"Longyou nobles guard caravan" or something.

Clear-eyed people know at a glance that it is just a cover to cover up their identity.

The place on Longyou that can be called a noble man is nothing more than a few rough men like cattle in the army.

Li Da is confident that the iron-clad cattle under his command will never dare to hide their fat and private interests when they get the method of salt making, so it is pure nonsense to say that "noble people and personal guards" are pure nonsense.

And these people were able to transport a large amount of salt again in just a few days, obviously not back and forth between Shandong and Guanzhong.

Either there are still a large number of people waiting somewhere, waiting for this small group of people to come to Chang'an with a small amount of salt coins to ask for directions, to find out the price of salt and the sales of this kind of salt coins, and then sell them on a large scale.

Either simply found a salt source somewhere in Guanzhong, not far from Chang'an, and after making salt for the first time to sell it and tasting the sweetness, he went back and made a lot of salt for profit, which was the second time he entered Chang'an to sell salt.

Moreover, these "noble guards" who sell salt use salt as money to buy them every time.

They are all essential materials such as grain, livestock, poultry, spices, iron, and various medicinal materials, which are only a large amount in addition to being extremely complex.

Obviously, this is not for the purpose of traveling long distances to be trafficked to Longyou for profit...... Who has ever heard of trafficking cattle, horses, donkeys, mules, and other livestock from Chang'an to Longyou, which was surrounded by Tuyuhun and the Turks? Isn't this the same as the joke in later generations, about transporting coal from Pingdingshan to Shanxi and selling it?

Therefore, Li Dada, the supreme leader of the Tang Empire, who is wise and martial, concluded that the salt source and nest of this group of salt dealers must be near Chang'an!

According to the information from the inquiry, after this salt seller left Chang'an, it was indeed in the direction of Zhongnan Mountain in the Qinling Mountains, and he did not even cover up his tracks too much.

This shows that the other party is not very taboo about revealing his identity, and the reason why he is under the guise of "noble personal guards" is nothing more than to avoid trouble.

And the other party's seemingly undisguised behavior is also the reason why many powerful people in Chang'an City dare not rashly send people to keep an eye on them, because everyone wants to go together.

That is the salt coin sold by this salt seller, I am afraid that it is not made by the Taoist sect in the mountains to refine the secret method, and it is used to exchange for grain and straw materials to enrich the temple.

Today, Li Tang Chongdao, Taoism is powerful, and it is not something that any family of powerful people can afford to provoke.

But the powerful can't afford to provoke, it doesn't mean that Li Dada can't afford to provoke, sneered, used force between his fingers, pinched and smashed a so-called "Da Luo Yubao", put his fingers in his mouth and sighed, and nodded.

The status of Taoism was raised by his Li family, who dared not to give him the face of the Tang Emperor?

The only thing that has any scruples is that this kind of salt coin from Zhongnan Mountain is not related to the purple fire auspicious rui some time ago?

Otherwise, how could it be so coincidental, just out of auspiciousness in the Zhongnan Mountain here, this kind of salt coin carved with "Da Luo Tianque" immediately appeared?

However, this kind of "Da Luo Yubao" is indeed pure, salty and delicious, and the following will be collected from the market to present a lot of this kind of salt coins.

After being tested by the palace department as non-toxic, because it was really delicate and delicious, Li Dada couldn't help but use it as a reward and distribute it to everyone in the palace.

Even he, the emperor, is very fond of this exquisite "Da Luo Jade Treasure", and it is no wonder that it will be popular in Chang'an City and is highly sought after by the powerful.

It really looks delicate and beautiful, tastes salty and fresh, and is extremely convenient and quick to use...... The weight of this thing is precisely scary, saying that a hundred pieces are a combination, that is, a hundred pieces are a combination, and it is not bad at all!

In addition, the value is directly linked to the price of salt in the market, and the exchange price of four different quality salt coins of "jade, green, red and ink" is very clear, which is very convenient for those who suffer from the heavy copper money and cloth and are inconvenient to carry.

Only one jade treasure is worth a lot, which is much more convenient than carrying a string of copper coins weighing seven or eight catties and pressing the back pain, so that among the powerful, it has been fried to 14500 yuan and is still in short supply.

I don't know which master can refine such exquisite salt coins without being too cumbersome?

The dozens of stone salt crystals that were shipped before were equivalent to more than 3 million salt coins, which not only slightly alleviated the dilemma of no salt in the market, but also greatly facilitated the trading in the market.

This kind of salt coin, which is obviously imitating the Kaiyuan Tongbao, has actually violated the Tang law that it is not allowed to mint coins privately, once he is called to find out...... Naturally, there is no stingy reward!

His Majesty the Emperor is also very helpless, the Tang Dynasty implements both money and silk, stipulating that those who have more than ten yuan in transaction prices must be paid with cloth, but the common people use more cloth and silk, so that there are fewer coins, and there is a saying that "I don't know money".

This is all because the minting of coins is difficult and the cost is extremely high, and the amount of coins that can flow into the people is far from enough for the common people.

In addition, even if the Kaiyuan Tongbao was minted from the Wude period, the value of the currency has always been turbulent due to the chaos of the current situation, and the people's trust in the coin is insufficient.

The common people would rather barter with silk cloth, millet and other preserved items of value, rather than hold copper coins that are worthless at some point.

Therefore, salt coins not only have the characteristics of silk silk, grain and other value preservers, but also have the characteristics of coin exchange and circulation, and they themselves are the necessities of the people's life, and the measurement is still very accurate "currency" appeared in the market, and was immediately welcomed by the general public.

Especially in the current state of salt shortage, the people who have obtained the salt coin are the least poor and can still eat this salt coin as salt, and they will not lose anything.

Therefore, the appearance of "Da Luo Yanbao" seems to have violated the Tang law that it is forbidden to mint coins privately, and threatens the authority of the imperial court.

But in fact, it did not hoard and raise prices, but just went with the market.

Second, there were no private coins, they were only used as salt to "barter", and the measurement accuracy was only for the convenience of buying and selling...... Tang Lu didn't stipulate that salt blocks can't be made too consistent in size, and they can't be made into the shape of coins, right?

The salt dealers did not violate any Tang law, but also alleviated the salt shortage and facilitated the private trade, so why should they be held accountable?

Therefore, His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty can only pinch his nose and admit the behavior of these salt dealers "using salt to make money", and in order to alleviate the salt shortage, he has to praise them and encourage them to sell salt to save the city!

To tell the truth, Li Dada felt a throbbing pain in the kidneys of these salt dealers selling salt and making it so well-made that it was difficult to imitate, did you have the kung fu to carve the salt crystals into salt coins, and make more salt to alleviate the salt shortage?

I didn't see that they were better made, so they sold them more expensive? What are these people trying to do?
