A salt field cannot be built in a day. From recruiting personnel to training, it takes several months to prepare.

Fortunately, it's winter now, and it's not the best time to produce edible salt. When it's built, it's just about the time of summer, when the tide starts and the salt is dried, it's just right!

Nuan and Nalan Jinnian stayed here for less than half a month, and they hurried back to the capital after they had finished the construction of the salt field and the training of the personnel.

At this time, it was already the twelfth lunar month.

They have to rush back to prepare for the New Year and Longevity.

The Longevity Festival is just after the New Year. Strictly speaking, at this time, the envoys of various countries have entered the territory of Nalan and are on their way to the capital.

The emperor flew the pigeons to pass the book, and asked Nalan Jinnian to go back quickly.

Nuan and Nalan Jinnian have been driving for half a month, day and night.

The carriage went all the way north, and it got colder as it went.

The temperature is so low that water turns to ice!

At the beginning of the morning, they saw that the fields on both sides of the road were covered with a layer of hoarfrost. The closer they got to the capital, the snow or ice!

The day before yesterday, a heavy snowstorm fell directly from the middle of the night, and it did not stop for two days in a row.

Most of the people in this dynasty were diligent and not afraid to do it.

Therefore, during the day, the villagers near the official road will also take the initiative to sweep the snow off the official road to make it easier for the merchants to come and go.

Traveling during the day is basically no problem.

At night, because everyone slept, the snow kept falling, so the snow on the road was thicker. The closer it was to dawn, the thicker the snow, and the more difficult it was to travel.

"This year's snow is a bit heavy!" Wen Nuan lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked at the snowstorm outside, worried.

Nalan Jinnian glanced at the fluttering snow outside and frowned slightly: "It's a bit big."

Fear of an avalanche.

The envoy team should be on the right now.

Lin Feng: "Ruixue is a good year. The year ahead will be very good!"

Nuan Wen: "Of course, but that will also happen in the coming year. I am worried that the snow is too heavy now, and this mountain road is prone to avalanches. Especially for the team on the mission, with such a long team, if an avalanche occurs, the consequences will be unimaginable."

On a snowy day, when walking on mountain roads, the most worrying thing is that there will be avalanches.

Wen Nuan didn't expect that there would be so many days of heavy snowstorms in a row, although she had already reminded Wen Jiarui to be careful of avalanches when they were on the road, especially on that part of the road!

But whether this avalanche will happen, and when it will happen, it is unpredictable!

Lin Feng heard the conversation between the two and comforted: "Don't worry, the county master, in the past few years, I have never heard of an avalanche on this road back to Beijing. It is very safe!"

Nuan Nuan remembered that when they set off, she saw a new road not far ahead, about a hundred meters or so.

The yellow mud was still sticking out.

The road was a lot closer because it dug a mountain and opened a section of the road.

But in these days of heavy snowstorms and heavy rain in summer, those newly opened mountain roads are the most dangerous.

Either avalanches are prone to occur, or mudslides are prone to occur.

Nuan was still worried. The most important thing was that, according to the letter from Xiao Hei yesterday, the team of envoys should be going through that section of the road today.

She felt that she should be reminded again.

Because the team of the envoys was huge, they did not travel overnight, they only traveled during the day, and halfway along the way, they encountered a few days when the road was blocked by heavy wind and snow, so the road was delayed for a few days.

Therefore, Nuanneng and the others are about to catch up with the envoy team.

Warmly said to Nalan Jinnian: "Seventeen Brother"

What Nuan thought about it, Nalan Jinnian also thought about it at the moment, he clapped his warm hand: "I know what you are worried about, I asked Xiao Hei to remind them and tell them that there may be an avalanche on the newly opened mountain road. , let them go faster when they pass by."

Nalan Jinnian took out a mouth flute made of ceramics and blew it.

Xiao Hei is hovering in the sky.

Hearing the sound, he flew down immediately.

Warmly touched Xiao Hei's head: "Xiao Hei, do you know that there is a new mountain road ahead?"

Xiao Hei nodded: I know!

It didn't know how many times it flew over this road to send letters back and forth. When the villagers drove out the mountain road, it also saw it!

Seeing it nodding, Wennuan continued: "The newly opened mountain road, because the mountain is destroyed, the soil is loose. Now the snow is so heavy, and it is still falling two or three times. I am worried that there will be an avalanche, you go to remind. Let my dad be careful when they go through that mountain road."

Xiao Hei patted his chest with his wings: Don't worry, leave it to me!

Then it flapped its wings and flew away.

Nalan Jinnian said to Wen Nuan, "I'll ride over there first. You go over in a carriage. If Uncle Wen and the others pass smoothly, I'll come back."

This kind of thing can be big or small. There are so many soldiers and so much money. If it encounters an avalanche, it will be troublesome.

Nalan Jinnian was also uneasy, so he just rode over to take a look.

Hearing the words, Wen Nuan immediately refused: "I'll go with you on horseback!"

Nalan Jinnian disagreed: "It's snowing too much! Besides, you won't be able to help with this kind of thing! I'll just go! You won't be slowed down much by a carriage!"

"Okay, I'm not afraid of Xue Da, don't be long-winded, let's go together."

Wen Nuan lifted the curtain of the carriage, and then jumped directly from the carriage to the horse's back.

Along the way, their horses all followed behind the body of the horse, so that in special circumstances, they could change their horses to leave.

Nalan Jinnian couldn't help her, so she could only pick up the cape from the carriage and jump on the horse.

At the same time, put the cloak on her body: "Then put on the cloak!"

"Okay!" Warmly fastened the straps of the cloak and put on the hat. The two rode their horses and ran away quickly.

The speed of Lin Feng's carriage has also accelerated.

at this time

The mighty team carrying 50 million taels of gold moved forward against the wind and snow.

Those walking soldiers had their noses red from the cold!

Their hands and feet were so frozen that they could not feel it.

"Oh my god, what the hell is this weather? We're going to the capital soon, can't we go out for a few days at night?" Liu Kai led the team and walked in the front.

"No, it's freezing to death when it's snowing!" A lieutenant beside him echoed.

"I don't know when the snow will fall. Really, stop now! Otherwise, how many poor people will suffer, and this house may collapse!"

Wen Jiarui was sitting in the carriage, and he kept raising the curtains. Look at the snow falling outside.

It's a good thing that it's snowing heavily, Ruixue is a good year!

Covering the wheat with a thick layer of snow is also better for winter.

But if it falls too hard, it becomes a snow disaster!
