Tang Dynasty: The poisonous scholar in the Eastern Palace, please abdicate and let the wise one take

Chapter 85 High risk, high reward, head to Suzhou!

As the saying goes, food and fodder must be sent before troops move forward.

Since I have decided to go to Suzhou, I naturally have to make full preparations for the trip.

Su Chen thought about it and called Su Wang.

"What are your orders, son?"

"How many medicinal materials are left for making the soap this time?"

"The exact number has not been calculated, but the total number should be quite large."

Su Chen had specifically ordered the making of the medicated soap, so Su Wang naturally did not dare to neglect it.

Yes.

In addition to the prepared medicated soaps, there are also a lot of medicinal materials piled up in the warehouse.

Su Wang: "In addition to the herbs we have, Duke Du has some more. Do you want to take these herbs to Suzhou?"

Su Chen smiled and nodded.

Su Wang: "I ordered people to prepare the herbs and send them to Suzhou with you, young master."

Su Chen shook his head and said, "Just send it to Changshu County."

Suzhou has already suffered a severe flood, and it would be easy for someone to target you if you send anything there.

Su Wang thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll arrange it right away."

Su Chen leaned back in his chair and stopped thinking.

Soap can solve hygiene problems, but it cannot fill your stomach.

Li Er should be prepared. If not...

Su Chen suddenly opened his eyes and a cold light flashed in his eyes. That was the best thing that could happen.

"Jin Yong!"

"What are your orders, son?"

"You go ahead and go to Suzhou to gather information, and then open a small grocery store in Suzhou under your own name."

"what?"

Jin Yong scratched his hair and said, "Sir, you can let me fight and kill people, but I don't understand business!"

“Just buy low and sell high.”

Su Chen smiled and said, "It's not a difficult thing. If you meet a poor person, then you can earn a little less money. In the end, you won't lose too much."

Jin Yong nodded hesitantly, "Then I'll leave now?"

"Go."

……

The Palace of the King of Shu.

A servant walked in quickly, "Your Highness, Sun Qiang from the Prince's Residence sent some soaps, saying that it was an agreement between Su Chen and Your Highness, so he sent it in advance."

Li Ke smiled, nodded and asked someone to bring the soap.

soon.

Various kinds of soaps, sulfur soaps, and medicated soaps were neatly placed in front of Li Ke.

Different smells gathered together, constantly impacting Li Ke's nasal cavity.

Judging from the types and quantities of these soaps, Su Chen must have put in a lot of effort.

but.

Compared with the scented soaps used by girls at home, Li Ke cares more about sulfur soap and medicated soap.

Can it really repel mosquitoes?
At this time.

A gust of fragrant wind came.

"Oh, my Lord, where did these soaps come from?"

Princess Yang put down the ginseng soup in her hand, walked forward with a happy face, and looked at the soap curiously.

She was already aware of the reputation of the soap.

This time, when he followed Li Ke back to Chang'an, he was also concerned about this thing.

"This was sent by Su Chen from the Prince's Residence."

Li Ke glanced at her, walked aside and picked up the ginseng soup.

Concubine Yang picked up the pink soap with a smile, then looked at the soaps of other colors and said in a tender voice, "My Lord, would you like to give these soaps to me?"

"You like it? Then take it."

Li Ke waved his hand, but when he saw Concubine Yang was greedy and ordered people to take away all the soaps, his face darkened, "Leave the sulfur soap and medicinal soap behind."

"Your Majesty..."

"You can dispose of the other soaps as you wish."

"……Yes."

Concubine Yang pursed her lips in reluctance.

These soaps that I have never seen before must be new products from Taiziju. How could the prince not allow me to use them?

Yang Fei, who left with the soap, quickly contacted her father.

"This time Brother Su ordered Sun Qiang to deliver the things in advance. It is very likely that he will go to Suzhou with Brother to provide disaster relief."

Li Ke touched the teacup and thought carefully. Although disaster relief in Suzhou was not a difficult task, it was a tough job.

If he did well, the prince would be worthy of the throne and act like His Majesty. If he did not do well, the civil officials would have something to say.

Even if he wanted to help, he was about to leave Chang'an City and head for his fiefdom, which would easily give people a chance to criticize him.

I don't know if my brother is ready.

……

Luo's house.

A servant hurriedly came to Roshan with a letter.

"Master, please take a look at the letter Xie Lisi sent to you urgently."

Expedited delivery?
Roshan frowned, having a bad feeling in his heart.

Could it be that we have run into the minions of the merchants from the Arab Empire again? ?

Open the letter and take a look.

Roshan's eyes widened.

Under the attack of Wang Xuance and others, the four or five hundred desperate criminals could not even hold out for a stick of incense before they were defeated and fled.

Among them, more than fifty desperadoes were captured alive, but at Wang Xuance's order, they were all beheaded!

