Daqin: After marrying a vegetative princess, I went crazy with joy

Chapter 83

"Your son-in-law is fine! I have been busy with business recently, so I have time to see you. I hope my son-in-law will forgive me!"

Liu Bai who was sitting in the courtyard raised his head when he heard the sound, hey, Sima Chang is here.

Standing up to meet him, he said haha.

"Master Sima has been promoted, Liu Bai is here to congratulate you."

"Everywhere, it's all thanks to you!"

Since the two of them cooperated in the salt production last time, because Sima Chang acted quickly, he managed the Sichuan area well.

Ying Zheng was very satisfied, and he was promoted to Shaofu with an order.

Now it's not just salt, iron, stone nirvana and other matters of mountains, lakes and seas, he is in charge.

Liu Bai looked at the red light on his face and smiled.

Today's Sima Chang seems to have the demeanor of a famous general!

"Master Sima, I have invited you here this time, but I have something important to ask for!"

"Hey, where is the son-in-law, if you have something to do, just order it!"

Seeing that he was so forthright without putting on airs, Liu Bai nodded secretly.

Little did they know that before Sima Chang came, Ying Zheng had specifically ordered him to fully cooperate with Liu Bai.

In addition, his promotion was also due to Liu Bai, so how could he not do his best!
"I don't know how about the iron mine?"

Sima Chang stroked his beard and smiled.

"The son-in-law should know that the imperial court strictly prohibits the use of iron by the people, so the iron ore is in the hands of the imperial court. Except for military workshops and workshops, everything else can be used by the son-in-law!"

"Your Excellency has worked hard!"

After the two were polite to each other, Liu Bai asked about the coal again.

After all, if you want to make iron, coke is indispensable.

"The matter of Shi Nirvana has been properly arranged, don't worry, son-in-law!"

Liu Bai helped Sima Chang refill a cup of tea with his own hands, and smiled.

"Master Sima is doing business, I am really relieved!"

"Where is it, the son-in-law is the dragon and phoenix among people..."

The two chatted for a while, and Yuhuatian came to report.

"My lord, Cao Shen and the others are back!"

Liu Bai was overjoyed and hurriedly invited Sima Chang to go outside.

"Sir, please!"

"Consort please!"

The two walked out of the courtyard together, and saw Cao Shen coming in a hurry.

"I've seen the son-in-law!"

"how?"

"Everything went according to plan!"

"it is good!"

Looking at the Eagle Guards carrying bags up the mountain one by one, Liu Bai asked.

"How much salt was produced?"

Cao Shen said excitedly.

"I was afraid that you were in a hurry, so I brought back five thousand catties first, and there will be more behind, Zhou Bo will follow!"

Liu Bai patted him on the shoulder and smiled in relief.

"Thanks for your hard work!"

"It's neither bitter nor bitter, you don't know, those people from Sichuan were shocked when they saw the snow salt we made, and they said they saw a miracle..."

"I told them about your making snow salt, and they all wanted to come back with me to see what your immortal looks like!"

Sima Chang on the side smiled and echoed.

"That's right, isn't the son-in-law an immortal? Who can imagine what he did one by one?"

"Extremely great!"

Listening to the rainbow fart of the two, Liu Bai's expression did not change and his heart skipped a beat.

"Don't make fun of me! Cao Shen, tell them to move less up the mountain, as long as it is enough, the shop has been renovated, and the rest will be put there directly."

"Yes!"

"Lord Sima, I don't know if my father mentioned the sale of snow salt to you?"

The corners of Sima Chang's eyes twitched slightly. Sure enough, His Majesty guessed correctly, the son-in-law would definitely ask about this matter.

"Your Majesty has an order, and the matter of the sale is entirely up to the son-in-law, otherwise you may not obey it! My majesty, your majesty values ​​you very much!"

After all, he laughed out loud.

Liu Bai touched his nose, feeling a little shy.

This father is also true, if you want to sell, can I stop it?
Still I don't agree?

