Chapter 387 -363, Lottery Draw_1

Due to the Xiangyang Glass Factory’s commencement of glaze sales, the last couple of days have seen an unprecedented buzzing in Ningmen Prefecture City, with merchants traveling from south to north and officials from noble families closely monitoring the event.

In a second-floor, street-facing private room of a restaurant on the main street of the Prefecture City, Daohua, Dong Yuanyao, and Su Shiyu, who had finished their shopping spree, were now taking a tea break there, somewhat surprised by the constant stream of passersby on the street.

Daohua, “Xiao Yeyang’s decision to build Daxia’s first glass factory in Ningmen Prefecture has indirectly assisted my father.”

Putting other matters aside, the influx of people from all quarters was certain to stimulate local economic growth.

As the economy grew, so would the tax revenue.

Dong Yuanyao and Su Shiyu did not respond to these words. _{free𝑤ebnovel.com}

As for who helped whom, that remained to be seen!

Their elder brothers followed the Little Prince, and there were some things they could infer even if the Little Prince did not mention them.

The source of the Little Prince’s glass recipe was something both Dong Yuanxuan and Su Hongxin were clear about. Especially since they both had good relations with Yan Wenkai and Yan Wentao, neither of whom were the type to be deeply scheming or secretive. With even a slight probe, they could uncover a thing or two.

Su Shiyu glanced at Daohua, who was looking out the window, and thought of her grandfather’s words.

“Outsiders always say that the Yan Family rose to power by riding on the Little Prince’s coattails, but in my view, this statement is rather biased.”

“Not to mention the life-saving favor, let’s talk about the recent incident of Governor Guo losing his grain seeds. If not for the Yan Family, Governor Guo would undoubtedly have faced demotion.”

“Moreover, in the recent floods and epidemic in Jiguang, the Yan Family was a great help. Governor Guo was in charge of disaster relief. Without the Yan Family’s remedy for the epidemic, who knows how many would have died in Jiguang? Even if it wasn’t his fault, he would still be blamed for negligence.”

“Although these things seem unrelated to the Little Prince, who is the Guo Family? They are the maternal family of the Little Prince, a direct relation. If the Guo Family encountered problems, it wouldn’t look good for him either. The Yan Family, in this way, indirectly assisted the Little Prince.”

“Regarding this glass factory now, that goes without saying. With the Glass Factory listed under the Ministry of Works, it’s equivalent to the Little Prince already serving the Emperor. As long as the glass factory operates well, with silver and reputation to gain in the future, who would dare to underestimate the Little Prince?”

“The Yan Family may have taken advantage of the Little Prince’s influence, but the Little Prince has also gained quite a lot from the Yan Family side.”

“Over the years, although the Little Prince has been in Zhongzhou, the people in Beijing have not lost interest. Whether it’s the Emperor or Prince Ping, would they allow someone to just take advantage of the Little Prince for nothing?”

“Those who say the Yan Family has basked in the glory of the Little Prince are just envious and jealous.”

With these thoughts, Su Shiyu’s eyes narrowed slightly, and she continued to sip her tea in contemplation.

Seeing that her grandfather supported her brother’s association with the Yan brothers, it seemed he had high hopes for the Yan Family and recognized their worth.

Particularly this time, he had taken the initiative to allow her to accompany Madam Dong and Yuanyao, clearly hoping she would form a good relationship with the Yan sister.

Dong Yuanyao put down her teacup, “My father said that the Little Prince choosing to build a glass factory in Ningmen Prefecture was a particularly good decision. Although Ningmen Prefecture is not wealthy, it is situated at the junction of Jiguang, Fenxi, and Zhongzhou provinces and is traversed by a tributary of the Dayuan River, making waterway transportation extremely convenient, which is very favorable for the sale of glassware.”

Daohua nodded, “That is true indeed.” Suddenly, her eyes lit up, and she pointed at the street, “Look quickly, isn’t that Advisor Jiang?”

Dong Yuanyao and Su Shiyu looked over and indeed saw Jiang Zhengyuan strolling by, followed by several officials from other prefectural governments, all dressed in everyday clothes.

Daohua wondered, “It’s just selling some glaze, why would it draw these people here in person?”

Dong Yuanyao shook her head, “Of course, it’s worthwhile.” She then lowered her voice, “My father said that Daxia wouldn’t just build two glass factories. The current attention is to see the revenues of the glass factory, to judge if it’s worthwhile to vie for setting up glass factories elsewhere in the future.”

Daohua showed sudden comprehension, “Ah, so there’s that aspect to it.”

Dong Yuanyao, “Indeed. Not just the Jiang Family, but also my grandfather wrote to urge my father to pay more attention to the glass factory’s affairs.”

Daohua, “No wonder my elder brother said that Xiao Yeyang has been annoyed lately. With so many eyes on him, it’s no surprise he’s vexed. It’s a good thing he is a member of the Imperial Family; otherwise, he couldn’t control the glass factory by himself.”

Dong Yuanyao nodded in agreement.

But Su Shiyu smiled, “Pressure is needed for growth. The determination from Beijing to give the Little Prince control over the glass factory is also likely a test to temper him.”

Dong Yuanyao smiled, “My father said the same. He said that when the Little Prince first came to Zhongzhou, he couldn’t hide his thoughts, but in the past two years, he has become much more reserved.”

Daohua chuckled, “Well, people have to grow up. One can’t remain as capricious as a child forever.”

Su Shiyu laughed, “That’s true.”
