Chapter 197: Studying Tea Bricks

Caicai didn't expect Yang Ze to agree, and he promised so happily, you must know that in this place in the west of the town, horses are very valuable things, although there is a prairie near the horse-producing grassland, but horses are not owned if they want to have them, and they will not be cheap because they are more. On the contrary, just as the Dafang Empire banned salt from the Dafang Empire, the Ballu Hun also banned horses from the Dafang Empire, and there is another key point, that is, the previous county commanders will not let Li Yan, the former prince, have horses, so Caicai has never seen a horse in his family since he was a child.

Looking at the vegetables with brilliance in his eyes, Yang Ze nodded solemnly and said, "Of course it's true, I'm a dignified county magistrate, how can I lie to you as a little girl." But ......"

Caicai became nervous again, I don't know what Yang Ze will say, but generally speaking, when others can't say it, they have to regret it!

Yang Ze said: "Do you know how to ride a horse?" I've been here for so many days, but I haven't seen you ride a horse, I haven't even seen you ride a donkey, you've ridden a sheep, have you? ”

Nana hurriedly said: "I can ride a horse, but it's too cold in winter, and I don't have a horse, so I can't ride." Every year when the weather is warm, Uncle Hao will take me out to ride a horse, my riding skills are good, I will also shoot arrows on horses, every year I can shoot rabbits, last year I also shot an eagle, but that eagle was raised by someone else, and I shot it down! ”

Yang Ze laughed, you shot down someone else's eagle, it must be a falcon, it can be hard to raise a falcon, the owner of the falcon has to find you desperately!

Suddenly, he saw a hint of shyness on Nana's face, and he suddenly realized that the falcon must be the prince of some shit, and it was because of this falcon that they knew each other!

Let's see how far she and that bullshit prince have developed, whether they have reached the point where they swear to the death!

Yang Ze said: "It must be a falcon." Isn't that right, it should be raised by a very powerful person, ordinary people can't afford to raise a falcon, that person is a warrior, right? Did he stingy with your falcon? ”

At the mention of that "warrior", Nana's face immediately showed an expression of admiration, and she said: "It's that prince, he is very strong, very brave, riding a white horse, and he has many men. His falcon was shot dead by me, but he didn't get angry and didn't ask me for compensation, but asked my name and gave me a sheep to take home. ”

Yang Ze sighed, and said, "Then did you hunt together, did he tell you his name?" ”

Nana nodded and said, "Sue sΓΉ." He said that he lived in the bald prairie and was the prince of the Murong tribe, and he gave himself a Chinese name, Wang Rufeng. Because he was a prince, he was surnamed Wang, and he rode on a horse and galloped like the wind. So he was called Wang Rufeng, but after his Han name was called, no one called him. Everyone still calls him Prince! ”

"It turned out to be a windy man! So did you hunt together? Yang Ze is very concerned about whether the two of them travel together.

Nana showed a disappointed look on her face, shook her head and said: "No, we only met once, and then we never saw each other again, we didn't hunt together, at that time, my father said that there was a bald tribe outside, and that the people of the bald people were barbarians, so I was not allowed to go out of the city, saying that I was afraid that I would be taken away by the bad guys, but in fact, there was a prince, and he would protect me, so that the bad guys wouldn't kidnap me!" ”

Yang Ze thought to himself: "What your father is afraid of is that the prince will take you away." Well, it's unlikely that he'll kidnap you, but it's not unlikely that he'll kidnap you! ”

He said curiously: "So, you have only met him once, you shot his falcon, not only did he not blame you, but he also gave you a sheep, and then you regarded him as your sweetheart, this is too hasty, right?" Does he think of you as a sweetheart? ”

Cai Cai is in a hurry, her little face is red, although Hu Feng is open here, but when it comes to her sweetheart, she will still be a little embarrassed, especially when she regards the prince as her sweetheart, but I don't know if people regard her as a sweetheart, the girl's mind, she is very reluctant to say no, she has always fantasized that the prince also thinks of her as her sweetheart!

Caicai hurriedly said: "Of course, of course he is my sweetheart, we call it love at first sight, do you understand, if he doesn't like me, why should he give me sheep and not let me compensate his falcon?" ”

Yang Ze sighed, thinking to himself: "The bald prince, no matter how lonely and unheard of, he will also know that there is a former prince of the Dafang Empire living here, and he will also know that there is a little princess like you, although your father has lost the throne, he doesn't need to stutter, but a falcon is nothing, and a sheep is nothing." If you are in Chang'an, which prince dares to give you such a thin gift as a sheep, it is a big disrespect, you have to ask someone to beat him with a green bag! ”

Caicai saw Yang Ze's disapproving face, obviously, he didn't believe his words, she was so anxious that her tears were about to come out, her little face was red, her eyes were red, she stomped her feet, and said angrily: "Ignore you, I don't want your horse anymore, let you eat grass with the horse!" He turned around and ran away, and sure enough, he didn't pay attention to Yang Ze anymore.

