Chapter 8: A good way to rejuvenate the country at the age of 8!

Late at night, Li Si took a cloth bag and went straight to Yingzheng's bedroom.

"Your Majesty, Gongzi He's law is very good! This is the refined salt made of high quality! ”

Ying Zheng took the cloth bag and held the white. Flower. The salt of the flowers, laughing:

"My dragon son, at the age of 8, he has a good strategy for rejuvenating the country!"

"Li Si, I ordered you to grasp the Great Qin Salt Division, and in the future, the refined salt made by Great Qin, without my permission, no one can touch half a point, violators, Zhu clan!"

Li Si also knew the impact that the advent of refined salt would have on the family, and his expression was serious:

"Whoa!"

Early in the morning, the ministers came to the main hall.

Meng Yi knew that His Majesty had taken Li Si to Gongzi He the day before yesterday, but after they came back, neither of them did anything.

Although He Gongzi's words are amazing, but there is some ability in his words, Li Siben is from a humble background, and he should take a fancy to He Gongzi.

How do you stand there now, close your eyes, and recuperate?

Thinking of this, Meng Yi squeezed to Li Si's side and said softly:

"Prime Minister, I heard that the day before yesterday. Are you out of the palace with Your Majesty? ”

Li Si opened his eyes slightly, nodded and did not speak.

Meng Yi also patiently asked:

"Have you seen Gongzi He?"

Li Si glanced at Meng Yi and said:

"What? What do you Montessori do not care about the eldest son, but about an 8-year-old child? ”

Meng Yi's old face froze, and he forced out a smile and said:

"Presumably, Gongzi He's remarks are deeply valued by the prime minister."

Li Si snorted coldly:

"Gongzi He is His Majesty's Qilin'er, how can we criticize it!"

Seeing that Li Si didn't enter, Meng Yi stood aside with a sobbing old face.

At this time, Ying Zheng had already entered the main hall, and the attendant behind him was still carrying a cloth bag in his hand, and the crowd was stunned.

Ying Zheng sat still, and the ministers were silent as far as he could see.

After a while, Ying Zheng slowly spoke:

"Today, I call you to come to discuss important matters, which is related to the country, and I hope that all Aiqing can offer words and suggestions."

After saying that, with a wave of his hand, the chamberlain hurriedly took the contents of the cloth bag.

The ministers didn't know what Yingzheng meant, and thought that it had a lot to do with the things in the cloth bag, so they stretched their necks and watched.

"Hey, what is this, the color is so pure white."

"In a certain opinion, it should be some kind of medicine, presumably a foreign tribute."

"The old man disagrees, this should be the thing used in women's makeup."

"Fart, how could Your Majesty come out with the things used by women."

“......”

Ying Zheng listened to the bustling voices of the ministers, cleared his throat, and after the hall was quiet, Ying Zheng slowly spoke;

"This is refined salt."

Wow!

The hall exploded in an instant, some of their faces were shocked, and some of them were full of doubts. Hue.

"How is it possible, even the best green salt is not so white!"

"Your Majesty, don't lie to me, how can there be such a good salt in the world."

"Nonsense, this is obviously an auspicious thing from heaven to see His Majesty rule the world!"

"I think so!"

"Seconded by the Minister"

“......”

Ying Zheng's face was black, Meng Yi secretly looked at Li Si, and found that Li Si was still pretending to sleep, and he realized it in his heart at the moment.

I think that the day before yesterday, Li Si and His Majesty went to He Gongzi's place for this refined salt.

Thinking of this, Meng Yi took a step forward and said in a loud voice:

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, Daqin has obtained this thing, and he should be happy! I ask Your Majesty to reward those who contribute to this refined salt!"

Ying Zheng's eyes looked at Meng Yi, and a bit of weirdness flashed in his eyes.

Li Si, who was in a false sleep, also opened his eyes wide, looked at Meng Yi incredulously, and said secretly in his heart:

"How can this old thing be so shameless, this kind of praise can be said."

Meng Yi's actions suddenly woke up several thoughtful people in the court.

