"General, how does it taste like!"

A young man licked the corner of his mouth hard, and this guy had long been greedy for the domineering fragrance of salted fish.

The young man's door guard gave out a long breath and said in a strange way: "This smell is so damn fragrant..."

Suddenly, as if he was remembering something, he suddenly reached into his arms and took out his money bag, threw it to a soldier and shouted hurriedly: "Come over and wrap all the salted fish for me. This thing is fragrant and salty, which is much more affordable than buying salt."

Unfortunately, he had not finished speaking and heard footsteps all around him. But when he saw the people watching him running towards the corner like charge, he shouted to ask the refugee to buy salted fish.

The business suddenly became popular.

A young man's door guard smiled and threw the salted fish to his soldiers.

He looked outside Chang'an City and was staring at the direction of Weishui. He suddenly said with a low tone and smiled: "Cheng Chumo, you dog, if you don't have three pig elbows, I'll kill you. Grandma's, this fish is so damn salty, but it's so damn fragrant..."

...

On this day, the city was filled with the fragrance of salted fish.

A total of a thousand refugees turned into a thousand peddlers walking around the streets. They carried small stoves and small pockets on their backs. They started from the city gate and then continued to extend to the center of the city. They did not occupy a prosperous place, but only looked for a corner of the street to fry a salted fish into the pot, which aroused the greed of thousands of people in Chang'an.

The domineering fragrance finally spread into the palace.

No one expected that on the top of the Tai Chi Hall, the highest Tai Chi Hall in the palace, the Emperor Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty did not attend the morning court today, but instead brought a group of ministers to look at Chang'an.

When the fragrance spreads throughout the city, Li Shimin suddenly sniffed and turned to everyone to smile and said, "No wonder that boy wants to make salted fish. Even I can't stand the taste. In the ordinary people's home, there is finally another delicious dish."

Fang Xuanling walked out of the crowd and laughed: "The most important thing is that the price is not expensive. A salted fish costs only ten cents. Rich people should adjust it, and poor people can use it as salt. So this is not a small industry, it is a big industry that benefits everyone."

Changsun Wuji also walked out and said with emotion: "Thousands of refugees outside the city are fishing, and more than ten thousand refugees are responsible for pickling, selling cheaply, and making money to buy grain. From then on, they will not be afraid of the bitterness of hunger meals, and they will gradually gain a foothold."

Speaking of this, he felt even more moved, and suddenly smiled bitterly: "The tide of refugees that has troubled the court for several months is probably no longer necessary to have headaches in the future. Hey, salted fish, what a salted fish..."

Li Shimin laughed loudly, and the powerful general raised his hands forward and emptied. The emperor seemed to want to bring the entire Chang'an City into his arms, and said boldly: "The refugees in all dynasties have suffered, but I, the Tang Dynasty, have never seen any panic. The whole world is full of food and drink, and the city is full of salted fish fragrance!"

This poem is very ordinary and can be said to be unspicable, but the ministers present nodded together, and said with relief: "This salted fish smells so good. It can solve the food, drink, defecation and sensation of tens of thousands of refugees."

All the ministers were all glad. Suddenly, they heard footsteps behind them. Everyone turned to look together, but they saw Empress Changsun climbing up the steps and said from afar: "Your Majesty, I asked the Office of the Internal Affairs to buy fifty baskets of salted fish, and each basket was pasted with royal brocades. Please send them to the ministers in the court..."

The royal family gave the ministers a salty fish?

These words stunned everyone.

Empress Changsun said again: "I did this, and I wanted everyone to taste what the fragrance of salted fish is. Only after I have eaten it can I be qualified to evaluate it. I saw that you are only interested in discussing here. Can anyone really taste salted fish? How can I have a real evaluation, right?"

Li Shimin laughed again and nodded repeatedly, "The Guanyin maid is doing well, these fifty baskets of salted fish should be shipped..."

Suddenly remembering something, he quickly changed his words and said, "It cannot be considered a reward, it should be considered a purchase. The Queen's Office of the Interior has always been tight, and you must pay for these fifty baskets of salted fish."

Fang Xuanling was the first to bow his order and said solemnly: "The old minister subscribes to a basket, thank the queen for purchasing it first."

The others also quickly expressed their opinions, and in a blink of an eye, fifty baskets of salted fish were sold out.

At this time, Empress Changsun walked to Li Shimin slowly and suddenly said with concern: "I am only worried about one thing now. I am afraid that the big fish in the river will not be enough to catch them. The two children are determined to accomplish great things, but don't suddenly find that there is no fish after a few days..."

Li Shimin was stunned and subconsciously went to see the ministers present.

