"What? The emperor and the Khitan negotiated peace, and returned to the palace safe and sound? The stakes are high, where did you hear the news, and is it true? "In the palace of King Wu Yue, King Wu Yue was shocked when he heard the news that Emperor Xuanhe had returned to the palace, and he didn't even receive the signal of the Khitan response, and the Khitan reached a consensus on unilaterally making peace with Emperor Xuanhe, isn't that just abandoning his ally? There must be something strange about this. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Lord Wang, this matter is absolutely true, even the first part of the Imperial Forest Army stationed in King Wuyue has already been pulled back to Wuyue. Southern Chu and the Khitan signed a peace treaty and reached a century-old peace consensus, and the people in the border areas cheered when they heard the news. Yuan Fang, a henchman on the front line of King Wu Yue, knelt on the ground and reported to him the latest war in the north.

"Oops, treacherous Khitan Emperor, when I saw that he had given me the signal to raise troops for the past few days, I knew that something must have happened. Now he wants to stand on the side of the Emperor Xuanhe and protect him. With the peace of mind of the north, the people will no longer be in turmoil and unrest in a short time. It's a pity that the strength I have painstakingly accumulated for eight years will be destroyed overnight. King Wu Yue angrily smashed the teacup in his hand.

"Lord, the Khitan is just negotiating peace with Nanchu, what does it have to do with us, we can accumulate strength for a few more years, anyway, this Emperor Xuanhe is also very confused, and the prince is his brother-in-law, he doesn't dare to do anything to you."

"Yuan Fang, you are confused this time, this Khitan Emperor Yelu Hongye is scheming, how could he let Emperor Xuanhe come back for no reason. He wanted to borrow a knife to kill someone. If I'm not mistaken, Emperor Xuanhe must have heard some rumors from Yelu Hongye that I was going to collude with the Khitan to rebel. Maybe it won't be long before you invite me to Jingzhou City to ask for my guilt. I can't wait, God can't give me a second eight years to prepare. You quickly inform them, let those secret armies hurry up their training, raise soldiers for a thousand days, and let Xiong Jie see the real Wang Shi I trained this time. ”

Outside the house, Xiong Zhen'er, the county lord, walked in with a big belly and was supported by the maid, "Daddy, who made you unhappy again?" ”

King Wu Yue glanced at Yuan Fang, and Yuan Fang understood, bowed to the prince and the county lord and retreated first. King Wu Yue saw that the county lord was already pregnant and walking around with a big belly, so he hurriedly stepped forward to support his daughter, and blamed: "They are all going to be mothers, and they are still so disobedient, didn't they say that you should have a good life and recuperate?" What should I do if I have tire gas? How did this Lu Xiaoyu become a father, even you two can't take care of it, and you can still entrust him with something big to do in the future. ”

"Daddy, don't blame Xiaoyu, have you forgotten what you told him to do? Early this morning, he went to the coast to monitor the progress of boiling salt. He also asked me to rest in the room, but my daughter just heard a loud noise from her father's side, and she was afraid that her father would be angry and hurt, so she came to take a look. ”

King Wu Yue remembered that Lu Xiaoyu, who was already his son-in-law, gained his trust, and handed over the project of boiling salt and coinage to Lu Xiaoyu, who was familiar with it, to complete. It has to be said that he has extraordinary talent and precise thinking. Although he had not been exposed to coinage or boiling salt in his previous life, he had developed a habit of reading miscellaneous books. He has more or less mastered all these kinds of knowledge, and what is even more rare is that he can still remember it. The mint and salt boiling yards were well managed by him, coupled with side businesses such as Lu Xiaoyu's previous money village, and under the vigorous promotion of King Wu Yue, the entire Wu Yue economy was thriving.

King Wu Yue saw all this in his eyes, compared to Xiong Shiren, he only had the advantage of blood, and Lu Xiaoyu was much stronger in all aspects. I had to rebel directly this time, and I had to use Lu Xiaoyu's place. He had the intention to let Lu Xiaoyu slowly take over the military duties, but the things that Lu Xiaoyu did before also made King Wu Yue a little estranged from him, so he didn't give him actual power for a long time, but just let him supervise the mint and salt boiling yard every day.

Seeing Xiong Zhen'er's belly getting bigger day by day, King Wu Yue had no choice but to compromise slowly, after all, this grandson wanted to call Lu Xiaoyu a father. He said with concern: "Zhen'er, Dad is not angry, he just broke the teacup by mistake, let the family clean it up later, I will help you go back to the room to rest." ”

Xiong Zhen'er obediently snuggled in the arms of King Wu Yue, and was carried back by him to the wedding room where she and Lu Xiaoyu had not yet removed the red happy word. When King Wu Yue was leaving, he thought of something and instructed Xiong Zhen'er: "Zhen'er, when Xiaoyu comes back, tell him and let him come to Qinglong Hall, I have something to discuss with him."

At this time, Lu Xiaoyu stood on the seawall of the newly built Yancheng salt drying field along the coast of Qiantang, which is now the only production base for sea salt in Quannan Chu. This is also after Lu Xiaoyu came to Qiantang, he worked hard again, surveyed the terrain, and sent people to build it day and night.

On one side of the salt field is the seawall built to protect the production of salt industry, because it was built by Lu Xiaoyu, so it is named Lugong embankment, and on the other side is the salt canal that runs through the major salt works - the Kushiba River.

Han Xin has been protected by Lu Xiaoyu's side recently, and he looked at this landmark building with a strong sense of modern design in Lu Xiaoyu's mind, and couldn't help but sigh: "Brother Xiaoyu, it is really a great blessing in my life to know you, you have given me a subversive understanding of everything." The only thing I respected before my life was my mother, who taught me a lot of things about how to be a human being. Now I admire you the most, you tell me that the world is so wonderful. ”

Lu Xiaoyu smiled and picked up a handful of sea salt that had not been completely dried, "Actually, I am not as smart as you think, these are some of the sages of my hometown that you don't know have been summarized from generation to generation, and there is a magical legend here." A long, long time ago, the Jade Emperor inspected the Nine Heavens and scattered a handful of crystals in a place called Yancheng, and the crystals fell to the upper reaches of the Kushiba River, creating the current strange structure. I just did what the legend says. ”

Lu Xiaoyu knew that these methods of boiling salt, including the method of coinage and smelting that he was carrying out on the other side, were all the experience summed up by the ancestors after hundreds of thousands of refinements, and now he was completely taking it, although everyone had never seen it, but he still had to speak clearly and respect those great pioneers.

"Brother Xiaoyu, I really want to go to your hometown to see where such a smart genius as Big Brother can be bred when I have the chance."

Lu Xiaoyu said to himself in his heart: "I'm afraid I don't even want to go back in my own life." ”

Looking at this peculiar shape and modern Nanchuhai Salt Factory, it is like a string of crystal clear white salt crystals, which have been magically embedded in the bank of the Kushiba River full of ancient charm. Lu Xiaoyu and Han Xin's hearts were surging, and they couldn't calm down for a long time.
