"You're going to sell smuggled salt?"

The old lady's always calm and calm face finally showed a look of surprise, she took the snow-white granular fine powder wrapped in a cloth bag handed over by Yue Yang, hesitated for a moment, then stretched out her finger and put her finger into her mouth after dipping it in the fine powder, and suddenly a salty taste entered her taste buds.

At this time, the old lady finally couldn't calm down, and almost cried out in a lost voice: "This ...... Is this green salt? No, it's not green salt, it's well salt? No, what kind of salt is this? ”

Yue Yang on the side solved the mystery in the old lady's heart, "Grandma, don't guess, this is Haiyan!" ”

"Sea Salt...... That's impossible! The taste of sea salt could never be so delicate and pure! The old lady shook her head.

Generally speaking, there are three types of salt in China: green salt, well salt and sea salt. Green salt, also known as lake salt, is the salt directly extracted from the salt lake and the salt lake brine as raw material in the salt field made of salt, most of which is produced in Qinghai and other places, and the well salt is pumped from the underground brine (naturally formed or generated after the salt mine is injected with water) by drilling wells, and the salt made is called well salt. As the name suggests, sea salt is the salt obtained by drying seawater.

Among the three types of salt, green salt and well salt can only be used by the wealthy and gentry due to their small production and high price, while the output of sea salt is very large, after all, you can have as much seawater as you want, as long as you use it to boil. However, sea salt has a disadvantage, that is, due to the backwardness of ancient seawater purification technology and salt drying technology, there are many impurities in the sea salt that is made from zuò, and the salt mixed with small stones, soil and other debris does not taste very good, bitter and astringent, but because the price is relatively cheap, it is also the main practical salt for the majority of people. And now Yue Yang took out a bag of snow-white and delicate table salt and said it was sea salt, how could the old lady believe it? This is simply subverting common sense!

"Grandma, it's true, it's really sea salt." Yue Yang laughed, this bag of salt was the salt he bought from the modern time and space, both in terms of appearance and nutritional value, it was naturally ten times better than the edible salt in this time and space.

"Grandma, my grandson has been thinking about it for a while, since the group exercise, our stall is getting bigger and bigger, and the expenses are getting more and more, and it is not possible to have a stable source of silver, so my grandson thought of selling illicit salt. Anyway, the Wang family and we have already formed a mortal enmity, so let's just steal his job without doing anything, I want to see what Wang Shoucheng can do with us? ”

"Do you really want to sell illicit salt?" The old lady was once stunned by the bold idea of her grandson, and she smiled bitterly, this grandson is going to force the Wang family to death.

The old lady looked at Yue Yang and said earnestly: "Grandson, grandma knows that you are a capable person, and grandma doesn't ask you where you got this salt, but you have to think clearly, if you really want to do this, then our family and the Wang family really have no room for relaxation." ”

Yue Yang sneered: "Grandma, since the moment when Wang Chenglin was about to kill his grandson in Baihualou, there was no room for relaxation between us and the Wang family. ”

Hearing Yue Yang bring up the old story again, the old lady's eyes also narrowed, and a cold light shot out. Yes, since the day when the Wang family was about to cut off the roots of the Yue family, there was no room for relaxation between the two of Wang Yue.

"Grandson, since you have already made your decision, go for it. But you have to remember, since you have made up your mind, then don't be soft, if the weeds can't be burned, it will be annoying! The old lady's gloomy voice sounded, but it startled Yue Yang, until he said goodbye to the old lady, he still felt in his heart that this old lady deserved to be a cow who could keep Yuejiazhuang for so many years, and he would not be soft at all when he should start!

When Yue Yang left here, the determination in his heart was a little stronger......

October 21, the fifth year of Chongzhen, Yingzhou City

Jiang Laohan is a native of Yingzhou City, and he opened a small restaurant in the west of Yingzhou City. Although this restaurant is not big, it has been in existence for a long time, as early as the Zhengde period, this restaurant has been stored in zài. After Jiang Laohan took over the restaurant from his father, he has been operating it for nearly 20 years and has won a lot of reputation in the west of the city.

It's just that these days, Jiang Laohan has encountered some troubles.

At noon, Jiang Laohan's mother-in-law walked in with a basket on her arm, and shouted as soon as she entered the door: "Boss, I went to buy salt today, but the price of salt has risen again, how can I get it like this!" ”

Jiang Laohan's heart tightened when he heard this, and he hurriedly asked, "What?" The price of salt has risen again, and now how much is a pound of silver? ”

Jiang Laohan's mother-in-law said with an indignant face: "The current price of salt has risen to three hundred Wen, I heard that it will rise in a few days, the master, how do you say you will live this day in the future!" With that, she placed the basket in her hand heavily on the table beside her, and let out a low, muffled sound.

