Chapter 333

Zhang Hao asked Chen Lian, there was news from the government office now. When Chen Lian heard it, he immediately said that there was no news from the capital. When Zhang Hao heard it, he stood there and thought for a while and said, "You add it and ask the emperor to send someone to notify me, and he said that I was impeached and asked me to explain in writing!"

"Ah?" Chen Lian looked at Zhang Hao with no idea, not knowing why it meant, why did the emperor have to do such a thing? Besides, the emperor will listen to Zhang Hao.

"After adding it, send it back!" Zhang Hao said to Chen Lian, who nodded and added that sentence.

Then Zhang Hao sat there thinking about what to do next and how to get all the people from the King of Jin to participate in this game. It is not enough now, and they can't be beaten up in one go.

"Sir, I'm ready!" Chen Lian said to Zhang Hao.

"Well, I'll send it back when I'm done!" Zhang Hao waved his hand to Chen Lian and said, and he continued to think about it. Chen Lian would go out immediately.

At this time, Hu Zongxian and Zhang Juzheng also came in from outside and bowed to Zhang Hao.

"How is it done?" Zhang Hao asked them.

"The entire Shanxi Road has been fully deployed today. At the same time, we have delivered some places in Henan. It is estimated that other places will be faster and faster. There will probably be more places to deliver tomorrow!" Hu Zongxian bowed to Zhang Hao and said.

"Okay, even if it is supplied to the whole country, it is enough. By the way, the salt farm in Shanxi can produce one million salt a year, while the production of Hedong Salt Farm, Changlu Salt Farm, and Lianghuai Salt Farm is even greater. You go to the salt farm in Shanxi tomorrow and announce the rules for them.

From now on, the court will purchase their salt for 3 cents per kilogram. At the same time, tax exemption is exempted. All salts are tax-free. Before, the salt merchants also had to collect taxes from those salt households, and then the salt merchants handed them to the court for taxes. Tomorrow I will ask the governor, did the salt merchants really pay such taxes?

As for you, you must stabilize the salt households when you get there and tell them the policy that the salt in the future can only be sold to the government. If it is sold to private individuals, it will be a death sentence and must not be committed!" Zhang Hao said to Hu Zongxian.

"I understand, I'll be there early tomorrow morning!" Hu Zongxian nodded immediately and said.

"Zhang Juzheng, you have to follow him, and you will be in charge of the matter in Shanxi in the future!" Zhang Hao said to Zhang Juzheng.

"Yes, sir!" Zhang Juzheng immediately bowed and said.

"Well, there are no other things, the framework must be built!" Zhang Hao continued to say to them.

"Yes, sir!" the two of them bowed again and said, and soon they went out. Zhang Hao sat there thinking about things.

At this moment, in Zhu Xinlong's mansion, Zhu Xinlong is also waiting for news from the capital, especially Hu Zongxian has started to lay out salt. He is very anxious. Once the crisis of salt shortage is resolved, then these salt merchants will be in trouble, and the people of the King of Jin will be in trouble.

"Uncle, what should I do now? They have already put the salt in. Then there is no salt crisis. How can we bring down Zhang Hao?" Zhu Zhenyan looked at Zhu Xinlong in a hurry and said.

"I know, I am also thinking about countermeasures now. The key is that Zhang Hao is too difficult to deal with. He takes a heavy move as soon as he comes, and he doesn't give us the chance to think about countermeasures at all!" Zhu Xinlong said depressedly at this moment.

Zhang Hao's movements were so fast that they couldn't react. Who would have thought that the next day Zhang Hao arrived, he started to clean up the salt merchants and started selling salt now. The court had not yet concluded how to deal with the salt, so Zhang Hao would sell it first.

"Uncle, I feel like I want to notify my father, I can't wait!" Zhu Zhenyan said to Zhu Xinlong.

"I have already notified that your father actually knows everything. However, now we still need the support of the ministers in the capital. Some things cannot be published for those ministers to know. If the ministers know, they will not impeach Zhang Hao. So now we can only hide this matter from it. As long as we can hide it, just let Zhang Hao come down!" Zhu Xinlong sat there, touching his forehead and said.

"Then, if the emperor knew that Zhang Hao had done this, would he let Zhang Hao get out so soon?" Zhu Zhenyan said as soon as he heard this, looking at Zhu Xinlong.

"This is what I am worried about, but if those ministers know that Zhang Hao can solve this salt crisis, who would dare to impeach Zhang Hao? It's the same with your father now. There's no way, it's hard to get rid of the tiger. If Zhang Hao cannot be defeated, we all belong to the King of Jin," Zhu Xinlong said anxiously.

