Wei Zheng immediately left the palace.

Heading towards Shengtang Group.

As soon as he left, he saw the Shengtang Group being busy.

When he passed by the door, he heard Li Min talking inside.

"One stone of mineral salt is worth one hundred cents. Including travel expenses, labor costs, purification losses, etc., it is also counted as one hundred cents. Then I will sell it for one tael and one stone!"

Li Min said this.

But it was rejected by Ji Ruxue.

"Mr. Zili, the salt in this world is five ounces and one stone! Will we lose money if we sell one ounce?"

"Five times the profit, how can it be possible to lose money?"

From another perspective, Li Min does not earn much.

You can know how ruthlessly the aristocratic family earns.

"But, Mr. Zili, this will not be good for us."

"How could it be? I will target the five major aristocratic families. If I want to hit them, I will hit them with a little more pain. Our quality is higher and the price is lower. The people are not stupid. They know how to make trade-offs."

Ji Ruxue was puzzled by Li Min's brain circuit.

How did she know that Li Min did all this for Datang.

For the future of Datang.

But if it wasn't for Li Shimin, who was he?

"More!"

Li Min changed the subject.

"Furthermore, salt is for people's livelihood. If you make too much money, it will only increase the burden on the people. You will do too much for the common people. What is the difference between it and the five major aristocratic families?"

Wei Zheng couldn't help but nodded.

This is the pattern.

Only those with a big picture are enlightened.

"In that case, I have no objection."

When Ji Ruxue heard this, she stopped talking.

After all, she was born as a poor peasant, and she has special feelings for farmers.

In this case, Li Min said again:

"That's good. Our salt shop will open tomorrow. We can sell out all the 500,000 dan. We may be able to sell more than 100,000 dan in one day. This will be enough to earn 100,000 taels in one day, and we will get back the capital and profits together."

Wei Zheng outside was shocked.

In just one day, fifty thousand will become one hundred thousand. If all are sold in time, it will become five hundred thousand taels.

Isn't this too scary?

In surprise, his foot accidentally touched the tiles on the side and made a sound.

"Who's out there?"

Li Min shouted.

Xue Rengui rushed out immediately.

Holding Tang Dao, he headed towards Wei Zheng.

Until I saw Wei Zheng standing there.

"It's you!"

Then Li Min walked out.

"It turns out it's Duke Zheng. You're here and you're not going in?"

"Passing by!"

Wei Zheng was panicked.

"Did you hear everything?"

Li Min asked directly.

Wei Zheng nodded.

"You can talk to him about this! It's okay. You just went to see him, right?"

Li Min seemed to have expected that Wei Zheng went to Li Shimin.

He must have come back because of Li Shimin's request.

Wei Zheng's expression was no longer calm.

"How do you know?"

"The things he does are so unbelievable, just take a guess and you'll understand."

"this……"

Wei Zheng was speechless.

"Okay, now that you're all here, come in. It's not anything particularly important anyway."

Li Min let Wei Zheng into the house.

"Is this okay? I think I'd better wait outside."

Wei Zheng said so.

It seemed that he had overheard it.

Li Min smiled.

"Nothing, I heard it. You can even tell him everything about me today. I also hope he knows that I am living a better life than him!"

Wei Zheng was about to panic after hearing this.

Ji Ruxue was puzzled.

Who is he in Li Min's mouth?

But he must be the person closest to Li Min.

"Mr. Zili, who is he?"

Li Min smiled and said: "He is an insignificant person!"

I'm afraid he is the only one in the world who dares to say that Li Shimin is an insignificant person.

The more Wei Zheng listened, the more panicked he became.

If he really asked him to talk to Li Shimin, he probably wouldn't talk about it.

"Is this so? I saw Mr. Zili often talking about him, thinking he was a relative of yours."

Li Min just smiled.

Wei Zheng didn't dare to answer the question.

Li Min saw Wei Zheng's panic.

Then he said: "Zheng Guogong, we will still need you for this salt in the future. The aristocratic family will be completely defeated in a few days. In the future, you may be needed to take charge of this salt matter."

Li Min could already foresee some things.

Some things should be settled as soon as they are good.

He would not go all out to do things like salt. If he did well, the court would have objections.

If it doesn't work well, the court will have more opinions.

By then, he may become the second Wang family.

Then it's interesting.

He didn't want Li Shimin to think about him all the time.

How could Wei Zheng know what he was thinking, so Wei Zheng listened in confusion.

What's in the future?

"This...Mr. Zili, can you explain it clearly?"

"For the benefit of the people, you don't need to understand, you will know when the time comes."

Li Min looked like a master.

Wei Zheng knew he couldn't find out why.

It can only be yes.

Then he asked: "I wonder when the 500,000 stone mineral salts can be purified?"

"This... may take five days. Now the entire group is involved, and the assembly line production is very fast. Look at the fireworks at the back. I also ordered everyone to work together to complete it within five days."

In the entire Chang'an City, apart from the five major aristocratic families, I am afraid that only the Shengtang Group has the confidence to do these things.

"It's really fast."

Wei Zheng praised.

Then he kept looking around and talking to him.

After all, he might not be able to say anything about asking for salt.

It would be okay if it was just a little bit, but ten pounds is a lot.

But what if it’s a purchase?

So, he opened his mouth and said, "Just now I heard Mr. Zili say that one pound of rock salt costs one tael of silver. How about this? How about I order ten kilograms?"

"O Duke Zheng!"

Li Min said.

"exist!"

"If you want it, just say it. Talking about money is too emotionally damaging!"

Li Min's words made Wei Zheng a little embarrassed.

If he wanted it, he would still owe Li Min a favor, but this was what Li Shimin wanted. Why should he owe Li Min a favor because of Li Shimin?

"But this..."

"Zheng Guogong goes back first. I will send someone to send a stone to you later!"

One shot is one stone, how about more than one hundred kilograms? I'm afraid I won't be able to finish it all in a year.

"But……"

"Isn't it enough? Then ten more stones!"

"No, no, no, that's enough. What do you mean?"

"Zheng Guogong, I hope you won't refuse when necessary in the future!"

Wei Zheng felt like he had been cheated.

Now he was in a dilemma.

He wants to give money, but others don’t want it.

If he doesn't take it, Li Shimin will be angry.

Li Shimin made a mistake by letting him come.

He owed favors for no reason. If Li Min really asked for something in the future, how could he refuse?

At the same time, I have to admire Li Min's cleverness.

Ji Ruxue just looked on with a smile.

It turned out that Li Min was still deeply obsessed with this idea.

I couldn't help but admire Guita even more!

Wei Zheng knew that he couldn't stay here for long. If he stayed any longer, something might happen.

So he excused himself and left.

As for that night, a very terrible thing was spread throughout Chang'an City.
