"That's right, Pei Sikong, but you must not let Dayan's salt in, otherwise, we will all be finished! We really didn't think about this before, if the Great Yan Salt came in, who would buy us? When the time comes. Our clan gate valve, I'm afraid it's really going to be completely finished! ”

"Yes, yes, your majesty must let the salt of the Great Flame come in, you must! We must continue to let the people of Datang buy our salt! ”

“…….”

At this moment, the people in the lobby were completely panicked.

This is something they would never have thought of before, they really can't imagine it, it is still a super-large, seemingly impeccable strategy contributed by countless clan gatekeepers who can be called.

At last

Not only did he not gain any benefits, but he even had to lose more than half of his clan's luck.

To tell the truth, if the salt industry in the hands of the clan gate lords is yellow, then they....whether it is in terms of influence or economic strength, they will be greatly reduced.

Salt!

This is one of the clan's gatekeepers, one of the thickest branches!

In the lobby, it's a mess.

It's all panicked.

All of them are like ants on a hot pan.

Pei Lin pinched the bridge of his nose, and he sighed with great difficulty.

But, what else can he say at this time?

looked at Xiao Yu and them, lowered his head,

He can't help it!

Great Flame!

Who would have thought that Da Yan could be so strong?

….….….….….….

When the sun completely jumped out of the horizon, Chang'an was also boiling and chaotic.

Without him, because Li Jing led the army, he returned in one time.

last night

Li Jing returned to the same county overnight and began to withdraw his troops.

Everybody knows,

Da Yan is impossible to fight.

Even so, if they display it for one more day, Datang's face will be lost again.

Helpless

can only take advantage of the dark night and retreat in batches.

nature

Many people in Chang'an know the news.

An army of hundreds of thousands!

This is not a small number, and it is impossible to really draw it into pieces and not be noticeable.

Li Jing sat on horseback.

Qin Qiong, Yu Chi Jingde, Cheng Yanjin and others were still by his side.

This time

They had no heart to keep it, and no one had the heart to keep it, so they came back together.

Chang'an City, just ahead.

"Hey, tossing and turning like this, our Datang's face is really going to be gone, and the morale of our soldiers, under the influence of this time, has been depressed a lot."

Qin Qiong sighed.

"No way." Li Jing smiled bitterly: "Da Yan, this mysterious country, our Da Tang, after all, we don't see people clearly." ”

"If I had known this was the case, I wouldn't have panicked and sent troops so soon, hey....go back, go, and see Your Majesty."

"I don't know, how Your Majesty is recovering."

Li Jing said softly,

The crowd was silent, followed closely behind, and slowly entered the city.

And everything that happened in Dayan was also completely spread in Chang'an and in Datang.

When the people heard about it, they were not disappointed by the failure of Datang, but on the contrary, they breathed a sigh of relief.

They don't pay attention to what Datang has lost at all.

but

The people of Chang'an have been staring at the price of salt in the Great Flame, and they are all crazy.

Ten times!!

This is less than ten times the price of Datang salt.

This directly ignited the frenzy in the hearts of the people, who have worked hard all their lives, when have they ever seen such cheap table salt?

Ten times as much!

In other words, the people of Dayan have eaten delicious and cheap salt, and they are still eating expensive salt in Datang.

This made the people of Datang explode.

They felt like fools, and they were kept in captivity by the clan gatekeepers.

I didn't expect....the resentment turned out to be myself!

"Ten times the price, ten times the difference, ten times! Damn, our Datang salt, who the hell is going to buy it? Don't talk about it, let's go to Puxian County and buy salt for Dayan! ”

"Damn, is this news true or false? Is the salt of Dayan so cheap? Oh my god, crazy, really crazy, in comparison, the original price of our Datang is simply a fool. ”

"Really, it's true! Let me tell you, the salt of Dayan is not only cheap, but the taste, my God, is delicious, and it looks like a snowflake, give me a flatbread, and I can eat it with salt. ”

"Who said no, I just came from Puxian, hehehe, I bought some of this inflammation, the taste is amazing!"

"What's that? You have, let's see. ”

Look at a fart, I'm just a little, I can guarantee that as long as you see it, you will definitely snatch it away for me, hum, want to eat? Want to see it? Let's go to the Great Flame! ”

“…….”

