What day is today, some people say that it is Victory Day, some people say don't let the tragedy happen again, but I think that letting the Wukou sign the surrender document again in front of the divine toilet is more conducive to the metabolism of the Chinese people and the people of the world!

"It's finally over!"

Shouhan lays himself flat on the bed, allowing his tired body to make intimate contact with the fluffy futon to relieve the fatigue of these days. The fragrant bedding dyed by salt and plum made Shouhan a little drunk.

Although it was a triumphant return, the things that happened after the victory were no less than after the defeat, such as the rewards of the soldiers, the distribution of the spoils of war or commercial profits, the statistics and replenishment of the losses of weapons and ammunition, the summary statistics of the battles of each unit, the evaluation of merits, and so on.

The most important thing is the establishment of military casualty insurance.

According to the principle of economic openness and personnel openness in the management of the army formulated by Li Shouhan, the income from this trip to Luzon was counted.

Seventeen million taels of silver.

Obtain 210,000 taels of gold.

Obtained copper, 430,000 catties.

Obtained more than 2 million catties of brown sugar.

Pig iron numbers are being counted.

After deducting the cost of goods and normal profits in this trade, there are still profits of 9 million 330,0217 thousand taels!

Hearing this number, the whole army was in an uproar!

However, Shouhan's following actions are even more surprising.

"On this trip to Luzon, whether it is the soldiers who stay in Ha Jing or those who go with the fleet, there are rewards. It is still implemented according to the previous standards! ”

However, the way it is performed has changed.

Of the 9 million taels of silver, 2 million taels will be stored as a casualty insurance reserve, 1 million taels will be used for the construction of public facilities such as Siwucang, 2 million taels will be used for the construction of roads and bridges leading to Ha Jing, and another 1 million taels will be used as the construction of the Second Bureau of Huimin and Jimin. Huimin is a pharmacy, and Jimin is a relief agency for those widows and widows. The remaining part was distributed according to the proportion of three who set out on the expedition, two who stayed in Ha Tinh, and half of the trainees. At the same time, personal injury insurance was taken out for every soldier, including the sailors on board, as well as those who had received military training.

According to the insurance regulations, once a soldier is killed or injured in the course of performing a mission, the insured will receive a certain amount of compensation, which can be withdrawn in a lump sum, or it can be handled by the beneficiary or the client on his behalf. As for the amount of compensation, it will be calculated comprehensively based on many factors and coefficients such as the policyholder's position, level, and insured amount.

If there is no personal injury or death during the service, the insured person can withdraw all the insurance money when he or she retires and use it as a pension.

Everyone is nervously calculating according to this principle, whether they will accept this insurance, or take real money and go home to marry a wife and build a house?

After careful calculation, the vast majority of people chose the safest and most important option: two-thirds of the gold and silver due to the reward were used as insurance money, and the rest was paid in cash.

This is also expected by Shouhan.

However, after a few wars, people discovered the benefits of insurance, and it turned out that in addition to a pension for injuries and deaths, they could also receive a large amount of insurance. As a result, there are more and more brave people in the army who are not afraid of death, and even more and more people who are looking for death.

For this reason, Shouhan had a headache for a long time, and finally had to issue an amendment, and anyone who did not carry out weapon operations in accordance with the regulations and regulations, and did not abide by military regulations and military discipline and was injured or killed in battle, the insurance money was paid at a 50% discount. Only then did he stop this crooked wind.

I didn't enjoy a few days in the fragrant bed of Yanmei'er, and Shouhan's vacation was over.

"Am I easy!? Why can others be the shopkeeper, why do I have to bow down to everything? Why do you have a dry dragon in the braid play, a kang mat and the like, just wander around if you have nothing to do, soak your sister, I can't do it?! ”

Unable to stop muttering, Shouhan saw Li Peilin, Chen Tianhua and others who stayed behind during this period of time.

"Your Excellency, please take a look." Li Peilin had a slight redness and swelling at the corner of his eyes, and handed a stack of newspapers to Li Shouhan.

Well, this is the newspaper of the Ming Dynasty? Shouhan flipped through it with interest, of course, there will be no celebrity gossip in this kind of newspaper, and some of them are probably such as the leader's speech, the review of the recital, and so on.

However, the contents of a newspaper caught Shouhan's attention.

In May of the third year of the Apocalypse (1623), the Yellow River broke in the area of Suiyang, Xu and Pi, and the land was flattened within 150 miles, and all kinds of money and grain were exempted in the first year of the Apocalypse in Suining County.

