Qi Zheng was drinking, when a hand reached out and picked up the wine glass opposite him.
He couldn't help frowning, and when he looked up and saw the other person's face, his frown became even more severe.
"Today, there was almost a falling out in the hall, and you actually drink here alone. I used to think that you were quite professional. Why did you suddenly change your style of painting?"
Qi Zheng snorted coldly with his nose. Although he didn't go to the court today, he thought he didn't know anything about what happened in the court?
Chen Bai sighed twice, this Qi Zheng is also quite strange, isn't he a tiger right in front of him, if you want to drink, go to him directly, you have to pour a glass of wine at an empty seat, isn't it annoying to watch? Scared?
"Those who don't know think you, Prince Zheng, are an infatuated and lovesick."
Chen Bo just wanted to put the wine glass to his mouth, but a hand stretched out and snatched his wine glass away, "Babbling nonsense."
"And in the future, don't use the name of a tiger to flaunt everywhere, and be your Chen Zifu."
It simply tarnished the noble friendship between him and the tiger.
Chen Bo: "..."
Qi Zheng's brain must be a little different from that of ordinary people.
Don't let him drink down, let's drink alone in the future, Chen Bai cursed in his heart.
He didn't come here specifically to tease Qi Zheng, and said, "The Empress Dowager Zhaosheng has come forward to clean up the mess. With the advice of the Empress Dowager Zhaosheng, the king may soon be the heir apparent."
Qi Zhengen gave a grunt.
Chen Bo frowned, "Before the king establishes the crown prince, the refined salt extracted from our salt lake must appear in front of the people, and the promotion of lettuce before, these two great achievements in improving the people's livelihood, at this time, if there is The high-ranking and powerful people take the lead in admonishing and let the king appoint you as the crown prince, forming the general trend. Moreover, Daqian is now overwhelming the Yan Kingdom with an army, and it is very likely that he will be involved in disputes among the countries in the future. At this time, Dagan The crown prince must not be a weak person, you happened to have a lot of military achievements in the past, and if you add these together, it will be difficult for you to do your own thing for the sake of the entire Daqian King."
"But the problem is that to extract the salt from the salt lake, you need to build a salt factory. If you want to build it as soon as possible, it will cost more."
In Chen Bai's eyes, Qi Zheng has already invested a lot in developing his fief, and although he has returned some money, it may not be so easy to spend a lot of money.
As a result, Qi Zheng replied, "Just do what you want, the sooner the refined salt will appear, the better. As for money, it's not a problem."
Chen Bo was taken aback for a moment, when did Qi Zheng become so rich?
Seemingly seeing Chen Bai's doubts, Qi Zheng only said three words, "Lu Qingqi."
Chen Bo opened his mouth: "Lv Qingqi, one of the three men?"
Chen Bo also pulled his father into Qi Zheng's chariot, and to win over a Jiuqing, in Chen Bai's view, was already the limit, but Lu Qingqi, one of the three big bosses, was actually on their side?
This is good news. In Chen Bo's original plan, Sangong remained public.
With the support of Lu Qingqi, who controls the financial power, money is indeed not a problem.
Now that the king is seriously ill, the management of the big cadres' financial rights will definitely be quite loose. It can be said that at this time, as long as Lu Qingqi is willing, he can basically play a decisive role in the allocation of treasury resources.
Of course, it is not so easy for Lu Qingqi to use the treasury to help Qi Zheng build a salt factory, but it is not impossible, as long as Lu Qingqi reluctantly gives a reasonable reason, and whether the reason is reasonable or not is ultimately up to Lu Qingqi himself to judge. It's like being a judge and a defendant at the same time.
As for the reason, Chen Bo has already thought about it for Lu Gong.
Once they start to produce refined salt in Salt Lake, a large amount of refined salt will hit the market, and it will be unfriendly to other salt merchants. It can be said that in the face of new refined salt technology and good and cheap refined salt, other salt merchants will only go bankrupt. , and who are the other salt merchants?It's official official salt.
Even if Lu Qingqi didn't let the official salt go bankrupt, he would eventually have to cooperate with Qi Zheng to obtain a new method of refining refined salt.
Therefore, this reason is reasonable and legal, and even other officials cannot object.
Chen Bo nodded, "In that case, I will put refined salt on the market as quickly as possible."
Providing cheap and good refined salt to the people, coupled with the promotion of lettuce, solved the most basic livelihood problems of the people, and made Dagan a new look in such a short period of time. By then, Qi Zheng's reputation will surely be in full swing.
Before Chen Bai left, he glanced at Qi Zheng who was holding a wine glass, and patted Qi Zheng on the shoulder with his hand out of nowhere, "My condolences."
Then turn around and run.
Qi Zheng's face turned black in an instant, "Presumptuous."
If it weren't for the fact that Chen Zifu was running fast and had to be hung up to beat him, the gap with his tiger would be too big, it would be a crime.
The next day, Chen Bo went to work on his salt factory. He was really afraid to go to Qi Zheng, so he sent a letter to someone, and the people arranged by Qi Zheng came one after another.
