……

Salt, iron.

It has always been a profiteering business.

Causes-

Both are scarce and necessities.

If it's not a very small production, but a bad street goods, who wants it?

If it is not used in large quantities, but it is useless like a stubborn stone, who spends money to buy it?

Especially salt.

Going back millennia.

As early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Guan Zhong reformed the salt system, making the Qi State leap to a hegemonic position.

Since then, whether it is the Qin Dynasty, the Han Dynasty, the Wei Dynasty, the Jin Dynasty, every imperial dynasty has a high-intensity management of salt, and the Great Sui is no exception.

But.

Gold and silver wealth are intoxicating.

No one can resist the tenfold or hundredfold profits brought by salt.

Gradual.

Infiltration, erosion phenomena, quietly appeared.

When Yang Tianzi saw the secret statistics, he was filled with anger and anger, but there was no solution.

Yang Tianzi can be regarded as an emperor with great talents, and his pride can be seen when you think about it.

Wu Fankou called "sharing worries for the king", which inevitably made Yang Tianzi feel that even I have nothing to do, you are a yellow-mouthed child with a weak crown, and you have a fart solution?

watched Wu someone's recital disappreciably, and soon Yang Tianzi changed color.

"Salt in the sea?"

Yang Tianzi Huo Ran got up, his eyes as sharp as an eagle falcon.

Wu Fan bowed and said unhurriedly: "Sea water is salt water itself!" ”

Take a break.

Wu Fan said slowly: "Since ancient times, fishermen living by the sea have used flat boulders. Covered with seawater, exposed to the sun to obtain sea salt. Your Majesty should have heard it. ”

Yang Tianzi thought about it for a while, and seemed to be a little impressed.

But......

Yang Tianzi looked at Wu Fan in a daze. Said: "I have indeed heard it, it seems to be ...... It seems that someone mentioned that it was not possible to turn seawater into a large amount of salt. Since you dare to bring it up...... Isn't it......? ”

Wu Fan bowed his head slightly and said, "Minister, there is indeed a method that can extract a large amount of sea salt from seawater!" ”

"Really?"

In Yang Tianzi's tone, he couldn't hide his excitement.

Wu Fan raised his head and looked at Yang Tianzi. said firmly: "Chen, not a joker! ”

"Hoo ......!!!"

Yang Tianzi let out a long breath of turbid air, and was speechless for a long time.

One of the two ways Wu Fan thought of making money.

Salt.

One word.

Two methods.

Salt drying in the sea is one of them.

Wu has a big feud with the family clan, how can it be so simple to take revenge on them?

When Yang Tianzi was wandering outside the world, Wu Fan asked with ill intentions: "Your Majesty can you know why the Tubo people often join forces with the Qiang people, Turkic people and other foreign races, and the Qiang people and Turkic people are always willing to obey their drive?" ”

"Huh?"

Yang Tianzi came back to his senses.

Wu Fan asked and replied: "Salt, there is salt in Tibet!" The Tibetans have a lot of salt in their hands! ”

Yang Tianzi smiled bitterly. Shaking his head, he said, "How can I not know about the transactions between the Tubo people and the Qiang people and the Turkic people?" The key is ......"

[Know? 】

Wu Fan was stunned.

Wu heard Fan Zeng casually mention it, and thought that there are countless natural salt pools in Tubo, which can be called inexhaustible and inexhaustible .......

Yang Tianzi sat down and sighed: "The Tubo people have been rampant for a long time. Since the reign of Gaozu, the imperial labor division has made no less than 30 expeditions, but each time it has been in vain. I, the first emperor. Seeing that the Tibetan people are becoming more and more rampant, there is no way to do it. years ago. The Tibetans joined hands with the Qiang people to invade on a large scale. plundered the middle of the Han Dynasty, and the hussar general set up a dangerous plan and used himself as bait to repel the two...... At present, the general of the guard cavalry led more than 100,000 troops to guard Yongliang. It's just a guard, but you can't fight back, do you know why? ”

Don't wait for Wu Fan to say.

