"Miss Yuyan, has Lian'er come back?"

In the room, Lu An leaned weakly on the head of the bed and asked softly.

Lu Yuyan shook her head, "An Shao, Lian'er has been with the concubine for a long time, and it will be fine, as long as you take care of your body, it is better than anything else." ”

Lu An frowned when he heard this, "No, according to the time, Lian'er should have come back a long time ago?"

Even if the procurement is not effective, it should be sent back, right? ”

After speaking, Lu An propped himself up and got out of bed, picked up his robe and put it on his body, "Ah Da, come with me to catch up with Baqu to have a look." ”

Seeing this, Lu Yuyan hurriedly stopped in front of Lu An, "An Shao, Lian'er is just a maid by my side, even if something happens to her, it's not worth your risk."

If you're not at ease, let the concubine take someone over to have a look. ”

Lu An shook his head and said, "No, I'm not worried about Lian'er, I'm more worried about the purchase of saltpeter."

In addition, here in Jingyue Xuan, I don't feel at ease if I hand it over to anyone except you.

Miss Yuyan, you just need to remember that from today onwards, stop buying all white sea sand!

Hehe!

The Chen family thought that I would have no choice if I left the white sea sand in Linjiang, right?

At least, our current stock of white sea sand is enough for two or three months!

When I buy the saltpeter back, I'll be able to turn the tide in no time! ”

The kind words appeased Lu Yuyan, and Lu An took Ah Da and other twenty-nine dead soldiers, rode fast horses, and went straight to Baqu County.

After Lu An left, Jingyue Xuan fell into a panic.

Almost everyone knew about the fact that Bai Haisha was controlled by the Chen family.

Without the subsequent supply of white sea sand, will the firing of glassware still be as smooth as before?

Nobody knows.

Most people were in a daze.

Fortunately, Lu Yuyan was still calm, tried her best to keep her composure, and continued to preside over the firing process of the entire Jingyuexuan glassware.

It's just that more and more people are gradually discovering that the consumption of white sea sand stored in Jingyue Xuan is much slower than before.

The news also quickly spread to the Chen family in Yangzhou.

In fact, it is not difficult to investigate this trend.

After all, the place where Jingyue Xuan stored the white sea sand was in the open area near the lake, and it was easy for outsiders to see.

This phenomenon not only made the Plains Chen family happy, but also made more ordinary people who originally relied on transporting white sea sand to Jingyue Xuan fall into despair.

A good way to make money is gone, and no one will feel good.

However, some ordinary people who rely on this financial route to live can't wait for death, right?

They knew that without the white sea sand, Jingyue Xuan's glassware would not be able to continue firing, and one day, Jingyue Xuan would definitely ask the Plains Chen for help.

Therefore, some people's minds became lively again, and they ran to Linjiang, the white sea sand beach controlled by the Chen family, and begged for a hard labor in mining sea sand.

Although the money you make in this way is not as much as mining sand by yourself, at least you don't go hungry.

And the Chen family is also rare to be generous, but if there are people who are willing to come to work, the Chen family will accept it.

In just a few days, the amount of white sea sand in the Linjiang area has increased significantly, and the Chen family has built a huge sand field near the beach for this purpose.

All of this is developing in the direction expected by the Plains Chen family, just waiting for one day Lu An can't hold on and takes the initiative to go to Yangzhou to ask the Chen family for help.

On the other hand, Lu An put aside the matter of Bai Haisha, and rushed to Baqu County with people in a hurry to inquire about Lian'er's news.

Seeing that it is about to enter the midsummer season, Lu An has identified the financial road of saltpeter ice making, and he must have a lot to do.

Two days later, just as Lu An was about to enter Baqu County, Ah Da, who was exploring the way ahead, reported back.

"An Shao, my subordinates have already found out the whereabouts of Miss Lian'er."

As soon as he said this, Ah Da's voice weakened, "Miss Lian'er has been detained in the mansion by Liu Dalong, a wealthy family in Baqu County, for more than five days, and all the caravans she brought with her have also been placed under house arrest by Liu Dalong's people in Liu Dalong's saltpeter mining area......"

"Liu Dalong? Is it the largest saltpeter mine owner in Baqu County? ”

"Yes."

Lu An frowned and asked, "Miss Lian'er brought nearly a hundred people over, but none of them escaped, it seems that Liu Dalong has a lot of power in Baqu County, right?"

Ah Da, if the twenty-nine of you go all out, are you sure that you will rescue Lian'er and them? ”

"An Shao has a life, and his subordinates naturally go all out, and his subordinates are confident that they can rescue Miss Lian'er.

It's just ......"

Speaking of this, Ah Da hesitated, "The subordinates are the dead soldiers around An Shao, and they can fight with their lives at any time."

According to the situation found by his subordinates, even if Miss Lian'er is rescued, I am afraid that our brothers will at least lose most of ......."

When Lu An heard this, he immediately dispelled the idea of attacking, "Ah Da, didn't you say that Uncle Chu is the lord of Jiangnan?"

Could it be that a small merchant in Baqu County still dares not to give Uncle Chu face? ”

Ah Da shook his head, "An Shao doesn't know, Lord Chu does control the entire Jiangnan region.

It's just that the power of the king in the states and counties south of the Yangtze River is intertwined.

For example, Liu Dalong, the owner of the saltpeter mine here, married the Lu family of Qinghe four years ago and married his sister to the second young master of the Lu family. ”

"Qinghe Lu Clan?" When Lu An heard this, he instantly realized.

"Ah Er, you go back immediately and bring all the five hundred soldiers sent to me by Uncle Chu to Baqu County!"

"Yes!"

Ah Er turned around and galloped away.

"Let's go, let's go to the city, and wait for Ah Er to bring someone over!"

Lu An let out a deep sigh and rode his horse to the county seat of Baqu first.

"Ah Da, take this to the county guard's mansion and let the county guard come to the inn!"

Lu An threw out the gold medal that Chu Yin had given him, and took the rest of the people into the largest local inn to rest.

A quarter of an hour later, the streets were filled with the sound of commotion.

Lu An, who had changed his clothes, sat down by the window on the second floor, looked down, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, "Anyway, the brand that Uncle Chu gave me seems to be really effective." ”

Knock Knock Knock –

Ah Da hurriedly went up to the second floor with the Taishou of Baqu County and came to Lu An.

"Xiaguan Baqu County guards Zhou Yun and has seen Lu Gongzi."

Zhou Yun was in her forties, dressed as a scribe, perhaps because of the hot weather, and when she arrived in front of Lu An, she kept wiping the sweat from her forehead.

Lu An got up and greeted with a smile, "Lord Zhou, Lu is just a grass man, why is Lord Zhou so gifted?" Hurry up, please take a seat. ”

"The lower officials don't dare."

Zhou Yun looked up at the young Lu An, and muttered in her heart.

Of course he recognized the token that Adana gave him.

It's just that, like Yin Fenggu of Yangzhou Mansion, he has never seen it, and Chu Yin gave that token to anyone.

And the son of Lu An in front of him holds this token, but if he has a little brain, he doesn't dare to really treat Lu An as an ordinary person!

Seeing that Zhou Yun insisted on not sitting, Lu An was no longer reluctant, and said indifferently, "Lord Zhou, there are more than 100 people sent by Lu to come to Baqu County to do some small business, but they were unreasonably detained in broad daylight, so it seems that Baqu County under the rule of Lord Zhou is not peaceful, right?" ”