For a time, there were 7 or 8 ministers who all came out and said:

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, Daqin will be very prosperous when he obtains this thing!"

Ying Zheng waved his hand helplessly and said:

"Okay, I really don't need you to wait for hype. You have also seen this refined salt, and you have discussed and discussed, if this refined salt is sold in the market, what is the price? ”

Meng Yi still took the lead in replying:

"Your Majesty, I don't know how much such a fetish costs. If the cost is too high, then I am afraid that only noble merits can be enjoyed. ”

Ying Zheng bowed his head slightly and said:

"You don't have to think about the cost, just say the price."

After listening to this, Meng Yi said:

"If it is sold in the market, it can be sold for 10 wen a catty, so that the people can also taste the taste of refined salt. If it is sold to a foreign country, then it will be worth a hundred taels of silver and a catty, and my Great Qin treasury will not be full! ”

Ying Zheng was shocked, he didn't expect that Meng Yi, an old thing, would be so black-hearted, and he would sell it to a foreign country for a hundred taels of silver, and the cost was only 2 Qin and a half yuan.

Thinking of this, Ying Zheng nodded and said:

"What Meng Qing said is very true, and I should adopt it."

This is Liss standing up and saying;

"The minister thinks that refined salt can be divided into grades for price. Ordinary people, merchants, officials, nobles, and royals can be purchased according to the different quality of refined salt, and the price is naturally divided into grades. ”

"However, if it is sold to a foreign country, the minister thinks that the proposal of Monnesuke is appropriate."

After saying that, Li Si retreated to his original position.

Ying Zheng knew that it was time for him to settle the matter at this time, so he said loudly:

"Today, Daqin has the method of refining salt, and there can be no more private salt in Daqin, and the violators will be punished! Daqin Salt Division is supervised by Li Si, and the refined salt produced is classified according to quality. ”

"A pound of low-grade salt is 2 Qin half coins, medium salt is 1 tael of silver, and high-grade salt is 5 taels of silver. 20 taels of silver with salt!"

"With the Gentiles, only the finest salt may be used for a hundred taels of silver. 8 percent of the income goes to the state treasury, and 2 percent goes to the internal treasury. ”

The ministers understood that the advent of refined salt was unstoppable, and the Son of Heaven personally ordered it to be supervised, and refined salt would completely become the foundation of the Great Qin State.

The matter of salt production held by the family has been cut off here!

"The Son of Heaven is sage, we will obey."

After Ying Zheng left, the children of the family in the court left quickly, and Zhao Gao was smiling.

Hu Hai was puzzled and asked in a low voice:

"Why is the government order laughing?"

Zhao Gao raised his eyebrows and said:

"Shizi, your chance has come...."

At night, in Hu Hai's mansion, Hu Hai was sitting on the main seat, and Zhao Gao and the Feng family were on Hu Hai's side.

All of them were civil and military in the current dynasty, and there were nearly half of them.

When the wine was drunk, Hu Hai raised his glass and said:

"Today, I am fortunate to have the help of your uncles and Lonely, and I respect you for a cup."

Except for Zhao Gao and Feng, the other nobles were sincerely afraid to raise their glasses and drink.

Zhao Gao answered at this time:

"The eldest son, Fusu, was sent by His Majesty to Yunzhong County, and he must not rebel against the dynasty in a short period of time. Everyone here is a smart person, the eldest son Fusu is deeply affected by Confucianism, and her husband is soft-hearted. ”

"Now that Your Majesty has swept the six countries and dominated the world, how can my Great Qin Empire let a soft person take charge in the future!"

The Imperial Historian Feng Zheng rose in response:

"What Zhao Fuling said is very true, since we are gathered here, it is because Hu Hai Gongzi is virtuous and virtuous, in my opinion, we can do our best to assist Hu Hai Gongzi, and after a hundred years of the king, we will support Hu Hai Gongzi to ascend to the great treasure."

Everyone in the audience was shocked when they heard this, although they were all mentally prepared, but at this time, they suddenly put things on the table, and then thought of today's thunderous means, no one present dared to make a sound.
