Chapter 130: Dealers

The news from the saint has not yet been received, and Jia Lian has another batch of salt here. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

In less than two months, the news that the imperial court had produced more than 400,000 catties of salt spread all over the south of the Yangtze River, and Jia Lian's words before were also known to everyone.

Even not only in the Jiangnan area, the news began to spread to the whole country with Jiangnan as the center at a very rapid speed.

The speed of the illegal salt hoarded in the hands has accelerated, and the price of illegal salt has begun to continue to fall.

The situation in Jiangnan also began to become very delicate at this time.

Originally, the middle-class merchants and low-end merchants who were watching from the sidelines wanted to make trouble, but the officials at the top who smelled a different smell and the merchants with strong net worth took action one after another, and the people who wanted to deal with Lin Ruhai and Jia Lian were either warned or beaten, or directly pulled off the horse.

After all, for a powerful person like them, such a policy is like the government itself stepping in to wipe out those middle-class and low-class smugglers.

Even if you haven't done this before, you are excited to hear the news.

Heroes come out of troubled times, and this saying is as common in the business world as it gets.

There is not a strong strength, and the brain is flexible. Knowing that the situation was uncontrollable, he also sold the salt in his hand as soon as possible.

In addition to the four princes and princes, Emperor Daxuan also has three princes, Prince Zhongshun, five princes and Prince Shun, nine princes King Beijing, ten princes Shuncheng and the youngest, only a few years old eighteen princes King Yingcheng.

Not to mention the youngest, the prince is upright and upright, he doesn't know how to be flexible, and the supporters in the court are not right, which is why the emperor reassures him.

And Prince Zhongshun and Prince Heshun, who are compatriots of the same mother, have many supporters openly and secretly because of the strength of the maternal family and the favor of the emperor. Although the emperor favored these two, because of their maternal clan and violent personality, he did not want the two to ascend the throne.

And King Beijing and King Shuncheng are not very important in front of the emperor compared to the two brothers of Prince Zhongshun.

So......

......

......

"Don't think!"

His face was pale, and the emperor threw the fold in his hand onto the imperial case.

The matter of Jiangnan has just come back with a letter, and even before he directly announced it in the court, the excerpt played below has already been handed over.

They don't know if the price is high, but everyone can see how big this cake is.

It was who would make the cake and divide it, and there was a disagreement.

The initiative is in your own hands and in the hands of others, these are completely two different concepts.

And his sons are undoubtedly anxious.

It should be said that the monkey should not be in a hurry, and the monkey should not be in a hurry.

The prince seems to have nothing to do with himself, and he still has to do what he should do, but another son who is in confinement has heard about it. Spies and staff members are even more explicit, and countless are sent out.

Nearly half of the two folds on the imperial case are to be presided over by Prince Zhongshun and Prince Shun.

And the mention of the crown prince is very small.

The emperor sat on the dragon chair with a gray face, looking at the folds on the imperial case in a daze.

The first prince incident folded into his several sons, and now he doesn't want to send white-haired people to black-haired people anymore.

Especially this predictable fratricidal cannibalism.

But this matter is not a good errand to some extent, because there are only so many places, and if you favor one over the other, it will inevitably attract people's handles.

The crown prince is the prince, and his other sons are not very peaceful, so the emperor is very embarrassed.

If it's Lin Ruhai......

Lin Ruhai has lost his wife and children, and he is already a lonely minister, and he has worked hard for so many years, and he can't get over it in his heart.

And the others......

......

......

In the middle of October, the weather in Jiangnan is still warm, and with the accumulation of experience and the beauty of the sky, a batch of salt can now be harvested in almost eleven or twelve days.

It's just that he didn't get permission from the top, and Jia Lian was afraid of forcing some people too quickly, although the salt had been drying uninterruptedly, but the price was not adjusted.

And unexpected, reasonable.

Jia Lian and Lin Ruhai have more and more guests, the "little meaning" is getting richer and richer, and the audience in the salt field is coming more and more frequently.

Of course, the audience groups of Lin Ruhai and Jia Lian are still different.

Most of the people who go to Yangzhou are merchants or high-ranking officials, all of whom have abundant funds and deep backgrounds.

After all, Lin Ruhai is the emperor's confidant, which is obvious to all.

And those who go to Jinghai are basically those who are not so strong in capital or background, but vainly want to get a piece of the pie.

Merchants or officials.

Lin Ruhai and Jia Lian still did not refuse to come.

And for those merchants who are not so strong, Jia Lian also faintly reveals another meaning when the other party's "local specialties" are rich enough.

Bid, the highest bidder wins.

The price here is the agency fee, and the security deposit is a separate matter.

And if the funds are not abundant, Jia Lian didn't say much, and only silently performed several tricks that accumulated a lot.

In time. Everyone knew about it, and secretly began to make a difference.

On the winter solstice, the weather began to get colder, and the work of drying salt could no longer be carried out, and the will of the head finally came.

The people in the Kyoto court had a heated discussion on the new salt drying method in the south of the Yangtze River and the excerpts handed over by the imperial history of salt patrol "Lin Ruhai".

The final decision on whether the distribution rights should be assigned to local officials or by auction to select agents, and whether the old and new salt production laws should be replaced and promoted, was finally decided.

Distribution rights, bidding and selection of agents.

And the replacement of the old and new salt production methods.

There were many people waiting for the imperial court, and the emperor ordered that everyone recommend them, and selected forty people to go down to the south of the Yangtze River and go straight to Jinghai.

Jia Lian, the Tongzhi of Jinghai Zhizhou, was temporarily instructed and guided by the new salt drying method.

On the other hand, Wang Ziteng is responsible for bidding and selecting agents.

And Jia Lian's temporary appointment of Zhizhou also came to an end at this time.

From the person who had never given Jia Lian a gift, Cao Rende, the county magistrate of Hai'an County, Jinghai, was promoted.

And the Jingying Festival made Wang Ziteng, in order to avoid suspicion, he directly closed the door to thank the guests, and did not receive gifts for a whole year. Including the usual annual gifts between relatives and the filial piety of subordinates.

Jia Fu.

Jia Yu looked at the silver in the account of Gongzhong, which was now close to 200,000 taels, and wrote to his son again.

Previously, it was rumored in Beijing that Jia Lian went to Jinghai to investigate the Jinghai governor's affairs, and it was true to supervise and promote the new salt drying law.

But there was no news at home.

Even her brother-in-law Lin Ruhai didn't reveal the slightest news to them.

Jia Zheng is not calm, and even Jia Yu, his biological father, is not calm.

Originally, the Jia family didn't want to reach out for private salt, but at the beginning, Jia Daishan and the ancestor disagreed. Later, Mrs. Wang wanted to stretch out her hand, but Lin Ruhai wrote to Jia Zheng again.

But now......

There is Lin Ruhai Jia Lian in the south of the Yangtze River, and there is Wang Ziteng in Beijing.

They are not indisputable.

The New Year was approaching, and Jia Lian looked at the letter in his hand speechless.
