Chapter 992 Hiring at a High Price
After the two had a drink, Li Jing immediately asked: "Master Wu Yazi, I have heard a little about your education, but I don't understand the reason. Just let the two emperors do chores, and they just let you do some chores." I can understand the reasoning...the people invited by the widow before were all the important ministers of the country, why can't they teach?"

Tianya said: "Back to Your Majesty, the situation is actually not as complicated as imagined. The principle is good, but some people can't listen to it. They go in one ear and out the other. They can't remember it at all, and they won't take it to heart. What's going on at this time? There is no point in talking, only beating. My teacher once said that violence is the only truth in the world. If he is not convinced, beat him until he is convinced. If he is not satisfied, beat him until he is happy. After beating him, even if you don’t teach him, he will understand. The truth is. Naturally, Pindao will not directly beat the two princes, so forcing them to do hard work has the same effect as beating. After the hard work, they will reflect on the past. As long as their brains are enlightened, other things will be taken for granted. The main reason is that the two princes are originally talented and intelligent. As long as they are sincere and upright, they will naturally understand the real principles of the world from these hard work. These principles cannot be learned elsewhere. Only by doing these hard work themselves can they Really understand.”

"There is such a thing..." Li Jing nodded thoughtfully. In his eyes, he never knew that doing so could make a person better.But Taoist Wu Yazi's words are very reasonable. Violence is the only truth in the world. If you don't accept it, you can hit it. If you don't accept it, you can continue to fight... This sentence is easy to wake people up.

It is true that sometimes it is useless to teach others more principles. The real truth is actually very simple, just one word... type.Only after understanding the most basic truth can we accept other truths for granted.

Li Congjia also admired him, as expected of Zong Xin's disciple, Tianya's standard is indeed very high.At least he has no way to teach the two elder brothers well, but in his eyes everything is very simple.The method that the eldest brother came up with is also very good. He even dared to use the sea route to go to Khitan, and then go to the Wang Clan, and bring the Wang Clan people back to Shouzhou to install defense equipment.

This is just the result of Tianya's casual teaching. If Tianya himself were to attack Shouzhou...how could he defend?This kid is too powerful. Although he knew about it a long time ago, when he saw it again, his growth was still shocking.

When I was studying Bamu, I knew how to learn from things to know, and to be sincere.But Tianya did a great job, he did these four things at the same time, and the most important thing is not to let the two elder brothers learn about things, but to let them be sincere.If the heart is not right, hit it right with your fist.

Tian Ya's method was very good. After the two elder brothers were beaten, they changed completely.So they also comprehend the principle of studying things to gain knowledge, not just comprehending but doing it by themselves. After doing those humble jobs, they comprehended the most basic principles.

In fact, this world is complicated, it is indeed complicated.But to put it simply, it is really simple.Just like Tianya’s master Zongxin, he discovered the method of drying salt. The principle is not difficult. A bowl of water will disappear after a while. In the past, all seawater was boiled with fire. The principle is exactly the same.

Cooking with fire will not only waste wood and labor, but the most important thing is that it will be greatly restricted. Who can have such a big pot to cook salt?Only a little bit can be cooked at a time, so the production of salt has been low, and the price of salt has remained high.

But Zongxin’s method is to use the sun directly. The heat of the sun is naturally not as good as fire, but this removes the limitation of the container. The salt ponds on Salt Island are very large, and they can process a lot of seawater at one time.Moreover, seawater is inexhaustible and inexhaustible. Apart from the need for some labor, Salt Island is simply a no-cost business.

Just because Zong Xin figured out this very small and inconspicuous truth, he became the richest man in the world in an instant, and Zong Xin was not stingy with the craft of drying salt method, and directly taught the method of drying salt to the people all over the coast. This kind of behavior directly lowered the price of salt, so that all the people in the world can eat salt with confidence, and it is not coarse salt, but a very fine variety.

Zong Xin not only made money, but also gained an excellent reputation.

Zong Xin's high resourcefulness can be seen from this point.If he controls the salt-drying method, there will definitely be many people who want to go to Yandao to spy, and the Southern Tang Dynasty has even prepared the navy to directly attack Yandao.

But at that time, Zong Xin was already too rich, and he didn't need to make more money at all, so he announced the Sun Salt Law.

Salt Island is safe, no one will attack it, but Salt Island still makes money, just not as much as a monopoly. This does not prevent Salt Island from being the most profitable business in the world.

This is just a small plan of Zong Xin. Li Congjia is very clear about what Zong Xin has done these years.

In addition to Yandao, Li Congjia's shochu also made Li Congjia's eyes shine. Shochu was not unavailable in the Southern Tang Palace, but it was a tribute, and everyone felt that the alcohol was too strong.Never thought of other possibilities.

Only Zong Xin, he actually brought back the production process of shochu from Persia, which directly turned Dugu Valve into the most profitable business in the world.But the Dugu Clan was only a flash in the pan, and was defeated in an instant. Maybe it was because Zong Xin was dead and no one was guarding the Dugu Clan, or maybe... Zong Xin was the one who destroyed the Dugu Clan.

