After an unknown amount of time, Lu Gong took a deep breath, sat up from behind the desk, and dismissed the waiter. He said angrily, "If you don't come back, then I will eat by myself. Pass the word out, let's order a table today. Let's go to Baiyujing and order a good meal."

"Hey, little one, let's go right here."

The young servant immediately trotted out the door to report the news, but was called back by Lu Gong.

"Forget it, I'll call them when they come back. Today I want to eat tofu stewed with meat, with more tofu."

"Yes, master."

In the hall of the official office of the Ministry of Commerce, which was far away from Lu Gong, Lu Zezheng and his colleagues were calculating again and again with the account books in front of them.

He was not lying, the Ministry of Commerce was indeed very busy recently.

After more than a year, chambers of commerce in various places have gotten back on track.

It also happened that the regional rights in various places expired.

They urgently need to check the account books, organize the information of merchants, and prepare the candidates for renewal.

The day of His Majesty's tour is approaching, and the Imperial Master has no time to take care of other things, so this year's auction will be left to them.

This made the men feel extremely excited and extremely nervous.

The first auction was so successful, they must not let it down.

Must take pictures of more gold cakes!

Shit! Promotion is yours!

Work overtime!

Roll it up!

Lu Ze and his men were in a state of distress in the Ministry of Officialdom and Commerce, and the situation in the Imperial Master's Mansion where Lu Zhi was was even worse.

They must arrange everything before going on patrol.

Otherwise, he would be left in Xianyang City to guard his home.

How can this be done?

Isn't that just like what adults say about being banished to the cold palace?

They absolutely will not allow it!

The working atmosphere was so intense that even Su Jinyue didn't dare to challenge it. She stayed in Yuehua Palace for several days, preparing her luggage.

After a lot of effort, she walked towards the Shaofu and met Gongshu Yang and others. They caught her and asked her all kinds of questions.

"Is this design of the musket's muzzle feasible?"

"Master Imperial Master, how do we solve the problem of the exploding chamber?"

"Sir, how can this cannon be made lighter?"

Su Jinyue was very curious about the development of weapons.

Cannon? Out?

So fast?

isn't it...

Su Jinyue ran all the way to Gongshu Yang and his colleagues' experimental table with the speed of wind.

Emmm...

This……

Speaking of cannons, it's really a bit difficult to use them.

At most it's just a big iron pipe.

There was a ball of gunpowder stuffed inside.

It seems that there are still barriers to thermal weapons, and they cannot be easily researched.

Gongshu Yang's handsome face was full of sorrow.

He looked at the shattered iron pipe in the distance with a sad face, and said in a mournful voice, "Master Imperial Master, I am truly ashamed. The gunpowder always explodes close to me. It's clearly similar to fireworks, but it never gets thrown far..."

Su Jinyue was also helpless.

Even facing the other person's handsome face, Su Jinyue could only smile and not respond.

She really didn't know much about weapons, especially gunpowder.

Living in a country where guns are banned, she has never seen a real gun, and she doesn't see anything like it in the videos she occasionally watches.

"How about I give you a diagram of the appearance?"

Gongshu Yang immediately put away his expression, raised the corner of his mouth, and bowed to Su Jinyue to express his gratitude, "Thank you very much, sir. Please come this way. There are ready-made pens and ink in the room."

Good guy, wait for her here.

Su Jinyue turned around and stopped looking at him.

"lead the way."

Quick victory!

The academy is still the best, there are many energetic students.

After finishing the painting, she went for a stroll around the academy.

Wash away the work spirit.

really.

As soon as she arrived at the academy, Su Jinyue felt like she was back to herself.

Wherever there are secluded paths, there will always be young couples.

Su Jinyue, who wanted to get some gossip, went through many small woods but didn't find any pink pictures.

its not right……

Didn’t I hear that several couples were engaged in the academy?

Su Jinyue looked at Lady Dan in confusion.

Dan immediately understood what she meant and leaned close to her ear, whispering, "Master, the academy has strict discipline. Students are prohibited from teaching privately. Once discovered, they will be expelled immediately."

"Oh~~~"

Su Jinyue understood.

There are limited places for students nowadays, and many people are waiting in line. If you are expelled from school, won’t your family scold you for being autistic?

Girls nowadays are so nice, none of them are lovesick.

Unlike her roommate, who gave up her degree for a man.

Eh? What's her roommate's name?

Why can't I remember?

Forget it, I don’t want to think about it anymore, I’ll just continue wandering around.

"I pay my respects to the Imperial Master. Your elegance remains unchanged."

Just as I was thinking about it, I met a student.

The other person was wearing a simple grey robe with only the word "Yin" embroidered on his chest in the same colour.

"hermit?"

Xu Zhuoran still lowered his head slightly, not meeting Su Jinyue's gaze as a sign of respect, and responded, "Yes, I am the third son of the Xu family, Xu Zhuoran, and I am honored to meet you, sir."

"Oh? Xiao Mofu's brother?"

"It's down."

Su Jinyue became interested and waved her right hand, asking him to follow. The two of them talked as they walked.

"Are there not many hermits coming to Xianyang? Are the student quotas full?"

Xu Zhuoran quickly replied respectfully, "Your Excellency, there are indeed vacancies for students in the academy, but over 900 students have already enrolled."

"Over nine hundred? So fast?"

Su Jinyue was surprised. She thought that hermits were all in the mountains and forests and were unwilling to go to Xianyang.

As if he heard the confusion in Su Jinyue's words, Xu Zhuoran's heart moved, and he said after thinking for a moment.

"Your Excellency may not know that the reputation of the Great Qin Academy is well-known, but many scholars are unable to enter. Although most hermits dedicate themselves to the mountains and rivers, teaching and imparting knowledge is the aspiration of countless people. Therefore, many people set out upon receiving your letter."

Su Jinyue nodded in agreement, but what she was thinking about was how to lure those people who wanted to come to teach in various places.

The two continued walking and unknowingly came to a quiet courtyard. The shadows of the trees in the courtyard were in stark contrast to the hustle and bustle outside.

Su Jinyue strolled in it, and her breathing gradually became lighter.

"Go back and tell Lord Xu to call more people over. If they don't want to move, let them join the academy where they are. There is a shortage of teachers in all parts of Daqin right now, and we urgently need knowledgeable people to join us."

Xu Zhuoran's heart tightened, and he immediately realized that this was an opportunity. "I'll make arrangements when I get back. I will definitely not let you down. I'll then send the list of all places to the Imperial Master's residence."

Su Jinyue waved her hand, motioning him to sit on a stone bench by the roadside, and said with a smile, "I was just saying it casually. You should prepare well. We will wait for the imperial court's summons for details."

Xu Zhuoran was grateful and bowed again: "Thank you for your teachings, sir. I will do my best."

At this moment, a breeze blew by, bringing with it the fragrance of flowers. Su Jinyue took a deep breath, stood up, and said, "It's getting late, and I have some things to take care of. You should go back."

Xu Zhuoran retreated respectfully, his mind full of thoughts.

A-mei is too young. By the time she grows up, the situation will have been decided and it will be too late.

Since they already knew about this in advance, they had to handle it well and help the Xu family to make further progress.
