"A thousand catties of refined salt?"
"Is it still the same as last time?"
"Brat, you actually still have a thousand pounds? Where did you get it?"
"The salt last time was too good! I've only tasted it a few times, and I still can't bear to eat it!”
"Little brat, after eating that salt for a few meals, I only feel that my entire body is full of strength!”
Lao Wang was exaggerating a little here, but the salt was indeed good. At the very least, it was something that did not exist in this era.
Old Wang's words made the three people beside him confused.
Salt? What salt?
However, Old Wang did not explain to them. Instead, he continued to struggle.
"However, there are still 500 catties of seeds each. 1500 catties of seeds would be tens of thousands of catties of grain.”
"Little brat, when will you be able to provide the army with good grain when you grow it on a large scale?”
Ying Che replied," If it's early, it'll be next year. Also, we have to give priority to the border troops. The conditions of the border troops are a little worse than yours. They have to resist the Xiongnu and the Yue, so they need more food.”
Speaking up to this point, Meng Yi directly bowed again.
I thank you on behalf of my brother Meng Tian."
Ying Che glanced at him and said,"Of course, the premise is that the army here will listen to me and not some other young master."”
Ying Che looked at Wang Ben and continued,"As for when you guys will be given food, I'll give you a reward."
If there was no war, it would probably be next year.
Of course, there's one condition. Listen to me.”
Wang Ben was in a dilemma.
He knew that the border troops were indeed working harder than them, and he did not dare to compete with them for food.
However, he could not make the Middle Corps listen to the Thirteenth Young Master.
If they didn't listen, wouldn't they have no new food to eat?
In that case, grain seeds were more important than a thousand catties of salt!
His army had hundreds of thousands of soldiers, so it didn't take hundreds of people to plant these seeds. The seeds could still be used as seeds.
After two or three seasons, his army would have enough rations to eat.
However, Wang Ben was actually a meticulous person, so he didn't agree immediately. Instead, he said,
"Brat Che, do you think I can choose one after I finish my work? I think the refined salt and seeds are not bad."
In fact, he wanted to see if the seeds of the new crop were as magical as Ying Che had said.
He already knew how powerful the refined salt was, but he had yet to see the grain.
The Lord of the Eagle.
Ying Che smiled." Sure, you can send someone over these few days. I'll get Black Tortoise to contact you later."”
"Remember, other than the spies of the six countries, the Huns, and the Yue, there is also a group of mysterious men in black.
We must keep them three miles away and not let them see through our crops.”
"Don't worry, I'll do it since I've accepted the job!" Wang Ben patted his chest.”
"Brat, my brothers have been working very hard these past three months. We can't do without strength. Can you give us another bag of salt from last time?”
Wang Ben's face remained calm as he tried to ask for some of it. It was a profit if he could get it, but it was fine if he couldn't.
He, Old Wang, had some pride, but for his brothers, he didn't mind putting his pride aside. After all, it wasn't the first time.
Ying Che stared at him and snorted for a long time. When he saw that Old Wang was a little embarrassed, he waved his hand and said,
"Qing Yi, go get him another bag of salt. This time, you don't have to beat him up.”
"Hahahahaha! Then I, Old Wang, will thank the Thirteenth Young Master on behalf of my brothers!”
Wang Ben grinned happily.
He had profited! He had earned again today!
I knew that something good would happen to this kid, hahahaha!
500 catties of grain seeds and a bag of refined salt, who would dare to say that our army is not good?
Old Wang felt extremely happy.
Ying Che sneered in his heart. Did he really think that it was so easy to take my things?
Have you heard of boiling frogs in warm water?
By the time you react, you won't be able to escape from this Young Master's pot!
The conversation between Ying Che and Wang Ben confused the other three.
They could understand the grain seeds. They also roughly understood whether the army listened to Ying Che or whether they were worthy of new grain.
The new ruler had yet to be decided, so even if the Thirteenth Young Master was in charge of the country, he theoretically did not have any military power.
Otherwise, he would be the emperor and not the young master of the country.
However, the Thirteenth Young Master was not stupid. He knew that to control a country, he had to control the army.
Therefore, he used the new grain as a bait to make the army loyal to him. This was nothing.
Or rather, the two Prime Ministers and Meng Yi could not say anything.
However…
What was refined salt?
The three of them looked at each other in confusion.
In the end, Li Si asked,"
"Young Master, what did you just tell General Wang about refined salt?”
Before Ying Che could speak.
Wang Ben burst into laughter,
"Hahahaha! Old Li, you're too old-fashioned. That's not salt. That's high-quality refined salt. It's finer than the finest river sand!
Lick it a little, it's salty!
My experimental brothers had only eaten a few meals, but their bodies were filled with endless energy!
This refined salt is good stuff. I've never seen such good salt in my life!”
These words made the three of them even more confused.
They knew that there was a small bag of refined salt in the national treasury.
However, that was for Emperor Shi Huang to eat, and Great Qin could only collect so much in a year.
"Young Master, what do you mean by you still have a thousand catties of refined salt? Have you found the refined salt mine?"
Ying Che waved his hand and shook his head," There's no refined salt mine. It's just a simple method of purifying mineral salt.
I will tell you about this when I design the business map. The problem of food has not been solved yet. As for salt, we can talk about it later.”
Refining mineral salt?
The three of them immediately grasped the crux of the matter and widened their eyes.
Even Wang Ben was surprised to find the key point.
F * ck!
This kid actually found a way to make refined salt!
In that case, didn't he have an inexhaustible supply of salt?
This kid was a treasure trove!
F * ck, I wonder if that kid is willing to teach me the salt-making method like the ice-making method?
Then, he shook his head violently.
He didn't dare to think about it. This salt was not like ice. This salt was very precious!
That's right, in this era, refined salt was definitely a national strategic item!
It was indeed very precious.
Even if Ying Che didn't have enough manpower, he still wasn't willing to hand over the method of purifying mineral salt.
This was a great killing weapon that had to be used on the toughness of the blade.
At the very least, after the overall situation had stabilized and after ensuring that his subordinates were all obedient, he would not be able to do anything.
Then, he would get someone to do the mineral salt purification business.
Otherwise, if he wasn't careful and leaked this method, it would be a disaster!
Therefore, at this time, Ying Che didn't talk to them about the purification of mineral salt.
Instead, he said,"
"Let's leave the food issue aside for now. There's still one more thing.”
"Follow me to the paper factory to take a look. We'll discuss how to set up an official paper making department.”
Paper making?
Little question marks appeared in the heads of the four people at the same time.
The Thirteenth Young Master had a new item?
The surprise was too unexpected!
