    Chapter 256

    Mu Wanqing smiled lightly.

    The Minister of Punishment and the Minister of War looked at each other and exchanged glances.

    It appears to be true.

    Forget it, lose face, lose face, the important thing is lining.

    "We can sign this agreement, but we have to add that we can't blackmail us or bully others."

    Mu Wanqing asked strangely, "What do you guys have to threaten me? I don't lack anything, I just don't want to fight with people all day long. It's better to make money with this time."

    Two people: ...

    Among the six departments, the Minister of Personnel and the Minister of Rites resolutely followed the former head and assistant, and opposed Mu Wanqing everywhere.

    The Minister of the Ministry of Industry wanted to take advantage of Mu Ergu's grandmother's layer to personally take advantage of Mu Wanqing, and was pinched back by Mu Wanqing.

    As for the Minister of War, he has always kept silent.

    In fact, he had a bit of a crush on Mu Wanqing, someone who could give up everything, even if the family went bankrupt, who had to prepare military rations deserved his respect.

    If it weren't for her, the Xiliang line of defense would have been broken.

    And the Minister of Punishment is the emperor's confidant, and naturally he must take the same position as the emperor.

    If the emperor wants to reuse Mu Wanqing, he will hold it.

    "Then I signed it, and all the treatment is the same as the Ministry of Household?"

    Mu Wanqing nodded slightly, "We have to put in a certain amount of manpower, we don't have enough manpower in the household department."

    The four food courts have absorbed all the family members of the household officials. The officials will be more careful, but the yamen can't take the imperial examinations and just want to earn more money.

    Because of this, little gangsters dare not go to the food court to make trouble, and the law and order is very good.

    Next, she is going to start another workshop and needs a little help.

    "This is no problem." The most important thing in the Ministry of Punishment is manpower. "If you need someone, just say hello."

    He was the first to sign the agreement.

    With him taking the lead, the left and right servants of their department all signed.

    The Ministry of War is the same, there is no objection.

    Mu Wanqing was also unambiguous, and directly announced that the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Punishment also enjoyed the same treatment, and each person had a grain and oil certificate.

    With a sound of thunder, the officials in these two departments were overwhelmed with joy. All of them were as happy as a New Year's Eve. They could eat a meal for free and enjoy various social benefits.

    As for the other three departments, it was like a cloudy and rainy day, and all of them were crying.

    People are more popular than dead people, and the boss can bow his head for the sake of his subordinates, why don't you?

    This is bullying their subordinates to talk, right? Okay, then look at the anger of honest people.

    Soon, the Minister of Officials realized that his words were no longer valid.

    He was furious and dealt with several thorns, but the effect was not good, and the grievances below were too great, all coming at him.

    Even if he wanted to bring trouble to the east, it would be useless to push it all on Mu Wanqing.

    In the future, the palace is full of lantern festivals, and it is very lively. Officials of the fourth rank and above bring their families to the palace to celebrate.

    Everyone had prepared generous birthday gifts, and Mu Wanqing was no exception.

    When it was the turn of the birthday present, everyone cheered up and watched with great interest.

    It is still the old rule, the royal concubines, the imperial family, and then the gifts are presented according to the official rank.

    Some of the gifts this time were bought from Mu Wanqing's three luxury stores, such as top luxury skin care products, perfumes, aromatherapy, cushions, glass vase and glass aromatherapy table, etc. Of course, no one sent a clock.

    "The Lord of Qingping County wished the Queen Mother a long life, good health and longevity. He specially presented a pair of kaleidoscopes, a pair of gemstone watches, two glazed lamps, and twelve cans."

    All kinds of novel gifts were sent to the queen mother, and the queen mother saw the glittering glazed lamp at a glance. The shape was Chang'e flying to the moon, and the fairy spirit was fluttering, creating a beautiful atmosphere.

    "Look, this light can adjust the brightness." Mu Wanqing started it herself, pressing the knob on the back and turning it gently, the white light as bright as daytime and the dimly lit night light changed smoothly on the tip of her finger.

    "If you read a book under the lamp, turn it into white light, and when you fall asleep, turn it into a small night light, which is convenient for getting up at night and not dazzling."

    In fact, it is a kerosene lamp, and the design is extraordinarily exquisite and beautiful, and it looks very high-end.

    Everyone's eyes did not change, there was only one thought, want!

    This light is much brighter than a candle, and you don't have to worry about being blown out by the wind. The key is to be beautiful!

    "This is good, Aijia likes it very much." The Queen Mother smiled and played it over and over again. It was obvious that she really liked it.

    The emperor asked what many people wanted to ask, "Qingping county lord, you made this?"

    Mu Wanqing nodded with a smile, "Yes, I read and write at night. The candles are too dark and it will hurt my eyes, so I thought of the glazed lantern."

    She changed her words and said with interest, "I also prepared a copy for you."

    "Not bad." The corner of the emperor's mouth rose slightly.

    Mu Wanqing picked up the pair of watches and introduced, "This is the latest watch. It comes with a chain, which is convenient for me. Just lift my wrist to see the time, which is more practical than a pocket watch."

    "Besides, it is also suitable for accessories, it looks noble and elegant."

    This pair of watches is studded with rubies and a phoenix play with beads pattern, which is extremely delicate.

    There is a grand clock and a pocket watch in the Queen Mother's Palace. I am still attracted by this watch, "Bring it to Aijia."

    "Yes." Mu Wanqing skillfully put the watchband on the Empress Dowager's left wrist and buckled it lightly.

    The round and jade-like wrist is matched with the magnificent watch, which complements each other.

    The more the queen mother looked, the more she liked it, and she felt that her hand was especially suitable, which was more temperamental than wearing jewelry.

