With the guidance of the salt people, Han Jiang went to the workshop of making "refined salt" again.

Seeing that there was almost no miscellaneous taste in the finished product, Han Jiang was surprised again, he didn't expect that sea salt could be made so finely, and it had surpassed most of the table salt in the world.

If it is sold separately from ordinary salt, it seems likely to add another amount of financial income to the imperial court.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh lightly, for the princes of the court, the Huaidong salt field was already a quagmire, and Prime Minister Wang also wanted to use the salt field to drag Cao Bin, but he didn't expect Cao Bin to not only solve the problem quickly, but also strive for perfection and do better.

These people have always prided themselves as loyal and capable ministers, but they turned out to be so much different from Cao Bin, a noble from a humble background, and I don't know how Wang Xianggong and others would feel after knowing the progress here, and whether they would be as ashamed as themselves.

Just as Han Jiang was secretly sighing, a team of people with armbands followed the previous salt people over:

"This lord, the salt mill is an important place for the imperial court......"

Han Jiang glanced at the salt people who led the way, hurriedly stopped the guards beside him, and looked at the "armband" for the leader curiously:

"This official is Qin Cha Han Jiang, who are you?"

It's really that this team of people is dressed too strangely, they are dressed uniformly, but the officials are not like officials, and the people are not like people.

The head of the "armband" hurriedly saluted:

"Lord Hui, we are the picket team of the salt workers' union, and Hou Ye Cao ordered us to ensure the normal production of salt......"

After a brief inquiry, Han Jiang understood what kind of organization the Salt Workers Union was, and what surprised him even more was that this union was born in the salt people, and if it did a good job, it would be awarded by the imperial court.

Although the official position promised by Cao Bin is extremely small, it also adds a way for the people to progress, and it also increases the possibility of supervising the government for the salt people, which is a precedent in ancient times, will the court agree?

At this time, he couldn't help but be surprised by Cao Bin's courage, and he probably understood Cao Bin's purpose for doing this.

The government is not completely equal to the imperial court, they have a unified position, but there are also opposing contradictions, and the establishment of trade unions can effectively prevent the local government from deceiving the upper and lower levels and acting recklessly.

But in the final analysis, the government is a tool for the court to rule over the people, and the transfer of rights to the people is something that many people in the court never want to see.

Looking at the busy and orderly salt-making scene around him, and the tired but energetic and hopeful eyes of the salt people, Han Jiang suddenly became a little silent, perhaps this is the meaning of Cao Bin daring to risk the disapproval of the imperial court.

He was about to ask a detailed question, but was interrupted by the staff who came over:

"My lord, all the people and goods have disembarked, and now we should determine what Hou Ye Cao means as soon as possible."

"The people from Yushitai and Kaifeng Mansion may have chased after ......"

Han Jiang then remembered the purpose of rushing to Yancheng, now that Wang Yanling and Pan Renmei are fighting fiercely, they can't take care of themselves, if Cao Bin doesn't want to speak for himself, then he will really be finished.

Thinking of this, he hurriedly nodded and walked out:

"Okay, follow me into the city and ask to see Marquis Zhongjing."

Although most of his actions were forced by Cao Bin, and the other party also achieved his goal, it stands to reason that he will not see himself unlucky, but Cao Bin has always been unreasonable, who knows if he will cross the river and tear down the bridge?

It is better to be sure of the other party's thoughts before you can rest assured.

After entering the city, Han Jiang didn't care about anything else, and went straight to the Wu manor to meet Cao Bin.

Seeing that Yan Qing and Yang Zhi went in to hand in the order, they quickly took the task out again, but Han Jiang only waited for a butler's reply:

"Lord Han, Master Hou said that you and him have completed the handover, since you are in a hurry to return to Beijing, there is no need to meet, he wishes you a smooth journey."

Hearing this, Han Jiang's whole person was not good.

Damn, when I used myself, I didn't hesitate to use my official position to suppress people in order to keep myself, and now that I'm done using it, I want to get rid of myself when I don't see it, this is too inhuman?

Han Jiang was naturally unwilling to give up this life-saving straw, and hurriedly said respectfully:

"This housekeeper, please report it again, just say that Han Jiang is willing to wait, please Hou Ye will see me no matter what."