In the evening of this day, many people in Chang'an rushed to Pu County.

Some people smell the business secrets, while others simply want to buy some for their own consumption, of course, there are many people in the lobby who are curious, is the salt of Da Yan really like the rumored one....exploded!

….….….….….….

Imperial.

Li Shimin also came down in the evening.

When he opened his eyes, the eldest grandson Wuji, Li Jing, Cheng Yanjin, Pei Lian, Fang Xuanling and others were all standing beside him.

"Your Majesty, are you awake?"

"Are you feeling better?"

Empress Eldest Sun asked with great concern.

Li Shimin nodded slightly weakly: "It's okay." ”

He swept over the people in front of him, and his eyes fell on Li Jing, Cheng Yanjin and others.

The whole person was a little sluggish.

But finally,

He just sighed heavily, didn't say anything, and closed his eyes in some pain.

"No soldiers were hurt, were they?"

Li Shimin asked with a trembling voice.

"No, Your Majesty, we're all back."

Li Jing replied.

Li Shimin nodded: "It's good to come back." ”

After that, the place was all silent.

The eldest grandson Wuji, Pei Lian, Xiao Yu and the three of them looked at each other, and they all swallowed their saliva, and finally Pei Lin spoke.

After all, among the clan, he has the closest relationship with Li Shimin.

"Your Majesty, the salt of Da Yan caught us off guard."

"However, although Da Yan was not solved this time, many of the heads of the clan gate lords came to find their ministers earlier today."

"After all, this time the clan gate valve has paid a lot of price in order to cooperate with our Datang."

"Although there is no credit, but hard work is absolute! Also, this time, these clan gates have also lost the market for a large piece of salt in Dayan, so they say....so they beg the minister to ask His Majesty for a word, they think, don't let Dayan's salt circulate to our Datang. ”

"Otherwise, these clans are really going to break their bones, after all, the price of salt in Dayan is really too low."

Eldest Sun Wuji said slowly in a low voice.

Xiao Yu and the eldest grandson Wuji, their eyes were solemn.

The others frowned, this proposal....

Li Shimin opened his eyes again.

"Xuan Ling, pharmacist, what do you think?" He asked in a humble voice.

"Your Majesty, no!"

Fang Xuanling didn't hesitate at all, and said directly: "This matter of Dayan salt is estimated to spread throughout the entire Tang Dynasty soon, if our imperial court is so blocked, not allowing cheap and high-quality salt to come in, and continuing to let our people in Datang eat the high-priced and unpalatable salt of the Shi clan, it is estimated that no matter who it is, there will be complaints." ”

"When the time comes, the people's hearts will yearn for Dayan more and more, our Datang is already difficult, and it will be even more difficult to do this!"

"In the end, the people's hearts will be lost, and Datang will be defeated without a fight!"

Fang Xuanling roared.

"That's right, Your Majesty!"

Li Jing echoed: "Your Majesty, this matter still needs to be remembered for a long time, you know, we in the Tang Dynasty, hundreds of people are already yearning for the life of Dayan." ”

"If it's....if it's one-size-fits-all, it will directly order the circulation of Dayan salt, not to mention the clan gatekeeper, even if it's the imperial court, it has to be lifted by the people."

"The people....this, our people in Datang are really in a lot of hardship compared to the people of Dayan."

"Seeing that spring ploughing is about to take place, our Datang people are going to start planting crops, but the people of Dayan can harvest a crop of grain and then plant it, which makes our Datang people already very envious."

"If this aspect is restricted, if this time the Great Yan is not chaotic, our Datang will be in chaos, Your Majesty!"

Du Ru said in a deep voice.

Cheng Yanjin, Qin Qiong, Li Jing and others all nodded again and again.

Pei Lin and Xiao Yu, their faces were slightly dark.

They also know that what Fang Xuanling and Li Jing said is reasonable, and it is impossible to completely ban them!

The imperial court could not come forward to issue decrees.

After being silent for a long time, Li Shimin nodded slightly.

"Pei Lian, Xuan Ling and the pharmacist, they are right."

