Chapter 554 Returning to Salt Island
Qian Hua put the blueprint of the salt drying method into his arms very carefully, then cupped his hands and said, "Then...you guys take care. I believe we will never see each other again. The old man is old and I don't know how long he can live. This remarkable achievement is all thanks to the help of my little brother, and the old man bids farewell."

After finishing speaking, Qian Hua turned around and left the inn. Everyone except Lei Tianxin breathed a sigh of relief. Everyone would be safe when Qian Hua left.As for the blueprint of the salt drying method that Qian Hua took away...it is optional, because Zong Xin originally planned to make the salt drying method public, and Qian Hua let Qian Hua take the scapegoat to memorize it, which saved a lot of trouble.

Lei Tianxin took a deep breath and said: "Little brother, this is your business, why are you taking advantage of that old bastard?"

"I took advantage of him? Hehehehe..." Zong Xin suddenly gave a cheap smile, and the others also laughed.Lei Tianxin was the only one who seemed to be in the fog, not knowing what was going on.

"Hey~ let's go back to the mansion first. I fought so hard just now, and my reputation is not very good, so as not to cause trouble." Lei Tianxin still has a little self-knowledge. No matter where he goes, his reputation is not good, even if no one knows him there. Lei Tianxin, after a few months, his reputation will still be bad.

Lei Tianxin's bodyguards stood bustling outside the inn, all of them were seriously injured, it was Qian Hua's mercy, otherwise these bodyguards would not be able to catch his sword energy at all.

After escorting Lei Tianxin and his party back to the mansion, everyone ran to treat their injuries.Zong Xin and his group were also taken aback. Lei Tianxin is called a rich man... He built a huge mansion outside of Yandao. The pleasant fragrance, Zong Xin knew it was golden nanmu when he smelled it.There are also various exquisite jade ornaments in Lei Tianxin's study room. How much did this house cost?I can't even imagine.

Tian Ya said in admiration: "Good~ What a nice house. Even my father can't afford such an expensive house."

"Your Highness the Third Highness is serious, how can this place compare with the Imperial Palace?" Lei Tianxin was a little shy, but he knew that Tian Ya was right, even Guo Wei was reluctant to spend such money.But now they do have money, because many people don't have cash, so they exchange salt with local valuables, and Lei Tianxin of course accepts all of them.

Zong Xin said depressedly: "Third brother, how much money have you collected? Tell me the truth, how much money do you have now?"

"Lack of money hurts feelings. You trust me to hand over the business of Yandao to me. Of course I will do my best. But it's too late now. Qian Hua has already taken away the design drawing of the salt drying method. Trust Wu Yue's side." We will also open a salt factory, and then we will have to fight a price war, not as much as we are earning now."

Zong Dao said, "Third brother didn't know something, Qian Hua actually did me a favor. The method of drying salt has already been announced, but you don't know it. Zhao Kuangyin and the others have already come, right? They came here to deal with this matter. Salt Island will continue to be open, but the salt drying method will be announced. I asked them to teach the salt drying method to all coastal residents. I believe this matter has been almost done, so the salt drying method It's no secret."

"If you are full, you can give it to me if you think there is too much money. You can't waste it like this." Lei Tianxin said dissatisfied: "It's hard to get such a business, and our Leiwang Mansion can carry forward, but you actually cut off your own money." road?"

"So what?" Zong Xin said gently, "Anyway, this business is mine. I just think I have too much money. Are you killing me?"

Lei Tianxin originally wanted to say a few more words as an elder brother, but Zong Xin forced him back. Now Lei Tianxin is speechless. If it weren't for the strength of Lei Wangfu's troops, how could he be qualified to earn so much money? ?What's more, what Zong Xin said was right, the entire Salt Island was his business, and no one else had the right to express his opinion on what he wanted to do.

"Does your father know about this?"

"I know, he is very supportive." Zong said: "Not only my father, but my father-in-law is also very supportive."

Lei Tianxin thought for a while, and then asked: "You mean Guo Wei? He also supports you to disclose the salt method? You must have drunk too much. How could he support it?"

"The secret must not be leaked. It is useless to tell you about this matter." Zong Dao said, "The situation is complicated now, and I have to let the income of Yandao drop sharply. Only in this way can we delay the time, and what is needed most now is time. More What's more, we have made a lot of money, and we can't spend it all in ten lifetimes, so what's the use of so much money?"

"That's true." Although Lei Tianxin was unhappy, he didn't want to refute Zong Xin's words.Indeed, with Lei Tianxin's martial arts, it's useless no matter how much money he earns, any expert can steal all his money, so Lei Tianxin hires dozens of martial arts masters to protect him at any time, just because he is afraid Some people are jealous of their wealth and come to plot against them.

Lei Tianxin also felt that he had enough money. Although the conditions here were good, they were not as good as those in Chang'an. Lei Tianxin actually wanted to go back to Chang'an and return to Leiwang Mansion to be his little prince.The main reason is that Lei Hong is in Chang'an, and he goes out with a few dog legs all day to tease women. No one in Chang'an except Bu Xiangyang dares to provoke him.

