The Evil Emperor Pursues His Wife: Sheng Chong Shifei

Chapter 242: A Little Farewell

"Granddaughter-in-law, please ask uncle to correct me." Shangguan Qing combed her hair into a bun and dressed as a woman. She was wearing a light green palace attire.

Chu Yu saw the space bracelet on Shangguan Qing's wrist, and really wanted to ask, what good things did Ma Congwu have in his private collection, every local strongman is worth a lot of money, and Ma Congwu is richer if he is supported by his family.

Chu Yu quickly read the "Eight Classics Illustrated Records", circulated the vitality in the body, felt that the body was much lighter, and soon realized the mystery of it, Shangguan Qing was not ashamed to ask, and Chu Yu shared his personal feelings.

Shangguan Qing thanked him again and again, and Chu Huaitian and Chu Qianhan who were listening also benefited a lot, and the hostility towards this old ancestor in their hearts was much less.

Return home from the palace.

Shangguan Qing felt a lot more relaxed after changing into a strong outfit. She said to Chu Qianhan, "Uncle Zu is old this year, so he doesn't look old at all."

"If I remember correctly, Uncle Shu is 130 years old this year."

"I can really live." Shangguan Qing sincerely praised.

Chu Qianhan explained: "Our mortals have reached the peak of cultivation and their lifespan is 120 years old. If we can advance to a strong earth element, our lifespan can reach 500 years. Legend has it that there is also a strong man with Tianyuan who can live as long as the sky. I have never seen it before." .”

"It's so powerful, wait, there should be more than one master in the Ma family, what if they come to seek revenge?" Shangguan Qing immediately became alert, and after thinking about it, she said: "We must prepare some more powerful weapons, or else it's true worried."

"There are stronger weapons?"

"Of course there is, but it's a little troublesome to make." Shangguan Qing broke free from her lover's arms and came to the table, picked up a pen and paper and began to draw a sketch.

Chu Qianhan looked at Shangguan Qing who was working hard and felt so beautiful.

Shangguan Qing raised her head from the pile of drawings and smelled the fragrance of heaven, and the elder Chu Qianhan baked a fruit cake by himself.

"Come and taste." Chu Qianhan placed the cake in front of Shangguan Qing.

"Thank you, my lord, for the reward."

"Aifei is too polite."

Chu Qianhan fed the cake into Shangguan Qing's mouth with a bamboo fork, enjoying the joy of feeding.

Feeling the fragrance of milk melting in her mouth, Shangguan Qing said with a brain jump, "Suddenly I want to eat Mala Tang, and the Mala Tang in my hand is almost exhausted, so I need to spare some time to prepare."

"It's been a long time since I ate." Chu Qianhan had eaten the spicy dishes made by Shangguan Qing, and they were very satisfying, but the taste was always uncomfortable.

"I'll look for materials first, and I'm making it for you to eat. Let's make this for self-defense first, and then this one needs to be improved. If it weren't for the master craftsmen of the craftsman department, I really wouldn't be able to make these things. Come." Shangguan Qing proudly pointed to the blueprint for Chu Qianhan to see.

"What is this?" Chu Qianhan saw on the drawing, a strange weapon that looked like bundled wood was drawn.

"Vulcan Cannon, also known as Gatling."

Shangguan Qing is going all out, whoever wants her life must be prepared to be killed.

Shangguan Qing found a few master craftsmen who understood the vitality in the crafting department, took apart the parts of Gatling, and asked them to make thirty sets of spare parts with the same size, and then choose the most suitable one. She was banned from assembling several Gatling machines, and she and Chu Qianhan each took one, and the rest were used to test and improve.

Gatling consumed an astonishing amount of bullets, and Shangguan Qing stayed up all night to prepare a batch of gunpowder and assemble the bullets with a simple loader.

Chu Qianhan tried it once, and felt that this thing had enough bullets to kill thousands of troops with one person.

Shangguan Qing warned: "Firearms have many restrictions, and they are not necessary for life-saving emergencies."

"Listen to my concubine."

