Seeing that Tang Liu was short of money to spend, Chen Mu felt a little guilty in his heart, because he felt that this was a mistake of his own.

Can't let the partners suffer from poverty, this is one of the basic principles of Chen Mu's work, so Chen Mu told Tang Liu about the paper mill, hoping that Tang Liu would help publicize it, and it was best to publicize the paper of Dunhuang to the officialdom of the capital, and then guarantee to share.

Chen Mu also said to Tang Liu, the government should not collect taxes from paper sellers, and must take care of the officials and don't go to the trouble of the merchants, and I will ask the paper mill to send you money on a monthly basis. At the very least, the normal operation of the government and county government offices is ensured.

Hearing this, Tang Liu was very happy and felt that the trip was worthwhile.

During the chat, Tang Liu seemed to mention the matter of "Luohan Hall" intentionally or unintentionally, Chen Mu said, there is always a degree to do things, if they go to the county government to find trouble again, I will let them disappear.

Then Tang Liu took his leave.

"Why is the establishment of the Lu Han and Hu Crossbow Engineer Regiment in the First Brigade?" Chen Mu was puzzled: "Hurry up and transfer to the second brigade." Another 800 people were arranged to report to Kong Xiaoxian. ”

Hanxiang hurriedly stood up and said, "It was arranged by my father, and I will notify you immediately." ”

"Wait, you call him first."

"Whoa."

The lame man went out of the city to test the cannon, and he couldn't come back for a while, Chen Mu was not in a hurry, he changed into civilian clothes, changed his head shape, held a seven-inch folding fan, and went shopping with the heroic Zhong Lixiang.

Hearing this, Hanxiang frowned for a while, but she wouldn't say something strange like Xiaohuan.

Zhong Lixiang was dressed like a head catcher, covered with green cloth, with a long lame foot, and a yin and gang appearance. I don't know where she got this official uniform, it should be from Tang Liu. After all, she has met Tang Liu many times, and she is already somewhat familiar, and she will definitely not postpone asking Tang Liu to do this little thing.

After tightening her belt, Miss Zhongli looks like she has the sense of "undefeated in the East" in the movie, which is of course what Chen Mu said.

Zhong Lixiang didn't know what the meaning of the words "East is undefeated" was, but it shouldn't be a bad word when it sounded, so the girl was quite satisfied.

"Where are you going today?" Zhong Lixiang asked.

"Just go for a walk."

"You've got a lot of a burden."

"Is it big?" Chen Mu looked around, pointed around and said, "Look at how many watchtowers there are in Dunhuang City, do you think they eat dry rice?" If I hadn't informed them, even Senior Sister Yan wouldn't have thought of coming and going freely. ”

Turning his head, he smiled evilly: "Besides, isn't there Dongfang Undefeated by my side, who can do anything to me?" ”

Miss Zhongli couldn't cry or laugh, and finally snorted coldly.

Maybe it was what he thought in his heart, so he subconsciously went to the human slave market.

There, there were piles of slaves, all kinds of slaves tied together, some kneeling on the ground, some crouching on the ground, some lying on the ground looking like they were about to starve to death.

"I really want to arrest these guys." Chen Mu pinched the fan.

"Then catch it." Zhong Lixiang said with his hands behind his back.

"It's not the time yet." Chen Mu sighed: "And only save one city of Dunhuang, I don't think it's interesting, if you want to save it, the whole country will save it." If I can really establish the kingdom of Anxi, the first thing I will do is to abolish the evil law. ”

At noon, Chen Mu went to the street to buy pies to eat, and added some extra money to let the lady of the pancakes put more oil.

It's not that Chen Mu likes to eat oil, but the eldest lady puts too little oil, and the surface of the pie she fried is simply dry.

It is said that the soybean oil on the market now appeared after the Empress Dowager planted soybeans on a large scale, and now it has become the main force of edible oil, replacing the original animal oil.

"Young man, it's not the eldest lady who picks the door, the current oil is too expensive."

"Oh? Why is it expensive? ”

"It's not those merchants yet, they sell for as much as they want, what else can we say."

"What about your own oil?"

"Oil extraction? Oh, young man, you look like you're a rich man, I've never seen oil extraction, it's a tiring job, and where we go to buy soybeans, they're all hidden by the grain and oil merchants. Those who came from other places to sell soybeans were either beaten away by them, or they were blocked at the city gate and taken away. I can't get to us."

"Hehe, okay." Chen Mu took a bite of the pie and said inarticulately: "After a while, the price of oil will come down." ”

The pancake lady raised her eyes and glanced at Chen Mu, shook her head and said, "You are laughing." I see, I can't get down. ”

"No, I can." Zhong Lixiang glared.

Then Chen Mu went to other stalls to inquire about the increase in grain and oil prices, and then returned to the general's mansion unhurriedly, and said to Hanxiang: "Inform Han Jianniang and ask her to tell the grain merchant Tan Gong to reduce the price of soybean oil to one-third of the current price." If he can't, let him fuck off. ”

After a pause, he said, "It's not to get out, but I'll sell it later." Not only to sell oil, but also to sell grain. ”

"Got it." Contains a chant head.

"If the General's Mansion sells grain and oil, there will be nothing for him in the future." Zhong Lixiang said indignantly.

Then Zhong Lixiang followed Chen Mu into the study and closed the door.

Hanxiang silently stared at the door, speechless for a while.

Turning her head and looking at the jade statue of "Xiang Girl" on the table, she liked it very much, but when she knew that Zhong Lixiang also had one, she couldn't be happy.

If it weren't for the fact that this jade statue was tailor-made for her by Chen Mu, she might have been thrown aside a long time ago.

The girl's mind is complicated, but things still have to be done, so she sent someone to tell Han Jianniang.

In the afternoon, Han Jianniang twisted her waist to find Chen Mu, and as soon as they met, she was angry: "Oh, General Chen, you are such a big official, I went to Tan Gong to talk about this, and Tan Gong was so scared that he urinated, and told his subordinates at that time to bring down the price of oil." Doing something for you, that's not a bit ambiguous, hehe. ”

"Don't smile at me." Chen Mu knocked on the table and said, "Tan Gong is so capable, he can run to the city gate to beat his peers, do you know this?" ”

"Ahem, that's all rumors in the market, don't believe it. Peers are enemies, even if there are some bumps, it is normal. Let's not worry about it. ”

Han Jianniang was still in the mood to flatter her eyes, Chen Mu smiled: "Okay, I don't worry about it, then I'll let you worry about it in the future." If this happens again, I'll ask you. I gave you ten soldiers, what do you think you are for, accompanying you everywhere all day long? I found out that after Li Xian and Jiang Wei left, you seem to have no opponent. Tan Gong dares to do this, does he have the support behind you? Should I transfer Li Xian back and supervise you? ”

Han Jianniang couldn't laugh anymore, she drooped her face and lowered her head.

"You're ready to sit for me!" Chen Mu slapped the table: "Don't be loose all day long." Look at your official uniform, have you changed? The neckline is almost open to the navel, it looks like a swing, what a system! I want to set up an economic supervision office, and from today onwards, you must do things in a certain way! ”

Angry, he pointed at Han Jianniang's nose: "If I hadn't found out, would you still plan to raise the price of grain?" It's lawless! ”

The first is the latest.