Changsun Wuji quickly stood up and explained with a smile: "Your Majesty, don't worry, and the Empress do not need to worry. Chang'an is surrounded by rivers, which can be fished for several years without reducing. After a few years, the refugees have been transformed into normal farmers. The Ministry of Revenue is planning to impart land to refugees, and it will be put on the agenda in the near future."

The queen still frowned and said softly: "You can only protect fishing for a few years. Wouldn't there be no salted fish in a few years?"

Li Shimin laughed and said, "You are stupid, Guanyin maid? There are more than tens of millions of rivers in the Tang Dynasty? It cannot be caught around Chang'an, can't be caught in other places? This salted fish industry can be continued, and all descendants can be managed. If there is water, there will be fish. There is no such thing as killing chickens and retrieving eggs..."

The queen was stunned for a moment, then felt relieved.

...

On this day, Chang'an was talking about salted fish everywhere.

The reason is that the aroma of salted fish is too domineering. Thousands of refugees fry salted fish in the city, and even if they hide in the deep courtyard, they can smell the fragrance of fish.

Anything that is so powerful will inevitably arouse the awareness of those who are interested.

But there is a mansion on the side of Zhuque Street in Chang'an that stretches for hundreds of acres, with a green mansion door inlaid with copper nails, and a deep courtyard, revealing a natural nobility.

This is the Wang family in Taiyuan, Zhongming Ding Food House.

Today happened to be the day when various branches of the Wang family concentrated on the matter. What was discussed was how to reject the emperor's attempt to give land to the refugees. Originally, the criminals were not in a fight, but the key was that the emperor wanted the aristocratic family to take out part of the land.

Taking money is like killing parents. Aristocratic families are an unparalleled aggregate of interests. Even if the emperor wants to reach out, it is light to refuse. If he is angry, he dares to overturn the table.

Just as the elders of the Wang family were talking, they suddenly heard a burst of rapid footsteps coming from outside the door. The elders of the clan were slightly stunned, and then they felt angry.

The rules of the aristocratic family are very strong and unbreakable. You must know that this is the place where Wang family discusses things. Which damn reckless guy dares to come over?

After seeing the person, my anger suddenly faded away.

Because the person who came here was also an old clan, he just didn't participate in the discussions. This old clan was Wang Xun, who had always been responsible for the warehouse business of the Wang family in Taiyuan.

Since it was the clan elder who broke in, it would not be considered a violation of the rules. All clan elders all laughed and said, "Fourth brother, why are you free to Hui people today? I have received a couple of mountain posts a few days ago. Why not wait until the matter is discussed and I will sit in our yard..."

Unfortunately, Wang Xun ignored him completely. Instead, he stared at Wang Gui, the leader of the Wang family, and said hurriedly: "Brother, something big happened."

Everyone was stunned. Wang Gui, who was sitting in the head, said lightly: "The ancient sage of the sage, you have been listening since childhood. If you collapse in Mount Tai, you will not change your face. Look at what you are now, there is no trace of the calmness of the Wang clan elders. What is a big thing? My Wang family in Taiyuan has never been afraid of big things. Even if the dynasty changes, my Wang family has experienced many times. Sit down and talk, and slowly say..."

Unfortunately, Wang Xun did not sit down, but said again: "Brother, everyone, have you ever smelled a fragrance that is rich and attractive!"

Everyone was stunned again, and Wang Gui frowned slightly and said, "What the hell are you going to say?"

Wang Xun took a deep breath, tried hard to keep his body from trembling, and said, "This is the fragrance of fish, the fragrance of salted fish."

"Fish scent?"

"The fragrance of salted fish?"

The patriarch Wang Gui slowly raised his head and thought for a moment: "I remembered that it seemed that the junior of the Cheng family wanted to do this. It is said that he had taken a refugee as his teacher and clamored to use salted fish to raise refugees..."

Speaking of this, he looked at Wang Xun and smiled and said, "I heard that they bought the stone salt mountain from you. It seems that they wanted to use stone salt to pickle salted fish. Today, there is a fish fragrance. Could it be that the salted fish is made?"

Wang Xun took a deep breath again and said pale: "It's true, so something big happened!"

This made everyone curious. Someone smiled and guessed: "Maybe the one who died of eating, so the fourth brother, you are panicked. Hahaha, there is no need to worry about this. The Cheng family wants to buy the Shiyan Mountain. Even if pickling salted fish and eating it to death, it has nothing to do with Wang."

Wang Xun looked hard, and felt his throat was blocked like a lead sinker. The old guy tried hard to suppress his panic, but he couldn't help but tremble while speaking, and said with a hard forehead: "That salted fish didn't eat dead people, and that stone salt was not toxic..."

As soon as these words were said, everyone hadn't reacted at first. When they wanted to laugh twice, everyone's face suddenly changed color.
