When talking about business, Bai Shan also put away the smile on his face and said seriously: "It's not a lot, it's one hundred and eighty bags of official salt at the moment."
The prince raised his eyebrows, "I remember your new salt farm has only been open for about two months, right?"
"yes."
This is very good. The prince couldn't help but knock his fingers on the table, nodded and said: "I want to go to the salt field to take a look."
Bai Shan said there was no problem, "When does Your Highness plan to go?"
The prince felt that this matter should be done sooner rather than later, so he said: "Let's go after dinner."
Bai Shan: "...Your Highness, won't you stay longer in Qingzhou City?"
The prince glanced at him and said, "I came here for the salt farm, why are you staying here?"
This is what he dislikes most about Bai Erlang. When he goes to this place, he thinks it's strange and wants to stay. When he goes to that place, he thinks it's nice and wants to stay for a night and play for half a day. Does he have a lot of time?
Bai Shan touched his nose, apologized to Governor Guo in his heart, and then said, "What do you think, Your Highness?"
Bai Shanshan pointedly said: "The two censors and Mr. Tang..."
The corners of the prince's lips curled up slightly and he said, "Bring them with you, as well as your governor."
He looked at Bai Shan with bright eyes and asked him, "Salt is indeed produced by the sun, and the yield is indeed so high, can it be eaten?"
Bai Shan said seriously: "It's true."
The prince nodded and said seriously: "I have brought so many people to support you, so don't ruin the occasion."
Bai Shan immediately understood the prince's plan, stood up and saluted solemnly, "I will live up to your highness's trust."
The prince nodded, then turned to look at Zhou Man, "Mingda and the consort are staying in Qingzhou, saying they want to escape the summer heat."
The prince said with a look of disgust on his face, "To escape the summer heat in a place that is hotter and humid than the capital, tsk, that's all. I don't care about them. You should pay more attention and don't let them get sick. They still have Gu's guarantee when they go out."
Zhou Man immediately agreed and asked with a smile, "How long can Princess and the others stay?"
The prince glanced at her and said, "Save it until the summer heat in the capital passes."
It doesn't seem that long at all.
The prince was not willing to continue on this topic, so he stood up and said, "Let's go and have breakfast."
Breakfast was separate. Governor Guo wanted to have breakfast with the prince at the same table, but the prince refused and asked Eunuch Wu to let them prepare. They would go directly to Beihai County later.
Governor Guo didn't expect the prince to be so impatient and wanted to entertain him warmly, but he couldn't even see anyone now.
"Where are Master Bai and Master Zhou?"
Governor Guo's aide said: "The prince has left us two to have breakfast together."
He paused and then said: "The princess and the consort will also be together."
As expected of the prince's companion and the consort's senior brother and sister, the treatment is very different from them.
Governor Guo sighed and turned around to entertain the prince's accompanying officials.
Bai Shan and Zhou Man were accompanying the prince to have breakfast.
The breakfast prepared by the governor's office for the prince was quite good, and both of them ate it with gusto.
The prince's appetite was already good. When he looked up and saw Zhou Man, Bai Shan and Bai Erlang, who had equally good appetites, his appetite became even better.
Mingda chewed slowly and ate a bowl of millet porridge, and then ate half of the meat pie and couldn't use any more.
Bai Erlang, who had just eaten a bowl of noodles, took the half of the meat pie and ate it, and then ate a steamed bun and an egg...
The prince was very satisfied when he saw this. The more he eats, the stronger he becomes. This is what a man is.
However, the prince still disliked Bai Erlang and said: "From now on, I will get up early every day to practice swordsmanship. I don't expect you to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, and you can't be incapable of binding a chicken."
Bai Erlang grabbed the chopsticks and said, "...Your Highness, I am a civil servant."
The prince was even more disgusted, "How many years have you been in the Hanlin Academy? Have you written a book? When do you plan to leave the Hanlin Academy to study in the Six Parts?"
Bai Erlang: "...The Hanlin Academy is also pretty good."
He doesn't want to leave the Hanlin Academy yet.
The prince somewhat hated the fact that iron cannot become steel. Although Mingda didn't need Bai Erlang to fight for her glory and wealth, she was already very wealthy, but the prince still looked down upon Bai Erlang who was not enterprising.
But Mingda liked Bai Erlang's indifference very much, and said to the prince: "Brother Prince, is there any place in the court where the nobles are as noble as the Hanlin Academy?"
The prince glanced at her and said nothing.
Bai Shan and Zhou Man were holding bowls, but they couldn't help but quietly raise their eyes to glance at Bai Erlang, pursing their lips in joy.
After dinner, the prince went out to meet Governor Guo and others. They only brought simple luggage and obviously did not intend to live in Beihai County.
But Bai Erlang and Princess Mingda had brought their luggage with them. The prince didn't say anything when he saw it. Instead, he warned: "If you go to Beihai County, you should stay in the county town and don't run around."
Mingda immediately expressed his objection, "Brother Prince, I want to see the sea."
The prince thought for a while and quickly compromised, "That's okay."
Zhou Man finally understood the benefits of the prince's coming. If he were the emperor, I don't know how much extra talk he would have to waste.
When Governor Guo saw the prince, he immediately stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, the carriages and horses are ready."
The prince nodded slightly, "Let's go."
The prince went forward first, Bai Shan and Zhou Man lagged behind, and then quietly sneaked up to Tang He and Yin You.
Tang He and Yin You also stood and waited for them. When they arrived, they couldn't help but ask, "Have you grown taller?"
The two of them were very happy when they heard this, especially Zhou Man, who looked at Tang He expectantly, "Brother Tang, am I much taller?"
Tang He only glanced at her and said perfunctorily: "A lot taller," and then looked at Bai Shan seriously, "She's as tall as me. If she grows older, won't she be taller than me?"
Yin You on the side said objectively: "Senior Brother Tang, Bai Shan is already slightly taller than you."
Tang He:......
Zhou Man snorted softly, turned to Yin You and asked, "Your grandmother also asked you to travel far away?"
Yin You smiled slightly and said, "Grandma understands me very well."
Not only Zhou Man and Bai Shan, but also Tang He looked at him suspiciously.
The prince's motorcade in front had already set off, Tang He said: "Let's go."
Only then did Daji and the others lead Bai Shan and his horses over, "Master Lang, I asked them to pack their things at the inn and go back."
Bai Shan nodded, "Let me find Fang Xian Cheng and take a shortcut back to the county seat to prepare."
Daji agreed, and Bai Shan rode up to follow the team.
The prince brought many people with him, and all the accompanying officials followed him to Beihai County. Governor Guo brought many officials with him at the governor's office, and County Magistrate Lu also followed, so the convoy was huge. Bai Shan and the others wanted to
He whispered, so he left the team of the Governor's Mansion and mingled with Tang Heyin or.
Bai Erlang sat with Mingda in the carriage for a while, then slipped out and mingled among them.
The affairs of Yanzheng were confidential. Although Tang He had heard some rumors, he didn't know much about it. He couldn't help but ask Bai Shan, "What secrets do you have in Beihai County?"
