The next day, He Yue presented the future plan of the northern industrial base on my desk.
He was breathing hot air, and his face showed a little tiredness, but he was in good spirits. There is a sense of excitement after an all night. The current weather is indeed a bit strange. If you are under the covers, you can sleep for twelve hours at a time, and you will still feel refreshed when you wake up. But if you get out of bed after getting dressed, the cold will make you wake up instantly and become full of energy.
I took the planning book in Heyue's hand, which basically said the following three points:
First, the production method of the drug is not disclosed to the outside world. It is only said that a very capable alchemist came to Yuxi City, who can refine a small amount of top-quality elixir for sale. Because of the high purity, the price is set on the high side and goes to the high-end market.
Second, the distilled spirits are not sold externally, but they contact Yunhai's exclusive agent and let Yunhai be responsible for the external sales.
Thirdly, under the condition that the plan for the expansion of the army remains unchanged, another group of people will be recruited to be responsible for the security of Yuxi City. At the same time, it is expected that in the middle of next year, the first batch of new schools will be built and some innovative talents will be secretly cultivated.
I read it again, nodded, and said to He Yue:
"I think so."
He Yue sat down beside me, next to the charcoal fire, warmed her hands and said:
"I thought you would refuse, and I thought about how to persuade you all night."
"Afraid I'll blame you for being too slow in planning? I still understand the truth that haste makes waste."
Holding the teacup in both hands, I blew away a tea leaf floating on the water, and took a sip of the tea slowly.
He Yue sighed and said:
"Actually, I also think it will be slower. Medicines that can be mass-produced can only be sold in limited quantities. No matter how good the quality of ordinary pills is, how can they be sold at such a high price? At most, it is only a few times that of similar pills. This way of making money is still not fast enough, if it can be mass-produced and sold all over the world, the benefits it brings can instantly make Yuxi City grow into a behemoth that cannot be underestimated."
I added:
"Muxiu is bound to be destroyed by the forest wind. I'm afraid it will be gone before it grows up. The thirty-six territories of Yongtian join forces to hunt us down. It's quite exciting to think about it."
He Yue smiled and said:
"The thrill is the thrill. It's like jumping off a building, for a moment you think you're going to take off, and then it's gone."
He Yue's hands gradually turned red, she put her hands in her sleeves and said:
"Including distilled wine. Yunhai itself is a wine seller. One-third of the best wine in the world comes from Zixuan, one-third from Lingwu, and one-third from Yunhai. If we really compete with Yunhai For business, Lord Yunhai and Baifeng will definitely be the first to refuse. At that time, a pale treaty will not be able to protect Yuxi City, so it is better to simply sell Baifeng as a favor and let him be in charge of sales. Anyway, they are business People, this aspect is also very familiar."
I nodded.
It was silent for a while, neither of them spoke.
After a while, He Yue asked:
"How are you and the assassin?"
I just put the tea to my lips and said casually:
"Okay… "
After taking a sip of tea, he suddenly realized something was wrong, and sprayed a mouthful of tea on the table.
He Yue raised her eyebrows and looked at me ambiguously.
I coughed twice and said:
"Where did that assassin come from? Didn't that guy leave a note some time ago, saying 'I can't beat it, slip away'? Baihuang turned Yuxi City upside down and couldn't find her again. I posted it, and told everyone that the assassin has already left, so I don’t need to go to the street to panic, this matter is over.”
He Yue didn't speak, but still had a half-smile expression.
I had no choice but to drink tea with my head down.
He Yue said:
"It's strange to say that when the gardener in the mansion was loosening the soil in the garden two days ago, he dug up an iron bucket in the corner, which contained a black mask and some other things. Who is buried in our city lord's mansion? What about..."
My hands trembling while holding the tea, but I still said:
"I don't know, who is it?"
He Yue stared at me for a while and said:
"Hey... Forget it, I won't pursue this matter. Yuxi City needs its own Anbu organization, and it's better to have it than nothing. I'm just a minister of internal affairs, and the affairs of the army and the Anbu are out of my control. But even So... I said you, are you sure you want to keep me in the dark? Not to mention, running the Anbu organization needs funds after all, if I don't approve, where will the money come from? Huh?"
He Yue said, poking my cheek with that finger, and asked while poking:
"You don't want to take it from your own money. Do you have any money?"
I had no choice but to show a flattering smile and said:
"It's not that Yuxi City can't turn over funds recently. Based on the principle of sharing your worries, I originally thought to wait for you to have more money before I mentioned this matter to you."
He Yue obviously didn't believe it, but she didn't refute anything, she just smiled and said:
"I'm going to contact Yunhai in the past two days. The distilled liquor will be on the market soon. Just before the Chinese New Year, there should be many people who are willing to pay for it. Let's make a fortune first. The pill will wait until later It will be better to contact various sales channels, after all, there are basically no people practicing martial arts during the Spring Festival. Next year, we will transfer the demon farms to the four newly acquired cities, and the scale will also increase, and Anbu’s expenses will still be affordable.”
He Yue put a finger on her lips, blinked at me, and said:
"Don't worry, I won't tell Alaya and the others about the assassin."
I clasped my hands together, bowed to him, and exaggeratedly said:
"Thank you for saving your life."
He Yue also laughed.
The charcoal was burning very well, and the room was very warm. He Yue suddenly leaned towards me, took out a letter from her arms, and said:
"By the way, take a look at this. I don't know if the royal family took the wrong medicine this year, or it's the idea of the newcomer Baiyi... In short, you make a decision."
He Yue unfolded the letter, handed it in front of me, and sat next to me to read it together.
I heard that it was a letter from the capital, and I thought it was from the little princess Lanna again, but I didn't expect it to be in a brand new handwriting this time.
Looking at it, my brows wrinkled involuntarily.
Gather thirty-six city lords to celebrate the new year in the royal capital? Never had this kind of activity before.
I recalled that when I celebrated the New Year in Yunyang in previous years, I never heard of any brothers and sisters being called to the capital. It was nothing more than asking the housekeeper to arrange a gift to be sent to the capital every Spring Festival as a tribute to His Majesty the king. That's all. What kind of moth is this year going to trick us into being hostages
But having said that, I'm not the city lord of Yunyang anymore. What does your finding the city lord of Yunyang have to do with Li De? !
I rubbed my head, only to feel that the good mood of the day was gone.
Headache.
