My whole family was in exile, and I relied on my space to buy half of my country.

Chapter 228 Hu Dangui’s sister and brother meet

"How to boil salt..." Qin Chi was a little ashamed. When he heard that his wife wanted to choose the person in charge of the salt farm, he immediately stood up and eagerly wanted to take over the matter.But he had no idea how sea water could be turned into salt.

Jiang Tangtang said: "I will tell you how to boil salt. You need some things to boil salt and extract coarse salt. You first prepare the manpower needed in the salt field. When I have the things ready, gather people together for a class."

In this day and age, many industries are passed down from generation to generation.Except for the direct descendants and direct descendants, no one can know the secret recipe.What's more, in an industry like salt production, it is even more impossible for outsiders to know its salt production methods.

Qin Chi didn't know, it was normal.

I heard that Jiang Tangtang not only knows how to dry sea salt and boil salt, but also knows how to refine coarse salt.Everyone in the staff office was shocked by Jiang Tangtang's knowledge.

This is too much to know!

How did she do it and know so much?

Among them, there were also people who were originally from the capital and had heard about the absurd behavior of the Crown Prince’s wife in the Dingbei Marquis Mansion.

People couldn't help but think that the rumors were all lies. Their wife was extremely talented. How could she be such a ridiculous person? Her talent must have aroused people's jealousy, so she deliberately spread such rumors to ruin her reputation. .

Jiang Tangtang didn't know that someone had come up with an explanation for her obviously superior knowledge reserve. After arranging the salt drying field, she began to arrange the sugar mill.

She wanted to develop the streets and towns in Lingnan into a modern metropolis, so she made plans early when she built the house and sold it.

In addition to building sewer pipes and public toilets like modern ones on the streets to avoid open defecation, drinking water pollution, and plague caused by too much population, commercial streets and workshops were also planned separately.

A large piece of land was allocated in the suburbs specifically for building workshops.

Like last time, Jiang Tangtang first drew the preliminary construction drawings of Tangfang.She still drew on some modern experience, and then had people who knew construction make professional revisions. Finally, after discussions and confirmation, the drawings were drawn up.

Wan Gui is Fu Jingchu's apprentice.

He was originally just a small bricklayer.

When Baodao was building military fortresses and city walls, he was short of manpower, so he was chosen to serve as Fu Jingchu's assistant. Fu Jingchu saw that he had a bright mind and was diligent and studious, so he accepted him as his apprentice.

A few days ago, Jiang Tangtang was building a house and selling it, and needed someone urgently, so he hired him. The monthly salary offered was slightly lower than that of a staff member in the Staff Office, but it was also one of the rare high-paying jobs nowadays.

The last time the house drawings in Qiongzhou and other places were mainly completed by him.

Jiang Tangtang was very satisfied with his performance last time and gave him a monthly salary increase. This time, he was also put in charge of Tangfang.

Jiang Tangtang was busy making various arrangements before leaving for the capital. On the other side, Lu Shiyan was also making pretentious arrangements.

When the two of them go to the capital, they must not let too many people know about it. The people they bring out must be carefully selected, preferably those who can wear multiple hats.

During his absence, not only must the information not be leaked, but someone must also be in charge to avoid causing panic or the enemy taking advantage of the opportunity.

While the two of them were busy, Hu Yan was assigned a new job and finally had the opportunity to return to Nanzhuang, Zhouzhou, to visit his family.

"Brother Yan has grown taller. You look really good in these clothes. If your parents knew you were so promising, they would wake up laughing even if you fell asleep. It's a pity that your parents are not around and can't see your promising appearance. ”

Hu Dangui wiped away tears as he spoke.The corners of Hu Yan's eyes were also a little moist, "Sister, I will definitely work hard and follow the general well. I will respect you from now on and save face for the Hu family."

Hu Dangui sniffed, looked at him expectantly and said, "Brother Yan, you are promising now, can you find a way to find your parents?"

Hu Yan suddenly frowned and said, "Sister, my parents are probably... in danger."

If they hadn't met the lady's kindness at that time, they would not have survived.And his parents were already in poor health, and they encountered such a catastrophe...

Although the two siblings did not erect a monument, they both knew very well that their parents were probably gone.

Why did her sister suddenly mention that she wanted to find her parents?

"What if my parents met a kind-hearted person like Madam and were saved? As children, should we leave them alone like this? Even if our parents really passed away unfortunately, we as children should collect their bones. .Why don’t you care at all? Have you forgotten about your parents now that you are promising, and look down on me, a hopeless eldest sister?"

The more Hu Dangui talked, the angrier he became, and finally there was a look of resentment on his face.

"Sister, I'm not saying to leave my parents alone." Hu Yan said anxiously: "But now... I have nothing to do!"

"Why can't you do anything?" Hu Dangui said, "You are working next to the general, can't you do such a small thing?"

Hu Yan felt bitter in his heart.

This is no small matter.

In order to prevent grain from Lingnan from flowing out, border control was very strict.In addition to the strict inspection of property going out, people going out also need to be reviewed.You are not allowed to go out without justifiable reasons.

He was just an errand boy beside the general, so he had no right to go out.

Moreover, the sky is huge and the vast sea of ​​people outside, how should he find it?
Instead of running around like a headless fly, it's better to climb higher.If his parents were alive and heard the news about him, they would naturally come to look for him.

He explained the truth to Hu Dangui, but Hu Dangui did not listen to his explanation. "We are old people who follow the general and his wife. When the general and his wife were still on the road to exile, we shared the hardships. This friendship is extraordinary." , if you ask the general for such a trivial matter, he may not agree to it!"

"Discipline is the most important thing in the army. Generals never show favoritism. Sister, please don't mention this again."

Hu Yan didn't understand what was going on with his sister, why she suddenly started to get entangled, but he still said seriously: "Besides, we were saved by the madam at that time. It was a life-saving grace that will be remembered forever. It is not a matter of sharing weal and woe." Qing, we are just servants. Don't say this again, let people know, otherwise you will make fun of us because we don't know what is good or bad, and we will repay kindness with hatred."

Hu Dangui did think so at first, but since she followed Yi Run, Yi Run has been telling her that Lu Shiyan and Jiang Tangtang were also exiled criminals at the beginning.

Although he saved their lives, it was not in vain. They were servants of the Lu family and helped them a lot.

Gradually, she came to think so.

Seeing Hu Dangui's expression changing several times, as if she was struggling, Hu Yan felt more and more that something was wrong with her, and planned to find someone to find out what happened during his absence.
He stood up and said, "I brought back some snacks from the West, and I'll send one to Aunt He."

He was stirring up a hornet's nest. Hu Dangui immediately said angrily: "After all, I just think your sister is incompetent, looks down on me, and doesn't want to work hard for my parents. Why bother to find so many excuses? You said that the general is not partial, you If you are not free, where will you get the chance to buy gifts?"

Hu Yan was a little confused by her words that were like firecrackers. After a while, he said: "Can this be the same? I didn't go out to the border guard here, so I bought some in the street over there. If the eldest sister doesn't like it, I will Just don’t give it away.”