"Let me see!" Jiang Laohan's expression froze, and he reached out and lifted the coarse cloth on the basket, revealing the yellow-white coarse salt inside the basket. Jiang Laohan stretched out his hand and grabbed a handful of coarse salt, his brows furrowed so hard, and he asked with a stern expression: "Why is there a lot more sand and soil mixed with sea salt this time than last time?" ”

"I don't know much about that!" Jiang Laohan's mother-in-law replied with some embarrassment: "I also asked Ershun who sold salt, Ershun said that these days due to the siege of thieves, the salt from outside cannot be transported in, so the price has risen a lot, and Ershun also said that he saw the shopkeeper quietly mixing sand into the salt at night." ”

"Bastard!" Jiang Laohan slapped the table heavily and said angrily: "This Wang family, conscience is simply eaten by dogs!" There was a lot of sand in these sea salts, and we had to filter them once we bought them, and each time they filtered out about 10% of the soil and sand, but they poured it well, not only did they raise the price, but they also mixed sand with the salt, are they still human? ”

"yes, that's what I said." Jiang Laohan's mother-in-law's originally simple face also showed a trace of indignation, "But Ershun said that this time the thieves attacked the city, and the Wang family lost a lot of silver, so the head of the Wang family personally ordered him to do this!" ”

Jiang Laohan knew that Ershun, the Wang family's salt seller, was his family's distant nephew, so the truth of his words was very high, and he was so angry that he couldn't do it all of a sudden. His restaurant is just a small business, and he makes hard money on weekdays, and now that the price of salt has risen so much, it means that the cost has risen, and his life is even more difficult now.

Just when Jiang Laohan and many people were angry and helpless about the rise in salt prices, an amazing news spread throughout the city in just half a day!

"Eh, brothers, have you heard? Three more salt shops opened in town this morning, and the salt there is cheap and exquisite, I've seen it, and the salt is simply amazing! I don't even know how to tell you, so go check it out! ”

"Really? How much silver is a pound? ”

"It's just three hundred wen a pound!"

"Cut...... How cheap did I think it was? It's not the same price as the salt that Wang peeled and sold! ”

"Lao Tzu lied to you as the eighth king, although they also sell three hundred Wen, but those salts are as delicate as green salt and well salt, and even better than green salt, if you don't believe it, you can go over and see for yourself!"

"What? And this kind of good thing? I'll have to go over and check it out right now! ”

As soon as the news spread, it soon reached the ears of the people who were all called, and some of the brave people tried to buy some to try, but after trying them all became crazy, because the quality of the salt was too good to express in words. Not only is the snow white and delicate, but also these salts are all wrapped in a transparent bag, which is all packed in a catty, which can be waterproof and moisture-proof.

Soon, the people of Yingzhou City all became crazy, countless people led baskets and all poured in front of these three shops, the shops were surrounded by water, everyone was crazy waving copper plates and silver to buy salt, the scene was more lively than the temple fair during the New Year, and the surging crowd almost crushed the shop!

Naturally, such a big thing can't be hidden from the deaf gentry and wealthy families in the city, and the three salt shops have just opened for an hour, and Wang Shoucheng's study immediately has an extra bag of new salt, looking at the snow-white and delicate refined salt on the table, Wang Shoucheng's brows immediately wrinkled.

He looked at his son Wang Chenglin in front of him with a stern expression and asked, "Lin'er, are these refined salts really only sold for three hundred wen?" ”

Wang Chenglin's expression was full of fear, and he hurriedly replied: "Yes, father, the child ordered someone to find out clearly, and it is indeed only sold for 300 yuan, which is the same price as the sea salt we sell!" ”

Wang Shoucheng's face had a hint of history, and he muttered, "Okay...... Okay, you Yueyang, I didn't expect you to take revenge on the old man so soon, this knife is really ruthless, you are going to ruin the foundation of the Wang family! ”

"Father, it is absolutely impossible to go on like this, who else will buy our family's salt if it goes on like this, the Yue family's hand is clearly going to cut off the roots of our Wang family!" Wang Chenglin also panicked at this time, even if he only knew how to fight bravely and eat and drink merry, he knew very well that the foundation of the Wang family was actually private salt, and if this road was cut off, the Wang family would not be far from recession.
