Huang Shouren still only said half of what he said, leaving him in suspense: "Mr. Liu, you are a smart man, and you cannot know too much about some things."
"Understood!" Liu Mo nodded.
I need to serve a certain prince and fight with the current prince and the eldest prince!
"Then I dare to ask, is Chen Zhiyuan from the eldest prince's faction or from the prince's faction?"
"You should ask Li Guangrun of 'Guangjuxuan' whether he belongs to the eldest prince's faction or the prince's faction." Huang Shouren answered him.
Good guy! Liu Mo understood instantly again!
Huang Shouren deliberately did not specify which faction he belonged to, but it didn't matter much. They were all hostile camps anyway, so it didn't matter who they were!
No wonder Zhou Zhushan, who had committed the death penalty, could be released. The power behind Guangjuxuan is so strong!
Second, the backers behind these damn Chen Zhiyuan and Li Guangrun were the princes. Huang Shouren was wary of them. He really didn't dare to touch them easily until he was completely sure.
"I understand, what do I need to do?"
There’s nothing to think about, I’ll join you guys.
No reason, just because you helped me just now.
"Haha, Mr. Liu is so cheerful, I won't talk nonsense with you." Huang Shouren laughed, "If you want to win the position of crown prince, you will naturally need the support of the ministers of the DPRK..."
Liu Mo quickly analyzed: If you need the support of ministers, you must have a reputation and political achievements, and give them enough benefits!
All of this is inseparable from money, Liu Mo understood it instantly again!
"Master Huang, the three most important industries of our Great Xia Dynasty are tea, salt and iron." Liu Mo said, "I am not proficient in the tea ceremony and iron industry, but this salt... I am very good at it!"
"Oh?" Huang Shouren and Tan Guangyan's eyes suddenly lit up, "Master Liu, please don't talk nonsense."
"How dare you!" Liu Mo's eyes were extremely firm.
"Haha, God is really helping us!" Huang Shouren was overjoyed.
It turns out that the Great Xia Dynasty, like ancient times on earth, had very strict control over salt, and all edible salt had to be purchased from officials.
Selling private salt is illegal, because in ancient times the main purpose of illegal salt sales was to control the tax revenue of the salt industry; but now it is illegal because it is also related to people's health.
However, if there is a salt industry monopoly, there must be private salt. The stricter the salt industry monopoly, the better the private salt will be sold and the higher the profit will be.
Some businessmen see profits and have no choice but to take risks.
In recent years, Jianglin Prefecture has been the state capital with the most serious salt illicit activities.
At the same time, Liu Mo also learned another surprising information.
Huang Shouren was actually the Taifu of the current dynasty, with a rank of third rank. The reason why he became the prefect of Jianglin was because the Emperor of Daxia sent him to investigate the illegal salt matter.
After three years of investigation, Huang Shouren finally got some clues.
The reason why Jiang Lin Mansion was flooded with illegal activities was because all the fingers were pointed at a certain prince of the Great Xia Dynasty.
No need to guess, they came here to sell illegal salt to make money and seize power.
The prefect is in charge of the county, the governor is in charge of the prefect, the prime minister assists the emperor, and commands a hundred officials including the governor, and above the hundred officials are the princes. This is an existence that even the prime minister cannot control...
What's more, Huang Shouren.
For this reason, he was also having a headache over Jiang Lin Mansion's salt tax.
Liu Mo smiled after hearing this, "Master Huang, please feel free to leave this matter to me, Liu Mo!"
Huang Shouren was shocked again by these words, "Master Liu, this matter can be big or small..."
"You can issue a military order!" Liu Mo vowed, "If it doesn't work, I, Liu Mo, will come to see you."
"Okay!" Huang Shouren slammed the table and stood up, "Since Mr. Liu is so confident, I will leave the Jianglin salt tax to you. Come, come, come. Mr. Qin, you and I will respect Mr. Liu together. One cup.”
The three of them drank together and chatted for a long time. It was not until the next day that Dongfang Lu was white, and then they said goodbye reluctantly.
~~~
Why Liu Mo dares to praise such Haikou is very simple.
Because when Liu Mo was on Earth, his father left the countryside to make a living in the city. The first job he found was in a salt factory, and he stayed there for decades.
With the help of his eyes and ears, and the fact that Liu Mo went to the factory for business on weekends, he already had a clear grasp of the technology of making salt.
Selling illegal salt in Daxia Dynasty is a violation and you will be imprisoned.
Signing an agreement with an official to help them produce official salt is a serious job.
