The emperor was furious.

The officials present did not say much.

It is unwise to provoke an emperor.

"Retreat!" Li Shimin stood up coldly, then turned to leave.

Scattered Dynasty.

Zhang Ruoxu walked outside slowly.

"Gaoyang County, Your Majesty is invited." An attendant came to Zhang Ruoxu's side and said with a smile.

"Please lead the way."

Although the other party is a eunuch, Zhang Ruoxu can't afford to offend these people.

The waiter answered, and then walked forward with Zhang Ruoxu.

Finally.

Came to the outside of a large hall.

Zhang Ruoxu looked inside, and the eldest grandson Wuji and others were among them.

The courtiers of the Tang Dynasty are all very distinctive.

For example, the eldest grandson Wuji, who was fat and fat, laughed at it, and those who didn't know thought it was a profiteer from a certain family.

It seems that Gao Shilian's family is very good to him and raises him very fat.

Gao Shilian, on the other hand, is of medium stature and has a beard.

Cheng bites gold, with a lion's beard like a steel tie.

Wei Chi Jingde, very strong, very dark.

Fang Xuanling, an old boy, black and thin.

Du Ruhui, the old man, coughed a few times from time to time.

As for the rest, they also have their own characteristics.

It turned out that after these people went down to court, they all came.

Aren't they hungry?

Zhang Ruoxu was very depressed, and originally wanted to go back and have a good meal.

I'm hungry.

"Meet Your Majesty."

However, Zhang Ruoxu's speed is not slow.

Forward, salute.

"Zhang Ruoxu, can you really eat it as salt?" Li Shimin asked.

"Absolutely." Zhang Ruoxu said.

Nonsense.

Sodium chloride is an important part of table salt, do you say it can be eaten as salt?

"What the hell is the green man?" Li Shimin asked.

"Naturally, it's sodium chloride." Zhang Ruo smiled faintly and said, "Your Majesty, do you know why the sea water is so salty?" ”

"Could it be that this greenery is made of seawater?" Li Shimin's eyes couldn't help but stare at him, and he said: "Boil the sea for salt, you are clearly salt!" ”

Li Shimin was furious.

This hateful big man dares to deceive me!

In fact, in this era, there was already the practice of boiling seawater to evaporate salt.

It's just that the yield of boiling sea for salt is not high.

And because of the roads and other reasons, there is very little sea salt into the inland areas.

"Your Majesty, you are indeed the Holy Monarch of the Ages, Yao Shunyu Tang is still alive, my little trick was seen through by you at a glance." Zhang Ruoxu smiled slightly and said, "However, I have a way, and I can get tens of millions of stone salt every year." ”

"Hmph, if you deceive me, I will cut off your head!" Li Shimin was a lot unhappy.

"Your Majesty, the minister is loyal, where do you dare to deceive Your Majesty." Zhang Ruoxu hurriedly said: "My method is called the salt drying method. ”

"Salt?" Li Shimin was very puzzled.

"In the near sea, digging fields, paving bluestones, leading seawater to pour in, after the sun scorching, the ground will leave coarse salt, after grinding, you can get refined salt." Zhang Ruoxu said: "In addition, the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal has been opened, and salt can go straight to Luoyang from the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal!" ”

"It's as simple as that?" The eldest grandson Wuji couldn't help but stand up and said, "How can it be so simple? ”

"Simple?" Zhang Ruoxu smiled and said, "Eldest grandson, you think it's simple, that's because you sound simple, but it's difficult to do, it's a very hard and physically demanding job!" ”

"Moreover, just drying salt and injecting salt water is already an easy thing, but Your Majesty, the minister already has a solution to the problem." Zhang Ruo smiled and said, "However, the minister has to tidy up well." ”

"In this way, you can quickly write out the production process as it is." Li Shimin hurriedly said.

"Why don't you go back and tidy up first, and come back tomorrow?" Zhang Ruoxu hurriedly said.

"Yes." Li Shimin thought about it, he was too anxious.

Then, with a wave of his hand, he said, "Stand down." ”

"No!"

Zhang Ruoxu responded and hurriedly retreated.

Watching Zhang Ruoxu disappear, Li Shimin asked, "What do you think, what do you think of Zhang Ruoxu?" ”

"Your Majesty, Zhonghou has always been honest, I believe in him." Zhang Gongjin hurriedly stood up and said: "Zhonghou will not lie, the salt of the county mansion is estimated to come from this." ”

"Well, this son, it really doesn't look like a lie." Fang Xuanling stroked his beard and said, "Credible." ”

"In this way, let's wait for good news, if his salt making method can obtain a large amount of salt, in the future, my Tang Dynasty will conquer Liang Shidu and conquer the Turks, and I don't have to worry about the shortage of grain and grass." Li Shimin is looking forward to it.

"Moreover, once the output of salt increases, the price of salt will inevitably drop, and the people of Datang will be able to eat these refined salts at that time."

"Benefiting the country and the people, benefiting the country and the people." Li Shimin said very happily.

"Your Majesty, since it is beneficial to the country and the people, this is a great achievement!" Zhang Gongjin hurriedly said.

"It's just speculation now, and you haven't seen the results yet, Dingyuan Gong, your heart is a little anxious." The eldest grandson Wuji is a little displeased, even if you Zhang Gongjin ask for credit for your nephew, you can't help but be a little anxious.

……

Zhang Ruoxu walked outside.

As he walked, he sneered: "Zheng, not bad, not bad!" ”

"Zheng Rong, dare to engage Lao Tzu!"

"Lao Tzu must let you know how powerful Lao Tzu is!"

"Dog's day, the tiger is not powerful, you really think I am a sick cat!"

"Angered Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu made you ruined!"
