In Daqi, salt and iron were controlled by the imperial court, and daily necessities such as salt had to be bought and sold through the government. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

It is an offence to sell illicit salt without permission.

There are two main categories of salt in Daqi, one is sea salt, and the other is lake salt. Sea salt accounts for a large proportion.

The salt on the market in Daqi was basically supplied by the seaside salt farms controlled by the imperial court, and if the salt merchants wanted to participate in the sale, they had to obtain salt from the salt farms, which required certain social connections and financial strength.

Therefore, behind every big salt merchant is the shadow of a powerful person or an official eunuch, and the powerful are also involved in the salt business in disguise through salt merchants.

But there is one exception, and that is well salt!

In fact, there are also well salt for sale in the market in Daqi, but because the output is not high, and it is concentrated in the southwest mountainous area, and due to various factors such as transportation, well salt has not formed a scale in the market.

The share is small and the influence is small, and the court pays less attention.

In the southwest, many salt wells are privately owned, and the owners are basically Yi Tusi, Touren or local tyrants in the southwest.

It's not that the local government doesn't want to participate, but firstly, most of the salt wells are from the mountainous areas and are located in remote areas, and secondly, there is no good way to mine the salt wells.

After all, there is such a thing as Zhuo Tsutsujing, which has not yet appeared in Daqi, and it was Gu Jialuo who opened the plug-in and brought the products accumulated by the wisdom of the working people in later generations to Daqi.

Moreover, in all fairness, although Zhuo Tube Well is easy to use, and the output is still limited, it is not as much as sea salt or lake salt, and even if it is implemented, it is difficult to get huge economic benefits.

The imperial court or the local government may not take this idea into account.

But for a family or family, it is enough!

The Gugaro couple did not have high requirements, as long as the salt from the well was enough to supply the six parts of Wumeng.

Even if it can't cover the entire Yunnan region, it can finally stabilize the high price of official salt, so that ordinary people can eat salt.

"Okay, great,"

Gu Jialuo licked his fingers, then dipped some salt grains in his mouth and tasted them, "Hey, the quality is not bad, it's better than what is sold on the market in Wumeng." ”

Qi Jinzhi said with a smile: "That's natural, the craftsmen I invited this time are very experienced, and after boiling the salt, they are also filtered and purified, and the quality is naturally much stronger than those black-hearted merchants outside!" ”

Gu Jialuo bent the corners of his lips, and then asked again: "By the way, that piece of mountain and forest uncle has been-" Bought it?!"

Qi Jinzhi's smile deepened, and he said, "Don't worry, all the procedures are complete!" ”

How could he easily afford to bargain with others after his Aro had worked so hard to think about Zhuo Tsutsui (fog), after not receiving enough financial compensation.

The mountain forest containing the salt well naturally belonged to his own family, to be exact, to Gu Jialuo.

It's not that Qi Jinzhi is cautious, but he thinks that Zhuo Tuojing is Gu Jialuo's idea, and the money to buy mountains and forests is Gu Jialuo's private house.

That's right, don't look at Qi Jinzhi now that he is promoted, he really doesn't have much money in his hands.

Don't forget, the Qi family was copied by the saint at the beginning, regardless of whether Qi Lingxian secretly transferred the property in private, but on the surface, the Qi family was already poor and white.

Now the house in the capital is still the dowry of the county lord of Qinghe.

Moreover, Qi Jinzhi also has a little bit to think about.

In addition to his father Qi Lingxian's house, Xiqi also has a large family of his second uncle Qi Lingyi.

In addition, the Qi Qin brothers in Shuixi are not fuel-efficient lamps.

Don't look at how lively the toss is on the surface, but in the eyes of the world, they still have the same surname and worship the same ancestor.

In case the matter of well salt becomes the climate, and Zhuo Tuojing is leaked out, Qi Qinzhi and they will say that this is the inheritance left by the ancestors of the Qi family, and they will come to ask Qi Jinzhi to 'share', it will be another trouble!

Therefore, some things should be prepared in advance, and everything will be pushed on Gu Jialuo, even if there is trouble in the future, whether it is Qi Qinzhi or someone in the Qi family, it is not good to calculate the dowry of a daughter-in-law, right?!

Qi Jinzhi handed over the deed paper and the deeds of craftsmen, rough laborers and others to Gu Jialuo.

Gu Jialuo flipped through a few photos casually, the smile on his face gradually faded, and asked seriously: "Let's talk back to my father and mother about this matter." ”

They can guard against Qi Lingyi or Qi Qin's brother, but they can't even guard against their parents.

