Datang: At the beginning, Li Er eavesdropped on his heart

Chapter 42 The root lies in the five surnames and seven hopes!

If she continues to stay, the eldest grandson Pinting still doesn't know what to say. If she is soft-hearted and agrees, wouldn't it be the end of the calf?
Besides, the eldest grandson Pinting is just a child messing around now, so there is nothing to care about.

Thinking of this, Changsun Wuji didn't take the matter to heart, and went to Changsun Chong's room instead.

At this moment, Chang Sun Chong was reading the Four Books and Five Classics. Chang Sun Wuji nodded his head when he looked at the serious Chang Sun Chong.

"Father, why are you here?" Changsun Chong sensed someone behind him, looked back, and saw Changsun Wuji
He immediately stood up and saluted respectfully.

"There's nothing wrong with it. During this period of time, you should review carefully, and then go to participate in it, and prepare well for this competition."

"Yes, father, please rest assured that your son will work hard."

After Changsun Wuji heard the words, he left contentedly.

A few days passed in a blink of an eye.

Li Min had just woken up when he heard the housekeeper say that Cheng Yaojin was asking for a meeting. Li Min suddenly looked confused. What was Cheng Yaojin doing at this time?
But after thinking about it, since he came to find him, he probably has something to do.

Immediately he said without hesitation, "Let General Cheng in."

The butler left immediately.

Li Yin also asked the maid on the side to help him change his clothes. Soon, after tidying up, he got up and went out, and came to the lobby.

Cheng Yaojin had been waiting outside for a long time, and Li Yin leisurely walked to the lobby, kicked his calf, and climbed onto the grand master's chair

, shaking his short legs and said:
"General Cheng, why are you here? Don't you train those soldiers? If you lose the game to me then, you will lose face."

Li Yin said with a smile.

Cheng Yaojin's expression suddenly changed, and a surge of anger rushed from the soles of his feet directly to Tianling Gai.

But this time he was on business.

Thinking of this, he immediately said to Li Yin: "His Royal Highness Liang Wang, this time the general has something important to discuss with His Highness."

"The fine salt has basically passed the inspection and is almost ready for use. In addition, His Majesty has been urging the general, so I will ask if it is possible to start selling fine salt in the future? What is the appropriate price?"

Fine salt has been produced for a long time, but there are still some that have not been refined, and a large amount of production is still needed, so the sales are delayed again and again.

Now the only coarse salt in the imperial court is basically refined into fine salt, which happens to be ready for sale. Li Shimin is also very concerned about this time, and asks Cheng Yaojin every now and then.

When Li Min heard this, he suddenly remembered that there was such a thing as fine salt. He almost forgot about it.

Immediately after he pondered for a moment, he said:
"The price of fine salt should not be too high, otherwise it will become exclusive to the rich and powerful, and the common people still have to eat coarse salt, so the price should be consistent with coarse salt."

"Although the salt is basically re-sold by the government, there are also many smugglers of coarse salt. If the price of fine salt rises, the coarse salt sold by those smugglers will become the life-saving straw for the people at the bottom. There will be more illegal salt sellers."

"But if the price of fine salt is about the same as that of coarse salt, then the common people will definitely not buy coarse salt, and those who sell coarse salt don't know how to refine coarse salt into fine salt, so that they can cut off coarse salt. Salt smuggling."

hiss!
After hearing these words, Cheng Yaojin took a deep breath, and his whole body was as if enlightened, suddenly enlightened.

I didn't expect Li Yin to think so thoroughly, and what he said was quite reasonable.

The smuggling of coarse salt is the most serious matter in Datang, and it is also a matter that is not stopped at all.

Because the root of the smuggling of coarse salt is the five surnames and Qiwang!

"Hearing His Royal Highness King Liang's words today, it's like another family in the dark, and it really didn't come in vain this time."

Cheng Yaojin was so excited that he spoke again and again.

After Li Yin heard Cheng Yaojin's words, he couldn't laugh or cry, and immediately corrected:
"General Cheng's is called another village."

"Hahaha, my old Cheng is a big bastard, His Royal Highness Liang Wang don't care about so many details, I will go first and let them start selling salt."

Cheng Yaojin couldn't wait any longer.

"General Cheng, wait a moment. I haven't finished what I said. Although the price of fine salt can't be too high, we can add fine salt and divide it into grades. How to subdivide it? General Cheng should Do you know it in your heart?"

Li Yin said again, after all, although fine salt was extracted, there was also a distinction in quality.

If it is divided into three, six, nine, etc., it can still cut a wave of leeks from these princes and nobles.

Those people will definitely choose the most expensive one to buy.

When Cheng Yaojin heard this, he suddenly realized, and laughed loudly: "His Royal Highness Liang, this general has already understood, and indeed His Royal Highness Liang is worthy of being talented, and this general admires him!"

"The general will take his leave first."

Li Yin nodded, and immediately Cheng Yaojin strode away.

Soon the entire Chang'an City became very lively, and everyone rushed towards the mansion where the official salt was sold.

"Have you heard? This time the imperial court has refined fine salt, and it tastes better than coarse salt, and the price has not changed."

"Really? Where did you hear it? Could it be another gossip?"

"How can there be any gossip, the court has posted an announcement, why don't you believe it?"

"Yes, I bought it yesterday, and it tastes great."

.........

The common people talked a lot and ran towards the mansion where the official salt was sold one by one.

In an instant, the people in the entire Chang'an City ate fine salt.

Even those dignitaries sent people to buy them.

Within a day, all the fine salt was looted, and the speed was astonishingly fast.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Cheng Yaojin was ecstatic in his heart, and immediately asked people to count the money, and sent them to Prince Liang's mansion and the palace respectively.

But at this moment Li Yin looked at the money sent, and suddenly felt happy, this time it can be said that he earned a lot.

On the other hand, Li Shimin was also overjoyed when he saw the money sent. You must know that the Tang Dynasty has not been established for a long time, and Li Shimin has not been enthroned for a long time, so the treasury is very empty on the one hand.

This time, the financial revenue obtained from selling fine salt is actually more than before.

Of course, this is also thanks to Li Yin's three-six-six-nine price.

It fully doubled these fine salts dozens of times!
"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Liang Wang is the smart one who differentiated the price of fine salt. Sure enough, many princes and ministers rushed to buy it first, and the price was more than doubled."
