The night tonight is very dark, dark clouds cover the night sky in Chang'an. It is drizzling at night. In an inn, I sat in the room and looked at the figure outside the house and listened to what the other party said.

"My owner has already discussed with Li Zheng, the Duke of Jingyang County, that he will deliver the food outside Chang'an City tomorrow, and everything will follow the old rules."

Sitting in the dark room, staring at the figure carrying the oil lamp outside the door, I wanted to rush up and open the door to see who the other party was.

"Don't think about opening the door, you will die once this door is opened."

He took back his steps and whispered: "The master can actually buy the food in Li Zheng's hand."

The other party whispered: "The master is naturally powerful. As long as you help the master get things done, you will be given the identity of a good family member."

I don’t care about my identity, but I care more about who I bought myself.

The other party stuffed a letter through the crack of the door and whispered: "This is what the master gave to you. You can do things according to the contents of the letter."

The figure left the door and breathed the air in the room with satisfaction. It took a while before I picked up the letter.

Now Chang'an is in strict inspection, and the court has become alert.

Of course I know that what I do is a business that loses my head

The next day, it was just dawn.

Walking on the Zhuque Street in Chang'an, I saw the notice posted at the entrance of Dali Temple.

Private weapons trafficking is a serious crime. The Dali Temple notice has written a large article, which is nothing more than saying that the inspectors are rewarded.

Xu Jingzong was eating a cake and staring at the other end of the street.

Until he left the gate of Dali Temple, Xu Jingzong also lowered his head and ate his own cake.

He was not afraid of walking into Dali Temple with satisfaction, and now he didn't know anything.

Even if I go to Dali Temple, I can't find anything.

I still came to Chang'an City and saw people transporting food coming.

He turned over and followed the team silently.

This time it was the second time that things were shipped out of customs.

The person is not much different from the previous one.

It seems that there are only one group of people, and none of them have been replaced.

The caravan headed towards Longyou.

These people will not stop when transporting things except for necessary rest and sleep.

Basically, he can't speak and is very silent.

He also tried to talk to these people, no matter how he asked, he ignored him.

If they hadn't passed the pass, they would have talked to the defenders for a few words, and they really suspected that these people were fools.

I sent the letter from last night in my arms.

Once again, I was sure that the person who could do these business must be a big shot, and even the food in the hands of Li Zheng, the Duke of Jingyang County, could be bought.

Who is Li Zheng?

The youngest county magistrate in the history of the Tang Dynasty.

He was appointed as the Jingyang Order at the age of twelve, and at the age of thirteen, he was already a county marquis.

Now he has become a county magistrate.

Moreover, Li Zheng has a strange temper and will not contact ordinary people.

It is said that even the powerful and powerful in the court cannot see Li Zheng once.

Li Zheng was young. Although he was not a high-ranking official, most people dared not imagine how fast he was to be promoted.

After walking for a few days, I arrived at the Longyou area and went smoothly outside the pass. As usual, I was satisfied to convey my words to the people on both sides.

Translate Guanzhong dialect into Tubo dialect, translate Tubo dialect into Guanzhong dialect, and inform both sides.

The money was handed over and the goods were delivered in the same hand, and it was very smooth.

He rode his horse to follow these Tubo people all the way to the Tubo territory.

Looking at the letter in your hand, it was something that your master asked him to do.

It says step by step plan, and gain the trust of Lu Dongzan or Songzan Gampo, and find out how much surplus there is in the Tubo treasury today.

It took me half a month to reach the Tubo camp.

It was still the same after arriving here, the Tubo people did not like them very much.

I went back and forth twice, and I was satisfied that I was already used to this kind of thing.

Jingyang

At this moment, there are still four months left before Li Zheng’s wedding date.

Li Lizhi has been able to come to Jingyang less and less.

The custody in the palace is becoming more and more strict.

Li Lizhi complained, and was still eating candied haws while eating them. The little tiger's teeth were biting fiercely.

"This thing is delicious, how do you make it?" Li Lizhi asked curiously.

"This thing is called candied haws, and the method is very simple. It is done by wrapping the hawthorn in syrup."

Li Lizhi nodded, it was indeed very simple.

I felt like I asked an irrelevant word.

Seeing that Li Zheng had been writing and painting on a map, Li Lizhi asked again: "What are you doing?"

“I’m planning for minerals.”

"mineral?"

"That's right, the iron ore in Guanzhong is inexhaustible. These are all property and cannot be used randomly."

Li Lizhi nodded and said, "This princess knows that it is said that Emperor Yang of Sui was in a state of war and wanted to build iron tools to fight, and hollowed out several mountains."

The mining method in ancient times was simple and the utilization rate was very low.

In fact, as long as the steel smelting technology is improved, the characteristics of steel can be better utilized.

Moreover, the ironware will be thrown away after use and wait for rust to grow. It is a waste not to be used again.

The secondary utilization of steel requires steelmaking furnaces, which are very difficult to make.

With today's technology, it's hard to do it.

But I don't want to miss this thing.

After Yuchi Gong brought the soldiers, he would register them and get registered with the household registration in Jingyang.

The territory is 14,600 acres and the population is 19,300.

New mission: population increased to 30,000.

Mission Reward: Library stage three.

The three stages of the library should have more important technologies in future generations.

There are many valuable books in the second phase of the library.

But there are not many books involving industry.

Li Zheng said: "Your Highness, did General Yuchi Gong tell His Majesty that he gave me the soldiers? Almost a month has passed and there is no news yet."

Li Lizhi turned her head stubbornly while eating candied haws, "You Li Zheng will be anxious about such a small matter?"

"Of course I'm anxious." Li Zheng drank tea and almost said that he still had thousands of tons of iron ore and had no place to use it.

Li Lizhi ate candied haws and said, "Then why are you not anxious about our marriage?"

"This is not urgent."

Li Lizhi stared at Li Zheng's expression and said, "You regret it and don't want to marry me anymore. Besides, I'm not young anymore."

Li Zheng glanced at Li Lizhi's chest and smiled disdainfully, "It's still so young."

"you!"

Li Lizhi wanted to pick up the candied haws and throw them at Li Zheng, but she thought it was a waste to throw such delicious food as candied haws to Li Zheng.

After biting a bite of candied haws, Li Lizhi seemed to compromise and lowered her head and said, "There are many iron ore in Guanzhong. It is indeed as you said that it is not inexhaustible. If it is over-mined, one day all the mountains will be hollowed out."
