Article 726 Biting Jin reminded Qin Huaidao not to accept the prince of the county, Qin Huaidao nodded, looked at Cheng Biting Jin with a smile and said, "Uncle, I know, I also said it on my father's side today, and you also heard it." ”

"Hmm!" Cheng Yanjin sat there, nodded, and then seemed to be thinking about something.

"Uncle, what's wrong?" Qin Huaidao looked at Cheng Yanjin and asked.

"I'm wondering, why did Your Majesty propose to give you a reward at this time, it stands to reason that even if you really want to be rewarded, you should be pressed, and let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince reward him in the future,

Otherwise, how will His Royal Highness the Crown Prince win you over in the future, the so-called once a son of heaven and a courtier, the new emperor has just been established, and he needs to use a title or official position to win over the courtiers! At this time, His Majesty proposed to reward you, what is the purpose? Cheng Yanjin sat there and spoke.

"This?" Qin Huaidao really hadn't thought about this problem.

"If you say that you have a great contribution, it is indeed very great, but it is also okay to reward a prince, after all, the prince is the highest title that a courtier can obtain, if it is not enough, you can bring another title plus some rewards, there is no need to say, I want to give you the title of prince of the county." Cheng Yanjin stood up and walked in the study with his hands behind his back.

"This nephew doesn't know, he hasn't thought about it." Qin Huaidao really didn't think about this.

"The attitude is unclear, the holy will is unpredictable!" Cheng Yanjin shook his head and said.

"Uncle, can't you guess either?" Qin Huaidao looked at Cheng Yanjin and asked, after all, Cheng Yanjin has been with Li Shimin for most of his life.

"Your Majesty does things, many times, it is difficult for us to guess, but one thing is still good, there are no heroes, it is those heroes who have made actual mistakes before they are killed,

However, I don't dare to make such a conclusion now, after all, we old ministers are either the same age as him, or older than him, so Your Majesty will not worry about us, but you are the exception.

But what makes the old man incomprehensible is that since he wants to guard against you, why do he want you to come out as an official, as if you are not an official, and His Majesty is not happy, so for His Majesty's thoughts, the old man will be unable to guess for a while, but one thing is definitely right, that is, there is no big mistake in being careful. Cheng Yanjin looked at Qin Huaidao as he spoke, and Qin Huaidao nodded.

"My nephew thinks so too, so this time I will be awarded the title of prince of the county, and my nephew will not accept it." Qin Huaidao nodded, looked at Cheng Yanjin and said.

"In recent years, it's better for you to keep a low profile, don't do so many things, do it slowly, sometimes, there is too much credit, it may not be a good thing." Cheng Yanjin looked at Qin Huaidao and reminded him.

"Nephew understands!" Qin Huaidao said to Cheng Biting Jin.

"Okay, it's good to understand, you kid, you understand things early." Cheng Yanjin nodded with satisfaction and said,

Then Qin Huaidao sat here for a while, and then went to Wei Chi Jingde's mansion, and Wei Chi Jingde also reminded Qin Huaidao that he must not bear the county king, it was almost curfew, and Qin Huaidao returned to his mansion.

The next day, Qin Huaidao went to the Wei River, and when he went to the Wei River, Qin Huaidao was going to enter the lower Qinzhuang, and at this moment, there were many restaurants picking watermelons here, ready to be dragged to the city to sell.

"The master is here?" A farmer watched Qin Huaidao ride a horse to the farmland on Zhuangzi's side, and immediately came up from the melon field and waited for Qin Huaidao on the side of the road.

"Huh~" Qin Huaidao reined in his horse, turned over and dismounted.

"Master, why are you here? But is there a command? The strong man looked at Qin Huaidao and asked with a smile.

"Well, you go and inform the people of the three Zhuangzi and tell them that the cold melon, five catties per penny, unify this price, you can't mess up, you tell everyone, rest assured, this price can be sold, this is a tribute from the Western Regions, now we can grow it ourselves, we definitely need to sell it for money!" Qin Huaidao stood there and said to that person.

"Then, five catties for a penny, that one acre of land is a lot of money, this, I look here, an acre of land will not be less than five thousand catties, then it can be worth a lot of money?" The strong man looked at Qin Huaidao in surprise and asked.

"If you don't make money, why should I let you grow cold melons? Just go according to this price, just say what I said, I can't sell it, just come to find the master, and I will take it all according to this price! Qin Huaidao said to the strong man with a smile.

"Cheng, I'll go and inform you, master, wait a minute!" As he spoke, the strong man ran into the melon field and picked up two big ones.

"Master, you're going to the Weihe Workshop, take it, and you'll be thirsty to eat!" The strong man said to Qin Huaidao with a smile.

"Okay, if you have a heart, I won't pay, take it!" Qin Huaidao smiled and nodded.

"Master, look at what you said, if you give money, the little one will have no face to be!" The strong man was quite happy when he heard Qin Huaidao accept his watermelon.

"Well, remember to notify!" Qin Huaidao said to the strong man.

