Zhenguan Han-in-law

Chapter 79

When Changsun Wuji learned that Wei Hao made the salt, he didn't speak.

He now needs to wait and wait for the results of the Ministry of Industry to come out. At the same time, he also knows in his heart that if there is really no problem with this matter, then Wei Hao's status in Li Shimin's mind will be even higher.

"This idiot, he really made it. Not to mention poisonous or not, just this quality is not something that our Ministry of Industry can produce, and the output is also amazing!" Li Shimin said happily at the moment looking at the salt.

Fang Xuanling has been nodding by the side, Li Shimin is thinking at this moment, is this kid not bragging, he really has a solution to the problem of the court, is he really a genius?

"Your Majesty, if the table salt is successful, then in the next few years, the court should not be short of money, just for the salt, Wei Hao said that it can bring a million-dollar profit to the court! "Fang Xuanling said to Li Shimin.

"Well, if there is such a large output, it can't be sold at the current price. It is not easy for ordinary people to eat salt, and ordinary people are not willing to buy it. It is necessary to reduce the price. It cannot be said that this is used to make people's money. , then the Ministry of Civil Affairs will discuss a plan to control the price." Li Shimin thought about it and said to Fang Xuanling and the others.

"Your Majesty Shengming!" Fang Xuanling and the ministers heard it and stood up and cupped their hands.

"Well, have you mastered the method of mixing now?" Li Shimin said and looked at Fang Xuanling.

"This should be possible, right?" Fang Xuanling said a little uncertainly.

"What do you call a meeting, right? A meeting means yes, and no means no." Cheng Yaojin below shouted to Fang Xuanling.

"I haven't done it before, I just watched Wei Hao do it, but Wei Hao said, if you can't, you can go to him!" Fang Xuanling immediately explained to Li Shimin.

"That's not bad, this kid is really loyal to the court!" Li Shimin said with a smile.

On the other hand, Changsun Wuji was stunned for a moment. Isn't this a slap in the face?I just said a few days ago that Wei Hao was going to rebel, and now Li Shimin praises Wei Hao for being loyal.

"I'll leave this matter to you, this kid!" Li Shimin said while stroking his beard with a smile, but he felt a little unhappy in his heart.

What did Wei Hao mean? He asked him many times to solve the problem of lack of money in the court, but he didn't say it, but Fang Xuanling gave him such a big gift as soon as he passed by. Did he despise himself?

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Fang Xuanling hurriedly cupped his hands.

Then Li Shimin and the ministers continued to discuss the matter of sending supplies to the northwest border.

About half an hour later, Duan Lun, Minister of Industry, rushed over.

"Your Majesty, let me ask you first, where did this salt come from?" Duan Lun asked Li Shimin after entering the courtroom.

"Well, is there a problem with this salt?" Li Shimin hurriedly said when he heard him ask.

"No problem, and, very good, I have never seen such fine salt. In addition, this salt is not poisonous. The Ministry of Industry has tested it, and it is very good. I don't know how much safer it is than the table salt we use now.

Now I just want to know, who made this salt?The minister will personally visit the door and ask him to contribute this technology to benefit the people of the world. Duan Lun said to Li Shimin very excitedly.

"Haha, Duan Aiqing, don't get excited, sit down and talk, sit down and talk." Li Shimin said to Duan Lun with a smile when he heard Duan Lun's words.

"Your Majesty, I can't wait. By the way, Fang Pushe, I heard that you sent someone to bring it here, right? You made it?" Duan Lun looked at Fang Xuanling as he spoke.

"No, but Duan Shangshu, don't worry, the technology of this salt is now in the courtroom." Fang Xuanling said to Duan Lun with a smile.

"This?" Duan Lun was a little skeptical when he heard it. If it was from the court, then it must have been made by the Ministry of Industry, but he didn't know about such a big thing?

"Well, Fang Aiqing, you'd better tell Duan Aiqing the matter. For the Ministry of Industry, this matter is a big deal!" Li Shimin said to Fang Xuanling with a smile, Fang Xuanling nodded with a smile, and put the matter away Tell Duan Lun.

"No, no, this minister is going to find Wei Hao. Our Ministry of Industry must control this technology. We can burn so much in one pot. By then, the people of the Tang Dynasty will not be short of salt." Duan Lun Very excited to say to Li Shimin.

"Hey, don't worry, since Wei Hao told Fang Aiqing about this technology, then it must be from the Ministry of Industry, um, but Wei Hao's move is due to my Tang Dynasty, but it needs to be rewarded, everyone. Do you have any suggestions?" Li Shimin persuaded Duan Lun with a smile, then looked at the ministers and asked.

