She suddenly understood that Bai Su had sent a huge opportunity to her.

After all, the most expensive things in this world are often useless things.

And the things that really need to be used are often cheap and not very eye-catching, just like cloth, grain, and table salt.

These things seem to be nothing, but if they can be cheaper by a penny, the impact will be enough to change the livelihood of the people in the whole world.

A penny increase in food may cause countless famines and refugees everywhere.

A penny worth of bricks means that there is no money to build river canals and dams in a certain place. Once the summer floods rage, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of people will be displaced.

Now Bai Su has reduced the price of this brick to one-fifth, so that most people can afford it.

From the past, we improved mulberry and increased the output of linen, so that everyone could have clothes.

To present auspicious rice, so that everyone can have food.

Establish Beiting Duhu Mansion, open up vast pastures for the Central Plains, let everyone have meat to eat, and now let the common people have a way to go.

No wonder, His Majesty loves Bai Su so much, and entrusts Bai Su to take charge of all the affairs of the military parade.

Who wouldn't like such a genius.

Liu Ji raised his head, and looked at Bai Su with big peach blossom eyes.

Bai Su was stunned: "Why are you looking at me so straight, is there something on my face?"

Liu Ji blinked his eyes: "It's nothing, I just suddenly wanted to wash something for the young master."

Bai Su asked suspiciously, "What to wash?"

Liu Ji stood on tiptoe and approached Bai Su's ear, with his red lips slightly parted, accompanied by a gust of fragrant wind, he said softly, "I like you."

Chapter 230 The Brave Bai Su

Bai Su looked at the smiling Liu Ji in front of him with a strange expression: "Can you stop talking?"

Liu Ji blinked his big peach eyes, and asked with a smile, "I didn't talk much."

Bai Su sighed: "Then why is your voice all over my head?"

Liu Ji couldn't help being stunned for a moment, looking at Bai Su's serious expression, she couldn't help a "puchi" smile, clutching her belly: "Okay... Dude, I laughed so hard."

"Are you qualified to say that?"

Bai Su couldn't help but rolled his eyes.

a few days later.

Bai Su and Liu Ji walked side by side and came to a street in the west city of Xianyang.

This place has been surrounded by government officials, and it has become a construction site that is temporarily forbidden to pass through, leaving only a narrow road for pedestrians to detour.

At this time, there was a lot of people nearby, and there was a lot of noise.

The people passing by stopped and watched, whispering, curious about what the government was doing.

Liu Ji looked a little hesitant and said: "My lord...are you really going to tear down this official road and rebuild it?"

Although the official road is a bit dilapidated, the imperial court sends people to repair it every year, and it is barely usable.

Bai Su removed those unusable ones and rebuilt them. It's okay to say that all the official ways should be removed.

This generosity really made her heart beat violently.

Bai Su stood on a high slope, looking at the craftsmen who were busy below, as well as the Mohist craftsmen dispatched from the private school and the Shaofu, who were pulling the plow with oxen, pulling the ground out of scars, looking from afar , looks tattered.

He rubbed his chin and said, "This official road rammed with earth is really not durable, and it will break down in a short time, especially in the next heavy rain, when the carriages pulling goods pass by, the official road will often be crushed." A series of deep ditches were formed, and under the washing of rainwater, muddy puddles were formed, which greatly delayed the speed of transportation."

"In some serious cases, the wheels of the carriage got stuck in the middle of the road, and they couldn't even walk. As a result, the task of delivering food to the front line was affected."

"If you don't tear up the broken road, how can you build a new road? By the way, have you collected all the lime I asked you to collect?"

Liu Ji nodded lightly: "Don't worry, my lord, I sent Cao Shen to search for it early on, and it probably won't take long before it will be shipped over."

It is always easier to destroy than to build. In just one hour, the entire official roads around Xianyang West City have been destroyed in sevens and eights.

Naturally, such a big movement cannot be concealed.

It soon attracted the attention of many people.

For example, some Confucian scholars and scholars under Fusu's command were drinking tea in a tea shop, and they couldn't help being stunned when they saw the movement in the distance.

"This...Whose subordinates are these, how dare they bring so many people here to destroy the officialdom."

"That's right, destroying the road privately is a felony."

"I heard it was made by Daliang, Bai Su, Master Bai ordered it."

"Is this Bai Su crazy? How could such a well-behaved person do such a stupid thing?"

"Anyway, we can't control this kind of thing, so hurry up and report to His Highness Fu Su."

One of them nodded, put down the tea money, and ran out quickly.

Xianyang Palace.

Fusu was sitting in front of the desk, sipping a cup of hot tea, feeling the fragrance flowing in her throat, the corners of her lips could not help but curl slightly.

She got this tea from the land of Bashu, it is extremely delicious.

I have to admit that although Bai Su, a scoundrel, is annoying, the good things he made are really good.

"Your Highness...Your Highness, something is wrong."

At this moment, a Confucian scholar walked in in a panic.

On Fusu's fair and pretty face, there was a hint of doubt.

This Confucian scholar is a courtier who has followed her for many years. He usually handles things neatly, behaves elegantly, and usually looks polite. Why is he in such a hurry today.

Could it be that there are thieves who can't assassinate in the city?

She put down the teacup in her hand, her slender eyebrows were tightly frowned and she asked, "What happened?"

The Confucian scholar took a deep breath, tried his best to calm his breath, and said: "Your Highness, that Bai Su led a group of people to smash the official road of Xianyang City."

"It turns out that Bai Su broke the official path..."

Fusu's tense nerves were immediately relieved, and she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. I thought it was a traitor from the Six Kingdoms who intended to assassinate my mother.

