Chapter XVIII: Doubts
Ziyun watched the salt block being crushed by Ye Lin little by little, filtered, and purified, and finally half a jar of refined salt like snow appeared in front of her, and Ziyun felt a monstrous wave in her heart.
"Coarse salt is poisonous and cannot be eaten for a long time. From today onwards, the sergeants in the Chongzhou camp, whether soldiers or generals, will eat refined salt! Ye Lin dropped a sentence and turned to leave.
A long time after Ye Lin left, Zi Yun came back to her senses and said, "Uncle Liu, is this refined salt?" ”
Steward Liu bent down, pinched a little and put it in his mouth, and said in a deep voice: "This is the best refined salt, hall master!" Is this a demon or a fairy? ”
Ziyun looked at the direction of Ye Lin's departure and said, "I don't know, but with him in Chongzhou, I don't have to worry about refined salt anymore."
Ye Lin returned to the wooden house, washed his face and got into the quilt, this method may be detrimental to Li Shimin if it falls into the hands of Zixuan, but more people can eat refined salt, it is impossible for him to be on the boat of Zixuan for a lifetime, these two sisters are against Li Shimin, not Datang. And Ye Lin wants to untie the knot between Ziyi and Ziyun, he not only wants to save his own life, but also Ziyi and Ziyun's lives.
The night passed slowly, and Ye Lin, who was in the nest, opened one eye in a daze.
"Dao Chief, it's early," Ziyun's voice came from the side.
"Morning, Yun Hall Master" Ye Lin subconsciously replied, and after that, Ye Lin closed his open eyes, turned his head and continued to sleep.
"Do you still want to sleep?" Ziyun asked.
"What do you do when you don't sleep?" Ye Lin asked rhetorically in the bed.
"We all saw the process of making refined salt yesterday, so I came to the Taoist chief's room today."
"Didn't learn?"
"It's not really, it's just that I'm surprised that Dao Master would actually give such a method to Zixuan," Ziyun said.
"You helped me save the child, and I will give you this method, and you can make a lot of money with this method." Ye Lin opened his eyes and said.
"It's true that I can make a lot of money, but I still have doubts in my heart"
Ye Lin turned his head and got up, fortunately he didn't take off his clothes when he slept in a hurry yesterday, otherwise there would be two people embarrassed in the morning.
Ye Lin asked, "What is the Yun Hall Lord wondering about?" ”
"A lot, but I can't say it clearly, I just feel that you are a little strange, what the Taoist does seems to be different from ordinary people" Ziyun sat on the wooden chair and said slowly.
Ye Lin said: "The Yun Hall Lord helped me, and I also helped the Yun Hall Master a favor, nothing different."
Ziyun said: "Does that Dao chief know how precious refined salt is in Datang?" ”
Ye Lin said: "Know, it's probably very precious!" ”
Ziyun smiled and said: "Refined salt can only be eaten by the big families, and when it is used, there is a jar of refined salt and silver for a hundred taels, and yesterday you can process cheap coarse salt into high-grade refined salt with the method of the Taoist, which is already called an immortal law."
Ye Lin said: "Immortal law? Hehe, this method was taught to me by the master who raised me, and it is not an immortal method."
"Ao, I don't know who the master is?"
"It's not a master, it's been a while to drive the crane to the west, Lord Yun Palace, can you tell me, how do you plan to make money with this refined salt?" Ye Lin asked.
Ziyun said: "Zixuan is responsible for the production, and after the production is completed, it will be sold to the family and the black market, so that it is not afraid of being traced by the imperial court, and it can also collect money as soon as possible."
Ye Lin thought for a while and asked tentatively, "Does the Yun Hall Master think that this refined salt will have any effect on the Tang Dynasty?" ”
Ziyun said: "Lowering the price of refined salt and taxes in the imperial court, in general, will give that person a headache." However, there are more people in Datang who eat refined salt, which can be regarded as benefiting the people."
Saying this, Ye Lin saw a trace of excitement in Ziyun's eyes, but he was quickly suppressed by the rich sadness in his eyes.
Ye Lin said: "Ziyi told me your identity, I know what you are carrying, Poor Dao wants to ask the Yun Hall Master, how sure is revenge?" ”
Zi Yun's expression changed, and she got up and said in a deep voice: "I'm not sure, I'm not sure at all, Dao Chief, do you know why Zi Yi left Chongzhou City?" Because not long ago, a team of Li Shimin's mighty guards discovered Zixuan's location, so Ziyi was going to kill them, since the moment my father died, our sisters have been hiding in Tibet with hatred, the Taoist is not that our sisters must take revenge, but that our sisters have no other choice but revenge, if that team of mighty guards lives to tell Li Shimin the news, this Chongzhou City will be surrounded by Li Shimin's army in less than three days, the royal battle, there is always only you living and dying, he can't let Zixuan continue to exist"
Ye Lin's face changed, it turned out that Zi Xuan's position had been known by Li Er's subordinates, this was the reason why Zi Yi sent herself to Zi Yun to be a military advisor, but Zi Yi believed so much that she would help Zi Yun?
"Hall Master Yun, go wash your face, and then trouble the Hall Master to take me to see Xiao Liluo, since Ziyi has gone to solve this matter, then we have no other way than to believe in her" Ye Lin said.
"The Taoist is right, but the Taoist must be ready to leave the city. As soon as Li Shimin knows Zixuan's location, we will start to live in Tibet again," Ziyun said calmly.
Ye Lin nodded, and it could be seen that although Zi Yun had hatred in his heart, this Yun Hall Master wanted Zi Xuan to survive, and it was not impossible to untie Zi Yun's heart knot in this way.
Afterwards, Ye Lin and Ziyun looked at the unconscious Xiao Liluo again, the girl's breath was stable, and Ye Lin asked Ziyun to send someone to Chongzhou City to buy some herbs that were not available in the military camp, these herbs not only have the effect of stopping bleeding and removing stasis, but also used on Xiao Liluo's body will not make these whip marks scarred.
At the end of a busy day, night arrives on time.