"Your Majesty, as far as this credit is concerned, I will reward a duke. Now our soldiers on the front line use coarse salt." Cheng Yaojin stood up first and said.

For Wei Hao, he still has a good impression of Wei Hao, mainly because of Wei Hao's temper and his approach.

"This minister also thinks so. Although Wei Hao is young, he has made a lot of contributions to the court and should be rewarded!" Li Jing stroked his beard and said.

Now he is even more convinced that he has to find a way to turn Wei Hao into his son-in-law. His daughter has not yet been engaged, and now it is difficult to find someone who praises his daughter for her beauty, and also says that he will come to propose marriage. This marriage can't be let go.

"Your Majesty, this minister does not agree. Wei Hao is a man of bad deeds. He is frivolous. The public is afraid that it will arouse the dissatisfaction of other heroes.

Most of the current princes have gone through turbulent times and made great contributions to the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, and Wei Hao, an uncrowned boy, won the title of prince with just a single salt. Are they chilling? "At this moment, Zhangsun Wuji stood up and said to Li Shimin.

When the other ministers heard it, they all looked at him. They knew how important salt was. They also believed that Zhangsun Wuji knew that he had made such a big contribution to the Duke of the Kingdom. Wuji said so.

"Qi Guogong, this is a bad statement. Although Wei Hao is young, and he was absurd before, but he is a fool, and he is still young. It is not surprising that he has such behavior. , not only can solve the problem of people all over the world eating salt, but also allow the court to have an additional income to make up for the expenses of the court, this income will continue forever, it can be said that it is worth thousands of dollars, and you can be a prince of the state!" Fang Xuanling was a little unhappy when he heard what the eldest grandson Wuji said, and didn't know why he attacked a teenager like this.

"Your Majesty, this minister still disapproves of it. When he is so young, he will not know how mad he will be. His meaning is to give some items to show that God's grace is enough!" Zhangsun Wuji still stood there and insisted.

Li Shimin heard it above, but did not speak.

"I said Qi Guogong, you are wrong, this kid is crazy, but he is still a reasonable person. If you don't provoke him, how can he conflict with you for no reason? Besides, just like Fang What Pushe said, this move is beneficial to the thousands of people in the Tang Dynasty, and it should be rewarded!" Cheng Yaojin stood up, looked at the eldest grandson Wuji and said.

"The minister also thinks that the reward should be given, but Duke Feng Guo can't do it. It's okay to reward items as a reward!" Zhangsun Wuji said again.

"Doesn't that seem like His Majesty is merciless? There is no distinction between rewards and punishments?" Li Jing said while rubbing his beard.

He hoped that Wei Hao's title would be as high as possible. In this case, his daughter would have a face when she married, wouldn't she?

"Okay, let's see, this kid really likes to cause trouble, how about rewarding a marquis?" Li Shimin thought about it, this kid is in a high position at such a young age, if he is hated by others, he will be in trouble. It's okay to bother this kid. He doesn't speak through his brain. It's okay to reward a marquis, but if you don't reward it, that's not okay. He still made great contributions to the court, and he is also a person Li Zhi likes.

"Is this a little lighter?" Fang Xuanling looked at Li Shimin and said.

"Let's do it, wait for the minister to draw up the decree, and then go to Wei Hao's house to announce the decree in the afternoon!" Li Shimin waved his hand and said to them.

"Your Majesty, Wei Hao is still in the cell, should he be released?" Fang Xuanling immediately asked.

"Don't let it go, just lock it up like this, let's talk about it for a few days. I have to warn this kid not to fight. Look, this kid has been to the prison several times in the past few months. It's ridiculous!" Li Shimin said with a very firm attitude. on.

In fact, Li Shimin is mainly for those generals to see. After all, Wei Hao had a conflict with their son, and he also needs to make a statement. I hope those generals will not pursue this matter.

"Yes!" Fang Xuanling immediately cupped his hands and said.

At the moment, Changsun Wuji sat down a little disappointed, knowing that there was no way to stop Wei Hao from being named a marquis, but it was not bad if he didn't have a prince.

After the court, Fang Xuanling began to prepare the imperial decree. When it was ready, Li Shimin put a big seal on it, and Shang Shusheng sent it to the Ministry of Rites. The matter of issuing the imperial decree was handled by the Ministry of Rites. .

And now it's almost noon, Wei Furong is still staring at the restaurant, there is no way, the restaurant is full of high-class guests, Wei Furong has not found anyone who is completely at ease, so he can only go in person, for fear of offending the guests. .

"Master, master, hurry, go back, hurry back!" At this moment, outside the restaurant, a steward of Wei's residence rushed over and said to Wei Furong.
