Chapter 11 was robbed of the salt-making technique by the Taiyuan Wang

A few hours ago, I was dreaming that chocolate and music were more compatible on a rainy day, but now I was pressed to the ground and gnawed mud on my mouth with blood on my face. However, if you look closely, the muddy eyes are seven or eight points similar to chocolate, but there is no sweetness of chocolate, nor the fragrance of earth, only fishy smell......

"Phew!"

Alas! I don't know which mischievous little baby happened to sprinkle a bubble here, and there was a smell of urine.

Liu Lao Er saw Wang Xingxin, who was pressed to the ground and kept howling, and he didn't know where he came from, with the courage and strength to push Wang Xingxin away, help Wang Xingxin to wipe the blood on his face with tears in his eyes.

"The old and young masters are all here, protect the new baby, and beat people, is there any heavenly reason, is there no royal law! Is this still the Tang Dynasty under the rule of a saint? ”

The villagers angrily held sticks, looked at Wang Xingxin with hoes, and looked at the sad Wang Xingxin, and turned their hateful eyes on Wang Gui and his party.

"Roar! It's really a poor mountain and a bad water, how do you want to rebel? Do you know how much of a sin it is to fornicate with the Turks and the Western Regions? That's going to wipe out the race! How? You want to shield this Turkic spy! ”

"You talk nonsense! Xinwazi is not a Turkic spy, he is a villager in Yuanlou Village, Lantian County, under the rule of my Datang, and he has a household registration as evidence! Even if you are a member of the Wang family, you can't frame it at will! ”

"Framing? Haha, does my Wang family still need to frame people? To say that it is a Turkic spy is a Turkic spy! Someone's coming! Arrest me, take me away, and interrogate me severely! ”

"Even if the interrogation is not for you to interrogate, it has to be interrogated by the government, why should you interrogate?"

"Official? It's funny! My royal family is the government! Do you know that in the Tang Dynasty, how many people in this Tang Dynasty County are officials of my Wang family? ”

Hearing this, Liu Laohan was silent. Yes! Taiyuan Wang's family, that's a behemoth. In this era of the family with five surnames and seven hopes, the Taiyuan royal family has to be a little afraid even today, not to mention that they are a few small people in the township.

"Uncle Liu, don't worry, it's not that we don't know what they want to do, it's just salt!"

"Humph! It seems that you are a person who understands! ”

"If you want salt, you can give it to you! Don't be hard for us! ”

"Is that what you say?"

"Yes, it's true that I said it doesn't count, but how many of you are now? How many of us can you watch now? Everyone in our village knows how to make salt! As long as you can run one, even if it's just a baby, you can spread this salt-making method all over the world! ”

Wang Gui was stunned for a moment, he only brought three people. Although this Yuanlou Village is small, there are more than 20 people, as long as one runs out, not only will you not get credit, but you may also cause trouble.

Now Wang Gui didn't know what to do.

Wang Xingxin took the opportunity to say: "This method of making salt was originally intended to be handed over to the government to benefit the people of the Tang Dynasty. Since you said that your royal family represents the government, why should this method of salt making be dedicated to you? I promise we won't sell a tael of refined salt again! This secret method belongs to your royal family, and it is your unique secret method, do you think this lord is good? ”

Wang Gui pondered for a while and said, "What guarantee do you have?" ”

Liu Haohan hurriedly said: "I am a Tang Dynasty man!" ”

Wang Gui couldn't think of a better way to keep it secret, so he had no choice but to accept it in the end. The method of making salt is simple and easy to learn, and the materials used are also very simple, as long as you know this principle, Wang Gui will remember it after reading it. Then Wang Xingxin ran to the firewood room and took out the silver cake placed under the bed and held it to Wang Gui and said: "This lord, your Wang family has a lot of adults, don't be difficult for the small people in our township, don't worry about us leaking secrets, we haven't lived enough!" You can't fight your royal family! This is part of the salt sold today, and it should be used as a carriage fare for adults! As for the rest, I won't give it to death! If not, one shot and two scattered! ”

After that, Wang Xingxin wanted to lie on the ground and stretch his neck like touching porcelain in modern times, as if he was saying to Wang Gui: You come to cut it! Let's cut it!

Wang Gui greedily took the one hundred and ten taels of silver cakes, and looked at Wang Xingxin lying on the ground with hatred, and forced Wang Xingxin and others to sign that they were not allowed to make refined salt for sale, and the method of making refined salt was the unique overlord contract of the Wang family, and then left Yuanlou Village.

After rushing all the way to Chang'an City, Wang Gui came to the small courtyard full of chrysanthemums.

"Young master, this fine salt matter has been done in a small way, and there is a slight change in the middle, please report to you in a small way."

"Say it! If you do it well, you will be rewarded! ”

Wang Guifen told Wang Jianfei what had happened, but he hid the silver cake that Wang Xingxin gave him.

"Wang Gui, you did a good job! The short-haired kid you're talking about is a sensible person! My Datang is so big, there are not many strange people. You don't have to pay attention to the other people, it's just that this short-haired kid is staring at the point, and maybe there will be some whimsical ideas. ”

"Yes! The little ones get it. This arranges for people to stare! ”

"Also, since this kid wants to hand over this method of salt production to the imperial court, this is a wise move. It's just a step too late, if you hadn't met the person who sold salt yesterday, you must have that this method of making salt now doesn't belong to our Wang family, to be exact, it doesn't belong to Master Ben and me! ”

"This is the young master's good luck, this is where the young master's fortune lies!"

