Datang: My father is the head bodyguard

Yuchi Baoqi saw with his own eyes that the lid of the can was finished, and he felt relieved.

Songtsen Gampo came suddenly.

"Grand Governor, the King's Chamberlain. Something big has happened. People in Chang'an City suddenly started buying our wolfberry in large quantities for some unknown reason. Governor, you said this is a tonic, but you didn't bring much. What should we do now?"

Yuchi Baoqi thought for a while: "I'll have someone send a report to the Construction Corps to see if they can send another batch over. This is a big deal!"

Wang De came to show his respect: "It must be that when the ministers came to the Manlu Hall to discuss matters today, they saw His Majesty drinking."

Yuchi Baoqi and Songtsen Gampo suddenly understood: "No wonder so many people suddenly came to buy it. I had to buy a limited amount per person to be able to withstand it."

"There's nothing we can do, so let's do this. Tell them to squeeze the juice of next season's wolfberry to make puree. Anyway, glass bottles and can lids will be enough by then. Next year, just like cotton, we will use more wolfberry."

Yuchi Baoqi rubbed his hands, hey hey hey, another gain.

There was one more person on the carriage. Songtsen Gampo was fine when he came and could not go back.

Wang De asked first just in case: "Mr. British, are we going back to the house now?"

Yuchi Baoqi thought for a while: "I'm going to the mansion, but it's the Duke Yi's mansion. We have to wait for the workers to change the wheels first."

Songtsen Gampo and Wang De were surprised to see that the black wheels could not be made out of.

Yuchi Baoqi looked at a lot of people busy and thought that he had to have the jack made.

"Hang a spare tire on the back of the frame for me, Master. In case it breaks down on the road and has to be replaced."

Finally, I replaced the carriage tires, and when the time comes, I will add shock absorbers and it will be completely stable.

Wang De first put Yuchi Baoqi on the carriage, then put Songtsen Gampo on it, patted the one-armed coachman on the shoulder, and climbed up himself.

The carriage started moving smoothly, and soon the two people on board noticed something was different.

"Mr. British, this carriage is much quieter. Is that what the wheels are for?"

"Captain, this speed seems to be much faster."

Yuchi Baoqi also felt the carriage with new wheels: "This is the benefit of rubber tires. They make less noise, are faster, and have better grip. Because they are soft, they are better on hard cement roads."

"When the shock absorbers are installed, the carriage will no longer be so bumpy. In the past, the carriage would shake so hard that people would faint when traveling far away."

"Ah, when the time comes to make it and sell it, it will be another source of income. The money you can make in this world is really too much! Hahahaha!"

Wang De was no longer surprised by Yuchi Baoqi's behavior, but Songtsan Gumbo was stunned for a moment. Does the Governor of Songzhou City like making money so much?

When the three of them arrived at Duke Yi's Mansion, Songtsen Gampo was a little reserved. He had been exposed to a lot of etiquette recently at Yuchi Baoqi's Mansion.

"Captain, have you sent a message to Duke Yi? I haven't seen you tell the housekeeper in the past few days."

Yuchi Baoqi glanced at him: "I have loved to run to my Uncle Qin since I was a child. When I come here, I still hand out posts? Isn't this a curse?"

Sure enough, the concierge opened the door as soon as he saw Yuchi Baoqi, and the boy who informed the housekeeper immediately ran in to report the news.

Wang De also lamented that the British Duke was really the most carefree and unrestrained person in the world.

"The rules are for outsiders to see. As for people, the most important thing is to be happy."

The housekeeper was not as quick as Qin Huai and rushed out directly.

"Brother Baoqi, the king's servant. Who is this?"

Songtsan Gampo bowed and said, "Your Majesty, Songtsan Gampo, is your newly appointed governor of Luoye City. I have met Mr. Qin."

Qin Huaidao understood: "I have long heard that the governor of Luoye City is very impressive, but now I see that he is indeed a talented person."

Then he turned to Yuchi Baoqi and said, "Father is waiting in the main hall, please."

Qin Shubao's condition is not very good, so the blame has to come out.

Seeing the worry in everyone's eyes, Qin Qiong put down the tea cup in her hand and spoke slowly.

"Loss of energy and blood, it happens every winter. Don't worry about it, I know my body well."

Old soldiers never die, they just wither. This calm look is really touching.

Yuchi Baoqi thought about it and decided not to mention treatment now that there were so many people.

"I'm going to give Huai Dao an errand to go to Nanyang to do trade, and to inquire about some news there. I heard that the Harsha Dynasty is a little bit ready to move. Although His Majesty puts the focus on the East Turks, you always have to prepare for a rainy day. of."

Duke Yi Guo Qin Qiong said: "I have no objection to him going to sea. I'm just afraid that he won't be able to handle your affairs, and I'm afraid that he will break your trust."

"It doesn't matter. I will send a steward to go with him. However, the Tianwei Army cannot move. We can only use Duke Yi's personal troops. I'm sorry."

Qin Qiong nodded: "This is natural. The entire Duke's Mansion will be handed over to him in the future. Going to work for you this time is just an experience."

Qin Huaidao's eyes were red when he heard this, and his fists were clenched tightly.

It was heartbreaking to hear Qin Qiong almost arranging her own funeral arrangements.

Yuchi Baoqi saw that after the conversation was over, there were outsiders present, and it was not easy to stay here for dinner, so he prepared to leave.

Qin Huaidao sent the three of them out of the house. Yuchi Baoqi asked them to get on the carriage first, while he stayed to say a few words to Qin Huaidao.

Knowing that the two of them had grown up together, after going through the situation just now, they would always offer a few words of comfort.

Yuchi Baoqi went to the notebook and wrote on the paper "He is rescued, please wait for now." Then he folded the paper and handed it to Qin Huaidao.

"You will go to sea before your father goes to the grassland. I will go to Luoyang with me tomorrow to get familiar with your helpers. I won't be back. I will wait for the dragon ship to be built and load the goods to set off."

"Brother, of course I won't let you have any worries. Just show your father what is written on this paper and he will understand."

Qin Huaidao only thought that he was explaining what he wanted to do, and comforted him along the way.

Qin Huaidao just nodded silently, fearing that he would choke and cry as soon as he opened his mouth.

After watching Yuchi Baoqi get into the car, Qin Huaidao returned to the main hall and looked at his old father, finally unable to hold back.

"Dad! This... this is... this is a letter from Brother Bao to you. Let's ask the imperial doctor to take a look at it! No! Please ask Old God Sun!"

Qin Qiong did not speak, but gently took away the tear-stained letter from Qin Huaidao's hand.

"Life has its own length, and people have life and death. There is nothing we can do about this matter. When dad finishes plowing the grassland and earns you the last honor, you don't have to work so hard in the future."

Qin Huaidao cried louder when he felt the gentle palm caressing his head.

Qin Qiong read the words on the letter and did not believe that there could be any help. She only took it as Yuchi Baoqi's words to comfort herself.
