I was the emperor in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 246
The Queen's gratitude is not without reason.

As the lord of the harem, she is an example of women in the world, and these things that she should have worried about are easily solved by Li Tian's soap at this moment.

How could she not be excited.

Following the queen's soft bow, the other maids also followed suit with rosy eyes.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness..."

Li Tian was made a little helpless by them for a while, and even Zhou Zhen was dumbfounded.

In this era, women are only accessories of men. As long as they are not regular wives, they can curse at will or even buy and sell each other.

The big family is okay, there are more servants, washing clothes or something, there are many people busy together, it is passable.

But for poor families, a woman not only has to work in the fields, but also takes care of the children, does laundry and cooks.

It is not an exaggeration to say that there is no leisure for a moment.

But for many years from ancient times to the present, no one has ever said a word of justice to a woman, or done a thing that relieved the hardship.

But now Li Tian has done it.

Although it was only a small matter, it only eased their hard work a little.

But this is enough to make women in the world feel happy.

Li Tian comes from a world where later generations advocate equality between men and women.

For this era where men are superior to women, the feeling is not very deep.

His original intention was just to use soap and matches to grab some money and cultivate a working class by the way.

Never thought that such a small thing could possess such a great magic power.

After all, it was hard to lift up the empress who was moved and messed up.

He gently took her into his arms and comforted her with kind words,
"Ling'er's heart, I understand."

But he immediately thought of another good idea, then he turned around and said to Zhou Zhen,
"Zhou Zhen listened to the decree and passed on the order. Soap was invented by the empress. It was invented by the empress to show compassion for women in the world. Do you understand?"

Zhou Zhen trembled all over, and it took him a long time to react, and he cupped his hands and said,

"Yes, I remember!"

The queen was also stunned when she heard Li Tian's words, and said in a puzzled way,
"Your Majesty, what is the meaning of this, the concubine dare not steal the merits of heaven!"

Li Tian caressed her face and said softly,
"I still have a lot of good ideas in my mind, not bad for soap.

Since the empress thinks that this thing is a treasure that benefits women all over the world, it is natural to announce it to the world in your name, empress. "

How does the queen not know what kind of merit this is.

In this way, her Zhang family name will be remembered by the world forever like those wise emperors since ancient times.

Even if hundreds of thousands of years have passed, as long as there are still people using soap, her name will not be forgotten.

As long as there is a little publicity, her name will be remembered by women all over the world, and it is not impossible for someone to even set her a longevity ranking.

And Li Tian gave her this honor without hesitation, which made her both moved and frightened.

"Your Majesty, how did this happen? Please take it back!"

Li Tian shook his head and said solemnly to her,

"Ling'er doesn't need to rush to refuse, in fact, there is a reason for me to do this."

"First of all, as an emperor, my prestige has long been spread all over the world, and I don't need this thing to increase my reputation."

"Secondly, since this item is for the benefit of women all over the world, it will be easier for the common people to accept this item by spreading it under your name, Ling'er."

In fact, there is still one thing he didn't say in his heart, that is, it is easier to create momentum by using the queen for the well-being of women in the world.

On the contrary, if one talks about how His Majesty the Emperor is for women in the world, it will easily make people think of bad aspects.

In this way, the best-selling of soap is even easier.

It is conceivable to wait until this thing is launched.

Even if someone is afraid of wasting money and doesn't want to buy it, as long as the woman says a word to her man.

'This is invented by the empress for us women, why don't you let me use it! '

At that time, even if he doesn't want to buy it, he won't be able to.

Moreover, giving this honor to the queen will not only make the queen love herself more, but also make her, like herself, be illuminated by the glory of future generations.

He is just talking about killing three birds with one stone, why not do it.

After Li Tian's persuasion, the queen reluctantly accepted Li Tian's suggestion, although she was still very apprehensive.

"The concubine must live up to His Majesty's trust, and must set an example for all women in the world."

Looking at her delicate face, coupled with the touch of red glow reflected by being moved, Li Tian's heart was about to crisp, and he really wanted to take a bite.

Both things can be regarded as finished introducing to the queen.

Then he said to the Queen,
"I plan to build a workshop to mass-produce two things, what does Ling'er think?"

The queen immediately said happily,

"Both of these things can be called good things that benefit the country and the people. It is naturally a good thing to be able to mass-produce them."

Then she seemed to think of something again, and said a little shyly,

"If there is still a shortage of silver in the construction workshop, the concubine still has some gold and silver jewelry here, which can also be worth some silver. Your Majesty can just take it."

Seeing that she is so virtuous, it is impossible to say that Li Tian is not moved.

He laughed, didn't care that Zhou Zhen was still beside him, and hugged her even tighter.

"What stupid things Ling'er is talking about? It's a trivial matter. It's not enough to make the queen sell off your jewelry. If you want to spread the word, I still have the face."

The queen blushed, and quickly explained, "Your Majesty, forgive me, my concubine is just...just..."

Seeing her so embarrassed, Li Tian quickly changed the subject and said,
"Haha, I'm asking you, just want to ask if you have any recommendations for suitable shopkeepers! I will naturally worry about other things."

"what!"

The queen was a little surprised, and kept beating drums in her heart, a little confused about what Li Tian meant.

"Your Majesty, the ministers and concubines have lived in the palace for a long time, and they really don't know how to be suitable with others!"

"Why not? I think my brother-in-law is quite suitable. Is he still in his hometown now!"

She was even more puzzled when she heard that Li Tian actually wanted her younger brother Zhang Yongyang to manage the workshop.

"Your Majesty, how can He De, my concubine brother, take on this important task."

In fact, it was not a whim that Li Tian wanted Zhang Yongyang to be the steward of one of the workshops.

First of all, although Zhang Yongyang has a bit of a dandy temperament, in general, he has not yet reached the level of anger and resentment, and it is not impossible to bring it back with a little discipline.

The second is that although this guy is a dude, he still has a bit of vision in doing business.

Li Tian is also not at ease to blindly use the people in the palace.

After all, the hearts of eunuchs and normal people are still different.

If the workshop is handed over to Zhang Yongyang, he will definitely work hard to make money for himself.

Coupled with the fact that he and the queen are controlling him behind him, it is certain that he will not play off.
