Du Chengze sat back on the chair and took out his notebook from his arms.

"According to the method of making refined salt given by the father-in-law, a total of nearly three hundred stones of refined salt has been produced so far!" Du Chengze flipped through the small book and then reported to Lu Chenhui.

"Three hundred stones..." After hearing Du Chengze's report, Lu Chen touched his chin and thought about it. One stone is about one hundred and twenty kilograms, and three hundred stones is close to four thousand kilograms of refined salt. Don't look at the number, it seems like a lot. , but if it is really spread out, it is really not too much.

"How much can we produce in a day now?" Lu Chen asked this time not Du Chengze, but Xu Gaofeng.

"Back to my father-in-law, the workshop at the salt mine is not that big now. Coupled with the manpower problem, the output is only about one stone a day!" Xu Gaofeng replied.

"Go back and prepare a piece of rock salt for me. I'll use it!" Lu Chen looked at Du Chengze and said.

"Yes!" Du Chengze nodded directly and accepted the order.

"Although spring is about to begin, it's not easy to build this house now!" Lu Chen looked at Du Chengze and said, "When spring begins, expand the scale when it's time to expand!"

"I understand!" Du Chengze took the order again.

"Well! Let's go!" Lu Chen waved his hand to indicate that the two of them could go about their business. Du Chengze and Xu Gaofeng stood up, saluted Lu Chen, and then exited the front hall together.

"Dog!" Lu Chen called Liu Jing directly, "Prepare your horses and go to the city!" Lu Chen directly ordered Liu Jing, and Liu Jing left the front hall to prepare Lu Chen's mount.

After Du Chengze ordered someone to deliver a piece of salt, Lu Chen changed his clothes, came outside the mansion, got on his horse, and took Liu Jing and Feng Huai with him, as well as several guards from the Weiwei Guards and several horses from the Weiwei Guards. Carrying several bags of refined salt on their backs, they headed straight for Chang'an City.

When he arrived in Chang'an City, Lu Chen went straight to the "Shengshi Group" in the East City. On the way to the "Shengshi", he would naturally pass by the Iron Stove Shop. The business at the Iron Stove Shop was still good, but everything had been changed from the inside out. It turned out that shopkeeper Liu of the Iron Stove Shop had apparently been fired by the aristocratic family. The waiters had also been replaced by new ones, and even the plaques had been replaced.

However, although the shopkeepers and clerks from the inside and outside of the Iron Stove Shop have been replaced, it has no impact on the business. After all, the goods are still the same as those in the Iron Stove Shop. The 20,000 yuan spent by those aristocratic families naturally includes the store's warehouse. For those stoves in there, the Iron Stove Shop's warehouse is not small, and the inventory inside is at least 1,800, which is obviously enough for these aristocratic families to sell for a while.

Lu Chen looked at the crowd of customers at the iron stove shop and sneered. Although it seems to be going well now, when the goods in the warehouse are sold out, let's see what you do!

"Oh! Isn't this Mr. Lu?" Just as Lu Chen was thinking about it on his horse, he heard someone calling him. Lu Chen looked around and saw Xiao Kai standing by the door of the iron stove shop. Say hello to yourself.

"Who do you think I am!" Seeing Xiao Kai, Lu Chen looked at Xiao Kai with a smile, "Isn't this the second son of the Xiao family? Don't you have an official position? Today doesn't seem to be a holiday. It's a day, right? Don't you think Xiao Erlang has to be on duty?" Lu Chen looked at Xiao Kai and teased with some yin and yang.

"You..." Being mocked by Lu Chen in such a sinister manner, Xiao Kai suddenly felt a little depressed. Even though Lu Chen pretended not to know anything, but who didn't know that he, a fifth-grade Yubu doctor, said... He is in charge of the streets, gardens, mountains and rivers, grass and trees of the capital, officials, farmers, vegetables, fuel supply, hunting, etc., and supplies the horses under the control of the palace and Taipu Temple. However, in fact, he is not required to do these things at all. No matter, the main thing is that he is not that material.

But his family knew about his family affairs. He, the doctor of the Yu tribe, was just a sinecure. It was just an official position that Xiao Yu had given to his second son. How much trouble Xiao Yu caused.

Therefore, after being teased by Lu Chen, Xiao Kai's face turned red and his chest felt a little tight. The main reason was that every time he fought with Lu Chen, he was always the deflated one. This can be regarded as the psychological shadow of this kid.

"Whether I'm on duty, it's not County Duke Lu's turn to ask, right?" Xiao Kai calmed down for himself, then looked at Lu Chen and said coldly, "It's just that the iron furnace shop has changed owners now, I don't know. What do you think, Mr. Lu County?" Xiao Kai glanced at the customers coming in and out of the iron stove shop, and then thought that the iron stove shop no longer belonged to Lu Chen, and his mood suddenly improved again, and he looked at Lu Chen and asked proudly road.

"What do you think? It's just a shop!" Lu Chen curled his lips, folded his hands, and leaned on the saddle. Looking at Xiao Kai's proud expression, he said indifferently.

"I heard that Mr. Lu County suffered a lot yesterday because of this shop!" Seeing the indifferent expression on Lu Chen's face, Xiao Kai felt unhappy. Originally, he wanted to disgust Lu Chen, but if Lu Chen Xiao Kai was even more happy to be furious because of this matter. As a result, Lu Chen's indifferent look directly made Xiao Kai feel that he was powerless and even felt even more unhappy. However, yesterday, Li Daozong and Cheng Yaojin They went directly to Lujiazhuang and made a big fuss. Xiao Kai also knew about it. Xiao Kai naturally wanted to use this matter to make Lu Chen feel disgusted.

"It's okay! But this thing doesn't seem to have anything to do with Xiao Erlang, right?" Lu Chen still looked at Xiao Kai with an indifferent expression, "Besides, this shop doesn't seem to be owned by your Xiao family. You are there Fuck you!" Lu Chen said another sentence, straightened up, shook the horse's reins, and the white fox walked forward slowly.

"You..." Xiao Kai was almost broken by Lu Chen's words again, and could only stare at Lu Chen's leaving back bitterly.

"Oh! That's right!" Unexpectedly, Lu Chen, who was riding on the back of the white fox, suddenly turned around and looked at Xiao Kai again before the white fox took a few steps, and continued directly, "As for what I want to do and what I want to say, I give you four words!" Lu Chen said directly to Xiao Kai again.

"?" Xiao Kai, who was called out by Lu Chen again, didn't know what Lu Chen was going to say, so he could only look at Lu Chen with some surprise and anger.

"It's none of your business!" Lu Chen said these words directly and neatly, and knocked the white fox's belly with his legs again, and the white fox walked forward slowly again.

As for Liu Jing and a group of guards beside Lu Chen, seeing Xiao Kai whose face turned red with anger from Lu Chen, they all laughed loudly. The laughter spread far and wide in Dongshi, attracting many passers-by and leaving. The nearby merchants all looked sideways.
