What the other party said before, that a jade mine was discovered is probably true.

When he came to Xinghan City, he brought a lot of Hetian jade, even Lu Chensheng was stunned.

There are still a few very large jade stones inside, like a large stone.

After estimating the value, it must be a million taels of silver.

However, after Lu Chensheng lowered the price, he gave the other party some products, which made the other party leave satisfied.

Before leaving, he also said that he would often come to take care of Lu Chensheng's business in the future.

Seeing the other party's cheerful appearance, Lu Chensheng once thought that he was at a loss instead.

Carefully calculating the value of these Hetian jades, no matter how you look at it, it is Lu Chensheng who has made a lot of money.

But the price that the other party answered immediately, and when the other party was leaving, he looked so happy that he wanted to tell everyone.

Lu Chensheng had reason to doubt, did he lose money?

However, Lu Chensheng couldn't come up with any evidence, so he could only think that when the other party came next time, he was lowering the price to see.

The other party agreed too readily, so why can't he hesitate to make him feel that he is the one who has made money?

When Lu Chensheng thought of the caravan in the Western Regions, he felt like he was at a big loss.

Hetian jade was put into the bank, and it was not touched for the time being.

If you wait until you are short of money, you can exchange it for a lot of money.

The business has been booming this year. In just the first half of the year, they have already earned more than 200 million yuan.

If they were making more money, those three dynasties might not be able to make as much money as Lu Chensheng could.

Chapter 5 and Three Can't Be Wrong

The days of breezy spring will pass quickly.

The number of children with paper kites gradually decreased.

Some of the ways that Lu Chensheng taught the children before were all taught to others by them.

In my spare time, seeing these children playing in groups is quite interesting.

The sailing boats sailed into Xinghan city one by one, carrying boxes of fruits from the boats.

There are small ice cubes on the top of the box to keep it fresh.

The merchants of Chengzhou Kingdom all looked enviously in their eyes when they saw such a scene.

With this canal, it really is much more convenient, and the cargo capacity is far beyond what a horse-drawn carriage can match.

"It's still comfortable in Da Cang Kingdom. With this ship, the speed of making money is several times higher than before."

The Jiang country businessman on the side looked at the merchant ship with envy on his face.

There are still many benefits to coming to this star Seoul.

Not to mention delicacies that cannot be eaten in other places, and in summer, they can also eat extremely fresh fruits at low prices.

In the past, it would have been very difficult for them to eat such fresh fruits.

And even if there is, the price is extremely expensive.

It will definitely not be like what it is now, eating low-priced and extremely fresh fruits here.

The more they think about it, the more they envy the people here.

"Your Jiang country is also very good, and now a road has been built to the border of your Jiang country. The road is so spacious that you can drive freely, and it is extremely safe.

Although the boat is good, it is extremely boring to stay on the boat all the time. If you are tired from the journey, you can still come down to rest. What a wonderful thing! "

A few businessmen from Dacang Kingdom got off the boat on the side, and after hearing the words, they took a look at each other and recognized each other.

I have come and gone here more times, I see each other often, and I am familiar with each other after coming and going.

"It's good, but the cargo capacity is far from comparable to that of your ship. It seems that the Chengzhou Kingdom is also digging a canal. When the time comes, it will be dug through, but only the Jiang Kingdom will not have a canal."

Having said that, he sighed again and again.

The rest of the people were silent for a while, then shook their heads again and again.

"Being able to build roads is already very good, and I don't even look at what your emperor did to Mr. Lu. If you ask me to say that Mr. Lu has such a talent, he can be in the cabinet wherever he is placed.

You, Jiang Guo, don't take each other seriously at all.

I've heard that one mu of land in Xinghan City can already produce more than 200 catties of grain, and those fields outside are worth tens of thousands of mu of land. If one mu of land has more than 200 catties, that would be amazing number?

If this can be promoted, no matter which country it is, it will have a good harvest, right? "

Having said that, a businessman on the side suddenly lowered his voice.

They were a little worried, if talking about such a thing was regarded as something subtle, they would be arrested.

In Star Seoul, there are some things that are confidential, and they are not allowed to inquire and discuss.

"More than 200 catties? Did you make a mistake? How could there be such a high yield? This crop is only 140 catties even if it is a bumper harvest, right?"

The other person on the side heard the words, and immediately asked a question in surprise.

That's a whole hundred catties more. If it's true, wouldn't it be a sensation in the world?

Presumably at that time, there will be countless people who want to know how this is planted.

"There is absolutely no mistake. This is what I heard from a commoner here in the tavern before. The other party helped harvest the grain before, and then weighed it. How could there be a mistake?"

The speaker's face was full of indisputable expressions.

"You also know that the current appearance of the people here, such a lie would not be done at all, or they would not bother to do it."

These words made everyone nod their heads one after another.

Having been with the people here for a long time, they all know that the other party will never lie about such things in normal life.

Even if someone loses money on the road, it will be handed over to the Yamen, and then a notice will be pasted up for people to collect.

It can be said that the folk customs here are already extremely simple.

"The output of more than 200 catties, those fields outside are afraid that when they harvest, it will definitely be amazing, right?"

Everyone looked at each other, feeling extremely surprised in their hearts.

"Forget it, this matter has nothing to do with us. Although we are farming outside, we are still purchasing grain here. We are not making less money."

After thinking about it, the other businessman on the side was not going to continue talking about this matter.

