Chapter 44: Causes

Looking at the ugly people sleeping on the straw mat, Qian Yan couldn't help but roll her eyes.

She just thought that Ugly Ugly was very reliable this time, and she said let it watch it here, and it was always here, and she didn't even go to breakfast.

This guy has never missed a meal, and he will definitely follow him after a while.

As a result, this guy didn't go, and she praised it in her heart for focusing on the overall situation and being more sensible, but she didn't expect this guy to get up yet.

The food they brought back was not much, and it was estimated that it was not enough for the three people who stayed behind, thinking that there was a lot of food in its space, and it was not bad for this meal and a half, so it was not called it.

Tilt Yan lay on the side of it, and the ugly naturally rolled into her arms, reached out and hugged the fluffy little monkey, and soon fell into a deep sleep.

Li Hao and Wang Qian sat on a stone not far away, and did not rest for the first time, but discussed the process of refining salt in a soft voice.

I think this refining method is really very simple, as long as you can find a salt stone, you can make salt.

If this is the case, wouldn't it be possible to refine salt by himself on an expedition in the future, and there would be no need to send a team to risk their lives or travel long distances to buy it.

Salt and iron are related to people's livelihood, and they were previously owned by the government and will never fall into private hands.

But now it is a troubled time, the heroes are divided, everyone claims to be an official, and those salt and iron are divided instead.

Some of them went to the hands of some big families, some went to the bandits who dominated one side, and in the hands of those who are now in power, there are only some salt mines in the central territory.

The place was heavily guarded, for fear of being robbed.

The profits in this are huge, and they are also related to the people's livelihood, if you don't have these things in your hands, you can't support the soldiers.

Now that he has learned this simple refining method, Li Hao has no more excitement in his heart.

whispered to Wang Gan: "This Xue family sister is really a lucky star, I was worried about how to send troops to rescue my father and eldest brother after joining my second brother, and now there is a ready-made reason!" ”

Wang Gan's eyes lit up and said, "The master refers to ......"

Li Hao nodded, "That's right, just tell the saint that there are people selling illicit salt here, and there is very likely to be a new salt factory......"

When the time comes, just refine the points and make the difference, just say that it is just a den of hoarding, and you don't really need to spend real money to buy it.

Wang Qian sighed and said: "Now the saint needs a reason to send troops, the surname Shi actually betrayed the saint and directly let the Khitans enter the customs, and now they have entered Xinzhou, and if they don't make a move, the court will ......be in danger."

Li Hao's eyes flashed with gloom, "The imperial court has long been in chaos, as long as we rescue my father, we have to quickly find a way out, I'm afraid it won't be long before the sky will change......"

He looked at Qian Yan with a somewhat complicated look, he didn't know what else this little girl would do, if only she could throw herself under his command.

There were also female generals in the previous dynasty, and even the empress was out, so he didn't underestimate women, thinking that as long as he married the other party, he could get the other party's desperate support.

In fact, on the contrary, it is better to be a husband and wife than to be a confidant, or to exchange interests, which is more reliable than involving the private affairs of men and women.

You must know that people's hearts are fickle, once they empathize and don't fall in love, they will become enemies, even more ruthless than the enemy.

His father was caught on patrol this time, and it was a ghost from outsiders in a concubine's room he brought with him.

The concubine had lost the child by another concubine before, and his father did not administer justice to her, so he hated it and directly collaborated with the enemy in private.

It's just that he didn't expect that the other party was also using her, and he didn't take her away, he wanted to kill her directly, but he was rescued by his men who were driven over.

She told the truth now, now the person is still locked up in the army, waiting for his father to come back and deal with it himself, after all, he is a concubine, and it is not easy for him to deal with it directly.

After he knew what was going on, he wanted to lead his troops to the rescue, but he didn't have a tiger talisman, he wasn't a general, and his position was just a small vanguard officer, and he couldn't command the army at all.

Later, his father's military advisor gave him an idea to go up to a nearby mountain in Yunzhou to find the chief of the forest, it is said that the chief of the forest not only knows the art of Qimen Dunjia, but also is good at poisoning.

As long as he said that he would move the Dao Chief, or ask for medicine from the Dao Chief, and cause chaos in the opponent's barracks, he could take him and his father's dozens of guards to the rescue.

That's why he came here with two guards, but now that Lin Daochang has been known by the other party, this trick will definitely not work.

Now I can only find a way to get the Holy Majesty to give an order and let his eldest brother or second brother lead troops to the rescue.

But just for his father, the saint will definitely not agree, so he can only find a reason, and he feels that this reason has been found now.

After waiting to get out of the mountain, he went to meet with his second brother to discuss the matter.

His father has time, and the other party takes his father as a hostage, just because he wants to take the two cities where his eldest brother and second brother are stationed without spending a single soldier, and will not take his father's life.

Li Hao frowned and sighed, now that my father doesn't know what to do, even if he doesn't have to worry about his life, he has suffered a lot......
