Mythic version of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 71
Happy Mid-Autumn Festival everyone~ I will add more to this traditional festival...

With this big killer, Chen Xi is ready to abduct those famous officials from Yingchuan who had been picked up from Yuan Shao and prepared to return to their hometown from Mount Tai. His goal is to kill them all in one fell swoop!
Lu Su and Chen Xi talked all night, and the next day they went to the government affairs hall with dark circles under their eyes. Liu Bei happily gave Chen Xi the seal of the county governor of Taishan, and then handed over the seal of the governor of Taishan, which Chen Xi had unloaded. Give it to Lu Su.The government affairs are completely completed, and Chen Xi seems to have no promotion.

As the bandit leaders of Mount Tai were persuaded by Zang Ba to surrender one by one, the remaining idiots who were stubborn and ignorant of the number of days were all combed by the new army led by Guan Er Ye and Zhang Fei, and Mount Tai was considered stable. Now Guan Yu and Zhang Fei have also returned to Fenggao with their captives.

"Zijing, this is the amount of arable land this year, the tax rate is with Zilong, and there is food supplied to the central government. After you calculate it, give a similar amount." Chen Xi planned the things to be done in the autumn and winter and started to work. Handling the current government affairs, similar to before, Chen Xi only arranges people and sets general goals, and someone will come up with the charter after all.

For example, now Lu Su is a person who really does things, and Chen Xi is basically talking. He is very clear about his strengths, he has vision and experience, but he is not good at doing things. Professional things are left to professional people. It's only natural to do it. Besides, don't you see that Lu Su is very satisfied that he is being reused and wants to show himself, so Chen Xi throws some things to Lu Su, Siying general of Soochow, and the burden should be focused.

"How can I give a rough number, one is one, two is two, how can the policy be vague, isn't this an opportunity for subordinates to accept bribes?" Lu Su solemnly rejected Chen Xi's kindness.

"Oh, I mean you only need to report the whole number, and the latter will be used as subsidies for the county and village elders, widows and so on during the New Year. They are not easy, and they should enjoy the support." Chen Xi casually said. Said with an excuse.

"After the distribution, the remaining part will be used as a subsidy for our outstanding students in the coming year. It is said that once those teenagers start studying, there will be one less labor force in the family. Even if they don't care, the people will grit their teeth to support a student, but I think it is still a bit more humane. "Chen Xi said with a yawn, and then came up with a series of good ideas for gaining reputation.

"This method is very good, but why didn't Zichuan write a charter?" Lu Su nodded and saw the benefits of these two moves. He raised his head and asked curiously.

"It's too simple, don't waste paper when you explain it." Chen Xi came up with another reason, and it was reasonable.

To say that Chen Xi is right, since the paper began to be used in the Government Affairs Office, Mi Zhu has paid attention to the paper. After getting Chen Xi's promise, it can be sold, and he will be sold exclusively in the south at that time. After getting this benefit, Mi Zhu It's a lot more peaceful, but I still come to the Government Affairs Hall from time to time to beat the autumn wind.

Fortunately, a few days ago, Chen Xi couldn't stand the inexplicable disappearance of the paper he prepared, so he gave him the sales license of refined salt in Yangzhou, Jingzhou, Yuzhou, and Xuzhou, and asked him to go to Su Shuang with his documents. Going to pick up the salt, after more than three months of preparation, Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping have already produced sea salt that is enough to defeat several other big salt merchants.

Chen Xi naturally did not know that Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping only did preliminary purification in pursuit of speed. As for the second purification written by Chen Xi in detail, there were no birds. Anyway, the salt obtained after preliminary purification was far darker than the well salt in Shuzhong in their opinion. The yellow lump was too strong, and there was no odor, so the last step was directly abandoned by the two of them.

If these things are left now, they will definitely be pulled out to eat peanuts, but at that time, even if Chen Xi saw Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping doing that, he would have nothing to say. After all, the common people still use some salty stones. At that time, Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping’s approach was really to benefit the society, and they were sold so cheaply. According to the universal morality at the time, this was a benevolent businessman comparable to Spring and Autumn Fan Li…

Since Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping both eat the salt they sell, what else can you say? People who make salt can rest assured of their own salt. What else do you want to say when you eat salt?
So Chen Xi has no idea how much salt Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping have made. After the opening this time, even if it is sold in all Hanzhou County, it is estimated that it will last until March next year. Hurry up, even Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping are now having a headache how to transport them out.

"Report, it's important to be a mistress." Just as Chen Xi continued to assign tasks to Lu Su, a messenger ran over.

"Please come in, Zizhong." Chen Xi raised his head and frowned slightly.

"I don't know why Zizhong is back this time." Lu Su said with a smile, "Zichuan is probably very sad that Zizhong is back."

"That's not true. I'm just worried that there is a problem in Qingzhou. That is the basis of my plan for the next year." Chen Xi shook his head and said.

"Hey, we have a plan in Qingzhou?" Lu Su looked at Chen Xi in amazement, he didn't know about such a big event.

"Well, this matter is part of my business plan, and I'll show it to you." Chen Xi pointed to the stack of Lu Su documents, saying that Lu Su had read it before.

"Salt industry?" Lu Su thought for a moment and remembered that Chen Xi had written in the document to go to Qingzhou to engage in the salt industry. Who could understand it so simple.

"Yeah, it is estimated that Zizhong also came back because of this. I don't know if the situation is good or bad. I haven't contacted Su Shuang and the others in recent months." Chen Xi said that he didn't know either.

"I have seen the county governor, the county chief." Mi Zhu trotted in, and could see that the matter was not trivial. Even Mi Zhu, who was quite a gentleman, didn't have time to wash up and hurried to find Chen Xi and Lu Su.

"Zizhong doesn't need to be polite, you look in a hurry, but something happened in Qingzhou?" Chen Xi's face was a little ugly. At that time, he chose Qingzhou, but now it's really bad.

Mi Zhu quickly explained the ins and outs, and Chen Xi was relieved immediately. As for Lu Su, he was already frightened. Too much salt could not be transported out. This is the basis for Liu Bei's take-off in the coming year, which is really a big deal!

It turned out that after Mi Zhu went to Qingzhou with Chen Xi's note, Su Shuang and Su Shuang, who were melancholy transported, were overjoyed. They couldn't get it out by themselves. Couldn't Mi Zhu, the owner of the five great merchants, get it out?So Su Shuang patted Mi Zhu's chest and said that salt is not a problem.

Mi Zhu was stunned when he saw the [-] tantals of refined salt that Su Shuang had allocated to him, and Su Shuang also said that he could pick up the goods first and then pay. The brothers are all so rich that they don't even have to pay the deposit. After making the money, they will settle the account, and they said that they only need to earn one salary.

Although Mi Zhu was a businessman, he had a gentleman's demeanor. Seeing that Su Shuang and the two were melancholy about how to transport the salt, Mi Zhu expressed that he was willing to pay for the transportation, but when he saw all the salt in Su Shuang's inventory, he became stupid. Too much salt is shipped out by conventional methods, and it is impossible not to disturb others.

After thinking about it, Mi Zhu felt that this could only be done by sea, the only way to avoid the attention of others, and the family with such experience was the Jiangdong Lu family, and now the Gongsun family in Youzhou, and these two families he Mi Zhu I have also communicated with Jiangdong Lujia, but the question now is whether Chen Xi can allow Jiangdong Lujia to join!