"But....but Xuanling Pharmacist, this time the clan gate valve is also good to my Tang Dynasty's heart, they have indeed suffered a great loss, and in the future, to deal with Da Yan, they still need the imperial court and the clan gate valve to join forces."

"We can't just watch the clan gate valve suffer losses and be indifferent."

"So, this year's imperial examination, why don't you slow it down? Let's take a cheap job for the time being. ”

Li Shimin said weakly.

As soon as these words came out,

Fang Xuanling and Li Jing's faces froze, but after a long time, they both nodded and did not refute: "Your Majesty....Shengming...."

They also knew that the loss of the clan gate lord was great, and the imperial court could not lack these allies after all.

What should be made up is that it has to be made up.

Pei Lin and Xiao Yu, they glanced at each other, and they all knew that this was already the best situation.

"Thank you, Your Majesty! I believe that those scholars know Your Majesty's hard work, and they will inevitably understand the court and continue to share your Majesty's worries. ”

Pei said in a deep voice.

The corners of Li Shimin's eyes trembled.

Silence again.

"Okay, spring ploughing is coming, and there are more things, so you all go and get busy."

"As for the matter of Da Yan....Da Yan, let's discuss it slowly in the future."

After a long time, Li Shimin was speaking.

He closed his eyes again.

He felt tired again.

Emperor Great Yan!

Horrified again and again, he was about to kill himself!

Li Shimin knew that his body needed to rest, otherwise, something really would happen.

Emperor Great Yan!

I haven't met him yet, but....he is holding himself down, unable to move, and even having difficulty breathing, Li Shimin feels that he is about to suffocate.

When Fang Xuanling, Li Jing, Pei Lin and others heard this, they all bowed down and quietly retreated.

They all left in silence.

In everyone's heart, there is a big stone.

And unfortunately,

The name of this big stone is the same, that is....Great Flame!

Da Yan, Da Yan, you are so powerful, the future Datang, what should I do?.

…….….….….….

Great Flame.

Yanyun City.

Li Kuan strolled among the fields outside the city.

Winter is slowly passing, and spring is coming.

Although Yanyun City is still a little cold, it is full of spring, and it is also quietly germinating.

Under the cold, slightly stiff soil, many grass shoots came out, and the winter wheat in the fields began to grow three times a day.

It's really three times a day.

The sun is getting hotter and hotter, and the heat in the wind is starting to appear.

"Your Majesty, now our salt in the Great Yan has gone to the right path."

"Our people in Dayan, whether in the town or in the villages below, have all enjoyed the convenience, and in addition, many people in Chang'an have also gone to Puxian to buy salt, and then pulled it to Datang to sell."

"Although the Tang Dynasty did not prohibit our Dayan salt, the clan gate valve is also suppressing our salt in private, but....The name of Dayan salt has spread throughout the Tang Dynasty, and hundreds of people are extremely yearning."

"But, generally speaking, the only places where our Dayan salt really spreads are some areas around Pu County."

"A little farther away, you won't be able to reach it."

"Your Majesty, do we want to open a store in Datang? In this way, our salt will bring at least tens of millions of wealth every year. ”

Guo Shoujing followed beside him and reported.

A month has passed.

Dayan Salt has also truly established its position as a giant in salt.

Datang Salt, in front of Dayan Salt, is like rotten wood, without any resistance at all.

In just one month, Puxian County will become a thriving trading place.

Many people in Pu County have started a business of selling salt.

As the saying goes, rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, rely on the water to eat the water.

Puxian County has a unique geographical location, and naturally the people are on the road to prosperity.

but

Dayan salt, with its prominent reputation, has spread throughout the Tang Dynasty, but after all, it is still few.

After all, it only relies on the people to sell, and the scale cannot be opened.

Li Kuan smiled and shook his head.

"No, first, if we go to open a store in Datang now, the suppression of the clan gate valve is indispensable."

"Second, only if you can't get it can you make people commotion, and now this situation is quite good."

"The people are selling salt, so that the people of Datang are not too unfamiliar, but the scarcity of the quantity will make the people of Datang, who have an incomparably huge demand, even more eager."

"It's been a long time, this is a joint in the hearts of the people, when the time comes, we really want to go south, this matter may touch the people of the Tang Dynasty to take the initiative to surrender."
