When Luo Li's mind pierced into Li Shimin's primordial spirit. At the first moment, he had already opened his Yin Yang Yuan Pupil and looked in all directions.

Nothing was found anywhere, and it was only when his gaze focused on a corner in the direction of his left hand that he spotted two looming figures.

But just when he subconsciously pressed his hand on the Qianniu Knife, intending to move. The two figures, however, took the initiative to appear and walked out of the darkness.

Shakshasa was also taken aback, he had not been aware of the existence of these two before. And when he saw the burly figure who came first, his eyes changed drastically, and the cold hairs on his body stood on end.

Li Shimin was also taken aback, just because he recognized these two voyeurs who came without telling him. Especially the ink armor on the former's body, he was deeply impressed - it was the divine armor 'Qinglong Wudang' that had shown its might on the Luo River that day.

However, Li Shimin's expression is still very unsightly.

"Entering without telling you, trespassing into private houses, listening to the wall, this is not a way of hospitality!"

In his eyes, there was even a bit of murderous aura.

If it weren't for the person opposite, who was the first person below the so-called Great Grandmaster, he asked himself that he couldn't beat everyone in this courtyard. At this moment, he had already made a move.

The pretty girl behind Zhang Zhongjian couldn't help but blush, but the former didn't care, and after removing the ink armor on his head, he smiled heartily at Li Shimin: "Zhang did come abruptly this time, but he didn't mean to peep, I'm really sorry!"

Li Shimin snorted softly, hearing that Zhang Zhongjian's words were insincere, but he then noticed Zhang Zhongjian's meaning.

"You're looking for me?"

"To be precise, I want to find Li Yi to do a business with your father, and I want to ask you to introduce him on my behalf. ”

Zhang Zhongjian said this, but looked at the other side with deep meaning: "But Zhang didn't expect to see a terrible scene here." The second grade of the true yuan, consistently, Li Yitong's cultivation has reached such a state. There is also the one in the distance, there are not many people in this world who can detect Zhang's appearance and make Zhang jealous. If Zhang's guess is right, it should be the 'Faceless Arrow' Luo Li, such characters have been snare by Li Yitong, which is really incredible. I just dare to ask, Li Erlang, what is your intention to lurk and endure, sharpen your minions, and snare your arms to help?"

Li Shimin didn't speak, just quietly looked at Zhang Zhongjian, even in the face of the latter's somewhat inquisitive and oppressive gaze, he didn't let it go.

But Zhang Zhongjian had already understood, and smiled again: "It seems that my daughter, I really didn't misunderstand you." She said that even if Tang Guofu would swallow his anger, you, Li Shimin, would never be patient. ”

Li Shimin couldn't help but look away, and glanced at the girl named Zhang Yurou behind Zhang Zhongjian. And his face was still gloomy: "If it's for the private salt business, the seniors can go to the Tang Guogong Mansion tomorrow evening, and I will introduce you to it!"

His feelings about private salt are very complicated, on the one hand, this is digging the corner of the imperial court, and on the other hand, many people in the Kansai area can no longer afford to use salt.

Nowadays, the salt tax of the imperial court is becoming heavier and heavier, and the price of one liter of official salt has reached one or two lines of silver. Now it is the Kansai generation with a thicker background, and it is also full of complaints.

In addition, he also knew that the expenses of the martial arts Li family's family were not small, and maybe his father would be interested, and he had no right to make decisions on behalf of Li Yuan.

It was just that what made Li Shimin curious was that Zhang Zhongjian was planning to transport salt from Jianghuai and Liangguang to Kansai and Henan to sell it? This may not be too far.

What's more, in the Kansai generation, there are also Jiexian Salt Pond and Yanchuan Salt Pond for salt, so there is no need to go far at all.

"It's the white salt and green salt of Qinghai!"

Zhang Zhongjian seemed to see Li Shimin's suspicions, and directly explained the answer: "In recent years, the official salt of the salt pond in Xie County and the salt pond in Yanchuan has become expensive, while although the road in Qinghai is difficult and dangerous, the salt of white salt is of good quality, and the price sold to Kansai is only one-tenth of that of official salt in Kansai. As for green salt, even the salt wells in Shu are scarce. Today's Chang'an Luoyang is priceless and marketable. ”

Li Shimin's eyes showed a look of clarity, and he was also secretly surprised. He doesn't know much about this salt-producing area, but this guy actually has connections with those Qiang people in Qinghai, and he is really powerful.

As for green salt, he also knew that this kind of salt was pure in flavor and did not contain more or less bitterness like other salts, and it was the best salt in the world. However, the price of this salt is also expensive, in the Great Sui, only the dignitaries and nobles who have a certain amount of financial resources can enjoy it, but the supply in Luoyang City is still in short supply.

But then he heard Zhang Zhongjian's voice change, and an inexplicable smile appeared on his face: "Zhang came this time, originally to see if there was any possibility of cooperating with Tang Guogong." But now I find that Li Yi and you may be a more suitable partner to work with. ”

"Who to work with?"

Li Shimin's eyes once again showed doubts: "Dare to ask for details? Seniors will never cooperate with me to sell illicit salt?"

