Chapter 135 Salt Lead
"It's okay!" Zhu Rongdong had to answer very surely.
Qin Yiming smiled, so he took out the small medicine bottle and placed it on the table, and said, "There is mint oil in it."
"Minn oil? Can this thing make crickets ferocious?" Zhu Rongdong couldn't believe it. Why didn't he know that there was such a secret!
"Yes, if the prince believes it, I will give this little bottle to you!" Qin Yiming could see that Zhu Rongdong was almost drooling when he looked at the little bottle. Everyone could understand the way he took it for himself.
It was a coincidence that Qin Yiming had a little cold and his nose was blocked and he got a little mint himself. Unexpectedly, this mint oil has played a big role now. This mint oil is the main ingredient of Fengliu essence in later generations. It not only can cure colds and clear the nose, but he also watched it on a certain life channel. Fengliu essence can stimulate crickets and make it extremely ferocious.
"It's easy to say! Haha, with this secret, I will be invincible in the world, haha." Zhu Rongdong was extremely happy when he got the peppermint oil he wanted. For him, this was something that was the most precious thing.
Qin Yiming has been arrested by the prince of Chu for several days. Everyone thought Qin Yiming was dead. Governor Fang Kong and governor Sun Shirui went to ask for someone personally but failed to rescue Qin Yiming. Who else could rescue Qin Yiming?
The food in the city was also distributed, and the people could not buy food and would go hungry, so they started to make trouble. With Song Xiance's encouragement, the city was in full swing. Zuo Liangyu was not idle. He had mobilized two thousand elite troops into the city, ready to suppress the troublemakers at any time.
"I really didn't expect that Qin Yiming, who was originally a small De'an Qianjia, could make Wuchang Mansion like this!" Zuo Liangyu sat in Wuchang City, patrolled the city, looked at the angry people on the street, and sighed.
Chen Zhibang was next to Zuo Liangyu. Looking at the chaotic Wuchang City, he was filled with emotion and looked bleak, "Oh, no one expected that the trouble would be like this. If this continues, the civil rebellion is inevitable. When the emperor blames it, how should he explain it?! I'm afraid someone will lose his head! This is the old King of Chu, and Lord Fang has gone, so he won't give him any face. After all, Lord Fang is also a member of the Fang!"
"The old King of Chu is famous for protecting his calf, otherwise the prince would not have been so messed up. It seems that Qin Yiming is in danger. Haha, the evil people will be beaten by evil people, and this is not right at all. I think Qin Yiming is also an evil star. He killed more than 100 soldiers and made me drink ink, which became the laughing stock of the officialdom. Such a bad person finally met a worse person. Are you funny?!" Zuo Liangyu was in a complicated mood at this time, and he was also worried about the current crisis.
"Qin Juren is out! Qin Juren is out!"
Someone shouted on the street, and then many people ran to the direction of the Wang Chu Palace.
"Zhibang, I'm old, aren't my ears going to work? Why did I hear someone calling Qin Yiming out? How could this be possible?" Zuo Liangyu couldn't believe his ears.
"Sir General, I heard it too. Look at the streets, we should have heard it right." Chen Zhibang pointed out that on the streets below, a stream of people swept towards the Chu Palace.
"Let's go, take a look!"
Fang Kong was in the government office at this time, trembling. He had already closed the gate of the yamen in the morning to avoid any hungry people coming in to cause trouble. At this time, he also heard something outside shouting that Qin Juren had come out. He couldn't believe his ears. Could there be a second Qin Juren?
"Sir, it seems that some people call Brother Qin out." Sun Shirui felt a little incredible. Did he hear it wrong?
"Hurry, send someone to see, what's going on?"
The yamen runner who went out to Wangfeng came back to report, and Qin Yi was clearly released. Fang Kong's heart was finally settled and he was overjoyed.
"Okay, OK, Lord Sun, we are safe, we are safe, it's okay, haha, Bodhisattva bless you, Bodhisattva bless you! Lord Sun, where are you going?" During Fang Kong worshipping Buddha, Sun Shirui had already been unable to control his inner joy and rushed out.
"I'll go see my brother Qin, sir, I'll leave first today, sir, I'm so lucky..."
Sun Shirui came to the street, not far away, a road was empty in the middle of the crowd. Qin Yiming was really in the middle, with a bright smile on his face. Xu Zhen'er, Song Xiance, and Xiaohou were all following behind.
"Brother Qin, how did you come out?" Sun Shirui ran up and looked Qin Yiming up and down, without any scars.
"Haha, brother is joking, of course I came out!"
"Walking out? How is this possible?"
"Let's talk about the details when we go back!"
Everyone came to the Wang family. After Qin Yiming told everyone about how he came out, they almost made everyone's eyes fall off. This is outrageous!
"My husband is auspicious and heavenly appearance, just come out!" Xu Zhen'er looked happy.
Qin Yiming took Xu Zhen'er's hand and said guiltily: "Good Zhen'er, it's all bad for your husband, which makes Zhen'er worried!"
"Qin Wuhu, Mr. Song really underestimates you. We all made Wuchang Mansion go over and over again, but we couldn't rescue you. Unexpectedly, you just came out by yourself. Tsk tsk, this demon king of the world met the evil star from the sky, and it was mutually rebellious. You are the evil star, and you are the powerful ones. I admire you!" Song Xiance was choking tobacco in his mouth, looking convinced.
