The old man laughed softly a few times, and turned to look at the busy maids.

"Isn't this still the method given by His Highness? I can't think of such a perfect way. ”

"Your Majesty, it would be nice if you could see it for yourself."

The old man leaned back and said.

Your Highness?

It's the King of Chu again!

When Li Shimin heard this, he smiled bitterly in his heart, but it was expected.

Also.

Such a shocking method that has never been heard of, except for the King of Chu, no one can come up with it.

Now, no matter what method the King of Chu comes up with, Li Shimin dares not to be surprised.

Nima's, that is, people will fly and he believes in this.

Forehead.......

Of course I believe this, I've flown it before, and I almost forgot about it.

Li Shimin took a deep breath, shook his head, didn't let himself be cranky, and then walked quickly to a nearby maid.

"Show me what's around your waist, trouble."

Li Shimin said directly.

He knew that this thing should be the secret to keeping the roof of the house clean.

When the maid saw Li Shimin say this, of course she didn't dare to hesitate, so she directly untied the burden and respectfully handed it to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin took it.

The eldest grandson Wuji, Wei Zheng and Du Ruhui surrounded him tightly.

The old man gently smoothed his beard, his face was calm, and he smiled.

Li Shimin held it in one hand, and reached in and grabbed a handful with the other.

But when he saw the thing in his hand, Li Shimin was directly stunned.

And not only him.

The eldest grandson Wuji, Wei Zheng and Du Ruhui were all wide-eyed and couldn't believe it.

This.......

They were horrified.

What is it?

In Li Shimin's hands is clearly a handful of snow sand salt that is like a divine object in their hearts.

That's right, it's snow sand salt.

Li Shimin suddenly raised his head.

The subordinates of the Chu Palace's Mansion are still busy.

They are sprinkling snow and sand salt all over the roof!

it!

Li Shimin was blinded.

He turned his stiff neck and looked at the huge courtyard of the Chu Palace, if these roofs were all sprinkled, how much would it take?

Oh my god!

It's too bad.

Using salt to remove snow is something that even the Imperial City can't do.

"Old ....... old man."

Li Shimin pursed his chapped lips and looked at the old man.

"What the hell is going on here....... here?"

He asked hoarsely.

The eyes of the three eldest grandsons Wuji also locked on the old man.

Grandma's!

Do you think this salt is dirt on the side of the road?

Such a waste!

This.......

They really don't know what to say.

It's just that the brain went blank, lost the ability to organize language, and fell into a deep shock.

The old man smiled lightly.

He walked over, met the horrified eyes of the four people, grabbed a handful of snow sand salt, and gently raised it to the side.

Clap your hands.

Unhurriedly, he said: "Your Majesty, Lao Dao is also acting on orders. ”

"These salts were sent by the king of Chu from Lishan, saying that if they are put on the roof, they can melt the snow."

"As for the rest, Lao Dao doesn't know."

The old man's voice fell, and Li Shimin's heart was shocked again.

The salt sent by the king of Chu from Lishan?

Damn it!

Could it be that the king of Chu is really in Lishan?

It is so extravagant to use salt to melt snow, but this snow can be melted with salt?

Yourself, why have you never heard of it?

"Old gentleman, how much snow and sand salt has been sent from Lishan?"

Li Shimin swallowed his saliva and asked again.

The old man smiled: "No more, no less, it should be enough for the Chu Palace, and every roof can be taken care of." ”

"This is all from Lishan, and it was sent after calculation."

Li Shimin was silent.

He looked down at the fine snow sand and salt in his baggage.

This salt, really, is whiter than snow.

If it is released, it is estimated that the people of the whole world will go crazy!

Who has ever seen anything like this?

Even if it is said that it fell from the sky, no one will not believe it.

But.......

But now in the Chu Palace, they were treated as if they didn't want money, and they threw it directly on the roof.

Although the effect is really good.

However, it was really a waste for Li Shimin to look at it.

The eldest grandson Wuji, Wei Zheng and Du Ruhui were beside them, and they also looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

Although I know how to deal with the roof of the Chu Palace, such a method cannot be copied by the people at all, and the court cannot promote it at all.

Even the Imperial City can't do such a big deal!

Such a waste of salt is simply intolerable in their eyes.

The people don't have the ability to sprinkle salt on the roof.

