    Seeing Tian Chong being so righteous, Zhang Tu finally felt relieved.

    If this thing is so easy to use, this method must not be used by the Wu State. Even if it is really necessary to give it to them, it should be a big benefit.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? If you seize this opportunity, don¡¯t you have any revenge or complaints?

    "Master Taifu, it's time for you to eat. The kitchen has already heated it for you three times"

    Although it is already dark, these prisoners are still working continuously, and Zhang Tu is following them, and they have not eaten until now.

    "Let them rest for a while and continue working after dinner. Everything must be built tonight!"

    Zhang Tu gave the order, and then walked to the side of the small shed and started eating. As soon as he picked up the bowl, he immediately remembered the way Tian Chong came over in a hurry just now.

    "By the way, what did you want to say when you came here just now?"

    Zhang Tu held the bowl in one hand and asked while eating.

    "It's okay. If this method is really feasible, it's just a joke!"

    Tian Chong is also a little hopeful now. If this method can really work, why should he care about what those Wu businessmen want to do?

    It¡¯s just table salt. I can produce it myself, so why should I buy it from you?

    "That's right, young man, calm down, the sky will not fall in this country. Don't forget, this is where your Majesty walked out!"

    Zhang Tu glanced at Tian Chong meaningfully. This kid is actually not bad, he is smart and knowledgeable, but he lacks some experience. If he can really have a few years of experience, he will be his successor.

    "Thank you, Master Taifu, for your teaching!"

    Tian Chong quickly clasped his fists and bowed.

    Zhang Tu smiled and said nothing, and motioned to the servant next to him. The servant understood and hurriedly brought another bowl of rice.

    Tian Chong was stunned. He had already had dinner before coming, but this was Zhang Tu's kindness, and of course he would not refuse it stupidly.

    After dinner, the two of them stood under the moonlight with torches and watched the death row prisoners working.

    By the third watch, everything was finally ready.

    This salt-making method, which originally only appeared in the Tang Dynasty, was advanced hundreds of years because of Liu Deng.

    This method has been tempered for more than two thousand years, and has been used in modern times. It is even still used in some places. The operation method is simple and the chance of success is high. As long as God is not unfavorable, there will naturally be no problems.

    Because of the existence of this salt lake, not a single blade of grass has grown. It has been dry and rainless all year round, and there has been no human habitation nearby. If it weren't for the salt production here, how could anyone come to such barren mountains and ridges.

    "Come here, open the gate and release the water!"

    After all the preparations were done, Zhang Tu took a deep breath and looked at each other with Tian Chong, then waved his hand and ordered the prisoners to open the floodgates.

    Looking at the water in the salt lake slowly pouring into the evaporation pond just dug, Zhang Tu's heart was filled with anticipation.

    If this method can be achieved, the fate of Daiguo will change from now on!

    For five full days, Zhang Tu and Tian Chong watched here day and night. They completely abandoned their official duties in the yamen and carefully followed the process described by Liu Deng step by step.

    "What are you talking about? That old guy Zhang Tu hasn't expressed his position until now? Is everything going as usual in Daiguo without any response?"

    Five days have passed, and Liu Xian has not yet waited for Liu Deng and Zhang Tu who came to apologize.

    This made him very depressed, how could this be possible?

    How could that old thing still be silent?

    ???????? Not a single grain of salt has flowed into Dai Country for five days, and the big salt merchants have completely run out of goods. Only the large coarse salt produced in Dai Country, which dogs are not willing to eat, is still on sale.

    However, the acting king Liu Deng and the Taifu Zhang Tu have not taken any countermeasures until now.

    This situation is weird from the inside out, it¡¯s so abnormal!

    Is there any conspiracy between the two of them?

    But it¡¯s not right!

    He has already said hello to several princes and kings. Starting from five days ago, no one will give a grain of salt to Dai Guo. Why are they not in a hurry now?

    "Your Highness, there are thirty thousand stones in stock in Daiguo's official warehouse every year. Could it be because of this"

     Although Wang Shengzhi is dead, his old housekeeper is still there. He is very familiar with everything in Jinyang City.

    "You are right, it is indeed possible. Do they think there will be others willing to save them?"

    Liu Xian said with some disdain.

    "Your Highness must be on guard! Although Liu Deng is a bastard, he is that person's grandson after all. If something happens, I'm afraid that person won't sit idly by and ignore it"

    Yang Sheng is indeed a conspirator, and he does see things from a different perspective, but at this time, his opinion is indeed very possible.

    "Even if the imperial court can partially support him, it will not help the poor. The imperial court also needs to purchase some of its own salt from the princely states every year. How much inventory can it have to support Liu Deng?"

    A cruel smile appeared at the corner of Liu Xian's mouth. Since that kid won't come, then just hold off!

    Anyway, if you have this thing in your hand, you don¡¯t have to worry about not being able to sell it, so let¡¯s make the panic in the market stronger.

    "When there is no more salt in Daiguo, let alone raising the price by 80%, even if we increase the price five to ten times, will they still be able to stop eating salt?"

    ¡°If an ordinary salt merchant did this, he would definitely be punished by the court as a hoarder, but if it were the King of Wu, who would dare to stroke the tiger¡¯s beard?

    "Your Majesty, the Tutor has not shown up for five days in a row. You can't delay this matter any longer. If there is still no salt for sale in the market tomorrow, I am afraid it will cause a large-scale panic among the people. Your Majesty, once it triggers the public  If there is chaos, the consequences will be disastrous!"

    "Your Majesty, the State of Wu has completely cut off our salt road. The remaining vassal states are all in a nest of snakes and rats with them, just waiting to take advantage of them. If Your Majesty still doesn't think of a way, I'm afraid half a month later,  There will no longer be a grain of foreign salt in our country!"

    Why is that old guy Zhang Tu doing?

    Liu Deng certainly knew that the method had been used by later generations for more than two thousand years, and there was nothing wrong with it. He also made some improvements deliberately, so there should be no problem.

    "Isn't there still half a month left? Come back in half a month. Go home and hug your wife when you have nothing to do. Don't come here to disturb me if you have nothing to do!"

    After Liu Deng finished speaking, he turned around and left, cursing.

    The remaining civil and military officials were completely dumbfounded. What is going on?

    "My King, if you insist on doing this, I will have no choice but to die as a remonstrance!"

    "Whatever, remember to spread some more sand on the ground, otherwise it will be bloody and the servants will have a hard time cleaning it up!"