"Haha, your young master is comfortable! Alas! This young master is the second in line! There's a big brother up there, big brother? What a big brother! Look what you're fighting with me this time! ”

When Wang Gui heard this, he was so frightened that he lowered his head and almost clamped it in his crotch.

"Wang Gui! You said that Young Master Ben wants to dedicate this method of salt making to the imperial court? Or do you want to use this method of salt production to make money? ”

"Young master, how do you decide which one is the one who can interject. As long as the young master arranges for the little ones to do things well, the other little ones don't dare to think about it. ”

"Don't be afraid, the young master knows what you do with your heart, so let's go down and receive a reward of 100 yuan! Young Master Rong Ben thought about this matter, and remembered that this matter should not be told to anyone except the people you brought, if anyone reveals the slightest tone, hum! You know the consequences! “

"Yes! The little one understands! Young master rest assured, the people brought out today are all loyal to the young master, my Wang Gui and their net worth and life are all on the young master, and I am still counting on the young master to fly Huang Tengda and follow the young master to be prosperous and rich! ”

"Okay, go down, remember to keep an eye on the kid after receiving the reward, and report back if there is any movement. Since that kid is interested, let it go first. ”

After Wang Gui retreated, Wang Jianfei looked at the chrysanthemums in the garden and began to ponder. He wants to say that he wants to benefit the most, and what Wang Xingxin said will be handed over to the government gave him some enlightenment. Although this Wang Jianfei is the head of the Wang family, he also has an elder brother above him, and his brother is not useless, and now he has taken over a large part of the Wang family's industry, and he is a well-educated person, and he has also won the imperial examination. His position as the second young master became more and more unstable, and Wang Jianfei, who had been pressed by his eldest brother, was unconvinced.

Since you get this method of making salt, if you make salt yourself, although it is very profitable, but there is still the entire Wang family, maybe you have to share the profits with others, but if it is handed over to the imperial court, you may get greater benefits with the influence of the Wang family!

After thinking about it, Wang Jianfei immediately went to see his grandfather, Wang Gui, who is now the patriarch of the Taiyuan Wang clan. This Wang Guizi uncle is the grandson of the Southern Liang Shangshu Ling Wang Seng Debate. During the reign of Emperor Wen of Sui, he was awarded the title of Taichang Zhililang. Later, because he was implicated by his uncle Wang Jun, he fled to Zhongnanshan. After the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, he was Li Jiancheng's confidant, and after the Xuanwu Gate time, Li Er ascended the throne and recalled Wang Gui to the court as a counselor, and later served as an acting servant, and was knighted as the Duke of Yongning County. He was the leading figure of the Taiyuan royal family in the imperial court.

However, Wang Xingxin, who was in Yuanlou Village, was now lying on the bed in the firewood room, with unknown herbs on his face. was wailing, not just for the pain, but because he felt that in the medical environment of Datang, this whip would definitely disfigure him! Originally, he didn't look very handsome, but now there is another whip mark, how to find a beautiful mother-in-law!

Liu Lao Er also looked at the wailing Wang Xingxin in the firewood room and sighed! Wang Xingxin's wail made Liu Laohan more and more upset! "New baby, you're howling! If you apply herbs, your face will scar in a few days, and the seven-foot man can't bear this pain! The howling upset the old man! Don't scream! ”

"I'm Uncle Di! Do you know that the kid is disfigured! I can't find my mother-in-law! ”

"It's still a mother-in-law! I still want to be a mother-in-law! Think about what to do now! Your mother-in-law is indispensable! The old man will ask someone to tell you about his mother-in-law tomorrow! “

"Don't, don't, the kid doesn't want his mother-in-law, this mother-in-law or the kid should find it himself, uncle, don't want the boy to find the mother-in-law!"

The old man and the young are still in the mood to talk about their mother-in-law, and Liu Gangzi and Da Niu, who were standing on the side, stomped their feet anxiously.

Looking at the anxious two, Wang Xingxin covered his face and sat up and said to the three of them: "Salt can never be made anymore, even if it is made, it is only to make some salt for our own use, and we must not sell it." Now we still have silver. I gave the dog thief about 100 taels, and we still have more than 300 taels left from selling salt this time, plus some I saved before, and now I have about 400 taels of silver. took out half of the two hundred taels, and divided them among the families, just forty taels of silver for each family, after all, everyone has worked hard recently. The rest of the boys are used to build houses, and the little maid doesn't buy them, so let's farm and live. As for what to do to make a living, I don't dare to make a new baby! This time it's disfigured, maybe next time it's going to be fatal! ”

Liu Laohan rolled his eyes and said to Liu Gangzi and Da Niu: "You two are very anxious, no matter what, you want peace now!" The two of you hurry back and tell everyone that the old man will come to the silver later, and then discuss what to do in the future! ”

After Liu Gangzi and Da Niu left, Liu Laohan looked at Wang Xinxing and said, "The two of you are gone, what do you think about your baby, tell Lao Han quickly." ”

"What can Uncle Liu think? The refined salt is gone, and we have other things that I didn't tell you. Now we are not short of money and grain, after the field is divided, we will go to Chang'an City to buy some food utensils. This looks like it's going to be winter, even if you divide the field, you can't plant it, this winter we will be a cat winter! Right! We don't go anywhere in the village in winter, we eat and drink well every day, and we will farm well in the spring. As for making a living, the kid has his own plans, and the master doesn't have to worry about it. ”

Listening to Wang Xingxin's words, Liu Lao Er was no longer worried, and then went to the toilet with Wang Xingxin to dig up silver. After digging out all the silver in the latrine, looking at the silver cake that was still stained with some wet soil, Liu Laohan asked puzzledly: "New baby, why does the old man smell this silver and smell of urine......