Yang Tianzi rubbed his eyebrows and was depressed: "Tubo Mountain is high and dense, and the terrain is complicated...... Once the soldiers of the empire have passed, they will die for no reason. The combat power of a 10,000-strong army will lose more than half, no matter how elite it is! The Tibetans said that they were blessed by the gods, and the soldiers thought it was a curse, and over time, no one was willing to go to Tibet, lest they avoid it......"

"Hehehe!"

Wu Fan suddenly burst out laughing.

Yang Tianzi glared angrily.

Wu Fan blinked and said, "Minister, you're out of shape!" ”

Ma Li picked up the words, and Wu continued: "Your Majesty, the minister was born in the market and has seen a lot of ...... Well, a lot of dishonorable things. The so-called curse is nothing more than! Falsehood and deception, foolishness! In fact, the situation that occurs in the soldiers is called altitude sickness! In Luoyang City, why do many merchant houses sell Tibetan specialties? Where do they come from? The minister affirmed that they went to the country of Tubo and traded from the people of Tubo! ”

"Altitude sickness?"

Yang Tianzi frowned.

Wu Fan clasped his fists and saluted, "Dare to ask Your Majesty, have you climbed the mountain?" ”

Yang Tianzi nodded.

Wu Fan asked again: "Dare to ask Your Majesty, on the high mountain, do you feel that you can't breathe well?" ”

Yang Tianzi hesitated and said, "Yes!" What do you want to say? ”

"Forgive the courtiers for being rude!"

Wu Fan took a few steps forward and walked to the map hanging behind Yang Tianzi.

Reaching out to take the pen and ink, Wu Fan added a few drawings to the map.

Putting down the brush, Wu Fan said: "Your Majesty!" In fact, the place where we live is...... A huge mountain! ”

"What?"

Yang Tianzi couldn't keep up with Wu Fan's train of thought.

Wu Fan said quietly: "After the ancestor Wu Guogong retired from the market, he traveled all over the world, and went as far as Europa in the west, Tianzhu in the south, and Xiaohai in the north...... Heaven and earth are so big, not only the Central Plains. The land of the Central Plains is only less than 10% of all the land in the world! The location of the country of Tubo is like the top of a big mountain, and the rivers of the Central Plains flow into the sea in the east, because the topography of the east continues from Tubo. Gradually reduce the height. The rivers of Europa flow westward, the waters of Xiaohai to the north, and the rivers of Tianzhu to the south...... It can be seen from this that the place where Tibet is located. The terrain is very high. It's not like a mountain, it's clear to the eye. There is a poem that says it well. 'I don't know the true face of Lushan, only because I am in this mountain', this is exactly the truth! ”

"I don't know the true face of Lushan, only because I am in this mountain?"

Yang Tianzi muttered to himself.

Wu Fan continued: "The merchants in the market often secretly go to Tubo to do business, and these things can be confirmed by asking Ying Yangwei and Huangmen Wei to investigate. The reason why those people were able to go to Tibet and come back unharmed was that they had adapted to the water and soil of Tibet. I want to capture Tibet. As long as Chen Bing is on the edge of Tibet, so that the soldiers can gradually adapt to the water and soil of Tibet, there is a process! Another problem is eating, the water in Tibet can't be boiled, or even if it looks like boiling water, it is actually half-boiled water. Soldiers should pay attention to what they eat. ”

Yang Tianzi couldn't sit still anymore. Get up and pace irritably.

Wu's eyes were gurgling, flashing with cunning brilliance: "Since ancient times, after the unification of the imperial dynasty, it always likes infighting. And I don't like to open up the territory and expand the territory, and the reason for the trouble is mainly in the matter of interests! In the eyes of many. Whether it is Turkic, Tibetan, Ryukyu, Goryeo...... It is a land of transformation and a wild land, but this is not the case. The Ryukyus have gold and silver deposits. Tibet has salt that has been enough for tens of thousands of people to eat for thousands of years, and the climate in Siam and other places is enough to ensure that rice is ...... three crops a year. ”

"Who are you listening to?"

Yang Tianzi Huo Ran turned around. stared at Wu Fan fiercely.

Wu Fan bowed his head and said in a firm tone: "Since the ancestor Wu Guogong, the Wu family has traveled the world for several generations, and later inherited the Eagle Yangwei...... It can be regarded as a word of mouth, when the minister was a little younger, the minister's father often told the story to the minister, and the minister accidentally remembered it and confirmed it. That's not a story, it's a fact! Minister, I am willing to guarantee with my life! ”

Yang Tianzi took a deep breath, and his eyes showed a look of regret.

