I'm about to become an immortal, do you want me to be a prince?

Chapter 160 Old Driver, Steady Yuppie!

After solving Soga Ezo, the situation temporarily stabilized.

With the support of Li Mu, the Oban clan is gradually replacing the Suga clan to control the Yamato Dynasty.

As for the so-called emperor, no one cared about his opinion.

This thing is a mascot.

If he dares to be unhappy, Dabanniaoren dares to change the emperor.

Looking at the countries in the East China Sea, basically except for Baekje, the rulers of other countries all have some kind of mascot meaning.

Therefore, this is also the reason why Li Shimin did not pretend to be coercive in other countries, but went to the Baekje people to pretend to be coercive.

Because the Baekje people only need to restrain their king, and the goal is clear.

In other countries, the ministers are strong and the masters are weak, and they don't know how to suppress them if they want to.

"Duke Jingyang, the earth kings and diehards of the Changmen Kingdom, are stubborn and unwilling to accept surrender. They all hide in the mountains and resist stubbornly. What can we do?"

"How? Do you even need to ask? Teach them to be human!"

"Oh, then I set fire to the mountain?"

"Burn a fart, there is a shortage of manpower now, who will work for us?"

"What should I do?"

"Just close the mountain!"

"Seal the mountain?"

"Yes, seal him up for a month, see how they live without food or water?"

"Oh!"

Haagen-Dazs scratched his big bald head, with a confused look on his face, he felt that Mr. Jingyang was making a fuss over a molehill.

Directly bring people in and kill them, it's just that they want to catch people alive, it's so troublesome now.

"Do you think I'm making a fuss out of a molehill?" Li Mu asked Haagen-Dazs.

Haagen-Dazs didn't want to lie, nodded and said, "Mr. Jingyang, please forgive me for speaking bluntly. This land is very poor and there is no output. Keeping these people will only waste food."

"Old Ha, do you think I look like someone who can trade at a loss?"

Haagen-Dazs said subconsciously, "No."

In Haagen-Dazs' impression, Mr. Jingyang is definitely a shrewd and unpredictable existence.

To put it bluntly, the human spirit is talking about him.

"If you know you won't, you'll have to."

"Then what is Duke Jingyang's plan?"

"Although the real estate here is insufficient, there are other things that can be harvested."

"for example?"

"Such as seafood."

"Seafood?"

"Yes, this place is near the sea and rich in seafood, which can be one of the new projects. In addition, I recently have a new project that needs manpower to explore."

"May I ask Mr. Jingyang, what kind of project is it?"

"whaling."

"whale?"

"It's Kun."

Datang is not called a whale at this time, but a kun.

As a veteran sea driver, Haagen-Dazs naturally knew of Kun's existence.

"The Kun is as big as nearly ten feet, and it may be difficult to catch it with human power."

"So, need some death squads."

"Is this possible?"

"Don't worry, I have my own method of catching kun. The meat from a giant kun is enough to feed a group of soldiers. Why not do such a good thing? Besides, besides meat, it can also produce oil. This is a valuable thing. With leather, it can be said that the whole body is a treasure."

After hearing this, Haagen-Dazs also became excited. If it is true what Mr. Jingyang said, then this kun-hunting business is definitely a good business to make money.

Li Mu took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and continued, "There are more important things besides the Kun hunting plan."

"Also ask Mr. Jingyang for advice."

"Salt."

"Salt?"

"Correct."

"Mr. Jingyang wants to make salt here?"

"Exactly."

Haagen-Dazs was shocked when he heard this.

Salt.

In this era, salt is the product of the lifeblood, basically in the hands of the government, and ordinary people are not qualified to get involved. Whoever dares to compete with the government for this kind of business is probably planning to put their heads on their belts.

But then I thought about it carefully, no, where is this?
Overseas!
The overseas land is not Datang, so I'm afraid of chickens.

In this land of the East China Sea, Duke Jingyang's strength is already strong enough to compare with other countries, so what if he gets involved?
It's just that this salt-making method is too labor-intensive, and I'm afraid that the benefits won't be enough to offset the cost.

"But Mr. Jingyang, boiling salt is too slow. I'm afraid there are not enough people on the island!"

"Ah, old ha, I have a new way to make salt, no need to boil salt, listen to me!"

"New way to make salt?"

"Ang, let me tell you, this new salt-making method has a very high output. When the new salt is distributed to Yamato and other places, it will shake its foundation in time."

According to Li Mu's plan, a large amount of high-quality and cheap private salt will be produced at that time, and then flow into the Yamato market.

If it is done well, it can directly control the economy of Yamato.

Even small neighboring countries can be controlled together.

Of course, this will definitely take some time.

When the time is right, Li Mu may slowly try to issue banknotes.

Once the plan is rolled out.

At that time, the entire Eastern Sea countries can be said to be under Li Mu's control.

Compared with this grand plan, the matter of digging gold mines seems a bit small.

Therefore, Li Mu has not been in a hurry to organize people to dig gold mines recently.

Anyway, the land has been circled, take your time, don't worry.

After all, mining is a big project and there is no rush.

As for the salt road, Li Mu was also inspired by the Tang court.

Today's Datang, since Li Shimin forcibly occupied Li Mu's Qinghai Salt Co., Ltd.

That's called a slip!
Li Shimin directly moved what Li Mu had just thought to the grassland.

Today's prairie brothers are completely played by Li Shimin in applause.

There are salt ponds on the grassland.

But can it compare to the high-quality Qinghai table salt?
Certainly not.

In addition, Li Mu set up a pasture plan.

Today's prairie brothers are like sheep locked in a sheepfold.

Be obedient.

Of course, Li Mu noticed Li Shimin's way of playing the Prairie Brothers.

This thing was originally facilitated by him secretly.

Therefore, playing again in the East China Sea now is a familiar experience.

At that time, there will be another wave of pan-East Asian economic prosperity circles, steady yuppies!
