Li Ang has a small mouthful, and occasionally comes to say: There is a girl named Xiaofang in the village, who is good-looking and kind, with beautiful big eyes and thick and long braids......

Every time Francis listened, he felt a chill.

Leon likes to tease him, I'll keep you silent is golden, I'll make you can't let out a fart for a long time...

"Everything should be done gradually, and it is not appropriate to rush to buy more abandoned wells because the problem of the existing six salt wells has not been solved." Francis insisted.

Li Ang didn't argue with him, patted the mud on his hands, turned around and got on his horse and went straight to the six salt wells of the Fang family. He thought that the salt well must be crowded with people, and it was a hot scene. However, when I got to see it, I was surprised.

The six salt wells of the Fang family are distributed within a radius of one mile, each well is separated by hundreds of meters, each salt well has six or seven people, and there is no village outline around, these people are like lonely ghosts;

A few thatched houses, a few large iron pots. The people in Inoue are not all strong men, some are members of a family at all, there are men and women, old and young, and the half-grown children still have snot sticky on their faces.

When the salt workers on the well heard that the owner was coming, they stood in a row by the well. Tall and short, the old and the young stood in the front row, this was probably the most solemn welcoming ceremony they could pose.

"This ...... Just them? Seeing these shrimp soldiers and crab generals, Li Ang's heart was half cold.

Fang Daniu explained: "There are not so many people in the well, the main thing is that the people who extract the brine are harder, after boiling out the salt, temporarily store it for a few days, and the shops in the city will send cars to pull it away, these old people and children are mainly responsible for adding firewood and watching the fire, but they are not wrong, they work less, and they can save some costs." ”

Li Ang smiled when he heard this, and no longer cared about these things, "gathering the hearts of the people", he had his own Franciscan to do it, and Li Ang looked east and west by the salt well.

Fang Dayong is the son of Fang Laogen, the old housekeeper of the Fang family, and he is very experienced in all aspects of salt production and sales, he followed Li Ang and introduced: "These six salt wells are the best salt wells in the area of Mantis Pass, in order to maintain these six salt wells, the former old proprietor sold a mountain forest forty miles upstream of the Baizhu River, and the firewood needed for the six salt wells at present is all by cutting down the mountain forest, and then letting the firewood float down the river, but the mountain forest can't last long." ”

Li Ang saw that there was indeed not much firewood piled up at the side of the well, and there was wood at the mouth of the well with a tripod, and there was a thick rope leading directly to the bottom of the well, which was used to carry brine. There are six large iron pots on the side, and the fire under the pot is raging, and the brine in the pot is boiling and steaming.

The equipment is very simple, there is nothing worth seeing, and the key is to solve the fuel required to boil salt.

"Let's go, let's take a look around."

Li Ang got back on the horse, took Fang Dayong, and after inspecting all the six wells, he walked around the mountains again.

"Is there coal around here?"

"Coal? What coal? ”

"It's a black, stone-like thing."

"Oh, not really."

There is no coal, no natural gas, and it is ....... to make a biogas digester by collecting human and animal manure, which is used to light the lamp, and the biogas digester is used to boil salt, just kidding.

Lunch is served on the salt well. When the owner arrived, Shiojing finally made a good meal, white rice, a little braised pork, and a plate of wild vegetables. Leon and Francis shared a table, and the others ate separately.

Leon flipped through the plate of braised pork with his chopsticks, the black paste made people have no appetite, he picked up a piece and threw it to Tinker Bell, but Tinker Bell sniffed it, then turned around and walked away.

"Tinker Bell, you have to eat this, if you don't eat it, you can ask for more blessings."

Francis finally couldn't help it and erupted: "You said there was a way, but what about the way?!" Obviously, Li Ang didn't do his job properly along the way, and he was very annoyed when he got to the ground.

"Xiao Fang, you must know that I am here to solve the problem, not to beg for food. You don't have anything good to entertain, and you still want to be angry at me? Save it. ”

"You ......"

