It was the first time for Feng Erbi to have a pain in his butt during the Chinese New Year, but he was very happy.

Although His Highness beat him, he hired a doctor for him, bought good medicine, and gave him two tasks.

Isn't this just thinking highly of him?

The two missions are to deliver news, he has completed the first one, and is intensively preparing for the second one.

Since the last "break" with Lou Yu in the farm, Guo Tang held back for a long time and didn't come to Lou Yu, but kept secretly sending people to inquire about Lou Yu's news.

"My lord, according to the people in Prince Qing's Mansion, His Royal Highness was furious because Miss Huo had a rash on her face, and punished Feng Erbi who was ineffective. Feng Sanmo pleaded for brother and was also punished."

Guo Tang asked in surprise, "So the slave girl surnamed Huo really lost her face?"

"It's true."

Guo Tang was silent for a moment, he didn't know what to think of, his peach blossom eyes slightly curved, and he actually smiled.

"That's all right."

If it was before, he would not be interested in whoever the idiot fell in love with.

But recently, this son has changed a bit. Although he often makes him angry, it is more pleasing to the eye than the submissive cowardly behavior in the past.

Thinking of His Royal Highness's face, Guo Tang privately thought that a female slave of the Huo family was not good enough to match him.

"My lord, apart from this, there is something new happening in the city." The servant looked mysterious.

Guo Tang gave a "tsk", "What's the matter, tell me!"

"A traveling merchant got snow salt from nowhere, and the wealthy gentry in the city competed in private bidding, and sold it for a high price of 50 taels a catty!"

"50 taels!"

Guo Tang was startled, no matter how uncommon he is, he also knows that ordinary salt can cost dozens of cash at most, and the price is really sky-high.

But then I thought about it again, "No, since it's a private auction, how did you know it?"

"Young Master, what is your identity? Most people come to please you. What is this news?"

It's the first time a rare commodity like snow salt appears in Fucheng, so you can't keep it from the magistrate, right?

Guo Tang narrowed his eyes: "What does this snow salt look like? Where did it come from?"

The servant shook his head, "I don't know either."

Seeing that Guo Tang looked unhappy, he hurriedly added: "However, I have found out clearly that the itinerant merchant is staying at the Hongfu Inn. If you want to see snow salt, I will buy it here."

Guo Tang waved his hand, "Hurry up!"

The servants of the Guo Mansion retreated under orders, and braved the cold wind to rush to the Hongfu Inn.

Snow salt is a rare item, many wealthy gentry wanted to see something new, and after getting the news, they sent people to look for the traveling merchant.

When the servants of Guo's mansion came, the outside of the traveling merchant's house was so crowded that it was impossible to get through.

He unhurriedly took out the token of the Guo Mansion, and the servants of the wealthy gentry scattered in all directions.

Who dare not give face to the prefect's family?

Guo Nu showed embarrassment, and went straight into the traveling merchant's house without queuing up.

In the past few days, the traveling merchants were a bit smug because of the snow salt being sought after by others. In addition, they didn't know Guo Nu's identity. When they saw people coming in, they leaned on the chair and shook their legs: "Let's make it clear first, we won't sell it below 50 taels."

Guo Nu snorted and said, "My master is not short of money. I want as much as you have."

Big customer!

Excited, the traveling merchant really wanted to agree, but when he thought of the order from the person behind him, he could only patiently say, "Each household can only buy one catty at most."

Guo Nu was thinking of such a rare thing, of course, buying them all is the only way to show his identity. Hearing this, he immediately said angrily: "You didn't say that just now!"

Pedestrian merchant: "Now you know, whether you like it or not."

Guo Nu held back his impatience, "You have to let me inspect the product first to see if it's worth buying."

"no problem."

The traveling businessman turned around, went behind the screen and took out a wide-mouthed celadon jar, put it on the table, unsealed it, and said with a smile: "You can see it."

Every time he sees the amazement of the guests, he is sincerely proud, and he enjoys this sense of accomplishment very much.

It was not what he expected.

Guo Nu was shocked in place.

"Snow salt", as the name suggests, is salt like snow.

He didn't really believe it at first, but seeing it is better than hearing it, and he was still amazed after all.

The salt crystals are clean and flawless, and against the backdrop of celadon jars, they present a different kind of beauty.That white and crystal-clear appearance is not inferior to Frost Snow, even more clear and clear than Frost Snow.

It's so beautiful!

"I want it!"

His face was flushed, and he reached for the porcelain jar.

The traveling merchant quickly stopped him, "Pay with one hand and deliver with one hand."

Guo Nu sold 50 taels.

The traveling merchant shook his head, "Not enough."

"Didn't you say 50 taels!" Guo Nu gritted his teeth.

"It's just not less than 50 taels." The traveling businessman revealed his profit-seeking nature, "Besides, this celadon jar is also of high quality."

Only good porcelain can match good salt.

