This kind of fresh fragrance is already king without unnecessary processing.

This year's heavy rain has caused the price of lake crabs to triple, and now it is a luxury in Shengyi, and ordinary people can't afford to touch it.

Compared with Yan Saburo's casualness, Xiao Mi is much more reserved, and her eating appearance is also very elegant. He ate two crabs and didn't forget to pick up the original question: "Your heartbreak is completely healed?"

"It's a lot better. Yan Saburo shook his head, "I still have to recuperate for a few months." ”

Xiao Mi smiled: "Can't be tired?" He subconsciously glanced at Chitose, who was slowly dismantling the crab. There was a little crab roe on her fingers, and she subconsciously sucked her fingertips.

"Well, you can't be tired. ”

After eating and drinking ginger tea, Yan Saburo asked about the life extension contract that Youlong Bureau was about to sell. Although Xiao Mi was sitting in the deep palace, he was well-informed, and as soon as he heard it, he said: "The Dragon Bureau has already offered a contract to enter the palace. ”

Yan Saburo was slightly stunned, so he told the Xuanguo Geely Chamber of Commerce about the auction of the age reduction contract, and then said: "It seems that the contracts taken out on both sides are not the same, and the contract that appeared in Shengyi has the function of 'reducing age', but here it says 'life extension'?"

Although age reduction and life extension are both making a fuss about lifespan, the effects are very different. The former makes people fifteen years younger, and if they are a woman in their thirties, they will immediately return to twenty-eight years; however, the so-called "longevity" may mean the extension of the existing life expectancy, and there may not be such a thing as "returning to youth."

Xiao Mi snorted: "The Dragon Bureau has received a total of two life extension contracts, one of which is dedicated to Lone, a piece of parchment written in red letters, and the other one, they plan to sell it." ”

People have taken the initiative to give him a copy of such a precious thing, so how can he be embarrassed to snatch the other one too?

Yan Saburo groaned: "I think I will sell it for a while." ”

"After the contract was delivered, Lone announced that the seller had entered the palace. Xiao Mi shook her head, "But the man is gone." The guards searched for a few days, but no one was seen. ”

This scene also happened in Xuanguo.

"It seems that the gods are very fond of finding people to gamble on their lifespan. Xiao Mi patted Yan Saburo on the shoulder, "Lone knows that you intend to go, but it's best to think twice." We still have a lot of time to spare, and we are not in a hurry. ”

It has been more than a year since Yan Sanlang returned to Weiwei, and Xiao Mi had already inquired about his illness from He Xiaoyuan and knew that his life had been reduced by at least fifteen years because of heartache. Yiyan's character at the beginning of the year, even if he is still young, he must take precautions.

Xiao Mi grabbed Yan Saburo and chatted for a while, and then drove back to the palace.

Chitose walked back with Yan Saburo before saying, "He didn't finish his words." ”

"Hmm. Yan Saburo also saw it, "Looking at the rise of his heart, he probably encountered a lot of trouble." ”

As the center of this country, the monarch has to face all kinds of problems all day long. Xiao Mi has been sitting in that position for nearly six years, and he has been carefully taught by Han Zhao and Li Helin, and the dazzling problems that others see are as common to him.

Is it because of the flooding of the Lanjiang River?

Of course, a flood of this magnitude is a big problem, but it is not the first time that human beings have lived with rivers for so many years, and it is not the first time that the Lanjiang River has flooded. As long as the monarch gives a task, his own officials will deal with it.

......

In the afternoon, Li Kailiang asked to see him.

Seeing this capable subordinate, Yan Saburo was also in good spirits: "Sit." ”

There are countless big and small events happening in Shengyi every day, and he has slept for half a year, and he has already left a lot of homework to make up.

Li Kailiang's face was extremely solemn, and he first explained the progress of the industry he had taken care of on behalf of Yan Saburo in the past six months. "Two good news, one bad news. ”

Yan Saburo didn't think about it and said, "Let's talk about the good news first." ”

The first piece of good news was the successful completion of the Swallow Tower.

Yan Saburo went out to eat last night, and on the way he saw the swallow tower in the night.

This tower was originally destroyed by Si Wenrui's attack on Wei Tianzi. After Xiao Mi punished Si Wenrui, he handed over the project of rebuilding the Swallow Tower to Yan Sanlang.

In the blink of an eye, more than two years had passed, and the Swallow Tower had been repaired while he was sleeping.

After the reconstruction, the Swallow Pagoda has seven floors and is an astonishing 21 zhang tall, almost twice as high as before. It itself is built on the slope, and its solemnity, magnificence, and magnificence make every visitor deeply shocked.

After nightfall, the tall figure of the swallow tower is still hidden in the darkness, but each layer of eaves will be lit up with wind lanterns, reflecting the colorful carved plaques, just like Qiongge. This has become one of the most popular new scenery in Shengyi.

For Yan Saburo and Li Kailiang, the successful completion of the Swallow Tower indicates that their team has the ability to take over and complete complex projects.

"Yay. Yan Saburo did not hesitate to praise, and then poured a hot tea for Li Kailiang with his own hands.

After he returned to Shengyi from Taoyuan, the Swallow Tower project had a more powerful boost - Bai Chenghuan, a subordinate of King Sheng, specialized in engineering construction, from design to cost, and construction supervision were all experts. It is even more rare that this person is also proficient in feng shui physiognomy, and in the past, the mansion of the victorious king in the capital and the camp behind the battlefield were designed and supervised by him.

He was also one of the nineteen people who followed Yan Saburo out of Taoyuan - Yan Saburo was moved by Huo Dongjin after hearing about his ability, and he lobbied hard, and finally persuaded him to go out of the mountain.

Bai Chenghuan did not disappoint him, and after arriving in Shengyi, he began to improve the design and improve the progress, so that the completion of the delicate project of the Swallow Tower was four months earlier than expected.

"The second good news is that the Grand Canal, which flows through the Fenglai Mountains, opened the last ten miles five months ago, and it is now considered to be fully opened. Li Kailiang then said, "It has been renamed Fenglai Canal, connecting the Qingsha River in the north and Fengchao Lake in the south. After the water body is opened, the goods from the north can be transported to the south. If it weren't for the natural disaster, the waterway would have been getting busier and busier, and it would have been merchants with a keen sense of smell who came to dig the first pot of gold. ”

The Qingsha River is also a tributary of the Lanjiang River.

Yan Saburo knows that the opening of this Grand Canal is not easy to come by. The forcible digging of the canal was also regarded as one of the tyranny of the avant-garde king, which caused the country to boil and the people to regency, and finally triggered the Fenglai Mountain Uprising, which shook his rule. After Xiao Mi became the monarch, he continued to dig, and encountered great resistance in the government and the opposition, and many old ministers persuaded him to learn from his brother's lesson.

At that time, the defense of the country had just ended the war, the treasury was tight, and the words "digging the canal" were taboo in themselves.

However, Xiao Mi showed the courage of the young king, resisted public opinion, and persevered to the end, of course, this process was not all smooth sailing, and a lot of troubles were settled before and after.
