A small farmhouse somewhere far away from Lieshan Hall.
"What are you saying, Miss? It's my duty to go through fire and water." Mei Sanniang looked at Tian Yan who was holding her hand in front of her, and said firmly while reaching out to help her.
From the moment he met Tian Yan, he had decided to follow the person in front of him for the rest of his life.
"The same goes for Dianqing." Dianqing said calmly.
"Yan, thank you both for your trust. In the future, Yan will use words and deeds to prove that your choice is correct." Tian Yan said extremely seriously. She was rarely so serious in front of her family.
Now, she finally has a group of people who really follow her.
"The peasant family has always been independent of the world. The disciples of the peasant family do not go to the court, but can stay in Daze Mountain. The peasant family can mobilize up to 100,000 disciples at any time. Sooner or later, this will become the confidant trouble of all the princes.
Checks and balances unite to create stability but not chaos.
I am determined that Dawn and Quicksand will unite in secret and communicate with each other." Tian Yan continued.
"Mr. Wei Zhuang is highly skilled in martial arts and has many talents in Liusha. He is indeed a rare main force." Dianqing said in approval. He very much agreed with Tian Yan's decision.
Dianqing has no bad feelings towards Guigu, nor is he afraid of it.
Mei Sanniang did not speak, while her mother continued to lean on the bed, thoughtful.
"Mother, Sanniang, Dianqing." Tian Yan raised the plate in his hand and said, then looked around and motioned for Mei Sanniang to share his thoughts with Dianqing: "No matter how strong the quicksand is, it is ultimately an external force. I think,
Strengthening yourself is the most important thing.
Senior Jianqing just said what I want to do, which is to sell salt, and I plan to use the funds to continue the next plan. Do you have any ideas?"
Among the farm families, the three people with the highest external influence are Situ Wanli, Zhu Jia, and Tian Guang.
In comparison, Tian's four halls have a more exclusive atmosphere.
Everyone was deep in thought and bowed their heads in silence.
Sixty-seven thousand stones of refined salt cannot be sold through ordinary channels.
"This refined salt is worth more than a thousand yuan per stone. Well... it should be sold to those powerful people. How about we cooperate with Hall Master Situ?" Mei Sanniang suggested to Tian Yan.
Only the rich and powerful can afford such "luxury accessories".
The mother who was sitting on the bed silently shook her head when she heard this.
She understands Tian Yan very well.
“Sanniang, do you still remember what I said about doing good and benefiting the world?
If it is sold to the rich and powerful at a high price, how can most people in the world enjoy this refined salt?
I am a disciple of a peasant family. In this world, after all, there are few powerful people and many common people.
This refined salt does not sell for a thousand yuan, but only costs about a hundred and fifty yuan per stone. It should be affordable for my peasant disciples and ordinary people." Tian Yan said firmly.
For one hundred and fifty yuan per stone, nearly 67,000 stones of refined salt were sold. After deducting labor costs, there would be about 700 kilograms of gold.
The price of one pound of gold is the annual income of twenty households of five.
This profit is enough to equal the annual income of 14,000 households of five.
"Miss Gao Yi." Hearing this, Dianqing was shocked and somewhat moved and said.
Without him, if this salt is sold at a high price, even if it is cooperated with Situ Wanli, the money earned will be much more than one hundred and fifty yuan per stone.
But she was willing to give up such huge benefits just to benefit the common people.
What a benevolent Lord this is!
"If the King of Wei in the past could be as benevolent and righteous as the eldest lady, master, he...sigh." Mei Sanniang also looked shocked, but also said with emotion as she recalled something.
"If you sell it like this, you should be able to make a profit of about 700 kilograms of gold." The mother sat up straight and did some mental calculations.
She was dressed in a pear-yellow dress, with a beautiful appearance and jade-like skin. Under the shadow of a few rays of sunlight coming through the window, she seemed to be covered with a layer of golden gauze, and she was so beautiful.
"Mother's fortune telling." Tian Yan praised respectfully.
"Based on the seven hundred kilograms of gold, I plan to take out two hundred of them and distribute them to all the disciples in Lieshan. This year, I will also let everyone have a good year.
I am going to entrust Sanniang with the two matters of selling salt and making money. I wonder what Sanniang wants?" Tian Yan continued, telling his plan.
"Here, Miss... Don't worry, Miss, leave it to me." Mei Sanniang was so moved that she choked with tears.
That’s two hundred pounds of gold!
If you have such a benevolent Lord, what more can you ask for?
As for sales channels?
Would there be no sales channels for refined salt that only costs 150 yuan per stone?
Coupled with the sixteen thousand disciples in Lieshan Hall, if she couldn't sell it, she wouldn't have to live anymore.
The ceremony was also shocked and speechless.
For a person who has suffered from mediocrity and tyranny, even the slightest bit of benevolence and righteousness is enough to make him grateful.
This is also the reason why he is loyal to the Zhu family in the original work. For the peasant family, having the Zhu family who is a disciple of the peasant family become the leader of the knights is indeed the best choice compared to Tian Hu and others.
Even though the Zhu family has no way to bring too tangible benefits to the farm disciples.
It's a pity that to become a hero, you have to fight with the sword in your hand, the conspiracy in your heart, and be ruthless, but not benevolent and righteous.
From the original King of Wei, to later Wei Yong, and then to Tian Meng, no one had ever convinced him so deeply.
He was once used by traitors when he was angry.
The anger of revenge for his mentor and courtiers overwhelmed his reason. In that battle, he killed an innocent woman.
It wasn't until Guigu Zongheng joined forces to uncover the truth with Lord Xinling that he suddenly realized it.
I did something as despicable as what the killer did.
Only people with a strong sense of morality feel guilty.
Ever since he blindfolded his eyes, he had perfected his skills and had no flaws in his body. But for a moment, Tian Yan's benevolence made him regret it and he closed his eyes.
He once saw the wrong person, but now, when he meets the right person, he can no longer see it.
Nothing can be seen.
"Senior Dianqing, I also have a favor to ask you." Tian Yan looked at Dianqing aside and said.
"Miss, please speak." Dianqing said firmly.
There was never a moment when he was so determined that what he was about to do was right.
"Senior Dianqing was once an officer of Wei Wuzu. Do you know how to train soldiers?" Tian Yan asked Dianqing.
"Yes." Jianqing replied.
"I urgently need a force of my own, so that I can better protect Daze Mountain.
Wei Wuzu has passed away, but Senior Dianqing's unique skills should not be buried like this. I would like to ask Senior Dianqing to select 800 elites from the 16,000 disciples of Nongji Lieshan Hall.
After I returned, I personally inspected it, and then combined it with the twenty-four formations of the peasant family to form an army using the old Wei warrior training methods.
I will solve the problems of armor and crossbows.
Military pay is calculated as three thousand a year for ordinary soldiers. If the officers are promoted, I am going to name them the "Captain of the Elite Army". I wonder what you think, senior Dianqing?" Tian Yan said to Dianqing.
"I will live up to the trust of the eldest lady." Dianqing said excitedly.
The name "Captain of the Ruijun" is well chosen!
This is his strength!
If trained, such an 800-man unit that is well-equipped, well-trained, and combined with the Dize Twenty-Four Formations that have been honed for a long time will be extremely powerful!
