Lin Xiaoman, who became an agricultural expert, was dedicated to studying yield, and by the way, he took the time to give Yang Hanmo a strategic guidance.

After completely controlling Tongzhou, Yang Hanmo boldly copied a group of corrupt officials such as Sun Tongmao, as well as those evil landlords in Taiyi Mansion who were unkind to the rich, and copied a total of millions of taels of silver, which was completely rich.

What's more, now there are more than 100,000 people in Tongzhou, and the stock in the official warehouse is enough to eat for a year.

If you have money and food, you naturally want to expand your territory.

After learning more about the current situation that Yang Hanmo knew, and inquiring about everything in detail, between Youzhou and Huaizhou, Lin Xiaoman chose Huaizhou.

First secretly annexed Huaizhou.

As for why?

Salt!

Table salt is definitely a top priority.

Daqian's salt, that is inland mine salt, mainly Chuzhou and Xinzhou two major salt-producing areas, and now Chuzhou is occupied by northern Jiangsu, salt production is down by half, although there is a court to control the price of official salt, but within a few months, in the second half of the year, there will definitely be a huge gap in the supply of salt.

Without salt, there will definitely be big problems.

And in the southernmost part of Huaizhou, there is a small area near the sea, and there is her "Encyclopedia" in it, producing sea salt, no problem.

So, Huaizhou!

Lin Xiaoman analyzed in an orderly manner, "Brother, you secretly occupy Huaizhou, and then we make our own salt, believe me, no problem!" In a short period of time, Chuzhou will definitely not be able to beat it, and in the second half of the year, this salt will only be more expensive than gold. ”

In this regard, Yang Hanmo could only say, "Xiaoxi, your analysis is too reasonable, but seawater can produce salt?" Are you sure you really can? ”

Lin Xiaoman patted his chest and swore an oath, "I said okay, then it will definitely work!" ”

"Oh my God! Brother, what good things did I do in my last life, God sent you, a little fairy with beauty and wisdom, to save me, little sister, you are really ice and snow smart, show off your wisdom, and have exquisite ......" Yang Hanmo was pleasantly surprised, and he could only blow rainbow farts.

What kind of fairy sister is this, it's simply omnipotent!

That old eunuch master is actually an immortal, right? And then the fairy sister who learned the immortal means is here to help him dominate the world, right?

Or is it that in fact, which way of heaven did he descend to earth to complete the great cause of dominating the world, and his sister also went down to earth to help him?

For Lin Xiaoman's unconventional ability, Yang Hanmo called a brain hole.

"Brother, don't blow it, just blow it again, get a map of Huaizhou, and let's discuss where to start."

"Okay!" Yang Hanmo is full of energy.

……

After determining Huaizhou, Yang Hanmo said that he would go to Huaizhou with a group of cronies, while Lin Xiaoman stayed and farmed.

Yang Hanmo took the grain with a big grudge and went to Huaizhou to buy people's hearts, and the large army went to the disaster relief, and the small team went directly to the capital city to investigate the situation of the officials, and then chose to win over the target, and began to gradually install cronies in various prefectures and counties, and strive to secretly control Huaizhou.

Tongzhou is his fiefdom, no matter how noisy he is, at most he will eat a hanging, but Huaizhou is different, after all, their father is still sitting on the throne, and Yang Hanmo does not dare to do it blatantly.

Yang Hanmo adopted a conservative policy of acting in secret, first inserting all his cronies into it, and holding most of the officials in Huaizhou in his hands, in case there was a big chaos in the world one day, he only needed to raise a banner and take Huaizhou without much effort, and in case the world was not chaotic, he pretended that he had done nothing.

Regarding Yang Hanmo's steady and steady conservative strategy, Lin Xiaoman can only say that he is indeed worthy of the person she chosen, which is obscene and developed, and she is completely the same style.

Yang Hanmo is not in Tongzhou, and Lin Xiaoman is the largest in Tongzhou, so all kinds of busy, hey, those who can work hard.

In July, Lin Xiaoman received a letter from Yang Hanmo, handing over the task of cultivating mother seedlings to his agricultural apprentice who graduated from the crash course.

Lin Xiaoman took a few people, traveled lightly, and set off to Nanxian County in Huaizhou.

Nanxian County, the southernmost county of Huaizhou, is close to the sea.

At this time, the entire county is basically already Yang Hanmo's people.

When he arrived in Nanxian County, he conducted a field investigation and determined that he could use the 'Yantian method' to produce salt, and Lin Xiaoman immediately drew all kinds of drawings.

After the drawings were drawn and the supervisors were confirmed, the on-site construction began.

During the construction, Lin Xiaoman didn't need to stare at the whole time, but he couldn't leave directly, after all, if there was any problem, he had to look for her.

Lin Xiaoman started to enforce the law again and fished to kill the bandits, passing the time.

As soon as the world was in chaos, there were many bandits, some of them were forced to go to Liangshan, some were robbed while the fire was burning, and some were originally extremely vicious......

No matter what the reason, if there are more bandits, the law and order will not be good, so if you beat them, you can also earn a foreign block.

At the end of July, the salt pans were dug up, and the simple sea salt processing plant was beginning to take shape.

Start of work, salt production.

In July and August, the temperature was high, the sun was particularly dry, and it was very successful, and the coarse salt came out.

Coarse salt is obtained, but due to limited conditions, impurities can only be removed by simple extraction by filtration and saturation method.

Although it is a little worse than mine salt, it is still edible.

Large-scale salt production, success.

Because the salt is all official salt and private transactions are not allowed, Yang Hanmo chose the nearest official road from Nanxian to Tongzhou and shipped it back in batches.

If you don't let you sell it, you will eat it yourself and keep it.

Buying salt every year is a big expense, and when you save money, you can do more things.

Just when the Yantian was operating normally, Lin Xiaoman received a message that they had discovered a mine in Tongzhou! Suspected iron ore!

To develop, it is necessary to adapt measures to local conditions, so Lin Xiaoman quickly became a geological exploration class before, and a group of geological teams explored everywhere in the big land of Tongzhou.

Lin Xiaoman always believes that there is no barren land that does not pull out a dime, only an exploration team that does not work hard!

No, the results are out.

Iron ore!

Iron ore is definitely a good thing.

Because of this big news, Yang Hanmo and Lin Xiaoman, brothers and sisters, hurried overnight and arrived at the scene as quickly as possible.

So after investigation, Lin Xiaoman determined that it was really an iron mine, and it was an iron mine.

"Brother, do you want to report it?"

Iron ore, that is mined by the imperial court, and once reported, it will belong to the imperial court.

If you don't report it, it's your own, but it's a very serious rebellion.

"Xiaoxi, do you know how to mine and smelt?"

For iron ore, Yang Hanmo was first ecstatic, and then distressed.

There is a treasure mountain, and I won't use it!

"Yes, no problem."

In Lin Xiaoman's view, mining is not a problem, the problem is that there is no manpower.

"Then don't report it, I'll block the news."

Seeing Lin Xiaoman nodded, Yang Hanmo was overjoyed, and made a decision without hesitation, as long as he did a good job of secrecy, the emperor was far away, who knew that he was mining.
