Xianggui thought so, but Li Yuan couldn't say anything about these matters in the court.
Wang Can did not continue talking, and waited until Li Yuan had finished eating before she spoke.
"Sister, it's just the right time for you to come back. Do we need to make preparations to build the greenhouse in our village? Although the Mid-Autumn Festival has not yet passed here, the chill in the morning and evening is already obvious. I think it will take some time to build it. Time, when the time comes, we can plant vegetables earlier and earn more.”
Now she has two sons to raise, and her husband is studying in college.
This education is the most expensive, and she can't always count on her sister and two aunts.
In this case, she has to be more diligent and make every extra penny she can.
"Okay, I've given this to my third uncle. You can discuss it with him later. By the way, Canniang, I have an idea here, but it's not mature yet. I'll tell you and you can listen."
"Well, sister, tell me!"
"Your brother-in-law said that the people in Dongfeng Mansion are having a hard time, whether they are fishermen or salt farmers. The salt farmers are involved in salt affairs, and I can't control or help them. But on the fishermen's side, I may be able to help. "
Wang Can had never heard of any salt farmers, but the fishermen did know some.
There used to be many people in their Liuyun County who made a living by fishing in the Liuyun River, but that was fishing in the river.
The people over at Dongfeng Mansion should be those who make a living by catching sea fish.
It's just that it's so far away from the capital. How can she, Sister Yuan, help if she wants to?
Although Wang Can had doubts in his heart, he didn't ask any questions, just sat there and listened to her quietly.
"Salt is expensive, especially the further away from the sea, the more expensive it becomes. I heard that in the northwest area, a pound of salt can be sold for forty or fifty cents. Sometimes, it is even seventy or eighty cents."
"And people over there often can't afford salt. I think so. Your brother-in-law said that many fishermen in Dongfeng Prefecture either can't sell the fish, or they sell it at extremely low prices. It can be said that many people can't live on it. Satisfied."
"I would like to ask Chen Wu how much he knows about the northwest as a escort and how familiar he is with the people there. Is it possible to let the fishermen in Dongfeng Mansion dry and preserve the fish that cannot be sold? , then take it to the northwest and sell it? Those are salted dried fish, and the price is much cheaper than salt."
When Wang Can heard this, he became energetic.
"Sister, you want to do this business? It's just that my brother-in-law is a colleague there. You may be solving the problems of the people on both sides by doing this, but you are not afraid that someone in the court will impeach your brother-in-law and say that you took the opportunity to plunder the people's wealth, or Are you saying that you are taking advantage of the people?"
"I won't come forward on this. I just have this idea. I need to think carefully about how to do it and who will do it. If I really want to confirm it, I have to write a letter to your brother-in-law to explain this clearly. How much money will be invested in the early stage? They all have to be prepared to come out. Communication between the Northwest, Dongfeng Mansion and the escort caravan is indispensable."
And if it really succeeds, it can also be said that it has done her brother Xie a big favor!
The livelihood of fishermen has been solved, and the drinking water and farming of ordinary people have also been solved. Then what is left is the salt farmers, which is also the most difficult piece to crack.
I believe that with the abilities of her brother Xie and Ying Lei, they can always solve it.
As for spices, shipbuilding, etc., she doesn't know much about it at the moment, and she can't help in any way.
Whatever she could think of, whatever she could help, she would do her best to help.
She, who is far away in the capital, can only do this now!
Wang Can knew that if he really did this, he might be able to make a lot of money, and it would last all year round, unlike growing watermelons, sweet potatoes and vegetables.
But for her, the risk was also high, so after thinking about it, she gave up the idea of getting involved.
"Sister, why don't you ask Su Mingshan later? Her Su family is in business. I think as long as it can make money and there is a brother-in-law helping out at Dongfeng Mansion, they will definitely agree!"
"Well, their family originally intended to go to Dongfeng Mansion, but your brother-in-law asked them to wait for a year. In this way, I will ask her first, then write to your brother-in-law, and then ask! If both parties are interested, and Northwest If Chen Wu also understands the situation, it would be best to let them communicate on their own."
Wang Can nodded, then stood up and pulled her out of the door.
As she walked, she said: "Sister, after Su Mingshan and the others get in touch with her brother-in-law, you can stop worrying about these things. What you have to do now is to take good care of the fetus and give birth to a child safely. By the way, you have to write a letter to tell your brother-in-law about this. Just say it to make him happy, and the grandparents should also say it, so that they don't have to worry all the time."
Li Yuan stretched out her hand to touch her belly, remembering how her eldest aunt and third aunt had induced the baby before, and nodded decisively.
When she left the courtyard, she suddenly remembered what Yan Jiao asked her to carry, so she approached her and whispered, "Canniang, Jiaojiao has prepared something for Doubao and the others, can I bring it to you later?"
"Okay! By the way, sister, what happened to Jiaojiao after she got married? Have you met her husband-in-law who is three years younger than her? How is he? Are you treating her well?"
Li Yuan was silent for a moment, then whispered into her ear: "That one broke off the engagement. When I went back, Jiaojiao was about to die. She was stunned because I gave her something and she was able to breathe."
Wang Can's relationship with Yan Jiao is much better than that with Su Mingshan.
Hearing this, her hands trembled subconsciously, her eyes filled with disbelief.
"Sister, Jiaojiao, she..."
"It's okay. I'll explain it to you in detail later."
Wang Can breathed a sigh of relief, then looked around and saw no one, so he whispered: "Sister, there is no one here, you can keep your story short."
Li Yuan saw the anxiety in her eyes and simply said a few words to calm her down.
Although Li Yuan said it simply, Wang Can could completely imagine Yan Jiao's situation at that time.
At this moment, she was holding Li Yuan's hands, feeling extremely happy in her heart that she had been reborn and had the spiritual spring water.
Otherwise, you can only watch the people around you die one after another.
Li Yuan knew what she was thinking by looking at her expression.
"Can Niang, this spiritual spring water can no longer be used by others. The more people use it, the easier it is to be exposed. There are too many people involved so far, including Chen Wu, Jiao Jiao, Ou Kui, aunt, and Mrs. Hou. Among these, some of them are not life-threatening, but they are not much different."
It’s not that I don’t know, it’s just that I was shocked.
Wang Can didn't think much about it at first, but when Li Yuan counted people, she was stunned for a moment.
Are there already so many people?
"Sister, I understand, don't worry, I will never give it to anyone but you in the future."

Regarding Li Yuan's pregnancy, Qingmei, who came back from Zhenguohou Mansion the next day, knew about it and began to treat her like a porcelain doll.
Li Sanhai and his wife also came over the next day.
They originally wanted to ask about the situation in Lijia'ao, but they were extremely happy after learning that Li Yuan was pregnant.
No, the next day I brought some of my own chickens to Li Yuan.
In September of this year, when Xie Yanzhi and Ying Lei were struggling to solve the food and clothing problem of the fishermen, Li Yuan's letter brought them hope.
At the same time, Xie Yanzhi also knew that he was becoming a father.
