In the blink of an eye, the snow has drifted through Jiangning City, and the weather is getting colder and colder.

The news that there is no longer a shortage of salt in the Tang Kingdom has been spread into the capital, but there are those who believe and those who do not believe, they are all watching, but a few days have passed, except for rumors, but there is no move to open a warehouse to release salt and reduce prices. The price of salt is still high, and it is even rumored that the salt field is false, so the price of salt is still soaring, once reaching 400 yuan a catty. The more panicked I became, the more I felt that the saltworks were a lie.

Jiang Ningcheng fell into panic again, and Li Yu and other monarchs and ministers knew that they would solve it, but they didn't know what to do at the moment. But soon, notices were posted everywhere in Jiangning City overnight, and soon Jiangning City spread.

"Official salt purchase restriction order: The salt produced by the salt field of the country is entering Beijing one after another, and the initial quantity is limited, in order to give priority to ensuring the salt used by the people and avoiding unscrupulous merchants from hoarding goods, the purchase restriction order is implemented.

The price of salt was restored to 70 wen a catty, the people were given priority, followed by the officials, and each person was limited to half a catty per month, and the daily limit was 10 stones. All merchants and the like, their hired servants and monks, can only be purchased after the year of mass production.

All the people's homes, with the official inspection to the Jiangning Mansion to register and check, qualified by the salt and iron inspection to issue a certificate, vouchers to Wangjiang Tower to buy official salt. The rest of the official salt offices will stop selling, and violators will be permanently banned from selling. ”

The official salt that will return to normal prices is coming, and Jiangning City is in a carnival. Soon there were a number of government trucks at the south gate heading towards the direction of Wangjiang Tower, and the onlookers in front of Wangjiang Tower obviously saw the sampling inspection before unloading and handling, all of which were white salt.

Jiangningcheng is crazy. The sky-high price of 400 Wen suddenly dropped to 70 Wen, a drop of more than 80%. There was a long queue at the entrance of the Jiangning Mansion, which was comparable to the tourist attractions and women's toilets in later generations.

At the same time, several groups of soldiers and horses went to the various passes of the Tang State with the order to block the north-south and east-west water and land customs clearance and transportation.

Preparations are being made in the Wangjiang Tower. Once again, he was transferred and temporarily appointed as the governor of the salt patrol. has just turned from the sadness of losing Zhen Feng to joy, and he is very puzzled at this time.

"Brother Feng, why do you want to take care of this matter, won't it be solved in another ten days and half a month? Why bother to bring salt from the surrounding states and counties? ”

"Wei Ruan, the initiator of this matter, don't think about retreating, I want to give them a taste of despair."

"In that case, why did you let the people from the Salt and Iron Transfer Envoy Division and Jiangning Mansion get involved, their hands and feet were not clean, didn't they throw most of those salt to them in vain? I'm going to send someone to inspect why you stopped it? ”

"Give them a chance, but also give us a chance, see who grasps it in the end, if they don't change their dead nature, don't blame me for fishing and law enforcement, pulling out the radish and bringing out the mud."

"What is Fishing Enforcement?"

"Shhhh

"Okay. But Brother Feng, how do I feel that you are weird this time, you have already said that it is purely a coincidence that Song Guo inadvertently chased and killed your second uncle, why bother to provoke them again? ”

"Hehe, my second uncle just inadvertently entered their forbidden area and almost lost his life, I remember this hatred. Although the world kisses me with pain, do you think I should repay it with a song? Hehe, I'm sorry, the world kisses me in pain, and I'll slap him. ”

I couldn't understand the landing, but I could feel the anger on Zhen Feng's body. However, since Wei Ruan was supported by the salt and iron transfer envoy of the Song State and sent to cause trouble to the Tang State, he would be the one who fanned him.

The threshold of the yamen of Jiangning Mansion is about to be trampled on, and there is an endless stream of pickled things everywhere, the back door of individual officials' mansions, and the homes of personal servants.

The next day, outside the gate of Wangjiang Tower, a low fence enclosed a road that only allowed one person to pass, twisting and turning, enough to make hundreds of people line up at the same time without messy, and there were soldiers on duty on both sides to maintain order, and there were people who wanted to defecate.

There is almost no chaos in Wangjianglou, in addition to order, the most important thing is to see the voucher to sell salt, there is no card, fast and convenient, ten stone salt is quickly sold out.

After three days like this, a voice gradually occupied the mainstream: this is the new salt transported from Qingjiang County, all of which was squeezed out of the official salt warehouses of the surrounding prefectures and counties, just to force the price of private salt to be reduced. In another ten days and half a month, once the official salt warehouse can't hold on, the price will rebound.

As long as you can buy 70 yuan of official salt at a low price, you can resell it at a price of 400 yuan or even higher after a while, which is definitely an excellent opportunity to make money out of thin air.

Seeing this scene happening, Xu You, the boss behind the scenes, came to Wangjiang Tower with the landing, Xu You was very anxious: "Brother Feng, we worked hard to transfer official salt into Beijing and sell it in the name of new salt in Qingjiang County, but it was poked out, do you want the old man to send someone to investigate and catch a group of people to kill chickens and monkeys?" ”

"Mr. Xu, why bother so much if you want to arrest someone, just arrest Martin, he did it."

Martin on the side was not ashamed but giggled proudly after hearing this. Landing angrily pointed to his nose and said, "Martin, didn't you say it yourself, you are no longer helping to abuse, and you will no longer do anything to be sorry for Brother Feng, why do you have to do this?" ”

"My Hou Ye, you can't complain about me, if you want to blame Brother Feng, it was he who asked me to give this news to Mother Liu in Huajian Lou after a lot of hard work, hard work, and money, and it was really said by Brother Feng, and as soon as the news passed, it spread in the city immediately."

"I have to send a pennant to Mother Liu, and it will be written: Jiangning Big Horn."

"Brother Feng, I don't understand what you're talking about. It took me a lot of effort to block the news of the warehouses in various states and counties, otherwise the salt and iron transfer envoy would have been rumored to have a rumor, why would I dig a pit for myself today? ”

"It's not about digging a pit for yourself, it's about digging a pit for Wei Ruan and those officials, and this pit is the key."

Xu You pondered, as if he had smelled a larger conspiracy behind Zhen Feng's hand. He laughed and said, "It seems that Brother Feng has thought it through for a long time, but it won't keep us all in the dark, you might as well talk about your plan and see how we cooperate next." ”

"You must think that my proposal to restrict the purchase of low-cost official salt is to stabilize the people's minds and benefit the people, and it would be good if I could lower the price of salt by the way. But have you ever wondered why I should ask for a purchase limit, only 10 stone a day? Wouldn't it be troublesome to stir up the public for such a trivial matter? ”

"Yes, I said at the time, according to the current official salt reserves, one hundred stones a day, it is no problem to insist on half a month, but you refused, you don't say the reason, and you have to pretend to be mysterious. Now let's talk about it. ”

"I want Wei Ruan to be removed from this world, I want this group of corrupt officials who make a fortune to go to hell, and I want to make those undercover agents in the Song Kingdom tremble and panic." Zhen Feng didn't say the reason, but just proclaimed his proposition with the spirit of Wang Ba: "Mr. Xu, are all the upright people I asked you to assemble who don't understand the law are ready?" As soon as the butcher's knife comes out, who will compete! ”