The reason why private salt is rampant in Jiang Lin Mansion is just a possibility: the price is low.
If I, Liu Mo, could produce official salt that was more affordable than yours, people would be crazy to buy your private salt.
Restaurant business? How much money can you make!
Can you make money by making official salt? joke!
Not only can you make money, but you can also get a long-term ticket for a giant ship.
Tsk tsk!!!
Of course, having said that, giving up the restaurant business?
Impossible, impossible to give up in this life, this is the birthplace.
After being trained by Liu Mo, Wang Xiaoqi is almost ready to stand alone.
The beer-making business does not require complicated cooking skills, and now it is also riding on the big wheel of Huang Shouren (actually a certain prince).
You Li Guangrun, Chen Zhiyuan are the prince's people, and so am I and Liu Mo now.
We all have similar backers, but I don’t believe you still dare to blatantly mess with me!
It can be said that the business of "Jingshui Pavilion" is on the right track from now on, and I, Liu Mo, don't need to worry about it anymore. "Jingshui Pavilion" was handed over to Xiao Qizi, and Lin Shiqi supervised it as the proprietress. It was such a happy decision!
After returning to "Jingshui Pavilion", Liu Mo immediately went to visit Xin'er.
The good news is that the laws of the Great Xia Dynasty clearly stipulate that pregnant women are not allowed to use any criminal law for any reason.
Apart from some shock, there was not much damage to the body.
But Liu Mo was still worried and immediately scolded his men for not inviting the doctor.
However, Wang Xiaoqi told him, "Uncle, Mr. Huang had the doctor come last night!"
While Liu Mo, Huang Shouren, and Mr. Tan were drinking and talking, Xin'er had already taken the anti-fetal medicine.
Hearing this, Liu Mo breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as Xin'er is in good health, the pain he has suffered will be worth it.
After comforting Xiner, he came to the front hall. Liu Mo summoned everyone and immediately announced his "promotion" plan!
[In view of Wang Xiaoqi's loyalty and excellent ability to do things, he is hereby promoted to the new shopkeeper of 'Jingshui Pavilion'. 】
Hear the news. Wang Xiaoqi was stunned at first.
After confirming again and again that he had heard correctly, he fell to his knees with a plop and was so excited that he could not speak incoherently.
Time passed quickly, and Liu Mo's first New Year's Eve in the Great Xia Dynasty was considered a success.
With three beautiful wives as his companions, he became a father-to-be, and at the same time he became famous in Rongcheng.
During the New Year, although there are no relatives in Rongcheng, there are many social activities.
The difference is that after boarding Huang Shouren's big ship, Liu Mo's status as a "red-top businessman" made him change from being "active" to "passive".
From Rongcheng County government officials to shop owners and market owners, waves of people came to "walk around" one after another.
Everyone wants to curry favor with this "popular man" in front of the prefect Jiang Lin!
There were piles of gifts, including all kinds of valuable antiques, jades, and supplements.
The most exaggerated thing is that the owner of Chengdong Restaurant said in front of Lin Shiqi and other ladies that he wanted to find a fourth concubine for Liu Mo.
What's even more outrageous is that the portraits are all ready.
When Yuan'er heard this, she became anxious and directly revealed the identity of Liu Mo's son-in-law.
If you want to marry a concubine, you must get Lin Shiqi's nod.
The scene was extremely embarrassing.
You can't blame others. Liu Mo came to Rongcheng and married three wives in just a few months.
This has to make others mistakenly think that Liu Mo is an LSP, and it is reasonable to give him a concubine if he likes him.
Liu Mo made a rough calculation and found that selling these gifts would be enough to cover the expenses of "Jingshui Pavilion" for half a year.
Why were there so many corrupt officials on earth in ancient times? Now Liu Mo had an epiphany.
Sugar-coated bullets are too hard to resist!
Liu Mo, who was praised by all the stars, was not carried away, and he still performed all the etiquette that he should do.
When you receive a gift from others, you naturally need to return the gift, and you also need to be humane and sophisticated.
In this way, Liu Mo spent his first New Year busy.
On the night of the third day of the lunar month, Wang Xiaoqi brought news that due to Huang Shouren's death order, the case must be closed before the tenth day of the first lunar month.
For this reason, tomorrow, the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Chen Zhiyuan will interrogate Niu San and others again!!!
Liu Mo, who is related to this case, naturally needs to go to court again.
But for Liu Mo, it is simply equivalent to watching a theater for free on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year!