Yang Ze looked at her back and said with a smile: "Then I'll give you sheep too, I'm not so stingy, if I want to send sheep, I'll send a pair, this is called a pair, it's good luck!" ”

In the distance, Fu Bingrong took a few soldiers to act as guards, Yang Ze and Caicai talked, they didn't come, and when they saw Caicai running away angrily, Fu Bingrong came over.

With a smile, Fu Bingrong said, "Master, why is the little princess angry, are you provoking her?" ”

Yang Ze's face sank, and he shouted: "Bastard thing, you dare to talk about the princess behind your back, you are getting bolder and bolder!" ”

Fu Bingrong didn't care, but continued to discuss, and said: "Our little princess, it's not like the princess in Chang'an, she is very good, she hasn't learned to intrigue, she can be called a good match, and Master, you are really a pair made in heaven, Master don't let go of the opportunity!" ”

Yang Ze said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about, can you say this casually, this is also in Zhenxi, if it is in Chang'an, you have to be cut off!" ”

Fu Bingrong still said: "If the master goes to propose marriage to the prince, I dare to guarantee that he will definitely agree, on this acre of three-point land, it is almost impossible for him to find a better son-in-law!" ”

"If you dare to talk nonsense, be careful that I send you back to Chang'an, hand it over to Liang Dazhong, and let him train you well!" Yang Ze's eyes narrowed.

Thinking of Liang Dazhong's old eunuch, Fu Bingrong's face suddenly turned green, and he really didn't dare to say it anymore, he was most afraid of the old eunuch, and now he was suffering from eunuch phobia!

After that, more than ten days passed, a total of a month passed, Yan Chenghou came back with the convoy, this time he brought back fifty carts of things, because he bought not luxury goods, so the money did not spend too much, the full count is only a thousand yuan, the price in the northwest is compared to Chang'an, it is really too cheap.

Yang Ze checked the goods, in addition to the daily necessities, he asked Yan Chenghou to buy a lot of tea, not good tea, but the most inferior kind of tea, not only old tea, but also broken, tea foam, even in the remote place of the northwest, tea foam is also the bottom of the goods, no one wants something.

In addition to tea foam, I also bought a lot of spices and coarse salt, as well as some inferior flour, although there were a lot of things, but it didn't cost much, Yan Chenghou swept away the goods of the major stores in the state.

Yan Cheng said: "Lord Yang, I handed over the official document to the Assassin Shi, and the Assassin said that you don't have to rush to see him, it's not too late to go when the spring opens, he didn't say anything else, just let you take care of the prince, for the safety of the prince, don't let him go out of the city, if something happens to the prince, you must send someone to inform him in time, but you must not let the prince out of the city, whether he voluntarily goes out of the city, or someone else takes him out of the city, no, he said this several times, and nothing else." ”

Yang Ze understood the meaning of this, to put it bluntly, the assassin history is to let him be optimistic about Li Yan, don't let Li Yan have any accidents, the accident refers to Li Yan can't leave Zhenxi, it's definitely not whether Li Yan will die, as for other assassins, he doesn't care, anyway, in this place in Zhenxi County, there is only one Li Yan to worry about, as long as he doesn't have an accident, it doesn't matter how many other things happen, a county where birds don't, the master of the assassin history won't take it to heart!

Yang Ze asked people to take out a bag of low-quality flour, and took some salt and spices, closed the door, and he began to study.

Zhenxi County is close to the grassland, and the grassland is short of salt, the bald people who eat beef and mutton all the year round will definitely have indigestion, then the tea brick will be very marketable, this business is very done, if it is done well, a tea brick and a piece of gold, it is possible, the most critical thing, this business can only be done by him, and the monopoly business has always been the most profitable.

But how to make this thing of tea bricks, Yang Ze doesn't understand, even if he is a human being in two lives, but he has never seen tea bricks in any life, and he has to slowly explore it.

In the kitchen, Yang Ze first mixed the noodles, then added a lot of seasonings and salt to the noodles, steamed them in the pot, and made a pot of steamed buns.

Yang Ze was worried about this pot of steamed buns, and thought: "Am I looking in the wrong direction, that tea brick is actually quite simple, that is, use tea foam and salt to press together, press into the shape of a brick, when eating, break off a piece and soak it directly in water, just like Pu'er tea?" But how can the tea foam and salt be pressed together, they are all powdery things, and they will be scattered when pressed! ”

He couldn't figure out what to do, so he put things aside for a while, called Fu Bingrong, and said, "You go find some people and make all that coarse salt into powder, the finer the better!" ”

Fu Bingrong said in surprise: "Are they all powdered, that's a whole cart of coarse salt, hundreds of catties, but even if it's all powdered, it can't be sold as refined salt, and it can't fool others!" (To be continued......)
