Datang: Let you supervise the country and become an emperor through the ages

Chapter 372
So, he mobilized a hundred refugees and headed to Salt Mountain.

Things here still need to be explored slowly, so there is no need to transfer all the people here at once.

In the evening, Lao Lu and Gongsun Li came over to finish dinner with Li Fu.

Halfway through the meal was after the meeting, Lao Lu suddenly sighed and said, "Hey, Your Highness, this matter is going so smoothly, why am I always a little uneasy?"

Gongsunli was stunned for a moment, then said: "What's the matter, it should be a good thing that things are going well, why are you still worried?"

Li Fu smiled, put down the bowl and chopsticks, and said softly: "That's right, if things go too smoothly, people will relax their vigilance, and there may be mistakes."

"Old Lu, these days, you should work harder and keep an eye on Yanshan. I always have a premonition that someone will come to make trouble."

Lao Lu nodded. Li Fu didn't need to ask him to do this, he would have done it.

There was nothing to say all night, and a few days later, a great news came from the front line.

After Tubo was conquered, the Turks were also defeated by the cavalry of the Tang Dynasty.

This time, Li Er was very happy.

Even the common people in Chang'an City put on lanterns and festoons, as if celebrating the New Year.

But just when Li Er was happy, Queen Changsun seemed a little unhappy.

Li Er didn't know what the reason was, maybe it was because she was seriously ill and her mood was also affected.

At this time, in Chang'an City, another incident happened and was circulated among the people.

That is, in the East Market, suddenly a merchant was selling salt, and it was all high-quality refined salt.

All the merchants were shocked by the news. After all, it had been a long time since they had seen such high-quality salt in Chang'an City.

"I heard that the salt is not only very good, but also the price is ridiculously low."

"That's right, if this kind of salt appeared in the past, the price would have to be several times the current price."

"After dinner, I have to go and have a look."

In a certain restaurant, a group of businessmen gathered together to discuss.

This mysterious salt merchant who suddenly appeared made people very curious.

Now the salt in Chang'an City is basically in the hands of a few large salt merchants, and the rest are sold by scattered retail investors.

This piece of fat has never been distributed to others.

So at this time, such a salt merchant suddenly appeared, and everyone was very curious.

And these salts are naturally Li Fu's salt.

The daily output of his salt mountain can now produce almost [-] catties of salt.

Although the quantity is not particularly large, its quality is indeed unmatched, so it was instantly welcomed by the people.

Now, as long as the common people go out to buy salt, they all rush to buy Li Fu's salt.

And in this restaurant, the two brothers of the Shen family are also here.

They sold Yanshan to Li Fu before, and they were drinking here at this moment.

Anyway, they earned 2000 taels of silver for the family, and they are still a little flustered now.

Listening to those businessmen talking, Shen Jie said to his eldest brother Shen Lian: "Brother, listen, what are those people talking about?"

Because his family used to be a salt merchant, he was quite sensitive when he heard others talking about salt.

After hearing this, Shen Lian also kept an eye out and listened carefully to what those people were talking about.

Then, when he heard that someone was selling salt in Dongshi, his eyes lit up.

He is a man who likes money and has a keen sense of it.

As soon as he heard the news, he realized that it was definitely profitable.

This Shen Lian also inherited his father Shen Ku's personality, and he really valued money.

Moreover, relying on his family's influence, he also did a lot of dirty business in Chang'an City.

This time, when Shen Lian heard the news, his heart began to fall again.

The price of salt in Dongshi is very cheap, and what is usually sold is coarse salt, which will be bitter when you put it in for cooking, and the quality is particularly poor.

However, since there is no substitute, ordinary people can only eat this kind of salt.

If I can buy cheap refined salt in Dongshi, and then transport it to other markets to sell, I will definitely be able to sell it at a high price.

As for the price it can be sold for, it depends on the quality of the salt.

"Let's go, let's go to Dongshi now." Thinking of this, Shen Lian couldn't bear it anymore, called Shen Jie and left the restaurant.

Shen Jie is usually a lazy person. When he heard that he was going to leave, he reluctantly said: "Oh, brother, I haven't finished eating yet."

"Don't eat it, what time is it, you still know how to eat it!" Shen Lian said as soon as she got angry, she patted the table.

Shen Jie has been afraid of this big brother since he was a child, and now he is afraid to speak when he gets angry.

After putting down the bowl and chopsticks, he could only follow Shen Lian and leave honestly.

Afterwards, the two brothers went out, got into the car, and headed straight to Dongshi.

And Li Fu in Dongshi is sitting leisurely now.

Not far away, he saw the two Shen family brothers running towards him.

He had already expected that the two brothers would definitely come.

"Old Lu, look, they're really here." Li Fu looked in that direction and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Lao Lu also looked in that direction and said, "The Shen family is the most greedy, and they will definitely not let go of such a good opportunity."

Hearing this, Li Fu sneered.

"These two people dared to arrange their own people to be undercover agents for me. I must teach the Shen family a lesson this time."

In his own mountain of salt, there are secret workers sent by the Shen family, and Li Fu has known this for a long time.

However, Li Fu did not remove them immediately, just to avoid alarming others.

In fact, Long Jingjing discovered this matter.

This girl was not only able to train soldiers, but also helped her find out the spy by the way.

Through this time, Li Fu's impression of her also changed.

Unexpectedly, this Long Jingjing is still rough and subtle. I really underestimated her before.

Now, Li Fu has already grasped the movements of those who entered the Yanshan camp.

He even knew exactly when they reported information to the Shen family.

"Your Highness, you can really hold your breath." Lao Lu also praised Li Fu.

If it was another person, he would have been furious if he knew that his territory had been inserted into the secret work.

However, the owner of his own family was able to stand still and prepare to wait for a suitable time before catching them. This is really impressive.

Li Fu smiled and said: "Others have challenged me first, so I have to use some means."
