Chapter 128 It Shouldn't Be You!
Xianyang Palace.
Qin Shihuang was looking at the bamboo slips in his hand, but he looked at one of the bamboo slips for a long time, but there was no movement.
Zhao Gao at the side saw it and shouted softly,
"His Majesty?"
Qin Shihuang came back to his senses immediately, put his eyes on the bamboo slips again, and said,
"What's the matter?"
Zhao Gao pointed to the bamboo slips in Qin Shihuang's hand cautiously, and said,
"Your Majesty, you took the bamboo slips down."
Qin Shihuang was taken aback for a moment, looked at the bamboo slips in his hand, blushed, threw the bamboo slips down, and said,
"I did it on purpose, look at you slave, when will you find out!"
Zhao Gao blinked and cursed, Your Majesty, you can't do this even if you're lying.
Of course, he dared not say that.
"It's the old slave's fault."
When Qin Shihuang was interrupted by Zhao Gao, he simply put down the bamboo slips in his hand, got up and took two steps, saying,
"Is there any reward for Lang'er?"
Zhao Gao returned with a smile,
"Your Majesty, considering the time, Young Master Lang has only arrived in Liaodong County not long ago. How could he reply so quickly?"
"I probably haven't gone to the salt field yet, I'm afraid I've only set foot in Zhuangzi now."
"Your Majesty, there is no need to worry. In a few days, there must be a reply."
Then Qin Shihuang nodded, looked at the smile on Zhao Gao's face, coughed feignedly, and said,
"I'm not in a hurry, after all, it's my flesh and blood, so just ask."
Zhao Gao nodded and went back,
"What your Majesty said is that the son Fusu and the others have sent a reply. Would you like to read it?"
Qin Shihuang was taken aback for a moment,
"Really? Let's see then. Where is the letter?"
Zhao Gao returned,
"Your Majesty, the letter is on your desk. You were dealing with government affairs at the time, so you just put it there."
Qin Shihuang looked down, and sure enough, under a roll of bamboo slips, there were several letters in cloth and silk.
Qin Shihuang couldn't hold back anymore, and with a bit of embarrassment turned into anger, he said to Zhao Gao,
"How come there are so many government affairs? Cover up all the letters, what are you doing for Zhong Shuling?"
Zhao Gao's old face suddenly collapsed, and he said aggrievedly,
"Your Majesty, this old slave has been following you these days..."
Qin Shihuang wanted to say something else, but a servant outside the door reported back,
"Your Majesty, there is a man named Ah Fu outside the palace gate, holding your warrant to ask to see him."
"Ah Fu?"
Qin Shihuang was taken aback for a moment, and then immediately said,
"Quick pass!"
Soon Uncle Fu appeared at the gate of the palace. As soon as he saw Qin Shihuang, he took out the letter and said,
"Patriarch! Your son has sent you a letter!"
Qin Shihuang's eyes lit up immediately, he took the letter and opened it, looking directly at it.
Soon a smile appeared on his face, after reading a piece of cloth, he said,
"I didn't expect Lang'er to master the salt field so quickly! Very good!"
Zhao Gao also showed a hint of surprise,
"Gong Zilang's movements are so fast?"
Qin Shihuang nodded and looked at the other piece of cloth, but the next moment, his expression turned serious on the bamboo slip.
After reading it, he put away the cloth and said,
"Send the master builder to come to me and bring two stonemasons."
"Ah Fu, go to the palace next to you to rest, I will call you after I write a reply."
Fu Bo backed away immediately, Zhao Gao glanced at the bamboo slips, the young master helped Su and their letters, and went out.
At this time, Liaodong County.
On the road leading to the county seat, a group of carriages was slowly driving.
In a carriage, Hu Hai was half lying in it, and said with a sigh,
"Father should have read our letter, when will he let us go back?"
Ying Yinman on the side said angrily,
"Put your feet away! You want to go back before we get there."
Hu Hai looked at Ying Yinman and suddenly became angry,
"You still have the nerve to say that it's because you ran out privately and made the emperor lose his temper."
"Originally, it was just to reward the sergeants, but now it has become a military service! This time, if you don't die, you will have to peel off your skin."
Ying Yinman pouted and said,
"I just wanted to go out of the palace to find someone. It's all your fault. I shouted so loudly that the guards overheard me."
Hu Hai snorted coldly and said,
"Looking for someone, I think you should go to Brother Lang, that's it, Brother Lang is in Xianyang, you go to Liaodong."
"See how you find it!"
Ying Yinman blushed and said,
"Who said I went to find him!"
Hu Hai pouted,
"It's as if you know other people outside Xianyang City."
Ying Yinman's eyes widened, wanting to say something else.
Suddenly, a rush of horseshoes sounded from the side, and then went away.
"Who is riding a horse on the road?"
Hu Hai frowned, lifted the curtains of the car, and saw the backs of a group of young men leaving on horseback.
"Huh? Why do I feel that this team is a bit like Langge Zhuangzi?"
"No, none of those people can ride a horse."
This group of fast horses entered the county seat directly, and after dismounting at the gate of the city, one of the teenagers said to the leader,
"Patriarch, don't we rush back to the saltworks today?"
Zhao Lang led the horse and said,
"Don't worry, go to the slave market to buy some slaves, the saltworks are not manned enough."
If Zhao Lang wanted to expand production in the future, the hundred or so slaves would naturally not be enough.
Soon, a group of people came to the slave market where they had been before. This time, many people showed a bit of fear when they saw Zhao Lang.
They didn't forget that this group of teenagers killed Dao Scar.
"Family, can we still choose those teenagers this time?"
Looking at the people who are about the same age as him in the slave market, he couldn't help but ask.
Zhao Lang was about to reply, when suddenly a figure flashed by not far away, his eyes lit up, and he said to Qu Si,
"Today we will buy a hundred slaves first, you must be, I will leave first."
After speaking, he turned and left.
Immediately, Qusi excitedly called the slave merchant, ready to place an order.
But Zhao Lang came at this time, in front of an old Taoist holding a curtain, and said with a smile,
"Old Daoist, last time you said that I had a bloody disaster, the calculation was quite accurate."
"Today, I want to make another calculation."
When the old Taoist saw Zhao Lang, he was taken aback for a moment, then a flash of astonishment flashed in his eyes, and said,
"Why are you here?"
"It shouldn't be you!"
(Third watch! Hurry up and praise me!)
