Back to Daqin to be Emperor

Chapter 347

Tian Qi, who was originally elated at the side, suddenly became extremely ugly, and collapsed on the ground.

Gao Chong saw it, but with a smile on his face, he came to Tian Qi and said, "What is the rich man Tian doing?"

Dragging Tian Qi up, Gao Chong brought the jade pendant to Tian Qi from the table and asked, "Is this a family heirloom of your family?"

Tian Qi shook his head in shock.

Seeing that the situation was under control, Fusu nodded slightly in his heart. Seeing Gao Chong's playfulness at this time, he said: "Gao Chong, immediately put all these people in prison and wait for their disposal."

"No." After receiving Fusu's order, Gao Chong immediately became serious.

"Lieutenant, I need to trouble you to make another trip to seal up all of Tian Qi's mansions and bring back his criminal evidence." Fu Su instructed Dong Yi again.

"No." Dong Yi immediately took the order and led a team of people into action.

Fusu came to the back hall and saw the gold and silver piled in the boxes in the bedroom. Way, not much is justified anymore!
As night fell, Fusu began to look through the account books that Dong Yi had retrieved from Tian Qi's house, benefiting from the fact that mathematics had not been developed much at this time.

Even if it is a linear equation in two variables like the chicken and the rabbit in the same cage that appear in elementary school textbooks, at this time, only the top scholars in the world know how to calculate, and the calculation method is very cumbersome and complicated.

As for the skill of making false accounts, not many people know it, and it is precisely because of this that Chen Ping just checked the accounts, and discovered the tricks in the warehouse, and found out the big mouse.

For the account book recorded by Tian Qi, Fu Su flipped through it a little bit, and he was sure that there was a behind-the-scenes man behind Tian Qi.

Most of the money Tian Qi earned eventually flowed into the hands of this black hand behind the scenes, and this black hand behind the scenes relied on its huge financial resources to control an indispensable commodity like salt, which can be said to be unscrupulous.

"The royal family of Qi..." Fusu sneered twice, speaking of it, the Qin State was able to swallow up the world in one fell swoop, and the Qi State really contributed a lot.

Among the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period, Qi State ranked at the top relying on the benefits of fish and salt. Among the vassal states, it was the richest country. However, with Su and Qin Jianqi, the Five Kingdoms attacked Qi, and Qi State fell into a slump.

Afterwards, although his strength recovered slightly, he no longer had the intention to participate in the power struggles among the nations, and with Qin sweeping across the world, the footsteps of annihilating the six nations began.

Qi State was like an outsider from the beginning to the end, without any action, just sat and watched the countries perish one after another, and Qi State directly surrendered in the end.

It's just that this is in exchange for the retention of the Qi royal family. In addition to the Qi king and the Qi royal family who were relocated to Xianyang, there are many nobles from the original Qi state in this Qi land.

Once there is a vacuum in power, someone will naturally fill it up. The fat that was controlled by the Qi royal family is now unattended, and someone will stand up to take over it.

Fusu thought about it for a while, and then began to write profusely on several pieces of paper. There were pictures among them, and there were corresponding annotations on the pictures.

Fusu's paintings are naturally the method of drying salt in sea water. As long as he has salt in his hand, Fusu is not afraid of any moths coming out of this black hand behind the scenes.

With salt, the hearts of the people will be stable. Fusu also knows that now is not the time to mobilize these people. Only after the sea salt method has achieved initial results, then is the right time to do so.

Fusu can even use this to fight a price war, forcing those behind the scenes to jump out.You must know that the way to obtain salt at this time is still relatively rough, but through manual cooking of brine.

The salt obtained by this method not only consumes a lot of manpower and resources, but also the quality of the obtained salt is not very high. If you want to further obtain finer salt, you need to go through further refining.

The sea salt method has no such disadvantages at all, and the quality of the salt obtained is much higher, but Fusu is also not sure about this method.

Although Fusu knew the principle and how to operate it, but after all, Fusu had never done it in actual operation, so he didn't have much confidence in his heart.

Including the so-called gunpowder, it's not that Fusu doesn't want to do it, but that Fusu only knows the principle, but has never started to operate it. Even in the modern society of later generations, gunpowder is also a controlled item.

Even if it can be done, the danger is extremely high. Moreover, the gunpowder obtained with different ratios is also different, and the power it has is also completely different. The knowledge involved is not as simple as simply knowing the ratio.

Even if gunpowder is obtained, how to use it is also a huge problem. Fusu has no idea how much gunpowder to put in the container.

And the noise caused by these experiments is probably not small!At that time, Fusu might become the target of public criticism again.

Therefore, a plan to manufacture gunpowder was completely shelved by Fusu!
As for the sea salt method, although it is much simpler than making gunpowder, and the technical content has dropped by more than one level, it is not easy to realize it.

Fusu also planned to send more people to open up a few salt fields at the same time, experiment together, and then get the best plan from them.

This is also a stupid way!
In the early morning, Fusu gave all this set of methods to Ziyu. When he came, Fusu already had plans for the method of sun-drying salt in sea water. Things go on.

However, now it seems that time is even more urgent!
Therefore, it was well prepared, and with Mo Chu's death, Ziyu, as a new generation of Mohist inheritor, undoubtedly took on this important task.

Fusu also asked Ziyu to take away most of the salt seized from Tianqi's shop, which was also one of the steps involved in the sea salt drying method.

In order to speed up the precipitation of table salt, it is necessary to increase the concentration of seawater salt. Therefore, it is necessary to sprinkle salt into the water to achieve such a purpose.

And these rough table salts are just right for playing such a role.

Fusu then came to the prison cell, seeing Gao Chong there, Fusu asked casually: "Have you recruited?"

Gao Chong shook his head, he could feel the fear in Tian Qi's eyes, but, no matter what, Tian Qi didn't say a word, which made him quite annoyed.

Fusu thought for a while, and then whispered a few words in Gao Chong's ear. Hearing this, Gao Chong's eyes suddenly showed excitement, and he smiled and prepared to do what Fusu ordered.
