In the East Palace, Li Chengqian sat in the first place, and Qin Hao and Yu Zhining sat on his left and right sides respectively, but basically Li Chengqian had no use except for pretending to be deep and nodding at the end, so he had to point to Qin Hao to talk.

As for Yu Zhining? This rotten Confucian had better shut up, otherwise Qin Hao was really afraid that something bad would happen to him.

It's also funny to say, although the Ministry of Rites is now discussing Qin Hao's title, at least now it is only a white body on the surface, but such a white body, but he sits in a position above the big guys in a grand manner, but no one feels uncomfortable, at least in the East Palace, everyone actually thinks this is quite normal.

And the same words, coming out of Qin Hao's mouth, seemed so shocking.

The salt introduction crisis is related to the foundation of the imperial court, and the most appropriate way to deal with it is, of course, to take back the salt introduction, and if you want to take back this thing, you must have money, everyone is ready to be slaughtered by the imperial court, as long as they don't let them take out too much, they are still willing to share a little worry for the imperial court.

But what is Qin Hao asking for with his mouth? Don't make more? This is crazy! Is there anything else that can't be made here?

If these words come out of someone else's mouth, they are either crazy or stupid, but if they come out of Qin Hao's mouth, it will be a bit earth-shattering, what kind of person is this? The God of Wealth of the Tang Dynasty! In the past two years, the shot has always been imaginative, and in the end he can make a lot of money, and he made a lot of money in the end, and he made this salt lead, and the prince has been abnormally opposed in the past six months, who believes that he has no back hands here.

As a result, all the bigwigs suddenly became suspicious, and Cheng Yanjin sent a smooth assist: "Qin Xiaolangjun, His Royal Highness the Prince, now that the salt has depreciated, it has shaken the country's capital, I don't know where the meaning of this earning word comes from?" ”

Qin Hao smiled: "It's very simple, now the salt of a stone of salt can only be estimated by two buckets, and now this errand is handed over to me, it will inevitably recover its value within a month, the remaining price difference in the middle, but there are enough eight buckets of salt, the profit in a month has increased fivefold, is there a more profitable business in the world?" ”

"So I hope you guys, make a little less, now most of this salt is in the hands of the soldiers, they all eat with their heads, you have to know how much you earn, they have to lose a lot, they, for my Tang Dynasty to throw their heads and spill blood, finally made some money, can you bear to exploit them?"

Now that this salt is low to this point, the fool also knows that the imperial court will definitely give an explanation, so the vast majority of the salt is actually still in the hands of the government soldiers and has not been sold, it is really sold at a value of 20%, and they are unwilling.

Thanks to the fact that there are no people selling it now, otherwise it is estimated that the value of this salt is not even ten percent.

"Qin Langzhong, is it so big?"

Qin Hao smiled and said, "It's not small, the prince wants to make a rule with you today, use eighty percent of the money to collect salt, and make a small profit of two percent, we don't care, but if anyone uses a lower amount to collect, don't blame waiting for the saint to come back, let's go make a small report." ”

Everyone laughed and said: "How can we, how can we, how can we scrape the money of those big-headed soldiers, this person's heart is flesh and blood." ”

"yes, yes."

"Don't say 20%, even 90% I can't make this money, who of us here is still short of money?"

This is also the reason why Qin Hao deliberately neglected these elders, if he put on a bitter gourd face, according to Yu Zhining's ideas, he would persuade people or something, and ensure that these people would act like they would deal with it.

On the contrary, as soon as he said this today, he guaranteed that they would also collect the salt by stealing, whether it was really by eight buckets or secretly by pressing a few buckets, as long as they were collected, the salt would rise back.

When the meeting was over and everyone was gone, Cheng Yanjin secretly ran over to Qin Hao and asked, "Virtuous nephew, you give Uncle a solid truth, how do you ensure that it returns to stability." ”

Qin Hao also whispered to Cheng Yanjin in a sly manner: "Uncle is my own person, then I won't hide it from my uncle, Fang Xiang has agreed, when the autumn harvest is next year, the people can use salt to replace the silk cloth in the rent, not to mention anything else, just this one, do you think the price of this salt will not rise back?" But uncle, don't talk nonsense, let alone ask the prime minister, there are too many such major things involved, and you have to keep it secret for a day before you go to the province. ”

Cheng Yanjin's eyes widened as big as copper bells when he heard this, and even his breathing became a little heavier.

Rent adjustment was the basic system for maintaining social stability in the early Tang Dynasty. The reason why the common people pay grain for rent, pay silk linen cloth for mediocrity, and serve labor for the tune, the reason why silk cloth is handed over is because silk cloth can be used as currency in the Tang Dynasty.

So, Cheng Biting Jin, who got the answer to the question, laughed and left, Qin Hao looked at his seemingly rough back and smiled, this Cheng Biting Jin looked rough and thin, he should know the truth of eating alone and not getting fat, if he thinks about it, he can't use it for a day, and the rest of them will know it.

It wasn't until Cheng Biting Jin left that Yu Zhining said with a constipated face: "Qin Langzhong, what they promised is to wait until you stabilize the salt introduction at a full catty, and the market recognizes that the salt introduction and silk cloth can be used as gold and silver, and then you will consider replacing yong with salt, you tell Lu Guogong so... ”

Qin Hao glanced at him and said, "What, is Yu Shuzi not confident in me, or is he not confident in the prince?" ”

Yu Zhining's face turned red, and he said angrily: "Is this a matter of faith or disbelief? You're just talking! Not a gentleman's way! Such a major matter of governing the country must be corrected, how can you be so foolish? ”

Qin Hao shrugged his shoulders and sneered: "I heard that whether it is a black cat or a white cat, it is a good cat to catch a mouse, your old man is a gentleman enough, but do you have a way to make the value of salt rise back?" To put it mildly, if this matter is up to you, it is estimated that this salt will become waste paper in less than half a month. ”

"You...... You're a fallacy! ”

"Am I a crooked? Your Royal Highness, Yu Shuzi's knowledge and character can be said to be few people in my Tang Dynasty, you follow him to learn, you must work hard, but, Yu Shuzi's pedantry is also unmatched in my Tang Dynasty, you must distinguish clearly when you learn from him, governing the world, after all, you still have to rely on the results to speak, history is written by the victors, the process of embellishment is always more useful than the results of embellishment, you can take caution. ”

Li Chengqian listened, and nodded unconsciously, at this time he was not the original history, he didn't know anything in the original history, he was controlled by Yu Zhining all day long, can he not be rebellious, but now, he follows Qin Hao can be regarded as having gained knowledge, and from the bottom of his heart, he feels that Qin Hao is the pillar of the country, Yu Zhining's generation, rotten Confucian, although he still respects him in his heart, but he already has his own rational judgment, but he is not as disgusted with Zhining as in the original history.

On the contrary, it was Yu Zhining, seeing that Qin Hao actually dared to mislead the country, especially Li Chengqian, who dared to nod slightly, he couldn't help but be furious, and he rolled up his arms and sleeves to desperately scare Qin Hao so that Qin Hao ran away, and Li Chengqian also hurriedly hugged Yu Zhining to pull the fight.

"Hahaha, I don't have the time to quarrel with you, I'm going to do something big."