Then when you wanted to get [-]% in the first place, why weren't you so talkative?

"What's important, Father just entrusted me with all the hard work!"

"It's more work for those who can! This just means that His Majesty knows that you can handle this matter well, so I leave it to you, doesn't it?"

Liu Bai looked at Sima Chang carefully.

When I first saw him, I thought it was a lump of wood.

Looking at it now, what a talent!

No matter what he said, flowers would come out of his mouth, he was really an official!
"Let's go, let's go to the shop!"

"Consort please!"

The two of them got into the carriage together with Cao Shen and drove straight to the shop.

Liu Bai only renovated one salt shop, and the one next door was renovated and used as a warehouse.

The Eagle Guards gathered all the salt into the warehouse, leaving hundreds of catties of salt buckets poured into the shop.

When everything was ready, Liu Bai suddenly froze.

Embarrassed, I was only thinking about decorating the shop, but forgot to find a shopkeeper in advance.

Glancing at Cao Shen, Liu Bai said pretending not to care.

"Cao Shen, why don't you work as the shopkeeper for a few days first?"

Cao Shen chuckled, it turned out that the son-in-law is not so godly, he can't think everything through!

"Don't worry, son-in-law, Cao Shen will still settle the score, but son-in-law has to send another person to help me, otherwise I'm afraid I will be too busy!"

Liu Bai thought about it for a long time, and there are only so few people in his hands now.

"Should Xiao He come over? I don't know if he can be busy..."

There are still many things to do on the mountain. Since Xiao He went up the mountain, he has completely become a hands-off shopkeeper.

Isn't it a bit too much for him to watch the shop now?
"Don't worry, son-in-law, it's only a few days, it should be fine."

"Eunuch Yu, go and call Xiao He!"

"Yes!"

Not long after, Xiao He came to the shop.

When he was asked to look at the shop, his eyes widened instantly.

Son-in-law, are you treating me like a brick?Where do I need to move?

But if it's only for two or three days, it's okay, he kept urging Liu Bai to find someone quickly.

"Master Sima, do you want to go with me?"

Sima Chang just wanted to see Xueyan's reaction at the moment, so that he could return to His Majesty on business.Shaking his head again and again, he rejected Liu Bai's invitation.

After explaining, Liu Bai rode directly to the barracks.

Wang Jian, who was urging the craftsmen to work, felt dizzy when he heard the soldiers say that Liu Bai was coming.

Here it comes again, here it comes again, what is he doing to the old man again?
"Just say that the old man is not here..."

"Old General Wang, why are you talking nonsense with your eyes open?"

Wang Jian followed the prestige, but saw Wang Ben lifted the curtain and walked in with Liu Bai.

Hearing his father's words, Wang Ben knew that he had caused trouble, said something to you, and then ran away.

"Stinky boy..."

Wang Jian cursed, then turned to look at Liu Bai.

"I don't know what orders the son-in-law has here?"

The craftsmen in the military workshop all held back their smiles when they saw the old general's dark face.

They do know that the last time the son-in-law was in heaven, he made the old general miserable!
Not only did he lead the troops to wait for a long time, but he was also reprimanded by His Majesty, saying that the heavy crossbowmen were slow.

After returning, the old general personally trained the heavy crossbowmen for a long time.

"Old general, it's a good thing that I came to you this time..."

"Hmph, what good can you do?"

"Look at what you said, don't you often help those veterans? Now that I have found a way out for them, you can say whether you want it or not..."

When Wang Jian heard the words, his eyes lighted up slightly, he turned his head to stare at him, and asked.

"Really?"

Liu Bai looked up at the sky at 45 degrees.

"Hey... I came here with a loyal heart, but I was rejected by others. It's really sad! Forget it, I'd better go back..."

Seeing him turn around to leave, Wang Jian didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and slapped him on the back.

"Brat, speak up!"

Liu Bai returned to normal in an instant, and said with a playful smile.

"Hey, the strength of the old general is really not small. Really, I really found a way out for them..."
