He Zheng, the reborn woman

Chapter 284 Qin Hongyi Returns to Tongcheng
After handing over the things in his hand, Shen Lan began to vaguely mention them to Tao Mingyuan: "We need to store a lot of supplies to occupy Tongcheng, and the current money is not enough."

Tao Mingyuan nodded: "Tongcheng is remote, making it inconvenient to do business, and the products in Tongcheng are not rich."

"Then how do we accumulate money?" Shen Lan looked at Tao Mingyuan.

"We can make use of the strength of various places in Jiuyou to gather merchants, and then secretly transport them to Tongcheng. The remoteness of Tongcheng will be an advantage, which is just right for our large reserves."

"But it still won't work in a short time. Is there a faster way?" Shen Lan said with some embarrassment.

"Unless there are rare goods." Tao Mingyuan didn't hide anything.

"What strange goods?"

"Salt." Tao Mingyuan said directly, "The production of food is inevitable every year. Although the price of jewelry and emerald jade is extremely high, it is not a necessity in times of chaos. Salt is the hub, so the imperial court controls salt production."

"What if I have a lot of salt?"

Tao Mingyuan did not doubt Shen Lan's joke: "That is endless wealth. Besides, if you sell salt with small profits, it is also a blessing for the people."

"Okay, then I'll leave the marketing of Yan's to you." Shen Lan said directly, "Your Tao family has been in business for generations, and I believe you have your own connections."

"I wonder how many there are?" Tao Mingyuan asked tentatively.

"You can have as much as you want." Shen Lan said simply, although she didn't look at the salt mine again, judging from the situation at that time, there were definitely not many.

Tao Mingyuan calmed down a little. He only knew the mystery of Jiuyou all this time, but he never thought that Jiuyou's power would be so powerful, and the Palace Master was so courageous.

The news of the imperial court burning Xia City also came, but fortunately, it was similar to what she had guessed, and they did not continue to chase Tongcheng.

Tongcheng is not very far from Jingtan Village. Just when Shen Lan was about to occupy the town in the middle, Fu Yunxi had already sent someone to discuss it. She actually thought that she would go ahead. If she was an enemy of Fu Yunxi, she really couldn't handle it.

But she has a map here, although it is not very complete, but it is generally OK.After looking at the map, she also decided to occupy the two cities of Sichuan, Burma and Nanling, so that the three cities can be connected into one and have mountains as a barrier. The mountains are poor and the land is sparsely populated. joke.

But Shen Lan has her own plan. The former Great Northern Wilderness will become the Great Northern Cang. As long as there is land, she does not believe that life cannot be placed there.

However, Qin Hongyi never met another interception after he was rescued. He arrived in Tongcheng smoothly. When he looked up at the two big characters, he suddenly felt that things were different. Things have changed.

Shen Lan didn't organize to greet him, but the people in Tongcheng heard that King Qin was coming, and they all lined up to greet him. It's not that they really like it, but it's a habit. As long as there are important things, they can always mobilize their nerves.

Qin Hongyi looked at Shen Lan who was standing there waiting for him, and his heart felt hot. The unhappiness on the road disappeared immediately. They all lived in the yamen for the time being. The Qin family's old house is now occupied by others, and Shen Lan felt that Qin Hongyi didn't want to go back either. to that place.

When she saw that only Yan Hong was following Qin Hongyi, and Jiang Gumu and Minglang were gone, she felt a little lost. Could it be that something happened to them on the way, but Jiang Gumu's skill is quite good, how could it be...

Since they came out to meet Shen Lan, they would naturally not dress casually. When they met Qin Hongyi, they also saluted respectfully. No matter how close they were, these etiquettes were necessary. Treating each other like guests was not alienation, but a kind of respect for each other.

People on both sides saluted, Qin Hongyi led Shen Lan into the yamen, everything here did not move, Shen Lan had to wait for Qin Hongyi to come back to make the decision.

Yan Hong saw all this in his eyes, thinking that his worries were unnecessary, but the seeds of restlessness in Qin Hongyi's heart had already begun to germinate, and it was necessary for him to remind Shen Lan.

Because last time Shen Lan didn't know how to collapse the courtyard wall where he lived, and there would be many people around Qin Hongyi when he came back, so Shen Lan asked them to tidy up another yard. Fortunately, the backyard of the yamen is very big, big and small. There are more than a dozen courtyards, and Shen Lan found the big Yixin Garden in the middle to live in, but she renamed it Xitao Garden. Why does Yixin Garden sound a bit like a brothel?
"How's the injury?" Shen Lan hurriedly asked seeing that everyone else had retreated.

"It's almost done." Qin Hongyi directly stopped Shen Lan in his arms, and the feeling of holding her was very real.

Shen Lan didn't dodge either, because she also missed him very much: "I'm worried to death, saying that you are attacked again, and I can't leave."

"It's okay." Qin Hongyi hugged Shen Lan and walked inside.

"Your injury." Shen Lan got into Qin Hongyi's arms a little shyly.

"I said it's okay." Qin Hongyi whispered in Shen Lan's ear.

Shen Lan didn't get up for lunch, and after Qin Hongyi had eaten, he brought Zhu Gaoyuan to look for Situ Yuan. There were some things he wanted to discuss with Situ Yuan, and the first thing was the matter of conscription.

Shen Lan was really exhausted these days, she didn't wake up until the evening when Qin Hongyi teased her with his hair: "I'm so sleepy." She turned over and was about to continue sleeping.

"Get up and eat." Qin Hongyi lifted Shen Lan up.

"I'm really sleepy." Shen Lan hung on Qin Hongyi softly.

Qin Hongyi looked at Shen Lan with pity for a while, it seems that this time has really exhausted her: "Rest after eating."

"I'm so sleepy that I don't want to eat." Shen Lan closed her eyes and was going to sleep again.

"Xuan Ling, bring the food here." Qin Hongyi stopped Shen Lan and ordered.

"Okay, I'll get up." Shen Lan immediately looked good.

Qin Hongyi looked at her and laughed: "Eat here if you don't think about it."

"I got up." Although Shen Lan was still very listless, she managed to get up.

After simply putting on a coat, cleaning her face, and drinking a little warm water, Shen Lan started to eat. Recently, she has a good appetite, and she doesn't know that the new cook is good at cooking.

Yan Hong and Qing Yi lived in the same yard with them, but Yan Hong didn't come to eat with them today, the young couple, Xiao Bie Sheng and newly married, didn't he spoil the fun in the past?
She was relatively silent when eating, not because Shen Lan obeyed the old habit of not talking when eating or sleeping, but because she found that she was very hungry when she started eating, so she was busy eating.

Qin Hongyi was relieved seeing her appetite so good, he thought Shen Lan's lazy look just now was sick.

After the meal, Shen Lan wanted to go out for a walk. It was said that walking a hundred steps after the meal could live 99, so Qin Hongyi took her out.

"By the way, I saw your third brother." Shen Lan suddenly remembered.
