Chapter 166 Shen Liqing asks for help

Eyes are deep amber, full of exploration.

Baicaoshi knew that she was on the road of falling off the horse all the time, so she smiled awkwardly, "That's right, the ancient wise man."

Anyway, let’s push it to the ancients.

Zhe Yu didn't struggle any more, he carried the lantern and headed towards the back mountain of the academy with the poem of Baicao.

The whole journey was silent, and the atmosphere was a bit dull. Baicaoshi was about to pick a topic, when Zheyu said: "Today, I found a lot of potions at the Yinhook Casino. I originally planned to have a trial today to see if there are any big fish behind. The result..."

Baicaoshi can imagine that this is probably the reason why Zhe Yu is not interested, and it must be hindered by something. "Then what?"

"Zhizhou said, Zheyu, I admire you very much, but there are more important matters right now, which is the Gongjun salt case. If you can cooperate with this matter and show your face in front of King Xun, then you will be able to make a fortune in the future, just around the corner .Stop messing around with bath bean recipes and casinos."

The calmer, the more turbulent.

Baicaoshi can feel the subtle changes in Oruha's emotions. "Since ancient times, the government and businessmen have colluded, and Yinhook Gambling House can grow so big in Wanzhou. Maybe it has done a lot of filial piety to the Zhizhou. The government is also happy to turn a blind eye."

Zhe Yu felt a little hot in his chest.

In this world, at least there are people who understand him. Understand his anger, understand his displeasure.

Holding the lantern in one hand, and holding Baicaoshi's hand in the other.

Baicaoshi was taken aback, although it was not the first time the two held hands, but it was different at this moment.

"It's too dark tonight, don't fall."

Haha, Baicaoshi laughed.

Several large barrels are placed in the back mountain, and a strong pungent smell can be smelled from a long distance. When he came to the front, the lantern was shining, and Baicaoshi looked at it carefully.

As a student of Chinese medicine, the chemistry of Baicaoshi is average, but salt is also a traditional Chinese medicine. Preliminarily judged that these poisonous salts contained more calcium, magnesium, barium ions and sulfate radicals, Baicaoshi already had a rough idea in mind.

However, in order to prevent Zhe Yuqi from becoming suspicious, she suggested: How about this, let's look for books together, maybe there are good ideas in ancient books. In particular, some prescriptions for alchemy and medicine made by sorcerers may work. "

**

When Zheyu buried himself in collecting books, Baicaoshi made a kind of "magic salt".

Of course, it’s not really magic, but some dried mushrooms, shrimp skins and other very fresh substances are added to the salt, and then ground together. The umami and the saltiness of the salt are combined to enhance their respective flavors. She went to Quanjufang and shared several new recipes with Yam and the chefs in time.

Quanjufang changed the menu in time.

And spread among the guests who came to eat that day.

Wanzhou Station.

Ying Zhexun has sent an urgent document to the imperial court for eight hundred miles, requesting to mobilize available salt from the neighboring prefectures and counties. It is uncertain how long it will take for other prefectures and counties to be transferred, so the impact of the salt tribute this time is too great, and other prefectures and counties have also been greatly affected. There is also a process for the court's decree to be issued.

In addition, Ying Zhexun had already called the prefect and officials to hold a meeting for most of the day. Everyone blushed and their necks were thick, but they didn't come up with a good suggestion.

At dusk, someone came to report, "My lord, there is a student in Kunming Academy who claims to be surnamed Shen and asks to see him."

In the Great Yan Dynasty, the most noble surname was Ying, followed by Shen.

"welcome."

A moment later, a handsome young man walked into Ying Zhexun's temporary office study.

"My lord, Li Qing is here." The young man saluted with his hands crossed, "This time, Li Qing is willing to work for the lord in the Salt Case in Gongjun County."

The person who came was Shen Li, or Shen Liqing. Although she is dressed as a man, the phoenix bird pattern on her forehead is clear.

"You should have a daughter like Shen Liqing. Mrs. Shen gave birth to a good granddaughter, and the Shen family raised a good daughter. Come and have a cup of tea!" Ying Zhefeng was overjoyed, and the words of praise were like pouring out of his mouth, and he opened his mouth, "People from Yanjing I didn't praise you in vain. Li Qing, you came at the right time, what can you do for this case?"

Shen Liqing sat down beside him, "My lord, at this moment, we must use our strength wisely and concentrate all available salt to get through the crisis. This is my idea."