Although Qi Jinzhi is not the only son of his parents, he is the eldest son in the family and the future head of the family to support the court.

If everything is so calculated, it will inevitably seem too petty, too cold, and selfish!

Of course, Qi Jinzhi is not so stingy, the reason why he put everything under Gu Jialuo's name is mainly because Gu Jialuo came up with this idea, as a man, it already hurts his self-esteem that he can't support his family, and he can't do anything to occupy his wife's things for his family.

"When I write a letter, just tell my father and mother by the way. Zhuo Tsutsui is Ah Luo after all, you-"

Before Qi Jinzhi could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Gu Jialuo.

Gu Jialuo sighed, she also realized that Qi Jinzhi still cared a little about the matter of silver money.

"What are you and me, we are husband and wife, and we can even entrust our lives to each other, why should those mundane things be so clearly divided?"

Gu Jialuo took Qi Jinzhi's hand and said softly: "Even if you really want to distinguish clearly, it's okay, then I'll settle accounts with my uncle." First of all, how did this salt well come about? Did the uncle's subordinates find out? Secondly, if it weren't for the uncle in charge of Wumeng, even if I had Zhuo Tube Well, would I be able to mine well salt on the ground of Wumeng? Not to mention those craftsmen, rough servants, as well as follow-up guards, secrecy, sales and other affairs, it is even more necessary for the uncle to come forward to deal with it. ”

There has always been a problem that their husband and wife have not faced directly, and that is one word - money!

Since the two of them left the capital, to this day, all the money expenses are basically paid by Gu Jialuo. At least externally, that's what they claim (again, the Qi family has no money).

However, in fact, Gu Jialuo knew very well in his heart that some things could not be solved by money at all. For example, the guards and subordinates brought by the Qi family, then the personal position and influence of Qi Jinzhi, and then the secret power of the Qi family in the southwest and the miraculous firearms......

Without these, even Gu Jialuo's family would not be able to succeed.

To put it mildly, maybe when she is on the road, she will encounter robbers, but she will lose both her personal wealth!

These Gu Jialuo understand, and Qi Jinzhi also knows it in his heart.

But people outside don't know.

Whenever he comes into contact with the envious, jealous and hateful eyes of outsiders such as 'you are blessed, you have married a good wife with wealth, good looks and backing', Qi Jinzhi feels a little uncomfortable in his heart.

There are even more first-class people, seeing Qi Jinzhi's eyes are very strange, they almost pointed at his nose and scolded him for 'eating soft rice'.

Qi Jinzhi won't have the same knowledge as these people, and he won't have other thoughts because of them, but there are too many flies around him, and he is upset, isn't he?!

Sometimes a little thought comes to mind, thinking not to let Gu Jialuo 'sacrifice' too much!

Gu Jialuo knew that Qi Jinzhi was only a little uncomfortable in his heart, and he was far from reaching the level of anger, but this momentum must be contained, and she must also pay attention to proportion.

can't behave arrogantly and condescendingly in front of Qi Jinzhi because of temporary 'pay', and can't always talk about these things, otherwise, she and Qi Jinzhi will go farther and farther!

Gu Jialuo smiled proudly: "We can stay so stable and smooth in the southwest, thanks to the uncle's hard work outside." When Uncle sheltered me from the wind and rain, did I ever talk to you? Besides, what is the situation in our family, others don't know, don't you and I don't know? ”

It's not that the Qi family has no money, let alone no capital, but it can't be revealed.

The current Qi family is like a beggar with a mountain of gold, who has everything openly and secretly, but still pretends to be poor.

Until now, with the self-hanging of the eldest princess, the saint does not seem to be so resentful towards the Qi family, and Qi Lingxian's house is even more very careful, not only did not implicate Qi Lingxian, but also gave the original house of Dongqi to Xiqi.

Qi Lingxian still didn't dare to relax easily, and on the surface he still lived on his wife's dowry!

Qi Lingxian wanted to be like this, and Qi Jinzhi didn't dare to indulge. Although he is an official and has a lot of real power, there are clear regulations on what he does, if Qi Jinzhi suddenly comes out with property of unknown origin, even if the saint does not pursue the Qi family's hidden property, he must also hold Qi Jinzhi accountable for corruption and bribery!

…… Having said so much, there is only one conclusion, the Qi family's 'poor' still has to be pretended, unless there is a reasonable and legal explanation!

"That's what I said," Qi Jinzhi also smiled, what was wrong with him, he was actually struggling with these useless things.

