Daqin: After marrying a vegetative princess, I went crazy with joy

Chapter 128 Will the son-in-law dare to use this plan?
As night fell, the kitchen was full of smoke.

What I made today was hot pot, not because Liu Bai was greedy, but purely to give Xu Ping and the others a chance.

I have to say that these two people really did not make a mistake.

If Xu Ping is accepted, the system will reward a year of good weather, and if Chen Ping is accepted, the reward will be the 'Cylinder Manufacturing Method'.

After a day of farm work, Xu Ping was in excellent spirits, and he didn't feel tired at all, but his belly felt a little empty.

Smelling the aroma in the pot, my saliva almost flowed down.

"My son-in-law, when can I eat this so-called hot pot?"

Liu Bai glanced at him with a smile.

"Immediately, after boiling!"

Although it's a reception feast in name, it can't really just invite Xu Ping and two!
What's more, hot pot needs a lot of people to be delicious.

Therefore, everyone in General Liu Bai called over.

Except for Yu Huatian who refused to sit at the table, everyone else sat around the round table.

As a last resort, Liu Bai could only re-open a few tables for Yingwei and people from various workshops in the open space outside the school.

In Yu Huatian's eyes, Hu Hai and the others were terrified.

While waiting, Liu Bai introduced the people at the table to Xu Ping and the others one by one.

"This is my wife, Princess Ying Yinman of the Empire. As for Mr. Fusu, I don't need to introduce any more!"

The two quickly got up and saluted Ying Yinman.

"This is Xiao He, and next to him is Xia Houying. The two of them are in charge of the logistics work on our mountain. This is Han Xin and Fan Kuai. The two of them are mainly doing security work, and Cao is involved in Zhou Bo. He is not in Xianyang at the moment. In the future, you will be able to see.

"As for this one, they are Juzi of the Mo family and his granddaughter, Miss Mohuan. This girl is Ba Qing, a wealthy businessman from Berkshire..."

Every time someone is introduced, Xu Ping and Chen Ping will stand up and salute.

When introducing Mo Ran, Xu Ping's eyes lit up even more.

In his opinion, the Mo family was lucky to be able to hug Liu Bai's thick legs.

The previous Mohists were almost unable to survive.

But now?

At least in the counties and counties around Xianyang, the reputation has already been established.

Comparing the two, there is simply a world of difference.

When everyone saw them saluting, they all smiled back.

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, the water in the pot finally boiled.

Under Liu Bai's signal, they put the dishes they wanted into the pot one after another.

"Okay, it's ready to eat after it's cooked!"

Staring at the pot helplessly, he lost the mood to speak in an instant.

When the food in the pot is cooked, the courtyard is full of chewing and admiration.

"Brother-in-law, your pepper is really amazing!"

Fusu picked up a piece of mutton and dipped it in a dry dish prepared with pepper and salt.

It doesn't matter whether it burns your mouth or not, it's just a constant compliment.

With a slight smile, Liu Bai said proudly.

"That's natural, much better than pepper, right?"

Fusu, who was busy eating, had no time to reply him.

Xiao He at the side had a slight glint in his eyes.

The pepper that Daqin sells now is extremely expensive.

Since the son-in-law has grown more delicious and cheaper peppers, why not sell some?

There are also seeds, which can also be sold to farmers!
"We have grown so many peppers, do you want to sell some?"

After patting his head, Liu Bai thought to himself that he was so busy.

"Yes, yes, yes, sell, sell, sell seeds!"

Swallowing the food in his mouth, Xiao He smiled gently.

"My son-in-law takes care of all kinds of affairs all day long, so you don't need to worry about small things, otherwise, wouldn't we be useless people?"

Liu Bai chuckled.

"Yeah, it's great to have you here!"

He was happy, but Chen Ping on the side seemed to have been stabbed.

Since going up the mountain till now, Xu Ping still helps to collect potatoes, but he is basically a useless person!
Glancing at Liu Bai, he thought to himself.

