After the promulgation of this decree, it immediately aroused fierce reactions from a large number of salt dealers, especially the dissatisfaction of Linjia Village, which made a fortune by making and selling salt.

The brothers' workshop was completely confiscated, and the villagers in Linjia Village lost their source of income. As the saying goes, it is easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but it is difficult to go from extravagant to frugal. Seeing that the money they have saved is shrinking day by day, how can they be willing? ?
The village head, Mazi and others came to the Kyushu Bieyuan with blood letters written by the villagers, and asked for help from the God of War General Bai Zhancheng, hoping that he could give them a hand.

Bai Zhancheng looked at the bloody book in his hand with distressed expression, feeling even more depressed to death!
The return of salt and sugar to the imperial court is actually a great thing for the common people. The prices of sugar and salt will no longer fluctuate greatly due to some human factors, so that the common people can live in peace.

Furthermore, several neighboring countries also need these people's livelihood, especially salt. Which country dares to send troops to the Great Xia Dynasty, it will directly increase the price of salt, disrupt the business of neighboring countries, and thus stimulate their internal conflicts. But it doesn't take a single soldier to win without a fight.

How can Bai Zhancheng persuade the new emperor to revoke such a good decree that kills two birds with one stone?

If you have to say that there is something wrong with this decree, it is nothing more than being too unkind!

After all, the refining of table salt is a method that Lin Xiao came up with, and it will be carried forward by Lin Family Village.

Now they confiscated the brothers' workshops without saying a word, leaving no room for them. Isn't this clearly eating other people's food and smashing other people's pots!
"In any case, we should leave some food for the villagers of Lin Family Village!"

Li Yuyan was silent for a while, then suddenly sighed and said.

Bai Zhancheng also nodded, and said: "It should be like this, but the new emperor gave this matter to Wang Tuo, an old fox. In order to make money from it, he replaced all the workers with his own people!"

"Have you found any evidence that he fished for money?"

Li Yuyan's gaze suddenly froze.

"No, there is no clue at all. This old fox is clean of what he picked! However, I heard that that guy has recently purchased several properties in the capital, but all these properties are recorded in Zhao Qian's name! "

Bai Zhancheng's expression was very solemn, he firmly believed that Wang Tuo made a lot of money through the brother's workshop!

It won't be long before Wang Tuo can earn back all the property confiscated to show his loyalty!

"Zhao Qian?"

Li Yuyan frowned, and said with a sneer, "My nephew is like a son, this old man is really assured of his nephew!"

Bai Zhancheng nodded slightly, and said, "I have experienced Zhao Qian's methods before, we have to make plans early!"

Li Yuyan's expression became more and more serious, he pondered for a moment, then looked up at Bai Zhancheng:
"Now that Zhao Qian is a big celebrity in front of Wang Tuo, if we can't move Wang Tuo, can't we move a little Zhao Qian?"

"what do you mean?"

Bai Zhancheng's eyes lit up, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"You have dealt with him, you should know his weakness?"

Li Yuyan's eyes were deep, revealing a taste of conspiracy.

"Well, Zhao Qian has a weakness, it's just"

Bai Zhancheng looked at Li Yuyan in embarrassment, as if there was something unspeakable.

"Speak straight!"

Li Yuyan frowned, and gave Bai Zhancheng a displeased look.

"Then I told you, don't get angry."

"Old Bai, I found out why you have become such a mother-in-law since you got married?"

Li Yuyan urged with some annoyance.

"Zhao Qian likes Lin Xiao!"

"what?!"

Li Yuyan stood up in surprise, his eyes full of astonishment.

"I also learned about it from my wife. I've been thinking about whether to tell you."

Bai Zhancheng smiled wryly. He didn't want to tell Li Yuyan at first, but when he got to this point, he could only tell the truth.

"So that's the case, no wonder."

Li Yuyan murmured softly, but there was an unpredictable light in his eyes.

"are you OK?"

Seeing what Li Yuyan thought of, Bai Zhancheng asked worriedly with a strange expression on his face.

"Since he likes Ah Xiao, then let him... save his life!"

Li Yuyan snorted coldly, a cold murderous intent flashed in his eyes:
"A Xiao once told me that if you have the conditions, you have to create the conditions if you don't have the conditions! Since you can't find evidence of their corruption, then create evidence. In short, I want them to die!"

Speaking of this, Li Yuyan's eyes shot two frightening cold lights!
When Bai Zhancheng saw this, he couldn't help shivering. He suddenly felt that his former good brother had become strange overnight.

He still remembered that when he first met Li Yuyan, Li Yuyan always had a gentle and polite appearance, but now, he has completely forgotten that elegant image at the beginning, and has become cold-blooded and brutal, as if he chose to eat someone. beast.

The prosperity of the capital is still there, and there is no turmoil due to the change of the new emperor. On the contrary, under the influence of the new policy, the people in the capital are living more prosperously than before.

In the garden of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Wang Tuo was lying comfortably on a rocking chair drinking tea and enjoying the sun.

"Uncle, the acre of fertile land in the west of the city has been taken, and the land in the eastern suburbs is already in our pocket. Do we want to...?"

Standing beside Wang Tuo was a young man in official uniform, who was Wang Tuo's nephew, Zhao Qian!

"There's been a lot of noise recently, so it's better to keep a low profile!"

Wang Tuo closed his eyes and said slowly.

Zhao Qian nodded quickly, and said: "What uncle said is that my nephew thought badly, please punish me!"

"Where did Yao'er go? Why haven't I seen her all day?"

Wang Tuo opened his eyes, and there was a trace of doubt in his eyes.

"Yao'er went to a temple in the suburbs to burn incense. She was afraid that you might worry, so she specifically asked me not to let you know!"

Zhao Qian's expression looked a little embarrassed.

"This girl just loves to mess around!"

Wang Tuo shook his head, but there was a doting look on his face:
"Qian'er, you went to the suburbs to pick her up, what does it look like to run to the temple every day in a good manner!"

Zhao Qian respectfully agreed and withdrew.

After Zhao Qian left, Wang Tuo's complexion immediately sank. He looked into the distance with deep eyes, and a complex light flashed in his eyes.
