"There's salt! There's salt! It's really salt!"
An exclamation, like oil splashing on a hot pan, instantly caused the camp to boil.
Lou Yu was leisurely holding a bowl to eat, when he heard the thunderous cheers outside, he almost scared off his chopsticks.
Ah Yan was overjoyed and rushed into the barracks: "Your Highness, the salt is out!"
Immediately afterwards, Li Shu also ran over: "Your Highness, the salt is out!"
Yang Ji'an was not to be outdone: "Your Highness, the salt is out!"
All three looked at him expectantly.
The next moment, the door curtain was lifted again, and a handsome young man stepped in.
Before he could open his mouth, Lou Yu stretched out his hand to stop him: "It's salty, I've listened to it three times."
Huo Yan: "..."
He just stood there quietly.
Just now when he saw the salt coming out, Huo Yan felt an inexplicable emotion surge in his heart.This is the first time since his family was destroyed, he had some expectations for things other than the Huo family.
The joy of harvest is always the most touching.
Without thinking too much, he came to the barracks and wanted to tell Lou Yu.
Just a beat slower than them.
Lou Yu saw that he was more proactive than before, and his mood became more comfortable.
That night Huo Yan saw someone outside, causing him to be frustrated beyond words.
Lou Yu has always been committed to resolving conflicts with Huo Yan, at least, he hopes that Huo Yan will no longer harbor resentment.
But Huo Yan's blunt attitude still made him a little lonely.
Lou Yu was indeed a little sad at the time, but later lying on the bed and thinking about it, he felt that Huo Yan didn't know that he was another person, and it was reasonable to have a relationship with him.
He is not a person who likes to drill into the horns, and he is relieved after empathizing.
Unexpectedly, on the third morning, Feng Erbi came in with a piece of paper and handed it to him mysteriously.
"Your Highness, Huo Yansai gave it to me just now."
Lou Yu took a closer look, good guy, it turned out to be the various secret whistle strongholds in the salt field!
What was planned to be done before leaving the saltworks, but Huo Yan did not expect to finish it in two days, which is really surprising and ironic.
The hero deserves to be the hero, and the way of apologizing is so unique.
Does Huo Yan's move prove that he is willing to take the initiative to participate in the affairs?
The last lump in Lou Yu's heart disappeared.
Such an awkward 14-year-old boy is really annoying, and even inexplicably soft-hearted.
No, the year has passed, and Huo Yan is fifteen.
The mind returns to the present moment.
Lou Yu put down the tableware calmly: "Follow me to have a look."
There were already many people around the salt pond, and when Lou Yu arrived, everyone saluted in unison, all with respect in their eyes.
Who would have thought that their 14-year-old son, His Royal Highness, would actually be exposed to the sun!
In the crystallization pool, the brine has already released snowflakes. Although the color is not pure enough, it is not much different from the salt produced by the salt field.
Lou Yu took a few glances and said, "We have to wait for a few more days, they're all gone first."
I can only hope that it will not rain before the work is over.
Sunyan is most afraid of rain.
Fortunately, the precipitation here in Gyeongju is not too much. At present, it seems that the possibility of rain in a short period of time is very small.
When he has money and power, he can build a closed salt pond in the salt field, so that he no longer has to worry about the rain.
This is a long-term goal, Lou Yu can only think about it now.
The ambassador had been keeping a close eye on Lou Yu, and seeing that Lou Yu hadn't produced any salt after so many days, but their salt farm had been producing enough salt every day, he felt contemptuous and his supervision was lax.
Until the news of the salt came out.
He put down the bowl and chopsticks, Huang Dou's eyes widened, "It really happened?"
"It's indeed out." The subordinate looked excited.
The ambassador knocked on his forehead and cursed: "You are so happy!"
The subordinate Hanhan asked back: "Isn't this a good thing for the saltworks?"
Boiling salt consumes too much manpower and material resources. On the contrary, drying salt looks much simpler and lighter.
The ambassador calmed down, "How much salt is out?"
"I don't know, just some salt flowers."
The ambassador snorted coldly: "Then wait for the truth to come out."
He doesn't believe that sun-dried salt is really better than boiled salt. Let alone other things, once it rains, the saltworks will have to stop working.
Lou Yu was so happy that the ambassador remained silent.
Sitting in the tent, he smiled admiringly at Sun Jingwen in front of him, "This picture is detailed, it's hard work, Miss Sun has made another contribution."
Sun Jingwen showed embarrassment: "Brother Huo also helped me a lot. If it weren't for Brother Huo, I wouldn't be able to see the clues in some places."
She paused, lowered her head and whispered, "Your Highness can call me by my name."
Always calling "little lady, little lady", which is too unfamiliar and polite.
She had heard His Highness call "Erbi", "Huo Yan", "Jian", and she didn't want to fall behind.
Lou Yu was taken aback for a moment, he would rather be called by his name, but——
"You belong to my daughter's family, so it's not easy for me to call my boudoir by her first name."
The world is like this, and the little girl's reputation must always be taken into account.
Unexpectedly, the little girl didn't care.
"My father raised me as a boy since I was a child. The name is just my name. Your Highness doesn't need to care about it."
Lou Yu nodded in response.
"The task is completed, do you want any rewards?"
He is out of habit.
I remember that in modern times, the employees of Mom's Company completed the projects well, and as the boss, she would give benefits to the employees.
But Sun Jingwen firmly refused, so Lou Yu had no choice but to give up.
A few days later, the weather was fine and the sea breeze was gentle.
Surrounded by the crowd, Lou Yu walked to the side of the crystallization pool and saw a large area of salt crystals. Under everyone's excited and expectant eyes, Lou Yu ordered loudly:
"Fill!"