"I know, I'm worried about the old man." The strong man stood on the side of the road and bowed to Qin Huaidao, and Qin Huaidao had already turned over and left with those family soldiers and guards.

"Five catties for a penny, that's really a lot of money, but unfortunately, I planted five acres of land, child, you pick it first, I'm going to do what the master ordered." The strong man said happily.

"Go, remember to tell me, what the master commanded, there can't be a mistake!" A middle-aged woman in the distance was also smiling.

In the morning, there were cold melons sold in Chang'an City, and they cost five catties a penny.

"This is a cold melon from the Western Regions, our lord planted it, and ordinary people can't eat it, this is also the lord's kindness, let us plant it, otherwise how can we take it out and sell it?"

"Expensive, this is expensive, delicious, you taste it, don't you want your money if it's not delicious? Such a delicious melon? The tribute of the Western Regions, isn't it worth this money? ”

"Come two, become, the small one will weigh you!" ...

At noon, Qin Huaidao's side of the restaurant almost sold all the watermelons in the car, they used a small car, not a vehicle specially used by Qin Huaidao for transportation, but a car can also hold five or six hundred catties.

"Tut-tut, I have to get a batch to sell in the afternoon, I'll work hard for a while, and all of them will be sold!"

"You can sell it when you go back to the village, just now, there are many mansions, driving carriages, to our Zhuangzi, it's better to go back early, it is estimated that the family will still be busy!"

"Quick, hurry back!" ... The farmers in Qinzhuang all drove ox carts back to Zhuangzi, and as soon as they returned to Zhuangzi, they saw many horse-drawn carts waiting at the edge of the fields, and the people at home were also picking cold melons.

"Daddy, hurry up, this nobleman's house costs 2,000 pounds, hurry up and pick it!" The family members in the distance are also shouting to them,

And from today on, almost every day, there are a large number of horse-drawn carriages driving to Qinzhuang's side, buying watermelons, and the sales volume is huge every day.

Even Qin Huaidao's two uncles were happy, they had eaten watermelons in Qin Huaidao's mansion before, and knew that this was a good thing, the two old men, each planted ten acres of land, and they couldn't finish it, so they could only come back in the evening, and asked them to pick it overnight, put it away, and when it was dawn, someone would weigh it, and then sell it.

"Dad, it's almost, I look at this pile, how can there be more than 3,000 pounds!" Qin Rendao looked at his father and asked.

"What's enough, I sold it for more than six thousand catties today, go on!" Qin Yu also said to them seriously.

"Dad, we're hungry!" Qin Rendao said helplessly.

"Eat melons, pick small ones to eat. The big ones want to be sold, you hurry up, grinding, expecting you to do some work, it's so troublesome? Qin Jue said dissatisfiedly to them,

When he returned home, Qin Jue also ate several bowls of rice in a row.

"Dad, you have to make a lot of money this year, maybe six or seven yuan of money!" Qin Rendao looked at Qin Yu with a smile and asked.

"That is, I used to be in Licheng, I couldn't think about it, or the money in the capital is easy to make, not to mention anything else, just the chickens and ducks raised by your father and me, they have to earn me 1 yuan a year, which is enough for me and your mother's expenses." Qin Jue said very proudly, when they came to the capital, they made a lot of money, and now they all have savings in their hands, and there are a lot of them.

"By the way, tomorrow, pick some good melons and send them to Peping Mansion!" Qin Yu thought of this and said to a few of them.

"There is still a shortage of this in Peping's house, and he has planted it in his backyard!" Qin Rendao looked at his father helplessly and said.

"How much can he plant, you didn't see it, the other mansions, are all bought by car, there are many guests in the Peping Mansion, you don't know, send over, send two cars over, forget it, I don't expect you, I'll go to the cargo station to borrow a big car, send a big car over!" Qin Yu said and looked at them with displeasure.

"I'll send it, I'll send it, you always rest, rest!" Qin Hedao immediately shouted and said,

There's no way, now this old lady is also starting to have a temper, and he has to say things that he can't get used to, no matter whose business it is, in the village, there are people who are angry and have disputes, and he also goes to persuade him, but everyone is also giving him face,

Qin Yu is a very fair person, and he is Qin Huaidao's uncle, and he usually has nothing to send to his neighbors, so everyone respects him very much, of course, those restaurants in Qinzhuang don't dare to offend this old lady, he can directly enter the Qin Mansion, no need to report!

The next day, Qin Jue really drove the carriage to the Qin Mansion with the melon.

"Oh, my old lady, there is no shortage of this in the house, you can always take it easy!" When the housekeeper saw that it was Qin Yu coming, he immediately greeted him and said.

"It's okay, eat more, my grandchildren, you can eat more!" Qin Jue said happily, and then asked, "Is Peping in the mansion?" ”

"It's here, it's in the study!" The housekeeper immediately said, Qin Jue came over just now, but few people knew that he came in directly, so Qin Huaidao didn't know that his uncle was here at all.
