Chapter 2168 Asking for Advice from Master You
No need to go hungry.
After a day of hard work, returning home to eat hot and fragrant steamed buns is the dream of many people!
After the second crop of grain was harvested, harvest festivals were held in all parts of Shanjin.
Offer sacrifices to heaven, earth and dragon gods.
The country has also begun to gradually promote new crops as planned. The Golden Plain is too large, and the concentration of spiritual energy is increasing rapidly. Many spiritual herbs that could only survive in the mountains have begun to grow at lower altitudes.
These are cash crops with higher value.
He Lingchuan has been looking forward to the time when the magical rice and seeds used by the ancient immortal sects can return to the human world. Such magical rice can definitely greatly enhance the physical fitness of ordinary people.
All the mines in the Shining Gold Plains belong to Cang Yan State, but except for the large-scale mines that are mined by the government, the mining rights of other scattered small mines are leased or in the form of public-private partnerships. Since they were taken over by the Dragon God Army during the Dragon God War, they have been working overtime to mine and smelt.
The mineral products of this period were not difficult to sell. The ore products of the Gold Plains were popular in every country.
The residents of the Golden Plains don't care about foreign affairs and focus on production, so naturally there are people to protect them. But in fact, looking at the whole world, has there ever been a day of peace?
……
Moudu, the pure and clear blue stream.
It had just rained, and when You Huan opened the window of the monastery, he immediately smelled the fresh fragrance of grass and soil.
He spent his entire youth on a farm in the countryside and liked the atmosphere there.
Then he saw Mei Wuniang walking along the winding gravel road of Houxi, holding a gold-painted food box in her hand. She was dressed in a delicate and tender peach pink, and her fluttering skirt was slightly wet, like a peony in the rain. But her shorts were very neat, and she jumped over the stream with great ease, unlike the wide sleeves popular among the noble ladies of Moudu, which made it difficult for them to walk.
When guests passed by, she greeted them with a lively and bright smile on her face.
When Mei Wuniang knocked on the door of the temple, she heard a plain voice saying "Come in".
She pushed the door open and saw You Huan writing furiously. The documents on the table were piled very thick, more than two palms high.
"You get up early and go to bed late every day to work. Did the emperor give you a raise?" She walked in naturally and put the lunch box on the low table beside the couch. "Today's breakfast has your favorite sweet-scented osmanthus red bean ice cream cheese."
When it’s hot, people love to drink some cool sweet drinks.
Her Houxi Hermitage has green trees behind it to block the sunlight, and a gurgling stream in front of it to cool down. It is also close to the royal palace, so You Huan often comes here at noon and evening, and sometimes he stays here and doesn't go back home.
This naturally became one of his office locations, and he would use the storage ring to transport documents coming and going.
You Huan watched Mei Wuniang take out the snacks one by one and place them on the small table.
This woman is very careful and knows her limits. When he is working or has documents on his desk, Mei Wuniang will not get close to him to avoid causing dissatisfaction.
After all, the documents that You Huan reviewed on a daily basis were full of secrets.
In this regard, she did better than his family.
"Is today's breakfast so sumptuous?" You Huan closed the book, stood up, moved to the couch to eat, and listened to Mei Wuniang talking about some interesting things in the store.
She was always smiling and looked a little heartless. She didn't even peel eggs for him.
Unlike those women who served him wholeheartedly.
You Huan rarely heard her complain, and she never asked him anything. You Huan always felt that he was just a distinguished guest here.
Is Mei Wu Niang playing hard to get?
By the way, the general assistant often came here to linger, which was to promote Su Luo Qing Xi's reputation. Suddenly, more and more dignitaries came here to drink tea, listen to books and chat.
As soon as this thought came to her mind, Mei Wuniang asked him, "Can I ask Master You a favor?"
She was finally going to speak? "Go ahead."
"The Datong Horse and Coach Station on Nanli Street is suddenly up for sale, so I went to inquire about it. The three or four hundred horses there are all well-fed, strong and rarely sick, and they are also young, so they can be transported for another three to five years. In addition, the three owners of the Baishifang Restaurant broke up and can't continue. Which one do you think I should buy from?" Mei Wuniang played with her braids, "Opportunities are rare."
She has established a firm foothold in Moudu and is now planning to expand her business.
Today, Mei Wuniang tied her long hair into a shiny side braid, which made her look cute and down-to-earth.
You Huan glanced at her and said, "Why don't you take over both families? Are you short of money?"
Mei Wu Niang said seriously: "Money is one thing. Both the coach and horse inn and the restaurant employ a lot of people. It's troublesome to manage a lot of people. I'm new here, so it's best for me to handle the business one by one, otherwise I'll be really busy."
"Then let's take over the Baishifang Restaurant."
"Why?" Mei Wuniang asked, "What's the point of this?"
"According to the law, during war, civilian horses may be requisitioned. The civilian horses in other counties have already been requisitioned, and those in the capital will be requisitioned later." You Huan answered casually, "Why do you think Datong Horse and Carriage Station is closed and wants to be transferred?"
"Ah, they heard the news in advance!" Mei Wu Niang bit her lip and said bitterly, "How cunning, trying to trick people into taking over."
The government requisitioned the horses for wartime needs, and the compensation paid was very little. If there was such a heavy risk, she would be stepping into a big pit if she took over the carriage and horse inn now.
If the carriage and horse inn has no horses, won’t it be out of business immediately?
"Fortunately, I have a great god here to give me advice!" Mei Wu Niang immediately bowed to You Huan, "Thank you for your advice, Lord You! I understand."
Seeing her happy look, You Huan knew that she was going to leave with another excuse.
He ran away after using it, without even staying a moment.
As expected, Mei Wuniang's next words were: "Take your time to eat. I'm going to negotiate with Baishifang. I heard that many people are interested in buying it."
You Huan recalled the night when he took office as the chief minister and stayed at Qingxi in Sutao.
The two of them were obviously so close and affectionate, but the next morning, Mei Wuniang smiled and sent herself off to court, without any reluctance at all.
"Wait a minute."
Mei Wu Niang turned halfway around and turned back to look at him: "Anything else you want to remind me?"
"I solved a big problem for you, how are you going to thank me?"
Mei Wu Niang pouted her lips, took two steps closer to him, hooked her slender jade fingers around his belt, and said with a seductive look: "What do you think, sir?"
You Huan couldn't stand the innocent girl with long braids turning into a scourge in a second. But he was very rational and stroked her face: "I'm in a hurry to enter the palace."
"Then I'll accompany you to go boating in Shangxi tonight?" Mei Wuniang had an idea as soon as her eyes rolled. "The stream is quiet, no one is making noise. And I heard that it's the season of fireflies now. When the wind blows and the boat passes by, wow, the sky is full of little lanterns."
