Chapter 510 Gao Tings highlight moment(1/2)
Li Shimin naturally heard the meaning of his words and nodded with a heavy face.
"You will accompany me to the west city salt field later to have a look -"
"good!"
Wang Zi'an's face didn't look good either.
The salt field in the west of the city was my own idea, and I also had my own shares. Even most of the workers were temporary secondments from refugees recruited by my own coal company.
Now, there is something wrong with this salt, and I am absolutely not responsible for it!
"I will accompany you to have a look -"
Du Ruhui didn't hesitate and followed immediately.
Then several people got on the carriage and went straight to the salt field in the west of the city.
Although it just snowed yesterday, because this is the main passage between Yancheng and Chang'an, this road is rarely cleaned and the construction is quite smooth.
After leaving Chang'an, under Li Shimin's urging, the carriage drove very quickly.
The journey was very fast, more than twenty miles, and in less than half an hour, we had arrived at our destination.
Although Wang Zi'an is the big boss, this is really his first time coming to this place.
This was originally a barren mountain. Because it was rich in mineral salts, even vegetation barely grew and it looked bare. The salt farm was built on a high slope at the base of the mountain.
It is surrounded by a long wall, occupying almost half of the mountainside. Judging from the scale, it must be several hundred acres away.
Moreover, Li Shimin actually used public weapons for personal use. He mobilized a group of troops and set up camp nearby, directly placing the area within the restricted area of the military camp.
On weekdays, salt is transported under the guise of transporting military supplies.
If it hadn't been for the sudden opening of 128 Datang Royal Experimental chain stores this time, many people would still not know that this walled place is a salt farm.
Without saying hello to anyone, Li Shimin, Du Ruhui and others broke into the salt processing factory directly.
It wasn't until Wang Zi'an personally inspected the quality of the salt that he was in charge of the place and hurried over. When he saw Li Shimin's presence, he couldn't help but be startled, and he quickly bowed and saluted.
"The villain Zhang Jia has seen the shopkeeper——"
Although the production workers were all transferred by Wang Zi'an from Changle Coal Trading Company, the management staff were all staff arranged by Li Shimin.
Especially the steward here is an elite captain of Baiqisi, and he is also the only person in the salt field who knows Li Shimin's true identity, so he was shocked and did not dare to think too much. He just stood aside with his hands down in a polite manner.
"Have any outsiders ever come in or out of here?"
Li Shimin's face was as dark as water.
Zhang Jia couldn't help but feel a thump in his heart, and his heart suddenly lifted.
"Never-"
“Is the production process sloppy and sloppy, or is it cutting corners?”
Before Li Shimin finished speaking, Zhang Jia knelt down with a pop.
"The villain doesn't dare. All the processes are watched by the villain with his own eyes. He will never dare to be careless..."
Li Shimin's face softened slightly, he threw away the white salt in his hand, patted the remaining salt foam on his hand, and nodded casually.
"It's okay if you don't, otherwise you know the consequences - get up..."
Zhang Jia's jacket was soaked through.
I got up from the ground, secretly wiped the sweat from my forehead, and secretly felt happy in my heart.
Fortunately, I didn't slack off during this period, otherwise if something went wrong, I might have to walk away without food.
Although he was not aware of the poisoning incident that occurred in Chang'an City at this time, he vaguely guessed that something big might have happened. Otherwise, in such a small place, how could His Majesty and several prime ministers come to inspect it in person at the same time?
Wang Zi'an ignored them and checked each assembly line. There was no problem at all. He checked the warehouse again and found that there were no major problems except for a little dampness. Then he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
To be honest, he was really worried about something going wrong here.
If there is a problem with this part, the problem will be huge.
Not to mention whether he would be implicated, I am afraid that all the people in Chang'an would suffer an unreasonable disaster. He knew what happened in Chang'an today, and he also knew how many people bought it.
You know, after nearly two months of hunger marketing, most ordinary people in Chang'an have reached the point of extreme salt deficiency.
Therefore, the salt from my salt farm has now flowed into thousands of households along with the 128 experimental chain stores. If something goes wrong, the consequences will be disastrous.
