Chapter 57

Tang Lao, the patriarch of Tang Village, is in his [-]s this year. He looks like he is in his early [-]s. He is in high spirits.I heard that he would wake up at three watch every day and climb to the top of the mountain by himself. After punching, the sun just rose.Every time he would incense sticks when the sun was rising, he would inhale hard, exhale hard, and then mutter to himself again, as if happy or disappointed when he finished speaking, walking slowly. go back.

When they walked back, the daughters-in-law had already prepared breakfast, and the whole family had breakfast together.Big and small, noisy, noisy, making people headache.Since the old man was 70 years old, he has said that he has started to live alone, and someone will bring him breakfast and dinner.When he needs something or has something to do, he will speak up, and no one else will interfere at other times.

Today, the old man, he focused on several important people early in the morning, and has been discussing it for a long time, obviously he is already deciding something.He was wearing a maroon Tang suit today, his clothes were neat and neat, not even the dry tobacco pouch that he liked to eat on weekdays, holding a cup of tea in his hand, waiting for the arrival of the guests.

I heard that Feng Zhixian and the others had some accidents on the way. When Tang Sizhe went to pick them up, there were some small accidents. Fortunately, someone finally invited them.

"Is there something wrong with Zhe'er?" The old man asked the eldest son, Tang Zhongqing.

"Father, Zhe'er is alive and kicking." Tang Zhongqing looked 50 years old, at first glance he was older than his father.Fortunately for him, he married a virtuous and beautiful daughter-in-law, and gave him a son and a daughter, Tang Sizhe and Tang Sirui.Tang Sitian is the daughter of Tang Sizhe's second uncle, and she was also well-bred.She is a beauty, so Tang Sirui will be compared every time.After Tang Sirui saw Gu Yun today, she wished she could hide him from her younger sister.

"Well, that's fine. Let's let him in after we finish talking about business." After Tang Lao finished speaking, he left his second son, third son, and two deliberation elders in the clan to stay here to discuss matters. .

"Yes, Dad." Tang Zhongqing has no right to speak at home, because he has no outstanding achievements, and naturally he has no right to speak.

No matter who you are and what position you are in, you have to do something to be looked up to by others, otherwise you can only do nothing in your life.

"I don't know what Mr. Tang invited me to discuss today, but there is something wrong with Yanchi?" After Feng Zhixian sat down, he hurriedly asked Mr. Xiang Tang before taking a sip of tea. After all, there were still urgent matters to deal with.Yesterday they went to the village for a white run, but they didn't find any important information, and Tang Xiaorou disappeared again.That bandit dared to kidnap a young child in broad daylight, and he was bold enough.If the case cannot be solved as soon as possible, I am afraid that the daring person will continue to do evil.

"Hahahaha, Master Feng is really good, he guessed it right away." Elder Tang looked very happy, and his voice turned sharply after speaking. "But this time it's not a bad thing, it's a big good thing."

"Oh, what a great thing? I'd like to hear about it."

Gu Yunzhi sat aside and listened quietly, but did not move the tea beside him.

"Is the tea unappetizing?" Tang Lao paid great attention to details.

"I'm not thirsty for now, thank you!" Gu Yunzhi said politely.But he didn't know what the old man wanted to say.

After thinking about it, he said, "How about I go outside and talk about things."

"That's fine." Tang Lao said slightly euphemistically, but because Gu Yunzhi was very knowledgeable, he was a little satisfied.

"Mid-Autumn Festival, you take the young pavilion master out for a walk." Tang Zhongqiu is the second son of Tang Lao, who is knowledgeable and polite.

Seeing them go out, Tang Laocai was very cautious and ordered someone to show the contents of the bowl to Feng Zhixian.

"Please, Lord Feng, see what this is?"

Feng Zhixian looked at it, his eyes narrowed, and his expression became cautious.

Just listen to Tang Laodao: "This is just a preliminary refinement and there is such a result. If we increase production and make all our equipment like this, please tell me, Mr. Feng, whether our Tangjia Village will be able to reach a new level."

Feng Zhixian confirmed that it was fine salt, and immediately assured: "As long as Mr. Tang can turn all these salts into fine salt like this, there will be no problem. Don't say that you are going to be promoted to an official position, it's Mr. Tang, I want it. In the entire Yanchi in the Northwest, it is estimated that no one dares to say a word."

Tang Lao immediately took Master Feng's hand excitedly and said, "Then ask the adults to have a lot of good words for the little old man, and I will definitely not forget your goodness at that time."

"Tang Lao's words are bad. You are under my jurisdiction. You have made political achievements and helped me. I will definitely go all out." "But this matter is very important, I don't know where this salt comes from. Which master hand, I want to see with my own eyes and see what he thinks."

Tang Lao smiled and said: "To tell the truth, you must have never imagined this matter. We didn't believe it at the time, but now that the results have come out, I dare to report to you. But now is not the time to meet, wait. When the time comes, we will naturally let her show up." After speaking, he made a gesture of invitation.

Feng Zhixian immediately followed Tang Lao to the site where they processed the salt pond.In addition to other salt pools, there was a very strange device in the place. "This is?"

"Lord, please take a look." I saw Tang Lao grabbed a handful of salt in the salt pool with his hand, and he grabbed a handful of crystallized salt, washed as white as snow, and there was no more dark, bitter and astringent taste. salted.

Master Feng also tasted it himself, and was immediately overjoyed. "Yes, this is fine salt, carefully refined salt. Oops, congratulations to Mr. Tang and Mr. Tang."

"Hahaha, this is really God's blessing to my Tangjia Village. Every year we spend a lot of silver taels just to hire the salt maker, which is often lost. Now we finally have a master in our village, or from our Tang Dynasty. Jiacun, you say this is not God's help."

"Very good, very good. After I go back, I will report it to the capital immediately, and let the relevant people wait for inspection. If we pass this level, then Tang Lao and Tangjiacun will be extraordinary in the future." Master Feng looked around, Of course, you can't ask people how to do it.It made such a promise.

"Then thank you sir. I made a light meal here, and I also invited you and the young pavilion master to sit at the table. We have other things to tell you."

"You don't need to eat. I have other things, and the matter of Yanchi is very important. I have to report it now."

For thousands of years, salt has been the top priority of people's livelihood, and generations of ancestors have made great efforts to refine refined salt, but the results have not been satisfactory. Now things have finally made great progress.What a blessing!