Grandma's!

What is in the mind of His Royal Highness the King of Chu?

You can figure it out.

And it's all so good.

Li Shimin took a deep breath, he looked around, looked at the people of the Chu King's Mansion who were in full swing, and opened his mouth, but after all, there was nothing to say.

He nodded.

"Old man, let's go first, you ....... busy."

Li Shimin is gone.

When I left, I was still holding the burden of snow and sand salt tightly in my hand.

Reluctant!

The three eldest grandsons, Wuji, also hurriedly saluted the old man and hurriedly followed.

Out of the Chu Palace, Li Shimin stood in the snow, motionless.

Shock!

Burst!

Terror!

He really never imagined that the Chu Wangfu would have such an operation.

God!

This is truly a god!

Kuan'er, this child.......

Grandma's, even if it's a waste, you can't use snow sand salt, can't you use those ordinary ones?

"Your Majesty, this method ......."

Wei Zheng pursed his dry lips and stopped talking.

Li Shimin smiled bitterly and said: "Impossible, so much salt, let alone the people, even the imperial court can't get it." ”

"How many houses are there in the whole of Chang'an and its surroundings? If all of this salt is used to eliminate the snow, how much will it ....... use? ”

"Except for Kuan'er, no one would use such a method."

"However, I estimate that Kuan'er can only deal with this piece of the Chu Palace, no matter how much, he is enough to choke, such snow sand and salt are definitely difficult to make, very difficult!"

Li Shimin's voice was full of emotion.

So much salt.

So capricious.

He, the emperor, can't do it, Kuan'er, Kuan'er, how can you be so free? Father really wants to exchange with you now.

Wei Zheng and the others all nodded.

A wry smile on his face.

Speechless.

They are not the kings of Chu after all.

"Let's go back, let's think of something else."

Li Shimin said in a deep voice.

….……….…….

When Li Shimin returned to the imperial city, Li Jing was already waiting at the gate of Taiji Palace, his face anxious, pacing back and forth.

It seems that there is something urgent.

"Your Majesty!"

Seeing Li Shimin and the four of them coming back, Li Jing hurriedly ran down the steps and rushed over from a distance.

Li Shimin was also a little surprised.

Li Jing, as the secretary of the military department, shouldn't he sit in the military department at this time, or assign the army to clear the snow disaster?

How did you come to the Imperial City?

It seems that he is still so flustered.

"Your Majesty, you're back, no, something happened!"

Li Jing's breathing was a little short.

Li Shimin frowned slightly.

The eldest grandson Wuji had already opened his mouth and asked, "What's the matter?" What happened? As far as the current situation is concerned, hasn't the situation of the people in Chang'an been stabilized? ”

"I'm waiting, I just accompanied His Majesty to go around in Chang'an, although the situation is not good, but everything is under control."

"What else could be so stressful.

Wei Zheng and Du Ruhui were also puzzled.

"Gollum ......."

Li Jing swallowed his saliva fiercely.

"Your Majesty, there are auxiliary machines, this is not a matter of snow disasters, it is ....... ....... salt."

"Your Majesty, something happened to the salt."

Li Jing's voice trembled, and he said fiercely.

Salt.

This is a major matter related to the life and death of the people.

Not to mention that it's been another eventful time.

The weather was bitterly cold.

The snow is heavy.

Although the people have been stable for the time being, the situation is still not good.

If there is no salt replenishment at this time, the consequences ....... unimaginable.

At that time, the people will not even have the strength to clear the snow, and even if there is more honeycomb coal, the people will still feel extremely cold.

The people will die before they know it.

Don't look at the salt is small, it seems to be just a condiment on weekdays, but the relationship behind it is big.

This point, how can Li Jing, as the secretary of the military department, not know his career as a horse?

Therefore, he did not dare to delay.

As soon as there was an abnormality in the salt, he came to report to Li Shimin.

Salt!

When this word appeared, Li Shimin's brain "buzzed", like a drought thunder resounding in the sky.

The eldest grandson Wuji, Wei Zheng and Du Ruhui also had their eyes suddenly widened.

The four people, as if they were conditioned, stared at Li Jing deadly.

Along the way, they hadn't woken up from the operation of the Chu Palace, and they were all thinking about the matter of snow and sand and salt in their minds, and suddenly, when they heard what Li Jing said again, their hearts beat violently all of a sudden.

