Qingzhou.

The winter snow fell on and off for twenty days, and it was not until this morning that a crystal-like blue appeared in the gray clouds.

The golden sunlight broke free from the constraints of the clouds and sprinkled down, coating the white snow with a bright golden color.

"Your Highness, Li San has been there for about twenty days. Do you think this perfume and Zuiqingzhou have moved the Empress and the Emperor?"

Luluo stretched out her little hand and baked on the coal ball stove while supervising the distilled rice wine in the yard.

"It's time to come back together." Xiao Ming was wrapped in thick felt. The deeper the winter, the colder the north became.

Especially when you sit still, the cold is like an invisible hand wandering around your body.

"Hmph, I don't know if the things he purchased fell. "Luluo is still thinking about his maltose.

Xiao Ming knocked the Green Ivy on the head, "You just like to eat."

"Hehe." Luluo squinted her eyes and smiled, as if she was looking forward to Li San's return, and her saliva flowed out.

Xiao Ming tightened the felt on his body and looked towards Chang'an. It was the political and economic center of the Great Yu Kingdom. Thinking about it with his butt, he also understood that few people who could live in Chang'an were good people.

He only hopes that Li San can bring good news and try to avoid any trouble.

Although I didn't know about Li San's news, Qin Mu's news came very quickly. Zui Qingzhou was very popular in Chang'an. All of them were scrambled to buy after tasting it.

The price of Zuiqingzhou exceeded the price of his daughter’s red in a short time, and it doubled directly. Now a jar of Zuiqingzhou can sell for 40 taels of silver.

Even so, Zuiqingzhou is seriously out of stock. After all, Xiao Ming only distilled a hundred jars.

For this reason, Qin Mu couldn't wait and sent the fast horse directly to bring the news back in five days. When Qin Chuanyun learned the news, he personally came to Xiao Ming to increase the supply of Zui Qingzhou, and promised to increase the cost price of Zui Qingzhou to 30 taels per jar.

The profit of a jar of ten taels allowed Qin Chuanyun, the old fox, to deeply understand the benefits of cooperation with Xiao Ming. The Liang family shipbuilding workshop also made a favor and gave it to Xiao Ming directly, which was also an exchange of interests.

The fiefdom is in ruins, and what Xiao Ming lacks the most is money at present, so he naturally won't refuse this proposal.

At that moment, he asked Chen Qi to make nine sets of distillers for him, directly transforming the side hall of the royal palace into a small factory. The production volume of Zuiqingzhou rose from ten jars a day to one hundred jars a day.

At this scale, Xiao Ming did not dare to continue to expand because Xiao Ming needed green ant wine in Qingzhou, the grain was purchased in large quantities for winemaking. The price of staple food rose a lot for a while. If the scale was expanded, the people would be more and more sad.

This winter, the people's lives were already hard. As a vassal king, the parents of the people of the six states, he had to consider the lives of the people.

Therefore, he thought about building a whole winemaking measure himself and setting up an official winery, but the grain was no longer purchased from his fiefdom, but from places with abundant grain.

When the people in the fiefdom have sufficient food, they will purchase them from the fiefdom to drive the economic development of the fiefdom.

"By the way, Your Highness, when Sister Ziyuan went to Haizhou this morning, she said that our palace was not enough staff, so I asked me to tell you if I wanted to buy some slaves." Luluo remembered something and suddenly said.

Today, Ziyuan was sent by Xiao Ming to the fiefdom of King Wei to purchase plowing oxen.

Compared with the five million households on the fief, the gap in plowing ox is too big. Spring will begin in three months. If the production tools cannot keep up at that time, it will definitely affect the harvest of the next year.

The old fox, King of Wei, seemed to be sure that his plowing ox was very short, which raised the price of plowing ox in his fiefdom by three taels. Now a plowing ox requires twenty taels of silver, which really gave him a headache.

He also wanted to go to other places to buy oxen, but the journey was too far, and the transportation risks were still not cost-effective.

"Buy!" Xiao Ming said firmly.

Li San went to Chang'an these days and he had been thinking about development. In this era of backward technology, people are production resources. In previous wars with the barbarians, the purpose of satisfying many battles was to plunder the population.

Because these populations will be converted into slaves, they will greatly promote various production.

Xiao Ming is facing this problem now, one is insufficient money and the other is insufficient labor.

The fiefdom is now limited, and four or five million people can only be used to resume production, but the workshop requires a large number of workers.

In the modern West, a large part of the accumulation of industrial wealth in the early stages benefited from the slave trade. According to roughly data, during the slave trade, about 20 million slaves were sold.

This is also one of the reasons why the capital world can rise rapidly.

Xiao Ming knew that he was not able to participate in the black slave trade yet because he didn't even have a decent ship, and at the same time he did not have the Virgin Heart at this time.

Living in this era, one must do things that conform to the development laws of this era, so he does not oppose the slave trade. For him, this is even a necessary condition for his fiefdom to revive.

"If Your Highness wants to buy it, Sister Ziyuan said that there is a slave trader in Qingzhou City, and he has a slave market in Dongcheng City." Luluo said again.

Xiao Ming was shocked. If Ziyuan hadn't mentioned this, he would have delayed some time in the slave matter. He said, "Ziyuan should be careful. If you ask Zhao Long and Zhao Hu to go to the East City and bring the slave vendor here."

Now Xiao Ming gradually adapted to his identity and knew his supreme right in the fiefdom.

In order to develop as soon as possible, he said not to use his own vassal rights flexibly.

Luluo responded and went to find Zhao Long and Zhao Hu. In half an hour, a man with a stingy look on his face was taken to the Qi Prince's Mansion.

"The Caomin Liang Dahai has seen His Highness the King of Qi." Liang Dahai bowed and bowed his head, and did not dare to breathe.

When Zhao Long and Zhao Hu appeared, he was so scared that he thought it was the government who wanted to take him, after all, no one was clean in the slave business.

"No gift, are you Liang Dahai?" Xiao Ming sat in the middle of the main hall, and the red flames reflected half of his face red.

"That's right." Liang Dahai looked at Xiao Ming carefully and said.

Xiao Ming said in a stern voice: "I asked you to come here not for anything else, but for your business."
