Spoiling my mistress and swallowing my dowry? After my rebirth, I changed my marriage to a powerful

Xie Zhaozhao invited Yin Jinan and Li Yunmu to go into the tea room together.

Manman brought the new tea and served.

"Xie Zhaozhao, our second batch of long-distance ships are back!"

"That's great. I thought I could only come back after the New Year. What did you bring back this time?"

Yin Jinan said proudly: "Last time we robbed a pirate ship and cooperated with another ship. The pirates on that ship said they would join us after returning home. It is more profitable and more stable than robbing goods. This time they got four more ships and took the initiative to join us."

Among the four ships, only one had a carrying capacity of more than 150,000 dan. Lao Liao and Liang Jianguo chose that big ship and rented it. They paid a deposit of 5,000 silver taels before departure, and then they were given another 20,000 taels of silver when they returned.

Both sides benefit.

"This is the best. Once they have tasted the sweetness, they will gradually accept this kind of rent-collecting life and will never risk their lives to rob again."

"This time, Lao Liao and his men went a little further and filled their boats in the Haixi Kingdom," Li Yunmu said. "Originally they wanted to get food, but Dongqin said that in times of natural disasters, using food to make money would bring endless trouble. In the end they got spices, horses, and a variety of rare items."

The horses brought in this time are different from those in the past. More than half of them are good at equestrian performances or horse racing.

There was also a boatload of war horses.

Their grand plan was moving forward step by step, and war horses were the most indispensable.

Yin Jinan said: "Those performance horses are sold to nobles. They like to play with them, and we make money."

The second time he went to sea, Xie Zhaozhao invested the two million taels that Emperor Hui had given him.

She did not tell Yin Jinan and Li Yunmu that it was Emperor Hui's money, she only said that it was the dividend from Lord Gu last time.

As the eldest daughter of the Xie family, she knew best the conflict between Emperor Hui and the Cheng'en Mansion (Wei family).

Emperor Hui supported her in opening up trade routes, and she had to give something in return.

She supported Emperor Hui, and then Emperor Hui continued to support her...

She wants revenge and to protect the Xie family, and Emperor Hui is the umbrella for her and Gu Shaoyu.

"Jin'an, except for the war horses, keep 30% of the other goods for me. I will use them."

Thirty percent of the goods were given to Emperor Hui.

Xie Zhaozhao said thoughtfully: "Isn't there a salt well in Shi'an City? Sell the salt to the court!"

"Really? The court can cooperate with us?"

"can!"

Yin Jinan said that the salt well was really good and the salt was of very high purity.

However, no matter how good the salt was, it was extremely difficult to get it into the imperial court.

Li Yunmu said directly: "Xie Zhaozhao, do you know who controls the salt in Daqian? It's the Cheng'en Mansion, and all the people in the salt field are his."

Yin Jinan just looked at Xie Zhaozhao: "Do you have a way?"

Xie Zhaozhao said that there was no way originally, but didn’t he have a minister in his family?

The three of them laughed.

Although private sales can earn more, the imperial court has always had clear regulations prohibiting private sales of salt.

If the imperial court came to settle accounts, you would become a pauper overnight after working hard for decades, and might even be beheaded and exiled.

Yin Jinan and Li Yunmu naturally agreed to sell the salt to the court openly.

There is not only this salt well in Shi'an City, but also salt wells in Damo Prefecture and Dongying Prefecture among the thirty-six northern provinces.

Being able to cooperate with the imperial court is an opportunity they could only obtain after being pigs for ten lifetimes.

(Xie Zhaozhao: not including me)

Yin Jinan asked, "Who will take the lead in discussing cooperation? Who will we discuss it with? Neither you nor I can come forward. The Wei family will never let others interfere in the salt business. If they come forward to discuss it, there will be no hope."

Xie Zhaozhao smiled and said, "Let's go talk to the Salt and Iron Bureau. No need to look for anyone else, just look for my second uncle Xie Anhuai, who is now the judge of the Salt and Iron Bureau."