After Wang Zi'an confirmed that there was no problem here, everyone could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.
As long as there are no problems here, the problems are still within control.
Several people worked non-stop and carefully investigated the entire transportation process of this batch of salt. They confirmed that no outsiders had intervened before this batch of salt entered the chain store. Only then did they feel relieved.
It’s not your own problem!
This problem is easily solved!
Standing on the hillside, looking back at the majestic city of Chang'an, Li Shimin couldn't help but feel a sense of evil in his eyes.
It’s this group of people again!
Prince An couldn't help being shocked. He originally thought that he had used the greatest malice towards those people, but unexpectedly, he still underestimated their malice.
"Sure enough, if there is still a conscience in this world, it is because the weight paid is not enough. This is obviously for money, no matter what the means..."
He took a deep breath and barely suppressed the turbulent emotions in his heart.
"Let's go back to Chang'an——"
Looking at the place where Wang Zi'an stood just now, the hard rock had turned into powder. Li Shimin and others couldn't help but take a breath. This brat's force became more and more terrifying.
Several people looked at Wang Zi'an's back and felt something strange.
…
This time, the response speed of Chang'an County and Wannian County surprised everyone.
No one expected that these two county magistrates, who had never had a special sense of presence, would suddenly act so decisively. Gao Ting, in particular, was even more powerful. They directly blocked all Datang Royal Salt chain stores in their jurisdiction and seized all personnel.

What a strong point!
Gao Ting's actions made the scholars gathered in Chang'an feel as if they had been given a shot of blood.
This is a true scholar, a role model for our generation!
He has a strong character and will never give in even if it involves the royal family or His Majesty.
Some young scholars were inspired by Operation Gaoting and even spontaneously participated in the operation, helping the county government officials and police officers to maintain order and blockade the streets.
The action was too swift.
It was beyond everyone's expectation.
Therefore, some people directly took control of them before they had time to deal with them.
Although the imperial court has not yet dispatched troops to assist, the streets are now full of eyes, especially those scholars, who are keeping an eye on these stores as if they have been given blood.
Not to mention trying to get closer, even if you take a second look, you have to keep an eye on him like a thief.
However, when they thought this was the limit of Gao Ting, Gao Ting had already rushed to Wang's house on horseback with a sword in hand. There was a lot of movement on his side, and he quickly attracted the attention of many people.
"Gaoming Mansion is taking people to the north. Looking at the direction, it seems that they are heading towards Anrenfang..."
"What are you doing? Are you going to catch the bad guys?"
"No, we must not let Gao Mingfu go into danger alone..."
"Yes, it is time to eradicate evil and eradicate evil. How can we, scholars, be so unworthy of our lives in the face of important events and just watch here with cold eyes..."
"..."
Spring will be around the corner after the new year. Although the newspaper said that the previous method of recruiting scholars has been changed, in this day and age, who is still afraid of being famous?
Especially in the name of standing up for the people and upholding justice, no amount is too much.
Normally, I suffer from the lack of opportunities. Now that the opportunity has come, if I don’t seize it, I will be a fool!
Of course, not all of them are such speculators. There are also many who simply read too much and have no blood in their hearts. They really ignore it and want to contribute to justice.
Therefore, the news about Gao Ting spread rapidly among the crowd, driven intentionally or unintentionally by interested people.
I don’t know how it was spread, but it was passed around, and it became known that Gaoming Mansion in Wannian County, holding a sword and riding a horse, wanted to bravely break into the tiger’s den and be at odds with the thieves.
This kind of plot can be put into teahouse storytelling.
So, later on, the crowd behind Gao Ting gathered more and more, more and more. At first, they were just scholars, but later, some ordinary people who had some inexplicable reasons and didn't even understand the situation came over.
The crowd gathered more and more, and the momentum became louder and louder.
"A real celebrity in Gaoming Mansion——"
"The Gaoming Mansion did not hesitate to sacrifice their lives for the sake of the people. The wise ministers of ancient times would not give in!"
"..."
