Smell the sound.

Ye Jun was stunned.

Knowing that Xia Huang would ask like this, I didn't expect him to be so direct. There was no Prelude at all.

Salt has always been one of the main financial revenues of the Xia state. The Xia emperor knew the value of fine salt refining.

It's such a magical refining technique to turn poisonous salt into fine salt, let alone Xia Huang.

If you let the world know, it will inevitably be a competition.

Even if there is a war, it will not hesitate.

Ye Jun is the only one who doesn't take the refining method seriously.

But Xia Huang said he wanted him to give the refining method. To tell the truth, ye Jun really didn't have such a plan.

Seeing ye Jun's silence, Xia Huangwei narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "don't want to?"

Ye Jun worshipped and said, "father, if you can contribute to the country, your children and ministers should be willing, but your children and ministers have two problems."

Xia Huang said, "tell me."

Ye Jun slowly opened his mouth and said, "my son knows the importance of salt to the Xia state, and the refining method can also be offered. But has my father ever thought that once the fine salt is controlled by the imperial court, the people can really eat the fine salt?"

Xia Huang frowned, "don't worry about this. I will order to adjust the salt price. There will never be a situation where the people have no salt to eat."

Ye Jun said again, "isn't my father worried about the leakage of refining?"

This sentence, when it comes to Xia Huang's heart.

Fine salt refining technology exceeds that of other countries at present. If ye Jun gives his technology, he can hardly guarantee that it will not be disclosed.

But if you hold it in Ye Jun's hands, it won't leak?

The Xia emperor asked himself.

next.

He looked at Ye Jun, "if you don't hand over the fine salt refining technique, can you guarantee that it won't leak?"

Ye Jun said, "no, there is no airtight wall in the world. My son and minister can not be leaked in a short time."

Say.

He paused and continued: "father emperor, as far as my son's ministers know, our Xia country has the most salt mines, most of which are in the hands of officials, but others continue to sell private salt, just like tianmeng."

"Isn't it strange to my father that local officials don't know where the private salt of tianmeng comes from?"

"I can assure you that if you dedicate the refining method, it will fall into the hands of tianmeng soon. At that time, tianmeng can also extract fine salt, and even countries may get this method. At that time, our fine salt will no longer be competitive. "

Actually.

Ye Jun has said it very tactfully.

Xia Huang knew the meaning of Ye Jun's words and was telling him that local officials had colluded with tianmeng.

"Tell me what you think!"

Ye Jun said in a deep voice, "father, imagine how much fine salt there will be if the refining method is not leaked in a year."

"At that time, fine salt can be sold to other countries at a high price through merchants. In a year, the state of Xia can flourish. At that time, even if the method is leaked out, it doesn't hurt. The right officials will make contributions to the industry."

Smell the sound.

Xia Huang thought for a moment, "how can you ensure that the art of refining is not leaked?"

Ye Jun said with a smile, "build a salt farm and separate the refining techniques one by one. Everyone only knows some of them. In addition, all workers entering the salt farm must sign a confidentiality agreement and send heavy troops around the salt farm."

Speaking of that.

He paused and continued: "father emperor, this can be described as three carvings with one arrow. First, it can crush the collusion between salt officials and tianmeng."

Second, let tianmeng no longer have private salt to sell, which is undoubtedly breaking their way to make money.

Third, making the profits of salt completely transparent can quickly improve national strength.

Xia Huang nodded, obviously agreeing with Ye Jun's words. These three benefits made him unable to refuse.

Salt officials do make a lot of profits for the imperial court every year, but they also profit for themselves.

The market is flooded with private salt. Xia Huang has long wanted to punish salt officials, and has been suffering from no way.

Now the opportunity has finally come.

According to Ye Jun's words, it can indeed bring greater benefits than controlling salt in the hands of salt officials.

A moment of silence.

Xia Huang said, "jun'er, I can give you all the salt mines, but the refining method must not be disclosed within two years. Can you do it?"

two years?

Ye Jun said with a wry smile, "my ministers try their best."

Say.

He suddenly thought of something and continued: "father, the establishment and sale of salt farms will be handed over to Shen Wansan. The children will not participate in these small things."

"In addition, salt mining can continue to be handed over to salt officials. They are only responsible for mining and transportation. They don't have to intervene in refining and selling. In this way, even if they hide salt blocks privately, they are worthless in front of fine salt. I believe no one will be willing to risk their lives to steal worthless things."

The Xia emperor nodded with great satisfaction, "the salt mine is located all over the Xia state. If you want to build a salt farm, the site selection is very important."

Ye Jun said with a faint smile, "the salt farm is built in the west mountain. Salt mines everywhere transport salt blocks to the west mountain."

"Is it too costly? Why not build salt farms everywhere? Wouldn't it be better?"

"Father, if you want to keep the refining method secret for two years, you can only build the salt farm in the west mountain. Only in this way can you better manage and ensure the safety of the salt farm."

Xia Huang said, "you boy, always bring me surprises. This time, the surprises are too big."

"According to your words, salt is the economic lifeline of the country. I'll give it to you. Don't let me down."

Ye Jun said with a smile, "don't be like this, father. There's a lot of pressure on my ministers!"

Xia Huang looked cold for a moment. "If there is any mistake in the salt, let's see how I deal with you."

Just then.

Gaode entered the heart nourishing hall and hurried forward, "Your Majesty, the long princess is coming."

Xia Huang flicked his sleeves, turned and sat in front of the letter, "Xuan."

Now.

With the refining method, the fine salt of the state of Xia will shake the world and solve the corruption of salt officials at the same time.

The most important thing is to cut off tianmeng's financial resources and reduce the income of salt, which will directly hurt tianmeng's muscles and bones.

At the thought that Li Yunyao would hand over the tianmeng bonus next, Xia Huang was even happier.

With his understanding of Ye Jun, as long as he enters tianmeng, sooner or later tianmeng will stir up chicken and dog uneasiness.

At that time, we will completely eradicate this great trouble for him.

Without the encroachment of tianmeng on Xia's economy, the national strength will certainly improve rapidly.

At the same time, he can give his hand to the aristocratic family attached to tianmeng and completely hold the imperial power in his own hands.

While the Xia emperor was meditating, the shadow of the long Princess appeared in the hall.

"Sister Chen, meet your majesty."

Ye Yunyao leaned over and bowed. While talking, she glanced at Ye Jun.

Xia Huang said, "get back on your feet. You know what I'm looking for you for?"

Ye Yunyao nodded, "I know!"

Xia Huang forcibly suppressed the joy in his heart and said in a deep voice, "since you know, fulfill your promise!"

Ye Yunyao said, "back to your majesty, before entering the palace, my younger sister has sent someone to send the tianmeng bonus to King Xiaoyao."

Say.

She paused and continued, "sister Chen came to ask her majesty to resign."

Xia Huang's pupil shrinks and his heart is shocked. Ye Yunyao's move this time is a little too light.

This is not her consistent style. The more so, Xia Huang feels more uneasy.

When things go wrong, there will be demons.

Ye Yunyao gave up everything about tianmeng so easily.

Is this true?

untrue.

Anyway, Xia Huang doesn't believe it. With his understanding of Ye Yunyao, it won't end easily.

She now asked to leave, afraid that tianmeng would be bad for ye Jun.
