The news reached Daning City.

The imperial court not only did not allocate salt, but also did not allow salt merchants to go out of the fortress, on the grounds that Yang Chengying's war report was problematic.

When the specific implementation was carried out, Jizhen also made a big incident.

They looted the grain transported by the salt merchants and beat them up.

Gao Qiqian didn't control it, so he had to take these salt merchants north and complain to Yang Chengying.

Yang Chengying looked solemn, listened to the complaints of the salt merchants, and threw the cup on the ground.

"How can this be done to me?" Yang Chengying said angrily, "The salt quotations issued by the imperial court themselves don't count, and they go back on their word!" ”

Other generals were also indignant: "Jinglu, you have to go to the court and state this matter." ”

"That's right, the court is too bullying, and it actually questioned us as fake."

"Huh, fake? They have the ability to learn from us and beat Lin Dan to escape. ”

Only Abatai said calmly: "If the imperial court is really Shengming, then we Jurchens don't need to let Daming go." ”

Abatai was originally a concubine, and his status in the clan was not as good as that of his nephews such as Yue Zhen, and he was used to seeing the cold and warm of the world.

These words silenced many generals.

"Since the court doesn't recognize it, then I won't bother with salt introduction."

Yang Chengying said: "I will make a salt guide myself, let the merchants transport grain to Daning City, and then go to Zhenyu City to receive salt." ”

"There is a problem, our salt is monopoly. They get the salt, can they really sell it? ”

Kim Zhijun said with some concern.

Feng Quan said with a smile: "Where the benefits go, some people are desperate. Moreover, many salt merchants also have noble backgrounds. They sold the salt to the Kyoshi at a high price, and it was no problem at all. ”

Cui Chengxiu listened and nodded in agreement: "Jingluo, this matter is handled by the imperial court. Think about it, can it be ordinary small traders who can sell salt? Those are rich people. Wouldn't it be better for us to take advantage of the trend and use them to sell salt to the outside world and earn salt taxes. ”

The generals listened and nodded frequently.

That's a good idea. It is indeed faster to earn money from these big salt merchants than to collect money from the common people, and it comes more often.

"Then let's just go one step further and allow the caravan to sell iron pots and other necessities to the Mongol tribes."

Yang Chengying smiled: "But no tax is collected." It was a concession to them, and at the same time, it also made the Mongols settle down and raise horses for us. ”

"It's a really brilliant move."

Cui Chengxiu clapped his hands and smiled.

After the meeting, Yang Chengying personally visited the injured salt merchant and ordinary porter, expressing condolences on the one hand and the policy of Liaodong on the other.

Sure enough, this move attracted the support of many salt merchants.

During Yang Chengying's absence, the Houjin army only attacked Anshan City, and the purpose was also to prevent the people from escaping to Liaodong Town.

As for other aspects, Huang Taiji is very calm and determined to stabilize the country for a period of time, without major moves.

In view of this, Yang Chengying concluded that Huang Taiji would not make a move against Daning Wei in the short term.

In order to do a good job in the matter of salt introduction, Yang Chengying left Daning City on July 27 of that year and returned to Guangning.

After meeting the princess and seeing Yingniang and the two children, Yang Chengying summoned Fan Wencheng and others to Zhendong Hall to discuss matters.

Hearing that Yang Chengying wanted to engage in salt introduction by himself, Fan Wencheng said: "This is indeed a high move, the price of salt in Liaodong is relatively stable, which can force them to sell to the outside world, and we earn salt tax." ”

"So you agree." Yang Chengying said.

"Of course, it's just that I have to think about one thing clearly, salt is in private hands, which also means that it is inconvenient to manage."

Fan Wencheng reminded.

"This makes Brother Ling think a lot."

"The subordinates must convey it."

Immediately afterwards, Fan Wencheng led the topic to the top of the Sailor Thunderbolt Camp.

"In another month or two, it will be the middle of winter, and it will be convenient for the big ships to go to the country, and it will be too cold to travel."

Fan Wencheng said.

"Yes, I'm coming back for that too."

Yang Chengying said with a smile: "I haven't seen the Perak camp for so long, and I saw Geng Zhongming say in the letter that he wanted to surprise me." ”

"Jinglu is still the same as before, organizing merchant ships to accompany him?"

"That's right. By the way, especially those who accompanied me on this expedition to Naturalized City, as well as the goods of the Mongolian tribes, must be available, and they will all be loaded on the ship. ”

"My subordinates will do it."

"Okay." Yang Chengying nodded.

The voyage, which was originally scheduled for March this year, was postponed to November due to temporary events.

This time it was very different from the previous ones, not only did they add the port of Naha and the Satsuma domain, but they also planned to meet with the Spanish delegation in person at the port of Naha.

Expanding trade routes and technology exchanges is good for future development.

As for the merchant ships, they are still mainly fortune ships, which are not easy to capsize when sailing close to the coastline, and can also shelter from the wind in time.

As for the main battleship going to the Wa Kingdom, Yang Chengying was full of expectations, hoping that Geng Zhongming and Zheng Zhilong would be able to live hard.

Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived.

The time when I returned from my mission to the Wa Kingdom was on the third day of Yang Chengying's arrival in Guangning.

He made a lot of money this time, and he brought special products to the two young masters.

Yang Chengying asked people to bring the specialties to the backyard, and then told Ning Wan about his voyage.

Ning Wan smiled and said, "I was about to talk about this matter, Li Chao has a very big opinion on the gentry sending you grain. Some people even want to go to the Ming Court and sue you. ”

"Oh?" Yang Chengying plucked a grape, peeled it with his fingernails, and threw it in his mouth.

"The king felt that it was inappropriate, so he pressed it down."

I reached out and tore off a bunch, picked a grape and stuffed it into my mouth, and didn't peel it.

"They are all so-called 'anyway' heroes, and their skin is itching tightly!"

Yang Chengying ate another one, "I have to teach them a lesson this time, otherwise they will all forget who protected them." ”

Burst......

After Ning finished, I spit out the sour skin, twisted my eyebrows and said, "There is also the Wa Kingdom." The promise is very refreshing, and I guess there are bad things waiting for you. ”

"What other good things can wait for me?" Yang Chengying took a sip of tea, "They must have thought that my warships were all decorations, so they weren't afraid." ”

"On the other hand, as soon as Li Dan died, Yan Siqi led the crowd to the chicken coop, and some of them took refuge in Zheng Zhilong, and the power of the pirates was greatly reduced in the Wa Kingdom."

Ning finished my analysis.

"It doesn't matter, the shogunate hasn't fully mastered the power of the feudal domains."

Yang Chengying said with a smile: "I went this time to support the Tsushima Domain and the Pingdo Domain, and by the way, I knocked on the Satsuma Domain." The Satsuma clan mistakenly thought that I had been instigated by the shogunate. ”

"In the end, it's the strength that speaks." Rather finish my way.

"Oh, by the way, do you know what Geng Zhongming's surprise is?"

Yang Chengying asked curiously.

Ning Wan I heard this, and smiled mysteriously: "Jingluo, you have to see this with your own eyes." ”

Yang Chengying chuckled lightly and said, "Yo, what a rare thing, it's worth hiding like this." ”

"Definitely worthy of your money." I'm full of confidence.

Yang Chengying was even more curious. He remembered that his water master academy had been there for a while, and it was time to see it with his own eyes.

"As soon as the Games are over, I will personally go to southern Liaoning to inspect the development of various places." Yang Chengying thought to himself.
