Recently, there has been a saying among the caravans going to the Western Regions that if you want to go to the Western Regions and pass through the most important traffic node without risking your life, then the inn under the name of Lie Yanjiao is definitely the best choice.

In the beginning, this statement came from the caravan under the name of the Snow Lotus Sect and the caravan that participated in the opening ceremony of the Lieyan Sect. Everyone scoffed at this. Everyone knows that to make money in the Western Regions is to put your head on your belt Yes, and this traffic artery is even more dangerous. I don't know how many caravans are buried there every year, but there are also many caravans who go to the inn under the name of Lie Yanjiao out of curiosity.

However, when these caravans came back safe and sound, the dazed expression on their faces attracted the attention of other caravan leaders.

"Boss Li, congratulations on your safe return. Didn't you go to the inn under the name of Lie Yanjiao? You are being slaughtered, why don't you see that the soul has not returned to its place?" Liu Ji's boss looked at the inn sitting in the teahouse Boss Li asked gossipingly with a dazed face.

Boss Li was called back by Boss Liu Ji's words and said with a look of disgust: "You old boy, can you hope that I will order well? You are still being slaughtered. This time I have taken advantage of it."

Boss Li said that a smug smile appeared on his face, looking at the other caravan owners who surrounded him out of curiosity, he said, "You all know the rumors from the snow lotus caravan, right? It's all true."

Boss Liu said suspiciously: "This can't be, is there a five-story building that can stand upright in the bad weather of the Western Regions?"

Boss Li waved his hand and said, "I didn't believe it at first, but until I saw the building with my own eyes, it was indeed tall and extremely stable. There was a young man in my team who was also a jumper. We booked a room on the fourth floor of the inn. I bumped into it several times and the floor did not shake. I was so frightened that my heart trembled, and I hurriedly asked the young man to get out of the way, but when the carpet was lifted, the ground did not change at all."

"It's just that the accommodation fee is a bit high, but he doesn't deduct the goods. If I live in another inn, I have to deduct at least part of the goods there. And in the inn of Lie Yanjiao, there is a special storage place for the goods. Pay a storage fee, if you think it’s too expensive, you can directly move the goods to your room, and he also packs lunch, and sells dry food, the dry food is delicious, and there is oil.” Boss Li Smacking his lips, he lamented the fairy days he had lived in those few days.

Other caravan bosses were also interested. One of the old caravan bosses took a sip of tea and said kindly to Boss Li, "Boss Li, are the rumors about safety safe?"

Boss Li got excited all of a sudden, sat up straight and said to these caravan bosses: "Fidelity is absolutely fidelity. Look at the inns and teahouses we live in. The walls separating them are all wooden boards. To those knights, it was like paper, our hands turned red when we knocked on it, and their knights smashed the wall, and there was no skin on their hands."

"Also, the windows are made of fine wood edges, not to mention those heroes, if I'm not afraid of pain, I can smash them open, but the inn is different." Said that Boss Li had just taken a sip of tea, and I was urged by other caravan bosses to talk about it below.

"Didn't those rumors say that the inn was given to them by the Lieyan God of the Lieyan Sect? It was said that it was born directly from the stone. Although I don't know if the rumor is true or not, the wall is really like a stone. , You can feel that it is solid with your hands!" Boss Li patted the table when he was excited, "Those knights let alone broke in, even with a sledgehammer, they can't smash it open!"

Boss Liu was silent when he heard this. His father was killed because the horse bandit next door broke in through the wall, and was robbed of the goods.

"If there was such an inn at that time..." Boss Liu who reacted smiled and shook his head. He was a lot of age, why would he still think this is unrealistic, and then said to Boss Li jokingly: " It’s useless to have a wall, what if it comes in through the window or the door.”

Boss Li saw Boss Liu's lonely expression, and quickly teased him: "You still come in through the window, how high is the window? 4th floor! Climb a 4th-story wall with your bare hands and show me." Look, even those heroes can't do it, and it's even more impossible to come in through the door, you absolutely can't think of who those Xiao Er who worked in the inn were before."

Boss Li deliberately put on a trick and drank the tea in his hand slowly, while the other bosses had already started discussing in a hurry.

"Could it be someone who bought it specifically for the inn?" "I think it was specially made by the Lieyan Sect." "Old Li, don't be foolish, just talk about it."

Boss Li then slowly put down the teacup in his hand to signal them to come closer and said: "Those little girls, and the inn is in charge of logistics..."

"All of them are heroes from the Lieyan Sect who were disabled due to fighting with other sects in the Western Regions and their relatives."

Seeing the inconceivable expressions on the faces of other caravan bosses, Boss Li said with a wry smile: "To be honest, I also found it incredible when I saw it. Who would have thought that the future of the members of the Lieyan Sect would be settled."

Recalling how those chivalrous men devoted their heart and soul to the Lieyan Sect, Boss Li said with emotion: "The Lieyan Sect is only able to afford it because of its great achievements. We people can only give some money to the family members who are lost in the caravan. "

The other bosses nodded silently. They don't have the financial resources to open an inn to support the family members of the dead guy in the caravan, but this does not prevent them from feeling a little respect for the young master of the Lie Yan Sect. , must not be some ungrateful generation.

Not to mention the act of benevolence and righteousness of the young master of the Lieyan Sect, just the fact that the goods are not deducted is enough to make other caravan owners choose the inn of the Lieyan Sect as their first choice for accommodation.

