.lā What else is more important than these glass vessels," Guo Ye asked puzzled.

Chai Lingwen said: "Qin Guogong, I think I heard you say that this time it was Zhang Liang, the Duke of Xunguo, and Li Quan, the patriarch of the Li clan in Longxi, who came to give you a war letter, saying that they would use cheap glass utensils to attack our Changle Fang Daqian Village. ”

"Yes, it does."

"Don't you think it's strange that Zhang Liang, the Duke of Xunguo, has always been in charge of bad people for His Majesty, and is used to calculating others in secret. Why did he make such a big fuss this time, and took the initiative to invite him to quietly prepare a large number of glazed vessels, wouldn't it be better to launch a surprise attack on us when the time comes?"

"Well, I think it's the Five Great Scholars, and I confiscated a large number of cheap glass utensils, and I was angry and angry, so I did an irrational act. What does Brother Chai think?"

But the foolish brother didn't think so. will not raise troops out of anger, if Zhang Liang doesn't even understand this truth, how can His Majesty hand over bad people to him for so many years, and then talk about it, this time is not right"

Chai Lingwen paused for a moment and continued: "The time when he came to the door, more than a month has passed since the time His Majesty issued the order. It's been so long, and it's not enough for him to come to his senses."

Of course, Guo Ye can defend himself, and after His Majesty Li Er made a decree to confiscate the glazed vessels, he approved the resignations of Wei Zheng and Kong Yingda. For a time, the reputations of Guo Ye and His Majesty Li Er were stinking on the street.

When Zhang Liang saw this situation, he would definitely be so happy to watch the joke on the side, how could he be so angry that later, when the dust settled, he saw that the glazed utensils were gone, and Guo Ye also passed the test smoothly, so he was anxious.

But now is not the time to do a battle of words, Guo Ye also wanted to hear Chai Lingwen's opinion, and said, "Then what do you mean?"

"In my opinion, Zhang Liang's trick is called scaring the grass and the snake."

"How do you say this?"

"I think at the beginning, you used the strategy of delaying the army to delay the army for two years, and to this day, the effect of the strategy is still there. Zhang Liang is still afraid that after he has made a large number of glassware, you will come up with cheaper and better quality glassware. ”

Guo Ye understood as soon as he heard it, and said, "So, he deliberately wrote a war letter to me." Then send someone to closely monitor me, and according to my reflection, it is good to adjust the production plan, yes, your conjecture is probably more in line with the actual situation than mine. ”

That's what it means. If you don't move, then he doesn't say anything, he will mass-produce glass products. On the other hand, if you start a glass workshop right away, I'm afraid he will retract. ”

Liang Ershao said: "So, the question now is, whether our glass workshop should be kept secret." In other words, do we hope that the five great scholars will make a lot of glazed ware to compete with us, or do we hope that they will retreat in the face of difficulties?"

Guo Ye said: "There are a thousand days to be a thief, how can there be a thousand days to prevent thieves This time they retracted, maybe some moth came out." Of course, we have to take advantage of this opportunity to teach the five great warriors a hard lesson."

He sighed and said, "It's a pity that the production cost of our glassware is much higher than that of the Five Great Scholars. As soon as the war began, he wounded 800 enemies and lost 1,000 himself. If only we could delay it for a few months, wait for our costs to be lowered, and then start the war. ”

Chai Lingwen shook his head and said, "Qin Guogong, you are not enough to swallow an elephant." I want to make the five great scholars dare not rashly fight with us, and I want them to make glass boldly with confidence, isn't it a contradiction?"

Liang Ershao thought for a moment and said, "It's not completely impossible. This is the same as when we buy things and ask for good quality and low price, the key is how to grasp this degree. ”

Guo Ye said: "This problem, everyone will go back and think about it before making a decision." Now the top priority is to build a glass workshop without being discovered by Zhang Liang's people. As long as we do this, we will be invincible. The only difference is how much damage can be inflicted on the enemy. ”

Chai Lingwen said: "Leave this matter to me"

"Sure"

Chai Lingwen said proudly: "If I can't do such a thing, you can see what kind of face you have to take your shares."

"Then please Brother Chai."

Things have developed so far that the construction of the glass workshop is over. As for whether it can be delayed for a few more months, it is not so important to Guo Ye.