Chen Bo only needs to instruct them how to build the salt factory, and he doesn't have to worry about other artificial materials.
The site of the salt factory was chosen next to the lake, and it was built around the lake.
It is not entirely correct to say that it is a salt factory. Chen Bo plans to build this place into a very distinctive salt town.
Of course, the top priority is to establish the salt factory first, and the others are slowly being planned.
Chen Bo went with a group of students, who happened to be teaching these students while building the salt factory.
Now he offers an extra chemistry class.
A group of students were holding a beaker, filling some salt water, and burning it with an alcohol lamp by the lake.
"This lake contains many different substances. What we are going to learn today is how to separate these substances."
So a group of students, memorizing the periodic table of elements, learned to separate salt from lake water in different ways.
The refining process of lake salt is actually very proficient, just follow it. The reason why Chen Bo did not directly tell these students the method, but let them try it slowly, is to let them develop more thinking and hands-on abilities.
But the salt factory can't do it. There is no time to do research, so he needs to directly use the mature refining process he found, so that the salt can be extracted faster.
In the past, Chen Bo would not be in such a hurry, but now the situation is special.
Therefore, building a salt factory basically requires working overtime, and thanks to the financial support provided by Lu Qingqi, otherwise it would be really troublesome.
Of course, Chen Bo is also part of the success of building first, first trying to extract the salt, and then slowly expand.
Compared with the busyness of building a salt factory, a group of students is much happier.
"Yeah, look at my beaker, there are really black things separated from the water."
"This is the toxic metal Bogeer said, tsk tsk, I isolated one, haha."
Of course, the happiest thing is when eating, because this place is relatively barren, and cooking is very rough.
How can these students bear it? One or two are young masters raised by noble families.
For this reason, Chen Bo really brought out some good things and bought a lot of self-healing pots for these students.
"Gan Xin, do you want to try my spicy hot pot?"
Gan Xin looked at his fat beef roll clear soup self-healing pot, then at Chen Xiaobu's spicy pot, "How about I try a vermicelli?"
Obviously, he is most afraid of spicy food, but every time he can't help but try other people's spicy food. In the end, just one vermicelli made his whole face turn red.
Chen Xiaobu couldn't help but gulp down, "Why can't you eat such a delicious spicy pot?"
Gan Xin was frowning, why can't he eat spicy food, but his beef roll in clear soup is also delicious, and he can still drink soup.
Qi Zheng also came to check on the progress from time to time.
The progress of the salt field is very fast, and it must be fast. Chen Bo has already begun to use the built salt field to start drying and boiling salt.
But faster than their progress, there was news from the palace.
Chen Bai received a summons from the palace, "Send the scholar who writes to enter the palace..."
Chen Bo's eyes narrowed. At this time, when he was passed on to the palace, there should be nothing else other than asking him to draw up a decree.
When Chen Bo arrived, it was true that the three princes and nine ministers were all there, even the Queen Mother Zhaosheng.
The king's condition is also getting worse. Compared with the last time I saw him, he is obviously more seriously ill.
The atmosphere was a little depressing.
Chen Bo stood aside, waiting for the order.
"Please make the crown prince."
I don't know who opened the mouth, and then Sangong and Jiuqing agreed.
The Empress Dowager Zhaosheng sighed, she knew how difficult it was for the king to get to this position, a person who is used to standing at the pinnacle of power, suddenly being forced to make a will must feel uncomfortable.
But if it is still delayed, who will be responsible for the stability of the work?
In Chen Bo's eyes, or in everyone's eyes, a person who is terminally ill may not feel that he has reached the point of no cure, so it is not so easy to let go of the rights that can be grasped.
The king's voice was a little hoarse, "Do you all think I'm dying?"
Chen Bai finally understood that no matter how sensible a person used to be, at a certain point, there will be times when he is in a daze.
It was still the empress dowager Zhaosheng who said, "What foolish words did the king say? The establishment of a heir is just following the precepts of the ancestors. Looking at all countries, which country does not have its own heir?"
Even let people come to read aloud the system of rituals.
"Is it just following the etiquette of the ancestors?" the king murmured to himself.
To be honest, Chen Bo can't stand this kind of atmosphere a little bit. The old general Hongyan Yi is late. Because Chen Bo has not reached such an age, it is difficult to evaluate what kind of mentality he will have.
But the current king does make people feel the uncontrollable desire for power.
In fact, neither Sangong, Jiuqing, nor the Empress Dowager Zhaosheng showed any intention of violating the supreme authority of the king.
After a while, the king said, "Then follow the ancestral system."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Chen Bo hurried forward and laid out the pens and paper that he had already prepared.
As soon as the king opened his mouth, this bedroom was wonderful. It can be said that no matter how well they had concealed it before, their positions must be completely exposed at this moment. After all, once Chen Bai's pen is written, it will become an established fact.
He couldn't help frowning, and when he looked up and saw the other person's face, his frown became even more severe.
"Today, there was almost a falling out in the hall, and you actually drink here alone. I used to think that you were quite professional. Why did you suddenly change your style of painting?"