"I don't know if the young master of Lieyan Cult will open that inn in other places." Whoever said this, all the caravan bosses present nodded in unison.

As long as it is a caravan going to the Western Regions to do business, who would not want to live in a safe and comfortable inn that will not confiscate goods.

-------------------------------------

Chu An sneezed, looking at the profits of the hotel in his hand, he deeply felt that expanding the production of the cement plant was an urgent task.

The 20-day profit of this inn alone is equivalent to Lie Yanjiao's income in the previous two months. Even without counting the gold and silver treasures that robbed the horse bandits, it is a huge sum of money. According to the congregation, this is much faster than getting money from robbery.

"When the old leader was still alive, our Lieyan Sect also engaged in the horse bandit business for a while. Although we only want money and don't kill people, it's not honorable to say it, so it's normal that you don't know, young master. At that time, robbery The money for one visit is not half as high as the profit of our hotel." The old congregation, who was blind in one eye, said a little embarrassedly.

This old congregation is now in charge of the accounting management of the entire hotel. He was originally a member of the Lieyan Sect, but he lost one eye during the battle with Jinren 15 years ago, and has since lost his fighting power.

However, after Chu An dug out the old senior, he discovered that the old senior's sensitivity to abacus and accounting was simply beyond ordinary people's height.

For Chu An, who is extremely short of management talents around him, this is no less than a long drought and rain. After this old man was entrusted with a heavy responsibility, he also took care of the entire hotel's accounts like a soldier who died for his confidant. Organized.

After the old man resigned, Chu An looked at the profits and felt that there was no need to worry about the funds for renovating other hotels. Now the only condition that restricts him to renovate other hotels is the speed of cement production.

Thinking of this, Chu An was deeply grateful for his decision to cooperate with the government to hire prisoners to work in the quarry. If they hadn't reached a cooperation with the government before, they should be digging stones now.

"I have to thank Fangzhu Zhang," Chu An rubbed his chin and muttered, "Send the coking method over, it happens that coke can also increase the temperature of the steelmaking furnace, but I have to ask Fangzhu Zhang to pay attention to the furnace, so that it cannot be burned. .”

Speaking of which, Chu An excitedly took out the paper and began to draw the coking method, while still muttering: "Just order the steel bars needed for the renovation of other inns this time."

Zhang Fangzhu, who had no idea that a big piece of pie was about to fall on his head, was looking numbly at the noble and romantic man in front of him, smiling, looking around at his steelmaking workshop, and from time to time Also see how the blacksmith makes weapons.

Zhang Chen silently turned his head to the side and faced an old man who came with the Merry Young Master, and finally couldn't help the collapse of his heart, and said in an angry voice.

"My lord Lu, it's not surprising that the emperor has such a temperament to come here in person, but why did you, the Minister of the Household Department, come to the Western Regions with the emperor?"

-------------------------------------

Hubu Shangshu's heart was numb, or from the time he saw the emperor dressed as an ordinary man, sitting on the main seat of his Hubu Shangshu's mansion with a group of imperial guards, he had a certainty about his future fate. premonition.

If it was five years ago when the emperor first ascended the throne, the Hubu Shangshu would have justly reprimanded the emperor for running around in such a disregard of his own safety, but now the Hubu Shangshu, who has been destroyed by the emperor for five years, no longer wants to treat the emperor at all. This act expresses an opinion.

And then after the emperor directly brought him, the Minister of the Household Department, into the luxurious carriage with all kinds of supplies, the Minister of the Household Department only had the feeling that he had really come.

And when the emperor told their destination, Hubu Shangshu had the urge to jump off the carriage and escape for the first time.

The Western Regions, that was just taken back by the emperor, the Western Regions within a few years!

The folk customs there are notoriously tough, and there are all kinds of Western Region sects that kill people without blinking an eye. The caravans of each family will almost die if they go there. Why did the emperor go there?Could it be to seek excitement again?

However, Shangshu Hubu did not jump out of the car in the end. After all, although their emperor seemed a little out of tune, he was not ambiguous about major issues.

Sure enough, Minister of the Household Department saw Zhang Chen on the side, dragged the emperor into a room where no one would be able to eavesdrop, and cupped his hands and asked, "I don't know why the emperor came to the Western Regions?"

The emperor closed the fan in his hand with a snap, and said with a serious expression: "Zhang Aiqing, I already know about the cement matter you mentioned. This matter is of great importance. I must come to discuss with Lie Yanjiao in person."

After speaking, the emperor patted Zhang Chen's shoulder with emotion and said, "It's been so hard for Zhang Aiqing these years."

Zhang Chen suddenly felt the feeling that a scholar would die for his confidant, but then the emperor suppressed this feeling completely.

"By the way, Zhang Aiqing has been in the Western Regions for so many years, have you heard any interesting rumors about those sects in the Western Regions? Did the newly appointed young master of the Lieyan Sect really inherit Chu Xiaoxiao's beautiful face? The master of the Snow Lotus Sect The daughter of the door really almost opened the sect, and integrated all the civilians who came to defect to the sect together? And those gangsters..."

Looking at the emperor in front of him who was full of interest and asking about various rumors from the Western Regions, Zhang Chen felt nothing at all.

Sure enough, this was the Holy Majesty he was familiar with.
