President of Datang [Transmigration Book]

Qin Jin, who came out with him, had grown his mouth at this time, and Chen Chong couldn't help blurting out: "This... is this a fairyland?"

Qi Jin also murmured: "Oh my god, have we reached the sky? But why is there a blue sky above our heads and blue sky under our feet? No, there seems to be water, my lord, what is this place?"

Li Tan, who was questioned by him, didn't speak. He stared blankly at the blue sky and white clouds above his head and the blue sky and white clouds under his feet. After a while, he said, "Mirror of the sky."

Originally, Zhu Xieli was also shocked by the strange scene here, but he was more rational after all, and didn't feel that they had just arrived in the fairyland, but Li Tan's distraught appearance really worried him.

At this time, after Li Tan said these four words, he couldn't help asking: "Mirror of the sky? What is that?"

Li Tan came back to his senses, turned his head to look at Zhu Xieli with a complicated expression, and said, "Your luck is really good, you can find such a place even after hunting monitor lizards."

Zhu Xieli knew that Li Tan would definitely not be aimless, so he asked, "What's here?"

Just as Li Tan was about to say something, he suddenly heard the sound of monitor lizards crawling. He quickly put down the raccoon in his hand, turned his head and picked up Shui Changsheng·Zao Huanglong and said, "Wait a minute, let's take care of these monitor lizards first." Bar."

Now these giant lizards have no intention of fighting back, and they are all running around, messing up this beautiful scenery.

The shallow water on the ground was disturbed by the monitor lizard, and the beautiful scene was disrupted in an instant, and there was a feeling of returning from the fairyland to the human world in an instant.

Chen Chong and Jin Jin were furious, but they didn't dare to ignore Li Tan's order and rushed over, so they could only grit their teeth and look at the giant lizards.

Fortunately, these escaped monitor lizards are basically juvenile monitor lizards, and they have just gone out to "defend the enemy" as adults, and the few adult monitor lizards here should be of the old, weak, sick, disabled and pregnant level.

When these monitor lizards were all floating and wrapped in the water polo, the mirror of the sky finally returned to normal, and the water surface also restored the original scene of reflecting the sky like a mirror.

No, judging from the current mirror, even the mirror may not be as clear as here.

It's no wonder that Chen Chong and Qi Jin regarded this place as a fairyland.

It's just that the figures of those monitor lizards were also reflected on the water, which looked weird and disgusting.

Li Tan said: "Once these monitor lizards die, they must be transported out with something so as not to pollute the water here."

Seeing his serious expression, Zhu Xieli couldn't help asking: "What's the secret here?"

Li Tan turned to Chen Chong and said, "Go out and guard, no one is allowed to come in without our order, anyone who trespasses will be killed!"

Chen Chong's expression froze. He hadn't seen Li Tan so indifferent and decisive before, so he quickly responded, "Yes!"

After he finished speaking, he took a group of people out to guard the entrance of the cave. Well, just to be on the safe side, let's guard both entrances.

What surprised him was that Cheng Jin also withdrew with the guards who followed to protect Zhu Xieli.

Facing Chen Chong's puzzled gaze, Qijin smiled and said, "It must be very important for our king to pay so much attention to it. This kind of thing is not suitable for us to listen to."

Chen Chong looked at him with admiration. Although many people knew what to listen to and whether to listen or not, everyone had curiosity, and sometimes it was not just curiosity, but also because of interests.

Qin Jin was able to control his curiosity, and felt that this person's brain was very inconsistent with his simple and honest one.

In fact, Li Tan didn't think about clearing the venue at first, he just wanted his people to go out first, after all he was worried that Zhu Xieli would not trust the people brought by Chen Chong.

As for Zhu Xieli's side, the people he can bring with him must be the ones he trusts very much.

As a result, I didn't expect these people to leave here one after another when they saw that Chen Chong and Cheng Jin had left. In an instant, only Li Tan and Zhu Xieli were left here.

Li Tan looked at their backs and said with a smile: "They are all very measured."

Zhu Xieli also took a look and said, "After all, your expression looks as if something big is about to happen."

Li Tan raised his eyebrows and said, "Of course it's a major event, a very important event. Do you know where this is?"

Zhu Xieli hesitated and shook his head: "Why? This lake is very precious? I don't think the water is very deep. Maybe it's not enough as a water source? It's beautiful, but it's really beautiful."

Li Tan said with a smile: "There is no water source here, because the water is not fresh water, it is a salt lake!"

When Zhu Xieli heard the word salt, he couldn't help but immediately asked in surprise: "You mean... salt is produced here?"

