Houmen Fenghua: Meet the best evil mother-in-law

Chapter 540
Emperor Mingguang was furious.

He was originally constrained by the family because of the problem of salt, but he didn't expect that they had discovered a new way to make salt, and they were still hiding it, trying to manipulate him in various ways.

Emperor Mingguang ordered Li Jin, Prince of Jin County, to investigate the matter strictly.

Not long after he was grounded, Li Jin, the king of Jin County who had been sacked by an errand, took office again, but this time, he was not very happy in his heart.

That's right, Prince Jin Li Jin really wanted to lift the ban as soon as possible, but who would want to take on such a sensitive job as Yan?

What's more, one of the people who cooperated with him was the Wei family, a big salt merchant in Ming Dynasty.

He didn't know about Huyan, but Li Jin, King of Jin County, knew that since Huyan was already a secret that the big families didn't need to hide, then the Wei family must know.

Li Jin, king of Jin County, thought over and over again, revealed the news to his subordinates, and passed it to Ziwei's family, telling them to quickly clean up Huyan's tail, and Emperor Mingguang was about to "do it".

The Wei family was frightened, and hurriedly took action, picking up the matter of their family in Huyan.

On the other hand, the other salt merchants felt a little strange. Although the Wei family was not as good as the Lou family, they were ranked among the salt merchants. What was the reason for such a sudden move?

"You said, did he get any news?"

Master Ma looked confused: "What news?"

"Do you still need to ask? If there is no news, why is there such a big movement in the Wei family?"

"This……"

A group of people discussed it and found it reasonable, and started to deal with the lake salt in their hands.

Everyone handled it quietly. The salt merchant Shen's family thought that they had encountered a big bargain, so they hurriedly bought all the low-priced lake salt into their own hands, and waited to compete with the current Lou's family.

However, at this moment, officers and soldiers rushed over and surrounded their yard tightly.

Master Shen looked confused: "Master Guan, who are you?"

Beside Li Jin, King of Jin County, the eunuch held a secret decree, saying that King Jin County was ordered by Emperor Mingguang to thoroughly investigate the deception of Lake Salt, and it has now been found out...

Master Shen's face turned pale on the spot, and he suddenly realized, why did he grab so many "low-priced lake salt" recently, because of this? !

Damn!

……

"The Shen family, a great salt merchant, was greedy for the convenience of official salt, repaying the suffering of rock salt, and profiting from lake salt... Now it has been found out that all 136 members of the family have been imprisoned and will be tried on a date. I hereby announce to the world that This is a warning to the people of the world."

The eldest maid finished reading the headlines in "Daming Daily" in autumn, and cleverly told Gu Qingling about the other gossip she found out.

Gu Qingling nodded, indicating that she understood.

She did not expect that the aristocratic families in this world had already discovered the existence of "Lake Salt", but they hid "Lake Salt" for some unreliable purpose.

She just said, the rock salt production is so low, how can it meet the needs of so many people in this world, the original problem lies here.

Gu Qingling also knows that salt is expensive, but salt and iron have always been the property of the government, so they are very sensitive.

Even in Gu Qingling's previous life, salt was still strictly controlled by the state.

She didn't want to touch it at first, but who let someone touch her darling, she felt uncomfortable, and wanted to get a Shang Fang sword back for her precious granddaughter?

Salt is okay, it's related to people's livelihood, and it won't make the royal people sensitive; but this iron...

Gu Qingling said that no matter how many iron smelting methods she has, before she marries into the royal family, this matter can only be temporarily "rested".

Wait until she has the status of a royal family, and then slowly unfold.

Li Wenchong was busy with the salt mine over there, and Gu Qingling was not idle either. She didn't have enough people, and after lending people to Li Wenchong, it made things worse.

Gu Qingling decided to increase the absorption of "talents".

On this day, "Jinling Weekly" suddenly published a news that Mrs. Yao paid a lot of money to recruit skilled craftsmen from all over the world.

"This old lady, what do you mean? Why did you suddenly think of the craftsman?"

"Yes, can craftsmen also make money?"

"Could it be that they want to open some kind of workshop? Don't the Yao family like to open all kinds of shops? Their family's Jackie Chan shop has produced a lot of good things."

Thinking of the things in Wangzi Jackie Chan's grocery store, many ordinary people started talking.

In the past, everyone thought that craftsmen were not good at it. Is it because craftsmen are similar to prostitutes and have no land of their own, and they don't have any serious errands.

The owner invites you, and you can make money only if you have a job.

If no one invites you, you will go hungry.

If you don't do well, you will be rejected by the master.

But if you think about it carefully, which of those gadgets in Wangzi Jackie Chan's grocery store are not the "creative ideas" of craftsmen?
Pigeon chess, checkers, and the children's sandbox that can write without paper.

It is the paper that is getting cheaper and cheaper now, replacing toilet paper for toilets, newspapers that every household can afford, and children's enlightenment building blocks...

Which of these things was not made by craftsmen?

"Oh, let's not talk about it. If you don't think about it carefully, you really didn't notice that the craftsmen are so capable. The things they make affect every aspect of our lives."

"Yes, the cups for eating, the pigeons for sitting, the chess for playing, and the enlightenment things for children... Is there any one that is not made by a craftsman? I remember that the business of Wangzi Jackie Chan's grocery store is very good. Inside and outside the city, as soon as a new product comes out, everyone will rush to buy it. No wonder Mrs. Yao wants to recruit people, probably because there are too many buyers and not enough people."

"possible."

……

How did they know that Gu Qingling really didn't lack such low-level personnel.She held a "craftsman's workshop" in her hand, and they were responsible for designing the things for Wangzi Jackie Chan's grocery store. After the design was approved, the things would be handed over to the Yao family's partners for production.

Quietly, Gu Qingling found a lot of "substitute workshops" for herself.

She doesn't care where those workshops are or who they produce them for, as long as you ensure that there is no problem with your goods every time you deliver them, then it's OK.

Needless to say, these OEM workshops especially like to cooperate with Gu Qingling, because she not only has a lot of creativity and ideas, but most of them are long-term cooperation.As long as she hugs the Yao family's thigh, she won't have to worry about it for three or two years.

People with a little craft work are also willing to work in these workshops.

Everyone only saw what factories the Yao family had built and what stores they had opened. What they didn't see was that behind the factories and stores there were a large number of ordinary people who got rich along with them.

It can be said that Gu Qingling supported more than half of Jinling with her own efforts.

Who in Jinling at the scene didn't know that Mrs. Yao was Jinling's "God of Wealth"?No matter who it is, as long as they can hug her thigh and become her business partner, they are waiting to get rich.

No wonder Master Lei bumped into Gu Qingling at the theater that day, he didn't even want Fusheng, and wanted to "cooperate" with Gu Qingling.