Guo Nu couldn't bear to give up the snow salt, "Then tell me, how much is it!"

"60 taels."

When the traveling merchant said these three words, he felt his heart beating wildly.

The person behind it said that for every catty sold, he will get [-]% of the profit of the selling price.

In other words, if he sells 60 taels, he can get [-] taels!

Six taels once, what about twice?three times?What about a hundred times?

He's going to send it!

Guo Nu stared straight at the snow salt in the porcelain jar, and gritted his teeth.

"make a deal!"

Guo Nu's heart was bleeding when he exchanged 60 taels for a small jar of snow salt, but it was all worth it thinking that he could please the young master.

Anyway, the son never cared about money.

After he left, the figure watching from the shadows also left the inn and headed for Prince Qing's mansion.

Lou Yu was practicing archery in the courtyard, when he saw Feng Sanmo coming in, he asked with a smile, "Who bought it from the Guo Mansion?"

Feng Sanmo nodded: "I see, 60 taels."

Lou Yu, a black-hearted businessman, raised his eyebrows, his smile was a little unpredictable, and he said with emotion in a low voice:

"So the magistrate is so rich."

Feng Sanmo asked: "Your Highness, what should I do next?"

Lou Yu pulled the string and shot an arrow with a whoosh. Although the momentum was strong, it seriously missed the target.

His archery skills were so poor that he couldn't help but feel a little depressed. He let out a long sigh before responding to Feng Sanmo: "Pay close attention to the movements of the Guo Mansion."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Feng Erbi running in beamingly, holding something in his hands, he first greeted Lou Yu, and then handed the things to Feng Sanmo.

"Sanmo, this is a rare gift from the concubine to my father, one for each of us."

Lou Yu didn't care at all, just glanced casually.

Just this one glance directly shocked him in place.

"What did you take!"

After reacting, he immediately yelled, dropped his bow and arrow and hurried to Feng Erbi.

Feng Erbi was startled, let go of his hand, and the thing in his palm fell to the ground with a thud, and rolled a few times.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, this is rewarded by the princess, and I don't know what it is."

Lou Yu couldn't care less about what he said, he quickly picked up the round thing, didn't dislike the mud on it, held it in his hand and looked at it carefully.

Yellowish skin, green shoots, isn't this just a potato!

He actually saw potatoes!

He has been wearing it for so long, and he has never heard of potatoes in Dasheng!

"You said it was rewarded by my mother?" Lou Yu's eyes were shining.

Feng Erbi shrank his neck, "Yes, yes."

Lou Yu ran towards the main courtyard holding the potatoes, leaving behind the Feng brothers who were staring blankly at each other.

Princess Qing was busy arranging the New Year's ceremony, when she saw Lou Yu rushing over, she couldn't help laughing and said, "Why are you in such a hurry?"

Lou Yu slapped Tudou in front of her, "Mother, where did this come from!"

Concubine Qing said in a daze: "Your second sister sent this in the annual gift. She said it was a rare item brought by an ocean-going merchant from the south. Let us have a look at it."

Lou Yu was shocked.

correct!The second brother-in-law is an official in the south, so he does have the opportunity to get in touch with foreign merchants!

He hurriedly asked, "How much more?"

Princess Qing thought he liked it, so she smiled and said: "Don't worry, although Mother gave some rewards to the servants, she left a lot for you."

Lou Yu's heart was beating wildly, and he followed Princess Qing into the warehouse, and saw ten small potatoes in the wooden box.

Just ten? !

He said, "Is there any more?"

"You really like it so much?" Princess Qing had a look of pity, "I knew mother would not reward the servants."

Seeing that it was ugly and useless, she thought Lou Yu wouldn't like it.

Lou Yu picked up the wooden box, "Mother, can you take back what was given to the servants? Tell them that you can exchange it for money, and they should be willing."

Princess Qing nodded, "This is easy."

She immediately asked Aunt Lianfang to do it.

"Mom, I still have important things to do, so I'm going back first."

Before he finished speaking, he had left the yard.

Princess Qing shook her head helplessly, she was still a child after all.

Back in the east courtyard, Lou Yu properly placed the wooden box, spread paper and ink.

Feng Erbi said: "If Your Highness really likes this thing, I will not want it."

"it is good."

Lou Yu didn't refuse at all, "Study ink for me, I want to edit a book and send it to Zhannan."

Feng Erbi happily said: "His Royal Highness wants to write a letter to the Second Princess?"

Zhannan, isn't it the place where the second county horse works?

"Ah."

Lou Yu finished writing the letter quickly, and solemnly confessed to Feng Erbi: "This letter is extremely important, and it must be delivered to the princess within the shortest possible time."

"I'll do it right now!" Feng Erbi took the letter carefully.

Lou Yu watched him leave the yard, his heart was agitated, and he couldn't help but thumped the table heavily.

God treats him well!