"How is it impossible? In a certain opinion, you Li Erlang also have enough connections, and also have a certain amount of financial resources and manpower, why can't you cooperate with me?"

In Zhang Zhongjian's eyes, a different color flashed: "My partner in Qinghai is a Tibetan person. This foreign race, in Tibet and Qinghai, has risen momentum, and there are no opponents around, so the supply is still very stable. It's just that Master Zampu still doesn't believe me, and I can't get much for the time being, and I only have about 15,000 stone of white salt and 1,000 stone of green salt a month. Erlang, don't tell me, you can't even sell this bit of salt? I can give you 20% of the profit from this salt!"

When Li Shimin heard this, he couldn't help but be moved. Fifteen thousand stone is one and a half million liters, and the price of official salt on the market today is one or two lines of silver, while the price of private salt is two yuan.

In other words, this month's time is 300,000 taels. In addition to freight and cost, the profit should be about 200,000 taels, and the profit of 20% is 40,000 taels of silver.

Li Shimin believes that these salts should be sold very well. Even if he is a son of a family, he knows that most of the salt used by the people today is bitter salt, and there are even black-hearted salt merchants who seep sand into the salt.

In addition, there is green salt, which is the real big head. In the market of Luoyang today, a liter of green salt can be sold for a high price of ten taels. And a thousand stones is 100,000 liters, which is equal to a million taels.

Qingyan's profit will only be higher, and Li Shimin guesses that it can have a net profit of 800,000 to 900,000 taels. And the harvest of 20% is nearly 160,000.

This harvest is comparable to his monthly profit from assembling ink armor! Although this business is a bit troublesome, there is no way that anyone in this world will be too rich.

And if he returns to the palace to be on duty, the speed of assembling the ink armor will inevitably drop significantly, and he doesn't have so much time to spend on it. And the parts of Weiwei Temple may not be able to be supplied stably all the time, in case his father is transferred to another position?

As for the Tibetan people, Li Shimin knew that this clan, also known as the Tubo, was led by a descendant of the former king of Nanliang, the bald and lily Lugu. After the fall of Nanliang, his son Fan Ni led his troops to cross the Yellow River, crossed the Jishi Mountain, conquered the Xiqiang tribes, and gained a firm foothold in Qinghai. After that, it grew stronger and stronger, and now it has the tendency to unify Qinghai and Tibet.

If Zhang Zhongjian is the Zampu who persuaded the Tibetan people, then there is really no need to worry about the supply of goods. Once trust has been established, the size of the transaction between the two parties will only grow.

But after Li Shimin pondered for a while, he still shook his head slightly: "It's best for seniors to go to my father, and I don't dare to be interested in this business." ”

He doesn't like a lot of money, he doesn't like trouble, he doesn't be loyal to the country, and he's afraid of dirty hands or anything. Xuanba's death broke many of his bottom lines, and now that the whole world is flooded with private salt, who can't do it?

But at this time, Li Shimin is indeed flawless and distracted.

"Don't be in a hurry to refuse!"

The corners of Zhang Zhongjian's bearded lips drew a smug arc: "If I can provide you with a start-up capital of one million yuan and provide you with Zhang's news channel?"

Li Shimin's heart shook slightly, and he looked at Zhang Zhongjian again: "What do you mean by this?"

I don't know where you're getting the information of your enemies. It's nothing more than those in the black market, or the Fengqi Tower in the south of Luoyang City?"

When Zhang Zhongjian said this, he noticed that Li Shimin's qi had changed slightly, so he smiled even more: "But you probably don't know the background of this Fengqi Tower, and few people know that behind them, it is actually the Demon Strategy." This magic gate is notoriously undisciplined and has no bottom line. It seems to be trustworthy, but in fact, as long as the price is right, they can sell anything. Erlang, you can snare the faceless arrow Luo Li under your command, it must be the information that you bought from Fengqi Tower at a large price recently. But then, Erlang, do you still want to get news from them? Do you know that one day in the future, they will not disclose your Li Shimin's transaction in Fengqi Building to others?"

When he said this, Luo Li, who was lurking 1,200 steps away, suddenly turned blue, and then hammered the green brick under him heavily.

A few days ago, he also bought some news in Fengqi Building. Presumably this is also the case, and he sold his whereabouts when he changed hands.

However, the news of the Demon Ce Dao is indeed well-informed, and he has actually mastered the foundation of his faceless arrow.

Fortunately, the person who bought this news is the second son of the Li family, his current father-in-law-

Li Shimin was silent, Zhang Zhongjian said that at this point, he really had no reason to refuse.

And after thinking for a while, he took a deep breath, and finally put away the spikes and defenses all over his body: "I don't know my seniors, why do you want to help me so much?"

At this time, Zhang Zhongjian's eyes also showed a bit of appreciation, the guy in front of him was really not a stupid person, nor was he heartless.

"Zhang has said before, your kindness to save my wife and daughter is not so worthless. What's more—"

His voice paused, and there was a murderous intent in his eyes: "Erlang, your enemy, is also likely to be Zhang's rival in the mall." If you can repay your favor and create a little trouble for your opponent, why not? Not to mention that in addition, Zhang is still one thing, and I want to ask Erlang. ”
