The poor man grows watermelon
Chapter 107 [Sweater Diplomacy]
Hoda is at it again.
His expression seemed a little strange, he didn't sit down once he entered the room, he just folded his arms and stared straight at Yu Feng.
Yu Feng subconsciously tightened his sweater and put on a defensive posture.
Huo Da rolled his eyes, and said in a strange way: "I'm just wondering, what kind of virtues did you accumulate in your previous life, why did all the good things happen to you?"
Yu Feng chuckled and said joyfully, "General, could something good happen?"
Huo Da threw the cloth bag on Yu Feng's back.
Yu Feng subconsciously took it in his hand, "What is it? It's so heavy!"
Huo Da ignored him, sat down at the low table by himself, and knocked on the table meaningfully.
Yu Feng pretended not to see it, and opened the cloth bag——
"Hey!" Yu Feng raised his head and looked at Huo Da, "General, where did you get so much money?"
In the cloth bag, wrapped in layers of linen, it is clearly a large pile of gold leaves!
"My cousin gave it to you."
"tips?"
"Yes."
"Your Majesty is so generous!" Yu Feng chuckled, and presented it to Su Fan as if offering a treasure.
Su Ye smiled, turned around and put it away.
Huo Da glanced at the two of them angrily, then tapped on the table again, "Is it possible to have a little eyesight?"
Su Ye picked up the teapot amusedly, poured a cup unhurriedly, and pushed it to his hand.
Huo Da held the teacup in his hand, glanced at Su Ye inadvertently, and asked strangely, "Are you getting fat?"
Su Ye paused, "Are you fat?"
He pinched his belly, it seemed to be a little bulging, but it wasn't the limp kind.
Yu Feng stepped between the two of them, cutting off Huo Da's sight, "Xiao Yezi is not fat, this is just right."
Huo Da cut his eyes, glanced at the furnishings in the house, and asked casually, "When will you move to a new house?"
"At the end of the month, burn the fire wall in two days, and move out when the house is completely dry."
Huo Da nodded and took a sip of tea.
Yu Feng said eagerly: "General, you haven't said anything good yet!"
"The battle in the north can no longer be fought."
Both Su Ye and Yu Feng were taken aback, then smiled and said, "It's indeed a good thing."
"However, what does this have to do with me?" Yu Feng wondered.
Huo Da put down the teacup, pretending to be serious and asked: "Do you know why there is no war?"
Su Ye thought for a while, and said in surprise, "Could it be because of the sweater?"
Huo Da paused, a trace of frustration flashed in his eyes.
Yu Feng was even more surprised, "Is it really because of the sweater?"
Huo Da gave a "hmm" and explained: "There are not many sweaters. After sending them over, they were distributed to the soldiers guarding the city. There was a conflict."
Su Ye quickly understood, "Did they see the sweater the city guard was wearing?"
Huo Da sneered, "Not only saw it, but also snatched it."
"That Tatar has a high status in the tribe. After he escaped, he ran back to the tribe and presented the sweater to the leader. I don't know the specifics. Anyway, within two days, the Tatar leader handed in his credentials and wanted to use their Cattle, sheep and horses exchanged food, pickles, and sweaters with us.
Huo Da pursed his lips and emphasized, "Especially the sweater."
Of course, Huo Da did not mention the specific details and the ruler's deep consideration, but the Tatar leader did change his attitude towards Da Yuan because he saw the sweater.
Yu Feng still felt a little unreal, "Is this all right? We've fought all these years in vain?"
Huo Da shook his head and smiled wryly, "Our ancestors have been knocked down for decades, and I don't know how many people have died. Who would have thought that a sweater would solve the problem!"
Su Ye refilled him with hot tea, and said in a warm voice, "This is a good thing, the general should be happy."
Huo Da nodded heavily, "Yes, it is indeed a good thing. If the transaction goes well, there will be no more wars in the northern border for at least five years... I just think of those soldiers who died..."
Somewhat out of control.
Yu Feng shook Huo Da's shoulder and said in a deep voice, "At least, today's soldiers and people don't have to follow in their footsteps."
Huo Da raised his head and looked at him with complicated eyes. After a while, he smiled and said: "You boy... you really have the ability."
