Chapter 528 Future Prime Minister

The salt workers attacked the soldiers guarding the salt field, killing 150 officials, salt field foreman, accounting office, stove and other people in charge.

The Southern Tang Dynasty followed the national policy of salt and iron monopoly since the Han and Tang Dynasties, and the salt farm was controlled by the court. After the salt merchants received the salt, they could only go to designated areas to sell it.

Of course, there are also salt merchants directly responsible for production, but such salt farms are also controlled by the imperial court. In short, in the eyes of salt workers and stove owners, salt merchants are the imperial court, and the imperial court is the salt merchants, and they are all in one family!

Don’t be polite, Wang San was covered in blood and swung the hammer hard, which hit a Yan Ding’s chest. The armor was smashed, the sternum was concave, and an old blood was spurted out, with several dark pieces in it, and the internal organs were broken!

The salt workers are fighting forever. They usually work like cows and horses. Thanks to these men, they have developed a strong body. Now it is time for the master to taste their power!

After killing all the people in the salt field, the salt workers took a short rest and rushed to the second salt field immediately.

In an uprising, we have always been like this. If we don’t kill all the enemies, we will just wait to be killed by the enemy!

This is a life-and-death war, and there is no luck!

They rushed into the second salt field and directly entered the salt workers' shack. These salt workers, who were so poor that they had nothing, were waiting for this day.

Perhaps someone had thought in his dream that it would be too difficult to make the court rebellion, but no one took the lead and let them take the last step.

This is the end of the world. Finally, someone broke the window paper, and a gap appeared in the river bank, and behind it was a surging flood, which was coming.

The salt workers almost hesitated and carried the shoulder poles and followed them out.

One salt field, two salt field... spreads so fast that it is better than influenza.

But in the past ten days, all the salt fields along Taizhou and Rugao fell. After the salt workers seized the salt fields, they picked up the clean salt and piled them into small hills.

Ironically, although the salt workers pick brine, chop firewood, burn fire, and carry... the cleanest and best salt produced is all red marks from the court, and no one can touch it. They can only eat inferior salt mixed with grass sticks and sand!

Grandma's!

Now that I have taken the salt field, I can eat whatever I want!

Not only do you eat the best, but you also need to use it to brush your teeth. Don’t the rich people do this like this! Let me enjoy it too.

Someone grabbed the handful of salt and rubbed it on his front teeth, grinning, each of which was filled with emoticons.

Many salt workers are going crazy, but there are more sober people. They have nothing but salt in their hands. If the imperial army comes, what kind of resistance should they resist?

Although people cannot live without salt, they cannot just eat salt!

Therefore, many salt workers took salt and went to the countryside to exchange food, livestock, vegetables, and everything they could exchange for!

The salt workers were tortured by coins, and they didn't want anything, just stuff!

Have you seen it? One load of salt, one stone of grain, three loads of salt, one sheep, twenty loads of salt, one war horse... The most primitive barter appeared around Yangzhou, the most prosperous commercial city, and it spread rapidly, and was very popular among the people.

The salt workers are suffering from money, so why are the common people the same?

Being five big money, being ten big money, and being one hundred big money!

Go fucking!

Don't take any penny!

The common people completely abandoned money, and some even learned salt workers. They summoned young and strong officials to expel the Southern Tang Dynasty, and ran to echo the salt workers and join in the grand ceremony.

The people of the Southern Tang Dynasty had retreated to a few cities such as Rugao, Taizhou, and Yangzhou. The entire countryside was occupied by the salt workers and the people who were engaged in the investigation.

Even if there was no place to fall, many gentry stood up and announced that they would set up camp to protect themselves and no longer respect the will of the Southern Tang Dynasty.

How to describe the current situation? A basin of hot water was poured down, and all the snow melted. The only city left was the snowballs discarded by the children in the snow, and they supported them tenaciously, but they were also soaked that they were exposed, revealing the sludge and sand...

"Are you surprised? This is the end of the collapse of the monetary system." Ye Hua said lightly to Zhao Er, Li Yu, and the three commanders Lu Duoxun.

These three people were stunned and looked serious, especially Lu Duosun, whose fingers were deeply embedded in the palm of his hand. He kept exerting force to let the pain stimulate his brain.

Not long after, Lu Duosun's forehead was covered with cold sweat. He seemed to have fished it out of the water and suddenly sighed, "Marty, not long ago, I was thinking about taking two million taels of silver as a deposit, issuing a batch of silver coins, purchasing grain, and solving the situation of low grain and injuring farmers... I regret it!"

Lu Duosun smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Marty, if I do it, will I end up with such a result?"