Changle Fang Daqian Zhuang has been developing for so many years, and its family foundation is thick, even if it starts to lose money and make money, it can fully support it.

As soon as Guo Ye's mood relaxed, his lust rose again, and he came to Yang Fengyi's small courtyard.

Since returning to Datang, on the one hand, everything is complicated, and on the other hand, in order to appease the original wife and two concubines in the original family, the progress of attacking Yang Fengyi has been completely stopped. Until now, the two have not been husband and wife.

As soon as Guo Ye entered the small courtyard, he heard a burst of laughter like silver bells. This voice was too familiar to him, it was the voice of Princess Shanhua.

Brother Guo flipped in his heart, and secretly thought, could it be that I didn't succeed in Yang Fengyi's strategy, she gave Princess Shanhua a strategy first.

When I opened the door, the two beauties were smiling like flowers and sitting together intimately.

Yang Fengyi was also stunned when she saw Guo Ye, and said, "Lord Husband, what kind of wind blew you here is really difficult for you, remember me." ”

Guo Ye said with a hippie smile: "Remember, how can you not remember But I haven't come to see you since I have been busy with official business recently, so I will apologize to you." ”

"I'm busy with official business, but Sister Shanhua didn't see you go less."

Princess Shanhua blushed and said, "Sister Feng Yi, what are you talking nonsense?"

"Sister Shanhua, don't be angry, I mean our husband is biased, but he didn't mean to target you."

Guo Ye knew that there was no way to argue about this issue, so he changed the topic and said, "What were you discussing just now, you were so happy"

Yang Fengyi glanced at him and said, "Our sisters, we are talking about some girls' whispers, husband, don't mix with me." ”

Princess Shanhua couldn't bear it when she saw that Guo Ye was blocked by Yang Fengyi and couldn't speak.

"It's not a private topic either," she says. As we mentioned earlier, it's the end of August, why are mosquitoes still so rampant, and if you are not careful, you will bite mosquitoes into several bags. Sister Feng Yi made fun of me and said that it was because I was so fragrant that even mosquitoes wanted to take a bite. ”

"Then how do you answer?"

"I said, if that's the case, Sister Feng Yi is more fragrant, won't she be eaten by mosquitoes."

What's so funny about this, a woman is a creature that is incomprehensible to men.

Guo Ye reluctantly laughed twice, and then said: "This is called the mosquito after the autumn is as fierce as a tiger, there is no good way, and you can only burn more wormwood."

Princess Shanhua frowned and said, "People can't get used to smelling that smell." Although there were mosquitoes in Silla, they were not as good as Chang'an's, and it was over after a while, but in Chang'an, this autumn was really sad. ”

"Then sprinkle some toilet water."

"What's that in the toilet water?"

Guo Ye then thought that in the Tang Dynasty, flower water did not exist. "Simply put," he explains, "it's about using spirits to extract the essence of the flowers. The fragrance is strong and can repel mosquitoes. ”

"Sounds really good, so let's try it. Husband, which shop sells this flower water in your mouth?"

"Well, this product is produced in the extreme west, and it seems that there is really no place to sell it in Datang."

Yang Fengyi rolled her eyes and said, "Talking for a long time is the same as not saying it."

Princess Shanhua knows more about Guo Ye than Yang Fengyi, she knows that her husband has a lot of wonderful ideas, all of which are presumed to be from the extreme west, and she doesn't know whether it's true or not.

She said: "Husband, do you know this method of making toilet water?"

How can a man say no in front of a woman Guo Ye slapped his swollen face and became fat, and said: "I can only say that I know a little bit about it." ”

"Then ask the husband to write down the recipe, and the concubine will try to do it."

Where did Guo Ye remember the recipe of the flower water, so he had to say something and shirked: "I'm afraid it won't work, just the spirits, our current wine can't meet the requirements." ”

Princess Shanhua said: "You don't have to do exactly the same thing as the Far West, it's almost enough." You might as well write it down. The concubine body is also boring, maybe it can really be made. ”

"Is this?"

Just when Guo Ye didn't know how to answer, a little maid ran in and said, "Qin Guogong, there is a guest asking to see."

"What a guest"

"She said she was your concubine who hadn't passed through the door yet."
