After Li Tai left, Xie Hua'er came out and asked curiously: "Can you make salt?"
"Of course, I admire you very much." Zhang San said proudly.
"You know so much, is this the salt you made?" Xie Hua'er took the remaining white salt and was shocked in her heart.
"Not bad, our family will eat this salt from now on, and all the green salt will be replaced." With better salt, those green salts will naturally have to be replaced.
Xie Hua'er twisted some salt grains and put it in her mouth. She found that the salt was of high quality and did not have that astringent taste. She watched Zhang San instructing people to put the remaining salt ore and said to herself: You still have
How many skills are there that I don’t know?
Aunt Song was the one who loved the replacement of salt at home. She had never seen such snow-white salt particles in her entire life, and she was so impressed by her own lordship.
However, Zhang San still ordered everyone in the mansion not to spread the news that he could make salt, so as not to cause trouble.
…
"What? Did you extract the mineral salt into edible refined salt?" In the palace, Li Shimin asked in surprise after listening to Li Tai's story.
"Yes, Father, today I brought up the shortage of salt at the border with Uncle Zhang County. Uncle Zhang said he could make salt. At first, I didn't believe it. Then I made a bet and lost him a salt mine. Here is
The refined salt extracted from that mineral salt today.”
Li Tai told what happened, and also told him that he lost a bet at the salt mine.
When Li Shimin saw the refined salt that Li Tai took out, he was so surprised that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear.
This was really a pillow delivered to me right after I fell asleep. When I was worrying about border issues, I didn't expect that my child would deliver such good news.
"Is this salt really extracted from mineral salt?" Li Shimin still asked in disbelief.
"Yes, Father, I asked the guards to find the mineral salt. Then I was involved in the entire extraction process. These are extracted from the mineral salt." Li Tai replied.
"Okay! Okay! Are you looking for someone to try it?" Li Shimin was very concerned about this matter, praised it twice, and then asked.
"I have asked the guards to eat first, and there is nothing abnormal. I also asked the imperial doctor to check the physical condition of the guards, and there is no problem."
"That's great! Huh! Let's see who can stop me from destroying the Turks this time!" Li Shimin snorted coldly. In the past few days, he had been subjected to a lot of jealousy from bureaucrats of aristocratic families.
"Qier, you have made great achievements this time, and I will reward you well. Have you learned the method of making salt?" Li Shimin asked.
"This child has learned it, and Uncle Zhang has written down the steps and will send them to the border when the time comes. I think the salt crisis will be over safely." Li Tai said with a smile.
"Don't let this matter leak out yet. I want to see how those people are going to fight me." Li Shimin explained.
"My child understands." Li Tai replied respectfully,
"By the way, Father, what about my promise to give Zhang San a salt mine?"
Li Shimin laughed when he heard this and said: "It's just a salt mine. That guy contributed this method of making salt. He didn't want to get promoted to a high position, but he wanted a salt mine. He really didn't ask for advancement."
Li Tai replied: "Today, my child was chatting with Uncle Zhang. He said something that my child thought was very good. My father may understand what he meant after hearing it."
"Oh! What are you talking about?"
"If you live high in a temple, you will worry about your people; if you live far away from the rivers and lakes, you will worry about your ruler."
After Li Shimin heard this sentence, he suddenly felt that it was wonderful. He recited it twice and sighed: "It's a pity that the boy is lazy by nature and doesn't like the disputes in the court. Let's leave it like this!"
…
Today Oris got the goods he needed from Xingsheng Trading Company as he wished, and left Chang'an with a caravan full of goods.
Today is already the third day of February, and his wedding date is getting closer and closer. Zhang San was urged by his younger sister and Xiaoyu to walk out of the house and go to Chang'an to buy some things he would need on the wedding day.
Originally, Sister-in-law Li and the others were helping Zhang Luo, but Xiaoyu and Xiaomei also wanted to go shopping in Chang'an, so they took Zhang San with them, who was unwilling to go out.
Women seem to have a natural instinct for shopping. The two girls, Xiaomei and Xiaoyu, held their arms together and went into this store to take a look, and then ran to that shop to take a look.
Zhang San and Zhang Fu were following behind like tool men, each carrying large and small bags.
"I asked you two, are you tired? It's almost noon, should we go have a meal first?" Zhang San's stomach growled. Seeing that the two of them didn't seem to have enough shopping, he couldn't help but said.
.
"Ah! It's already noon! Let's go find a place to eat." The little girl said after realizing it.
"What do you want to eat? I'm treating you today."
"I don't know either, third brother, it's up to you to decide!" Xiaomei and Xiaoyu looked at each other. They were not familiar with Chang'an, so naturally they didn't know what to eat.
"Okay, let's go to Qujiang Tower. The food there is pretty good." Zhang San said.
"Okay! Third brother, I didn't feel hungry even if you didn't tell me, but now that you tell me, my stomach starts to growl." The younger sister cried, covering her stomach.
"You! You are still a girl. You are so loud and you don't know how to restrain yourself." Zhang San said angrily.
The little sister stuck out her tongue and chatted non-stop with Xiaoyu, ignoring Zhang San.
When the four of them came to Qujiang Tower and found a private room to sit down, Zhang Fu originally thought that he could just go downstairs and eat something by himself, but Zhang San didn't take him seriously and asked him to stay and eat together.
, just add a pair of chopsticks on the left and right.
This move made Zhang Fu very flattered. He had been following Zhang San for so long and knew his master's temper, so he did not leave and stayed to have dinner with him.
Zhang San ordered some of the signature dishes here and a bottle of wine.
"You guys sit down for a while, I'll go out." Zhang San rubbed his belly and prepared to go to the toilet to empty his body.
After Zhang San went out, Xiaoyu and Xiaomei saw that the food had not been served yet, so they also walked out of the private room and stood in front of the railing, listening to someone talking about storytelling on the first floor.
At this time, Zheng Shide also came to the second floor for dinner with his friends. As soon as he arrived on the second floor, he saw two pretty women lying on the fence, talking and laughing.
That frown and smile deeply touched the hearts of Zheng Shide and others.
"Hey! There are two young ladies in front of you. Do you want to compete to see who can take down those two ladies?" A person next to Zheng Shide said with a smile.
"Of course it is Mr. Zheng." Another person complimented.
Zheng Shide laughed: "Brother, I will take down those two little ladies."
After saying that, he walked straight forward, and everyone behind him quickly followed.
"Sister Xiaoyu, that old man spoke so well!" the younger sister praised.
Before Xiaoyu could answer, a nightmarish and obscene laughter came over, making the little girl tremble. This voice?
