This time, Su Shao didn't ask anything more, but directly roared: "This box of candles, we all have to ......"

"Alai! Take the lanterns from every house, put them with candles, light them, and rejoice with the people and your guests. ”

Staying in this deep mountain and old forest for one more day, the more he longed for his previous life in Chu, and he also tried to transform it many times, but with little success.

As a last resort, he can only hold back, now that he has the opportunity, he naturally has to vent first, as for whether there are candles or not, there is no need to worry about it at all.

Alai didn't react for a while, and asked in a wooden voice: "All, all light candles?" Is there still a torch to light then? ”

"Silly boy! What torches are you still lit? It's the kind of thing that burns up, and the smoke goes straight to the face, and the ashes are scattered......"

Su Shao rolled his eyes angrily: "Don't you have to be a joke by the distinguished guests!" Well. Only this once, not for example! ”

After thinking about it, he still relaxed and said in a relaxed tone. Anyway, he is not a person who is greedy for pleasure, so he can't let the mountain people under his rule misunderstand.

Hearing this, Alai's slightly frowning brows immediately relaxed, and while running off the stage, he shouted with a smile: "Folks! I want to borrow lanterns from each house and use them......"

"Light up this box of candles and give your guests a more memorable night! Try to keep the lanterns in good condition. If it is damaged, one will pay two for the loss! ”

"Good!"

"That's how it should be!"

"We also want to see what it would be like to see all the candles and lanterns lit?"

The mountain people echoed, and some people left the square one after another to fetch lanterns from their respective homes, and some people gaged and asked, "This lantern will be paid for new ones?" You don't want the old one".

"Definitely, definitely. You shouldn't be at a loss! Alai politely said, with the assistance of ten sailors, that the candles and lanterns were lit and hung on the high pillars around them.

These pillars were previously used for torches.

Before long, the lanterns filled with candles were like fish scales or sparks, and they were spread out high and low in the square of this liao, and they were as bright as day.

Su Shao's eyes were also filled with a little candlelight, and his heart was so warm that it was about to melt, he felt as if he had returned to and immersed himself in the prosperous situation of Chudu Shouchun and Zhaodu Handan.

After a while, he suddenly came back to his senses, and listened to the Chaohu proprietor toast and comfort him: "The king doesn't need to be sentimental. With you treating the people like a child, I believe that Dongou will get better and better! ”

"Where, where. We also have to rely on the honorable guests to sell us more refined salt and candles! He shook his hand and bowed his head in shame.

"Well said! Say! Frequent and frequent correspondence. Seeing that the Donkey was already like this, Zhao Zihu breathed a sigh of relief, and this Dongou seemed to have the overall situation decided.

Just wait for a few more transactions before piercing that layer of window paper......

Zhao Zihu was thinking about it, but he found that he suddenly stared at him, and he seemed to be smiling, and beckoned to him.

"Honorable guest! Please come and talk to us in detail. ”

Zhao Zihu got up and left the case, suddenly having an ominous premonition.

He waved his hand at the table, but saw the king and motioned for him to come over.

Immediately after, Zhao Zihu heard the donkey shake in his ear and said something surprising.

"The honorable guest is a Qin person."

He couldn't help but be stunned, blinked, and then smiled: "How can the king see?" ”

Zhao Zihu is very honest, and there is no turmoil in his heart, people have seen through it, but they have not immediately made trouble, he thinks that this matter will be easily resolved.

Otherwise, although he will not be defeated and die by relying on his own dozen or so people......

However, if you want to get out of trouble, or control the overall situation, I am afraid it will take a lot of twists and turns.

Shi Lu is also a human spirit, and he immediately noticed it: "Brother! Thou art ......."

Xiang Liyue instantly pressed his hand on the hilt of the sword, ready to wait for the opportunity to move.

"Don't worry." He said in a leisurely tone, but in fact, he was panicked in his heart.

What kind of Chaohu proprietor is this, getting so close, it's very oppressive, okay......

And this look, we feel that we are just a little chick at their disposal?

His forehead was sweating, and he said with a smile: "The honorable guest's beard has fallen off." The most important thing is that we think about it, and we really can't think of any overseas island owners who can produce high-yield refined salt and candles for a long time except for the Great Qin royal family! ”

"Tsk! You guessed. Even we are from the Great Qin royal family can guess? "Zhao Zihu is very interesting.

Yu shook his head and shook his head again: "The emperor has a whole Mo family under him!" It should be nothing strange that his generation has researched and improved. ”

That's a clever man......

