The reason why Dahua was strict in its management of salt and iron was not to seek huge profits from the common people, but to control the outflow, especially against the powerful nomads, and it was necessary to resist their development.

This can be seen in the extremely low salt tax, we sell salt cheaply, and we never increase the price, but we limit it! For such a rogue policy, those nomads often hate it, but they are helpless.

Without a conflict of interest, the control of the imperial court became extremely strict. Qingfeng County borders the grassland, and is extremely sensitive to this policy, regardless of whether it is officials or ordinary people, if it is not good, there will be a catastrophe of raiding the family and exterminating the clan.

At the beginning of the establishment of Dahua, because some officials sold more salt, they were impeached and directly removed from their posts on the spot, exiled for 3,000 miles, and those who raided their homes and beheaded them also abounded.

Later, everyone learned well, and the fierce control of salt one by one triggered sales. From ten to five, from three to two to one, and finally not to send at all.

But without salt, the people always have to eat salt, which indirectly leads to the spread of salt smuggling.

The general principle of the magistrate is to just look at it and ignore it, and when it comes to the imperial court, he will crack down on it, and just catch two ringleaders and kill them. As for fairness and justice...... Hey, friends of the dead road don't die in the poor way, my brother can't help it......

Therefore, as long as the officials are a little more serious, kill all the villagers, and be charged with selling salt privately, not only will they not be punished, but they will be rewarded, and the official may be promoted to the third level.

This is Qian Yu took a lot of effort to inquire, accustomed to the rule of law in later generations, he broke out in a cold sweat the first time he saw it, it turned out that he unknowingly embarked on the road of crime, the situation is so serious, it is more powerful than selling heroin in later generations!

Could it be that the salt wells that had been painstakingly made could only be discarded? Just when he was unwilling, he happened to hear that Bao Xiren had the intention of opening a salt road, relying on the fact that he had met the other party, so he cheekily came to probe the wind, but he didn't expect Bao Xiren to see it, but what he saw was Bai Jingfei.

He wanted to gag and see if he could get some salt from this straw bag, who would have thought that this thing would seem absurd, but he knew very well in his heart that it was impossible to get things done just by touting a few words.

But listening to his tone, this matter is not out of order, and he must pay a certain price. Squinting at the surrounding officials, these people immediately understood, and left under the pretext of going out on an errand, and Bai Jingfei did not stop him.

It only took half a pillar of incense, and the entire hall was left with him and Bai Jingfei. Qian Yu couldn't help but sigh, the ancients said that officials are as smooth as oil, and they don't deceive me! Their ability to observe words and emotions and do things according to the wishes of the officials is already as perfect as fire, and they are amazing!

Qian Yu was about to speak, but Bai Jingfei opened his mouth first, and his expression was extremely flattering: "Brother Qian, I really want to give you salt introduction, but you also know the risks, if you don't get it right, you will lose your head, it's difficult!" ”

Sure enough, this product must have something to ask for himself, otherwise with his arrogant temperament, he would not have lowered his posture so much, so he asked: "May I ask Lord Bai, I don't know what Xiaomin can do to sell salt in Qingfeng openly?" ”

Snapping his fingers happily, Bai Jingfei was very satisfied with Qian Yu's cleverness: "It's simple, as long as you help me do one thing, don't say anything about salt, gold, silver and jewelry are all at your disposal, and you are satisfied." ”

"I don't know what's going on? Adults, please speak up and do your best in making up your mind. Qian Yu said, but he already felt bad.

Bai Jingfei looked across the window at the opposite side of the yamen: "Hey, you also know the purpose of my coming to Qingfeng, but no matter what I do, Miss Ding will not pretend."

The poems I took from you last time have already been passed to her through the maid, and there is still no news. So I'd like to ask you to come up with an idea how I can get her to marry me willingly! ”

Qian Yu almost squirted out a mouthful of old blood, big brother, is this your private matter, I'm here to do business, not a pimp. And is Miss Ding so easy to get along with? She can't do anything about you, it's not a matter of minutes to clean me up?

Shaking his head helplessly, Qian Yu said: "Lord Bai, it's not that the grass people are unwilling to help, but that your conditions are too difficult. Miss Ding has a strange temperament, and now she still relies on my money to pay it back! Let's talk about the matter of salt introduction when Lord Bao comes back! ”

Qian Yu turned his head and wanted to leave, but was pulled by Bai Jingfei: "Brother Qian, Brother Qian, you can help the younger brother find a way!" I know you have a lot of ideas, so it's better to do this, as long as you can find a way to get closer to the relationship between the two of us, I'll give you a salt introduction.

Although I don't know the specific whereabouts of Master Bao, I have also guessed something about what he did, and he will not come back without three or five months. Can you wait three or five months? ”

Qian Yu was silent, he came to Bao Xiren, just with the idea of trying it out, but he didn't dare to guarantee that it would be successful. If you think about it from another angle, with Bai Jingfei's promise, as long as you can complete it, it is undoubtedly safer.

It is impossible to let Ding Xinru marry Bai Jingfei with all her heart, but it is still possible to pay some attention, let the two meet, and create some more opportunities.

After pondering carefully, Qian Yu nodded: "Lord Bai, I can only say that I will do my best, but I dare not guarantee anything." ”

Bai Jingfei's face suddenly showed joy: "Okay, as long as you can let Miss Ding take the initiative to say a few words to me, how much salt will be introduced!" ”

After the conditions were negotiated, Qian Yu asked Bai Jingfei and Ding Xinru about the situation again. Bai Jingfei said very broken, Qian Yu summed it up, roughly he tried his best, but he didn't even see the face of the beauty, and in despair, he thought of Qian Yu, who had let him show off his style in front of the beauty.

After finishing speaking, he asked expectantly: "Brother Qian, what method do you think I should use to impress Miss Ding's heart?" ”

There are only Wei Wei and He Sui who are involved in the relationship between men and women, Wei Wei is what he met at school, and the two belong to the long-term love at work, but they are only interesting to each other, and they have never even held hands.

As for Hesui, he was forcibly tied together by the old village chief, so when it came to taking the initiative to chase girls, he had no experience at all.

But it doesn't matter, it's not a lifelong event, and if it's wrong, you won't lose anything, just toss around, anyway, Bai Jingfei's request is only to improve the relationship between the two, and he didn't say how to improve it.

Taking a deep breath, Qian Yu pretended to be unfathomable: "Lord Bai, pick up girls...... If you want to capture the hearts of beauties, the most important thing is to keep in mind the seven-character key - be bold and careful, and be thick-skinned, in fact, you have all three, you should have been guided by a master, right? ”

Bai Jingfei was taken aback: "How do you know?" ”

Qian Yu smiled secretly, you kid is so shameless at Ding Xinru's birthday banquet, who can do it in ordinary people? If there were no kobold army division staff officers, it would be hell.

Bai Jingfei said depressedly: "This is what a good classmate of mine taught me, and as you know, Xinru was willing to see me before, but now how far away is he hiding, I beat that guy up in anger." Hey, if I knew this, it would be better not to listen to him, and honestly follow the steps, maybe after a long time, she will be moved by my infatuation. ”

Qian Yu shook his head: "Lord Bai, you are wrong, love is a thing that you strive for by yourself, you must not wait, even if you spend three or five years waiting for a beautiful woman, don't you feel that it is too wasteful to spend your time?" ”

Bai Jingfei was frustrated: "What can I do if I don't wait?" Am I still strong? ”

Qian Yu said strangely: "Why can't you use strong?" Maybe Miss Ding will eat this set! ”

"Ah???h Bai Jingfei was really stunned now.