"Oh, it's him. That's for sure! Xie Zhaozhao, you have figured it out, right?"

Xie Zhaozhao pursed her lips and smiled: "It's just a coincidence!"

Xie Zhaozhao used his second uncle as a thorn in his side, and it was mutually beneficial.

This is Game of Thrones.

This is another great thing that kills three birds with one stone -

Xie Zhaozhao and Yin Jinan don’t have to worry about the sales of salt, just wait to count the money!

Uncle Xie got the good salt which was cheap, of high purity and in stable supply. This alone could generate an untold amount of revenue for the court, and he would most likely be promoted.

Once this cooperation is established, Emperor Hui will be able to control the strategic material salt in his own hands, and the situation in which the Cheng'en Mansion controls the salt supply of the people of Daqian will be broken!

There is no useless person in the world. As long as you are placed in the right position, you can shine brightly. There is no useless experience in life. As long as you keep moving forward, the day will always come.

"Xie Zhaozhao, none of us can come forward to negotiate for the salt. Ask Ren Jialin to negotiate, the one who robbed Tu Qianyue in the wilderness." Yin Jinan said, "He is a wandering knight in the martial arts world, and he has many brothers in the martial arts world. He is a very righteous person."

"Have you checked this person's background?" Xie Zhaozhao asked.

"All his family members are dead. His martial arts skills are quite good, and his strategies are far beyond what a half-baked person like me can compare to. It's just that people in the martial arts world have some unknown stories. He didn't tell me, and I didn't ask."

"You can use it, but we have to explain it to him clearly," Xie Zhaozhao said, "We can't let him drag us into the vortex out of hatred."

"He won't." Yin Jin'an said, "Arrange him to contact Uncle Xie, and limit it to the business of the salt well. I will never tell anyone else, including you and Yunmu."

"Ren Jialin!"

Xie Zhaozhao pondered the name and nodded slightly. It was him!

This man, if she remembered correctly, was the hero who massacred the entire family of Cheng Engong on the day when the crown prince ascended the throne in her previous life. At that time, a line of blood was left on the wall: The murderer is Ren Jialin...

Yin Jinan was extremely happy and he felt more and more energetic.

Even if only 30% of the goods brought back from this voyage were used to pave the way, they could still earn tens of millions of strings of silver.

What's more, his salt wells have found the best and brightest market. How happy!

After the three of them had an agreement, Gu Shaoyu and Xie Zhaozhao sent Yin Jinan and Li Yunmu out of the house. As soon as they went out, they saw many people running out of the city in strange ways.

The snow stopped today, but there was still unmelted snow piled up everywhere in the capital. The snow water on the ground had frozen into a layer of ice, and people fell on their butts from time to time.

Yin Jinan asked Chengyu to bring the horse over. Looking at the people running around, he cursed, "Are they all going to grab the mourning hat?"

Cheng Yu smiled and said, "Second Master, let me tell you, the Crown Prince is coming back to the court today..."

He saw Gu Shaoyu and Xie Zhaozhao following him, and he shut up decisively.

Yin Jinan said impatiently: "Why are you looking after the Lord? Do you think the Lord and his wife will personally welcome the Crown Prince back to the court?"

Cheng Yu hurriedly shook her hand: "It's not about welcoming him... Master, it's alright, why don't we go and take a look?"

"Who said I'm fine? I'm not going!"

Li Yunmu saw Cheng Yu dodging, but his eyes were full of excitement, and said, "Let's go and take a look. This dog slave is dodging, so he must have something else to do, right?"

"Yes, yes, yes, Master Li is still smart!"

As Cheng Yu finished speaking, Yin Jin'an whipped him over with a whip: "What's the matter, you're calling me stupid?"

"How can that be possible? Master, let's go and take a look!"

He approached Yin Jinan and whispered a few words. Yin Jinan looked at him in disbelief. Cheng Yu nodded vigorously: "It's true. Many people say so. They don't dare to lie to me."

Yin Jinan and Li Yunmu got on their horses and said hello to Xie Zhaozhao: "Let's go."