In May, Zhu Xieyuan sought to capture Yongning, and concluded that the reason for the previous failure was the weak division of troops, so he withdrew all the troops to Changning, and even broke the villages of Matangkan, Guanyin, Qingshan Cliff, and Tianpengtong. Rendezvous with Qin Liangyu's soldiers, attack Yongning, defeat Yu Yin in the land, chase to the old military camp and umbrella shop, and burn his camp. Hao Yin was injured and fled, and Panhu was shot and killed. He also pursued the defeated Hengshan, arrived at the city of Yongning, and then attacked it, and dropped 20,000 people. Deputy Chief Soldier Qin Yanzuo and others Ke Zunyi. Chongming's father and son fled all the way into Linzhou City. In July, Lin Zhou was conquered by the general Luo Ganxiang, and Luxury Chongming fled to Kezhong Dam in Longchang, Shuixi, and defended it according to his sister Luxury Shehui. The general soldier Li Weixin broke through Kezhong, and Chongming's father and son broke into Shenqing and captured his wife An and brother Chonghui.

On the 3rd of the month, the Chinese side of the engineering department has a certain degree of sparse Chen soldiers' salaries: since the Liaodong War, more than 4.85 million taels of new salaries have been paid every year, and it has been five years now, totaling about 20 million taels. "The people knocked out the bones and removed the marrow, and sold their wives for the sake of punishment." Only one pass of mountains and seas will cost four million taels per year. In addition, in recent years, more than 91,000 new recruits have been added to Denglai, Tianjin, Jingshi, Tongshi, Miyun, Zhangjiawan and the sea, with an annual fee of 900,000 taels; The old soldiers in Jizhen discussed an increase in salary, about tens of thousands of taels per year; Other rewards, horse grazing, boats, cars, and other expenses require more than 100,000 taels per year. A total of 1,200,000 taels of recruits were paid, which was combined with 4 million taels at Shanhaiguan for a total of 5,200,000 taels. The annual additional 4.85 million taels are still short of 350,000 taels even if they are all used inside and outside Shanhaiguan. In fact, there is still a shortage of 1.62 million taels of pay in the Shanhaiguan area every year. The total of the beggar households and the two soldiers, raising the soldiers and making up for the salary, not sick the country, not the people, do not wait for it to change and then figure it out. The second part of the household soldiers was ordered to discuss the performance in detail.

On August 17, Chen Eryi said in the middle of the engineering department: The price of weaving materials in Zhejiang Province is more than 1015,400 taels, and the loss is more than 378,500 taels. Begging to reduce tens of thousands of dollars within the 18th movement, or suspend one transportation every year to relieve the people's hardship. The emperor did not allow it.

I see! After several years, the rebellion in the southwestern provinces was about to be pacified, but the war in Liaodong was still protracted. No wonder the corners of Li Peilin's eyes were red, thinking that he had heard that the official gentry in the mainland had mentioned the matter of Liaodong, so they wanted to lash out at Li Chengliang for raising tigers. If you change anyone, as long as you have a little heart, how can you not be moved when you see your own parents still being so humiliated after they die?

"Also, my lord, in addition to the breach of the Yellow River, the severe drought in northwest Shaanxi has caused a popular uprising." Li Peilin handed another copy of the newspaper to Shouhan.

This is a report from an official from the northwest to the imperial court, which roughly means that my hometown has no harvest due to years of drought. The common people eat grass roots without food, eat tree bark without grass roots, and have no bark, so the people have to go up the mountain to dig Guanyin soil to satisfy hunger, and Guanyin soil is full of less food, and after a few days, they will die of abdominal distension and fall. In order to survive, hungry people gather together as "thieves", and instead of waiting to starve to death, it is better to die for "thieves". He also burned human bones for wages, and boiled human flesh for food, and those who ate men died in a few days with red and swollen faces, and heat and dryness.

It's finally here! Shouhan felt indescribable in his heart, he knew that the Xiaoice River period was about to begin, and in the continuous famines, countless hungry people emerged, and among these hungry people, there was the power to overthrow the Ming Dynasty. In other words, there are several straws that crushed the Ming Dynasty.

"How's our grain harvest?" Thinking of the straw, Shouhan asked about his own grain harvest again.

