I am engaged in construction in Datang

Chapter 229 Yuanshi goes to work

The Mansion of the Duke of Ju.

Early this morning, Yuanshi wore a formal lady's dress. It was no longer as bright and colorful as usual, but just a very simple style and color.

She asked Madam Youfu and was told that she didn't need to wear men's clothes, but she also couldn't be flashy.

It should be a conservative and cool color system, such as dark blue, dark green, gray and black. You should also avoid wearing dazzling accessories such as gold, silver and jewelry. It is best not to wear them around your neck and wrists. You can just tie up your hair with a wooden hairpin.

"Madam, you look more stable and dignified than before." Luying helped Yuanshi to tie up her hair and tidy up her clothes.

"It's as it should be."

Yuan nodded, and then checked each item according to what Madam Youfu said.

Today she will go to the Ministry of Revenue to work. This is not only her first time to work in a government-related place, but also the first time in the entire Tang Dynasty that a woman has done so.

She had to take every possible measure into account and not leave any opportunity for others to impeach her.

"Madam, do you really not need Green Warbler to accompany you?"

"I'm going to work, not to play, why am I taking you there?"

She wasn't a very powerful person and she didn't even hold an official position. If she brought a maid with her, she would definitely be laughed at by others.

Yuanshi walked out of the room and looked over there when passing by the back garden. Maoyue was still obsessed with the drama.

She shook her head and sighed: "I hope Maoyue won't cause any more trouble and just stay at home."

"Well... we have to ask Luying and Wan'er to keep an eye on him."

Willow leaves were curled and swaying on the branches, and birds of various colors were blinking their eyes, looking curiously at the passers-by under the trees.

Yuanshi rode on a 28-inch bicycle and headed to work.

She heard that officials all rode bicycles to work, so naturally she had to keep in line.

The Suzaku Gate was usually closed, so she had to drive in through the side door.

The Shangshu Province worked in the center of Chengtianmen Street.

It was the morning rush hour, and many officials passed by on their bicycles, looking at Yuanshi strangely.

The soldiers guarding the gate received the news early in the morning and did not intercept them.

"Are you the Lady of Ju State?"

A young man wearing a scholar's robe and looking like a student stood at the door, looking like someone sent to guide people.

Yuan nodded, hesitated for a moment and said, "My name is Yuan Tingran."

The blessed young lady said that when you travel around, you must leave your name behind.

The other party seemed not to hear her and led her inside: "Come with me, we have reserved a room for one person."

"A single room?"

"Ah... after all, you are the Lady of Ju State."

The man said, "It's always inconvenient to stay with a group of grown men like us."

What's inconvenient?

Yuan Tingran's breathing stagnated. If she stayed in the small room alone, would anyone give her work to do?

If she was just going to sit there as a mascot, what was the point of her coming here?

"That's not good."

Yuan Tingran said, "I heard that only the Shangshu can use the side room alone."

Hearing this, the man looked at her strangely and said, "The Duke of Ju is the Minister, and you are the Lady of Ju, and a woman. We all agree to prepare a separate room."

Yuan Tingran pinched his fingers and said slowly: "I understand."

The two of them walked into a small room not far from the office. There was a chess table hidden in the corner, as if it had been hastily converted into an office.

"Is there anything I can do for you?"

Yuan Shi put down the pen, ink, paper and inkstone she needed and said, "Your Majesty has recently asked us to conduct a new round of population census, which includes many prefectures and counties..."

"Madam Juguo, someone has been responsible for this matter."

Hearing this, Yuan Tingran wanted to laugh.

Before she came here, someone went to the mansion to inquire about this matter.

After coming here, wow!

It turns out that there have been capable people managing it for a long time.

"That's good."

She looked deeply at the man in front of her: "It seems that everyone has been studying these days, and I don't need to worry about these things anymore."

The young man blushed slightly when he heard this.

In the past, they did often send people to the mansion to inquire, but everyone pretended that the orders were issued by the Duke of Ju. Who cared about this lady?

Now he could only bite the bullet and continue: "Madam Juguo, please rest here first. If there is anything unclear, we will come to solve your doubts."

After saying this, he bowed and turned to leave.

"Wait a minute."

Yuan Tingran called out to the other person: "My dear, my name is Yuan Tingran."

"I heard thunder through the broken window, and was startled. I wanted to burn the old things."

"what's your name?"

‘Boom——’

Suddenly, there were bursts of thunder in the sky, followed by a flash of lightning, illuminating the rose buds that were about to bloom under the windowsill.

The mouse put down the stolen food and hurried back to its nest.

Just like the man who is fleeing at this moment.

In just one day, the news that a lady named Yuan Tingran was on duty in the Shangshu Province spread throughout Chang'an.

……

Female village.

A small court meeting will be held in the village today.

"Brother, this business with the imperial court is definitely worth it."

Li Yin picked up a piece of crispy and sweet cucumber and quickly put it into her mouth: "This thing can make a lot of money from overseas! And it also adds a good employee who is super good at work."

"You!"

"It's too chaotic."

Li Shimin shook his head helplessly. Even though the Ministry of Revenue was indeed a little disorganized, he did not want to ask Yuan Tingran to come to the Shangshu Province to take up a post. He had originally thought of transferring more people and asking Old Fang and the others to take on a concurrent position. (Fang Xuanling and others:%*¥&)

Let's talk about this decades later.

But who knew that her sister took out a new gadget called a glass mirror and said she wanted to use it to exchange for a chance.

As soon as he took a look at the palm-sized mirror, his eyes widened immediately.

Not only can you clearly see the outline of a person from inside, but what is even more surprising is that the colors are almost the same.

He had searched so many surrounding countries, but had never seen such a thing?

"Brother, we have to do it while no one else is reacting."

Li Yin's purpose was always clearly laid out before everyone, and Li Shimin knew it without having to guess. Otherwise, why would the good 'Xiao Li Zhuang' be changed to 'Nü Zhuang'?

With the development of industrialization, people are gradually getting richer, and the rise of women is inevitable. It all depends on how we handle it.

Li Shimin's idea was to proceed step by step and let nature take its course.

However, Li Yin felt that letting things take their own course would not work. To break the old customs and ideas, she had to use special methods that not only had to be effective quickly but also stable.

With various technical supports, there will be no handle left, allowing a second Song Dynasty to emerge.

"Stepsister."

Li Shimin rubbed his brows and said, "Brother, do you want to take another look at that simple generator and the first version of the steam engine?"

Otherwise, he will never feel at ease.

"Let's go together after lunch."

These two things also gave Li Yin the confidence to ask Li Shimin to buy Zuiyu Tower.

With hot weapons, electricity, and mechanical power, society's oppression of women will become as fragile as carbon fiber, which looks very hard but can't withstand the slightest impact.

Li Yin nodded: "Okay."

"I just happened to make a small light bulb recently. I spent a lot of effort on it. I'll show it to you later."
