Gourmet Girl: Becoming a Royal Merchant Started from Selling Buns

The result... the bluestone slabs crackled and cement won again.

"Oh my God, Your Highness, please pinch me. Am I really dazzled?" Zhou Li's eyes widened and he was completely dumbfounded.

But Fu Zhun's attention was completely on Su An, and he seemed not to hear.

At this moment, the little girl bathing in the sunset seems to be covered with a layer of shining light, and her beautiful face is free and dazzling.

Su An didn't notice, and said to Lin Yong with a leisurely smile on his face: "How about it, Lord Lin, can you trust me this time?"

At this point, Lin Yong has confirmed the practicality and importance of cement. As Su An said, it is several times stronger and more durable than bluestone!

He swallowed his saliva and bowed to Su An in awe: "Miss Su, there are always people who are better than you. I was too narrow-minded before."

"I hope Miss Su will be so kind as to teach me how to build a cement road. I'll have people start work right away when I get back!"

It was not until this moment that everyone realized what was happening and burst into cheers.

"Suan! Suan!"

"Long live Boss Su!"

"I don't deserve it! This is not my own achievement..." Su An also smiled modestly after realizing it belatedly.

Then he hurriedly discussed the road construction with Lin Yong.

Lin Yong originally only wanted to repair the official road outside to facilitate access, but after discussing with Su An, he decided to replace the entire county with cement roads.

Building roads is a major project, and since the entire county is involved, it requires many skilled craftsmen.

When Lu Ming heard about this, he hurriedly called together his disciples and brought the refugees to join in the road construction.

The production of cement and paving of roads, to put it simply, is a good deed that benefits the people's livelihood.

To put it in a broader sense, we can say that we have witnessed the birth of a miracle, and its future promotion will be a reform!

Being able to participate in this first major reform will surely leave a lasting legacy!

After hearing the news, Chu Yi couldn't help but stand up in shock, his eyes filled with deep interest and admiration, "Good, what a Su An, I was right, she is truly a unique and wonderful person."

only--

"How dare you, below the emperor, address someone as 'Long Live the Emperor'? Humph!"

Chu Yi was excited but also dissatisfied. He sighed and cursed at times. Soon he picked up a pen and wrote a secret letter to Fuyou County.

Three days later.

When Mudan received the secret letter, she almost had a heart attack and closed her eyes in sorrow.

Didn’t they say that all the spies in Fuyou County have been removed?

But now she felt like she was being watched in every possible way, and her every move could be seen by the emperor!

"Oh, you guys like to spy on me, but can't I do it?"

No matter whether it can be done or not, she will just go through the process and let people do whatever they want!

Mudan found Su An in one breath, with a face full of tears, and asked: "Miss Su, there is something."

"His Majesty wants to marry you as his concubine, and he's very anxious."

Su An has been very busy recently. When he heard this out of the blue, his mind was stunned on the spot, "Is he sick?"

When these words came out, Mudan's face twisted slightly.

Su An's IQ returned to normal, and he quickly covered his mouth and laughed dryly at her: "That's not what I meant, I just feel it's ridiculous."

"So Miss Su, aren't you willing to accept this immense wealth? This is a chance to become a phoenix!" Mudan tried her best to persuade her earnestly.

Su An straightened his eyes slightly, "Miss Mudan, I think I have answered you before. I just want to live an ordinary and wealthy life. I really can't afford this... I guess it can be considered a kind gesture."

Upon hearing this, Mudan narrowed her eyes slightly and threatened symbolically:

"The emperor's thunder and rain are all blessings. Sometimes you can't refuse them just because you want to. Don't forget that you have a family to support you."

Meeting Mudan's complicated gaze, Su An pursed his lips.

"That's true, but don't I still have Fu Zhun now?"

"As long as he's jealous of my cooking skills for one day, I'll have the confidence to do so."

peony:"……"

It makes so much sense, I can't refute it.

Anyway, she had tried to persuade him, and being ruthlessly rejected had nothing to do with her, so she planned to go home.

"That's all I have to say, Miss Su. I don't want to be your enemy. I hope you can keep the secret." She sighed.

Su An blinked innocently and had to remind him: "In fact, Fu Zhun has known about your relationship with the emperor for a long time."

"what?"

Mudan was stunned, and then a bitter smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Yes, she should have thought of it earlier. It would not be so easy for that gentleman to hide the truth.

"It doesn't matter whether I know or not. I have no control over everything now. I just have to muddle along for now."

Peony lowered her eyes sadly, and a layer of sadness hung around her.

To be honest, Su An also believed her statement that she had no choice.

Mudan runs the shop with genuine anticipation and joy, and loves this beauty salon with all her heart.

After all, their professions are related. Compared to being a shadow guard, she seems to be more interested in makeup.

Su An felt sympathy and whispered to herself, "Mudan, you are beautiful and capable, but it's a waste of time to work for that brainless emperor. You might as well work with us and grow bigger and stronger together."

Mudan's mouth twitched when she heard this.

I'm afraid Su An is the only one who dares to say this about the current emperor.

"My life is in the hands of the emperor."

Mudan shook her head and left tiredly without saying anything more.

Her life was indeed in the emperor's hands.

So after returning, she honestly conveyed Su An's answer back.

……

"Damn it! How dare a mere peasant girl reject me!"

Chu Yi tore the secret letter into pieces. He was so angry that his chest heaved and his face was extremely gloomy.

"What an ignorant bitch! Fu Hai, order someone to kill her immediately! If I can't have her, no one else can!"

Fu Hai stood aside, helplessly and cryptically saying, "Your Majesty, the King of Zhenbei has always been concerned about that peasant girl. He has sent people to secretly protect her and will definitely not let her get into danger."

The corners of Chu Yi's lips curled up high, and he gritted his teeth viciously.

"Don't worry, just follow the refugees into the city. Fuyou County is no longer a monolithic entity!"

In the provincial capital, upon learning of the news, the chief craftsman Lao Yu immediately brought his men to Fuyou County.

After asking around, I easily found Su An's house.

When Su An opened the door, he saw an old man who was about fifty or sixty years old. His face was full of wrinkles and there were a few wrinkles at the corners of his eyes. He had an expressionless face but revealed an inexplicable toughness.

"Are you Su An, the person in charge of building the cement road?" Lao Yu asked bluntly.

He had found out everything during the days since he arrived.

This girl invented cement and a number of new tools, so Lin Yong gave her the authority to supervise the repair of the cement road.

Su An also sensed a bit of a menacing presence, so he closed the door a little and said, "I'm just a part-time worker, what do you want?"

Lao Yu laughed twice, his tone filled with pride. "I am the chief craftsman from the prefectural capital. I am very interested in your methods of cement and tools. I brought my disciples and other people with me to help you build the cement road."

Su An was stunned when he heard this, then rolled his eyes.

My father-in-law's words were quite straightforward, but they didn't sound right.

It was as if he was condescending to give her alms because she was willing to come over!
