Start by scolding the empress

Chapter 171

Simply out of sight and out of mind.

Chen Yi was careful about the empress, and Chen Yi also guessed a little bit.

Anyway, the final winner is Chen Yi, so why should Chen Yi push him too hard.

Chen Yi is very envious of this kind of treatment.

To be honest, for such a long time, the only person who has been able to take a break in the market is Chen Yi, and he is still aboveboard.

Thinking about how they have been working continuously for so long, except for the few times of repairing in a month, how can they usually have time to rest? Chen Yi is really different.

In less than half a year, Chen Yi has taken about four or five long vacations.

And each time is at least two or three days, it can be said that the envious eyes of these ministers are red.

Chen Yi didn't know, because his vacation was enviable. After returning to his house, he really enjoyed the vacation. Since Chen Yi moved into this new courtyard, he has been busy all the time.

Now that he is resting, Chen Yi is in the mood to decorate his yard, and the happiest person is Cao Bo.

Uncle Cao watched Chen Yi grow up, and seeing Chen Yi working so hard every day, Uncle Cao naturally felt sorry for him, but Uncle Cao also knew that many people who wanted such a chance hadn't had the chance yet.

So naturally I won't say anything.

But it does not hinder the various measures that Uncle Cao has prepared in the past few days.

Chen Yi used to stay in the Ministry of Industry all day long, and basically didn't eat breakfast and dinner in the mansion. He just came back to sleep. Of course, Uncle Cao couldn't help it. Now that Chen Yi can stay in the mansion, it's different.

On the first day of Chen Yi's vacation, he naturally slept until he was full. When Chen Yi woke up, Uncle Cao, who heard the noise outside, brought the prepared supplements into the room with Kai Kuo.

Kai Kuo was the entourage that Chen Yi bought before, and at the same time he had to take care of Uncle Cao and help out.

Chen Yi has always been two points and one line before, so naturally he didn't need any followers, so he opened up, and since he bought it, he has been by Cao Bo's side.

It was also the first time to serve Chen Yi after being bought back for so long.

Sitting on the bed, Chen Yi looked blankly at the tonic that Uncle Cao handed over, and asked suspiciously, "What is this?"

"This is for adults to replenish their body. Of course, during this period of time, you will go out early and return late. You must be exhausted and you will not be able to eat well. If you continue like this, your body will definitely not be able to bear it. You should drink quickly, and the cooking is ready. , get up and eat."

Chen Yi didn't refuse after listening, and just drank the soup.

As a tonic, there must be many medicinal materials in it, and the taste can be imagined, and it must not be much better.

In addition, Chen Yi is a modern person, and he usually doesn't drink these supplements at all, so Chen Yi almost vomited this thing when he took it, but he saw Uncle Cao looking at him kindly.

Chen Yi had no choice but to bite the bullet and swallowed. Then he squeezed his nose, closed his eyes, and gulped it down. It can be said that he swallowed with all his might, without daring to stop at all.

Seeing Chen Yi like this, Uncle Cao was very satisfied, so Chen Yi stayed together more, blinked his mouth, and immediately began to wash, trying to get rid of the smell in his mouth.

And this was just the beginning, after lunch, Uncle Cao took out another bowl of supplements.

Chen Yi didn't need to look, he knew what it was as soon as he smelled it, his facial features immediately wrinkled together, and looked at Uncle Cao pitifully, hoping to impress Uncle Cao, so that he would not be allowed to drink such a nasty thing.

Uncle Cao was very talkative in the past, but this time he was unexpectedly firm.

Chen Yi drank another bowl of so-called tonic. At night, when Chen Yi saw Uncle Cao coming over with the bowl, Chen Yi subconsciously wanted to run away, and Chen Yi did the same.

"My lord, this is not a tonic. It's a sweet soup. The doctor said that you can't drink too much of this tonic in a day. Two bowls are just right. Don't worry, my lord. I will continue to prepare supplements for you tomorrow."

When Chen Yi heard this, he wanted to kneel down to Uncle Cao.

Thinking of him, Chen Yi, he was able to scold the Empress angrily at the top, avoid death in prison at the bottom, blackmail the second prince of the Liao Kingdom before, and secretly master Chen Xianshi in the Alchemy Pavilion later, but he was caught by this little tonic.

Think about it, it's just a tear of sadness.

Chen Yi immediately shook his head and refused, and corrected Cao Bo's thinking very righteously, and promised loudly that he would definitely pay attention to his body and food in the future, so as not to make himself too tired,
After explaining it like this, it took more than half an hour before Uncle Cao gave up and continued to feed him supplements.

Chen Yi breathed a sigh of relief.

Chen Yi has not been completely idle for the past three days. Considering that he has so much money in his hand, Chen Yi simply puts it here, which can only attract dust.

So Chen Yi secretly took 100 million taels of silver notes and handed them to Uncle Cao, asking him to buy some Zhuangzi, or shops, under his own name.

At first, Uncle Cao refused. Chen Yi explained that he is now an official of the imperial court, and he cannot have any shops or Zhuangzi under him.

Anyway, Uncle Cao is someone close to him, so putting it with Uncle Cao is equivalent to his own things.

After Chen Yi's explanation, Uncle Cao agreed, and promised that each other would do this cleanly and beautifully without attracting anyone's attention. Uncle Cao also felt that Chen Yi's subordinates were too poor.

Now that Chen Yi is finally willing to plan for himself, Uncle Cao is of course doing his best.

This money was not given to the empress, but the 600 million taels of silver left by Chen Yi in private.

Chen Yi's plan was not entirely for himself. After all, it is very easy for money to generate money. It is impossible for Chen Yi to wait until the money in his hand is used up before thinking of a way, or he will fall into a passive state.

Chen Yi felt that anyway, he would not keep the drinks after the operation of these shops, they were all saved for the common people, and it would be better if he could save more.

In addition, Chen Yi did not intend to help the empress stay with the 3909 million taels of silver that the empress left there.

Chen Yi was worried that after the Great Wu Kingdom, there might be other things besides drought and floods.

Under these circumstances, what is most lacking is food. If such a time really comes, if the money is used to buy food, not to mention the high price, it will be a drop in the bucket.

So Chen Yi planned to take advantage of the end of the autumn harvest, and then take advantage of the abundance of food to harvest more.

Anyway, if the food is stored, as long as it is preserved carefully, it can be stored for many years.

The big deal is that if you sell it in the end, you won't lose money anyway. There is no special secret in what Chen Yi did, but of course it will not be noticed.

Chen Yi first rented a large granary, and then bought a lot of grain one after another. Chen Yi didn't buy the best ones, but the people who planted them could eat enough to fill their stomachs, and the taste was not bad.