The housekeeper was very embarrassed and said with some reluctance:

"My lord, my Mrs. Yang is pregnant, and in order to concentrate on accompanying him, Master Hou has postponed a lot of official duties, and he even goes out to play less."

"Since Master Hou said that you have completed your official duties, don't disturb my Master Hou......"

Han Jiang begged many times, but the housekeeper didn't come in, and only delayed it on the grounds that it was not good to disturb him, and refused to report it.

Gradually, Han Jiang also saw something, so he gritted his teeth and took out a book of music from his arms:

"Please also ask the housekeeper to report again, and say that Han Jiang wants to impeach Wang Yanling for his wild words, and wants to ask Hou Ye for a lesson or two."

This is the hole card he has prepared a long time ago, in order to let Cao Bin save himself, he had to sell Wang Yanling and temporarily take refuge in Cao Bin.

After all, Wang Yanling's old thing is used to digging pits and not burying them, and Han Jiang is also very unlucky this time, and it is impossible for him to say that there is no resentment in his heart.

However, Han Jiang was quite kind, and did not expose Wang Yanling's true weakness, and only made a fuss about some issues that were not very important.

As expected, when the housekeeper of the Hou Mansion heard this, he didn't say a word, and ran to report it, which made him speechless.

This is clearly to pinch him.

In the inner courtyard of the manor, Cao Bin was accompanying the eighth sister to listen to books for fun, and when he heard the housekeeper's return, he couldn't help but smile at Eighth Sister Yang:

"Han Jiang looks kind, but he actually has a lot of hearts."

Sister Yang nodded with melon seeds, and said unfairly:

"Maybe in this court, my Yang family is upright, and I was sold by Wang Yanling without the slightest countermeasure."

As she spoke, she put down the melon seeds again, gently pushed Cao Bin and said:

"Cao Lang, go quickly, you have been by my side these days, don't delay your business because of me."

After saying that, she laughed stupidly again, and after finding out that she was pregnant not long ago, she wrote a letter to She Taijun as soon as possible.

This child is not only what she has been looking forward to for a long time, but also the hope of the Yang family, I don't know how She Taijun will be happy when she receives the news.

Seeing this, Cao Bin had no choice but to get up and say:

"Okay, I'll go see Han Jiang for my husband."

In fact, Cao Bin didn't plan to pit him to death this time, Han Jiang is easy to use, he is still from a family of eunuchs, his father has been an official to participate in political affairs, and several brothers are also officials in various places, and they have extensive friendships with the conservative faction in the DPRK and China.

Cao Bin also doesn't expect him to be very loyal to himself, as long as he takes a stand, it's enough.

In the future, when Wang Anshi is used as a reluctant minister, he can use Han Jiang as his deputy to play the role of buffering and lubrication.

"Master Hou, you can't cross the river and tear down the bridge!"

As soon as he walked into the front hall, Cao Bin was dragged by Han Jiang's sleeve, and he was so aggrieved that he was wronged.

Cao Bin shook off his arm without a trace, turned around and sat on the main seat, took a sip of tea, and then swore with a smile:

"Zihua, don't worry, is Ben Hou the one who crossed the river and demolished the bridge?"

"Don't worry, the evidence of Yangzhou Hou's conspiracy Ben Hou already has eyebrows, and when the court comes, Ben Hou will definitely protect you."

Hearing this, although Han Jiang was full of heart, he finally put his mind at ease and said with a happy heart:

"That's great, Master Hou is really a sincere gentleman and timely rain."

Later, he assured:

"Hou Ye rest assured, the lower officials will send the impeachment of the prime minister to the imperial court......"

"There is also the refined salt made by the Hou Ye, is it to be sold to the rich and noble families of various countries in grading? In this way, it added a financial endowment to the imperial court, and the lower officials would also write it into the chapter to help the marquis ask for credit. ”

Cao Bin was puzzled when he heard this:

"Who said that Ben Hou was going to sell Huaidong refined salt alone to the rich and noble? However, there are only two or three more processes, which is much higher than the output of boiling salt. ”

"If you have something good, why hide it?"

Even if you want to sell it gradingly, you won't use the precision of salt to divide it, just add some fine packaging.

What's more, how can it be more cost-effective to get the salt money of the rich people in the surrounding countries than to export a large number of sea trade, occupy the sea trade salt market, and plunder the overall wealth of the countries?

Hearing this, Han Jiang was stunned......
