Li Yunfan apologized, and his fighting spirit was ignited again, he shook his little head and made an invitation to Sheng Shiyu.

I'm going to try it next year!

"Brother Yunfan, I'll be overage next year and won't be able to compete."

Sheng Shiyu couldn't hide his regret on his face.

This year, Yan Shangshu's grandson couldn't participate because he was overage, so he could only be a cheerleader, standing at the finish line just now and shouting, roaring with a red face and a thick neck, although he didn't compete, but he had a full sense of existence.

"It's okay, anyway, the rules are set by my father, just let my father change the rules."

Xiao Yunfan gently shook the broken hair on his forehead, and his tone was very casual.

"Huh?" Sheng Shiyu's eyes widened by two points: "Is this okay?" ”

Will Lord Yan have an opinion?

"Why not?" At this moment, Li Yunfan was surprised: "Don't you know? My dad will make overlord clauses, my shop, my family's competition, of course, my dad has the final say. ”

Sheng Shiyu: "......"

Envy flashed in his eyes.

He knew Lord Li's overlord clause, and there was a very clear clause in these two bicycle races, and the Li family was not responsible for any safety problems for all the children who participated.

……

I envy the wanton Lord Li.

Obviously, he is the emperor's grandson, and Lord Li is just a courtier, but Lord Li has just opened a store in Shengjing and has put out the overlord clause that as long as he enters the store, he will not be responsible.

This kind of toughness and freedom, I don't know when he will have it......

After the bicycle race, Li Qiao received a letter from Li Yuning.

After Li Yuning and Ming Xi got married, they were still brides, so they were busy opening the shop.

Knowing that her father and mother don't think there is anything wrong with her showing up every day, and she doesn't open a shop purely to make money, she can provide a job for many people and make the villagers in their hometown richer, and the Ming family must not say anything to stop this kind of good deed.

The Ming family is very supportive of their career, but Li Yuning did not rush forward, and last year she was more interested in inspecting the local situation.

After fully understanding the local people's livelihood, she opened a lotus root flour workshop this year.

The local lotus root is abundant, and it is very suitable for her to open a lotus root powder workshop, which not only finds a way out for the lotus root, but also earns money for the local people.

Part of the lotus root flour is sold to the local rich and noble, and part is transported to Shengjing.

Shengjing's lotus root flour market is not yet saturated.

Although the Grand Canal does not pass through Beihu Province, the Grand Canal will freeze in winter, and even if it passes through Beihu Province, they will still have to take a land route.

Now the official road from Beihu Province to Shengjing is a flat cement road, and it is quite fast to take the land route.

In addition to the lotus root flour workshop, she also opened a duck goods workshop, she is very cautious, and plans to open the shop step by step on the premise of keeping the Li family's secret recipe.

Li Yuning was fine in Beihu Province, and everyone in the Li family was relieved.

However, Wang Guihua thought of Li Xiaolan, and her heart was still blocked.

Look at what Li Yu'an and Li Yuning's sisters and brothers chose, and then look at their stupid girl who is fascinated by sex, and have a headache.

Regarding Li Xiaolan's infatuation, Li Qiao was also a little surprised.

Although he and Tao Zhu's luxury carriage is like a small RV, in terms of convenience, it is far from catching up with the RV.

Li Xiaolan is willing to follow Jiang Mao in the wind and rain, and she insists on it for more than half a year, which really responds to the old saying, marriage is like drinking water, and you know your own warmth and coldness.

The days of the people in Shengjing were ordinary and busy, and in the court, Sheng Hong began to transfer troops to Xishan Province, preparing to fight to the death with the Xihu people.

He wanted to crush Xihu's spirit, and then sit down for peace talks.

Since the resumption of trade with Donghu, the two sides have made three transactions so far, the most recent of which was when Donghu asked for coal in addition to food.

Last year, when the weather was cold, many cattle and sheep froze to death on the grassland, and some people were frozen to death.

Relying only on manure as fuel, some are not enough, and Donghu needs coal.

Sheng Hong could understand this requirement, and he was able to do it with a wave of his hand.

In fact, he really wanted the Donghu people to deal with the Xihu, so as to persuade the Xihu to also lay down their arms and negotiate peace with Dasheng.

But thinking of the intricate relationship between Donghu and Xihu, he didn't open his mouth.

There are also many conflicts between Donghu and Xihu, and the Donghu people are eager for the Dasheng soldiers to consume the Xihu people, if the Xihu people are gone, then the territory of Donghu can expand a lot.

Sheng Hong arranged heavy troops and set up a posture, so that he could have a death battle with the Xihu people at any time.

But what I didn't expect was that in mid-October, the Xihu people actually took the initiative to send a letter to Dasheng, wanting to sit down and negotiate with Dasheng.

