Houmen's concubine

Chapter 183 Sea Salt Production Increase
Wang Tong'er's little head was spinning rapidly, what words did she have to use to get the emperor to give herself a guarantee?
Oh, yes.

Emperor Mingzheng's identity was just Boss Xiao, a businessman from the capital. Since salt is so important, how could he say so easily?
"Well, Boss Xiao, these methods are too important. I'd like to ask Mr. Xiao to recommend them. Stay here and tell Prince Pingqing personally. If he believes what I said, then ask him to present it to the emperor. Mr. Xiao, you See if it works?"

"what?"

Emperor Mingzheng and Xie Yuheng didn't expect Wang Tong'er to betray him, and the two big brothers were stunned for a moment.

Before thinking about it, she said all her ideas without hesitation.

Like weapons, thinking of weapons, Xie Yuheng couldn't help admiring the few weapons Wang Tonger gave.

The weapons have been forged from Ganzhou and quietly transported to Governor Ning's mansion outside the city.

Governor Ning's soldiers, under the personal guidance of Xie Yuheng, after training, found that it is very practical and has super combat effectiveness.

From this point of view, his little girl is really a little koi.

She can pick out a few weapons from so many weapons in the weapon spectrum, which are the artifacts against pirates.

If the little girl wasn't possessed by a koi, how could she explain it?

When Emperor Ming Zheng thought of her proposal to set up a tax department in the customs, he was very far-sighted.

It must have been read from some ancient book, and then integrated into it through her thoughts.

Otherwise, it can't explain that she is young, no matter how smart her brain is, it is impossible to establish customs revenue and establish a maritime army?

Don't say it's her, even if she is an important minister of the court, she doesn't have such wisdom, think of these things for the benefit of the court!

Therefore, Emperor Mingzheng absolutely believed that she knew the way to increase sea salt production.

In addition, these days I get along with her in the same yard, and I know that she is not only handsome and kind, but also very smart in her ideas!
Ever since Emperor Mingzheng knew that Young Master Qin was a woman, he sighed silently in his heart more than once, feeling sorry for her and himself at the same time.It's a pity that the imperial court lost such an eye-catching, intelligent and outstanding pillar of the country!
At this time, Emperor Mingzheng couldn't help but secretly discuss: This is not something that ordinary girls can think of, Xie Aiqing admits the wrong person!

In the corner of Emperor Ming Zheng's heart, seeds of doubt still grew: Is this person Xie Yuheng's concubine?
Because there are too many coincidences in the world, and also, she actually has an Adam's apple in her neck!

However, even if she doesn't have a prescription that can increase sea salt production, I still want to reward her.

In other words, if the establishment of maritime taxation is actually implemented, it will benefit the court without any disadvantages.

The advantages of building a maritime army also outweigh the disadvantages.

For example, when the first emperor was alive, it was because the Qi State sent troops from the sea and attacked the Zhou Dynasty army by surprise. They were defeated and suffered heavy casualties.

Thinking of this, Emperor Mingzheng made up his mind that once he returned to the capital, the first thing he would do was to establish a naval army, in her words, to establish a navy.

No, it is the sea army and the sea taxation carried out at the same time.

The impatient Emperor Mingzheng wished he could do nothing at this moment, and he couldn't help but glance at Xie Yuheng whose eyes grew on Young Master Qin's body.

On the way back to Beijing, let him draw up a feasible charter based on Young Master Qin's plan.It is best to recommend it even to the officials who took office.

However, those who contribute good ideas still need to be rewarded.

Hearing what Wang Tonger said, Emperor Mingzheng thought, that's fine. When I return to Beijing in two days, I will inform her of her identity, and let her tell me how to increase sea salt production.

Although Emperor Mingzheng wished he could get this method at this moment to increase the production of Haiyan instantly.

It's just that no matter how anxious you are, you can't rush at this moment.

So, he said: "Okay, I will pass it on to the young prince of Pingqing Palace, and then you can tell him. Besides, I will let him pass on your previous recommendations to the Holy Majesty to reward you."

what?
What do you mean?
You won't shoot yourself in the foot with a stone, will you?

The emperor's words were too insincere.

All right, just pretend.

However, it is impossible for this young master to go back to Beijing with you to find that Prince Pingqing.

This young master is not a fool, and following you back to the capital, isn't it just like a sheep entering the tiger's mouth, which is exactly what Xie Yuheng wants?

Xie Yuheng looked at the little girl in front of her, after hearing Ming Zhengdi's words, she opened her big round eyes in disbelief, and immediately lowered her eyes.

The little girl's fleeting eyes can be described as colorful and full of mixed flavors!
This night, Xie Yuheng rarely slept comfortably.

Wang Tong'er lay on the bed but tossed and turned like a pancake and couldn't sleep. She was afraid in her heart. She offered these advanced recommendations to the emperor. Don't let the emperor "click" herself as a different kind!

So, early the next morning, I successfully removed the dark circles under my eyes.

······
Since Emperor Mingzheng ascended the throne, this year can be described as a bumper harvest.

First, Xie Yuheng went to Ganzhou, not only to punish corrupt officials.The profiteers were investigated and dealt with, and the money they obtained by corrupting the law was confiscated and confiscated into the state treasury.

This time, the money copied by Zhu Yanshen's family alone is estimated to be about the same as the sum of Ji Xiao's households in Wu Zhifu, Ganzhou.

The money in the treasury is increasing again...
It can be seen that the profit of salt smuggling in ancient times is almost the same as that of drug trafficking in modern times, both of which are profiteering.

It's no wonder that some people took the risk of ransacking their homes and beheading them.

Thinking that Zhu Yanshen would not be a good salt merchant, he would have to make a living by breaking the law and discipline, earning money but not enjoying it.

Because the production of salt in ancient times was carried out by the private sector, the government uniformly purchased it and then sold it abroad.

Among them, salt merchants came into being, and Zhu Yanshen was the largest salt merchant in the field of official salt.

As the saying goes: the sky is high and the emperor is far away, the county magistrate is not as good as the present.

No matter how tight you manage it, there will always be loopholes.

The quick-witted Zhu Yanshen took advantage of this loophole to steal [-] to [-] percent of the sea salt produced by the salt people and sold it for himself.

It's just that Emperor Mingzheng couldn't imagine what was going on in Zhu Yanshen's mind?

He actually secretly transported private salt out of the waterway and sold it to Qi State, which is more than 2000 miles away from Qinzhou.

Then, the merchants of Qi State added the profit and sold it back to the Great Zhou Dynasty.

From Zhu Yanshen's operation, it can be seen that he is bold and ignorant of the poor poor people, making the salt on the market more and more expensive, and ordinary poor people can't afford salt.

It also shows his cunning side.

He secretly sold private salt to other countries, and it is difficult for the general government to find out.

If you sell to private salt dealers in your own country, as long as you are caught by the government, you will soon find him by following the clues.

It also shows that under the monopoly of the government, there are endless incidents of salt making criminals take risks for huge profits, and there will never be such a situation.