It is estimated that he has been too idle recently, and he has the kung fu to think nonsense.

wiped his face and said in a cautious manner: "Okay, this matter is settled." Oh, and don't forget to give Master Myozhen a word. ”

This is the biggest backer of the couple, and no one can forget her old man.

Gu Jialuo smiled proudly, "I also need to say that when I wrote the letter, I talked about Zhuo Tuojing, and when I sent the 'Tuyi' to the master this time, I also sent some well salt to her old man to taste the umami." ”

Gu Jialuo still wanted to give half of the profits of Yanjing to the master, she was not afraid that the master would say that she was 'bribing' or something, she was just honoring her most respected elders.

"Arrow is still so thoughtful,"

Qi Jinzhi successfully harvested two of his wife's white eyes, and he didn't care, smiled, and continued: "By the way, there is one more thing, at present, spring ploughing is imminent, and the turmoil in Wumeng has been roughly pacified, but there are still small groups of rogues and rebels, I want to go around a few county towns on the pretext of presiding over spring ploughing." ”

Qi Jinzhi was the prefect of Wumeng, and his first priority was to promote production and develop the population, so as to increase taxes and obtain tangible political achievements.

Spring ploughing is the top priority of the year, and we must ensure that the people can carry out spring ploughing smoothly, and all unstable factors, all people and things that will crack the farming must be nipped in the bud.

“…… The uncle was the official of Wumeng's parents at the beginning, so he should go down for a walk. ”

Wumeng has been in chaos for so many years, it has long been full of devastation, and the people at the bottom are living in poverty, even if the Tartars are gone now, and a large number of mountain bandits and rebels have dispersed, there are still some bad forces oppressing.

In addition, there is an existence that cannot be bypassed, that is, the local tyrants and inferior gentry, which also need to be cleaned up and integrated.

If Qi Jinzhi wants to prove himself with political achievements, he must do his best to stabilize and develop Wumeng as soon as possible, so that this place will become a real royal paradise!

Gu Jialuo understood Qi Jinzhi's thoughts, but then he still told with concern: "Uncle must bring more manpower, oh, by the way, those Xiangyong have been training for many months, and they should also come in handy." ”

Qi Jinzhi smiled: "I also have this plan. The Yi people are still a little wary of us, but those villagers are different, they are all natives, and most of them are also Yi people who have returned from the mountains. There are some things that let the villagers come forward, and they can get twice the result with half the effort. ”

In this regard, Qi Jinzhi has always implemented the Qi family's ancestor 'to rule the raze' policy, as long as he controls the general direction, the specific affairs, whether the Han people to do it, or the Yi people to do it, really does not matter.

As long as everyone has a common goal, that is: to develop Wumeng and enrich Wumeng.

After Qi Jinzhi and Gu Jialuo discussed, they began to prepare for going to the countryside the next day.

entrusted all the affairs of the government to Mr. Ji and Master Zhou, and summoned the county commanders of several counties to come to the capital for a meeting.

Among the several county orders, Qi Jinzhi was only familiar with Meng Fu in Wusa County, and the others were not very familiar.

He was not familiar with people, but they heard his name like thunder, so in the public court, when Qi Jinzhi talked to several county officials, several people were respectful, and no one dared to offend or test the new chief official.

On the contrary, they all nodded their heads at Qi Jinzhi's orders, and they looked even more well-behaved and obedient than the children in the school!

Yes, Qi Jinzhi still wanted to take the opportunity to knock one or two, but people didn't give him a chance at all.

Regarding Qi Jinzhi's resolution to go to the countryside to personally supervise spring ploughing, no one in several county orders raised objections.

Very good, in the awe-inspiring eyes of the lower officials, the matter of going to the countryside was so happily decided!

The next step is to allocate farming cattle, farm tools and other matters to the next few counties, and sensitive issues such as water sources are also distributed.

Qi Jinzhi was assigned according to the scale book registered by the government, and those 'wastelands' and 'black households' that were not registered were not within the scope of the government's care.

Several county magistrates listened to Qi Jinzhi's arrangement, looked at each other, and exchanged glances with neighbors: Tsk, something is going to happen again, and this decision of the Mansion is tantamount to pinching the necks of those wealthy families and hidden households.

After this incident, Qi Jinzhi will definitely be able to precipitate many 'hidden fields'.

It's just that several people are a little worried, the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, and the head of Qi is notorious, but can he completely suppress those local tyrants who are used to running amok? !

If they remember correctly, the major families in Wumeng and Shuixi have a lot of hidden fields, and Qi Jinzhi's move will definitely set off a lot of storms......