The author has something to say:

Chapter 257: Li Yunfan invites the little emperor's grandson

Xihu took the initiative to negotiate peace, Sheng Hong was not very happy, he was worried that the Xihu people were holding back something bad.

He arranged for the mission to make contact with the Xihu people, and as in the negotiations with the Donghu people at that time, the two sides set up tents on the territorial demarcation line and talked in tents.

Moreover, he also asked the mission to perform again, and he was very greedy for the Xihu people.

The Xihu people really didn't play any tricks this time, although they and Donghu had many contradictions, but they were not completely fighting and killing, and they also had normal exchanges.

The nobles of Donghu began to eat and drink spicy food, restored their former happy days, and also played mahjong and fought landlords, which made them not greedy?

In the winter, they can't go out to run horses, hunt and wrestle, all outdoor activities are stopped, what fun is there for them to nest in a tent all day?

But if you have mahjong and fight landlords, and there are delicious food and wine beauties as companions, those days are still very beautiful.

Now that the Donghu people have lived a wonderful life, why do they Xihu people bother to fight with Dasheng?

What's more, desperate efforts may not always be able to grab what you want!

Therefore, the Xihu tribes discussed for a long time, and finally decided to sit down and negotiate with Dasheng.

It's the middle of October, and it's getting colder and colder, and if a heavy snow falls, the road will be closed, and there will be no way to deliver supplies at that time.

Donghu's wine had already been drunk, and the stove in the tent was burning vigorously, so they didn't have to bother with Dasheng to delay.

The Xihu people were so crisp, Sheng Hong finally let go.

That's right.

Restore trade first, press the previous account for the time being, and wait for the weather to warm up later, then everyone will calculate the old account with strength.

If he can't wait for that day, it doesn't matter, he still has a wonderful son.

As for the seven sons, although the two are abolished now, the remaining five can be qualified for the position of Emperor Dasheng by picking any one.

However, it is precisely because his sons are so outstanding that he is dazzled.

Vexation.

At the end of October, a heavy snowfall and the Grand Canal froze.

Ships are impassable.

Only a small part of the grain harvested in the autumn of the southern provinces was transported to Shengjing by the Grand Canal.

The rest had to be taken by road.

Considering the frequent natural disasters in recent years, Sheng Hong and several university scholars discussed for two days and decided to build a large granary in Weiqing County, Yuanhe Province.

Weiqing County is located in the Central Plains, regardless of whether it is going north or south, or eastward or western, it is very convenient.

In addition, the waterway and land route also extend in all directions, so it is very suitable for the granary to be built in Weiqing County.

Sheng Hong made this decision, and Li Qian supported it.

Yes, the Central Plains does need a granary.

After the granary is built, the status of Weiqing County, a small county, will rise in a straight line, and all aspects can drive a wave.

Although the Grand Canal has only been open for four months, almost all the ships that pass through Weiqing County have docked in Weiqing County - Li Gu has specially sent a number of people, and for every ten ships that pass, then eight have to stop at Lijia Wharf.

The daily docking fee alone is a lot of money.

Moreover, many ships are purely going to the Li family's signboard, and they do not need to replenish the most basic materials such as fresh water and food, just to taste the Li family's food.

Who made Li Qiao famous enough?

It has been a full eleven years since Li Qiao invented the vermicelli, plus during this period, Li Qiao was also admitted to the top prize, and now he is the treatment of half a prince, those who have the ability to take the Grand Canal through Weiqing County, how can they not be curious about the Li family's shop.

In the past, it was far away, curiosity turned into curiosity, and it could not be turned into practical action.

But now that they have passed by the door of the Li family's shop, how can there be any reason not to stop and taste it?

The first time I tasted it, I went purely for Li Qiao's fame.

The second tasting, that is the repurchase.

There are many signboards of the Li family, not to mention bicycles, only to say food, sweet, spicy, fried, boiled, there are meals and snacks, there are many patterns, there is always a food that can catch the hearts of tourists.

As a result, the repurchase rate is extremely high.

In this case, the business of Weiqing County is already good enough to catch up with the business of Sanliu Village, and only relying on the 50 or so villagers in Sanliu Village, they can't be busy at all.

Li Gu urgently hired a lot of locals to do short-term work, responsible for handling the early work such as selecting vegetables, killing chickens and ducks, and their villagers were only responsible for seasoning, and the pattern was similar to that in Peng County.

The villagers are quite satisfied with the current situation in Weiqing County, and if they stay in Sanliu Village, they mainly rely on the vermicelli workshop to make money, but the vermicelli workshop is not open all year round.

Staying at the wharf, although the canal will freeze in winter, Li Qiao doesn't care about the salary, regardless of the peak season or the off-season, the basic salary and benefits are the same.

If the business is good, Li Qiao will also give bonuses.

They are so satisfied with this state of keeping their income all year round.
