The whole team consisted of fourteen people and two dogs. When they went, the soldiers were confident that they wanted to bring back a lot of salt, but in fact there was not much.

In the end, the soldiers and experts did not take away their own ten catties of salt, but handed them all over to Ruan Bai for unified operation.

So, after more than two months, when the weather was already hot, they got a lot of money.

The pro-soldiers had long forgotten about the stubble, and they didn't know why at all, so they looked down at the note in their hands: "What is this?" ”

The doors and windows of the large study are closed, and the four ice basins are placed in the four corners, exuding a hint of coolness. The carpet that was originally laid on the floor has been replaced with a cool bamboo mat.

The fat men who refused to shave their hair fell to the ground.

When the soldiers came in, they were careful to settle down.

"Passbook." Chu Hao explained what a passbook was, and couldn't help but stand up, bend down and drag the big fat aside, so that a golden rooster independent soldier could put down the other leg, "Didn't you give ten catties of rose salt to Lord Ruan last time?" That's all the money you get back from the sale. ”

The big fat was like a dead dog, let Chu Hao toss, and he didn't even want to move his tail.

The pro-soldiers wanted to laugh, but none of them dared to touch the fat man.

"The number on the passbook is your money, and you can use the passbook to go to the post station to withdraw money. Now all major cities in the country can withdraw money, and Shunyang Post can also be used. ”

Since Ruan Bai attaches great importance to education, Chu Hao has indeed seen the fierceness of those post soldiers, and now he has also launched basic education for the people under him. However, there are many people under him, and he can't do it in a short period of time like Ruan Bai treats the post guards, and he can only talk about some basic literacy and the like.

The soldiers didn't even understand the words on the passbook, but the problem was to understand: "My lord, why do you have so much money?" ”

Salt is quite expensive. But ten catties of salt can't be sold for that much money! Could it be that Lord Chu watched their brothers suffer at home and paid them benefits out of his own pocket?

There's no need. They're on good terms now. The entire Guan army, who doesn't know that the welfare of their Chu family army is better than that of the Cao family army. It's hot now, and there is sugar water to drink every afternoon, which is chilled, cool, and comfortable.

"Rest assured, this money is given to you after deducting the cost." Chu Hao was reluctant to talk more about Ruan, the black businessman, and Bai's profit-making methods, and simply answered a few questions about passbooks and postal savings in detail to his subordinates, and then let them leave.

He walked around a screen, looked at Ruan Bai, who was sleeping on all fours like the fat people, and re-covered him with the thin blanket that had been kicked to the ground.

In the past two days, Ruan Bai has a little low-grade fever, and the whole person is a little unable to keep up. Fortunately, they came from Xijing this time, and even the doctor brought two of them, but they were able to condition Ruan Bai's body at all times.

"Hot ......" Ruan Bai didn't fall asleep, the whole person was uncomfortable, his eyes narrowed slightly, he leaned towards Chu Hao a little like a coquette, and stretched out his hand to pull the thin blanket.

"Don't move." Chu Hao hurriedly pressed him tightly, sat on the low couch, and let Ruan Bai pilllow his legs, "Be careful to catch a cold again." Still want to do it? ”

"Hmph." Ruan Bai didn't even have the strength to hum, his face turned, and he pushed his lower abdomen with his head.

With such a sensitive part being hit like this, Chu Hao almost reacted, and quickly dragged his head out: "Don't make trouble." "Obviously, this guy's body is thin, and he is lazy, and the most positive thing he usually does is to tease the dog, and even he, the person next to him, doesn't know that he secretly rubbed and made such a big thing.

The concept of postal savings was once mentioned to him by Ruan Bai, and it was indeed written in the plan for his father back then. But he thought it would take years for that to happen, and he didn't expect it to happen so soon.

"Sleep with me." I always feel that the more I sleep, the lazier I become, and I just can't open my eyelids.

"Hmm." No matter how much he does, it's still okay to take a nap with his wife.

At this moment, the butterfly love flowers in Beijing, Xijing, and Jinning have been restored to calm.

A month ago, rose salt's butterfly love flowers appeared in the three places, and it instantly swept the entire circle of celebrities and ladies in high society. Transparent glass bottles, pink crystals, and freshly cut roses are placed in one place, and the visual impact caused by the "blood damage" is very amazing.

A lot of people don't even ask what it is, and they pay for it.

In a glass bottle the size of half a fist of the girl, there were only two taels of rose salt, and the price was two taels of silver. In the eyes of these noble ladies who are not bad for money......

"It's only two taels of silver."

"It's not expensive."

"Buy, buy, buy!"

As a result, even though the daily supply was limited to fifty bottles, the rose salt was quickly sold out. The situation of crazy robbery, even the clerk and shopkeeper of Butterfly Love Flower did not expect it.

