Lian Po was stunned.

However, it is written in Bai Tan's document that the Qin general begged for the deer in vain, confiscated the copper bar, and left without saying a word. In the afternoon of the same day, the Qin army gathered and camped at the border.

Lian Po immediately asked, "So, what's going on with this camp?" ”

"Pottery, and maybe porcelain. Tens of thousands of miners had to eat, and there was not enough money and food to feed them. Now that the deer is gone, it's useless to be angry. I have already sent someone to write a letter to Donghu, and the Donghu envoy promised to find ten more giant deer and send them over. ”

After Bai Ping finished speaking, he suddenly turned his face to the other side and shouted: "Over there, what are you doing?" ”

Bai Ping's roar immediately made the slaves of the Chen Kingdom and the Japanese slaves in the camp cheer up a little.

Bai Hui could see clearly that Bai Ping's level of opening his eyes and talking nonsense was not good.

Just now, it was obvious that his expression was not quite right, so he shouted this voice under the pretext.

Lian Po didn't see Bai Ping's abnormality at all, his eyes and thoughts were on this camp.

I have to admit that the Qin army is very clever in the layout of the camp, even if it is just a slave camp, there is no real Qin army guard, but the Zhao army can really enter, Lian Po knows very well that he will definitely fill in at least 5,000 men and horses before he can get close to the camp.

"Come, prepare a feast. Ben will wash the dust of General Lian Po. ”

After Bai Hui gave the order, someone immediately went to do it.

In fact, Bai Hui is also tired, and after such a few days of driving, anyone will be too tired.

The banquet was only small-scale, and after several large bowls of spirits were poured into Lian Po, Lian Po was carried back to rest.

The next day, Bai Hui slept until noon and woke up.

When Bai Hui woke up, Bai Ping was already waiting outside the tent.

"Second general, General Lian Po hasn't woken up yet."

"Good." Bai Hui nodded with satisfaction, and was about to order today's plan, but Bai Ping asked: "Second General, I don't understand why all this is why, spending such a big price, just for that bit of fire and soil, I believe that in our territory, we will definitely be able to find fire and soil." ”

Bai Hui waved his finger at Bai Ping: "You, I don't understand." ”

Bai Hui didn't explain this to Bai Ping, at least now is not the time to explain.

Bai Qi understood this plan.

Bai Hui is to make the upright Lian Po and the delicate Zhao Hao have a rift, everything Bai Hui does must prove that Lian Po's trust in himself is not wrong.

And Zhao Hao doubted himself more and more.

Since Bai Hui didn't explain, Bai Ping wouldn't ask again.

It was almost afternoon when Lian Po woke up.

I have been on the road for so many days in a row, and it is still a mountain road, and it is a road damaged by heavy rain. Coupled with last night's liquor, it makes sense for Lian Po to sleep until the afternoon.

Bai Hui invited Lian Po to have a simple lunch, and then took Lian Po to the pottery furnace area.

Since Bai Ping set up camp here, in just eleven days, more than 50 caves have been dug here, and all of them have been transformed into pottery furnaces, of which ten furnaces have been completely completed, and half of them have begun to burn pottery for the first time.

Why pottery and not porcelain.

Porcelain requires a certain level of skill, relying only on the potters of the Japanese slaves and Chennu, they can't burn it, and after the simple training of these slave workers, the pottery can still be burned.

Porcelain requires real craftsmen of the Qin State to fire.

Standing in front of the furnace, Bai Hui said to Lian Po: "General Lian Po, if you say that the Qin State and the Zhao State will never fight, I dare not say this, and you will not believe it." If our king says that there is a war, it is okay to dissuade him, but he can't stop it. ”

"Yes, that's what Ogawa-kun said." Lian Po fully believed Bai Hui's words.

Bai Hui continued: "General Lian Po, look at this furnace. Not to mention anything else, Shangdang County and Hedong County. If there is a large-scale production of pottery, then the price will be reduced by at least 30%. Think about it, with the money that used to buy three bowls, you can now buy four, and the life of ordinary people will definitely be better. ”

"That's right." Lian Po understands that when the price is low, the money is worth it.

What's more, barter is still traded in many places at the moment.

"General Lian Po, I, Bai Hui, don't like to fight. Fighting a war costs people and money, but they have to fight, and if they don't fight, they can't protect the women and children in the family, and if they don't fight, they don't fight the slaves who come. So let's not mention the war today, Zhao Guo suspects that I Bai Hui wants to fight, let's talk about not fighting today. ”

Bai Hui almost stunned Lian Po.

It took Lian Po a long time to come back to his senses.

Without waiting for Lian Po to ask, Bai Hui said again: "I have a proposal, General Lian Po might as well consider one or two." ”

"Ogawa-kun, please speak."

Bai Hui pointed to the pottery furnace, and then said: "It's better to be like this, let's not draw a boundary in this pottery furnace area." I opened up so that the Zhao people could come to work, and then I thought that if there was good soil over there, they could also open mines together, although the soil was not worth much, but the labor was to pay. ”

Lian Po's eyes lit up: "Really? ”

"Seriously, trust me. I have calculated that to build 200 pottery furnaces in this area alone, 800 people will be needed for the pottery workers alone, no less than 200 painters and painters, 2,000 people for medium and small workers, and 1,800 people will be needed to eat, drink, and clean up the garbage. ”

"Yes, yes." Although Lian Po didn't understand this, he could see that it was busy.

"Also, those who carry and carry also need manpower. A large number of manpower is also required to transport and clean ores and soil. This is about the livelihood of 30,000 people, to say the least. ”

Lian Po nodded violently, and what Bai Hui said was not bad at all.

Bai Hui continued: "Why was Taoyi rich in the world back then, because Taoyi is known as a thousand-eyed pottery furnace, which is related to the livelihood of 100,000 people to eat. ”

"Yes, yes, yes. That's right. Lian Po admired it in his heart.

Bai Hui pointed to the pottery furnace: "From here to the party is a road in the valley, and after repair, two carts can walk side by side. And from here to Handan, a horse Pingchuan. To put it bluntly, the biggest sales channel for the pottery and semi-porcelain produced here is still going to Handan. ”

"General Lian Po, you said that I should let Bai Hui earn this money alone, is it appropriate? Let's earn it together, and earn a profit for the people of Zhao State, not much to say, just here in Yiyi, I will protect the livelihood of 15,000 people in Zhao, if the annual income is less than double as before, I will make up for it Baihui. ”

"Dahejun ......" Lian Po was moved, only his eyes were fluttering.

Bai Hui is indeed real enough, saying that if he doesn't fight, he won't fight, this time it was Zhao Hao and Le Yi who misunderstood.

Lian Po has already made a decision in his heart that he will have a good talk with Zhao Hao after he goes back.