    She happily showed everyone, "Your Majesty, look, are you beautiful?"

    The emperor thought that pocket watches were the best, convenient and space-saving, but now he found that watches seemed to be the best choice.

    "Pretty, is this a men's model? I'll try it."

    He naturally picked up another watch and put it on his wrist. The Queen Mother couldn't help but feel anxious. This one is only sapphire, it is clearer and looks good.

    "Your Majesty, this is given to Aijia by the head of Qingping County."

    She also wanted to wear the two watches alternately.

    The corner of the emperor's mouth twitched, "The good things of the queen mother are biased towards me. I will exchange the moon beads with you."

    The Queen Mother liked the gifts that Mu Wanqing presented the most, each of which was unique. "You might as well ask Qingping County Lord to donate a few more."

    Everyone's eyes fell on Mu Wanqing. Mu Wanqing said generously, "The Queen Mother, there are only two pairs of watches in the first batch. Where is one pair, and the other pair was sent to Du Shuai's mansion for a gift that year."

    Although he has left Xiliang, he has never lost contact with Xiliang, and there are no fewer boxings throughout the year.

    Du Shuai is the elder brother of the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother nodded with satisfaction.

    The queen mother looked at Mu Wanqing's wrist, "Don't you have it either?"

    Mu Wanqing only wore a jasper bracelet on her hand, "No, just waiting for the second batch."

    The empress dowager was a little more satisfied with her, and she didn't blame the emperor for supporting her.

    The most important thing is to have the ability.

    She picked up a kaleidoscope, "What is this?"

    They are all sincere gifts, so the shapes are all designed to be garish and luxurious.

    It is also colorful gemstones, carved dragons and phoenixes, and colorful.

    Just one word, it looks expensive.

    "Come up and take a look, and turn the kaleidoscope while watching, and you will see a wonderful sight."

    The queen mother was aroused by her curiosity and picked up the kaleidoscope to take a look.

    She said in surprise, "Ah, plum blossoms are blooming."

    Everyone looked around at a loss, where can there be flowers? In that barrel? isn't it?

    Mu Wanqing smiled and said, "Yes, you can turn again."

    The queen mother watched the fireworks-like patterns change again and again in front of her eyes, and the beauty was dazzling.

    She was surprised and delighted, "It's changed, it's changed, the flowers have changed."

    The emperor was unbearable, and picked up another kaleidoscope to find out.

    It's just that when he got it, he couldn't bear to let it go.

    The mother and son watched it over and over for a long time, fascinated by the beautiful scene inside, and they enjoyed each other.

    This can make other people anxious, give them health!

    The eldest prince stared at him for a while, and then he stepped forward and tugged at the emperor's sleeve, "Father, let my son take a look."

    What is the good thing that makes them reluctant to let go? really want to play.

    The emperor handed the kaleidoscope to his son reluctantly, and couldn't help sighing, "I finally understand why I named it the kaleidoscope, Qingping County Lord, how can you have so many amazing ingenuity?"

    Mu Wanqing's mouth twitched slightly, "Does the queen mother not want to look at the cans?"

    The Queen Mother hesitated for a moment, "Then take a look."

    Nothing of the Qingping county owner is ordinary, and the same is more interesting than the other.

    Mu Wanqing took off the carton and took out six cans of glass canned fruit and six cans of canned meat.

    From the first jar she took out, the audience was silent and couldn't believe it.

    The cherries in this glass jar look so fresh and delicious.

    But this winter, how can there be fruit?

    The queen mother loves fruit, but even if she is the mother of a country and rich in the world, fresh fruit cannot be eaten in winter.

    "This is Sydney? Cherry? Loquat? How did you do it?"

    "It's very simple, canned food preservation technology." Mu Wanqing said lightly, but no one in the audience understood. "You said, can something like this be sold to other countries?"

    The Empress Dowager couldn't wait to eat it, "It's definitely possible, open a jar and let Aijia taste it."

    Mu Wanqing gave a demonstration on how to open a can, and then the maid took over.

    After the waiter tried it, he divided a can into two parts, one for the Queen Mother and one for the Emperor.

    The queen mother couldn't wait to take a sip, and narrowed her eyes with satisfaction, "The water is moist and sweet, the pear taste has not changed at all, and it is delicious. Qingping County Lord, why did you think of getting canned fruit?"

    Mu Wanqing had tried it a long time ago, and it was not uncommon for them, but the eyes of the people around them were green, like hungry wolves. It was too tempting for them to eat fruit in the winter.

    "I can't live without fruit all year round, but in winter, it's really hard to eat fruit. I wonder if I can store the fruit for a longer period of time. It can be stored for more than half a year."

    A marquis couldn't help but said, "Qingping County Lord, how much do you have on hand? I bought them all."

    Others were unhappy, "Hey, why are you so domineering? Don't leave anything for others, Qingping County Lord, I want a can of everything."

    "I want too."

    Drinking a sip of ice-cold fruit candy water in winter, not to mention how comfortable it is.

    Mu Wanqing declined gracefully, "I'm sorry, the first year is too small, I didn't plan to take out, I kept it for myself, and then I don't have any new year gifts."

    New Year's gifts, only those who have friendship will send them to each other.

    There is no family in the capital that she wants to give gifts to, so she only needs to give a little to the palace.

    Everyone was amazed when they saw the fresh stuff on the table, they all wanted it!

    Not for sale! How does this work? Holding the money in both hands and begging!

    Mrs. Cifu came up and said, "Qingping County Lord, we are relatives. You are my cousin's cousin's cousin's cousin."

    Second Assistant: ...Traitor!

    The most beloved daughter of the Minister of Officials jumped out, "Qingping County Lord, do you still need half-brothers and sisters? I can do it!"

    Minister of Officials: ...Traitor!
