Daming: Refining zombies at the beginning, Lao Zhu was shocked

After Zhu Biao heard Zhu Yuanzhang's words, he had a strange look on his face!

Not normal!

The old man is so unusual today!

"Lao Jiu is already dissatisfied with this old man!"

Zhu Yuanzhang ignored the strange look on Zhu Biao's face and sighed after putting away the memorial.

"Dad, why do you say that?"

When Zhu Biao heard this, he had a look of surprise on his face.

"It should be because of Old Fourteenth. Old Nine thought that we didn't trust him anymore. He thought that we asked Old Fourteenth to go to Gansu to join the vassal state just to share his military power!"

Zhu Yuanzhang explained with a wry smile.

When Zhu Biao heard this, he shook his head helplessly.

Isn’t this something that anyone with a discerning eye can see?

The old man sent the fourteenth son to Gansu. Dare you say it was not for the purpose of dividing the military power of the ninth man?

Although he didn't say it out loud, he thought so too!

"Dad, if salt merchants in the north have to pay % tax, then those in the south must also pay % tax!"

Zhu Biao spoke at this time.

He always thinks more comprehensively when doing things!

Refined salt is extremely profitable!

To be honest, the tax of out of is really not high!

This is completely equivalent to a cornucopia of energy for the imperial court, continuously amassing wealth for the imperial treasury!

Even if the tax is one per ten, there will probably be a lot of businessmen trying to get in!

However, we cannot make any distinction between northern and southern merchants in preferential treatment!

Merchants in the north pay one tax per ten, but you can't tax one per ten to thirty, right?

Regarding the salt merchant tax alone, the entire Ming Dynasty must be unified!

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he nodded in agreement. This is indeed the truth!

In this way, the decision about Hanzhong refined salt was directly finalized by Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao!

"By the way, Biao'er, is the Li family's wedding party ready?"

After the formal discussion, Zhu Yuanzhang asked about the marriage between Zhu Yue and Li Shangshu's daughter.

"We're ready. Choose a good day and arrange the waterway to Hanzhong!"

Zhu Biao nodded slowly and said.

Zhu Biao also knew that the old man married Li to Lao Jiu mainly to ease the relationship between Lao Jiu and the civil servants!

"Very well, let's get this done as soon as possible."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with satisfaction.

"I just don't know if Lao Jiu is happy with it. You know his temper. If someone is sent to Hanzhong, he..."

Zhu Biao suddenly became worried.

Zhu Yuanzhang had previously said that he would arrange concubines or concubines for Zhu Yue, but without exception, Zhu Yue vetoed them all!

This time, Zhu Yuanzhang simply did not notify Lao Jiu directly, but directly announced an imperial edict to the world!

It is estimated that by the time the decree arrives in Hanzhong, the procession of seeing off the bride will already be on the way!

This is equivalent to the old man giving Lao Jiu a round of killing first and then showing off!

"Huh, I can't help him this time!"

"We are going to ask his mother-in-law to go to Hanzhong Mansion in person and watch him marry the Li family girl for us!"

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he showed a scheming smile.

Zhu Biao: "..."

Is there any other way to do this?

But it seems that only by asking Concubine Zhou to go there in person can she persuade Lao Jiu, a stubborn donkey!

Perhaps Lao Jiu dared not give Zhu Yuanzhang, his biological father, face, but he had always been very filial to his biological mother, Concubine Zhou!

Of course, Zhu Yuanzhang would not tell Zhu Biao openly that the reason why he arranged for Concubine Zhou to go to Hanzhong was more importantly for the longevity pill in Lao Jiu's hand!

"You are really awesome!"

After Zhu Biao figured it out, he nodded somewhat dumbfounded.

Soon, the news about Hanzhong refined salt came out from the palace.

Zhu Yuanzhang also summoned six ministers and talked about the reform of refined salt. The official salt produced by the imperial court in the past will gradually reduce its output in the future until it eventually withdraws from the stage of history. From now on, the imperial court will import salt from Hanzhong Prefecture. Buy refined salt!

Taking the Yangtze River waterway from the northwest to the south of the Yangtze River, this transportation line for refined salt is also very convenient!

And this news soon spread throughout Yingtian Mansion.

The residence of Duke Liang.

Lan Yu, Chang Sheng, Feng Sheng, Fu Youde and other Huaixi nobles all gathered together. Apparently they had just heard about Hanzhong refined salt policy!

"Now we're in trouble!"

"The imperial court started using refined salt produced in Hanzhong, which is equivalent to cutting off all our previous routes!"

"While the news has just come out, all the people under my command have to sell all the salt they have hoarded at low prices!"

"As much as you can keep!"

In the end, these nobles had no choice but to accept this dumb loss by default!

These nobles, more or less, have some gray industries. The matter of selling private salt is just a matter of quantity and quantity!

But once the refined salt from Hanzhong flows into the entire Daming market, their previous business will be completely eliminated!

The refined salt in Hanzhong only costs 50 cents per dou, and with its fineness and quality, who would buy your private salt?

Is it cheaper than the one in Hanzhong?

Is the quality better than that of Hanzhong?

If you don’t have any, then just wait for it to fall into your hands!

"When did this King of Han even have the ability to make refined salt?"

Feng Sheng was puzzled.

"What's the point of saying this now?"

"I heard that the superiors also agreed to the salt tax law of % of the tax. Although the civil servants complained a lot, the superiors Qiankun still made the decision!"

"Ten taxes and one tax!"

"The imperial treasury will no longer have to worry about running out of money!"

Chang Sheng couldn't help but sigh.

"Of course the civil servants have complaints. Their losses are more serious than ours!"

"The guys from the Ministry of Housing and Industry are still thinking about how to get this salt-making formula!"

"It's just nonsense!"

Lan Yu snorted disapprovingly.

Hearing this, a group of Huaixi nobles nodded in agreement.

They all knew that this method of making salt could only belong to Lao Zhu's family, not the imperial court!

Lao Zhu's family and the imperial court are two completely different concepts!

It is estimated that Zhu Yuanzhang prefers this method to be in the hands of the descendants of the Zhu family, rather than in the hands of the six ministers!

"Then, can we also get involved in the matter of Hanzhong refined salt?"

Fu Youde suddenly asked at this time.

Upon hearing this, the other nobles immediately became energetic!

Lan Yu and Chang Sheng looked at each other and fell silent.

If they want to get involved in the Hanzhong refined salt business, there is no way they can get around the hurdle of King Zhu Yue of Han!

……

Inside the palace.

After Zhu Biao left the imperial study, Zhu Yuanzhang began to handle state affairs alone!

Ever since Zhu Biao had been idle, all matters in the court, big and small, had fallen on his head, Zhu Yuanzhang!

It was not until night that Zhu Yuanzhang stopped what he was doing and returned to his dormitory.

Lying on the dragon bed, looking at the national fortune value among the auspiciousness of the national fortune, Zhu Yuanzhang began to think wildly again!