Wu Fan pursed his lips, added a fire, and said slowly: "The family is too much to deceive, so that people can't bear it...... 陛xià! Solve the problem of the curse that can conquer Tibet, and let them know that Tibet has a huge amount of salt, and they will rush to ask for troops. Wu's tone quickened: "At the same time, His Majesty ordered Shaofu Temple to secretly establish seawater salt drying workshops in Yangzhou, Jiaozhou and other places...... Waiting for the family to fight to the death with the Turks, when they are satisfied to occupy the gold mines, and then put the salt extracted from the sea water into the world market, and squeeze their monopoly marketing, the price of salt will fly down, and it will become something that the people can afford...... This law will not only benefit the people, but also crack down on ......"

"Shut up!"

Yang Tianzi severely interrupted Wu Fan's words.

"Whew......."

Yang Tianzi gasped rapidly.

Wu Fan could hear that Yang Tianzi's heavy breathing was not a physical problem, but too excited!

Impact!

Violent impact!

A violent shock to what already exists!

Yang Tianzi felt that his mind was in chaos.

Excitement, regret, anger, jealousy......

Countless kinds of inexplicable feelings gathered together, so much so that Yang Tianzi actually cried!

Yes!

In Yang Tianzi's eyes, two lines of turbid tears flowed uncontrollably.

"Why couldn't I have known earlier?"

"Why couldn't I have run into you earlier?"

"Why are you saying it now?"

Yang Tianzi almost roared and roared.

Wu Fan's expression was wonderful, with a frightened look, and he replied in a daze: "Before...... The minister said that now...... Isn't it just right to be in the prime of life? ”

A touch of sadness flashed in Yang Tianzi's eyes, and he tilted his head and suppressed his feelings.

Wu Fan's acting skills are right.

If someone Wu doesn't say so, then he has little time to do with Yang Tianzi, and it will definitely be exposed.

And now......

For an ambitious king, what saddens him the most is that there is a glittering avenue in front of him that can become an emperor through the ages, but there is not enough time!

"Integrity!"

Yang Tianzi spoke.

"The minister is here!"

Wu Fanxun responded.

Yang Tianzi sighed: "Brother Wang has high hopes for you because of your military talent. I'm the same as before...... I said that you are the Huo Hussar of the Empire, not now, and will be in the future. But you're not! You're not! You are from the Great Sui...... Future! ”

"Minister, I dare not be ashamed!" , Wu Fancheng said in fear: "Minister, he is a loyal minister of the Great Sui!" ”

"Hehehe......."

Yang Tianzi smiled deeply.

Raising his eyebrows, Yang Tianzi said: "Today's matter, not a word is allowed to be leaked to the outside world." The time is not right, when the time comes, let's implement it! ”

Wu Fan Zhengse's fist clenched and arched his hand: "Oh! ”

Wu Fan confessed another thing: "Your Majesty, today His Royal Highness the King of Han and His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess of Dangyang went to the minister's house together. ”

Yang Tianzi waved his hand and said, "It's okay to have some little things, you can go home!" ”

"Minister, retire!"

Wu Fan respectfully withdrew from the imperial study.

With a smile on his face, he nodded with the chief eunuch Huang De and the others, and Wu went away.

After waiting for no one, Wu Fan's face was gloomy.

[At home, there are thieves! 】

[Yang Tianzi knows enough! 】

In the last sentence, Wu Fan originally wanted to tell Yang Tianzi that he did not intend to participate in the emperor's seizure of the heir, but out of helplessness, he was pulled by the eldest princess of Dangyang......

Unexpectedly.

Yang Tianzi's heart was agitated, and he said that he was bald.

It is equivalent to suing sù Wu Fan - you have my eyeliner at home.

Hawkers!

Look up at the stars.

Wu Fan smiled again, this time, it was a bad smile.

[Family, I'm afraid it won't be very comfortable! ] 】

[After that, the Son of Heaven trusted himself more? 】

Wu someone's thoughts were churning in his heart