Shangguan Qing was busy preparing weapons. In addition to the Gatling, she also reduced the amount of gunpowder for the short cannons, improved the shotguns, and produced a batch of single-shot shotguns.Shangguan Qing stayed at home for half a month before returning to work, and armed herself and Chu Qianhan to the teeth.During this period, under the supervision of Zhuqing and others, and with the plans prepared in advance, the business of Luantai Division and Craftsmanship Division went smoothly.

In particular, the ticket mailing business from Beijing to Qiongya Junzhou has completed the first business, which has aroused considerable repercussions. The Ministry of Household Affairs began to draw up a plan to implement such a business across the country.

Shangguan Qing finished dealing with the backlog of official duties in the morning, just like going home to rest, but a female official came to report that the fourth prince, Chu Qiankang, was here and wanted to see Shangguan Qing.

Shangguan Qing greeted him at the door and invited Chu Qiankang in.

After sitting down, Chu Qiankang didn't drink tea to moisten his throat, and said directly: "My people discovered a large-scale coal mine in Siping County, and it is not a problem to produce a million stones of raw coal a year. Can our previous contract be changed to here. "

"Okay, I just want raw coal, it can be shipped from anywhere."

"Sister-in-law San is refreshing." Chu Qiankang praised Shangguan Qing first, and said, "Siping is adjacent to Sishui County, but there are more mountains. I would like to ask sister-in-law to allocate some manpower to build roads to transport the raw coal. "

In the final analysis, Shangguan Qing still needs to invest in it.

Shangguan Qing didn't agree immediately, but took out the map to look at it. With the help of Chu Qianhan and Chu Qianshui, the map around the capital that she had mastered was very detailed and she was included in the scope of confidentiality, so it was not for outsiders to see.Shangguan Qing deliberately forgot about the map that he promised Chu Qiankang and the sixth prince Chu Qianyun.

Siping County is close to Sishui, and there is a continuous low hill in the county. The coal mine in Sishui County is located in the extension of this hill.

Unlike Sishui County, which is densely covered with water networks, Siping's mountainous terrain is very inconvenient for transportation. The cost of road construction in Siping will be several times that of Surabaya.

Seeing Shangguan Qing pondering, Chu Qiankang knew that he could not borrow money, and Shangguan Qing was preparing a big move. According to his previous experience, he could not refuse the benefits offered by Shangguan Qing.

"Fourth brother." After marrying Chu Qianhan, Shangguan Qing's address to the princes also changed.

"Sister-in-law, please tell me."

"The craftsmen have a great demand for raw coal, and there is not much raw coal. I will suggest to my father that I approve the fourth brother to dig a canal in Siping, and hand over the canal to the fourth brother with 60 years of experience. Inherited to use until the 60th year."

60 years of experience in a canal represents huge profits, even more profitable than raw coal.But Chu Qiankang always felt that this was a pit, as if something was wrong there.

"Fourth brother, don't rush to agree. You first find a way to transport the raw coal to Beijing. I promise to buy it in full. I will talk to Father about the canal."

"Thank you, sister-in-law three." Chu Qiankang sincerely thanked her, and he also secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The 200 million rock salt rolls he owed Shangguan Qing can continue to be deferred.

After Chu Qiankang was sent away, Shangguanqing wrote a note and asked Liu Liuniang to send it to the palace.

Whether Chu Huaitian agrees or not has nothing to do with Shangguan Qing.

Chu Qianhan came back from Qiongya today, and they had more important things to do.

Xiao Biesheng's newlyweds are only superficial, they have a more ambitious goal.

Back home, Shangguan Qing prepared a hot pot, and wanted Chu Qianhan to taste the spicy flavor she had just found. Shangguan Qing didn't know that Chu Qianhan was being intercepted by several super masters at this time.

"You are Chu Qianhan." Among the people blocking the way, the leader was dressed in a black and white Taoist robe, which was similar to Ma Cong's armed costume, and he looked like a member of the Ma family.

Chu Qianhan held the flying sword across his chest, looking warily at the super masters who surrounded him.

One of the fat men shouted: "The ancestor is asking you a question, but you don't answer honestly, you are dumb."

"Stupid." Chu Qianhan cursed, turned around and ran away.
