In fact, if Gao Ming was not the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, maybe he would still be thinking about using salt to make some money.

But now from the perspective of the prince, Gao Ming knows very well in his heart that although it is necessary to make money, salt must not be used to squeeze the people, otherwise a large number of illegal salt dealers will definitely be born.

Huang Chao, the leader of the rebel army who shook the foundation of the Tang Dynasty in history, sold smuggled salt for his ancestors, which not only obtained a lot of money, but also made the people more dissatisfied with the country and buried the root cause of turmoil.

Therefore, in order to prevent these problems from occurring in the future, Gao Ming decided to reduce the price of salt in the entire Datang as soon as possible.

As long as this goal can be achieved, even if it allows the merchant to make more money.

However, this is only temporary, and as soon as the salt buying boom brought by the people around Jinzhou City passes, Gao Ming will vacate it and send people to transport salt to all parts of the country to supply the people of Datang at the lowest price of one dollar per catty.

At that time, it will be truly realized that everyone can afford to eat salt, so that salt, a daily necessity, will no longer be a burden on the people of Datang.

Tian Yi was originally just a businessman, and he didn't quite understand many things in politics, but he recognized one thing, that is, what Gao Ming asked him to do, he would do it!

"His Royal Highness the Prince, what you said about Weichen has understood, Weichen will gather the big and small merchants of Jinzhou City tomorrow morning, and tell them His Highness's intentions, it is not early, Weichen will not disturb His Highness's rest, so he will retire first!"

"Well, go ahead!"

Seeing Gao Ming nodding, Tian Yi hurriedly bowed to him, and then slowly retreated.

Li Goudan has been guarding the door, and after waiting for Tian Yi immediately, he walked in with a smile on his face, and then bowed respectfully towards Gao Ming.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, Weichen has already asked people to prepare meals and hot water, and asked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Meng Fengyi to move."

Hearing his words, Gao Ming immediately nodded.

"Well, I'm tired."

"Don't dare!"

Looking at Li Goudan's cautious look, Gao Ming immediately smiled and shook his head.

"I used to hear people say that the longer an official does it, the less courage he becomes, at first I didn't quite understand, but now that I see you, I finally understand, haha!"

Li Goudan could hear that Gao Ming was joking with him, and he quickly gave a smile.

"Hey...... What His Royal Highness said is that Wei Chen has always remembered what His Royal Highness said at the beginning, and he has always been trembling and walking on thin ice as an official, no matter how much he carries, lest he live up to His Highness's trust. ”

"Huh?"

Hearing Li Goudan repeat his original words, Gao Ming's eyes suddenly flashed with a hint of surprise.

"That's what I said last year, right? I didn't expect you to remember it now, not bad! ”

Speaking of this, Gao Ming immediately patted Li Shimin on the shoulder.

"Dog, as long as you can firmly remember what you just said and put it into action, then the history of assassination will not be the end of your career, do you understand what I mean?"

"Yes, Weichen understands!"

As soon as Gao Ming's words fell, Li Goudan immediately nodded, and then respectfully saluted Gao Ming.

Looking at this scene, Gao Ming nodded with satisfaction, and then pulled Meng Xin to the backyard.

Gao Ming was also very tired on this day, and he hadn't rested well after rocking around on the boat for the past few days, so after dinner, Gao Ming took Meng Xin to rest.

When Gao Ming woke up the next day, it was already noon.

Seeing Gao Ming open his eyes, Meng Xin, who was guarding next to him, immediately laughed.

"Your Highness can be regarded as awake, but the eldest grandson of the emperor has been waiting at the door all morning!"

Hearing Meng Xin's words, Gao Ming immediately blinked in surprise.

"Li Xiang is here? Let him in! ”

"Yes!"

After receiving Gao Ming's orders, Meng Xin went out and brought Li Xiang in.

After Li Xiang came in, he looked at Gao Ming, who was getting dressed, and walked up respectfully and saluted.

"The boy has said goodbye to his father!"

"Good!"

After Gao Ming put on his clothes, he touched Li Xiang's head by the way, and then smiled at him.

"Xiang'er, you've been in Jinju for more than half a year, how do you feel? Are you used to it? ”

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Li Xiang immediately laughed.

"Thank you father for your concern, the gentlemen in the Royal Academy are very good, although they don't know the identity of the child, but they are very good children, there are still many friends in the academy, and the child is very happy here."

Hearing Li Xiang's words, Gao Ming smiled again and nodded.

"Well, that's good, you have to continue to study seriously in the future, but you can't read dead books, you have to know how to live and learn, what is taught in the academy is what is in books, and things other than books need you to learn by yourself, understand?"

"Yes, follow the teachings of my father!"

Looking at Li Xiang's well-behaved appearance, Gao Ming's lips moved, but he didn't say anything.

After being silent for a while, he patted Li Xiang on the shoulder.

"Okay, I won't say more, let's go, come to dinner with me, we haven't eaten together for a long time."

After speaking, Gao Ming pulled Li Xiang's, and then walked in the direction of the dining room.

When he was on the road, Gao Ming quietly observed this Li Xiang and found that he was also secretly looking at himself, and at the same time there was a bit of joy on his face that could not be concealed.

Seeing this scene, the corners of Gao Ming's mouth slowly rose.

"Although this kid pretends to be mature, he is still a ten-year-old little guy, and after coming to Jinzhou, he doesn't seem to be so rigid in Chang'an, it seems that he came to Jinzhou to come to the right place."

Thinking of this, Gao Ming secretly made a decision, and in a few years, he would also send Li Ju over, and then he would be able to let Xiaoniang and Li Goudan see each other more, after all, she was someone's daughter.

After lunch, Gao Ming took Meng Xin and Li Xiang to the street.

After leaving the Assassin's Mansion, Gao Ming put on a big hat, and there was a black veil hanging around the hat, just like a martial arts knight.

Of course, Gao Ming did not do this to play a hero, but because he was too famous in Jinju, and if he didn't wear such a hat, he would probably be recognized immediately.

Fortunately, it is now summer, and there have been a few rains in the past two days, and there are many people wearing hats on the street, so Gao Ming's outfit is not too abrupt.

The people wandered around the street for an afternoon, until Gao Ming was really tired, and then took Meng Xin and them back to the Assassin's Mansion.

However, looking at Meng Xin's unfinished face, Gao Ming knew that she was not finished happy, and he immediately showed a wry smile.

"Xin'er, we'll stay for another day tomorrow, so you don't have to worry, so let's do it, I won't go with you tomorrow, let the aunt of the dog egg family accompany you, how about it?"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Meng Xin became happy, and she immediately nodded vigorously towards Gao Ming.

"Hmm!"
