

Seeing that Gu Yanshu noticed him, the Minister of the Ministry of Industry was agitated and wanted to go forward to have a chat with Gu Yanshu.

Among the six ministries, the Ministry of Industry has the lowest status and the least power.

Everyone in the Ministry of Industry was naturally dissatisfied with this matter, but there was nothing they could do.

After all, compared with the other ministries, the contribution of the Ministry of Industry to the imperial court is indeed the smallest one.

But after looking at the wonderful objects that came out of Prince Li's mansion, Minister of the Ministry of Industry felt that he had seen the dawn.

If in the Ministry of Industry, there can be someone like Princess Li who has endless ideas and can continue to contribute to Tianqi, wouldn't the status of the Ministry of Industry be improved just around the corner?

But Gu Yanshu is also the concubine Li, so a man can't interfere with the affairs of the court when he enters the back house.

After realizing this, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry felt quite regretful in his heart. He originally thought that he would not be able to realize what he wanted in his life.

Who knew that there would be a turning point now?

Now the emperor's attitude towards Princess Li has obviously loosened, if he discusses with Princess Li again, wouldn't it be just around the corner to let Princess Li come to work in the Ministry of Industry?

Who is Gu Yanshu?

He was already very good at observing people's hearts, not to mention that the minister of the Ministry of Industry was about to write the words "this is a treasure, we have to get people to our Ministry of Industry" on his face!

Even if Dang spoke in front of Minister of the Ministry of Industry, he would not leave him the slightest chance:

"Father attaches great importance to road construction, and there is not much time in this hall, so I will not greet you, let's go straight to the topic."

Gu Yanshu has said that, what else can others say?

Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry could only temporarily put away his thoughts, sat back in his seat, and began to discuss the matter of road construction.

This meeting was the first time that Wen Qingyan worked with Gu Yanshu seriously.

It was also through this meeting that Wen Qingyan finally saw the power of Gu Yanshu's mind.

Regarding the "Concrete Road Contracting System Plan" given by Gu Yanshu, the officials of the Ministry of Household Affairs once held a small meeting.

As a result, before discussing for a long time, several people encountered the first problem:

Where can I find businessmen who are willing to contract to build cement roads?

Although the benefits of this matter are not small, the upfront investment is also not small.

How can it be determined who can take out the money and who is willing to give the money?

If one by one came to discuss, the speed would be too slow!

After hearing this question, Gu Yanshu directly gave the official who asked the question a "Are you an idiot?" look, and then said:

"What's so difficult about it? Don't you guys usually read the daily newspaper? Go and advertise in the daily newspaper!"

Needless to say, this method is really something these officials didn't think of at first.

After all, in the fixed thinking of these people, advertising space is something that businessmen only buy in order to sell their own items and promote their own shops.

They are officials in the court and are not in the same system as businessmen.

Now that they heard Gu Yanshu's reasonable words, everyone suddenly realized:

Yes, they can advertise in the daily newspaper!

At this time, another person raised a question:

"But the advertising space in this daily newspaper is not cheap..."

Not surprisingly, this person also got Gu Yanshu's look of "Are you an idiot?":

"The newspaper was founded by the royal father and is the department in charge of Prince Li's mansion. When did the newspaper say that the court needs to charge money for advertising space?"

……

After that, Gu Yanshu helped the household department solve several problems.

Although every time before proposing a solution, Gu Yanshu always likes to give the person who asked the question a look of "Are you an idiot? Otherwise, how could you ask such a simple question?"

But I have to say that the plan given by Gu Yanshu is indeed simple and fully operable.

While these officials were silenced, they could only swallow the anger in their hearts.

Wen Qingyan, on the other hand, discovered some clues in the process:

Those problems that cannot be solved for them are extremely simple in the eyes of Princess Li.

The reason seems to be related to Princess Li's way of thinking.

Take advertising for example.

The officials of the household department prided themselves on their noble status and looked down on the methods commonly used by businessmen, so they never thought about this possibility at all.

But Princess Li would not.

In the eyes of Princess Li, there is no distinction between "businessman's method" and "official method", only how to solve problems faster and better.

No wonder the sixth brother was always full of praise for Princess Li after returning home.

It's no wonder that sometimes the sixth brother can easily find a solution to what the elder brothers find difficult.

It's no wonder that every time the sixth brother mentioned the solution, their elder brothers would feel a sudden sense of "this thing is so simple? Why didn't they think of it?".

Perhaps this is the benefit of getting along with His Highness for a long time, and learning His Highness's way of handling affairs subtly.
