After arriving in ancient times, I didn’t even bother to put on makeup at the beginning.

Anyway, the original owner’s beauty is heavenly, and both her eyebrows and lip color are already perfect.

However, a woman wants to please her appearance, and since she and Xiao Chengxian entered into a relationship, she has started to make trouble for herself.

However, I usually use an eyebrow pencil as an eyeliner to slightly outline the lower lash line, and I usually don’t wear makeup that is too showy.

"It turned out to be a pencil that looked like this."

Xiao Chengxian stretched out his hand and tore off a strip of paper from the tear-off eyebrow pencil. He couldn't help but nodded in surprise. It was indeed a good invention.

You must know that if you use wood to wrap the lead core, the quantity will be astonishing.

Using these hard papers to wrap the lead core can save a lot of resources and allow the wood to play more roles.

"Madam, did you show Ajiang the peel-off eyebrow pencil?"

"No, why should I show him these women's supplies?"

Su Manrong shook his head, thinking only that Ajiang would draw inferences from one example. Being extremely smart was a blessing for Yue Guo.

It's just that before, Ajiang had no intention of getting in touch with the affairs of Yue State's court, but now he has started business for Yue State.

It seems that the defeat of Yue State made them eager to enrich the country and strengthen the army and regain the lost territory.

"Now it seems that the contest between Yue Guo and Dekang is also the contest between A Jiang and Emperor Yongzhi."

Xiao Chengxian did not hide his admiration for Ajiang. Compared to Emperor Yongzhi, Ajiang's life experience was more distressing.

He came to Dekang as a hostage when he was young, and then left the country to leave the capital. In Dekang these years, he has been like a floating duck...

Time wasted on him, but it also brought him valuable experience.

He can personally experience the difficulty of being a refugee and can start from the bottom of society, because these are all things he has experienced.

But Emperor Yongzhi did not. As the legitimate son of King Cheng, Emperor Yongzhi has lived in fine clothes and fine food ever since.

The biggest setback he encountered was his third elder brother.

Although he is young and promising now, without Su Manrong's intentional guidance, it is still unclear what his destiny will be.

"The two of them rule across the river, one in the south and the other in the north. If they can help each other and expand their respective territories from south to north, they will definitely become the two powerful countries in the Central Plains."

Su Manrong thought that when they were in Qianzhou, they were brothers and shared the same ideals and beliefs.

In national affairs, we can definitely help each other and benefit the people of one side.

"Although we, as subjects of Dekang, help Emperor Yongzhi, Ajiang cannot sit idly by."

Su Manrong thought about it and then explained with a serious face: "Husband, tell the 50th Guards to spread the news about our iron mine to Yue State.

There must be a large mine in Huicheng within the territory of Yue State. If the imperial court of Yue State can send people to find large mines and smelt iron to cast weapons, there will be no need to be controlled by others."

She knew that Yue State was now engaged in commerce in order to enrich the national treasury so that it could purchase weapons in preparation for the end of the truce period in six months.

However, if weapons need to be purchased, it is very inconvenient and can be easily manipulated by others. The most fundamental solution is to let them build their own weapons.

The two of them opened the faucets in the space and let water flow into each large water tank. After leaving the space, they first told the news to the 50th Guards, and then rode out of the city.

When they arrived at the foot of the mountain, looking at the dark and terrifying mountain forest, the two of them could only walk forward in the dark.

When you encounter a relatively flat mountain road, take out your motorcycle and ride for a short distance.

If the road ahead is difficult, put away your motorcycle and walk up with your hiking sticks.

Just walking and walking like this, by the time the two of them arrived on the mountainside, it was already twelve o'clock in the middle of the night.

The reservoir was dug by Xiao Chengxian in advance and was piled with stones, leaving only a hole for carrying water.

They pulled the buckets from the space out on an iron cart, placed them in front of the reservoir, opened the large water outlet, and poured water in bucket after bucket.

While pouring water into the reservoir, the free bucket will continue to collect water in the space, and this cycle will continue.

After more than an hour, the reservoir was finally filled.

"If the water is not enough for three days, the workers will have to go to the mountainside to fetch water."

Su Manrong thought that after the workers came to work, there would be too many people here, and she would not be able to come here to store water openly.

"That's enough." Xiao Chengxian thought that the workers were all gentlemen, and apart from drinking water, they shouldn't need to wash frequently to waste water.

"At that time, I will let people build a wooden house at the foot of the mountain and put some toiletries in it. If it is time for someone to take a rest and go home, they can wash up and rest at the foot of the mountain before going home."

Xiao Chengxian thought that most people who work outside do not want to be dusty when they come home, so it is necessary to have a public bathroom.

Anyway, there is no shortage of water resources and firewood at the foot of the mountain, and it is convenient to wash yourself with warm water.

"My husband is really considerate."

Su Manrong nodded repeatedly.

"This is Mu Yan's idea, but we haven't had time to sort it out yet. I'll make an appointment and she'll arrange for someone to come over tomorrow."

Xiao Chengxian curled his lips guiltily. Generally speaking, he was a grown man, and his mind could not be so delicate that he would even pay attention to the workers' washing.

However, when Mu Yan mentioned this matter, he felt it made sense and agreed to Mu Yan's proposal.

As for the rest of the time, it was all Mu Yan's fault...

"Mu Yan is a woman who has ideas and dares to do things. If Ancheng develops well, with her ability, it will be more than enough to become a female official."

Su Manrong thought of the heroic Mu Yan, and pictured her wearing armor, riding on a horse and giving orders to the entire army.

She could also be a civil servant and debate with those pedantic old men.

Anyway, with her talent, she will definitely be a very popular minister in the future. If she stays in Ancheng, she will indeed be overqualified.

"How did Madam know? Mu Yan said that she wanted to be someone like Madam. She wanted to go to Dekang one day and go to the court to chat with the Confucian scholars."

Xiao Chengxian took the lead to walk to the zipline and tidied up the iron mesh that was supposed to carry the ore.

The two of them had to take the zip line down the mountain, which could save a lot of energy.

However, the zipline here is definitely not as strong and safe as the slide rail in Qianzhou, but if the two of them stand in the iron net, if danger occurs, they can hide in the space immediately, so they don't have to worry so much.

"Then this time my husband will give Mu Yan more opportunities so that she can express herself well."

Su Manrong was supported by Xiao Chengxian and climbed onto the iron net on the zip line first. She and Xiao Chengxian had the same rope hanging around their waists, so that when they were in danger, they didn't have to worry about not being able to enter the space together.

"I told her to take notes on the top of the mountain, and then go to the iron-making workshop to take notes. In the future, she will go to the emperor to report on matters related to the Ancheng Iron Mine for me."

Xiao Chengxian is also a person who cherishes talents, and he doesn't want to be in the limelight everywhere.