Salt, something happened?

"Pharmacist, what the hell is going on? Say! Let's be clear!! ”

Li Shimin's eyes were solemn and he said in a deep voice.

Li Jing took a deep breath and replied, "Your Majesty, Chang'an is short of salt, it should have started three days ago. ”

"But at that time, it was snowing, and there were people below who reacted, and I didn't pay too much attention."

"After all, the snow disaster is tight, and I just think that these salt shops should be because of heavy snow, so they didn't open for a short time."

"Moreover, there is also the salt shop of the official camp to support it these days, so there is no big chaos, the people are just walking a few more steps."

"However, after so many days, the salt shop is still the same."

"The entire salt shop in Chang'an has closed its door, and the minister sent people to ask, and they all said that the salt in the shop was all empty."

"The salt in our government-run shops, I don't know why, is selling better than ever, and it is said that several groups of people have bought a lot of salt."

"So now, it is all sold out, that is to say, the entire Chang'an is completely free of salt."

Li Jing said, and couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

Li Shimin listened to him.

The eldest grandson Wuji, Wei Zheng and Du Ruhui also listened to him.

The eyes became more and more solemn.

Sold out?

Several groups of people bought a lot of table salt?!

This.......

You must know that in the past, the official business of this salt occupied a very small weight.

Usually, the sales of the sold are very low.

But suddenly being short-sold, Li Shimin really never expected it.

"Government shop, is there any salt now?"

Li Shimin asked again.

Li Jing's eyes were full of bitterness.

"It's gone."

"All the inventory was sold to that group of people."

"Because our government-run shop has never done such a big business, the inventory is not right, and our salt in Chang'an doesn't count on the government-run salt shop at all, so in the past few days, almost the sales volume of our government-run shop for two years has been sold."

"It's all empty, and that group of people, I sent someone to investigate, and the minister wanted to see what they were going to do when they suddenly bought so much salt, thinking, it's really not good, let's take some back from the government, and focus on the people first."

"However, the puzzle is that they can't find the origin at all, they must still be in Chang'an, but they have disappeared."

Li Jing's face also became heavy.

People, they must still be in Chang'an.

This is absolutely true.

Because of the heavy snow, a large amount of goods could not be transported at all.

However, the government can't find any traces, which is a bit interesting.

Wei Zheng's brows furrowed, his eyes flickered, and his brain spun wildly.

"It's the world!!"

He spoke suddenly.

An incomparably resolute answer was given.

"Your Majesty, it's the world!"

"In the entire Chang'an, except for the Shi clan, there are almost no others."

"Although the share of our government-run shop is small, if you want to buy it out, you also need a huge amount of funds, except for the clan, no one can do it."

"And no one will do it except them!"

"Ordinary rich people, what do they buy so much salt for? It doesn't make sense at all. ”

"So, it can only be the Shi clan, the pharmacist also said that he couldn't find any traces afterwards, which shows that it was the Shi clan who made the move."

Wei Zheng analyzed them one by one.

An answer is given.

As soon as this answer came out, in an instant, the air around him seemed to be several degrees lower.

Li Shimin's fingers slammed.

The gaze is twisted.

His eyebrows furrowed.

"Are they stupid ....... Shiclan?"

"What are you going to do with so much salt? Moreover, they are the largest suppliers of salt, and there is no shortage of salt at all, that is, the salt of the Guanyin official camp is also divided from their salt, and they ....... have no money to spend? ”

Li Shimin couldn't figure it out.

Fang Weizheng's words make sense, very reasonable.

But if this is done by the world, it is too unexpected.

"Hoo ......."

Wei Zheng shook his head and let out a long breath, his voice becoming more and more gloomy.

"Your Majesty, they are going to completely cut Chang'an and overturn the imperial court."

Wei Zheng is smart.

The purpose of the family has been discerned.

In fact, the strategy of the world clan is not complicated, it is very simple.

However, it is the simplest strategy, and it is also the most life-threatening.

It's so simple that there is no point to turn the tables.

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of several people who were staring at Wei Zheng suddenly exploded.

All of a sudden, they all understood.

Salt!

It can be said that this is the lifeblood of the people.

And the people are definitely the lifeblood of Datang.
