The scheming empress starts by conquering men

The official in charge of mining was awakened from her sweet dream when her subordinates reported that Shao Chaogan had arrived.

She pushed away the sleeping male slave beside her, and with eye boogers in her sleepy eyes, she ran out in a panic without even putting on her clothes.

Looking at Shao Chaogan standing in the mine in the distance, he knelt on the ground with a plop and kowtowed tremblingly.

"Youzi has met the Marquis."

Looking at the official who ran out in a panic, and then seeing that she looked like she had just woken up, and there were some red marks on her exposed skin, Shao Chaogan's face suddenly changed.

He subconsciously looked at Shaodian Si Shui, his eyes filled with an indelible look of astonishment.

Shaodian Sishui's lips curled up slightly, and he looked back at Shao Chaogan with interest, raising his eyebrows slightly.

Is this what the secret letter said, that the officials were dedicated and worked day and night to supervise the miners and the pheasants?

He is really dedicated and dedicated, working day and night!

She sneered and moved away, walked to the side of the official and looked around. This natural mine was really big.

Shaodian Sishui's sneer was like a goose feather brushing across Shao Chaogan's cheek.

It didn't hurt, but it was unbearable, and her face turned red in an instant.

I'm angry!

He looked away with embarrassment and stared fiercely at the official on the ground.

If looks could kill, this official would have been put to death by slicing.

It was really a disgrace to the grandmother, especially in front of the Sixth Prince.

She never expected that what was written in the secret letter was even more unbearable than what she saw with her own eyes. Not only were those unruly people cunning and deceitful, but even these officials were the same.

Isn't this a slap in the face of Shao Chaogan!

In broad daylight, actually... actually!

"How dare you to indulge in lust in broad daylight! How shameless!"

Shao Chaogan looked very unhappy and gloomy. He stood there with his hands behind his back, glaring at the official on the ground.

"My Lord, please spare my life! I...I have been awake all night for many days. Today I can't stand it anymore, so I...I am taking a short rest."

Beads of sweat the size of beans dripped onto the ground from the wanderer's forehead. He didn't even dare to raise his head. With trembling hands, he quickly fastened his clothes in secret.

Just now, the moment I saw the Marquis.

She felt death calling.

It feels like a thorn in the back and the whole body feels cold.

She also didn't expect that the Marquis would come to the mine in person. No noble had ever set foot in this mine, and the Marquis was the first.

When Shaodian Sishui heard Youzi say "staying awake for many days and nights", she looked back at her curiously.

The woman is strong and vigorous, with bronze skin, which is related to years of hard work.

Maybe I'm getting a little old, my upper eyelids are drooping, forming an inverted triangle eye.

He has a hooked nose, slightly blue lips, and a big black mole between his eyebrows.

Her facial features are very distinct and she can be recognized at a glance in a crowd.

"Why don't you get up and lead the way?"

Shao Bohou snorted impatiently, knowing that what this man said could not be trusted.

But at least it gave her a way out so that she wouldn't lose face in front of the Sixth Prince.

"Well, thank you for your kindness, my Lord."

The wanderer stood up tremblingly, with his head down, not daring to look directly at Shao Bohou.

"Since this is your first offense, I will spare your life for now. If you do it again, you will be like those pheasants and work for me. You will never leave the mines even if you die."

Shao Chaogan looked at the kiss mark on her neck and felt so angry that he had no way to vent. He wanted to cut her into pieces, but he held back.

She suppressed her anger, gritted her teeth, turned her back and didn't look at her, out of sight, out of mind.

Youzi quietly wiped the sweat from his forehead and answered carefully: "Well, Youzi will remember the Marquis's teachings and there will not be a next time."

She rolled her eyes, raised her head with a helpless look, and knelt down again.

"Please, Lord, make the decision!"

Shaodian Sishui had been secretly observing Youzi and intuitively felt that this official was pretending to obey orders but actually disobeying them.

She didn't say anything, but just stood by and watched carefully, watching the official display his acting talent to the fullest.

Shao Chaogan, who was angry, was stunned for a moment, looked back at Youzi, a little puzzled.

"I will make the decision for you?"

Could it be that there is some hidden story that she doesn't know about?

But on second thought, any hidden secret was not an excuse for her to indulge in lust in broad daylight.

I was just about to scold her for being so rude.

Youzi wept bitterly, saying, "My Lord, those unruly people are so bold! They all went on strike the day before yesterday. I persuaded them for two days in a row, even if I increased the salary to one premium shell coin per month, they reluctantly agreed. But they still do what they want and act cunningly."

After she finished speaking, she looked frustrated and raised her hands to bow.

"I have failed to do my job well, please punish me, my Lord!"

Shao Chaogan's mind went blank for a moment because of Youzi's crying, and he didn't think about what she said.

Instead, I think it’s no big deal for a grown woman to cry about it. Is it necessary?

She hadn't even scolded her yet, but she started crying.

"As a woman, you can't shed tears but bleed. How can you cry so much?" Shao Chaogan said in an unhappy voice.

Shaodian Sishui grasped the key point of her words and asked curiously.

"Lobbying them to give them one premium shell coin per month? Who will give these premium shell coins to, and to whom?"

Youzi was stunned for a moment, turned his head to look to the side, and then he found that there was another person next to him.

She glanced at Shaodian Sishui and paused slightly.

The woman in front of him was dressed in gorgeous clothes, had a beautiful face, and exuded an air of nobility.

She came with Shao Bohou, could she be a noble?

Thinking of this, her eyes flickered, but she didn't dare to think too much. She quickly lowered her head and recalled what the woman had just asked.

Subconsciously, he replied as a matter of course: "Of course it was given by the Marquis, to that group of people."

Shaodian Sishui smiled softly, her voice charming and hoarse.

Shao Chaogan's expression changed immediately, and he reacted, staring at Youzi who was kneeling on the ground.

"You have such a loud voice!"

Does she look like a sucker?

Although she also had fine shell coins, she didn't have many. They were all given by His Majesty himself after she won many battles.

She was reluctant to use even one, yet this official in front of her was promising those unruly people one per month?

One high-quality shell coin is worth five ordinary shell coins, but she dares to ask for such a high price!

Shaodian Sishui's eyes fell on Shao Chaogan, his expression was indifferent, and no emotion could be seen on his face. He said: "It's just a fine shell coin, the Marquis should give it to you."

She said this very casually, so casually that even Shao Chaogan was a little confused.

"what?"

The Sixth Prince told her to give it?

"No ..."

Why should she give it? Is Sixth Prince trying to make her a sucker?

Shaodian Sishui secretly gave her a look that reminded her to stay calm, and looked at the kneeling Youzi calmly.

"Go and tell those people right now that they will pay one fine coin per month and that they must work eight hours a day. Once the contract is signed, pay them first and then start working."

Youzi was stunned and thought, is there such a good thing?

Then she made a fortune from it!!

She raised her head with a happy look on her face. "Well, Youzi will go and tell them right away. I think they will definitely work very hard."

Shaodian Sishui took out a contract from his hand and handed it to her.

"Take a look at this contract. If it is correct, let those people come over to sign it."

Youzi took it and looked at it carefully.
