Cheng Chumo listened to Qin Jue's words, and was immediately moved.

What a good heavenly master, for my sake, it seems that I have really picked up a treasure.

Cheng Chumo's heart is full of beauty.

Soon, the people he shouted came to the place with an ox-cart, and they were also stunned to see the salt in the room.

But they are just subordinates, no matter how shocked they are, they can't show it to their faces.

The only way to do this is to pack all the salt and carry it to the ox cart.

Five tons of salt, which didn't seem like a lot, were quickly packed and shipped away.

Cheng Chumo took this group of people back to Chang'an directly and came to the West Market, Cheng's salt shop.

After a while, Cheng's salt shop hung out a sign, the price of salt is 20 wen a catty, and each person is limited to one catty per month, and you need to get a household registration certificate to buy.

When they learned the news, everyone returned to their respective homes and called the whole family, young and old, to go to the West Market to buy salt with their household registration certificates, and even some people called out to their neighbors.

At this time, the people of the entire Chang'an were crazy to participate in the buying boom.

Twenty pounds of salt!

You must know that vinegar cloth is more than this price in this era, so everyone went crazy in an instant.

Everyone was afraid that they would be one step too late, and the salt would be gone.

The first day was extremely hot, and there was a lot of movement in the West Market, but because this was the Cheng family's salt shop, the officials of the West City did not have the courage to go for trouble.

It's just that he also learned about this matter, so that he can report it when the time comes.

Not only the officials of the West City, but even every household knew about it.

Many people heard about this and smiled after inquiring about it.

Cheng Bites Jin is a shrewd person.

How did you give birth to such an idiot?

As soon as the front foot left Chang'an, the most important salt shop in the back foot was served by his own baby.

It's really a cheat.

20 Wen a pound of salt, this also dares to sell, and it is estimated that Cheng Biting Jin will vomit blood.

These people also sell salt, and they know the difficulty of refining salt, twenty wen, and they can't even do the basic processing fees.

It is estimated that this kind of thing will not last long, and it is impossible to say that in a few days, the Cheng family will go bankrupt.

They didn't take it to heart.

For several days, Cheng's salt shop was sold at the price of 20 wen a catty.

Although there are many people in Chang'an, because of the purchase restrictions, in the next few days, there are obviously fewer people who come here to buy salt than on the first day.

Twenty wen is not much compared to a pound of salt, but for the ordinary people of Chang'an, it is still quite a lot.

According to a family of five, if you buy all the salt, you can buy five catties, but it is still a little difficult to come up with this hundred dollars at once.

So some people take the money at a staggered time.

In the past few days, Cheng Chumo has been to Qin Jue's side several times.

There were many people in Chang'an, and there was no way, so the five tons of salt were bought on the first day.

Cheng Chumo took ten tons of salt from Qin Jue the next day.

In the end, Qin Jue asked Cheng Chumo to find a house in Chang'an City, and he would transport the salt over there in the future, so that it would be more convenient for everyone.

In fact, Qin Jue was still afraid that Cheng Chumo would walk around like this, and be discovered by someone with a heart, and then suspect him.

Be careful to sail the boat for 10,000 years, and if you accidentally capsize in the gutter, it will be bad.

Especially now that I don't have the slightest power, I can't play with others.

………………

East Palace.

At this time, Li Shimin was still living in the East Palace, dealing with government affairs.

"Li Junxian, what has been the recent movement in Chang'an City?"

Li Shimin didn't raise his head, his eyes stared at the fold in his hand, and asked casually.

At this time, it was less than a month before the Xuanwumen Incident, and he wanted to know if there were any unfavorable remarks in Chang'an City.

Li Junxian is the commander of the Hundred Cavalry Division, and the Hundred Cavalry Division is his spy organization, just like the existence of the Jinyi Guard in the Ming Dynasty.

Of course, the Baiqi Division is not as professional as Jinyiwei.

But it is still easy to grasp the information of Chang'an City.

"Your Majesty, recently, a strange thing happened in Chang'an City."

Li Junxian made a gesture to Li Shimin, and then said: "The salt shop of the Duke of Suguo has launched a salt as white as a snowflake, priced at twenty wen and one catty, and has robbed the business of the entire Chang'an Salt Market. ”

"What did you say?"

Li Shimin raised his head, looked at Li Junxian, and then asked, "Have you ever checked whether there is a problem with salt?" ”

"The humble post has been checked, there is no problem with the salt, it is the best refined salt, and it is better than the tribute salt."

Hearing this, Li Shimin knocked his hand on the table twice, and then fell into deep thought.

After a moment, he said, "Do you know where this salt comes from?" ”

"After this incident, the lowly office has been investigating and has found some clues.

These salts were brought back by Cheng Chumo, and I investigated along this line and found that Su Guogong had beaten him before going to the barracks.

Later, Su Guogong left Chang'an, and this Cheng Chumo sneaked out of the house, and when he came back, he brought back 10,000 catties of salt.

The next day he brought back 20,000 catties, which he did very secretly, and did not find out where he got this salt from.

Therefore, the humble position began to investigate the matter, and then found one thing, this Cheng Chumo had auctioned a bottle of wine in Pingkangfang a few days ago, worth 500 yuan! ”

"What?"

Li Shimin was stunned: "Five hundred yuan for a bottle of wine? Is the bottle gold-plated? Even if it's inlaid with gold, it's not worth the money. ”

"Your Majesty, I have inquired about it, it is a pure and immaculate glass bottle, and the wine in it is also as clear as water, Cheng Chumo said at the time, this is the elixir and jade liquid!"

"What? Glass bottles? Liquid elixir? ”

Li Shimin stood up directly, and then said: "Such a baby! I even put it up for auction......"

Speaking of this, Li Shimin glanced at Li Junxian, then sat down, calmed the resentment in his heart, and then asked, "Have you ever found out who bought it?" ”

"It's clear, it's Wu Yuanqing, the eldest son of the warrior of Ying Guogong."

"I see."

Li Shimin nodded, and then said to Li Junxian: "It seems that Wu Shiyan is still unwilling to make my arrangement." ”

After listening to Li Junxian's words, Li Shimin understood what Wu Shiyi meant.

I just want to put pressure on myself by bribing his father.

He didn't want to leave Chang'an, this is understandable, Chang'an is the center of the world, and if he goes to Yuzhou, he is far away from the center, and he doesn't want to.

Li Shimin also understands this, Li Shimin does not mean to treat the warriors badly.

Let the warrior go to Yuzhou, it was not decided to pat his ass, but carefully considered.

Because he felt that Wu Shi Yan's ability was enough to take on a big responsibility, and Wu Shi Yan went to Yuzhou, that is, a feudal official!

If you don't believe him, how can you let him become a feudal official?

The main reason why others targeted him was because of his background, the contradiction between a businessman-born person and a scholarly person, which was quite large.

"What's next, what did you find? Who is this glass bottle and the elixir jade liquid? ”

Li Shimin turned his head and continued to ask, salt is a necessity for the people's life, and salt and iron are no trivial matter, and they must be thoroughly investigated.