Ye Hua shrugged, "It's hard to say that Dazhou has a strong foundation, probably not, but I hope that Xianggong Lu can do his financial management in the future and be as stable as possible! Of course, you can't be self-confidenced, and you still have to work hard to study."

Lu Duosun listened carefully, "There will be troublesome marquis in the future!"

Zhao Er smiled and said proudly: "Does I have another junior brother?"

"Shut up!"

Ye Hua said angrily: "The situation has reached this point now, it's time for us to come forward to save the world!"

ah!

Zhao Er and Lu Duoxun were cheered up and stared at Ye Hua together. Could it be that they were going to send troops?

When they saw the expression of affirmation in Ye Hua's eyes, they were all ecstatic. The Great Zhou Dynasty's unification of the world was about to start, and the Southern Tang was finally not far from destruction!

They all wanted to know how Ye Hua would start.

But Ye Hua did not rush to speak, but turned to Li Yu.

"What about you, what are your tricks?"

Li Yu was stunned and said foolishly: "I am humble, I am not knowledgeable and have no clever plans. I also ask the marquis to atone for my sins."

Ye Hua didn't want to let him go, so he asked: "If you don't have a good plan, you can do it. If you don't have a bad plan, you can listen to it. In short, you must not speak!"

Zhao Er was also energetic at this time, "Yes, Li Yu, didn't you say that you should seek revenge on Li Hongji? God-given opportunity, the best opportunity to take revenge, how can you not have any opinions? This is not possible!"

Li Yu was forced to question, and he pondered for a while, "Marty, if you insist on Bei Zhi, Bei Zhi feels that although the situation in front of you is beneficial to the Great Zhou, you should not act recklessly. You should be careful."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Er disagreed and said, "What's the point? The most urgent thing is to recruit Yimin, think that the army is flanking, then take straight to Yangzhou, take all the land in Jiangbei, and then attack Jinling, and destroy the Southern Tang in one battle!" Zhao Er raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "By the way, take your royal brother over and hand it over to the Emperor of the Great Zhou to deal with it! What do you think?"

Li Yu frowned and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Zhao is very proud, and all the officials are obedient."

After saying that, he lowered his head very deeply and said nothing.

At this time, Ye Hua stood up from his seat, walked straight to Li Yu, and patted him on the shoulder.

"Li Hongji left a mess, it is easy to destroy the currency system, but it is difficult to recover. It must be known that every change in the currency value means the lives of countless people. Take people to the salt field!"

Li Yu hesitated, "The Marquis means..."

"Go to learn about the situation of the salt workers, find out their ideas, and find ways to find ways to restore the currency value... Also, the reform of the salt administration, the life of the salt workers, and how to clear the equal land... You have participated in these things. I hope you can use it for a while and come up with a perfect strategy, and in the future... it will be used in Jiangnan!"

Li Yu was struck by lightning, and his body trembled briefly and violently. He closed his eyes and raised his head. After a while, he whispered: "I am obedient to the order."

After saying that, Li Yu turned around and left in a hurry. He didn't want people to see him crying, but he just wanted to cry!

It is true that Li Hongji has a grudge against him, but he is also the prince of Southern Tang, with royal blood flowing from the body!

The foundation of our ancestors is a great country!

Is this going to end? The elder brother killed his father and brother, yelling to compete for the Central Plains. Is this the end in the end? Ye Hua said that he would do it, and he has never taken action, and once he takes action, he will hit him with one blow! He is afraid that he will completely destroy the Southern Tang Dynasty just like before, just as he restores Youzhou, and his own country is really beyond help.

Li Yu staggered back to his residence. He became numb. He packed up two clothes casually, rolled up important official documents, and took his personal belongings. He hurriedly left, preparing to go to the salt field to investigate the situation as Ye Hua told him.

But unexpectedly, he ran into Zhao Er head-on.

Li Yu looked a little embarrassed and lowered his head and said, "I have met Lord Zhao, my subordinates, and I have errands..."

Zhao Er suddenly smiled, "Li Yu, do you know, how much I envy you!"

Li Yu was puzzled. He had nothing, and even the nominal country was gone. You, Zhao Kuangyi, have everything. Do you envy me? Have you taken the wrong medicine?

Zhao Er sighed: "I am sincere. Because I have everything, I can only be a shameful embroiderer of embroidery clothes. If you have nothing, there is infinite possibilities!"

Li Yu frowned, "Subordinate, I really don't understand what Lord Zhao means."

Zhao Er shook his head, "Okay, you will figure it out, but the most important thing at the moment is to do what my master told me."

"Brother, I will pay back the debts, and I will do it!"
