    On the construction site in front of us, thousands of soldiers who had just been transferred were busy working nervously. Their physical strength was much better than that of the civilian workers.

    Although I don¡¯t know why we have to keep digging here, and the supervisors are so strict about the depth, occasionally there are one or two raised stones, they need to be dug out and then filled again.

    Originally they were quite critical of this kind of thing. After all, they were soldiers, not coolies who did heavy work.

    Even their generals were very resistant. After all, these soldiers who had gone through so much painstaking training were used to fight.

    They were not asked to do the hard labor instead of the civilian husband, even though there was a big difference in official rank between him and Zhang Tu.

    "However, this guy still went to Zhang Tu to argue.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡£

    However, the Grand Tutor took his general into a tent, and he didn't know what shameful deal the two of them did inside. After coming out of there, his general took off his shirt and held a  I also started working with my hoe!

    ¡°At this moment, the soldiers who were still lucky were completely dumbfounded.

    Several soldiers, relying on their familiarity, tried to find out some information from their general, but the general refused to reveal any information no matter what.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

    "These big-headed soldiers can't understand how digging holes on the edge of the salt lake is connected with the lives of the people?"

    "However, the generals have already ended, how can they dare to be lazy?"

    In less than ten days, these soldiers dug out an evaporation pond covering an area of ??1,500 acres, one in a five-acre square garden. All the ponds were connected with moso bamboo, and finally they were installed on top of the moso bamboo.  valve.

    That is to say, during these ten days, these soldiers saw with their own eyes how the white salt was made.

    After watching the process, everyone fell silent!

    Can making salt be so simple?

    ¡°Now they understood what the general said, this is indeed the fate of thousands of people of this country.

    What¡¯s more important is that from now on, their military pay will never be in arrears again!

    Most of these soldiers are from farmers. Of course they understand how valuable salt is.

    Many of them grew up eating the large pieces of salt produced in the previous salt lakes. Not only was that kind of salt bitter and unbearable, but more importantly, if you ate it often, you would get all kinds of strange things.  sick.

    But there is nothing you can do, who makes their lives miserable!

    When Zhang Tu announced that the king had issued an order, from now on, as long as he is a citizen of Dai, he can buy a pound of fine green salt at a fair price every year based on his head.

    Of course, as a benefit to these soldiers, each of them can buy 30 kilograms of high-quality green salt at a low price every year.

    How much is the par price?

    Many soldiers didn¡¯t quite understand, so Zhang Tu personally settled the accounts for them.

    A five-acre pond requires a total of one hundred kilograms of good charcoal, one bolt of linen, salt workers' expenses, court taxes, and carriage fees for transportation along the way. In the end, each kilogram of salt costs eighteen  Money!

    After Zhang Tu settled the account, all the soldiers were excited!

    They have seen the so-called seven things to open the door, firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea. These are all high-quality green salt. At thirty kilograms of salt per year, even their military pay and rewards combined are not that much.  ah!

    Just for this reason, everyone worked with all their strength. The entire construction site was in full swing, and everyone worked hard. In order to speed up the progress of the project, the soldiers voluntarily divided into two shifts, working day and night.  Grab jobs.

    "How much salt do we have in the warehouse now?"

    ??Ten days have passed since Liu Xian purchased all the salt in Dai Kingdom, and Zhang Tu couldn't eat or sleep because of this.

    "Although we have been working hard these days to grab work, up to now there is less than 50,000 shi in the warehouse! But if we have five more days, we can double our output!"

    Tian Chong is not afraid at all now. With this giantA large salt production base is here, and there will never be a shortage of salt in this country from now on!

    ¡°My king is indeed worthy of being of the Tian family¡¯s blood, and he can actually come up with such a wonderful method. From now on, it¡¯s time for the grandsons of Wu State to have a try!

    "According to your Majesty's plan, after 20 days, we will resume work with all our strength. However, there are still ten days left, and I don't know if your Majesty's side can sustain it!"

    Of course Zhang Tu knew that Liu Deng would be under a lot of pressure. Of course, there was no way to tell the officials in detail about such confidential matters.

    However, the more this happens, the greater the pressure Liu Deng will receive from officials.

    Zhang Tu has been in charge of the government of Dai for so many years. Surely he knows the virtues of the civil servants of Dai?

    Those pedantic guys, if they saw Liu Deng's inaction, let alone remonstrating with death, I'm afraid they would follow his neck and pull Liu Deng out of bed.

    "It can't be done well. Now at this time, some people are starting to prepare to go to the tomb of the late king to cry at the grave."

    "In twenty days, we will be able to collect 300,000 shi no matter what! By then, I really want to see what Liu Xian and the others' expressions look like!"

    All the coarse salt in Dai Kingdom has been emptied by them!

    And each one is priced high. Thinking about this, Tian Chong feels happy.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????mbOUT Out??

    "You guys, I don't usually notice that you are so narrow-minded!"

    Zhang Tu was also smiling, even though he hadn¡¯t been home for several days and was really tired from living on the construction site day and night.

    However, Zhang Tu felt happy when he thought about the wealth that was about to roll in.

    Since he started to give this to the Tutor, he has been calculating carefully every day, wishing that a copper coin could be broken into five petals.

    But even so, the income of the imperial court of this generation was still unable to make ends meet, and there was a deficit every year.

    The majestic king, not to mention the jewelry and jades, even the strange stone ornaments in the other courtyard were sold to Wu merchants at a price one by one.

    Does this bring glory to his face as a master?  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