Li Tan nodded. He looked into the distance and said, "And this salt lake doesn't look small. Although I'm not sure how many years you can use it for the whole city, at least you don't have to be troubled by salt in the early days of the city."

As an important material, salt can be compared with grain and ironware. The only thing Zhu Xieli is better than self-made people is that he has land and some money.

It's just that once a city is built here, it will face a situation of lack of supplies. Li Tan and Zhu Xieli have discussed this situation before, and the final decision is that once there is a water source here, they can plant some that can also be grown in the sand. Plant the food, and then improve the soil quality a little bit.

As for weapons and salt, Li Tan can only rely on Li Tan to cover Chen Cang secretly. I have to say that Li Tan really has a little truth in saying that he is here to aid the enemy.

But now...they discovered a saltwater lake near Suma City.

This basically solves a very important problem. It may not be so obvious to know that there is more food and less food, but the salt control is too strict, and Li Tan is ready to cheat.

Now...he can only say that Zhu Xieli is worthy of being the chosen one.

Zhu Xieli breathed a little heavily, but also seemed very excited. The endless saltwater lake brought him new hope.

He stretched out his hand to Li Tan and said, "My luck is actually bad. My best luck is in meeting you."

If it wasn't for Li Tan, maybe he would have died of his injuries in the first place.

This natural salt field is also because of Li Tan. Without Li Tan, they might not have a good way to deal with these monitor lizards. At that time, they would be forced to relocate, and naturally they would not find this salt field.

And even if they could repel the invading monitor lizards, without Li Tan's dog, they might not be able to find the monitor lizard's lair, let alone what if they found it?

They didn't have the ability to directly wipe out these monitor lizards, nor did they have the ability to scare the monitor lizards into panic and flee.

The discovery of the current salt field was made after this chain.

Li Tan knew that he was emotional, so he leaned over and kissed him, but Zhu Xieli held him tightly for a while and didn't let go.

By the time he stopped, Li Tan's eyes were full of tears, and his face was full of peach blossoms.

He touched his red and swollen lips, and saw that Zhu Xieli wanted to turn into a beast, so he said, "I'll ask Meng Zhiya to come over and get some equipment for you later, I'm afraid it's not enough to rely on manpower alone, eh , but also be careful to explore, I remember that generally salty lakes will be accompanied by other metals..."

Speaking of this, Li Tan suddenly remembered that even if he wanted to explore, he couldn't do it. He didn't have the corresponding equipment. How could he do this?

Li Tan felt heartbroken at the thought of guarding a huge treasure and being unable to use it.

Zhu Xieli nodded and said: "Well, I will send someone to survey the size of this place first."

Li Tan thought carefully for a while and said, "Let's go back first, and come back after I get some equipment delivered. I want to make a preliminary estimate of what's in this place."

Although it may not be possible to figure it out, the development of the current equipment is really too slow. Li Tan decided to beat Meng Zhiya when he went back, telling him to build the academy quickly, and then go back and tell the world that he needs people who know things.

It is definitely impossible to rob the liberal arts students from the imperial court, so let's rob the science students.

By the way, some scholarship plans that I didn't dare to formulate before can also be put on the agenda.

After Li Tan and Zhu Xieli left a few Shatuo tribe guards, they took the reluctant Chen Chong and Qi Jin back.

On the way back, the two kept discussing how beautiful the scenery was, completely ignorant of what kind of great treasures were hidden in those beautiful scenery.

Qi Jin even asked: "My lord, is the fairyland more beautiful than here?"

Li Tan: ...

He looked up at the sky and sighed, "Don't ask me, I don't know."

As a result, both Qi Jin and Chen Chong looked like I understood, I understood, and didn't ask any more questions, but Qi Jin turned his head to look at Zhu Xieli and asked: "Khan, can we come here next time? There is no one here. Does it belong to us if someone finds out? Can we move in here?"

Zhu Xieli smiled and said: "No, this place is not suitable for living, but since we found it, it belongs to us."

Qi Jin looked very excited and asked: "Then what is it called? Let's give it a name."

Zhu Xieli turned to look at Li Tan and asked, "What's the name?"

Li Tan was inexplicable: "Ask me what to do? You choose your own name."

Zhu Xieli took it for granted: "You found out, of course you are here."

Li Tan: I think you are embarrassing me, Fat Tiger.

However, under the hopeful eyes of Chen Chong, Jin Jin and others, he still bite the bullet and said: "Just... let's call it Shuiyintian."

It is very simple and rude, not at all like a name given by an elegant scholar.

Chen Chong's first reaction was: "Watermark Heaven? What's the allusion?"

Li Tan's face was full of helplessness, what allusions do you need if you understand so well?Where is the allusion?