"This year's second crop of paddy has been put into storage, and the third crop has also started to be filled, and a good harvest is expected. Some of the wasteland reclaimed last year was given by the secret method of the adults, and this year the trial planting of rice has begun, with an area of about 300,000 mu. Nearly one million acres of newly reclaimed wasteland have been planted with corn, sweet potatoes and other crops. According to the estimate of the minimum yield of three stones per mu, more than 1.2 million stones of grain should be added to the warehouse. This is the public grain for the second rice crop. Li Peilin was very responsible and reported a series of figures.

The so-called secret method is nothing more than the so-called Litian powder produced by boiling the grass ash and lime water for the lodging of the rice field. Farmers everywhere now see it as a guarantee of a good harvest, and large numbers of people carry it back on their shoulders and sprinkle it in their fields.

At the same time, the problem of how to quickly turn large areas of newly cultivated land into mature land that can be used to grow crops is a major headache for Zheng Quanfang, who is in charge of reclamation and farming, and according to past experience, such a process will take at least two to three years to complete.

In line with the principle of turning in contradictions, this difficult problem was once again placed in front of Shouhan.

"If you want me to come for anything, what's the use of waiting for the Craftsman Association?" Shouhan was half joking and half serious, and he replied so on the post.

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention.

Looking at the reply post, the cadres of the Craftsman Association were a little frightened. "We, the people who inherited the favor of adults, are now rich in food and clothing, we have face everywhere when we go out, and there are silver and copper coins in the cabinet at home, but how can we make these things bother adults?"

Several bigwigs of the Craftsman Association said so.

As a result, it is necessary to concentrate manpower to tackle key problems.

Under Shouhan's prompting according to his own half-understanding, the craftsmen began to tirelessly study fly ash, plant ash, table salt, urine, and coal gangue. Mixing, dissolving, calcining. One idea after another was proposed, and one by one it was overturned. One process after another was tested, but the results of the test were all one word, failure.

Until the test records accumulated a full cabinet in the cabinet of the Craftsmen's Guild. All kinds of practical equipment were also piled up in the storeroom of the Craftsmen's Association. But people found that there was no money and food to use!

Several directors of the Craftsmen's Association had no choice but to ask Shouhan to continue to increase the funds for this project, or to ask for guilt.

At this time, Shouhan was preparing for the expedition to Luzon, and he was busy hitting the back of his head, but he learned that several old gentlemen had been tossing for several months because of his words, and every day they were covered in soot, grass and wood ash, mixed with the smell of urine. This made Shouhan very unbearable.

With a stroke of the pen, four thousand taels of silver were granted to the Craftsmen's Association from Shouhan's own inner treasury as actual funds.

After calming the hearts of several old gentlemen, they had to sit together and discuss the technical details and ideas.

It's hard to talk about!

Shouhan was a little stunned!

The idea of the Craftsmen's Association has touched the edge of the famous Hou's alkali making method.

Moreover, in the alkali production method, the most difficult link, the large-scale production of ammonia, in addition to the idea that ammonia can be heated by adding substances such as plant ash to urine, and then dissolved in water, the old gentlemen also found another way.

In the ground or on the ground, use an anvil to build a constant temperature furnace with a height of 2.5 feet and a diameter of 2.5 feet, leave a ventilation channel next to the top of the furnace, install 2 or 3 iron pipes with a diameter of 6 inches thick at the crossing, and the iron pipes extend upwards about 9 feet, and extend into the cooling pool with water (3 feet high and 1 zhang long) with anvils. In the cooling pool, eight connected thin pipes should be installed, one end of the thin pipe is connected to the thick pipe, one end stretches out of the cooling pool to send out the exhaust gas, on the inner pipe of the cooling pool, make a small opening to connect the thin pipe, the thin pipe extends out of the cooling pool, and the ammonia water flows out of this pipe after dissolving in the water.

With ammonia, alkali production activities can be carried out. It should be known that ammonia is one of the basic materials for the manufacture of soda ash, and soda ash is one of the basic materials for the manufacture of caustic soda, and caustic soda is one of the basic materials for the manufacture of absorbent cotton. If there is no ammonia, there is no soda ash, there is no caustic soda, there is no absorbent cotton without caustic soda, there is no medical cotton without absorbent cotton, and there is no first-aid kit for soldiers without medical cotton,...... A lot of things can't be carried out. Shouhan was dizzy by the results in front of him. He knew that the way to solve many things, or the key to opening the door to a new business, was in the hands of these craftsmen who thought they were useless and wasted a lot of money and food for adults.

It's just that they don't know it.