The price of two taels of silver was directly set by the owner, and they thought the owner was crazy at the beginning. Isn't it just salt with a different color, isn't it salt? Two taels of salt are sold for two taels of silver, this is crazy, right?

Well, in the end, it turned out that it was not their owner Ruan Bai who lost their minds, but these wealthy ladies.

Leaving aside the private money given to the ten guards and two experts, the remaining part was used to purchase coarse salt, and after refining it, it was transported back to Shunyang Pass, which was equivalent to the salt consumption of the border army in the entire Shunyang area for more than a year -- not only the border army in Shunyang Pass, but also the entire frontier army in the western frontier under the jurisdiction of Shunyang.

Even when Chu Hao got this number, he was stunned. They didn't bring back much rose salt. Fortunately, General Cao is no longer in charge of government affairs, otherwise he wouldn't be scared out?

The bottle of rose salt that was sent to the prince at the beginning has not been followed, Chu Hao thought about it, and decided to write a report on the profit this time and submit it to the imperial court.

The imperial court is now very short of money.

Chu Hao got up from the couch, tried his best to take care of his hands and feet, didn't wake up Ruan Bai, twisted the hand towel, wiped his sweaty forehead, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: I finally fell asleep.

He doesn't know medical science, but he knows that sick people need to rest. Ruan Bai's body usually looks fine, but once it encounters the heat and cold and the change of seasons, it is easy to have problems; It's not too strict, but it's inevitable that you'll have to stay in bed for a few days.

In fact, Chu Hao's letter is not much of a problem. Beijing, Xijing, Jinning, the three places are linked, how can the matter of rose salt be hidden from the eyes of the adults in the court?

There are even some people who are already sweating on their foreheads at this moment, not hot, but cold sweat and weak sweat. Nothing else, I still remember that a month ago, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince took a bottle of rose salt and presented it to the emperor, and the emperor also convened the important ministers to discuss.

But in the end, when calculating the benefits, all the important ministers unanimously felt that paying such a big price for a so-called salt mine was simply a brain. I never thought that that bit of salt could be sold for a sky-high price!

It's not a salt mine at all, it's a gold mine!

When he got the results of the preliminary exploration, even the emperor's hands trembled. This kind of neighbor threw a five-million bearer lottery ticket on the ground in front of his house, and he only had to open the door and bend down to pick it up~

The important ministers had a lively discussion in the imperial study for several days, and the main topics were as follows.

"Take the salt mines!"

"Whew!"

"Sweep the Huns away!"

"Whew!"

The prince wiped his face, looked at the red-faced monarchs and ministers, and handed over a book of folds tremblingly: "The sons and daughters have a book to play." ”

The thickness of the excerpt is comparable to that of a book, and it is densely packed with small letters of fly's head, full of plans for the peaceful evolution of the steppe.

When he came back, because Princess Min's marriage was imminent, he just sorted out the development plan of Lingnan and handed it to his father.

The plan of the grassland was too huge, and the news and contacts in the capital were sufficient, so he re-found some people from the Lingnan side and the Zheng family to come over to discuss and improve it, and it was delayed until today.

The emperor's little old man was full of red light, and he was originally a little unhappy to be interrupted by his son, but looking at the thickness of the recital, the sentence "nonsense" choked in his throat and turned the recital over. His expression changed from the original perfunctory to more and more focused, and finally he let out a long sigh, handed the fold to Gonggong Cai, and waved his hand: "You Aiqing circulate it." ”

In the imperial study, which was still full of emotions just now, it quickly fell silent.

After a long time, the last important minister closed the fold and handed it over to Gonggong Cai again.

The emperor asked, "What do you think?" ”

"The afterlife is terrifying...... "The back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and they have died on the beach.

As they were sighing, Xiao Xizi suddenly came in a hurry, handed over a book of folds after saluting, and whispered, "Lord Ruan's." ”

Nguyen Bai was one of the few officials who had the right to hand over the folds directly to the emperor. This right is envied by others. If they have the ability, then of course they can also fight for it. But people have to be self-aware, right? Besides, these are all old men who have stepped into the coffin with one foot, what kind of fight with other teenagers, isn't it a shame? It's better to make a good relationship and have a good relationship, so that future generations can have another way in the future.

Ruan Bai's memo was written after returning from the grassland.

"Ancient legends?" The emperor immediately looked at it, and it was a little inexplicable at the beginning, and then his eyes lit up, and he patted the imperial case, "Wuli people? Ulli people! That's right! Our Zhou and Huns are originally a family, and they are all descendants of the Uli people! ”

The ministers didn't know why, and when they heard that they and their sworn enemies had become a family, they all had dog-like expressions. Is the emperor crazy?
