A faint clicking sound interrupted the Taiping County Lord's careful thoughts, and she came back to her senses and suddenly felt bad.

I didn't pay attention to it just now, and the force was not controlled, and it seemed that the glide was broken.

The county lord of Taiping kicked his legs, jumped into the glide, and quickly clenched his fists with both hands, "Father, since you have something to do, then my daughter will leave!" ”

A county lord, what kind of system does it become to speak like this! …… King Yue wanted to say something, but the lord of Taiping County had disappeared and slipped away.

"This girl!" King Yue shook his head helplessly, and went with her.

That's right, salt! …… King Yue stared at the note in his hand and began to daydream, still muttering in his mouth, "Thirty percent, three percent!" ”

Wei Zhong was a little suspicious, he always felt that something was wrong, he glanced at the glider that had not stopped swinging, "Your Majesty, when Lu Zhi comes back from the East China Sea, I am afraid that I will have to invite him to enter the palace again." ”

"Yes~~~" The corners of King Yue's mouth opened, "If you have merit, you must be rewarded, and it is time to announce his entry into the palace." ”

Not to mention the matter of the thirty percent output, just this method of making salt is also worthy of being called by King Yue.

At this point, although Lu Zhi did not explicitly say that he wanted to offer this method of making salt, he did not hide it, it was nameless but real, and it was a great achievement for the imperial court.

Wei Zhong: "......"

In this way, it would have to be summoned twice, or else the glider would never have dared to let the king use it again.

…………

Yan's Salt Works.

This is the largest salt production base in Dayue at present, here by boiling well water to make salt, not only the output is large, the quality of salt is also high, the best of which is paid tribute to the imperial court, becoming the famous Yan tribute salt of Dayue.

The salt mill workers lived together and worked together, and the method of boiling salt was passed down from generation to generation here.

These salt-making families lived outside the salt farms, and gradually formed a natural village called Yanjia Village.

Every year in the spring of Meng, salt workers go to live in the salt factory and start making salt.

When the summer rainy season came, the salt workers stopped making salt and evacuated the salt works and returned to live in Yanjia Village.

In autumn and winter, salt workers gather firewood and cut grass to prepare the fuel needed for the next year's salt production.

Year after year, life in Yanjia Village is like this, boring but rich.

Well, it's very rich, super rich.

But times always change.

…………

Time flies, the sun and the moon fly by, time flies, and in the blink of an eye, another ten days have passed.

Lu Zhi piled up mounds of dirt and played in the mud for more than a month, and finally he could not continue to be exposed to the wind and sun on the beach.

Now, he was sitting in the carriage back to the palace with Lu Li, and King Yue sent a decree asking him to bring back some salt from the salt field.

Lu Li shrank into the carriage, a little worried, "Fourth, why aren't you in a hurry at all?" ”

"What's the hurry?" Lu Zhi was holding his face on the Lu Ban table with his left hand, and his other hand was turning a carving knife, turning fast, like a small spinning top.

"What's the hurry?" Lu Li didn't dare to approach the rotating carving knife, for fear of accidental injury, so he could only shrink his head and hide back as much as possible, "Scholar Xie sent someone to send a message, the situation in the court is not good!" ”

Lu Zhiman shook his head nonchalantly, "I'm just a flat-headed commoner, so I don't have to worry so much." ”

"Hey~~~" Lu Li just sighed, panicking in his heart.

Things have to start a few days ago, Lu Zhi borrowed Lu Li's hand to make a note, saying that he was going to make the method of drying salt public.

This is a great thing for the benefit of the country and the people, Lu Zhizhi has this awareness, and King Yue is still quite happy.

Lonely is not wrong, Lu Zhi has both ability and national affairs, good job! didn't think much about it, King Yue praised a few words in the court.

This boast was bad, and a large group of officials stood up against it, denouncing Lu Zhi for thinking too simply, and saying that the public method of drying salt would cause chaos in the salt market, and then the entire Dayue would be in turmoil.

Even worse, they even suggested the method of sealing the salt, and I don't know if it was burned out of the brain.

Lu Zhi's eyes narrowed slightly, recalling the news from Xie Yan.

As the saying goes, the world is bustling, all for profit; The soil in the world is all for profit.

People are profit-seeking, and he can understand this.

If the law of drying salt is not made public, the common people will not be able to profit from it, and they will not share the interests of the salt market, which is more in line with the interests of the salt selling family.

Isn't it fragrant to produce and sell it yourself? So there's nothing wrong with them doing that.

As for the officials who suggested sealing the method of drying salt, behind them should be the forces led by Yanjiacun, who are salt makers, or relatively backward salt boilers.

If the more advanced method of drying salt is popularized, then their consequences are obvious, one word - miserable!

Even if it is not popular, the method of drying salt is only circulated among large families, and that is a huge blow to them, so it is completely understandable that they suggest sealing.

…………

After being quiet for a while, Lu Li couldn't help but ask, "Fourth, do you think this method of drying salt can still be made public?" ”

"I don't know." Lu Zhi shook his head, and the carving knife in his hand turned faster, "But it shouldn't be made public." ”

The people of Da Yue have no right to speak, and they don't even know that something is happening that affects their interests.

They don't know anything, their eyes are black, how can they compete for interests?

Lu Li nodded, "If you don't make it public, you won't make it public, it's the same if the major families meet, as long as there is more salt, the price of salt will drop, and the common people will be considered profitable, it's better than not being able to afford it, right?" ”

"Okay, you still know that you are worried about the country and the people." Lu Zhi nodded and gave a verbal compliment.

Lu Li arched his hand, "I'm not as good as you, you are the one with immeasurable merit." ”

Lu Zhi shrugged, Lu Li was startled, and stepped back, and then he found that the carving knife in Lu Zhi's hand remained the same, and there was no mistake because of the shrug.

Lu Li was bold, looked closer for a while, and then gave a thumbs up, "It's so good to play!" ”

"Without him, only the hand is familiar!" As he spoke, he carved a knife, and then began to reverse under Lu Zhi's manipulation.

Lu Li didn't hide this time, in a sense, he felt that Lu Zhi's swordsmanship was outstanding, and he should be regarded as an alternative sword master, but it was not the kind of murder and fighting.

"Fourth, do you say that it is possible to seal the method of drying salt?" On the galloping carriage, Lu Li always had a lot of problems.

Lu Zhi shook his head decisively, "It's impossible!" ”

can't be sealed, how can he make money if he is blocked?

"Hmm." Lu Li didn't ask why, and he also felt that it was impossible for the imperial court to seal the method of drying salt.

Is there any reason to throw away the silver that is almost taken for nothing?

It's just that this force led by Yanjiacun is still quite strong, and I don't know how big a wave it can make in the court.

Lu Li always followed behind Xie Yan and Xie Xue's buttocks, and knew a lot more things than Lu Zhi.

This is not good, it is another bloody storm, and it is impossible to say how many officials want to fall to the ground.