Who said the ancients had no wisdom? It's just that wisdom is sometimes that layer of window paper!

Calm your mind and try to calm yourself down. Shouhan began to communicate with several craftsmen in front of him.

"Don't panic, gentlemen, I've read everyone's test records, and it shouldn't be far from what I want!"

Shouhan's words are not hypocritical to appease people's hearts, but they are. With ammonia, bicarbonate can be formed, and with bicarbonate you can find a way to crystallize it.

This is the essence of Hou's alkali making method.

Hou's alkali production method is the most efficient and the lowest requirements for the industrial base of all alkali production methods, except for a gas circulation pipe, there is no technical pressure, any era can be done. And this trachea, Shouhan has already thought about it, so he will use the most mature and stable bronze to make it.

As long as there is an adequate guarantee of ammonia.

Today, thanks to the burning of coke, a large amount of coal gangue has been singled out as industrial waste, but the waste is a misplaced treasure.

The same misplaced treasure is the fly ash produced after a large amount of coke is made into steel or iron.

This thing is very polluting to the environment, but this thing is actually a kind of treasure, under the encouragement and guiding opinion of Shouhan, the craftsmen mixed fly ash and soda ash in a ratio of 1:0.87 and then put it into the furnace for calcination. The temperature is 875 °C, the calcination time is about 1.5 hours, and the substance formed after calcination is a fully qualified silicon fertilizer.

Silicon fertilizer is usually used as a base fertilizer, and 50-100 catties are applied per acre. However, it should be noted that it must be applied on acidic soils, the higher the acidity of the soil, the better the effect.

As a result, the first batch of silicon fertilizer produced was used in the newly opened up wasteland of the Li family. People were surprised to find that the soil was rapidly changing with the naked eye, and after half a year, it was already possible to carry out rice planting experiments.

"These 300,000 acres of new paddy fields, although they can grow rice, have a little drawback." Li Peilin's words pulled Shouhan back to reality from ecstasy.

"What's the downside?" Shouhan was a little flustered in his heart, it couldn't be the use of chemical fertilizers, what new problems had arisen, right?!

"My lord, according to the farmer's reaction, these paddy fields cannot be used for rice and fish farming. The fry were put in the water and died soon after. ”

It's strange if you don't die! When Shouhan heard this, a stone in his heart fell to the ground. The water in the rice field is a chemical fertilizer solution, and how long can the fish fry survive when they soak in the chemical fertilizer liquid?

"Well, it's okay! Brother Zong, you go back and discuss with Fu Bo, and then ask the people in my house to issue a notice in the name of my Li family, all the farmers who plant the newly opened paddy fields of my Li family, I will personally subsidize everyone with one tael of silver per household, and please eat fish. In addition, after harvesting this season's rice, they can try to interplant rice and rape next year. Rapeseed is supplied by my Li family, and the harvested rapeseed is purchased by my family according to the market price. Shouhan couldn't help but let out a smug laugh in his heart. The fish are gone, but I can promote the intercropping technology of rape and rice, so as to get a large amount of oil.

There is food in the hand, and there is no panic in the heart.

This is a sentence that Shouhan's grandfather has been babbling on his lips for many years.

"Nowadays, in all parts of the General's Palace, because there is a lot of meat to eat, there is a surplus of rice. Hufang has ordered that the treasury and grain merchants should not take the opportunity to lower prices for peasant households who are willing to sell surplus grain. ”

Because the schooner is used as a trawler, a large number of seafood has been put into the market, in the past, a strong laborer needed at least two catties of grain a day to ensure the nutritional needs, in the combination of fish floss, meat, eggs and many other non-staple foods, has been reduced to about one catty can guarantee the demand.

However, people in this era cannot explain the relationship between fat, starch, and protein, and can only explain it in a self-deprecating way: "People are cheap, they always want to eat when they don't have them, and they can't eat them when they have them." ”

"My lord, how to deal with the food problem?" Fu Bo, Wu Cunjie, and Li Peilin, as cadres of the administrative system, stared at Shouhan with blank eyes, hoping to get his instructions.

"Tell the Han Yuan firm, Yuhetai, Tonghe Dyeing Workshop and other companies to buy grain farmers openly." Just kidding, it won't be long before food becomes a strategic material in the Ming Dynasty, just like oil.

