Chapter 150 Business Opportunities
"Let's talk about punishing corrupt officials. Since we punish corrupt officials, we should return the people's fat and anointing that corrupt officials have scraped off to the people. What we do is taken from the people and used for the people. But where does the money go? Are you still filling yourself up from time to time?"

"Finally, the sage said, teaching is practiced in the world, and everything should be based on teaching. If you abuse punishment and punish at will, how is it different from the ancient tyrants!"

"That's why I said that the Holy Majesty is a little stupid now. His Majesty has just been on the throne for less than a year. His foundation is stable. He doesn't want to stabilize people's hearts, but he thinks about how to eradicate his courtiers. Isn't it absurd? Is it not a problem for them to let their family dominate? All in all, what the Holy Majesty is doing today is too childish! If this continues, Datang will be at stake!"

Wu Zhengdao talked eloquently, Li Chengdao and Suzaku listened carefully, and their thoughts were completely different.

What Li Chengdao thought was that although this scholar seemed frivolous and arrogant, he had a well-founded analysis of things and cited scriptures, so he was a talent that could be developed.

What Suzaku thought in his heart was that this kid with his nostrils turned upside down, with boundless arrogance, dared to be so presumptuous in front of His Majesty, he probably would be overwhelmed for a while!
"Listening to your words is worth ten years of studying. Brother Wu, in your opinion, what would you do if you were asked to do these things?"

Li Chengdao's question made Wu Zhengdao stunned. Although he talked about state affairs every day, he never put himself in the position to think about the solution strategy, and Li Chengdao's assumption implied that what would happen if he sat in the emperor's position. It's a big treason, if you follow Li Chengdao's words, wouldn't it be... Thinking of this, Wu Zhengdao was immediately stunned.

"Brother, these words are like a trap. If I say it, it will be really treasonous, but let's be honest, my dear friend, if I can get an official position in the imperial court with God's grace, I will try my best to change this!"

"Brother Wu, don't worry about it, it's just a chat, let's see each other by fate!"

After finishing speaking, Li Chengdao, Suzaku and others returned to their seats, while Wu Zhengdao stared at Suzaku leaving in a daze, feeling lost in his heart, and left the shop as if he had lost his mind.

After Wu Zhengdao left, Li Chengdao asked Kong Ming: "What do you think of this man?"

"He is impatient and a little arrogant, but he still has some talents and learning, but his vision is a bit short-sighted, and he doesn't see things deeply enough. If he takes time to hone, he should be a pillar of talent!"

"What you think, sir, is exactly what Chengdao thinks!" Li Chengdao said: "Sir, you are the chief examiner of this Enke examination. Did Wu Zhengdao take part in the imperial examination?"

When Kong Ming heard this, his face turned red and he said, "Master, have you forgotten? The aftermath of Kong Yunzhi's incident has not been resolved, and the last exam has been cancelled. We are waiting for the conclusion of Kong Yunzhi's case before the exam can start again!"

Li Chengdao thought for a moment when he heard the words, and said: "There is no need to delay this matter, Suzaku, send two people to check the background of Wu Zhengdao, if there is no problem, then..."

"Don't worry, prince... Young Master, this subordinate has been waiting impatiently for a long time, so this subordinate immediately went to check it himself. If there is no problem, this subordinate will definitely take off his two arms and vent my anger on you, Young Master!"

Zhu Que was eager to try, Li Chengdao looked shocked, this girl looks harmless to humans and animals, why is her heart so dark, are all girls who know martial arts like this?

Seeing that Suzaku was about to leave, Li Chengdao hurriedly stopped him and said, "Master Suzaku, you misunderstood me, I meant to ask you to check, if he has nothing to do with the people in General Tiance's mansion, I will order Master Kong Ming to send him As disciples of this person, he is good at training and will serve the country in the future!"

"Ah?" Suzaku scratched his head when he heard the words and said, "I thought the young master meant... I didn't expect the young master to be so magnanimous. Well, let's spare him for now, young master, please wait a little longer. This subordinate will tell the people of Jinyiwei Go touch his bottom!"

After finishing speaking, Suzaku ran out in a hurry. As soon as Suzaku arrived on the street, he saw a ghostly person approaching. Suzaku whispered a few words to him, and the man saluted briefly, and then disappeared into the vast crowd .

"This Suzaku is like a female version of a hammer!" Li Chengdao said to Kong Ming with a smile.

"Ah Choo!" Chang'an Mansion Yamen sneezed with a big stick and hammer, then woke up in a daze, looked around and wiped his nose and said, "Who misses me?"

On the other side, after Suzaku ordered, he returned to his seat. Now that the food was cold, Li Chengdao had no choice but to order the store to take it back and warm it up before serving it.

The three of them waited for a while, and the store brought back the hot food. Li Chengdao, Kong Ming and the others realized that their stomachs were already growling with hunger.

Li Chengdao quickly picked up a dish with chopsticks and put it in his mouth, but as soon as he took it, he felt that the taste of the dish was weird, so he spit it out in one mouthful.

"What's the matter with this dish? Why is it so unpalatable?"

Li Chengdao frowned and asked, Kong Ming, Ma Zhong, and Suzaku were also very strange. Kong Ming carefully picked up a dish with chopsticks, put it in his mouth, chewed it a few times, and said: "Young master, this dish is the same. Same as usual?"

Hearing this, Li Chengdao tried to taste other dishes, but they tasted the same. At this time, Li Chengdao realized that this dish seemed to have no salt.

Li Chengdao called to the store and asked, "Shop, do you not put salt in this dish?"

"The guest officer is just joking!" the shopkeeper said with a smile on his face, "This salt is not affordable for a small shop. Even if a small shop like ours buys the shop, I'm afraid they can't afford a bag of fine salt! What's more, this thing has always had a price but no market, and the imperial court has extremely strict control!"

After Li Chengdao heard this, he fell into thinking. He asked the store to leave. Suddenly, he turned around and asked, "Sir, is what this store said true? Is fine salt so rare among the people nowadays?"

"That's right, son, although the output of salt mines is good, the taste of coarse salt is difficult to swallow and cannot be used directly. The production of fine salt is very difficult, and the production volume is very small. At present, it can only be supplied to the royal family first, so the people generally use it. Vinegar cloth!"

Li Chengdao suddenly felt that his eyes lit up, isn't this a great business opportunity?The refining of fine salt was already very simple and common in my own time. For example, it was mass-produced, and even elementary school students could extract it at home.

But in this day and age, fine salt is still in the predicament of being difficult to manufacture and extract. If you can produce fine salt in large quantities, will you have to lay off employees from time to time in the future?
Thinking of this, Li Chengdao couldn't help laughing, and asked: "Mr. Kong Ming, I have thought of it, and I have a solution!"

Speaking of this, Li Chengdao couldn't wait to go back to the palace to try it out, he didn't eat any food, and after paying the money, he ran towards the palace without stopping.

Seeing this, Kong Ming and Ma Zhong decided not to eat, and followed closely behind, while Suzaku, who was about to feast on the meal, looked reluctant, but because of his duty, he added a big mouthful of vegetables and put it into his mouth. Also hastily followed.