Zhao Zihu had to express his admiration, he was able to associate the Mo family with the novelty of refined salt and candles, and then start a temptation, which he did not expect.

But this kind of smart person is good!

He is most annoyed by the old Xiangli and Han Fei, who pretends to be confused, or is simply a fool who shouts and kills when he opens his mouth.

"In that case! What is the king going to do with us? Zhao Zihu asked again playfully, and immediately got the answer.

Su Shao suddenly had a stunned look on his face, obviously saying......

Do you think we're so stupid?

Knowing that you are from the Great Qin royal family, I still want to get you and others......

Do you think you have a long life, or are you not miserable enough in a poor ravine?

"Then the king is going to continue this business?"

Regarding Zhao Zihu's words, Fu Shao replied without hesitation: "Of course! By the way, you can also tell us, how has Daqin developed recently? ”

"From this point of view, the king seems to yearn for our Great Qin." Zhao Zihu said, waving his hand behind his back, signaling that Xiang Liyue could relax his guard.

Seeing this, Shi Lu also left the case boldly with confidence, came to the two of them, and chuckled: "Brother! You are not willing to be buried here for the rest of your life......"

"Good for you!" Su Shao snorted angrily at Shi Lu, thinking, bring the enemy to our house, and take things to tempt us? Shameful!

Then, he clenched his fists to his mouth, coughed awkwardly and said, "With the iron law created by the Shang Monarch of Great Qin, how can we yearn for it......"

"At most, I'm curious about what new things can be over there, and besides, when will Daqin break himself down."

Su Shao was so outspoken, it didn't make Zhao Zihu angry, but he just felt quite weird, how could anyone with a little vision see that Daqin would not last long.

But after thinking about it, Zhao Zihu was relieved, and remembered that in the history of his previous life, he simply voted for Tu Sui when he wanted to kill Tu Sui in order to protect the territory and the people......

And after this vote, he still pays attention to the general trend of the world, and speculates that Qin will perish, waiting for an opportunity to do something to revive the hegemony of the ancestors, which is why there is the later "Ping Qin Zuohan".

However, Zhao Zihu now not only wants to shake the big Qin, but also wants him to gradually surrender to his heart, and saddle the horse for his pro-Laozi.

Zhao Zihu smiled immediately: "What kind of ability is standing outside and watching!" Do you want to see how Daqin finishes playing, and if you have the courage, you will end up in person? ”

"The eldest husband judged the situation and rebelled rashly, wasting human life and material resources in vain, isn't it stupid." He shook his lips and sneered.

In fact, he knew that the one who could pretend to be a businessman and let Lu obediently be a guide was by no means a fool, nor was he making any kind of radical tactics to himself, he must have other meanings.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Zihu actually said something that sounded out of tune: "Oh! Assess the situation? Then it seems that the king is destined to die of old age in this poor ravine......"

"Daqin is getting better and better now, it not only has the production process of refined salt and candles, but also improves the official system, punishes corruption and eliminates evil, and is highly supported by the people."

Before testing Zhao Zihu's identity, the voice of the donkey shook was so low that even Shi Lu could not hear it, let alone the mountain people who were laughing in the audience.

And at this time, although the voices on the stage gradually increased, the mountain people did not have the slightest suspicion, just as these bigwigs were expressing their opinions against Daqin through their own experiences and experiences.

In the past, the leaders such as Su Shao and Wu Zhu, Shi Lu, and Yi Hu Song often criticized Daqin, especially Ah Lai, A Tie and others, who only felt that they were used to seeing it, and they were all having fun with themselves.

"How is this possible?" He subconsciously retorted, but thinking of the delicious food he had eaten before, and then looking at the bright lantern and candle flame, he suddenly realized that the things that people said should not be untargeted.

Zhao Zihu took advantage of the situation and added another fire: "That's right! The king of Wuzhu over there in Minyue, I heard that he is a cheerful and generous person, so it may be easier to listen to and persuade. Why don't I sell this refined salt and candle to him first! ”

"Slow!"

The corners of his mouth twitched, and Ah Zhu's mouth could say that the dead were alive? You wait for Daqin to go over with these few people, I'm afraid that I won't be fooled and stupid.

What's more, this refined salt, candles, and fat meat that has just reached the mouth......

Even if it's a brother, you can't give it to someone so easily!

Su Shao said a little deflated: "Didn't you just say that these two things will be sold to us first?" At most, let's help you earn Ah Zhu first, and see what he means......"

"If he has the intention, we will advance and retreat with him!"

