Chapter 129: Clues to the Past
"I'm recuperating during this time, and I can't wander around the palace anyway... You arrange for me! Get out of the palace for a few days and give me a vacation!" Lu Qian asked Gao Weixin, who was facing him.
Gao Weixin saw that Lu Qian had made this request, and he took a long breath and said, "Yes! No problem! I can arrange for you to go."
"So refreshing? I need to go out in the name of justice..."Lu Qian was also a little surprised by Gao Weixin's cheerfulness.
Gao Weixin smiled faintly and said, "Of course, I will let His Majesty order you out!"
"Tall! It's so refreshing!"
Lu Qian saw that Gao Weixin was refreshed, and he didn't have ink.
"Actually, this is a normal situation in the salt refinery! At present, the Kyoto Salt Refinery sells salt exclusively to merchants. The merchant had to transport the salt out and sell it. After all, a process is needed, and the group of buyers of fine salt is the rich people of Great Xia, and this batch of fine salt is enough for them to consume for a while! So, there is always an off-season and a peak season, and it would be good to wait until the off-season is over."
"Father-in-law Lu, I don't want you to analyze! I know what you're talking about. What I want is a solution! Your solution isn't going to be to make me wait for the peak season, is it? If this is your solution, I am afraid that Your Majesty may not agree to let you out of the palace."
Gao Weixin replied coldly.
Obviously, he was not satisfied with Lu Qian's answer.
"It's actually very simple to solve this problem. There are two ways, one of which is to form a caravan and directly sell the fine salt to the Great Zhou, Beiliang, and even the Western Regions! You know, because the salt affairs are coordinated by the state, our merchants in Daxia do not dare to go out to sell it. But it's not the same from country to country!"
Gao Weixin shook his head and said, "What you said is indeed a solution, but there are a lot of risks and uncertainties involved... Forming a caravan, and it is a cross-border salt trade, involves a lot of things, it is too cumbersome, and it will take at least a year to wait until everything is ready, which is too long. And second?"
"Second, it's easy! Directly find a chamber of commerce, let's buy the salt produced by the salt refinery for a year at a price of one hundred taels per stone! All domestic and foreign sales are fully entrusted! Let's just collect the money, so tall man, you just have to collect the money!" Lu Qian said.
"So much price reduction?"
Lu Qian smiled and said, "Lord Gao, don't you understand this account? Buying a year's output is even at this price. I'm going to make a lot more money than I make now!"
Gao Weixin was silent for a moment and said, "This is indeed a solution... But who should this chamber of commerce go to? The amount of salt produced in a year is a huge amount of money, and I am afraid that no one will dare to take the order in the entire Great Xia. Even if someone dares to take it, His Majesty will also be afraid of the identity of the boss of the Chamber of Commerce, after all, if the salt affairs are co-ordinated by a private person, if it is unreliable, it will also be a great disaster for the country!"
"What if this man is Hosun?" Lu Qian said to Gao Weixin.
Gao Weixin looked at Lu Qian, his eyes lit up a little, and said, "Little Twelfth Master, he is indeed a candidate. But does he have the means?"
Lu Qian smiled faintly at Gao Weixin and said, "Of course, if you believe this person, then the payment method can also be in the form of monthly settlement."
Gao Weixin nodded again and again when he saw this.
But he soon realized something, and said to Lu Qian, "Grandpa Lu, what is the relationship between you and the little twelfth master?"
"He calls me Brother Lu, and I also call him a relationship with my brother." Lu Qian did not hide it.
After all, if Gao Weixin wants to check these news, he can still find it every minute.
Gao Weixin was surprised again!
"How did you and Little Twelfth Master meet?"
Lu Qian smiled and said, "This non-labor-tall man is worried. You'd better go and tell Your Majesty about this first."
...
That same evening.
Listening to Zhang Leopard, Concubine Li has returned to the Night Palace.
Lu Qian took advantage of the late night to pretend to be a forbidden soldier and went directly.
The Palace of the Night is one of the northernmost palaces in the Imperial City.
The roadside was overgrown with weeds, and the vermilion palace walls were covered with creepers.
Desolate.
Arrived at the Night Palace
Zhang Bao asked the two of them to go directly to rest.
He's here to keep watch.
Although the two of them were puzzled, they left without saying a word.
Lu Qian swaggered in.
The Night Palace is much bigger than the Meditation Garden.
Directly facing the palace gate is a large hall.
There are two transepts on one side.
In the palace, flickering candles are lit inside.
Lu Qian pushed open the door of the main hall.
I heard a sound of frolicking coming from the house.
After walking over.
Fluttershy is dressed in a silk gown, waiting for Concubine Li to take a bath.
Lu Qian looks at Fluttershy's outfit and dreams back to the way she just crossed over.
Lu Qian coughed lightly.
The sudden noise scared the two of them enough.
"It's me!"
Fluttershy crept out.
After seeing that it was Lu Qian, he subconsciously covered it with his hand.
With a somewhat coquettish face, he said, "Little Qianzi? Why are you here?"
"I heard that Yuli is out of the palace, so I can't come and see it."
Yuli heard that it was Lu Qian who came in, and he didn't care about dressing.
Coming out of the bathtub, he ran towards Lu Qian in a few steps.
hugged him, full of tender concern, "Lu Qian, are you okay... I heard that you were beaten by the queen for a hundred in order to save me! Why don't you recuperate! And come out to see me! I'm fine! You need to recuperate well if you are injured, or you will be left with the root of the disease!"
Lu Qian saw what he was looking at.
I couldn't help swallowing my saliva, and subconsciously put a hand around her waist and said.
"I'm fine..."
Yuli didn't believe it, "How can it be okay.."
"If you don't believe it, you check..."
Lu Qian said that he was not polite, and took off his clothes.
After Yu Li confirmed it repeatedly, he said in some disbelief, "What the hell is going on..."
Lu Qian said succinctly.
As he spoke, he smiled evilly at Concubine Li...
After hearing this, Yu Li seemed to think of something, and asked Lu Qian with a straight face
"Lu Qian, don't make trouble... I have something to tell you!"
Lu Qian looked at Yu Li's straight face, and also put away a playful smile, and said with a slight stunned, "What's the matter? So serious?"
"Don't you want to know your past?" Yu Li said with a straight face.
"I didn't ask you back then. Didn't you say you didn't know?" Lu Qian also said with interest at this time.
"I really didn't know before. However, this time in the prison, I met a lot of strange people and strange things! It seems to have something to do with you!" Yu Li said with a serious face.
