At present, things like salt are strictly controlled by the government no matter which country they are in. With the exception of Jiang State, Ning and Chu both prohibit the private sale of salt. They are all government-run. The only channel for people to purchase salt is
Daning Salt Company sounds like a commercial guild, but it is actually one of the government's yamen. It used to be affiliated with the Salt Envoy Department, but it was merged into the Salt Making Department at this year's imperial meeting.
The old salt sold in Daning Salt Store is still the old salt from the past. Although the old salt is not as fine as the salt he extracted through a series of processes such as evaporation and purification, it is definitely much thinner than the basket of sea salt crystals in front of him. However, the Salt Making Department
The seaside salt-drying base has just been built not long ago, and coarse salt will be mixed with many impurities, let alone the current level of drying. It will definitely not be edible without secondary processing. He also clearly wrote this in
In the memorial submitted to the imperial court.
Therefore, it is impossible for sea salt to circulate in the market.
But that would not explain why so many people suffer from diarrhea, abdominal pain and other conditions!
Tang Ji frowned, stared at Shopkeeper Du and asked, "Are you sure you bought this from the salt store?"
Hearing this, Shopkeeper Du was in a dilemma. If he admitted it, it would mean that there was something wrong with the salt purchased by the court. But if he said no, then he was selling salt privately. This is a capital crime. He couldn't help but hesitate: "Yes or no?"
!”
"Answer truthfully!" Tang Ji glanced at him angrily.
Immediately, Shopkeeper Du immediately replied: "Sir, this basket of salt was indeed bought from the salt store, and the documents opened that day are still there!"
After saying that, he quickly rummaged in the cabinet and quickly took out a certification document with an official seal.

Tang Ji nodded after checking. The intelligence given by the court was that a group of pirates were targeting the Salt Making Department. Now it seems that someone may have put their claws in, but the top priority is to take back the sea salt that has been circulated.
To prevent anyone from being harmed again.
After all, even people living by the sea have such a big reaction after eating this salt. If it spreads to other places, who knows what will happen!
He handed the document back to Shopkeeper Du, and then said: "I will take the salt away first and wait for the follow-up processing!"
"Yes!" Shopkeeper Du's heart was bleeding. There was a group of people outside waiting for him to pay compensation. Now the salt he spent so much money to buy had to be handed over again. This was a double blow, but he
He can only knock out his teeth and swallow it in his stomach. On the one hand, he has the reputation of the shop, and on the other hand, he is a court official. He can't afford to offend anyone!
Soon, Ye Zheng hugged the bamboo basket and followed Tang Ji out of the tavern.
Seeing that the people were still waiting outside, Tang Ji was unambiguous and said with his hands raised: "Everyone, I have found out the ingredients that made you feel unwell, but we need to investigate further. Let's just wait and give them what they deserve."
Even a small amount of compensation will not be less!”
After saying that, he took Jiu'er and Ye Zheng and left directly through the crowd.
The people were stunned on the spot, not knowing what to do for a moment. Even if this gave an explanation? Isn't it too vague?
But considering Tang Ji's identity, everyone did not dare to say anything and left one after another. Only a few people stayed where they wanted shopkeeper Du to give an explanation.
On the street, Jiu'er blinked his smart eyes and asked Tang Ji: "Uncle, who is going to pay the compensation? You?"
"It's a good idea. My money didn't come from the strong wind. I got sick from eating in taverns and restaurants. The salt came from the salt shop. They have two families with one person and one half. What does it have to do with me!"
"Tang Ji hummed and replied. As we all know, the sale of salt and iron is one of the important financial sources for the government, and the salt bank is not short of that money!
But now he wants to find out what causes sea salt to leak out!
Tang Ji concentrated on thinking for a moment, and then ordered to Ye Zheng: "Ye Zheng, send someone to Yinshui Bay to call Chen Zehan over, and then go to the government to find Wang Tongren and ask him to lead someone to seal the salt store for me first, and then
Let Yaosha find out why the sea salt is circulating!"
"Yes, I obey!" Ye Zheng immediately replied.
Night, Wangfu.
"Crazy, crazy!" Wang Tongren kept wandering in the lobby, remembering that Tang Ji asked him to lead people to seal down the salt store in the afternoon, the expression on his face was full of despair and worry, and he raised his hand and pounded the table: "It's really crazy.
, that man named Qin actually resold the salt to a salt store, and that man named Chen, is he a pig? How dare he accept private salt!"
What frightened him even more was that eating the newly made salt would actually lead to convulsions. If this salt was allowed to circulate and something happened to the people, then he would become a sinner for the ages!
A woman with a yellow complexion sat on the seat on the side and said anxiously: "Master, what should I do next?"
"I don't know what to do now!" Wang Tongren sighed and sat on the chair. He thought he could delay it for a few more days, but he didn't expect Tang Ji's sense of smell to be so sensitive.
If he got into Haiyan, it would be a matter of time before he was found!

Seeing this, Zeng Qingjiao clasped her hands together, put them on her chest and prayed twice, and then said: "Master, forget it if we can't survive. Nothing will happen to Xuan'er. You have to protect him!"
After yesterday's incident, Wang Tongren really wanted his son to repent and reflect in prison, but once he was caught and convicted of the Nine Clan, the roots of his Wang family could not be broken. He had a plan in mind and could not help clenching his fists: "I
knew!"
On the other side, Tang Ji, who had just put Jiang Ran to sleep, walked out of the room and saw Li Qingmei. He raised his hand to his lips and signaled her to stop talking. Then he turned around, closed the door, and took her to the door.
In the corridor: "Aunt Mei, how are you?"
"The sea salt was collected privately by the manager of the salt bank. The origin is still being traced. Currently, only three batches of sea salt have been shipped from Yinshui Bay. Two of them were escorted by people appointed by Wang Tongren. The keys and ledgers of the salt warehouse are also missing.
In his hands!" Li Qingmei replied expressionlessly.
Tang Ji took a deep breath and raised his eyes to look at the moon: "If I had known better, I should have asked the court to make the disadvantages of using sea salt public, so that he would not be blinded, but if he was trying to save his life, then I don't blame him.