Hearing what Su Shao said, Zhao Zihu and Shi Lu exchanged glances.

Zhao Zihu nodded approvingly: "Yes!" ”

He really didn't have time, so he followed Shi Lu's legs like this to find King Wuzhu of Minyue.

According to the administrative area divided by later generations, it was a cross-provincial business, and in this era of undeveloped mountains and forests and inconvenient transportation, it would take ten days and half a month to say the least.

However, he still asked with a little concern: "Is it convenient?" Are there any risks? ”

What I instantly understood what Zhao Zihu said was that the other leaders of the Song Dynasty would not have a trumpet to stare at and see through the superficial discord between themselves and Wuzhu that was just a fake......

Su shook his breath and glared at Shi Lu: "Brother! What did you say? ”

Shi Lu grinned apologetically, basically what should be said and what should not be said were confessed.

"Who is this ......?"

"Daqin Gongzi Zihu."

"Shhh

I really couldn't believe it this time.

How can we be in this land of a hundred people......

actually asked a great Qin prince to come forward and pretend to be a lowly businessman to lure him.

He waved his hand at Zhao Zihu again and again in convincing.

"Don't worry, Childe! What we just said is that if Ah Zhu is 'earned', it will naturally cause him to suffer a lot of flesh and skin, and others will not dare to beak it......"

He paused for a moment and said, "If this matter does not come to an end, we promise that we will do everything possible to send Gongzi and the others out of Dongou safely." ”

Zhao Zihu waved his hand and chuckled silently, he hadn't yet reached the time when outsiders were desperately trying to protect him, don't talk about his own ability with Xiang Liyue......

The ten sailors who went deep into Baiyue with them were even more proficient in the mandarin duck formation and guerrilla warfare, and unless they were poisoned in advance, they would be invincible.

"Then please stay for two more days. In two days, you will see people! He shook his hand again, and then walked off the stage quickly, and whispered to Alai.

With his explanation, Alai looked up at Zhao Zihu in amazement, and there were some doubts in his eyes, and finally he took the order, poured a large sip of wine, and then rushed away from the crowd, and soon disappeared into the night of the mountains and forests.

The laughter here did not end until the second half of the night.

After the end of the show, Zhao Zihu, Xiang Liyue and others were placed in three rooms on the right side of the terraced house on the side of the square.

Before parting, Zhao Zihu asked Shi Lu very suspiciously, how would Alai "earn" Minyue Wang Wuzhu to come over.

Shi Lu also smiled silently, and asked the son to wait to see a good show.

He thought to himself.

Childe!

But you didn't make it clear first, what are the advantages and disadvantages of refined salt and coarse salt......

But correspondingly, knowing that there was a lot of miasma in the mountains at night, Shi Lu left Zhao Zihu a bag of wormwood balls.

It means that in and out of the house must be lit and carried, which can drive away miasma and insects.

Two days are fleeting.

In the past two days, Zhao Zihu, Xiang Liyue and others have lived peacefully in the village liao in Donou, and the hospitality of the big and small banquets has almost exhausted most of the wine and food accumulated before.

Many mountain people, including Ah Tie, wondered at first why the king was so desperate......

But after that, he found a reason for Su Shao to "attach great importance to refined salt and candles, and want to take the opportunity to become big in front of other leaders".

Zhao Zihu can see that among the more than 40,000 mountain people, he is very popular, not to mention the question of whether he votes for Qin or not......

Even if they want to punish the mountain people severely, the person who is being disposed of will at most hesitate to think about what he has done wrong, and will not resist.

On the evening of the third day.

There was a sudden commotion outside the village.

When Zhao Zihu, Xiang Liyue and others were curious, and followed the mountain people to the gate of the village, they saw that on the slightly rugged mountain road ahead, there was a burst of sand and dust, and it felt like someone was chasing each other on horseback.

When people gradually saw clearly, the first thing they saw was Alai riding a white horse with a divine steed, running ahead.

…… Boom!

As the kid ran, he grinned at the pursuers behind him and provoked: "Come on, come on!" Come and chase us......"

"No king! Are you old and frail, chasing us for a day and a night, and you still fall so far. ”

None of the two pursuers behind him were old men. The one at first was tall and thin, with a full beard.

He shook his whip, drove the horses under his crotch, and pointed at Alai viciously and scolded: "What a little monkey spirit! Is it ...... itchy?"

"He came to steal our Lu in the middle of the night! Don't think that our family really doesn't dare to discipline this little monkey spirit for the king of the Ru family. Hurry up and get whipped!! ”