"God, are you praising me or scolding me?!" Qin Yiming said angrily.
"Hahahaha! Brother, I'll be in the house tonight, so I'll drink in the mansion. I won't be drunk tonight!"
Although Qin Yiming escaped this life-and-death disaster by luck, he was also very frightened. After three rounds of drinking, Qin Yiming became drunk. Song Xiance had already drunk. Even if this old boy was so drunk, he would not forget to smoke his dry tobacco and spit out the smoke rings one by one.
The little monkey was already talking nonsense. Now the only one who is sober is Xu Zhen'er, and the only ones who are better are Qin Yiming and Sun Shirui.
"Haha, my wife, thank you for your hard work, come and kiss me." Qin Yiming hugged Xu Zhen'er and kissed her suddenly without saying a word, making Xu Zhen'er very shy.
"Haha, I am really a person with a temperament. I envy you. When my brother and I Ning get married in the future, I must come and drink it for three days and three nights."
"Okay, sure!"
Xu Zhen'er looked at the two drunk cat brothers and said angrily: "I'm still drinking so much."
"Drink, you must drink, good lady, I'm not drunk, and my elder brother is not drunk either, right?"
"Yes! I'm right!"
"Brother, last time your future brother-in-law said what business he had done with the Fan family, do you know the details? The Fan family wants so much pig iron, but what did you say to do for?"
"I didn't say that, it's a big deal anyway, hundreds of thousands of taels. Alas, big merchants are big merchants, and we can't compare to them."
"Hundreds of thousands of taels? There are thick stacks of silver notes!"
Xu Zhen'er said at this time: "My husband, the Fan family doesn't know how to use silver notes!"
Although Qin Yiming was slightly drunk, his mind was still clear, hundreds of thousands of taels. If he didn’t use a silver note, would he have to use cash bank to settle the bill?
"What do you need for a silver bill? Hundreds of thousands of taels, dozens of cars of silver. It's not peaceful all the way through the way. Are the Fan family not afraid of being robbed?"
Xu Zhen'er smiled and said, "My husband, you don't understand this. The Fan family and the Kang family are no longer incompatible with each other. They definitely won't use the Kang family's silver bill. The premise for using the Kang family's silver bill is that the Fan family must first go to the Kang family to save so much money. The Fan family will definitely not, and the Wang family from other families will not accept it."
Qin Yiming thought about it and said that this is the truth. Nowadays, only the Kang family's silver bills can be circulated, and other small silver accounts cannot do it at all.
"Does it really cost money?" Qin Yiming began to make up his mind.
"Of course not, there is something more valuable than silver?"
"What is more valuable than silver?"
"Salt ingestion, or tea ingestion!" Xu Zhen'er said.
Qin Yiming shook his head and asked seriously: "Salt ingot? Kang's household salt ingot checkout? Is this still possible?"
Xu Zhen'er smiled and said, "Why can't it be? This salt tent is more valuable than anything else. The merchants transport food or pig iron and other substances to the court. The court does not need to give money, but directly issue salt tents or tea tents of equal amounts. These merchants then use salt tents or tea to the designated place of the government to buy salt tea, and then sell it out. The money they earn will increase dozens of times and the profit is very generous. Therefore, this salt tent is more valuable than silver. There are many merchants in the capital who buy salt tents, and those who get salt tents are willing to sell them!"
"Why is this?" Qin Yiming became less and less clear when he heard it.
Xu Zhen'er explained: "The reason is very simple. Merchants holding salt turfs must buy them at designated places and then sell them at designated places. It takes several months or even years to make money back. However, if someone is willing to buy the salt turfs in their hands at a price of 50% or higher, they are willing to sell them. This way, they make less money, but the money is faster and more stable."
"Buy salt indicia and then sell it?" Qin Yiming asked. This is a bit similar to the stock trading in later generations.
"Yes, like this, it will be several times the profit!" Xu Zhen'er explained.
Qin Yiming really didn't know the links. He only knew that the salt tea was the official government. Xu Zhen'er seemed to understand it very well. He must understand it in detail in the future. However, the most urgent task now is how to intercept the Fan family's pig iron.
When the news that Qin Yiming was released because of fighting crickets, Zuo Liangyu almost blew blood on the spot. The angry Zuo Liangyu could only throw a cup in the house to vent.
"It's ridiculous, so ridiculous, it's simply ridiculous. The governor went to plead for mercy, but he refused to let anyone go. Unexpectedly, Qin Yiming came out like this. A local official is not as good as a cricket. Do you think this is too ridiculous?" Zuo Liangyu was furious, his chest was undulating, and his face was red.
Chen Zhibang knew Zuo Liangyu's mood at this time, and he was also very angry. However, Qin Yiming was just a loach, very cunning, and always had such good luck.
"Sir General, please calm down and don't get angry."
"Damn it, hateful!" Zuo Liangyu found a teacup and threw it to the ground.
"Sir General, Cao Cao has recently arrived near our hometown. Should I send someone to pick up all my family?" Chen Zhibang changed the topic so that Zuo Liangyu would not offend the axe and would make himself angry.