"Follow the order!"
The government soldiers rolled up their sleeves and held salt shovels in their hands, all of them were full of enthusiasm.
Baskets of raw salt were continuously transported to the camp, which really surprised the ambassador of the salt class.
The ambassador came in person, and when he saw a considerable amount of salt crystals, he couldn't help shouting: "How is that possible!"
His subordinates also stared round their eyes.
However, all the government soldiers didn't have time to pay attention to them, they were all earnestly fishing for salt.
The ambassador's heart was trembling, and he commanded his subordinates tremblingly: "Quick! Go and inform the prefect!"
I don't know who disclosed the news, and the salt workers in the salt field also heard about it, and they discussed it privately.
"Is there really a lot of salt in the sun?"
"It's true! Basket after basket, no firewood wasted!"
"I do not believe."
"Why don't you believe it? The place where I work is near there, I saw it with my own eyes!"
"Prince Qing's son is really so godlike?"
"What are you talking about!" Zhao Shuangsi heard them talking about the prince from a distance, and couldn't help approaching with a dark face.
"Boss Zhao, do you think His Royal Highness has exposed so much salt?" someone asked.
Zhao Shuangsi frowned: "His Royal Highness is also what you can say? Hurry up and go to work!"
Everyone had to disperse and leave.
Zhao Shuangsi stood where he was, looking at the camp for a while, until the supervisor pointed a whip at him in the distance, then lowered his head to work.
He carried the brine to the stove, and Xiaogou Zhao was adding firewood to the fire.
"Is your mother feeling better today?"
Zhao Xiaogou nodded happily: "Aniang is a little more energetic, and she said a lot to me."
"say what?"
Zhao Xiaogou pursed his lips and snickered, "You said His Royal Highness is our family's great benefactor, and you must remember to repay His Highness in the future."
Thinking of the prince shrouded in golden light, Zhao Shuangsi couldn't help laughing, with gratitude engraved in his wrinkles.
"Yeah, let's repay the favor."
But their family of three is poor and poor, what can they do for His Highness?
I'm afraid this kindness can only be remembered in my heart for a lifetime.
He couldn't help thinking, it would be great if the salt farm was under the management of His Highness, His Highness's benevolence must be different from those corrupt officials!
Corrupt official Guo Lian is secretly investigating the place where his son is being held.
I've been searching for days, but no progress has been made.
Just when he was balding, news came from the salt field.
Guo Lian accidentally knocked over the teacup, his eyes widened: "It was really made for him?"
"It's true."
Guo Lian was stunned for a while, then suddenly remembered something, and asked the servants on the left and right: "Where did the snow salt come from, have you found out?"
Both left and right shook their heads and pleaded guilty.
Guo Lian narrowed his eyes. In Qingzhou Mansion, only King Qing Mansion could compete with him.
His son was captured because of snow salt, and King Qing happened to bump into him. Guo Lian had reason to suspect that the person who made the snow salt was someone from King Qing's mansion.
He didn't guess at Lou Yu's head at first, how could a yellow-mouthed child who hasn't grown his hair yet be so capable?
But now it seems that the least possible is the most likely.
Guo Lian got up and said: "Prepare the car, I will go to the saltworks myself."
In the barracks, Lou Yu sat opposite Huo Yan.
He was leaning against the desk, with a casual and unsightly posture, while studying the deployment map and secret whistle, while eating preserved fruit.
"You mean, as long as the sentries are dealt with, those earthen walls will be vulnerable?"
Huo Yan nodded: "I have secretly tested the strength of the guards, they..."
He couldn't think of any words to describe it.
Lou Yu smiled suddenly: "It's terrible?"
"Ah."
Lou Yu closed his eyes and pondered.
No wonder Zhao Shuangsi led two thousand skinny salt workers to break through the defense of the saltworks and rush straight into Gyeongju City.
The guards guarding the saltworks for a long time will inevitably become slack, and thus degenerate into wine bags and rice bags, and their strength will be greatly reduced.
Even so, he can't act rashly now.
Guo Lian is the biggest stumbling block.
If he wanted to completely remove this stone, he had to have a perfect plan.
Lou Yu sighed softly, "Just wait a little longer."
He raised his eyes to look at Huo Yan, just bumped into Huo Yan's cheek staring at him, saw him looking over, and quickly avoided.
Lou Yuruo felt something: "Is there something on my face?"
"Ah."
Lou Yu reached out to wipe the right cheek.
"Left."
Wipe the left cheek again.
"The corner of the mouth."
When Lou Yu wiped off a piece of flesh, Huo Yan's slightly shrugged shoulders finally sank.
Lou Yu secretly smiled, dare to love is still an obsessive-compulsive disorder.
At the right time, Feng Erbi reported outside the camp: "Your Highness, Governor Guo seeks an audience."
After Lou Yu put away the drawings, Huo Yan got up immediately.
"You stay." After Lou Yu ordered, he said outside the camp, "Let him in."
Huo Yan stood aside, watching his nose, nose and heart, standing tall and straight like a pine.
When Guo Lianfu entered the barracks, he wanted to praise Lou Yu, but Lou Yu preempted him.
"Prefect Guo, great joy!"
Guo Lian's expression froze.
"Where does the joy come from?"
An exclamation, like oil splashing on a hot pan, instantly caused the camp to boil.
Lou Yu was leisurely holding a bowl to eat, when he heard the thunderous cheers outside, he almost scared off his chopsticks.
Ah Yan was overjoyed and rushed into the barracks: "Your Highness, the salt is out!"