The fields outside looked extremely large, and they should be able to receive a lot of food during the autumn harvest.

But even so, Xing Seoul is still buying grain.

But this is also understandable. After all, the food planted outside has not been harvested, and with so many people in Xing Seoul, they have to eat it every day.

This grain is being consumed continuously, and Mr. Lu is thinking of hoarding some grain for a rainy day.

Under such circumstances, the other party is still buying grain, so it makes sense.

Everyone looked at each other and stopped talking. Instead, they exchanged some other things. They were all talking about the prices of some commodities, where things became cheaper, or if they needed something, who? there.

It's an exchange of information.

The goods they lack can be collected here, and then they can bring the other party to bring them to themselves next time, and bring them back when they come back, so that they can make a fortune.

Although the things here in Xing Seoul are extremely precious, it is also easier for the merchants who come here to make money after they have a circle.

Under the city wall, the mountains that had been cut down were now planted with many peach trees.

At a glance, a lot of peaches have already grown at this moment, and it looks like it has been fruitful.

No one dared to pick the peaches here, because everyone knew that Lu Chensheng picked them one by one, and whoever dared to pick the peaches would definitely be reprimanded.

"The shopkeeper, I have already checked. The people who wanted to buy the war horse before were sent by Jiang Guo's royal family, and they are probably that Jiang Jinjing."

A Jin Yiwei walked up to Lu Chensheng, bowed his head and said to Lu Chensheng with fists in his hands.

Some time ago, a group of businessmen suddenly came and found Lu Chensheng directly, saying that they wanted to buy war horses, and the price they offered was extremely generous.

Lu Chensheng was a little puzzled at the time, and after having someone investigate it, it turned out that Jiang Jinjing really sent someone to buy it.

Presumably, I knew that the other two countries now have their own cavalry, but Jiang Guo does not have such cavalry, so I am a little anxious.

Chapter 5 and Four

"Boss, since you know it's the caravan secretly sent by Jiang Guo, is this war horse still for sale?"

Gu Zhifang stood aside and asked a question.

Lu Chensheng's face was calm, "Why do you want to sell it? I have already made a lot of money by selling war horses and cattle. What's more, there are not many war horses left. There is no need to sell them."

The amount sold to the two countries last time was almost all harvested, so there is no need to sell it again.

Investigating this matter, I just want to know who is buying this war horse.

You know, it is also possible for those vassal kings who inherited the state of Zhou.

Hearing this, Gu Zhifang immediately felt relieved, it would be best if the shopkeeper wasn't selling any more.

"When will the Chengzhou canal be repaired?"

Lu Chensheng turned his head and asked about the progress of Wang Tianxun's canal construction.

"According to the progress calculation, around the end of the year, the canal will be able to be repaired to the Chengzhou border fortress, but it may take several years to completely repair this canal.

The shopkeeper should know that we don't have many people, and we can make such a progress because the people outside the city can call out some people to help from time to time. "

The people outside the city also need to take care of the fields.

Weeding, weeding, and fertilization all require the people to rely on manpower to do it bit by bit.

Therefore, it will be more troublesome.

Building the canal requires a lot of manpower, and the people outside can only help out when they have a little spare time.

The frontier fortress was not built until the end of the year.

Lu Chensheng thought about it, and in terms of this progress, it was already considered good.

"Well, there's no rush for engineering matters, and it's not bad to have such a progress."

Lu Chensheng replied, letting Wang Tianxun breathe a sigh of relief, fearing that Lu Chensheng might be dissatisfied with the progress.

Lu Chensheng asked again, and let Wang Tianxun go down after some other things were clarified.

Seeing the other party walking away, Gu Zhifang said softly.

"Shopkeeper, Wang Tianxun and the others haven't found any problems for the time being, but we found out that one of Wang Tianxun's subordinates has secretly communicated with the Great Cang Kingdom."

"So this person has nothing to do with Wang Tianxun?"

Hearing this, Lu Chensheng couldn't help but pause for a while at work.

Wang Tianxun's ability to do things is not bad, and Lu Chensheng feels that he is quite comfortable in commanding him.

I just hope there is nothing wrong with this person.

"I haven't found it for the time being, but this person is going to be kept. The news that this person knows is negligible. If caught now, it will definitely make the rest of the people hide deeper. If they are kept, it will be better.

Perhaps a big fish can be caught. "

Gu Zhifang has learned badly by now, and when he finds such a person, he thinks not about taking it directly, but thinking about how he can rely on such a bait to catch bigger fish.

"Well, then do as you wish."

Lu Chensheng didn't object, he was just a little guy, so it's not a big deal to keep it for now.

When Gu Zhifang saw that Lu Chensheng responded, he, who had nothing to do with his abilities, retreated directly, leaving the rest of the people to protect Lu Chensheng.

Lu Chensheng stayed for a while, planted some more peaches, and returned home.

The peach tree grows well, and the peaches produced are also very tasty, crisp and delicious.

When Lu Chensheng eats peaches, he prefers to eat those that are a little bit crunchy. If the peaches are too soft, they will not taste good.

Qiongyue is holding Yiyi in her arms, while Bai Yi is holding Yueyue in her arms, and the two of them have started to switch.

Lu Chensheng looked at and shook his head, before he could say anything, Xiaoyu saw the peach brought back by Lu Chensheng, and hurriedly took it and washed it.
