I Own a Garden with One Hundred Herbs

The magistrate of Wanzhou transferred the officers and soldiers of the government office and the arrester Kuaitongtong away, in the name of assisting King Xun to investigate the salt case, but it also meant that Zhe Yu was not allowed to participate in the salt case.

This change came too fast.

And what Zhe Yu has to do is to break through all difficulties. Fortunately, there are still Nanzhang and his brothers who can use them.

Besides, they have been in the black market before, and they are already familiar with Wanzhou, a huge underground city-state.

The news that Tie Lanxin brought was, Now salt has started to circulate in the black market, and a bucket of salt has reached five taels of silver.

What is this concept?

Historically, during the period of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, a bucket of rice cost five Wen, and a bucket of salt cost about 20 Wen; during Wu Zetian’s period, a bucket of salt cost 500 Wen. Thousands of copper coins are combined into one or two silver coins.

Even taking Wu Zetian's time as an example, the price of salt in Wanzhou is already ten times higher.

Zhe Yu stood under the tree with his hands behind his back, The world is full of prosperity, all for profit. Those merchants are hoarding for profit. It's just the beginning. Find their lair while protecting yourself.

Nan Yang knows the situation best: Now only a small number of businessmen show up, and the transaction is also fluid. So it is more difficult.

Tie Lanxin's eyes rolled, Let Zhenyi join in, he is good at light work and good at tracking.

This is true, but Baicaoshi noticed that Nanchao's complexion was not very good-looking. Also, in the face of a rival in love, who can accept it calmly? She said, Shinichi has an arrangement.

Protect Hongqu, otherwise Hongqu is a weak woman, and it is inevitable that someone will move her mind. Baicaoshi did not talk to Tie Lanxin about the golf course.

This arrangement is feasible. Uncharacteristically, Zheyu expressed the opposite opinion to Baicaoshi, Jinyi's joining will be more helpful for tracking. On the red song side, please send two capable brothers from NTU to support.

Tie Lanxin was overjoyed, her two little hands were about to clap together, but when she caught sight of Nancha's livid face, she put it down embarrassingly.

Afterwards, everyone exchanged news, and Tie Lanxin and Nan Yang left.

Zhe Yu and Baicaoshi glanced at each other, The purification of these poisonous salts must be accelerated.

The situation in Wanzhou is changing.

On October 20, the imperial court received an urgent report from King Xun, and ordered to send salt from Ganzhou and Boyang to help Wanzhou. However, it took another four or five days for the imperial decree to reach these two places, and it took at least two days to transport salt from the two places to Wanzhou.

Wanzhou in crisis is waiting anxiously.

After the academy ran out of salt, Quanjufang took on a new task, which was to provide three meals for all the teachers and students of the academy. Of course, this is paid. Although the three meals are priced lower than the market price, they managed to get into the academy.

Shen Li had already set off, King Xun received a letter from the pigeon, and the court's plan was exactly the same as Shen Li's previous suggestion. So Shen Li set off to Ganzhou first. In this way, the salt may be shipped in advance.

The price of salt on the black market reached a bucket of ten taels of silver.

On October 21st, the price of a bucket of salt on the black market reached a hundred taels of silver.

The fertilization project on the golf course is over, but the porridge continues. Some people got the news and wanted to find a job to do it. But the stadium had nothing to do, so they took out their own rice in exchange for salted porridge.

Under the order of Ying Zhexun, the gate of Wanzhou implemented a semi-closed policy. That is, only allowed in, not allowed out. This is to prevent businessmen who make waves from absconding with money.

At the same time, the salt collection operation was suspended, because the wealthy households and common people in the city had no salt left, so he focused his energy on cracking down on illegal salt in the black market.

Poor King Xun, the rheumatism only got better, and his mouth was full of blisters again. Princess Xun suggested to go to the Golden Elephant Medical Center to find a little genius doctor to prescribe some medicine.

As a result, when he arrived at the medical center, Baicaoshi was not there, and the green-headed man received him.

Where is Bai girl?

Green-headed Man rolled his eyelids, She's not here, I think it's the same.

What is she doing? Can I ask her for a consultation? With the experience of Wushao Shejiu and Quanjufang, Ying Zhexun now only trusts Baicaoshi.

The green-headed man took another look at Ying Zhexun, thinking that this person is Shishi's rotten peach blossom? It is false to see a doctor, but it is true to have other pictures? I am her master, and I taught her medical skills. Do you see a doctor or not?

Why are you fighting with us... The subordinates behind Ying Zhexun couldn't stand it, and were about to reprimand him, but Ying Zhexun waved his hand to stop him. He didn't believe that Baicaoshi would have such an arrogant master, so he got up and said goodbye, Since Miss Bai is not here, I will come back another day.

Turn right when you go out, don't send it off.

Even the tone of speech is exactly the same. Ying Zhexun immediately turned back, Doctor, where is Baicaoshi?

**

On the mountain behind the academy, Baicaoshi has completed the last process, distillation.

In the pottery bowl, there is crystal clear white fine salt.

It seems that after tedious purification, the poisonous salt has become fine salt.

She showed it to Zhe Yu as if offering a treasure, Boom, boom, you're done.

What a precious salt, Zhe Yu twisted a grain of salt, wanted to taste it, but was knocked down by Baicaoshi.

Just one, there will be no problem.

But Baicaoshi didn't want him to take risks, for fear that the poison would not be completely removed. She took the salt herself, and dropped a kiss on her finger.

It wasn't actually a kiss, but Zhe Yu tasted the salt in her hand.

Baicaoshi raised her head hastily, and saw her surprise and uneasiness in Zhe Yu's amber eyes.

No more poison. Zhe Yu said, This is all thanks to Shi Shi.

Baicaoshi turned around quickly, pinching the fingertips of her left and right hands, her heart beating like a drum. We did it together. Then...how?

The corners of Zhe Yu's lips curled up, unconsciously, Turn around, I'll tell you.

Baicaoshi wondered if his face now turned into a certain part of a monkey, how could he dare to be seen by Zhe Yu? There is still a lot of salt that has not been purified, let's continue to work.

Zhe Yu didn't care, held her by the shoulder and made her face his eyes. Shishi, am I that scary?

Baicaoshi shook her head foolishly, her amber eyes were so beautiful that people could not wake up, she blurted out, How come? Yu Bao, you are the best person in the world.

Zhe Yu suddenly raised her chin lightly and stared at her. Baicaoshi opened her mouth nervously, and then fell into a grain of salt.

Give it back to you.

Baicao Poetry: ...

Is there such a tease? bad guy!

While feeling annoyed, Zhe Yu said again: Shishi, you too, just like salt.

You are also the best person in the world and you are worth as much as salt.

Although we have purified some salt, according to the current ratio, the salt is not enough to sustain the consumption of Wanzhou people. So the next thing we have to do is to force those salt dealers to hand over the salt themselves.

The topic has changed, and the charming atmosphere just now has disappeared without a trace, as if nothing happened just now.

How do you force the salt dealers and profiteers? Baicaoshi asked.

It depends on you, King Xun, you have to go there.