"Households allocate funds to various village forts to increase the construction of Siwucang, and each village can also build various righteous warehouses according to their own conditions. At the same time, the number of Siwucang directly under the General's Mansion should also be increased. For this, the house came up with the article. ”

If every mu of paddy fields in the jurisdiction can reach an average annual output of 14,500 catties in the future, coupled with the terrible speed and transportation capacity of scissors and schooners, Shouhan will have the confidence to exchange grain for the American silver that the Ming Dynasty has absorbed for hundreds of years. "It's much better than falling into the hands of Jiannu to repair the garden and smoke a big cigarette!"

Flipping through the newspapers that ended last month, that is, in August of the third year of the Apocalypse, Shouhan suddenly remembered another important event.

"Sect Brother, what do you think of Ning Qian's military preparation who is stationed in the Zhongqian Station?"

About this, the Internet of later generations can be said to be clear, those who destroy it call him a traitor, and those who praise it call it the reincarnation of Wuhou and the injustice of Wu Mu.

"This person? I have seen his name and resume on the list of gentlemen, this person was born as a Tongjin Shi in the 47th year of Wanli, and was appointed as Shaowuzhi County in Fujian in 48 years, and now he is already a military officer. The speed of promotion can be described as non-rotational. But I don't know what his talent is, but, judging from his actions, I'm afraid that his virtue and talent don't match! I don't know what the war is going on, but I say something, 'Give me the army and the money valley, and I will defend this alone!' But I don't know that what Daming lacks now is military horses, money and food! In the future, this person will inevitably end up a hundred times worse than Yang Hao. Li Peilin pursed his lips.

"How can Brother Zong? Some people call it today's Qi Shaobao! ”

"How can he be compared to Qi Shaobao?! That Qi Shaobao, the southern and northern captives, everything he went to was flat, and he won a lot of heads, can this person have? ”

"After Qi Shaobao's death, the family had no money to spare, only dozens of military books, but Yuan was originally poor, and after he took office, his family suddenly became rich, and his younger brother has become the leader of the salt merchants in Guangdong Province."

"The ambition is great, and the power is sparse. is suspicious, and he is good at killing people without authority. The right and ability do not match the strict zhòng, and there is a constant attack on the Jiannu, alas! This person is bound to become the biggest scourge of the Ming Dynasty. ”

Li Peilin came to such a conclusion for Inspector Yuan.

"Brother Zong, look at this text, in the spring, the superintendent Sun Chengzong ordered him to soothe the various departments of Ha and Shen and ordered them to move out of Balipu to Ningyuan and recover two hundred and seventy li, this is a reward policy? ……”

As Li Peilin, who was familiar with the complicated situation between friends and foes in Liaodong, he began to explain Li Shouhan's questions to him.

In order to divide and disintegrate the Hu, the imperial court adopted the proposal of Wang Xiangqian, the governor of Jiliao, and implemented a policy of "rewarding" the Mongolian tribes outside the border, that is, awarding silver rewards, striving for them to form an alliance with the Ming Dynasty to jointly resist the Houjin, at least to maintain a neutral posture; Some Mongol tribal leaders accepted the reward.

"This policy must be a policy for the sick people and the country!" After explaining the policy of appeasement, Li Peilin made a conclusion about this policy.

"Brother Zong, why do you say that?"

"My lord, when I was in Liaodong and Beijing, I often heard my uncle say that all the hus outside the house, such as the hungry eagle, are far away when they are full. If you want this generation to obey, you need to be threatened, so that he is afraid in his dreams, and then tempt him to make profits, promise heavy profits, and trade the grain, cloth, salt, tea and other things of the Central Plains for the products of his tribe, so that he can control the foreign Hu. Now, our army's armor is unfavorable, and it is not like cutting meat to feed a tiger with wealth and goods. ”

"Not to mention that the officials who handle it up and down and make a fortune; If I am Taiji, Outer Mongolia, I will inevitably open my mouth and ask for a large amount of rewards, and ask to open a border market to buy grain, rice, cloth, salt, pig iron and other things. Then, it was sold to Liaodong Jiannu for huge profits. ”

"If I don't satisfy my desires, then there is a risk of defecting to Jiannu, just imagine, will Daming try his best to meet the requirements of this generation?"

"My lord, you also saw it just now, all over my Ming Dynasty, floods and droughts are endless, and there is already chaos, so what strength do you have to meet the money and grain of Liaodong?"