However, this is also the success of his establishment of a schoolmaster in Chang'an. When he named it or casually said an idiom that he had never heard before, it would make people wonder where it came from?

As a result, not only Chen Chong, but also Zhu Xieli asked, "Where did you come from?"

Li Tan glanced at him: "There is no source to say it casually!"

Zhu Xieli saw that he was quite angry from embarrassment, so he didn't continue to tease him, but said: "This name is simple and easy to remember."

They casually talked about the scenery there, but never mentioned how precious it was.

Chen Chong and Qi Jin seemed to be aware of it, but seeing that Li Tan and Zhu Xieli didn't say anything, they didn't dare to ask more questions.

After returning, Zhu Xieli immediately invited all the elders of the clan over to discuss it.

He originally wanted to call Li Tan to go there with him, but he didn't expect that Li Tan waved his hand and turned to look for Meng Zhiya.

Li Tan felt that his identity was embarrassing after all, and he was not a real member of the Shatuo tribe. It would not be good to follow this kind of meeting, and although they seemed to be friendly on the surface, no one knew what the elders of the Shatuo tribe were thinking in their hearts. of.

In case someone wants to find an excuse to overthrow Zhu Xieli and replace him, then he is a ready handle.

Anyway, they were just discussing, and Zhu Xieli should tell him if the result came out, and he would not go there.

When Meng Zhiya saw Li Tan, he was dissatisfied: "I also want to see the monitor lizard, but you didn't take me there!"

That's right, Li Tan didn't tell Meng Zhiya when they set off. Later, Meng Zhiya searched everywhere and couldn't find anyone. Only then did he learn from other people that Li Tan and Zhu Xieli took people out to encircle monitor lizards!

Li Tan said very calmly: "Why are you a civil servant joining in the fun?"

Meng Zhiya sneered: "It's as if your force value is high!"

Li Tanli said bluntly: "My force value is not high, but I am dead!"

Meng Zhiya: I'm so angry, I can't refute it yet.

How could this man be so shameless?

Li Tan put his arms around his shoulders and said, "Okay, there are more important things that need your attention."

Meng Zhiya felt that he was about to suffocate, he couldn't help but said: "I beg you, hurry up and recruit some new people, you can't catch one and use it to death, can you?"

Li Tan looked at him innocently and said, "I can't help it. Originally, the only acquaintance provided by the system is a Mohist child. No matter how I recruit, I won't recruit another one."

Meng Zhiya said: "I think... Tang Sect, Wan Hua, these can all be used. One is specialized in researching hidden weapons of organs, and the other sect also has organ masters like monks and entourages, even if their level is not as good as mine. , but it can always come in handy, right?"

Li Tan was also impressed by his shamelessness, and said, "Although what you said makes sense, but... I'm sorry, I don't have the value of a mentor."

Meng Zhiya jumped up immediately: "Where is your master and apprentice worth?"

Li Tan silently took out Qingjinlian and Zaohuanglong.

Meng Zhiya: ...

Of course, in fact, he still has some mentors and apprentices who are close friends, but a Gongsun Chui just appeared inexplicably before, and now he comes here randomly, he is afraid of being suspected, and... who knows who he recruited, in case it is not necessary What about?

Meng Zhiya resigned himself to his fate and asked, "What do you want me to do this time?"

"We found a huge saltwater lake near the monitor lizard's lair," Li Tan said.

Meng Zhiya immediately reacted, his face full of disbelief: "Salt water lake?"

Li Tan nodded, and Meng Zhiya immediately said with emotion: "What kind of luck is this, Mr. Zhu Xie?"

Li Tan snorted and said, "Son of the Chosen One, what do you think?"

Meng Zhiya asked, "Do you want to build a saltworks?"

Li Tan nodded and said: "It's not just that, the most important thing is that there are many other ores associated with salt lakes, so I want to check what kind of ores are there."

Meng Zhiya was silent for a while and said, "Actually... this is not within my professional scope."

Li Tan raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are you trying to say you can't?"

Meng Zhiya was dying: "Who said that? I'm just... not very good at it, but one of the few students who came here last time specialized in geology, why don't you let him come?"

Li Tan was a little conflicted: "This salt lake is too important to Zhu Xieli. I don't want them to know that they are not particularly reliable."

Meng Zhiya said decisively, "Let him stay here. Salt lakes are hard to come by. I believe he will be willing."

Li Tan sighed: "That's the only way to go, I'll fix the book and send it back..."

Before he could finish his sentence, Chen Chong walked in holding a pigeon and said, "Your Majesty, urgent report from Liangzhou."

Li Tan unwrapped the small letter from the pigeon's leg, opened it and saw nine words on it: Anlu Mountain is like a broken bamboo, return quickly.