"What are you? Asked you to buy the nearby salt well, did you listen to me? I want absolute trust, you know? When Shang Yang changed the law, no matter how excessive his demands were, Qin Mugong was always responsive, rely on! Lao Tzu's first request was rejected by you, no, this metaphor is not right, damn it, Lao Tzu is not your subordinate. You listen to me, what Lao Tzu says in the future, whether you are reluctant or not, you will do it for Lao Tzu! If you can't do this, let's break up today, your father's revenge is my business! ”

Li Ang has always been happy, and no one expected him to suddenly burst into such a big fire. Fang Ji's face was full of astonishment, Fang Dayong and Fang Da Niu hurriedly came over to persuade peace, and the salt workers on the well exchanged their heads and whispered.

Fang Ji's face turned blue with anger, it was Li Ang who took the initiative to ask Xiaoqiu to find him. He was reluctant to take over the management of these six salt wells before he came, and it was Li Ang who said that there was a way, so he took over this mess. Now that he was in Inoue, Li Ang was obviously helpless, so he deliberately made an excuse to leave.

"Okay, so-and-so will buy the dozen or so abandoned wells, and you can quickly come up with a way for so-and-so." It was probably the day that Francis spoke the most.

"You don't need to buy it, Lao Tzu will buy it himself, let's see."

After Li Ang finished speaking, he was about to get up and leave, Fang Da Niu and Fang Da grabbed him with one arm and dragged him tightly, "Li Langjun, don't be angry, we can discuss something, if you have a way, tell us, I will ask Xiao Langjun to apologize to you." ”

"Yes, yes! Li Langjun, there is something to say, there is something to say, why bother to be angry, let's sit down and say..."

"This matter is not negotiable, the snake is not headless, no matter what you do, you must first establish a person who speaks, or you listen to me obediently, or we will do our own thing."

Li Ang has his own principles, and what he wants to do is Cao Mengde, not Zhuge Liang. Whether Lao Tzu's words are right or wrong, you have to listen to me first, and no matter how big the mistake is, I will be responsible.

At this time, the two sides had a very stiff quarrel, and under the persuasion of Fang Da Niu and Fang Da Yong, although Li Ang did not leave immediately, he and Fang Ji went in and out one by one, ignoring each other.

Taking advantage of the fact that Li Ang took Tinker Bell and Fang Da Niu to hunt, Fang Dayong privately persuaded Fang Ji: "Xiao Langjun, I can feel that Li Ang is a person with real skills. I still remember what he said to you on the road, when you are at a low point in your life, move forward bravely, because no matter how you go, it is up.

The current situation couldn't be worse, Xiao Langjun could only give up the Fang family's industry in addition to letting go. Look at the posture of your second and third uncles, they simply want to expel you from the Fang family and hurry up. To put it mildly, the death of the old proprietor, I don't know who did it, if ...... They really did it, will they let you go?

Leon was a smart man, and the fact that he dared to buy those abandoned wells himself showed that he must be sure that he would turn waste into treasure. Why don't Xiao Langjun take a step back and see what he does. ”

"How to return? Let someone give up the management rights of the Fang family? ”

"Xiao Langjun, you ...... You think, even if Leon has the ability, he is just a person after all. When the salt output comes, not everything will be fine, and a huge sales network is needed to turn salt into money, which is in the hands of our Fang family. Let's just listen to him first, and see if he has a way to save the salt well, if he really wants to save it, then divide the authority and take care of each one, it's okay. ”

Francis was silent for a long time before nodding.

"That's good, when Li Ang comes back, Xiao Langjun will apologize to him first and calm him down."

Li Ang took Tinker Bell and Fang Da Niu for more than an hour, but he didn't even find a hare, but he hunted a few fish in the Baizhu River.

It's your business to compete and stand hard work, and Li Ang made a delicious fish soup with his own hands and ate it beautifully. Francis hesitated for a long time before coming over to apologize to him.

Just keep your head down, what Li Ang wants is this dominance.

He didn't speak that night, he borrowed money from Fang Ji first, and asked Fang Da to buy those abandoned salt wells the next day, which immediately caused a sensation in Huojing County. It's not that it's a big deal to buy the waste salt wells, on the contrary, it's very cheap.

The main reason is that most people think that the Tang Dynasty has such a genius and fool, and it is rumored to be a joke after tea and dinner for a while. Li Ang's stupid name quickly spread to women and children in Huojing County.

Of course, there are also some people out of curiosity, does this Leon really have a way to bring those abandoned salt wells back to life? .
