Chapter 14 [Get Rich]

The memorial can be written tomorrow, but the preparations for the Xueyan Workshop began immediately.

After discovering that Xueyan's money future was bright, Emperor Longxing was very concerned.

After Lin Zhibai returned to his room to sleep, Zhang Hai and the few eunuchs who had helped make snow salt were arrested.

We began to demonstrate the process of coarse salt purification to the master craftsmen who were summoned by Emperor Longxing over and over again.

Although everyone still didn't know the principle of coarse salt purification, they followed the previous experimental process directed by Lin Zhibai and successfully purified the coarse salt into snow-white and delicate refined salt.

After tasting it, I found that the taste was not much different from the ones that Lin Zhibai had refined before.

This result made everyone excited because Emperor Longxing promised that if snow salt was sold well, everyone would be rewarded.

When everyone was replicating the coarse salt purification experiment, Zhang Dong was ordered by Emperor Longxing to choose a barren mountain in the western suburbs of the capital to become the site of the snow salt workshop.

He also sent Hongwei and the imperial guards to complete the defense of the snow salt workshop, turning it into a highly confidential unit, and all those who trespassed were killed without mercy.

At dawn, many master craftsmen had already brought their apprentices to the snow salt workshop and officially started the mass production of snow salt.

Lin Zhibai had expected all this.

The next day, as usual, I heard the chicken dancing.

After completing the morning class for internal skills practice, I had breakfast again, and then I started to slowly write the entire process of coarse salt purification experiment, and wrote the principles of each step clearly.

After completing all this, Lin Zhibai went to the imperial study and presented the memorial recording of coarse salt purification to Emperor Longxing.

Although this memorial will not be made public, it can also be regarded as a proof of Lin Zhibai's achievements in making snow salt.

After a little look, Emperor Long Xing put the memorial aside.

Lin Zhibai, who was about to leave the imperial study room and go to the East Palace to attend class, smiled and said, "Emperor, from this day on, before you go to the East Palace to study in the morning, you can come to the imperial study room to watch the emperor's father review memorials."

Everyone likes that their children can be smarter and more filial, and this is even more true when choosing an heir.

Last night, Lin Zhibai offered the method of making snow salt. His words made Emperor Long Xing feel that Lin Zhibai was both intelligent and filial, so he rewarded Lin Zhibai with the military power of the three thousand imperial guards on the spot.

This shows that he was determined to pass the throne to Lin Zhibai.

Now, Lin Zhibai is asked to come to the imperial study to observe politics, but this is just a continuation of this decision last night.

Mr. Donggong can teach Lin Zhibai how to understand the world and learn the principles of dealing with people, while he can teach Lin Zhibai how to be a qualified emperor by his words.

Even if Lin Zhibai can't learn much at the moment, he will eventually gain something with his familiarity.

Lin Zhibai was naturally happy about this.

Not to mention how much you can learn from Emperor Long Xing, it is already worth having fun just by being in the center of the dynasty and being able to understand the general trend of the world at any time.

Even though I know that my father is unreliable, if the news is not convenient, I might not know what happened if I sleep at home and were killed by soldiers.

With this idea in mind, Lin Zhibai bowed and thanked: "Thank you, my father, I will definitely be humble and studious."

After that, Emperor Long Xing found a stool for Lin Zhibai to sit down, and then began to review the memorials.

The memorials that were able to visit Emperor Longxing have been sieved by the cabinet and the literati supervisor. Those that need to be reviewed by Emperor Longxing themselves are all major matters that concern the country, so the number is not too large.

While reviewing, Emperor Long Xing would roughly explain to Lin Zhibai what he reported in the memorial, how he would deal with it, and the purpose of this handling.

Lin Zhibai listened humbly.

In any case, Emperor Longxing has been an emperor for many years and is in power, so he is not a puppet that is undermined.

Compared to my new prince, there are still many things worth learning.

With this humble mood, time passed day by day in the rules of Lin Zhibai's imperial study in the morning, studying in the East Palace, and practicing martial arts in the afternoon.

And snow salt has also begun to produce continuously during this period of time.

After stockpiling a certain amount of inventory, snow salt began to be sold in the capital area by the imperial merchants.

As soon as this snow salt was launched, it was indeed snatched as expected.

This kind of snow salt, which is excellent in taste, is popular among all wealthy families.

Many clans and aristocratic families saw the interests of Xueyan, and went to buy them, and then began to spread to the entire land of China with the capital as the center.

Many wealthy families in Dahua, grassland aristocrats, small royal families in the southwestern border, and landlords from overseas islands have become customers of this snow salt. Many people are afraid that this snow salt will not be enough, so they stockpiled a large amount at one time.

Although snow salt is expensive, half a tael of silver per kilogram, it did not extinguish everyone's enthusiasm for purchasing.

This has led to the sales of snow salt, which is much larger than expected at the beginning, and has begun to show a trend of supply and demand.

In order to meet market demand, Xueyan Workshop began to expand and ship shipments crazily.

Under this circumstance, the demand for labor in the snow salt workshop is also constantly expanding.

Those refugees who flooded into the Gyeonggi area due to natural disasters and man-made disasters also got a job opportunity at this time. They were all stored by the snow salt workshop and all joined the salt making industry.

The snow salt workshop has obtained a lot of cheap labor, and only needs to manage the meals, but does not have to eat too well.

Many refugees were spared from the desperate situation of starving to death.

For the government, there is also a huge uncertainty factor. After all, whether it is to provide pensions with refugees or send troops to suppress them, it all costs money.

This wave can be said to be a win-win situation.

As snow salt was sold, huge amounts of money began to pour into the palace.

When the snow salt income of the first month came back, Emperor Long Xing looked at the huge amount of silver ingots that could be piled up in the Neiku River, and felt a shocking feeling.

One thousand two million taels!

A full 12 million taels of silver were piled up like mountains, and under the light of the night pearl, the inner warehouse was filled with silver light.

Even though Emperor Longxing was the emperor, he had never seen so much money at once.

But this is only one month’s income. On average, there is an income of 400,000 taels of silver every day. Even if a large army is sent to rob people everywhere, the money will not be so fast!

With such a large sum of money, you can train the new army.

At this moment, Emperor Long Xing deeply realized that the cake painted by his prince was called Fangma Grassland, which expanded territory and achieved the emperor for the ages was not so far away!
Chapter completed!
