Chapter 304: The Matter of Salt Introduction

The next morning, everyone went to Zhao's courtyard in the morning province, saw that Zhao's mind was tired, and his face was unhappy, knowing that she was for yesterday's business, but in the second room, only Luo Wenyan came over with a few younger siblings in the morning, and the others were not good at mentioning the things in their room, so they only sat in Zhao's house for a while, and left. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The Zhao family was too lazy to deal with it, and they didn't keep them long.

Luo Qingran followed Ye's back to Jiyingtang, accompanied Ye's breakfast to dinner, and then went back to his yard.

As soon as she entered the house, she instructed Banxia, "Banxia, clean up, and ask Zhishu to invite Sister Du, saying that I will invite her to go out." ”

Banxia left in response, and came back after a short time to say that it was done.

Before Du Ruoren arrived, the voice came first, and she was heard laughing through the door: "You are now more and more able to use me as a disguise, you want to go out, but it is my business." ”

Luo Qingran pulled her over and took her hand affectionately, "Sister Du, you have been in retreat for some days, I am afraid that you will be trapped in the pharmacy all day long and panic, so I will find an excuse to go out with you, Qiubai wrote a batch of fresh objects, don't you want to go and see it?" ”

Du Ruo raised his eyebrows at her, "It's all right for you to take advantage of, I see that your mouth is getting sharper and sharper, it seems that who will dare to marry you in the future." ”

Luo Qingran was not afraid of her being so joking, so she immediately replied: "Sister Du doesn't marry, how can I go past you, when you become my aunt, it's not too late for me to find my mother-in-law!" ”

Du Ruo heard her ridicule herself like this, and immediately threatened to beat her, but Luo Qingran hurriedly pretended to beg for mercy before he gave up.

The two of them went all the way out of Luofu Mansion, got into the carriage, and went to Mu Qiubai's shop.

At this time, most of the shops on the street have already opened, and there is no shortage of traders and hawkers on both sides of the street, and it is very lively.

Du Ruo slightly opened the bamboo curtain hanging on the wall of the car and asked, "You don't really go to see those gadgets in Qiubaide, right?" ”

Luo Qingran smiled, "Can't you?" ”

Du Ruo put down the bamboo curtain and looked back at her, "Do you think I will believe it?" ”

"Yes." Luo Qingran smiled and nodded.

Du Ruo raised her eyebrows slightly, and didn't ask any more, anyway, she would naturally know when she got to the place.

About half an hour, the carriage stopped at the backyard gate of Mu Qiubai's shop, Mu Qiubai was standing at the gate of the courtyard with Mingli, and saw several of them smiling and welcoming each other in.

The group walked through the cobblestone path to the west wing under the corridor, Mu Qiubai instructed Mingli to serve tea, and beckoned them to sit in.

Several people knew each other well and did not follow the rules, so they went in and sat together.

After the tea ceremony was served, a few people talked about business.

"Miss Luo," Mu Qiubai took the lead, "you asked me to inquire about something." ”

"Great, I know that Qiubai is doing things safely." Luo Qingran nodded with a smile.

"Oh," Du Ruo suddenly exclaimed, "you two should stop playing dumb riddles, people are anxious." ”

Mu Qiubai smiled helplessly, ignored Du Ruo's complaints, and then said to Luo Qingran: "Since the founding of the country, the matter of salt introduction is not in the hands of the same official, in order to be afraid of which official will seek personal gain, illegal salt trafficking is a serious crime, once it is found, it will not be light, but because this industry has always been profitable, so there are still many people who are willing to take risks, in the past, the Cao Gang was doing this business, and now because the prince has taken over the Cao Gang, this business is banned, and now the main person in charge of the salt introduction in the DPRK is the eldest prince." ”

He didn't ask Luo Qingran much about what he was doing, but just told the truth about the news he had gotten, this was his trust as a friend, he knew that Luo Qingran was not a nonsense person, and she must have her reason for doing this.

Mu Qiubai didn't ask, Luo Qingran naturally didn't explain much, and only asked him, "Whose hands are Huajing's private salt in and out, can you find out?" ”

"This..."Mu Qiubai groaned slightly, "I'll try it." ”

Luo Qingran also knew the difficulty of this matter, so he didn't force it, and instructed: "You can do your best, it doesn't matter if you can't find out, but don't be affected by this matter." ”

Mu Qiubai smiled and nodded, "Don't worry, I know the severity." ”

"That's good." Luo Qingran also smiled.

Du Ruo listened to what they said about the salt, and the private salt was confused, and she didn't bother to ask again, anyway, her mind was not on this, and seeing that the two of them seemed to have finished talking about business, she asked Mu Qiubai to bring the new things over and take a look.

Mu Qiubai knew her temperament, so she only smiled and told Mingli to go and get the things.

Mingli left in response, and returned after a while, still holding a small box in his hand.

After Mingli put the box down, Mu Qiubai opened the lid of the box and led them to come and see.

After all, the room is full of young people, and when they heard that there were novelties, they all stepped forward and stretched their necks to see, and even Luo Qingran's interest was aroused by them.

Mu Qiubai saw that they had all gathered, so he took out the things in the box and put them on the small table and introduced them one by one.

It turned out that the merchant ship sent by the prince of Duanjin to test the waters came back the day before yesterday, bringing back a lot of novelties from overseas Fanbang, Mu Qiubai picked a small box suitable for his daughter's house, and planned to send it to Luo Qingran and Du Ruo and others, who knew that he happened to receive a letter from Luo Qingran, so he told her about it.

In fact, in the previous life, the power of maritime affairs was in the hands of Mo Rin, and Luo Qingran should have seen enough of these things, but the truth is the opposite.

At that time, she was busy trying to find ways to help Mo Rin seek great things, and she was intrigued with others, every time the maritime merchants came back, she didn't have a chance to meet, and Mo Rin never brought these things back to the house, so Luo Qingran's knowledge of these things was not as good as Mo Rin's subordinates.

Later, she learned that the reason why Mo Rin never took her to meet the maritime merchants was because he used this trade route to sell illicit salt and made all his ill-gotten gains.

Luo Qingran has been busy dealing with things at home since she was reborn, and the second room is often looking for trouble, and there are endless tricks, she must deal with it with her heart, plus the southern disaster took most of her attention some time ago, so she forgot about it.

Until that day, Zhishu happened to mention the interesting story of her and Zhili when she was a child, saying that sugar was expensive at that time, and Zhili ate salt as powdered sugar, and a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, and she suddenly remembered this incident, so she privately asked Mu Qiubai to inquire about the news.

She always felt that Mo Rin could think of making ill-gotten gains by selling illicit salt in her previous life, and most of her life would have the same plan.

Now that she knows about it, she naturally won't let him be satisfied!

Not only because of the harm to the people in the private salt pit, but also for a more important reason, in his previous life, Mo Rin relied on this money to raise a considerable number of private troops, and in the battle for succession, it greatly helped him eradicate dissidents!

Therefore, she wanted to cut off Mo Rin's financial route at the source, and also prepare for breaking his ambitions in the future. (To be continued.) )