"Then, that's really not possible, find a chance?" Zhu Zhenyan said as he gestured around his neck with his hand.

"You are crazy. If Zhang Hao dies, everyone in our King of Jin will die. Do you know? Is he an imperial envoy, or the son of Lu Anhou, the British Duke Zhang Rong! You are not allowed to do anything nonsense!" Zhu Xinlong was shocked when he heard this, and immediately stared at Zhu Xinlong and warned.

"But, uncle, if Zhang Hao doesn't fall, will our King of Jin have a good life? I can't figure out why the emperor is staring at our Shanxi!" Zhu Xinlong said in anger.

"Why do you think? If you didn't threaten Zhang Hao at the beginning, such a thing could have happened? The emperor saw that the Wu family had our support and was so brave, so he started. What do you think? Zhang Hao would be fine to deal with our King of Jin? If it weren't for the emperor's instructions, why would he dare to do this? Who gave him the courage?" Zhu Xinlong looked at Zhu Zhenjing very angrily and shouted.

"Yes, but, just such a small thing, is it worth it? The emperor just dislikes people from our King of Jin!" Zhu Zhenjing immediately said angrily at Zhu Xinlong.

"Okay, don't cause trouble. What we need now is to find a way to make Zhang Hao overthrown in the court. Now two cabinet ministers have taken action, and the emperor cannot ignore it!" Zhu Xinlong looked at Zhu Zhenyu helplessly and said.

"But what if we fail, what should we do?" Zhu Zhenyan looked at Zhu Xinlong and asked.

"I don't know, I can only pray now. There is no way out for this matter. If we fail, the consequences will be very serious!" Zhu Xinlong leaned there helplessly and said,

At this moment, the salt merchants also lived in restaurants. They found that they could no longer go out and could not leave Taiyuan City. They were free to move around in the city. When they went out, they all had Jinyiwei followed them. Moreover, the people who left the city now needed to check. Now, they were under house arrest here.

"What's the news about King Jin?" A salt merchant looked at Zhang Sijiao and asked.

"I don't know, there is no news. My elder brother wrote to me that many ministers are impeaching Zhang Hao now, but I don't know if it will be effective. Now everyone hopes that the emperor can severely punish Zhang Hao, but the emperor trusts Zhang Hao very much, so this matter still needs to be waited!" Zhang Sijiao looked at them and started talking.

"The same is true on my side. Now it depends on the effect of impeachment!" Fan Tianming also looked at them and said helplessly.

"Wait, if we fail, we probably have to be beheaded, but I don't accept it, and we did nothing wrong, right? Why do we kill our heads? Isn't it just that we didn't sell salt? Just beheaded?" Wang Chongyi looked at them and asked.

"Yes, we didn't do anything, why should we behead our heads and why should we search our house?" Zhang Sijiao thought of this and immediately looked at them and asked.

"That's right, we hide salt, but we don't want to sell it. We're just still taking stock of it. We're going to sell it these days!" Wang Chongyi looked at them and asked, and they nodded repeatedly.

But Fan Tianming said, "You forgot. When Zhang Hao looked for us on the first day, we said that there is no salt now, and we wrote the document!"

"This!" These people were immediately stunned. They almost forgot this. Now they have the handle in Zhang Hao's hands.

"How can we get those essays back? It's okay to give them as much money, but it really doesn't work. Let's talk to Zhang Hao. How about it? Let's give him money and let him give us the essays?" Wang Chongyi looked at them and asked.

"It's impossible. Zhang Hao wouldn't do such a thing. Zhang Hao can make money, and his ability to make money is much greater than that of us. But even so, he can't search the house, right? He can't behead the whole family, right?" Zhang Sijiao continued to look at them and asked.

"This is hard to say. The salt is related to the court. We have controlled the salt and will not sell it. Hey, we really shouldn't have listened to the King of Jin and the others at the beginning. If we continue to sell salt, Zhang Hao will at most take back the salt and give us money. He will not be able to search the house. I feel that we were wrong in this move. We provoked Zhang Hao, but instead gave Zhang Hao a chance!" Fan Tianming sat there and sighed.

They heard it and nodded, feeling a little regretful. They thought they shouldn't have listened to the King of Jin and the others and wanted to fight against the court. Now the King of Jin can't fight against the court. How could they fight like these businessmen? It would be better to cooperate with Zhang Hao from the beginning. In this way, their family business will be at least maintained!

"What should I do now?" Wang Chongyi looked at them and asked. No one could think of a solution.

The next day, Zhang Hao went to the iron ore. Zhang Hao wanted to know how the iron produced in Shanxi is? And how the iron will be sold in the future. These are all things that require on-site inspections.
