Fan Li said with a smile: "It's very simple, you only need to restrict the goods that the Han Kingdom does not have, but cannot lack, so that the Han Kingdom can be defeated!" ”

"Is there such a cargo? Grain? Now that the food supply of the Yue State is insufficient, it is even more impossible to supply the Han State, and if this restriction is useful, I am afraid that the Han State, which has been restricted for five or six months, will collapse long ago. Cloth? I'm afraid this is useless, it is said that Yang Zilu has let people plant ramie as early as last year, and it can be collected in August this year, and now it is July, and the restriction has no effect. Besides, in the past, the people of Shanyue did not lack cloth, and they didn't see anything! Gou Jian frowned, touched his beard and thought. But the answers proposed were rejected by himself one by one.

They also couldn't figure it out, what the Han Kingdom must need but they don't have.

Gou Jiansuo's surname asked Fan Li, who had been smiling: "Doctor Fan, you just say it directly!" Don't sell it! ”

Wen Chong also looked at Fan Li and said, "Fan Li, you can just say the answer, so as not to think nonsense here!" ”

"It's easy!" Fan Li's fingers dipped his fingers in the porcelain bowl and wrote a word on the mahogany floor.

Gou Jian, Wen Chong and other monarchs and ministers all widened their eyes, looked at the word written by Fan Li, and immediately laughed heartily. Gou Jian said while laughing: "Ha! Ha! Ha! Wonderful! Wonderful! It's wonderful! ”

"I'm not as good as Fan Li!" After Ku Cheng read the word written by Fan Li, he was even more willing to admit that he was inferior to Fan Li.

"Fan Li's plan can be said to have reached the highest level in Sun Tzu's mouth, a soldier who surrenders without a fight! also let Yang Zilu taste the 'wonders' in his master's mouth. Wen Chong stroked his long beard and said with a smile. The more he watched Fan Li write that word, the happier his mood became, and the happier he smiled.

What kind of words did Fan Li write to make Gou Jianjunchen, who was so worried about the Han Kingdom that his hair was almost white, so happy? In fact, it's just one word - salt!

As we all know, salt is one of the foods that people must eat, and without salt, people will have a lot of problems. The most direct is weakness of the limbs, loss of appetite, dizziness, and in severe cases, there will be limb spasms, anorexia, vomiting, rapid heart rate and other problems. It can cause many other diseases, and even if it does not cause other diseases, the weakness of just one limb is enough for a country to collapse.

Even a fully modern army, without salt replenishment for a long time, would probably be defeated by a barbarian in the Stone Age. Because they don't even have the strength to pull the trigger, and it's useless to hold a modern rifle, not to mention that the Han Kingdom is still in the era of cold weapons, this blow can be fatal.

After laughing, Fan Li reminded Gou Jian: "The Lord should not take this matter too lightly, and you need to beware of Han barbarians going out of the mountains to loot." However, the Han barbarians who have left the mountains are afraid that their combat effectiveness will be two or three out of ten, and the main thing is not too great, and the Han barbarians are not the opponents of the warriors of the Yue Kingdom! ”

Gou Jian heard the words and said with a smile: "This is nature!" However, the Han barbarians were able to defeat the warriors of the Yue Kingdom with the help of geographical advantages and sharp weapons. When they arrived on the plains, the widows would let the Han barbarians know the power of the military chariots to destroy the withering and decaying! The army of the Yue Kingdom is not so easy to deal with! ”

Fan Li also said with deep agreement: "If it weren't for the rugged mountains and the fact that the military vehicles couldn't be galloped, there would be a time when the Han barbarians were majestic!" ”

Next, the five monarchs and ministers discussed how to block the salt for a long time. And they didn't just blockade the Han country, but also the country of Gumi, which, like the Han state, was located inland. It was easy to block table salt, and in this era even the fields belonged to the monarch, and the seeds were provided by the state. If you want to buy a field, it is not impossible, but you have to buy a lot of land at a time, and it is from the nobles, and it does not matter at all. Otherwise, even if you have a lot of money and you can't see the nobles, how will they know that you are going to buy a lot of land?

Not to mention the sea salt, the sea salt of Yue Guo is naturally state-owned, and it is very easy to control. The Vietnamese people can supply it in limited quantities, even if some people want to smuggle it, it is difficult. In addition, the Wu side also increased the tariff on sea salt entering Vietnam, raising it to 100 yuan per catty of sea salt. Those businessmen are shrewd people, and they are willing to do this loss-making business. In this way, the Haiyan trade route between the Gu and Han countries was cut off.

As soon as the country was blocked, the price of sea salt in the Han country was to paraphrase an idiom, which was called immediate. The price of sea salt has soared from two dollars and one tael of sea salt to ten dollars and one tael of sea salt, and this momentum has been rising.

Gou Jian was not stupid, he was afraid that Yang Zilu would make trouble, so he took the lead in arranging 800 troops to garrison in Zhuji Chengyue. I'm afraid that Yang Zilu is unlikely to conquer Zhuji City if he wants to make trouble. Compared with the Han State, the fragile country of Gu Wei was even more unbearable, and the price of one or two sea salts in the country rose to fifteen yuan, and there was also a situation where there was no market for the price.

…… Jiukui City ......

"Despicable!" Yang Zilu slammed his fist on the armrest of the wooden chair made of golden silk nanmu.

Yu Miao, who was promoted to the next doctor by Yang Zilu because of his excellent business, said with a wry smile: "Lord, although Gou Jian is despicable, I have to say that he is still at the heart of my Han Kingdom!" ”

At this time, Ou Bijiang, who was also promoted by Yang Zilu to the next doctor, walked into the hall, his face was ugly, as if he was smeared with a layer of black ash.

Seeing this, Yang Zilu's heart tightened and asked, "How is it?" ”

Ou Bijiang took a deep breath and said helplessly: "Lord, I'm afraid it will not be easy to pass this time, Chenou Bijiang has just received news that Yue Guo has not only blocked the sea salt trade at the Han-Vietnam border pass. And on the Wu-Vietnam border, the tariff on sea salt was raised to 100 yuan per pound of sea salt. Moreover, this sea salt has entered the Yue Kingdom, whether it can be smuggled to the Han Kingdom is still two words! ”

"Lord, let me lead the army! Teach Gou Jian that Wu Guonu knows that my Han Kingdom is not easy to bully! The black bear's jaw was spread out, like an angry lion, and shouted.

Kan Pingtian, who had just returned from Wu, was also quite helpless, and Fan Li's plan could be said to have really pinched the seven inches of Han. Even if he Kan Pingtian is reborn by Jiang Taigong, he can't conjure sea salt out of thin air!

". ! He didn't give me sea salt! Then I, Hanguo, will go and get it myself! Yang Zilu gritted his teeth and said.

Kan Pingtian was shocked when he heard this, and said in a lost voice: "The Lord can't!" Now my Han Kingdom is not an opponent of the Yue Kingdom! With the miasma of the mountains and rivers of the Han Kingdom, Li Shang can be matched, and he has reached the plains! I'm afraid I'm in the middle of it! ”

When the black bear heard this, he immediately glared at Kan Pingtian, and said dissatisfiedly: "Then according to you, you are stupid and waiting to die?" ”

Yang Zilu shook his head and said confidently: "I'm not that stupid!" Except for Yueguo, is there no sea salt in other places? ”

PS: The fifth update is here! I'm afraid the remaining two watches won't be able to come out until seven or eight o'clock in the evening.