At that time, after Li Hongji came back from the Dugu Clan, he told everyone the whole story.At that time, Li Congjia also had a feeling that maybe that person was Zong Xin.But he didn't have evidence, he just felt that this was Zong Xin's style.

Zong Xin was definitely not the kind of person who would be killed easily. Although many people confirmed that Zong Xin was dead, Li Congjia really didn't believe it.

Li Congjia said: "Master Wu Yazi, just now Xiao Wang and elder brother have done a few tricks, and found that elder brother's claws are not only the Ten Hands of the Eagle, but also a very sharp claw, what is the name of this set of claws? "

"This... the Six Paths of Reincarnation Claws. His Highness the Crown Prince only learned the second claw. The Second Highness is better. He has already learned the third claw." Tian Ya said: "The poor way is not good at claws, but the Crown Prince and His Highness the Second Highness has practiced the Ten Hands of Heavenly Eagle since childhood, and has a good foundation in claw techniques, so Pindao taught them some other claw techniques, which are easier to learn."

"So this is the Six Paths of Reincarnation Claws..." Of course Li Congjia knew the origin of the Claws, this is Yaochi's special skill.Apart from Zong Xin and Yaoyao, the only person who knows this set of claw techniques is Tian Ya, who is really brave enough to teach his two older brothers such an easily revealing claw technique.

Venerable Bailian said: "So it's the six realms of reincarnation? This claw technique should be the special skill of Yaochi Yaochi. How did Taoist Master Wu Yazi learn it?"

"Family teachers are all over the world, and there is no martial art in this world that a family teacher can't master. Who do you think Yaofei Yaochi learned this set of claw skills from?"

Venerable Bailian nodded immediately, and the explanation was clear in this way.Although Venerable Bailian was also very curious about Wu Yazi's identity before, since the Third Highness said that he considered Senior Xiaoyaozi and had been instructed by Senior Xiaoyaozi, there should be no problem with this matter.

Think about it, the Third Highness is a blind man, his martial arts are so good, it must have something to do with Senior Xiaoyaozi.It seems that the Third Highness also met Senior Xiaoyaozi because of good luck, otherwise his martial arts would not be so powerful.

Li Congjia also understood that Tianya wanted to nod himself to admit that there was Xiaoyaozi, as long as he nodded, everything he said was reasonable, and no one would doubt his identity.

Li Hongji said: "Third brother, what exactly is Senior Xiaoyaozi like? Does he look like an outsider? If there is a chance, I really want to meet Senior Xiaoyaozi."

"Oh~~ I don't know what it is, I only remember the feeling, it is indeed the feeling of a generation of masters."

"Oh~~" Li Hongji also felt that he had made a slip of the tongue. The third brother must continue to pretend to be blind in front of others, so even if he had seen Xiaoyaozi, he couldn't describe his appearance, otherwise he would be out of order.

Everyone was wondering what kind of person Senior Xiaoyaozi was.According to the name, he should be a Taoist priest like Taoist Wu Yazi, and his state should be similar to that of Venerable Bailian, but he is more imposing than him.

Li Jing said: "Prince Wu Yazi, I heard that the Taoist priest is short of money, so someone recommended the Taoist priest to be the dog's guard, a thousand taels of gold for half a year, I don't know if there is such a thing."

"Exactly..."

"The widow is willing to pay ten times the price to ask the Taoist priest Wu Yazi to persist for another half a year. After all, the crown prince Li Hongji is going to the Khitan border, which is extremely dangerous. If Wu Yazi is with him, the widow can feel at ease. Don't be fooled. What kind of guards, being a staff general doesn't require you to do anything, just to come up with ideas once in a while."

One thousand taels of gold in half a year, this is already an absolutely sky-high price.Although Li Jing is not a money fan like those of the Zhao clan, he still values ​​money very much.Because the national treasury is short of money all year round, Li Jing has developed a somewhat money-obsessed character.

Asking Li Jing to take out [-] taels of gold would definitely kill him. Even Li Hongji and Li Hongmao couldn't even ask him to ask for so much money.

But for Wu Yazi, Li Jing is willing.Because he thought Wu Yazi was a waste of talent as a bodyguard, if he could use it for himself, it would be of great help.

It's just that the apprentices taught by such a worldly master are a bit weird. It may be really difficult for him to become an official, but it would be good to be a staff officer. Besides, his requirements are not high, and it only takes half a year.

Li Jing knew that this trip was extremely dangerous, and it was absolutely impossible to easily bring the Wang Clan's people back to Shouzhou.But as long as Li Hongji did it, it would be a great achievement.And it can also guarantee the safety of Shouzhou. This is a very meaningful thing, and of course Li Jing must fully support it.

Although Li Hongji has completely changed now, his ability is still a bit weaker.Because it is such a dangerous thing, it needs a person with strong martial arts to do it.Li Jing originally hoped that Li Congjia would do this, but Chaoli couldn't do without Li Congjia. He didn't even know much about many things, so he needed him to deal with them.
