In fact, the Wang family does not have a better way to purify coarse salt, but after purification, it is far from reaching the quality of Li Changfeng's refined salt.

Purifying coarse salt according to their outdated technology will greatly increase the cost.

Therefore, in addition to their own consumption and exclusive to high-ranking officials and nobles, almost all of the official salt supplied by the Wang family to ordinary people is directly dried in seawater or salt wells, and then processed roughly, which leads to frequent people being poisoned by eating these coarse salts.

In the past, it was not that no one sued the Wang family, but because the Wang family was powerful, and Emperor Qianwu was afraid that the Wang family controlled the official salt, and he was worried that they would take the opportunity to make trouble, in the end they could only be stopped.

The Wang family also became more and more unscrupulous because of the attitude of controlling the official salt and Emperor Qianwu, and they didn't care about the quality of the official salt at all.

But this time was different.

Emperor Qianwu issued an order to Dali Temple, asking them to start investigating and collecting relevant evidence, as if they were doing business.

Dali Temple, which has always been procrastinating, has uncharacteristically shown a very high efficiency, and immediately launched an investigation into the matter.

In the face of undeniable facts, Dali Temple immediately judged that the official salt of the Wang family was of poor quality and indeed poisonous, and sent a large number of officials to confiscate the official salt in all the salt shops of the Wang family in the capital with the assistance of Dongchang.

All the official salt in it was transported to Li Changfeng's warehouse as evidence, and he took it to the secondary processing to produce refined salt.

Then Dali Temple issued an announcement, saying that the official salt of the Wang family was unqualified after random inspection, and ordered the Wang family to re-supply the official salt of qualified quality, and reminded the people to be cautious about buying the official salt of the Wang family.

With such a movement, coupled with Li Changfeng's secret encouragement, the matter soon spread throughout the capital, and people were discussing the matter after tea and dinner in the streets and alleys.

"Have you heard that the Wang family's official salt is having a problem eating again!"

"How could you not have heard of such a big movement? The Wang family is really too much, and they don't take the lives of our people seriously at all! ”

"Look at how fresh you are saying, this is not the first time this kind of thing has happened, when did the Wang family take it seriously?"

"I'm afraid the Wang family won't be able to take things seriously this time, Your Majesty seems to be unable to bear it this time, and he is going to clean up the Wang family."

"Your Majesty is wise, it's long overdue to clean up!"

……

For a while, the prestige of the Wang family fell to the bottom, and everyone was criticizing and writing.

Some of Emperor Qianwu's actions have been appreciated by the people, and they are praising him as a wise monarch.

The people's hearts are back, and it is clear at a glance.

Wang Jingzhi, the head of the Wang family who got the news, was very angry, guessing that Emperor Qianwu was playing ghosts, otherwise whether it was Dali Temple or other powerful people, they would not have the courage to target their Wang family.

Soon, the Wang family confirmed this conjecture through courtiers who secretly colluded with them, and Wang Jingzhi, the head of the Wang family, was furious.

"Bastard thing! It's just audacious! ”

"Emperor Qianwu, Emperor Qianwu, we have always kept the well water from the river, if you dare to touch my Wang family, then don't blame me for being unkind!"

"Don't think that you can act recklessly if you are the emperor, I will let you know that my Wang family is powerful, and I will let you personally come to apologize to me!"

After a roar, Wang Jingzhi regained his composure and immediately began to arrange a counterattack.

On the other side, Li Changfeng came to the warehouse, looking at the massive amount of official salt that had just been seized from the Wangjia Salt Shop, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

With this official salt, he will soon be able to produce enough refined salt, and the next plan can be executed.

He first sent people to secretly lay refined salt sales channels in major cities across the country, and at the same time, let the shops in the capital that had already been found in a good location near the Wang's official salt sales shop begin to renovate and prepare for business.

At the same time, he also had a large amount of refined salt from the refined salt factory in White Rock City and transported it to major cities and towns across the country.

Everything is going on in an orderly manner.

The Zhao family also participated in the attack on the artillery battalion, and in addition to the assassination of Li Changfeng before, Emperor Qianwu naturally would not let it go.

At his behest, Gao Dali sent a large number of masters from the East Factory, and with the assistance of Six Doors, launched an investigation into the Zhao family's other industries outside the capital.

The name of the investigation is actually to fabricate various crimes, and the seizure of the Zhao family's property to fill the treasury is a revenge for the Zhao family's previous actions.

Zhao Tianquan, the head of the Zhao family, was furious when he learned of this, and smashed everything he could see in the council hall to vent the anger in his heart.

"What a guts! Is the Dog Emperor going to completely tear his face with my Zhao family?! ”

"Doesn't he, the emperor, want to do it? If you don't want to, we'll support an obedient emperor again! ”

After the previous failed assassination of Li Changfeng, Li Changfeng took revenge on the Zhao family that night, burning many of their Zhao family's properties under the pretext of chasing down the assassins.

On the second day, after Emperor Qianwu learned about this, he intensified his efforts and directly made people raid the Zhao family's property in the capital on trumped-up charges.

This series of actions made the Zhao family suffer extremely heavy losses.

That's it.

Now Emperor Qianwu even sent people to raid the Zhao family's properties in other places, as if he wanted to put the Zhao family to death.

The Zhao family has been inherited for hundreds of years, and they have never been oppressed like this, Zhao Tianquan is naturally furious, and he is determined to teach Emperor Qianwu a lesson.

Zhao Zhijing, the elder of the Zhao family, bowed and stood aside, and only after Zhao Tianquan had vented enough and his anger had decreased a lot, did he cautiously speak.

"Family master, my side has already gotten the news through the inside line of the palace, Emperor Qianwu has found out that it was us and the dead soldiers of the Wang family faction who attacked the secret military camp at night, and I am afraid that this move will touch the scale of Emperor Qianwu, so I will take action against our Zhao family desperately."

In fact, when the dead soldiers were dispatched, Zhao Zhijing did not agree.

He felt that Emperor Qianwu had hidden the secret camp so deeply, which must be very important to Emperor Qianwu, and a rash attack would make him mad about revenge.

But he is only an elder after all, and the Zhao family is still the head of the family, so he can only let Zhao Tianquan arrange this matter.

As a result, Emperor Qianwu sent heavy troops to defend the secret camp afterwards, which fully confirmed his suspicions, and the revenge came like a storm as he suspected.

"What about touching his Qianwu Emperor's scales?" Zhao Tianquan sneered, but he still regained his composure, realizing that what he had done before was a bit reckless, and slow penetration was the best policy.

Zhao Zhijing knew that Zhao Tianquan had regained his composure, but now he was still stubborn, and he just needed to go down a step.

He coughed dryly and said: "At this time, Emperor Qianwu is still angry, and openly engaging in things may lead to even more crazy retaliation from Emperor Qianwu, anyway, that loss is a drop in the bucket for us, and it is better to be obscure now." ”

The Zhao family has been inherited for hundreds of years, and the loss of this bit of silver is really nothing to them, and it is completely within the range of what they can bear.

Coupled with the fact that Emperor Qianwu was indeed an emperor who dared to act and was eloquent, Zhao Tianquan was already a little shaken in his heart.

But he was still a little unwilling: "Just let go of Emperor Qianwu, the dog emperor?" ”