No problem, there will be opportunities in the future!

Half an hour later, except for Han Xin and Fan Kui, the speed of picking up vegetables was obviously much slower.

Seeing that Liu Bai had almost eaten, Mo Ran took out the account book from his pocket.

"Please look, son-in-law, this is the account book for building a school!"

Liu Bai opened it and glanced at it, his eyes hurt from being dazzled by those numbers.

Turning directly to the last page and looking at the records above, I was instantly dumbfounded.

"Juzi, I remember that I only gave you 5 taels back then, why the cost has reached 5000 taels now, where did the extra 5000 taels come from?"

"Also, it costs so much to build a school? Uncle, why didn't you tell me?"

Before Fusu could speak, Mo Ran smiled calmly and replied.

"I was afraid that something would happen during the construction of the school, so I bought all the materials drawn on the consort's blueprint at one time, which cost a little more!"

Liu Bai looked at him, what a talent!
The school has not been completed yet, and all the materials have been bought?
Seeing Fusu nodding his head, Liu Bai asked in doubt.

"Then the extra money..."

Mo Huan on the side wanted to speak, but was stopped by his grandfather.

"The extra money is my Mo family's savings for so many years, don't worry about it, you have helped the Mo family so much, you should give some money."

Liu Bai looked at him seriously and asked.

"So, the wages of the Mohist craftsmen have not been paid yet?"

After a moment of silence, Mo Ran hurriedly spoke.

"Send it, send it..."

Mo Huan at the side couldn't stand it any longer, and interrupted.

"Grandpa, when did you pay the craftsmen? Son-in-law, you don't know that those craftsmen have started to complain in private..."

"What nonsense?"

After scolding his granddaughter, Mo Ran looked at Liu Bai again.

"Your son-in-law, they are all members of my Mo family, whoever doesn't want to do it, just leave, old man..."

Liu Bai interrupted him and said seriously.

"Juzi, I am very pleased that the Mo family can belong to Daqin, but please understand that you are not slaves."

"These days the reputation of the Mohist school is gradually increasing in the hearts of the people all over the world. This is what you have earned with your own labor, and you deserve it. You don't need to thank me.

"You have to get paid for your work. Xiao He, I will make up the 5000 taels to Juzi later, and then calculate the wages of the craftsmen. You will go with me tomorrow and make up all the previous wages for them!"

Xiao He was dumbfounded when he heard the words, looked at Mo Ran, then at Liu Bai, and kept crying in his heart.

Where did so much money come from?

The shops have just opened, and the factory's money is still provided by Ba Qing.

But after hearing Liu Bai's words, he didn't know how to speak.

If I said this, wouldn't it be a slap in the face of the son-in-law?

Liu Bai didn't have so many worries, seeing that he didn't answer, he asked.

"But is there a problem?"

Xiao He nodded, he could only speak truthfully.

"Now the money in our books is only enough for the operation of the mountain, and we can't afford that much for a while, or I will go to various shops tomorrow to have a look..."

Liu Bai knew in his heart that even if he really recovered the money from each shop, he might not be able to make up for this hole.

Frowning, he began to think.

Seeing this, Chen Ping also put down his chopsticks and thought about it.

Although he has never seen so much money in his life, in his opinion, a mere 5000 taels is really easy to get.

I just don't know if Liu Bai would dare to use his strategy.

"My son-in-law, I have a plan to solve the current difficulties!"

Looking up at him with encouraging eyes, Liu Bai quietly waited for his next words.

Seeing that Chen Ping frowned slightly, he said.

"But this plan... I wonder if the son-in-law dares to use it?"

Seeing the embarrassed look on his face, Liu Bai instantly understood.

A poisoner, of course he came up with a poisonous plan.

In his opinion, poisoning is okay, as long as it doesn't poison Daqin, why not dare to use it?
