Three Kingdoms, I open a tavern in Xudu

After explaining the problem of the dam in detail, Chen Yang asked again: "Yuanlong, what do you think?"

Chen Deng looked at the blueprint and pondered for a long time, then said: "General, your method looks good, but I need to test it before I can confirm how it is."

This knowledge is something he has never heard of in this era.

It sounds impossible now, Chen Deng thought about it seriously and felt that there was something deep in it, he thought Chen Yang was younger than himself, yet he knew so much.

"Where does the knowledge in his mind come from?" Chen Deng couldn't help thinking.

Chen Yang said again: "That's all I can tell you. If you still don't understand anything, you can go to Ma Jun and you can find a solution together."

How to do it, Chen Yang will not get involved, he just wants to be a comfortable hands-off shopkeeper, the kind that doesn't need to worry about anything.

"General, if all your knowledge can be used in practice, it will be enough to change the whole world!"

Chen Deng arched his hands, and said: "If the use of cement can be determined, the reservoir can also be built to store water. This will be beneficial to the people of the world, and there will be no harm. The general's achievements will be passed down for generations to come."

Chen Yang said casually: "It's just a very common thing."

This incident was indeed very common to him, but not to Chen Deng.

Therefore, Chen Deng felt that Chen Yang was great, knowledgeable, and even omniscient.

After bidding farewell to Chen Yang, Chen Deng hurried back to the construction site of the reservoir. For things like steel bars, he had to contact Ma Jun as soon as possible, and he could confirm whether they could be used after the test was completed.

"Zian!"

Not long after Chen Deng left, another visitor came to the house, this time it was the Mi Zhu brothers and sisters.

Mi Zhu ordered people to bring many gifts, all of which were for Xiao Ru'er, and said with a smile, "I just rushed over from Xuzhou, but I still can't catch up with Miss Chen's full moon gift, please forgive me."

"You are welcome, Zizhong, please come in!" Chen Yang said.

Walking into the reception hall of the Chen Mansion, Chen Yang found that Mizhen's eyes were shining brightly on Xiao Ru'er in his arms. She seemed to like children very much.

"General, can I have a look at Miss Chen?" Mi Zhen said expectantly.

However, there was still a bit of complicated meaning in the eyes she looked at Chen Yang.

She remembered that a long time ago, Chen Yang watched over and over in the shower, and then a blush appeared on her face.

"Of course." Chen Yang nodded.

When Mizhen came to Chen Yang, it was the first time she saw the cute little Ru'er, with a warm smile on her deserted face, she said happily: "Miss Chen is so cute, just like Mrs. Chen, she must be a sweetheart in the future A great beauty with a heavenly appearance and national beauty."

"Of course." Chen Yang said proudly.

"General, can Zhen'er give Miss a hug?" Mi Zhen asked again expectantly, and she stretched out her jade hand expectantly.

When Xiao Ru'er saw her, she also raised her little hand, as if she wanted to hug her.

Seeing this, Mi Zhen smiled even more happily, feeling like her heart was about to melt.

"Zhen'er, don't be rude!" Mi Zhu shook his head and said.

Mi Zhen came back to her senses and realized that her request was too much.

"It's okay, Miss Mi, be gentle."

Chen Yang didn't care, he also had a good impression of Mizhen, so he handed Xiao Ru'er to her.

Mi Zhen took it carefully, Xiao Ru'er was not afraid of life, just as lively and lovely as before.

"Zian, you let Zhen'er mess around."

Mi Zhu smiled gratifiedly, and then he took out an account book from his body, and said, "This time I am here, in addition to wanting to give Miss Chen a gift, I also plan to report the account to you, Zi An."

It has been a year since he agreed to let Mizhu participate in selling salt, and Chen Yang never asked about the accounts, because he believed that Mizhu would not fool himself.

Even if he really dared to fool him, with Chen Yang's current strength, there is no need to worry.

"so many!"

Chen Yang looked at the ledger for a while, saw the figures recorded on it, and said in surprise: "This is the income we earned from selling salt this year? It's too much!"

He could have predicted that getting the salt would make a lot of money, but he didn't expect it to be so big.

"We have opened up the channel to sell salt to the Xiongnu, and we have obtained the consent of the prime minister. In addition, Yuan Shao's four northern states are all our refined salt."

Mi Zhu smiled and said: "A while ago, after the general deceived Yuan Shao with a fake salt making formula, the four northern states relied more on our salt, and our status can no longer be moved. This amount of income is not small."

It turned out that they monopolized the salt industry in the north, Chen Yang suddenly realized, and said: "This year, you have worked hard."

Mi Zhu shook his head and said, "Actually, it's not me, but Zhen'er who has worked the hardest!"

Mi Zhen, who was teasing Xiao Ru'er, heard them mention her, and smiled happily at Chen Yang and nodded. She was also very satisfied to get Chen Yang's affirmation.

"Miss Mi worked hard." Chen Yang said again, "I don't know how familiar Miss Mi is with shadows?"

"What shadow?" Mi Zhu asked curiously.

He still doesn't know what a shadow is, and he doesn't know what relationship Mi Zhen has with a shadow.

Chen Yang admired Mizhen even more. Although the shadow was not a secret, she was still willing to keep it a secret, even her elder brother didn't know it.

"Just let Miss Mi help me manage a few people." Chen Yang didn't explain too much.

Mi Zhen nodded slightly: "With the help of General Ye Shun, I'm probably familiar with how it works. Thank you General for giving me this opportunity."

Chen Yang said with a smile: "That's why Miss Mi is good enough."

That being the case, Mi Zhu didn't ask any more questions.

He took out another account book from his body, and continued: "This one is the account book for our sales of books and paper. Zi'an, you can also look at it."

Chen Yang opened it and read it for a long time. The income from the book is definitely not as high as salt, but the income is also very considerable.

"Zian, your improved papermaking technique and the printing technique you invented spread almost all over the northern part of the Han Dynasty, and benefited scholars all over the world!" Mi Zhu said again.

Scholars in later generations will think of Chen Yang whenever they see books.

Those who invented these things can live forever.

The purpose of Mi Zhu's visit is very simple, besides giving gifts, it is to reconcile accounts.

After dealing with these matters, the two of them were polite again, and Mi Zhu offered to leave.

Mi Zhen reluctantly returned Xiao Ru'er to Chen Yang, and at the end she also took a peek at Chen Yang, her cheeks dizzy.

"Zhen'er, what is that shadow?"

Walking outside the door, Mi Zhu finally asked curiously.

Mi Zhen could only briefly explain the role of the shadow.

Mi Zhu was surprised again: "So, Zian trusts you a lot?"

"It seems so." Mi Zhen nodded.

"When did Zi'an let you get acquainted with the shadow?" Mi Zhu asked again.

As a qualified businessman, he can see the potential in Chen Yang and trust them. Of course, he wants to continue to increase investment.

When did this happen?

As long as Mi Zhen thinks of this, she will be shy.

What happened on the day when Chen Yang saw her body, but Mi Zhen didn't dare to say it, she just lowered her head with a blushing face.

"Zhen'er, you and Zi'an already have a secret, even my elder brother can't know it!"

Mo Zhu laughed.
