Jiang Fuying suddenly stood up and gently tugged on his sleeve.
"Your Highness need not worry. I'll accompany you to the Moonlit Pavilion to take a look."
These words were like a gentle breeze that smoothed out the worries in Lu Huaizhou's heart.
"Good."
The Moonlit Pavilion in the White Dew Alley.
There was a constant stream of traffic and guests. There was even a long queue in front of the door, no different from the previous days.
Jiang Fuying's eyes flashed.
She knew that the Prince Lu was not a person who exaggerated. If there was no problem on the surface, then inside—
There must be a big problem!
But there were many people here, so it was not appropriate to ask directly.
She nodded at him: "Your Highness, let's go to the private room to talk."
In the private room, the shopkeeper had already been waiting for a long time.
As soon as they sat down, Lu Huaizhou took the lead to speak: "Shopkeeper, report to me the sales situation of the glass mirrors in the past few days."
"Yes."
"Reporting to Your Highness and Your Highness's wife, since the opening of the Moonlit Pavilion, the glass mirrors have become very popular in the capital. A total of..."
The shopkeeper reported according to the ledger.
Jiang Fuying had already seen those ledgers and was well aware of the sales situation.
At this moment, she suddenly could not figure out his intention.
She quietly leaned over and reminded him in a volume that only they could hear: "Your Highness, I know all these."
"I also know that you know." Lu Huaizhou replied in a low voice.
Just as Jiang Fuying was confused, she suddenly heard him instruct the shopkeeper: "All of you may leave."
Including Cai Pu and Cai Zhi, all the maids and servants in the private room left. The whole private room was left with only their husband and wife.
Lu Huaizhou frowned tightly and took out a glass mirror from his sleeve and handed it to her hand: "Miss Jiang, take a closer look."
Although Jiang Fuying did not understand why, she still took it.
This look was not good.
Just one look, she immediately distinguished: "This is not the glass mirror we made! It is a counterfeit!"
"This glass mirror is very similar in appearance to the glass mirror we sold, but the inside is completely different."
"Especially the rough workmanship and the craftsmanship in the details are far inferior to ours." She constantly turned the glass mirror and observed carefully: "Moreover, this glass mirror is completely incomparable to our glass mirror in terms of clarity."
Each glass mirror made by their Moonlit Pavilion had a corresponding standard.
If there was one place in the craftsmanship, details, and clarity that did not meet the standard, the whole glass mirror would be scrapped.
From the first day of opening the Moonlit Pavilion, they had set the rule of "not allowing defective glass mirrors to flow into the market".
So in the end, she came to a definite conclusion: "This glass mirror is not only a counterfeit, but also a shoddy counterfeit!"
Lu Huaizhou sighed: "Miss Jiang has a discerning eye, and this is exactly what I am worried about."
"Our glass mirror is unique in appearance. Except for those craftsmen, almost no one knows our specific production process. I am afraid that some of the craftsmen will collude with outsiders, and I am also afraid that their imitation technology will become more and more sophisticated. One day, they will really imitate a glass mirror that is more similar to ours, and..."
He suddenly stopped talking, and his eyes were a little dodgy.
Actually, besides this, he had a bigger worry.
He was born from the twenty-first century and knew the scientific knowledge of modern society. He could use modern scientific knowledge to make glass mirrors. What about others?
In this world, there was no guarantee that there would not be other people who were born from the twenty-first century or crossed over.
They also knew those scientific knowledge. What he could do, others could do. If the counterfeit glass mirror was the work of a certain person who crossed over in the dark, then...
He carried the name of a playboy and had no great interest in fame and profit. He could do whatever he wanted.
But Miss Jiang was different.
She was full of longing for opening the Moonlit Pavilion and hoped to use this to slap the faces of the second and third houses hard and get the power to manage the family.
He was not afraid of anything else and could explain it to her. Only this matter.
Lu Huaizhou hung his head dejectedly, and a thin layer of nervous sweat broke out on his back.
He was afraid that she would be disappointed in him because of this, and he was even more afraid that these would implicate her.
But the scene that Miss Jiang would blame and ignore him after hearing it did not appear.
Jiang Fuying smiled faintly and comforted him softly: "Your Highness may have forgotten that I am very confident in dealing with these matters."
Lu Huaizhou's body suddenly stiffened, and he suddenly looked up at her.
Jiang Fuying's eyes were smiling, but there was also a sharp edge hidden in them.
In her previous life, she had been in charge of the Pingning Marquis Mansion for ten years and was especially good at finding out the mole.
"Your Highness, I remember that you taught those craftsmen the production process of the glass mirror separately?"
Lu Huaizhou nodded: "Yes."
"That's right." A few glints of light flashed in her autumn eyes: "A few craftsmen may have the heart but not the courage and are not very daring to take risks to imitate the glass mirror. If I guessed correctly, if you want to do this, you need at least a group of people."
Lu Huaizhou was shocked and widened his eyes: "A group of people? Then all the craftsmen in our glass mirror workshop are involved?"
"We can't kill them all with one stick and wronged good people." Jiang Fuying shook her head and analyzed with him in detail: "Moreover, the glass mirror process is complicated, and we can't train new and skilled craftsmen in a short time."
"So what does Miss Jiang mean..."
"Grasp people's hearts!"
Lu Huaizhou knew very little about how to grasp people's hearts and looked at her with eager eyes.
Jiang Fuying was amused by his expression.
"Has Your Highness ever heard a saying?"
"Hmm?"
"A man and a woman work together, and the work isn't tiring."
A hint of surprise flashed in Lu Huaizhou's eyes.
This was the sentence he mentioned to her casually a few days ago. He didn't expect that she really remembered it in her heart.
"I am good at grasping people's hearts, and Prince Lu is very familiar with the glass mirror production process. How can this not be considered a match?"
"Good!" Hearing her say this, Lu Huaizhou suddenly understood and hooked his lips and smiled: "Miss Jiang can just give orders, and I will definitely cooperate with all my strength."
"With Your Highness's words, it is enough."
Jiang Fuying suddenly hooked her finger at him, indicating that he should come closer.
Lu Huaizhou was stunned at first, but when he saw her serious expression, his ears suddenly turned red.
It was a critical moment, but he still had a distracted thought. It was a sin.
"What does Miss Jiang have to say?" He suppressed the strangeness in his heart and asked quickly.
"Prince Lu, do you have the confidence to update the production process of the glass mirror?" When it came to business, Jiang Fuying's expression was solemn.
Lu Huaizhou hesitated for a moment and said truthfully: "It depends on which process to update."
Jiang Fuying rubbed the appearance of the glass mirror, and her smile did not reach her eyes: "Look, just update the appearance they are relatively good at now."
She took the rice paper on the table and drew a few crescent moons, plum blossoms, and ruyi patterns at will.
"Please ask Your Highness to teach these different marks to those craftsmen respectively."
"Miss Jiang wants to find out the mole by the marks?"
"Not all. This is just the first step." Jiang Fuying smiled mysteriously and sold him a mystery: "This matter is kept secret from Your Highness first. Your Highness will surely know the answer in a few days."
Seeing her so confident, Lu Huaizhou suddenly had a sense of honor.
His wife was very good at means and strategies. As her husband, he was very proud!
