Chapter 59 Brine
Chen Qingyun's layout was very smooth. The only thing is that as the layout increases, the cash available in hand is not enough.
After thinking for a while, she decided to go to Prince Li's Mansion.
If you live a life again, it is hard to say anything else, but you can make a fortune with the prophet. As a daughter, she is not convenient for her to come forward. It is better to talk to King Li, and give her some dividends at that time, and it can be considered as repaying some of his kindness.
Who would think that the money was too much?
Moreover, what Chen Qingyun mastered was not an ordinary way to make money, but a salt mine.
I knew about this because Jiang Lin had the help of the General's Mansion in his previous life, and used her dowry and money to manage the workplace. He entered the Ministry of Works. His official position became higher and higher, and he also gained the wealth of participating in salt mining management.
Originally, her plan was to buy nearby mountains calmly. When the court discovered the salt mine, the government would pay for subsidies to purchase land, and this turnover would be twice the profit.
But there are still risks.
After all, this is a big event. Most of the salts are now sea salt, and the amount of well salt is quite rare. Mining salt mines is a major event that concerns the country's foundation. If you want to make a profit from it, you must be careful.
Now it can be done through King Li.
Perhaps because King Li helped her at the birthday party first and saved her life in the alley, Chen Qingyun had some indescribable trust in King Li.
When he arrived at Prince Li's Mansion, the servant heard that it was the second lady of Duke Chen's Mansion. After a while, an old butler with kind faced face came out.
When he saw Chen Qingyun, he smiled and couldn't see him: "Miss Chen is here, please come in quickly. The prince is in the study. I will take you to the flower hall first, have tea and some snacks, etc."
Chen Qingyun was a little puzzled by the butler's friendly attitude, but he couldn't help but relax: "Thank you, this is the thank you gift I brought to the prince. Please pass it on for me."
"No thanks, no thanks."
The old housekeeper was very happy. It was the first time that a woman had visited her home for so long. She was still such a generous and beautiful girl. It was great, really good.
After Chen Qingyun sat down, he hurried to ask the big kitchen to get some snacks that the girl liked.
When asked, he was stunned. The prince disliked sweets and snacks the most. In the huge palace, he couldn't find a decent plate of desserts for a moment.
The manager kicked a guard next to him on the butt, and blew his beard and scolded: "Why don't you hurry up and buy refreshments, and you need the most expensive ones, so you can only get half a stick of incense and get back."
The guard was mournful, how could he let him, a big man, buy snacks? But there was no way, he flew out and ran out.
Si Moli received the news, but unexpectedly, Chen Qingyun would take the initiative to come to the door. He was so stupid that he looked at whether his clothes were appropriate before leaving the study.
On the other hand, Chen Qingyun sat in the flower hall and waited for a while, and felt that the royal palace was really empty, as if he had not seen many servants along the way.
When Si Moli came, she saw her dazed in front of a pot of green ivy under the window.
The girl's skin is white and tender, and on her beautiful side face, under her long eyelashes are a pair of sleepy and confused eyes, as innocent and cute as a deer. She is wearing a light purple gauze today, and her head is just simple. I inserted two jade hairpins obliquely, but it looked more leisurely than at any time before.
Before he could speak, Chen Qingyun discovered his existence, hurriedly got up and bowed, and his expression returned to his usual cold and distant appearance: "Prince, I'm disturbing you. I'm here to thank you today."
Unexpectedly, Han Yu followed King Li and saw Chen Qingyun, a hint of joy appeared in his heart.
Did you come to pick him up?
But unexpectedly, Chen Qingyun's next sentence was: "I happened to have something to discuss with the prince. Can you ask the people around you to withdraw temporarily?"
Si Moli's eyes slid over doubts, but he nodded.
Han Yu looked sad, but when he saw Chen Qingyun smiled at him, pursed his lips, and retreated with the guards.
Pearl went out and closed the door.
There were only two people in the flower hall for a moment. Chen Qingyun looked at King Li beside him and looked at him up close. I have to say that King Li's face is really unique, as if it were carved from a flawless piece of jade, giving people a unique feeling. The noble and tranquil Chinese feel.
For a moment, she actually forgot what she wanted to say.
"What's the matter?"
Chen Qingyun suddenly came to his senses and cursed himself in his heart that he was still addicted to beauty at the critical moment. He mustered up the courage to speak: "That's right. When I was counting the land villa, I accidentally learned that I seemed to have found it on the mountain next to the nearby village. Brine, so…”
King Li is also a smart person. Knowing that this matter is important, he asked the key point directly: "Will that mountain belong to?"
"Uh, I've bought it."
Chen Qingyun decided to tell the truth.
A faint smile appeared in King Li's eyes, and he sighed in his heart, he was so alert and bold: "Can it be sure it's brine?"
"Yes, it was also the villagers who accidentally discovered that the well water was particularly salty, but it did not attract attention. I sent someone to get water and dry it, and found that there was indeed salt after drying it, so I determined that eight out of ten were brine."
Chen Qingyun didn't say it very carefully, but she knew that it was still the precious black brine, which is the brine with the highest salt content.
"I got it, but why did you tell me?"
Chen Qingyun lowered his head and smiled: "I am just a woman in a boudoir. At most, I want to gain some benefits from the side. The prince is in charge of the country's plan. This news only treats me as a gift to Buddha with flowers to repay my life-saving grace."
Si Moli was about to say something, but then she found a guard looking outside, and his expression suddenly became cold: "What's going on?"
The old housekeeper kicked the little guard viciously, picked up the snack and opened the door, and walked in with a smile: "Ms. Chen, this is the freshly released refreshment, it's hot, do you taste it? It's still early, you and the prince Talk slowly.”
Chen Qingyun had a good impression of this kind old housekeeper and smiled and said, "I really want to worry about you, thank you."
The old housekeeper was about to smile like a flower, and he hurriedly left again, leaving the space for the two of them.
Chen Qingyun picked up a peach blossom-like snack and took a small bite. The skin was crispy and soft inside, sweet but not greasy. It was so delicious that the eyes were shining.
When Si Moli saw her like a little rabbit chewing, her heart suddenly felt soft: "If you like it, take some back."
Chen Qingyun smiled embarrassedly. The two discussed some details and took Han Yu and Zhenzhu back home.
Unexpectedly, on the way back to the house, I encountered the meditation thoughts that had just separated from the third prince.
Chen Sisi couldn't help but feel jealous when she saw Chen Qingyun coming out of Prince Li's mansion. Thinking of King Li's appearance as a celestial being.