Of course, Lei Tianxin was still a little scared when he thought of Bu Xiangyang, because Bu Xiangyang had already taught him many times, and Lei Hong didn't care.After all, Bu Xiangyang is the leader of the martial arts alliance. He wanted to beat him when he saw him flirting with women.

"Little brother, shall we go back to King Lei's Mansion next?"

Zong Xin shook his head and said, "I still have work to do, and you can't go back easily. Although the secret of the salt drying method has been made public, people in the world still have a great demand for salt. At most, the price and export volume will be affected, but Salt Island is still very profitable. You have tens of thousands of troops in other people's territory, and the emperor is far away. If you are a local emperor here, no one dares to provoke you. What do you do when you go back to Chang'an? Just go back and have a look once in a while, and stay here all the time. Chang'an is also meaningless."

Lei Tianxin thought for a while, and felt that the younger brother's words were suspected of fooling himself.If my martial arts were as strong as my father's, there would be no problem staying here, but now my martial arts are not bad, what if someone came to steal my business in Yandao?As long as you come to a master at random, the money you earn will be taken away by others. What's the point of that?
Lei Tian said: "No, it's too unsafe here, it's easy to make people jealous. You also know that my martial arts are not very good, and I don't know how I died after staying here for a long time."

"I know your difficulties, but you can rest assured that my father will send another [-] soldiers to Yandao as guards, and my Ao Gang will also move away from here. Anyway, there are still many things, let's talk about it tomorrow I got hurt a little today, I have to go to bed early."

"It's fine, it's up to you." Lei Tianxin felt a little uncomfortable when he saw Zong Xin. This little brother is too powerful, and because of his existence, he made himself inhuman.But there is such a little brother who has a lot of face, and if it wasn't for him, he wouldn't be able to make so much money.

Lei Tianxin immediately ordered someone to prepare the best wing room for Zong Xin and his party. Lei Tianxin couldn't arrange it himself, because he was afraid of the dark at night, so he couldn't order someone to go to Xinzhou City to bring two women back to sleep with him. Don't be afraid.

In the early morning of the next day, Zong Xin and his party set off from Lei Tianxin's mansion to Yandao. In fact, the distance was very short. Lei Tianxin almost took over all the sea area near Yandao. step, there is no pardon for violating the killing.

On both sides of the beach, Lei Tianxin ordered people to build a lot of warehouses for storing salt, and these warehouses have never been full, and there will always be people who buy again and again, because salt is a necessity of life, and the freight along the way is also very high No matter how low the price of salt is, it is still the most profitable business in the world, because these salts cost nothing at all, seawater is inexhaustible, and this business can last as long as it lasts.

Sail from the beach to Salt Island by boat, which is very close to the land, so it doesn't take much time.Zong Xin changed his monk robes and cassocks from the morning, and took everyone to Yandao. The merchants on the shore were dumbfounded. They never thought that Master Zongxin would come to Yandao in person. The boss has rarely come back here.

Zong Xin saw it when he stepped into Salt Island. Everyone stood neatly to welcome the backstage boss, Master Zong Xin.Zong Xin was also very happy to see the thousands of brothers from the Ao Gang welcoming him neatly.

The frail scholar Zhao Pu immediately stepped forward and cupped his hands, "See Master Zong Xin."

Zhao Kuangyin and Youyun Shibaqi also stayed in Yandao for a while, seeing the master's wolves completely unable to restrain their inner excitement, a dozen wolves rushed towards Zongxin at the same time, but because they were too big, they could only Acting like a baby next to Zong Xin, I dare not really rush forward, because these wargs can almost eat half of Zong Xin's body in one bite, and stand taller than Zong Xin, so excitement is one thing, and wargs are still very exciting. sense of proportion.

"See Master." X18
Youyun Eighteen Riders immediately knelt in front of Zongxin, a little far away, because Zongxin was completely surrounded by wolves.Thousands of people from the Ao Gang surrendered at the same time behind them. Everyone was dressed in clothes similar to monks, with half of their arms exposed in white and yellow. However, these people did not shave their heads. They just knew that their boss was Zong Xin, so they changed their heads collectively. This look.

Zong Dao: "The frail scholars are doing well. The number of the Ao Gang has grown again, and everyone is physically strong. They should have practiced martial arts."

"That is, the work on Salt Island is not heavy. Except for those who have to work, everyone else is training on the island." Zhao Pu said: "The things ordered by the master have been done, and all the coastal villages on the border of the Southern Han Dynasty have been dispatched. People have been there, and all the sun-dried salt methods have been taught to them.”

"The method of drying salt was originally simple, and things are done very well. How many people are there in the Ao Gang now?"

"Five thousand." For better development, Zhao Pu changed the original three thousand to five thousand. In fact, considering the current economic strength of Salt Island, it is easy to raise tens of thousands of horses.But the soldiers are good but not many, so [-] troops are completely sufficient.

Zong said: "Well, let's go into the room and discuss the next thing."

"this way please."

Zong Xin waved his hand, and the eighteen worgs naturally scattered to find their owners.Xiao Bai stayed by Zong Xin's side, this has always been the procedure.
