Chapter 51 What a wonderful way to change the soup without changing the medicine!
The original salt-making technology of the Daxia Dynasty was very backward, and the salt produced was very rough.
If you want to make dishes taste good, you must add more salt, but if you add too much salt, the dishes will become bitter and difficult to swallow.
The salt made by Lin Xiao is different. It is pure and highly salty. You only need to add a little to achieve the taste-enhancing effect.
"I want people to be able to eat salt."
After a long while, Lin Xiao slowly said this sentence, with a determined look in his eyes.
Her idea was very simple, that is, to use the salt she produced to improve the people's diet so that they would no longer have to worry about eating salt.
This is her responsibility and her mission.
After hearing what Lin Xiao said, Yu Xilin was really troubled.
Having received a complete education in feudal society, he didn't understand why Lin Xiao wanted to make the common people eat salt.
Not to mention whether they can afford the salt, but don't these high-quality salts have to be supplied to the dignitaries first?
Lin Xiao's idea is too beyond common sense!
Seeing Yu Xilin's frown, Lin Xiao knew that he must not be able to figure this out, so he patiently explained:
"Salt is an important material that people rely on for survival. Only when people eat salt will their bodies be strong, so they will not be afraid of foreign invaders."
"Furthermore, water can carry a boat or capsize it. If the people can't even afford salt, can they live a peaceful life?"
Yu Xilin was stunned when he heard this, then he patted his head in realization and said:
"Yes, Brother Lin is right. Water can carry a boat and also capsize it. How could I have forgotten this!"
Lin Xiao smiled when he saw this. This Yu Xilin was very smart and could tell everything.
"Brother Lin, tell me, how should we price our salt?"
"According to different packaging, set different prices!"
Lin Xiao paused slightly and continued:
"What is sold to the common people is packaged in the most common bamboo tubes and priced at sixty copper coins per catty; what is sold to dignitaries is packaged in porcelain cans and priced at three hundred copper coins per catty; as for restaurants, they are priced at 300 copper coins per catty.
Just the same."
Yu Xilin thought for a moment and then praised Lin Xiao:
"Brother Lin, change the soup without changing the medicine. What a wonderful idea you have!"
Lin Xiao waved her hands modestly and said with a smile:
"I just copied the records in the book, and I didn't dare to do anything else."
The two boasted to each other for a few more words, and then were about to pay and leave, but unexpectedly they bumped into Wang Yao head-on.
When Wang Yao saw Yu Xilin and Lin Xiao chatting and laughing, the expression on her face immediately turned cold, and she said sarcastically:
"Humph, what a coincidence, I meet you here again!"
Lin Xiao frowned, she didn't like this girl very much.
Although she is very beautiful, her personality is really unflattering. Such girls are often extremely selfish.
Yu Xilin saw Wang Yao's unfriendly attitude and immediately said:
"Brother Lin and I are good friends. If we chat, what will it do to you?"
Wang Yao choked up after hearing this. This sentence was indeed correct. He did not interfere with the other party's right to make friends.
However, this sentence still sounded harsh to Wang Yao.
Her expression was extremely ugly, and she couldn't help but glared at Lin Xiao fiercely, and then complained to the man behind her:
"Cousin, these are the people. Yesterday they were all at Loves. They bullied me and threatened to beat me to death!"
Lin Xiao raised his eyebrows when he heard this. This Wang Yao is quite bad. He does not hesitate to add fuel and jealousy to achieve his goals. He confuses right and wrong. His character is indeed very bad!
Yu Xilin on the side heard Wang Yao say this, and a look of anger suddenly appeared on his face. This prime minister's daughter is really getting better and better!
The man Wang Yao called his cousin was dressed in blue, with a wide belt inlaid with rubies tied around his waist. Hanging from the belt was a jade pendant, on which was carved an eagle with spread wings, as if it were alive.
Generally, it gives people a strong sense of oppression.
He is none other than Zhao Qian, the compatriot of Zhao Xiao!
After he learned from the spies that the Japanese bandits had been killed by Bai Zhancheng, the God of War, without a single soldier, and that his brother Zhao Xiao was dead, he immediately rushed from Kyushu City back to the Prime Minister's Mansion in the capital to report the funeral.
Prime Minister Wang Tuo couldn't breathe and almost fainted.
Zhao Xiao's death is undoubtedly a huge loss to Wang Tuo.
He is not only Wang Tuo's nephew, but also his right-hand man and right-hand man!
The furious Wang Tuo locked himself in his study for three days, and finally made up an excuse. When he was about to read Bai Zhancheng's memorial, Bai Zhancheng's memorial was promptly presented to the emperor's desk.
Although Emperor Li Yuquan was cynical and hid in the harem all day long playing with his concubines, he was extremely keen on military and political affairs.
Even though Bai Zhancheng's memorial did not mention that Zhao Xiao colluded with the Japanese bandits, resulting in the annihilation of the people and soldiers in the seaside town, Li Yuquan still saw that there was something fishy about the whole thing.
So, he immediately sent his brother, the Second Prince Li Yuqian, to the seaside town to investigate.
As for Zhao Xiao's death, we can only wait for the return of the second prince Li Yujuan before making a final conclusion.
For this reason, Wang Tuo was very angry. At home, he often mocked Zhao Qian for being a loser and not as good as his brother Zhao Xiao.
He just reduced Zhao Qian to the point of being worthless and reduced to dust.
Zhao Qian didn't refute on the surface, but in his heart he already hated Wang Tuo to the bone.
Today, he finally went shopping with his long-awaited cousin Wang Yao, and met someone who bullied Wang Yao. How could he let it go?
So, Zhao Qian gave an order and asked his servants to surround Lin Xiao and the others.
"What do you want to do?!"
Upon seeing this, Yu Xilin immediately stood in front of Lin Xiao and stared at Zhao Qian warily.
"Haha, what do you want to do?! Of course I want to deal with these bed bugs!"
Zhao Qian sneered and said threateningly.
When Yu Xilin heard what Zhao Qian said, he immediately shouted angrily:
"They are all my friends. Are you sure you want to be the enemy of the Yu clan?"
After Zhao Qian heard this, his eyes were full of ridicule and he sneered:
"I don't think the head of the Yu family would offend our Prime Minister's Mansion for a prodigal son born from a concubine!"
When Yu Xilin heard this, her pretty face turned red with suppressed emotion, her beautiful eyes were filled with anger, and she wanted to rush over and beat Zhao Qian.
Lin Xiao saw Yu Xilin's appearance and knew that he was about to get angry, so he hurriedly pulled his arm.
"Brother Lin, he is so hateful!"
Yu Xilin said angrily.
Lin Xiao nodded and then said:
"He is deliberately irritating you. If you really fight him, wouldn't you fall into a trap?"
"I"
When Yu Xilin heard Lin Xiao's words, he felt scared. If he really fell into the trap and started fighting with Zhao Qian, he might not be able to eat anything!
The head of the Yu family has a good reputation and will never tolerate his own people being violent with others on the street.
This not only loses the face of the Yu family, but also loses the face of the noble family!
When the time comes, the head of the Yu family will definitely shift all the responsibility to him and his unpopular mother!
His mother was already pitiful enough, and she couldn't make it worse.
