In Wei Su's view, he was sent as a gift to urge Liu Ping, a debtor, to repay his debts.

But Liu Ping didn't touch her, obviously preparing to go to the end and didn't plan to repay the debt, so he didn't accept her gift.

Thinking of this, she felt a sense of grievance in her heart.

"Is the king going to drive the little girl back to the Wei family?"

A layer of mist appeared in Wei Su's big eyes, he was sent away by his father, and no one wanted it, and if he was driven back again, he would be able to hold his head up in the Wei family in the future?

If that's the case, it's better to hit your head and die.

"What are these words?" Liu Ping knew that the girl in front of him had misunderstood herself, so he said with a smile: "I think you are a girl, it's too hard to do these things, anyway, those soldiers have to practice, and letting them clean the courtyard is regarded as a drill, how can you ever dislike you?" ”

"The king," Wei Su's tears couldn't help but flow, and he suddenly knelt at Liu Ping's feet, choked up: "The little girl knows that her identity is disliked by the king, but since the little girl has come to the king, whether the food is returned or not, the little girl is the king's person, and she has nothing to do with the Wei family, so I beg the king to believe that the little girl is loyal to the king." ”

"Don't worry," Liu Ping stretched out his hand to help Wei Su up, "The grain owed to Wei, I said that it is a loan, and it will be returned, and it will be repaid together with interest, and it will never make you embarrassed in the middle." ”

The news that Tao Qing was boiling salt had to be kept absolutely confidential, and even Wei Su couldn't tell her, so she could only say this ambiguously to make her feel at ease.

After Liu Ping left, Wei Su stood alone in the courtyard in a daze, and that sentence obviously did not make her feel relieved.

Although she didn't know what Liu Ping was doing these days, she happened to see that the grain she borrowed from the Wei family was carried out in large quantities.

Naturally, she didn't know that when the three armies went out to fight, of course each had to carry food.

In Wei Su's eyes, the food in King Qin's Mansion will only get less and less, how can it suddenly change back at that time, and still be able to pay off the interest of Wei?

She wiped her tears silently, feeling that she was really miserable, sandwiched between her mother's family and the so-called "husband's family" with huge debts.

But fortunately, Liu Ping didn't say anything to drive her away, so she continued to lower her head and clean the yard......

After Liu Ping returned to the study, he wrote a letter and asked people to send it to Fan Xian in Xuzhou.

As Tao Qing sent someone to report that the salt he had boiled had become more and more, Liu Ping was ready to contact the sales market and exchange the salt for food.

When today's turbulent areas, a little stable, and no delay in agricultural production, one is Liu Biao's Jingxiang, and the other is Liu Zhang's Bashu, these two places are not affected by the war, and the grain is still abundant.

However, for Liu Ping, his nemesis Liu Bei is now under Jingxiang Liu Biao.

At the beginning, he hurt Liu Bei so badly, even Liu Bei's wife was arrested, if he went to Jingxiang to exchange food, after Liu Bei knew, I am afraid that he would rob the grain desperately with red eyes.

Therefore, there is only one way out left for Liu Ping, to go to Bashu.

It's a pity that Liu Ping only has military generals under him, and he goes to Shu to contact merchants to exchange grain, but he needs trade-oriented talents, so Fan Xian naturally appeared in his plan.

At the same time, he was also worried that Lao Fan was too slippery and refused to come to sell his life, so Liu Ping wrote a letter to the current Xuzhou pottery merchant, telling the potter that Lao Fan would be tied even if he was tied up.

The letter was sent by Kuaima day and night, but after more than ten days, Fan Xian had already appeared in front of Liu Ping.

"When Xuzhou was farewell, it was only a year ago, and I never thought that the king had already seized Guanzhong, which is really gratifying." When Fan Xian first came, he looked very emotional.

"Yes," Liu Ping also said politely: "Looking back on the past, when we went to the grassland together, it was still like yesterday." ”

"I am fortunate to have the favor of the king in the next life, and I am inexhaustible in this life, if the king has orders, even if I open my mouth, I will serve the king before and after the saddle, so there is no need to involve the Tao envoy in it, right?"

Liu Ping kept smiling, it seems that the potter is very powerful, if he hadn't used any violent means, this Fan Lao would not have come so quickly.

He also snorted and said: "That's natural, we are a lifelong friendship, and with benefits, this king naturally wants to think about you."

I wonder if there are any familiar merchants in Shudi? ”

"Yes," Fan Xian knew that Liu Ping was looking for him for help, and hurriedly said: "The king still remembers, when we saw the Wu caravan in Qili Township, which was robbed by Yu Poison?" This Wu family is one of the largest merchants in Shu. ”

Liu Ping suddenly remembered that when he first saw Fan Xian, he was preparing to be too poisonous, when there was a caravan in front of him that was robbed by Yu Poison, and it seemed that Liu Zhang's subordinate Zhonglang ran Wu Yi's family.

"That's great, I have a batch of salt here, you go to Shu to contact the Wu family for me, exchange it for grain and transport it back to me, and then I will be indispensable for your benefits."

"The king wants to buy and sell salt?" Fan Xian was so frightened that he stuck out his tongue, the sale of smuggled salt was to kill his head, even if it was a troubled time now, but the nominal Han court was still there.

Fan Xian is a businessman in the world, and he does legitimate business, and he doesn't even dare to think about the sale of salt.

How did he know that as soon as Liu Ping opened his mouth, he asked him to sell smuggled salt, Fan Xian subconsciously retreated.

"What? As the chief farmer of the imperial court, this king guards the customs for the imperial court, and selling salt is also collecting money for the imperial court, isn't it okay? Liu Ping raised his eyebrows and glared at Fan Xian, looking confident.

"That's right!"

Fan Xian suddenly patted his head, the person in front of him was not only the King of Qin who was sealed by the Han family, but also the chief Sinong of the imperial court who was in charge of finance.

"What the king said is extremely true, a few days ago, I heard that the salt-producing land of Bashu collapsed from the mountain flood in Zigong, and the salt well was washed away, which led to the sharp rise in the price of salt in Shu.

"Tsk," Liu Ping smashed his mouth, he didn't know if it was providence, but he knew that the salt area of Shu Land was indeed in Zigong in the south.

If the salt wells in Zigong were washed away by floods, the price of salt in Shu would inevitably skyrocket, and it was impossible to say that he should have made a fortune.

"Hurry up and get in touch," Liu Ping ordered, and then said, "By the way, I'll write you a warrant." ”

He immediately wrote a letter of introduction to Fan Xian in the name of the imperial court and the Qin Palace, and picked out two of the various official seals and stamped them.

Speaking of which, there are now more than a dozen official seals representing Liu Ping's identity.

This stamped warrant represents that Fan Xian is selling salt on behalf of Dasi Nong, that is, the imperial court, and he is selling official salt, not private salt.

Fan Xian was overjoyed, but he didn't expect that he would become an imperial businessman who collected money for the country.