Her apricot eyes suddenly widened, and she asked in shock, "What did you say?"

The Confucian scholar had no choice but to repeat it again: "Bai Su led a group of people from the Shaofu to destroy all the official roads around Xianyang in a mighty way, and now there are scars everywhere."

Fu Su's slender black eyebrows were furrowed, and her face became serious.

Xianyang is the core of the Central Plains, so it is very important to connect the official roads of various places. Whether it is a caravan transported from various places in peacetime, or in times of war, when it is necessary to send troops abroad, official roads are a vital link.

At the beginning, my mother spent a lot of manpower and material resources to repair the official way, but now Bai Su has destroyed the official way, isn't this against the court?

She stood up abruptly: "No, I can't let him behave like this."

"Your Highness, wait a moment..."

At this time, the Confucian scholar next to him stopped Fusu: "This may be a good thing for Your Highness."

Fu Su was stunned: "What do you mean by that?"

A strange look flashed in the Confucian student's eyes: "Your Highness, think about it, Bai Su's power is growing day by day, and the prime minister in the court, as well as some veteran officials, are also faintly dissatisfied, but there has been no excuse to criticize."

"Now that Bai Su is a great leader, but openly relying on his own rights, leading a group of people to smash the officialdom of the court, this is a serious crime."

"If you take this opportunity to make His Majesty feel dissatisfied with Bai Su and beat the power in his hands, wouldn't His Highness have a little more chance of inheriting the throne in the future?"

Fu Su thought about it carefully, and found that there was indeed some truth: "Okay, I will enter the palace right away, and meet my lord mother."

In the bedroom.

Sister Zheng was playing chess with Hu Yan, asking her about her recent life.

At this moment, Fu Su walked in quickly, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I have seen my lord."

The chess piece in Sister Zheng's hand paused, Feng Mou glanced at Fu Su in surprise: "Why did you come here suddenly?"

Usually Fusu either stays in the court to deal with government affairs, or stays in the palace to read books, and rarely comes here without her summoning.

Come here suddenly today, could something have happened?

Fu Su slowly raised her head, and looked at Sister Zheng with apricot eyes: "Mother, something happened in Xianyang City, and the official road was destroyed."

Sister Zheng frowned her slender willow eyebrows, and pondered: "Who did it?"

Hu Tan beside him also had a look of surprise on his fair and pretty face, and looked over curiously with strange eyes.

I want to see who has the guts to ruin the official way of the court.

Seeing that the two of them were looking over, Fu Su took a deep breath and said softly, "Return to my lord, the person who did this is Bai Su... Bai lord."

Hu Tan was taken aback for a moment, and his vermilion lips parted slightly. He didn't expect that this daring person was actually his own husband.

Chapter 230 Five Human High Quality Men

"Bai... Bai Su!"

A look of astonishment flashed in Sister Zheng's phoenix eyes, she really couldn't figure out why Bai Su was doing this so gracefully.

Based on her understanding of Bai Su's character, Bai Su is not the kind of reckless person.

After pondering for a long time, she looked at Fu Su in front of her: "Is what you said true?"

Fu Su couldn't help feeling nervous, and immediately tried to calm himself down: "Yes, now Bai Su is leading a group of people to plow down all the official roads around Xianyang City..."

"Impossible, how could Bai Su do such a thing."

Hu Yan stood up immediately, glaring angrily at Fusu in front of him.

After all, taking a group of people privately to destroy official roads, canals and other facilities is a felony, and if one is bad, he will be punished heavily.

Fu Su's expression was calm: "Many people in the city witnessed it with their own eyes. All this was directed by Bai Su. You have nothing to argue about."

Hu Yanhao bit her cherry lips with her teeth, and said in a panic, "Maybe someone misread it."

"This one person can get it wrong, three or four, seven or eight, can so many people get it wrong?"

"Yes."

"you……"

Sister Zheng waved her hand and said, "Okay, both of you stop arguing, and you will know exactly how to go and have a look."

Seeing what Zheng Jie said, the two had to look at each other and said in unison: "Yes."

Such a big commotion in Xianyang City naturally attracted the attention of many people.

For a time, many spectators gathered around.

When Sister Zheng's men and horses came over, the surrounding area was already crowded with people. It would have been really difficult to get in if the Imperial Guards hadn't cleared the way.

Under the leadership of the officials of the Shaofu, Zheng Jie quickly saw Bai Su's figure.

I saw him standing in front of a table, pointing to a blueprint, talking to Liu Ji next to him from time to time.

Under Liu Ji's reminder, Bai Su turned his head, with a smile on his face, cupped his hands and said, "See Your Majesty."

Sister Zheng nodded lightly, her phoenix eyes glanced at the messy ground around her, and she raised her slender eyebrows: "Bai Su, didn't I ask you to prepare for the military parade? Why did you tear down the road?"

Bai Su said with a smile on his face: "Of course it is to complete the military parade that His Majesty instructed."

"What does this military parade have to do with tearing down the road?" Fusu couldn't help asking.

Hu Tan opened his mouth, and his strange-colored eyes were also filled with doubts, and he looked at Bai Su.

Although she believed in Bai Su very much in her heart, the scene in front of her was indeed a little unreasonable, and she would really have trouble going through it without an explanation.

Bai Su coughed lightly, and said, "I tore down the road just for the military parade. Seeing that it is so dilapidated, I thought it would be better to build a new one instead of slowly tamping it down."

As the voice fell, the surroundings suddenly became quiet.

Even Hu Yan couldn't help being dazed for a moment, and looked at Bai Su in disbelief.

You know, this is not a small project.

With this order, Wanguan's money may be gone in less than a day, and spending money is like running water. This is not something that can be done casually.
