"Your Highness, this is the first batch of refined salt produced by the Great Qin Saltworks!”
In the Crown Prince's Residence, Ba Qing opened a bag and placed it on the table.
It was filled with white salt!
"It's produced so quickly?"
Ying Ziye looked at the big bag of salt and was quite surprised.
Recently, this pretty widow had been looking for him every day. If she wasn't asking about the construction of the saltworks, she would report on the progress of the construction of the Great Qin Trading Company.
Moreover, her words were as soft as water, and it sounded very comfortable!
Not only that, in just three days, the Great Qin Saltworks were completed and the first batch of refined salt was produced.
Such a positive drive surprised even Ying Ziye.
"The Crown Prince has entrusted me with this task, and I dare not neglect it!”
Ba Qing saw the surprise on his face and felt great relief.
Everything she did was for him!
"Increase the output of the saltworks and bookstores as soon as possible!”
"This prince has already ordered the internal historian to fully cooperate with you in building the Great Qin Trading Company.”
"The official documents have been sent out. All the counties will provide all support, including the use of the army!”
Ying Ziye reassured her.
Now, salt and iron were returned to the government and private production and sales were strictly prohibited.
If they didn't quickly establish sales outlets, if they didn't quickly let refined salt enter the market, the people would have no salt to eat.
Relying solely on the crude salt in stock from the major salt merchants would not be able to last long.
"Your Highness…trusts me so much?”
Ba Qing was touched by his words.
He ordered the officials at all levels to cooperate and even gave her the right to mobilize the army.
This was the greatest trust he had in her!
In other words, she had become his confidant.
She was not far from becoming his woman…
"This crown prince will soon be patrolling the east on behalf of Imperial Father. During this period of time, if you have any important matters, you can look for Right Prime Minister Wang Wan to resolve them!”
"Left Prime Minister Li Si and Imperial Censor Feng Quji went to East County to investigate the meteorite case. Among the three dukes, only he is in Xianyang!”
"Also, think of a way to invite the famous merchants of Great Qin to Xianyang!”
"This prince wants to make a big deal with them!”
Ying Ziye, who was preparing to go east, told her what to do next.
"When will Your Highness return?”
Seeing that he was about to leave Xianyang, Ba Qing suddenly felt a little reluctant.
"At least a month, at most two months!"
Ying Ziye stared at her for a moment, then reached out and lifted her beautiful chin." Run the salt and iron business well. When this prince comes back, I'll let you sleep with me…!"”
"Your Highness, I…"
Ba Qing seemed to have been electrocuted. Her entire body went limp. At the same time, her pretty face instantly turned red.
"Your Highness, Ziyi, Xiao Zhuang, and General Meng have returned to the residence in triumph!”
Just as she closed her eyes and was about to receive Yulu's grace, a guard suddenly barged in.
"Let them in!"
Ying Ziye reluctantly put down Ba Qing.
"Yes, sir!"
The guard received the order and turned to leave.
Not long after, the three of them walked in, travel-worn.
"Your Highness, Mo Family City has been burned down and all the Mo Family disciples have been killed!”
As soon as the three of them entered, they reported the good news and told him in detail about the process of massacring the Mo family.
He even reported the details of the Mo Family colluding with the Xiongnu.
"Good!"
"You came back just in time. This prince has a mission for you!”
"Purple Dress, assist Ba Qing and quickly establish the Great Qin Trading Company!”
"At the same time, you must ensure her safety.”
"Also, Xiao Zhuang, bring some men to River East and gather information about the anti-Qin forces for this prince!”
Ying Ziye gave them a new task.
Although Ba Qing was capable and had a good business mind, he was only one person.
Purple Dress had been running Drunken Moon Brothel for many years and knew how to do business. At the same time, her cultivation was not bad.
He could help Ba Qing with his work.
Xiao Zhuang's assassin group was good at gathering intelligence. It was most suitable for them to go to River East to act as a vanguard.
"Yes, sir!"
"This subordinate will obey!"
Purple Dress and Xiao Zhuang cupped their hands together and respectfully accepted the order.
The more important the task the Crown Prince assigned them, the more it meant that the Crown Prince treated them as his own people.
In the future, if the Crown Prince ascended the throne and became the Emperor, then their status would also rise.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince, His Majesty has issued an urgent order!"
At this moment, a eunuch rushed into the palace.
"Imperial Father is looking for me?"
Ying Ziye was slightly puzzled. Usually, his father would send someone to deliver whatever he needed.
What was going on today?
He actually wanted to summon him into the palace?
And it was an urgent edict?
"There's an urgent report from Mobei. Something big has happened!”
The eunuch seemed to have noticed his confusion and quickly explained.
"Meng family's army?"
"My brother…?"
Hearing what he said, Ying Ziye and Meng Yi exclaimed almost at the same time.
There was only the Meng family army stationed in the north of the desert. Moreover, from the information they received three days ago, the Xiongnu and Donghu had already sent their troops south.
Did something happen to the Meng Army?
"Meng Yi, follow this prince into the palace!"
……
"There's an urgent report from the north of the desert saying that the Xiongnu and Donghu have suddenly joined forces to attack the border cities of our Great Qin!”
"They even bypassed the border cities and plundered Great Qin's people!”
"Countless villages have been plundered by them!”
"Right now, the Meng army has suffered heavy losses and urgently needs reinforcements!”
"Also, the rations won't last much longer!”
"What's even more severe is that the number of warhorses is rapidly decreasing, and the losses are extremely great!”
"With the situation of the war getting more and more tense, the cavalry is getting lesser and lesser!”
"Dear ministers, do you have any good ideas?”
In the Palace of Xianyang, Ying Zheng was gathering his ministers to discuss the war in the North Desert.
Apart from Li Si and Feng Quji, almost all the important officials were summoned into the palace.
"Your Majesty, three days ago, His Highness the Crown Prince ordered me to prepare the rations. Now that the preparations are complete, we can load the carriage and transport it to Mobei at any time!”
Internal history Zhi Su quickly stood up to take credit.
"Oh?"
"Is that so?"
As expected, Ying Zheng was pleasantly surprised when he heard that the grain could be loaded into the truck at any time.
"Your Majesty, three days ago, His Highness the Crown Prince ordered me to mobilize the troops around Xianyang.”
"Right now, we have gathered 70,000 troops and can go to Mobei at any time!”
Zhang Han also stood up and reported proudly.
At this moment, he felt that the Crown Prince was too godly. He had actually foreseen what would happen today three days in advance.
If they hadn't made preparations three days ago, it would probably take at least two days before they could send reinforcements to Mobei!
"Oh…?"
"The Crown Prince again?"
Ying Zheng was slightly startled at first, then a hint of surprise appeared on his face.
He had never expected that his son would actually make preparations in advance.
The reason why he had gathered the officials after receiving the urgent report from Mobei was because he was worried that the Crown Prince did not understand military affairs.
That was why he had personally asked about it.
Who would have thought that his son had ordered people to make preparations three days ago?
