Datang: My apprentice is Princess Changle

Chapter 513 A daunting task!
Chapter 513 Difficult task!
"Ah Choo." Qin Yang sneezed and knew that someone was talking about him.

"Could it be that Lizhi is thinking about me?" Thinking this way, Qin Yang began to write letters to his fiancée again.

He calculated that he might have to wait for a while before Li Shimin's reply came back.

During this period of time, Qin Yang needs to make a good plan and get all the preparations for the saltworks ready.

The Changlu Salt Field of later generations is still an ordinary place and has not been developed.

Qin Yang needs to find someone to secretly investigate this place.

He had explored it before, but at that time it was only to check whether this place could produce salt.

But now, he is asking people to survey all kinds of specific data about this place in advance and bring them back.

This matter can't be done too obviously, so that people can't notice it.

If Qin Yang sends his guards or officials, he must send his confidants.

But who are his confidantes and who are reused on weekdays? Although it is impossible for everyone outside to know, if someone pays attention, they may really know all of them.

Therefore, in order to keep it secret, he could not send his confidants there.

But if he sent someone who wouldn't be stared at, not a confidant, Qin Yang didn't feel at ease.

This is a big deal about Salt Lake!

He gave trust to the officials in Youzhou, but he must only trust his confidants when encountering major events.

It was in this situation that he thought of a suitable candidate.

Yu Chiliang.

Yu Chiliang is now only a first-year student in Youzhou No. [-] Academy. Because the academy often engages in some practice, some outstanding students are taken out for practice from time to time.

Pick out a few students and let them go out to perform tasks in the name of internships, and no one in the academy will be suspicious.

For the outsiders, the First Academy itself is indeed noticed by them, but what they pay attention to is only the establishment of this academy by King Youzhou, and the academy has been noticed because of King Youzhou.

As for the students inside?
Even if some people have spread the word, it is said that the people inside have been trained well.

But in this world, there are too many academies with a better reputation and a longer history than Youzhou No. [-] Academy.

Don't say that you can't count with one hand, maybe you can't count with both hands and feet.

In this case, those caring people will naturally not keep an eye on the students inside.

Unless someone has made a big event, it can attract some attention.

It was at this time that Qin Yang had someone call Yu Chiliang and several people in his dormitory to a manor.

Qin Yang was checking the construction of the new greenhouse in this manor, and these people were brought here, but they didn't attract many people's attention.

Even if they recognized these people as students from Youzhou No. [-] Academy, but because of this, they didn't have much curiosity.

In their place, several batches of students from Youzhou No. [-] College have come!

I guess I came here to study today!

Those young students seem to call this behavior a visit and study?

Visiting and studying, so to speak, is very appropriate.

Qin Yang asked these people to come over, and took them to check the shed one by one. After checking, he came to the warm room with them, and when they were eating hot pot together in the room, Qin Yang said: " You should have improved in school, right? You haven’t lost your skills, have you?”

Yu Chiliang and the others hurriedly said that not only did their skills not regress, they even improved!

Qin Yang nodded: "That's good, I called you here this time to give you a difficult task!"

Difficult task?
Guys, who's that guy in front of them?

This is the omnipotent king of Youzhou in their minds!

Does the king of Youzhou actually think that something is more difficult to complete?
It was a very difficult task for their instructor Qin. How could they, as disciples, complete it successfully?

Yu Chiliang didn't want to give it to the timid, but after hearing what Qin Yang said, he hesitated for a while before asking: "Instructor, what is the task you are talking about?"

"Salt Lake, do you know what it is?" Qin Yang asked without answering.

Of course they know what a salt lake is!

When a salt lake is discovered, it can be built into a salt farm!
A large salt lake can be built into a large salt farm, and a small salt lake can be built into a small salt farm. The size of the salt lake is very important.

Because salt is something that people must eat, so owning a salt lake and then owning a salt farm can make a person very rich.

Why can it be passed down from generation to generation?
Not only because the aristocratic families have knowledge, contacts, and power that ordinary people cannot have, but also have incomparably precious resources!
Most of them are extremely important resources that can make life and death very important to the community!
Therefore, the existence of the salt lake is no stranger to official children like Yu Chiliang.

Yu Chiliang didn't answer right away.

It wasn't because he couldn't explain the reasoning, but because he was very smart and immediately realized it.

"Instructor, did you discover the salt lake? In Youzhou?"

Reminiscent of the arduous task that the teaching officials had just mentioned, Yu Chiliang suddenly felt that this matter was almost inseparable, probably as he had guessed!
If you really found a super large salt lake in Youzhou, you must be careful and careful if you go to investigate the situation or collect relevant information.

Before the saltworks are fully completed, the location of the saltworks must never be known.

The reason why their Instructor Qin asked him this was because he wanted them to do these things related to the construction of the saltworks?

That's just doing some insignificant things, but it must be a lot of credit to be involved in such things!

These are still secondary. The instructor said that such an important matter is entrusted to them. Doesn't it mean that in the eyes of the instructor, they are the direct descendants of the instructor?

The more I think about it, the more I feel like this is the case.

Sure enough, when he asked, their instructor nodded and said, "Smart! There is indeed a huge salt lake in Youzhou. If a salt farm is built, it can at least keep producing salt for hundreds of years. Tang Zhongyuan is no longer expensive. Therefore, this matter must not be known to outsiders until it is completely completed. Although Youzhou is under my jurisdiction, it is not monolithic... I thought about it and thought you would do this , is more eye-catching.”

"What you have to do is to imprint this map in my hand deeply in your heads! Then, if you can't draw it out, when you go to find this salt lake, just follow the map you have memorized in your head. "

"If you can do this well, you will have a great contribution to the completion of the saltworks in the future."

Qin Yang patted them on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "Do it on the premise of saving your lives. If your life is in danger, protect yourself first."