Finally, Xie Lisi gave his own opinion.

“…This is an elite force!”

terrible.

Roshan rubbed his head. This letter brought him a lot of pressure.

The safety of the goods is good, but the fact that the merchant caravan is guarded by elite soldiers is a bad thing!

He just came here to make money, and to improve the relationship between the two sides and do something helpful to the motherland, but he had no intention of getting involved in such a beheading thing.

Thinking back on the big and small events that had happened in Chang'an City during this period of time, Roshan felt as if he had boarded a pirate ship.

"uncle."

"You came quite quickly."

Roshan glanced at A Luohan who was approaching and handed the letter to him with a smile. A Luohan took the letter with a grin and read it, then said, "Uncle, it seems we have met an extraordinary person this time."

“But it’s also dangerous.”

"Didn't my uncle always tell me that doing business requires high risk and high returns?"

"..."

Roshan looked at A Luohan speechlessly.

He found that the longer he stayed in Chang'an City, the more A Luohan looked like Tang Jiazi.

"Uncle, we should inform Randy of this good news, right?"

"...?"

Randy has been thrown into jail because of false accusation.

If you go to see him now and tell him that all the desperate criminals you hired are dead...

"You've learned bad things."

"It's all thanks to my uncle's good teaching."

"..."

Roshan shouted, "Someone come."

"In my name, send an invitation to Master Su Chen, inviting him to attend the banquet tonight."

Done.

Roshan straightened his clothes, stood up and walked out.

"Where is uncle going?"

"Of course, we're going to visit our old friend Randy."

……

The flood in Suzhou damaged many houses, causing the entire court to be busy.

Li Chengqian, who was entrusted with the imperial mission, was naturally very busy, but he was not overwhelmed.

after all.

There are many capable people in the East Palace.

They can help Li Chengqian deal with these matters very well.

As for Su Chen, who was going to accompany them, he had no pressure at all.

To control water.

There are so many successful cases, just copy them.

How could there be a problem?

Therefore, compared with Li Chengqian and others, Su Chen is undoubtedly the most relaxed one.

Until this afternoon.

Sun Qiang came to Su Chen with a happy face, "Sir, Wang Xuance and the others are back!"

"Oh?"

Su Chen was shocked, "Where is it?"

"Son!"

Wang Xuance and others came over with smiles.

Su Chen took a quick look and found that, good, no one was missing.

Although several people were injured, judging from their mental state, it didn't seem to be serious.

"well done."

Su Chen patted Wang Xuance on the shoulder and said, "It can be seen that you have gained a lot this time."

Wang Xuance smiled and nodded.

This trip to protect the merchants was undoubtedly the first test of everyone's fighting power, and the result was very successful.

"How does it feel?"

Su Chen turned his gaze to Xue Li, who took a deep breath and said, "Thank you for your concern, everything is fine."

Su Chen raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect Xue Li to answer like this. When his gaze turned to Wang Xuance, Wang Xuance smiled and nodded slightly.

"It's good to be back safely."

"You guys go down and rest first. I'll have someone check your health and then I'll reward you based on your merits."

Everyone: "Thank you, sir."

Xue Li: "Sir, I heard you are going to Suzhou this time?"

Su Chen nodded.

Xue Li: "Can I accompany you?"

Su Chen pondered, his eyes sweeping over some guards who were eager to try, "Okay, you guys take a rest first, and I'll choose someone to go with you later."

"Yes!"

Xue Li and others left, but Wang Xuance stayed.

Wang Xuance described in detail the troubles he encountered on this trip and the changes in Xue Li.

Su Chen smiled and nodded, "Okay, you guys have worked hard for the trip, go down and have a rest."

Wang Xuance bowed and left.

Sun Qiang: "Sir, Brother Xue Li, do you want to redeem yourself by making amends for your crimes?"

Su Chen was speechless.

But when you think about it carefully, it does make sense.

But on this trip to Suzhou, with the prince being with them, there is naturally no need to worry about safety issues.

"Since he wants to follow, then follow him."

At this time.

A servant came in hurriedly and handed over the invitation.

"Sir, this is an invitation from the West Market merchant Rosshan. Please come tonight."

Su Chen took the invitation and said with a smile, "You see, they are quite well-informed."

Sun Qiang grinned.

The safe return of Wang Xuance and others is enough to prove that their goods were successfully delivered.

It is reasonable for Roshan to send someone to invite Su Chen to the banquet.

"Go tell him I'll be there in the evening."

……

Two days later.

The relief team bound for Suzhou left Chang'an City in a mighty manner under the escort of General Wuwei.

When he left Chang'an City, Cui Renshu, Cui Minghao and others were beheaded in public.

Upon hearing the news, Su Chen shook his head regretfully and said what a pity.

After lowering the car curtain, Su Chen lay down on the cushion.

"Let's go."
