Chapter 60 The old thief understands me
The courtyard is deep, and the vermilion gate locks the prosperity inside.
In the exquisite and luxurious study, a carved pear wood desk stands quietly in the center, on which are exquisitely crafted pens, inkstones, paper and inkstones. In a corner of the study, there is a new armchair made by the Daqin workshop, the chair body inlaid with jade and pearls, shining in the sun.
At first glance, every detail reveals the owner's extravagance.
"Is this news true?" A low, suppressed, and slightly hoarse voice came from the armchair.
At the bottom of the table, a slightly plump, bald man in his fifties replied respectfully, "Brother Pang spent ten gold coins to buy the information from that eunuch, so it should be accurate."
"Ah……"
The hoarse voice chuckled softly, "You immature child, you're obsessed with power and profit. For a few golden coins, you're willing to lower your status and engage in the work of a merchant. Those who compete with the people for profit will soon lose the support of the people."
After saying this, his mood seemed to become particularly cheerful. He picked up the tea next to him, took a sip, and hummed a popular tune.
"The peach leaves are so pointed, and the willow leaves cover the sky. If you are in a position like this, listen carefully to what I have to say..."
It turned out to be the tune of Tan Shui that Su Jinyue had hummed. It was overheard by Taiyue Ling by chance, who asked about it for a long time and then changed the lyrics and sang it widely.
After that, it attracted many singers to follow it, and gradually spread to all parts of the country, and also attracted several "musicians" to join it.
Of course, at this moment, Su Jinyue had no idea that the little tune she hummed unintentionally could incite so many changes.
She didn't even know that after being labeled "Mantou Lady" and "Toufu Lady", she was now labeled as "power-hungry and profit-seeking".
If she knew, she would just laugh three times and say, "You old thief understands me. I just love money."
In the Shaofu, Shaofu Order Cai Yan and Su Jinyue were walking quickly on the cement road.
Su Jinyue walked too fast and was already panting slightly: "Really? How many people came?"
"Two old alchemists, with a dozen apprentices, are now rich. They no longer have to work hard to dig through that pile of tukara."
Cai Yan showed off his big white teeth, his eyes narrowed into slits as he smiled. "That Mr. Ou is really amazing. He only sent out a few letters, but he didn't expect so many people to come to him with their families."
He slowed his pace, looked around, and lowered his voice as he continued, "I heard that the letter that Old Man Ou handed over stated that the Third Princess was indeed a disciple of the immortal. The selection process for disciples was particularly strict, but all the alchemists who came to join her were given good food and drink and could even be offered official positions. This is what attracted so many people to join her."
"ding" Su Jinyue's eyes lit up.
Was she the victim of an old-fashioned telecom scam?
What should I do? My curiosity is piqued and I want to get up close and personal with him.
The alchemist Ou Sheng did not disappoint her. At that time, Ou Sheng had obtained a position as a stone official in charge of mineral calcination and fusion. To a certain extent, his letter was not false.
Inside the Shaofu Terrace, Ou Sheng sat upright on the chair on the right, reminiscing about the past with the other two alchemists. During the conversation, he highly praised the Third Princess and had complete faith in her magical powers.
"My two fellow disciples, do you see the cement road here? That's the method the Third Princess taught me and the others to quickly build roads. Just use fairy mud and water, spread it evenly on the ground, and in two days it will be as hard as stone."
He said this, pretending to be mysterious and leaning closer to the two of them. "There are also some methods of controlling wind and water. The third princess has also revealed them to me. What's more, you can fly."
Upon hearing this, the two bearded alchemists stared at Ou Sheng's raised finger with shining eyes, looked at each other, and felt relieved. This time, the big bet was a sure thing.
The second disciple of the Third Princess would be born among them. Thinking of this, the two men stared at each other with sharp eyes, both determined to get this ranking.
At this moment, a little boy came into the hall carrying a tray of exquisitely shaped tea cups and presented them to everyone.
"Master Shi Zhun, the Third Princess and the Grand Chamberlain have arrived at the Grand Chamberlain's gate and will be here shortly."
The three words "Shi Zhunguan" successfully attracted the attention of the two men. They temporarily stopped fighting and each of them tidied up their appearance, making sure to leave a perfect first impression on the third princess.
Ou Sheng stroked his long beard gently, looking at the child with approval. Since being appointed as an official, his health has gradually improved. He has lost the old age he had when he first came to Xianyang, and his whole body exudes a sense of vitality that can live another twenty years. The child often shouts, "Thank you, Third Princess, for your blessing."
The breeze blew gently through the narrow alley. As soon as she turned the corner, Su Jinyue saw a dozen cows and horses waiting with their heads bowed in front of the Shaofu platform.
She suppressed the corners of her mouth that were curling up wildly, and walked slowly towards the hall with light steps, looking like an immortal master.
"This old minister pays homage to the Marquis of Guannei."
"I pay my respects to the Immortal."
Su Jinyue walked slowly past the kneeling group of people without looking around, until she sat down at the top of the hall. She lowered her eyes slightly, pretending to rest, and only pricked up her ears to listen carefully to the movements of the people.
"Guan Nei Hou Rong reports, these are two of my fellow disciples, who have come from Bushan County and Sihui County in Guilin Commandery, hoping to become the princess' disciples."
The two men bowed in turn and introduced what they and their disciples had learned.
Su Jinyue nodded from time to time, making the other party even more excited.
After everyone was seated again, she raised her eyes, looked around calmly, and said softly, "Leave this matter to Officer Shi. You can handle the arrangements yourself."
Before she finished speaking, she stood up and walked out of the hall.
Everyone followed Su Jinyue and sent her to the corner before turning around and returning.
"The Third Princess is truly worthy of being a disciple of a True God. Her aura is truly unique."
"Indeed, there seem to be large hills and valleys along the way. Perhaps there are hidden Dharma doors."
Listening to the people around him praising the Third Princess, Ou Sheng felt pleased in his heart. He couldn't help stroking his beard with a teasing look on his face.
At the other end of the road, Su Jinyue asked quietly without looking away, "How is it? Are you still looking? Is there anyone behind you?"
"That's all, Third Princess, you are absolutely amazing!" Cai Yan gave Su Jinyue a thumbs up and praised her acting skills.
"Hehe" Su Jinyue is a micro-expression level 10 user who has watched "True Huan Zhuan" seven or eight times. This challenge is easy for her.
The two of them took slight steps and turned to enter a workshop specially opened for the Mohist school.
The entire workshop was filled with smoke, making it feel more like being in a fairyland among the clouds than Su Jinyue had pretended.
"What's going on? Ahem..."
"The Third Princess' voice? But the Third Princess is here?"
"Yes, it's me. What are you doing? Stop the fire first."
After a period of chaos, Mo Qi, Mo Zhi and others walked out of the workshop covered in dust and looked at Su Jinyue with shame on their faces.
"Tell me, what's going on?"
Mo Qi took a step forward and bowed to Su Jinyue. "Third Princess, we are currently experimenting with the water vapor lifting the lever. If we're not careful, the water will boil away."
Su Jinyue shook her head and sighed, "Let's not do this for now. Who among you knows much about architecture? Come with me, and I'll show you something new."
"I can!"
"I can too!"
Su Jinyue looked at the group of people in front of her who were vying to respond, and without hesitation, she said, "Take them all away!"