Yu Feng scratched his head and smiled, he was still that bold and honest man.
"So, we need to make more sweaters, don't you?" Su Ye thought for a while, and then said, "Or... leave the sweater making method to His Majesty, and let the weaving workshop in the imperial city do it?"
Huo Da shook his head, and said bluntly: "You do it——this is what my cousin means."
Su Ye pursed her lips, a little puzzled.
Huo Da sighed and explained: "This matter is of great importance. The method of making the sweater must not be disclosed. The situation in the palace is complicated. It is safest for you to do it."
After thinking about it for a while, Su Ye understood the deep meaning, and then secretly rejoiced.
Thanks to the artificial way he adopted the assembly line from the beginning, in this way, as long as the various links are isolated later, and then find some trustworthy people.
Huo Da thought he was suspicious, so he comforted him awkwardly: "Ye, Xiaoye, don't worry, my cousin will send a Jingwei army to station near Bajiao Mountain soon to protect the safety of Yujia Village. "
Su Ye was taken aback, "Is this necessary? After all, Yujia Village is just an ordinary village..."
Huo Da looked at him, and said in a deep voice: "Oil press, bean paste, a manor with an output of [-] catties per mu, all kinds of advanced farm tools, plus dogwood peppers and sweaters that can affect diplomacy—Xiao Ye, what do you think? Is Yujia Village still an ordinary village in the eyes of outsiders?
Su Ye pursed her lips, feeling inexplicably confused.
Yes, he should have thought of this earlier.
A warm body leaned over beside him, gently hugging him into his arms.
The man comforted in a gentle voice, "Don't worry about Xiao Yezi, the people arranged by His Majesty are very reliable, and with them guarding you, you don't have to worry about being coveted."
Su Ye relaxed her body and hummed lightly.
Huo Da snorted, "Of course it's reliable!"
Su Ye looked back and said in surprise, "The leader of the garrison in Yujia Village...isn't he a general?"
Huo Da raised his eyebrows, and replied: "It is true that he was selected from the Huo family's army, and I am also the guard in name, but Donggua is usually guarding here."
Su Ye was surprised, "Isn't this too overkill?"
Huo Da raised his eyebrows, the words were pleasant to hear.
He added in a good mood: "My cousin made this arrangement not only for Yujia Village, but also for other things. It's not confirmed yet, but we will know in two days."
From his tone, Su Ye could tell that it must not be a trivial matter.
-
The capital, above the court.
Old Prime Minister Fan bowed and said, "Your Majesty, since the war in northern Xinjiang has not yet started, can the construction of the palace be put on the agenda?"
"What the Prime Minister said is very true." Xiao Heng nodded and said loudly, "Min Aiqing—"
"The minister is here." Min Zheng came out.
Xiao Heng had a Hexi smile on his face, "You have always been in charge of choosing the location of the palace, and I am very satisfied with the place Aiqing chose, thanks for your hard work."
Min Zheng bowed and said respectfully, "It is my duty to serve His Majesty."
Xiao Heng straightened his waist and said solemnly: "Min Aiqing listens to the order!"
"Minister Min Zheng, accept the order!" Min Zheng raised the hem of his clothes and knelt on the ground.
"Min Zheng, the doctor of imperial history, worked a lot on the state banquet and made a lot of contributions. He was specially conferred the title of Marquis of Yong'an, enfeoffed in Wannian County, and fully responsible for the construction of the palace—"
As soon as the words fell, Mu Taiwei suddenly stood in the middle of the hall, and raised his voice: "Your Majesty, the construction of the palace is of great importance. The appointment and dismissal of the person in charge should be discussed with the three publics. How can you make such a hasty decision?"
"Mu Aiqing means that my decision was too hasty?" Xiao Heng narrowed his eyes, with a hint of anger in his tone.
Taiwei Mu didn't care, instead he said provocatively: "Isn't it?"
"Bold!" Xiao Heng was sullen, pointing at Taiwei Mu to blame him.
"Master Taiwei—" Old Prime Minister Fan turned around, looked at Taiwei Mu, and at the same time intercepted Xiao Heng's words.
Mu Taiwei raised his neck and snorted, "What advice, Prime Minister?"
