Chapter 56: Down to the Kitchen

Dai Menghe is the protector of Yuqiang Prefecture in the Western Regions, and Yuqiang Prefecture and Liangzhou face each other across the border line of the two countries, almost next to each other.

The Metropolitan Protector is the highest local administrator, responsible for protecting the territory and ensuring the orderly development of the local economy, and ensuring that there are no internal worries and no external disturbances.

Everyone knows that the Western Regions are closed to the rest of the country and rarely have good relations with foreign countries, but they don't know that someone has found a breakthrough.

This person is Si Yan.

The Western Regions and the Great Zou Kingdom are very different in terms of climate and soil, which also leads to a great difference in the crops planted, and there is an inland river in the Western Regions, and gems are abundant along the river.

Whether it is a rare vegetable and fruit, or a gem that people can't take their eyes off at a glance, they all have huge sales potential in the market of Dazou.

Si Yan entered the camp at the age of ten, and at a young age, he had a vicious eye, and he saw that this matter was profitable at a glance

He reported it to the emperor at the time, and then, with Zou Yuan's tacit approval, set up a small caravan to resell goods near the border.

Later, after the business model was formed, Zou Yuan secretly opened up, and gradually introduced the business into Zou Guo.

Speaking of which, the hot Shu brocade sold in the capital today was introduced by their caravan.

But in fact, making money is not the main purpose, the emperor who has no foundation needs to consolidate his position, and there are no permanent friends between countries, but there are eternal interests.

This time, Dai Menghe came to discuss the specific matters of the trade routes between the two countries.

After this step was taken, Zou Yuan was tantamount to an extra hope of victory in the game with the Queen Mother, which increased his weight.

Back then, Zou Yuan just looked at Si Yan pitifully and pointed him out a clear way, at that time he would never have thought that Si Yan would bring him such a great help.

Si Yan re-aligned with Dai Menghe what he had discussed with the emperor before.

In addition, Si Yan also took out an envelope, which contained the customs clearance documents needed by the entire caravan, as well as a pre-made road map.

Although Dai Menghe had cooperated with Si Yan for a long time and knew that he was clean and neat, he still couldn't help but marvel at this time.

"General Si can rest assured, the saint has a courtier like you, it is really like a tiger with wings."

Si Yan: "Don't dare to be, it's just the duty of a courtier." ”

……

Si Yan was still discussing national affairs here, and Shen Li was also busy on his side.

This is not just talking, it is really a fire!

Smoke billowed from the kitchen, almost blackening people, and sparks were constantly rising from the stove.

Shen Li's 10,000-mile long march is stuck in the first step: making a fire.

"Ahem, miss, did we make a mistake?"

Shen Li raised his hand and wiped the sweat on his face, looking puzzled.

"It shouldn't be, I remember it's just a layer of wood and a layer of grass, why can't I light it."

To be honest, Shen Li's cooking skills are really good, she was still working and studying in a restaurant, if she hadn't been discovered by talent scouts and entered the entertainment industry, she might really be able to become a chef.

However, she used to use a gas stove, and she had never seen such a stove before.

The cook in the house saw the black smoke here and hurried over.

Yao Caifeng was carrying a bucket of water, thinking that it was on fire somewhere, but who knew that when she got closer, it was the new lady who had just passed the door yesterday.

She was stunned.

"Big lady, why are you here?"

Shen Li looked embarrassed.

"I... I want to make something, why can't I light it. ”

Yao Caifeng was surprised in her heart, Rao was that she had lived for so many years, and she had never seen a newlywed woman go to the kitchen on the second day of her wedding.
