Chapter 289 Saltpeter Mountain
Qin Shou hurriedly took it and thanked him again and again.
While the two were chatting, someone suddenly came in to report.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, there are people outside the palace who ask to see you."
Qin Shou nodded and arched his hand: "Mr. Sun, then I'll go and meet the guests first." β
Side chamber of the Department of Medicine.
Fan Li walked in with a smile on his face, followed by Dao's graceful figure - Liu Ruyan.
Qin Shou personally poured tea for the two of them, and said with a smile: "How many silver taels are left on this trip?" β
Fan Li smiled bitterly: "Didn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince say before that the saltpeter mountains in Qizhou, Shangzhou, Yongzhou and other prefectures and counties near Chang'an have all been purchased. β
"Forty-five thousand, not a single cent."
As he spoke, Fan Li placed a small wooden box in front of Qin Shou, and inside was a thick stack of contract paper.
Although Qin Shou had already expected it in his heart, after hearing this amount, he couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart.
This is the effect achieved by smashing all the wine shops and the incense pavilion plus the rewards he has received.
But fortunately, it is Fan Li who is out of the horse, and these saltpeter mountains are all barren mountains, so that so many mountains can be purchased at a low price.
Qin Shou sighed, and then said, "Do you have a classification of these saltpeter mountains?" β
Fan Li nodded, took out the contract from the small wooden box, pulled out the bottom six contract papers, handed them to Qin Shou and said, "These are mountains with less saltpeter content. β
"At the top is a saltpeter-rich mountain."
Qin Shou didn't look at it, he took one from the top, handed it to Fan Li and said, "These saltpeter mountains, you want to find a way to spread them out in Chang'an City, and then sell them in the way of the highest price." β
"But be careful, don't really sell it."
"Only when the imperial court makes a move can these mountains be sold to the imperial court."
Qin Shou naturally wouldn't be stupid enough to swallow these mountains by himself, and he always had to leak some benefits to his father.
Otherwise, if he really pushes his father into a hurry, I'm afraid I won't be able to eat and walk around.
We must know how to develop sustainably, in order to stabilize development!
Inkyo Pavilion.
Shangguan Yi straightened his clothes and sat behind the counter, his body straight.
Today he is on a mission, to show his handsome and elegant side in front of Wu Mo and win Wu Mo's favor.
However, until the end of the day, Wu Mo still did not appear in the incense pavilion.
After Qin Shou finished dealing with the affairs of the Medical Department, he came to the Incense Pavilion.
"How's the battle going?"
As soon as he entered the gate, Qin Shou couldn't wait to ask.
Shangguan Yi's face was strange, and he said suspiciously: "Sir, your face is like a woman chatting on the street corner." β
Qin Shou narrowed his eyes and raised his eyebrows.
Shangguan Yi hurriedly said, "Sir, if the student is joking, don't be angry." β
Qin Shou took a deep breath and said, "Is Wu Mo here today?" β
Shangguan Yi shook his head truthfully and said, "No, I don't know what's wrong, the little girl who came every day a few days ago didn't come today." β
As she spoke, Shangguan Yi pinched her chin thoughtfully and murmured, "Is it because she finally found out that she was not worthy of me, so she broke off her thoughts?" β
Qin Shou was speechless.
He really doesn't know where this guy's self-confidence comes from, is it possible that anyone who can't achieve great things needs to have this kind of self-confidence?
Qin Shou helplessly held his forehead and said, "That's it, let's close it today." β
Just as Shangguan Yi was tidying up the faΓ§ade, a crisp voice sounded.
"Hey, is this closing?"
Qin Shou was slightly stunned, and then followed the prestige, and saw a girl in a light pink costume standing in front of the door of the Incense Pavilion, and she tilted her head.
It was the girl who played the music at the palace banquet before-Wu Mo.
When the two met their eyes, Wu Mo smiled.
"Courtier Wu Mo, I have seen His Royal Highness the Prince."
Wu Mo smiled and saluted slowly.
With bright eyes and bright teeth, ice muscles and jade skin, it is really a country and a city.
Wu Mo had only returned to Chang'an City in recent days, and then he heard the rumors of Qin Shou.
What fighting wine poems, 100 poems, one night fish and dragon dance, what civil and military fighting to suppress the Tubo people, what 30 guards attack a city.
It seems to have become an image of both civil and military.
At the palace banquet, Wu Mo was also secretly watching Qin Shou, and after hearing the poems that Qin Shou made for General Xun'er, his eyes were even brighter.
So I became interested in His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty.
After hearing that Qin Shou had two industries under his name, the Wine Shop and the Incense Pavilion, Wu Mo came to the Incense Pavilion every day, and he was more generous.
It's just a pity that I have never seen Qin Shou's figure.
Until today.
At this time, Wu Mo was quiet and dignified, with a beautiful posture.
Shangguan Yi lowered his voice and said in a deep voice: "Sir, this girl is the person I mentioned earlier. β
Qin Shou naturally recognized it, and he glanced at Shangguan Yi.
The latter understood, hurriedly stepped forward, and said with a hippie smile: "The door hasn't closed yet, but the girl wants to buy some perfume?" β
Wu Mo secretly glanced at Qin Shou, his face was slightly red, and his voice lowered, "Yes." β
Seeing Wu Mo's red face, Qin Shou's eyes lit up, there was a play.
It's no wonder that this Wu Mo frequently comes to Yinxiang Pavilion, and he was originally tempted by this kid Shangguanyi.
Wu Mo slowly walked to the edge of the perfume shelf, seemingly choosing perfumes, but in fact, the afterglow of his eyes skimmed to Qin Shou and Shangguan Yi from time to time.
And Shangguan Yi and Qin Shou were secretly happy in their hearts.
Stabilized, it seems that this Wu Mo does have a good impression of Shangguan Yi.
Qin Shou secretly kicked Shangguan Yi, and then pouted.
Shangguan Yi coughed lightly, slowly walked to Wu Mo's side, and said with concern: "The girl doesn't have a favorite perfume?" β
Wu Mo hung his head and shook his head slightly.
That's right.
Wu Mo has bought almost all the perfume varieties of Yinxiang Pavilion in the past few days, and there is no need to introduce them for a long time.
Shangguan Yi scratched his head and said with a smile: "By the way, this is my husband Qin Shou, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." β
Qin Shou was completely speechless.
Where did you run away with your usual sharp teeth, why do you only know about awkward chats now.
But since he had already introduced himself, Qin Shou had no choice but to say hello with a smile.
"Miss Wumo, we have met at the palace banquet."
Wu Mo hurriedly bowed slightly and said, "When I heard His Highness's poems at the palace banquet before, I only felt that he was worthy of being the first genius in Chang'an, and he was really brilliant. β
Qin Shou smiled and said, "Miss Wumo has won the award." β
"Thank you Miss Wumo for playing the music."
Shangguan Yi watched the two of them humble to each other, and suddenly felt that he seemed to be a little redundant.
Didn't you call yourself to hook up with Miss Wu Mo?
Why did the gentleman talk so happily by himself?
Shangguan Yi covered his mouth with his hand and coughed lightly a few times to show his presence.
Qin Shou woke up like a dream, and hurriedly bypassed the topic: "There are still some things on my side, so I won't stay more." β