Old Prime Minister Fan had a serious face and a calm tone, "Mu Taiwei said just now that the affairs of the palace need to be discussed by the three princes, but just after Master Min was appointed Marquis, the position of Doctor Yushi was vacated. It will take some time. It’s just that winter is here and the weather is getting colder. If you don’t move the soil, you will miss the time.”
Mu Taiwei's expression turned serious, and he said in a deep voice, "You mean... Min Zheng won't take up the post of Imperial Censor?"
Old Prime Minister Fan said unhurriedly: "If you are in charge of the construction of the palace, you need to be transferred to Wannian County..."
Mu Taiwei clenched his fists, and immediately changed his words: "If you are in charge, take responsibility, Your Majesty, I think it is better to elect a new doctor Yushi as soon as possible!"
Xiao Heng said calmly: "What Aiqing said is true." Then he looked at Min Zheng, "Min Aiqing, accept the order."
"Chen Minzheng, lead the decree—thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!"
"Flat body."
When Min Zheng got up, he looked at Old Prime Minister Fan and smiled, the meaning of which was self-evident.
-
As soon as Huo Da received Xiao Heng's letter from Feige, he returned to Zhili County, brought his men and horses, and set up camp at the foot of Bazhuo Mountain.
Min Zheng also came to Wannian County as quickly as possible. The new Yong'anhou Mansion had not yet been built, so he chose a better house in Yujia Village, renovated it and moved in.
When Huo Da introduced, "Master Min is the new Marquis of Yong'an by his cousin", Su Ye was stunned for a while.
Marquis of Yong'an... used to be the title of Su Yelan's father, and it was also the introduction for Su Yelan to travel through time.
Unexpectedly, in just one year, there was a new Marquis of Yong'an.
Min Zheng didn't seem to notice Su Ye's gaffe, and his tone was still gentle, "'Yong'an' was originally the title of a first-rank military marquis. I specifically asked His Majesty to obtain this grace."
When Min Zheng said this, there was a bit of nostalgia in Min Zheng's eyes.
He changed his voice, "Xiao Ye, do you know why?"
Su Ye asked subconsciously, "Why?"
Min Zheng looked at the Bazhuo Mountain not far away, and said slowly: "Because, this title once belonged to an old friend of mine."
Su Ye was startled—is that what he thought?
Could it be... what Min Zheng was talking about was Yong'an Hou Suyang, "his" father?
Could it be that Min Zheng knew his true identity? !
Before Su Ye struggled for too long, Min Zheng changed the topic with a smile, "The green cane by the river should be ripe too?"
Su Ye came to his senses and said, "It should have been accepted a long time ago. I was busy a while ago, so I didn't take care of it."
Min Zheng smiled, "Is Xiaoye planting green cane to make stone honey?"
Su Ye nodded and said modestly, "I don't know if it will be possible, but I want to try it."
Min Zheng looked at him with love and admiration in his eyes, "Little Ye can always surprise people."
Su Ye touched his nose, he was somewhat embarrassed to be praised so bluntly.
There were layers of smile lines on Min Zheng's lips.
He turned his head to look at the river, and said again: "Collect it earlier, if it is later, I'm afraid it will be difficult to hire someone."
Su Ye was surprised, "What do you mean, my lord?"
"The palace is going to be built here, and the villages over there—" Min Zheng raised his arm, pointing to the other side of the Maple Leaf River, "all of them need to be moved out."
Su Ye was completely stunned upon hearing this.
His expression seemed a little strange, he didn't sit down once he entered the room, he just folded his arms and stared straight at Yu Feng.
Yu Feng subconsciously tightened his sweater and put on a defensive posture.

"Yes."
"Your Majesty is so generous!" Yu Feng chuckled, and presented it to Su Fan as if offering a treasure.
Su Ye smiled, turned around and put it away.

Huo Da held the teacup in his hand, glanced at Su Ye inadvertently, and asked strangely, "Are you getting fat?"
Su Ye paused, "Are you fat?"
He pinched his belly, it seemed to be a little bulging, but it wasn't the limp kind.
Yu Feng stepped between the two of them, cutting off Huo Da's sight, "Xiao Yezi is not fat, this is just right."