"If the princes of the court cannot satisfy the greed of this generation, or ask questions, I dare to assert that this generation is bound to take risks. This person is a protégé of the Imperial History, so who is the candidate? Donglin rats! ”

Shouhan sighed secretly in his heart, don't underestimate the wisdom of the ancients! You must know that a few years later, Huang Taiji will wave his division into the customs, and at that time, it will be the Huangquan Road of Inspector Yuan, which is very close, and he will eat 3,600 knives at the entrance of the vegetable market.

talked about the political situation in the distance, naturally Chen Tianhua, Fu Bo, Wu Cunjie and others couldn't interject, and when the topic of the two relaxed a little, Chen Tianhua and others took over the topic.

"My lord, I have recently captured more than ten spies!"

The spies were mainly sent by the Ruan family in the south and the Zheng family in the north. For a political force or military group that suddenly broke out under his nose, no political force would sit idly by.

In particular, the expansion of this force is unusually rapid.

"During the period when the adults went to Luzon, nearly 30,000 immigrants from Fujian and Guangdong provinces flowed into the Ha Tinh area, including nearly 20,000 Zhuangding. The subordinates separated the strong men among these people, and the rest of them were ordered to recuperate in various immigration camps and do some odd jobs. ”

This is the result of Li Shouhan and Li Peilin's immigration plan. Under the temptation of "I will only sue you alone", people emigrated to the Ha Tinh area in large numbers, preparing to cultivate the 50 acres of land that belonged to them.

When the strong men received military training in the training camp and waved their arms for queue training, they thought of the distant land; When I wielded the sword, I thought of the distant land.

Alas! I didn't expect a small technical means to have such an effect. Shouhan looked at the expense book of immigrants, and his heart ached a little.

There is no way, every immigrant, except for the expenses on the road, is his own way, when he arrives at Hongji Port in Ha Tinh, as long as he is not physically sick, then his rations and accommodation will be borne by the general's mansion. Not to mention the rations during the training of the strong men.

In the future, after going to the Shui Chenla area to open up the wasteland, Li Shouhan would have to bear all the expenses such as rations, tools, seeds, weapons, buffaloes, and houses within three years.

If it weren't for the support of trade income from gold-absorbing tools such as salt and sugar, I am afraid that Li Shouhan would also be on the verge of bankruptcy.

"These people can be organized into thirty infantry battalions, and if they go south or north, the Ruan family in the south and the Zheng family in the north will have to think about how to deal with it. Moreover, the fact that our caravans, carrying salt and cloth, went south and north, also attracted the attention of these two families. ”

While Li Shouhan's refined salt brought him amazing profits, it also attracted the attention of Zheng Jie in the north and Nguyen Phuc Yuan in the south. Although refined salt has brought convenience to himself, at the same time, a large outflow of gold and silver is also something that no ruler wants to see.

"It's not just the forces of the North and the South. Guangxi in the northeast also has action. ”

Talking about the concerns of all parties, Li Peilin also took out an official document.

"This is a joint letter issued by the governor of Guangxi and the chief soldier, asking why after the previous garrison of the Qianhu Institute became vacant, the current garrison did not go to the chief soldier and the governor's yamen to report and receive the seal? Instead, do you do it yourself? is so privately taught and received, and you still say that it is not my Ming official? ”

"How did Guangxi notice us?" Shouhan was a little surprised, to say that the Ruan family and the Zheng family noticed, then that's fine, after all, there are caravans going back and forth between the north and the south, and he is also connected to these two families by land.

However, Guangxi is separated by the sea!

"My lord, our ships can go to the north to traffic salt, why can't the ships from Guangxi come to Hongji? After all, Hongji is only a few hundred miles away from Beihai, Lianzhou and other ports, and our mill has already been squeezed, so we need a large amount of sugarcane, and these people are transported from the south, and when they go north, they just bring back salt catties and white sugar. ”

Li Peilin smiled bitterly, you must know that Guangxi is also short of salt, when he learned that there was a place not far away that could provide refined salt, how could those businessmen not rush to it? What's more, there is also the white sugar like snow, which one is not something that can make people's eyes shine? When the merchant learned of this source, it was like a fly seeing blood! Soon, when the merchants learned that the salt was guarded by the guards of my Ming Dynasty, almost everyone began to use their brains.

How many of the big businessmen of this era have no official background?

Hence this text.

"Fortunately, it's just a test of the water, if we show too weakness, they will have countless backhands waiting, what to reprimand, dismissal, defense, etc., the purpose is to seize this salt source."

Li Peilin knows a lot about the filthiness of these officialdoms, and he broke through the sky in one sentence.
