Wanmiao nodded gently and gently told her: "Be careful of everything!"

No matter what, in her opinion, money or something outside of her body is the most important thing to keep her own safety.

When Du Bai walked over, he could see the prefect who was wearing casual clothes listening to the report of a person who should also be an official at the same table.

"...A few days ago, a farmer raised chickens, ducks and beasts were eaten raw by a girl near the foot of the mountain. Some days later, the farmer wanted to catch her and was beaten and injured. It was very strange, probably a little..."

The prefect was frowning and listening, looking up at Du Bai coming, waved to the people around him: "Okay, let's talk about these things when I go back. Now I have guests coming here, which is not very convenient."

"yes!"

The official wanted to continue speaking, but he could only follow the instructions, get up and retreat aside, and leave a seat for Du Bai.

Du Bai glanced at the few people present, but he didn't feel like a Hongmen Banquet. Instead, he was quite harmonious, which made him a little confused and didn't understand the intention of inviting him to come.

"You are Mr. Du Bai and Mr. Du of the Su family? Please sit down, don't be polite." The prefect did not act as an official, but was quite kind like an ordinary elder.

This is different from what Du Bai saw from Zhuerdan's dream.

It seems that my personal impression is different, and Zhu Erdan is more serious.

After Du Bai sat down, he thought about it and asked, "I don't know why the Lord of the Instructor invited Xiaomin to come here?"

He doesn't like being silly and slanderous, so it's better to be straightforward.

The prefect stroked his beard and smiled: "Don't worry, it's a good thing for me to come to your Su family this time."

"I heard that your Su family has recently made a special glass with excellent quality and amazing. I also played with one of them two days ago, which is indeed good."

"I will ask you, is that Liuli really made by your Su family?"

Sure enough, the topic still comes to this.

Du Bai nodded: "This matter is absolutely true. I must have heard about Deputy Envoy Fan a few days ago. Even the Rong family cannot imitate it. I am confident that the only one in the world who can make glass in our Su family is probably the only one in the Su family."

There is no need to hide this matter, so he told it truthfully, and he could find out with the ability of the prefect.

"It's true." The prefect seemed quite happy, but the topic that followed surprised Du Bai even more.

"This treasure is rare in the world. Have you ever thought of tribute to the palace and turn it into a tribute?"

"Give me a gift?"

Du Bai was shocked.

This matter is not a small fight like before. If it is related to the current emperor, if you are not careful, your family will be destroyed. However, the same opportunities and dangers coexist. If Long Yan is happy, it is not impossible to turn over and achieve great achievements.

It seems that the prefect is very confident in the Su family’s Liuli!

Du Bai had some speculations in his heart, but he still looked nervous and terrified: "Sir, we, the common people, dare not think about this matter, only dare to follow the instructions of the adults..."

"Haha, you don't have to be so careful. I have heard that you and that boy Fan Yilin are not at a disadvantage when facing each other. They don't seem to be afraid of these things."

The prefect smiled and said, "If you can take out ten top-level glasses within half a month, I can make the decision and hand over the quota for the official kiln to your Su family!"

Du Bai felt a stern in his heart. It seemed that he was coming!

Are the prefect planning to attack the official kiln?

He had also heard some rumors before, saying that the quality of the official kiln in Lin'an in recent years has been declining, which has affected the issue of quota for offerings.

First of all, we must understand that although the offerings here are given to the palace for free, the benefits are obvious, which is to pay protection fees to the government and even become a "friend" of the government.

Not only is it no longer the small businessman who has a relatively low status and can bully anyone, but has become an existence that is equal to or even more transcendent than officials, but it can also get a certain priority for government procurement, and its reputation is very different...

If you can exchange these invisible benefits with a few small glasses, the Su family will make a lot of money!

In the past, this position was occupied by Ding Kiln, which is also one of the main reasons why the official kiln is transcendent.

However, in recent years, some people have obviously been too comfortable and forgot their own purpose, which has aroused the dissatisfaction of the prefect.

But things are still a bit strange...

Du Bai thought about it and asked again: "Our Su family should be able to provide ten top-level glasses, but they don't know where the official kiln..."

This matter is not something that can be simply described in just one sentence like ordinary people. No matter how bad the official kiln is, it is still an official kiln. If it weren't for some deep reason, the prefect would rashly offend some people to take down this quota?

He doesn't believe it.

At this time, the opera was already started on the stage below, and the sings were quite lively. Various actresses, swordsmen, young actors, and martial artists appeared frequently, and there were endless streams. As the plot was promoted, cheers came one after another, and some guys who were too immersed in the play also shouted and scolded.

The prefect seemed to be fascinated by the show and did not reply for a while. Du Bai did not urge him, but just waited quietly.

After waiting for a while, the prefect's calm voice sounded again: "Do you know... who is in charge of Dingyao now?"

He gently tapped the table as he spoke, as if he was following the rhythm of the music below, but in fact he could feel some emotional changes in his heart.

A person who can make the prefect who is in charge of a government feel anxious...

Du Bai was silent for a moment: "The little people don't know."

"Fan Xuewen, Governor." said the prefect lightly, "that is, Fan Yilin's father who is against you."

"Governor!" Du Bai suddenly understood a little.

No wonder Fan Yilin is so arrogant, no wonder even the prefect can't do anything to the other party. It turns out that he is the governor...

The governor's position is one level higher than that of the prefect, and indirectly it has long been the position of Fan Yilin here.

"The Fan family is becoming more and more proud now. There are many ministers in the court who speak for him, and there are also many servants who provide advice on him. Do you know the reason for this?"

The prefect talked about many secrets in the officialdom, whether intentionally or not.

"Because of the silver..."

"Where does the silver come from? These businesses under his command are one of the sources. I think that the official kiln should have made porcelain for the emperor, but now it has become the Fan family's method of making money, which is really disgusting..."

It seems that this adult was also feeling depressed for a long time. At this moment, there was no outsider around him, so he would not speak up, and there was a little obvious anger in his voice.
