Chapter 554 Sleeves (48)

After making tea, Mu Fangnian handed a cup to Mo Anan, "How about it, what's the deal for me this time?"

"Salt."

"Oh?" Mu Fangnian frowned, "Where did you get the salt? If it's private salt, I advise you not to intervene. If it's not convenient, I have it here."

Mo An'an smiled, her heart warmed slightly, and she was not angry that Mu Fangnian misunderstood her.

"Brother Shumo misunderstood, Brother Yu wants to do something big this time."

Knowing that the little brother was not trying to smuggle salt, Mu Fangnian was relieved.

He was afraid that his little brother would be disheartened because of being demoted, and thus he would have the idea of ​​"being an official for thousands of miles is only for money"!

"What does Ziren want to do? It's not easy to move the current share of each family."

Mo An'an took a sip of tea, and said, "It's not necessary to move their current share... Now the production of salt is not much, and there are many salt quotations from the late emperor's time, and many of them have not been cashed in yet..."

Mu Fangnian didn't know what Mo An'an was going to do?But he still shook his head and said, "It's impossible, there are only so many places where salt is produced, and..."

The output of this salt not only cannot keep up with the amount of salt released, but also cannot keep up with the demand of the people.

In particular, official salt is not cheap.

Therefore, there is a market for private salt.

The quality of these private salts is no worse than official salt, and the price is cheaper, which has an impact on official salt.

This is not a fatal place!
These private salt dealers did not pay even one tael of tax and silver, and bribed local officials and Beijing officials with a lot of money, and even the eunuchs in the palace were able to get online.

Then, officials at all levels turned a blind eye to their actions and even escorted them.

So much so that now, these private salt dealers have developed into a monster.They can even control where local officials go or stay!
If the officials were sent by the court, it would be the best outcome if they were not allowed to collude and be driven away, and some were even dismissed from office... And last year, a colleague of Yan Ke lost his life in office!

The official is not big, just from the sixth rank.

But the exposed problem is very serious!

These private salt dealers have developed to the point where they will kill people if they don't obey.

Nowadays, high-ranking officials have lost control over these people, and these private salt dealers have turned against customers.

They are no longer satisfied with manipulating the price of salt, and now they have begun to manipulate the government!

However, their power is too large, from the imperial palace, court hall, down to the local areas, they penetrate into every hole.

The most shocking thing is--

The salt in Daqi is generally well salt and lake salt, and these places... it may be too scary to say!

These places are roughly controlled by private salt dealers.

Officials sent by the imperial court to serve as officials in these areas, the first thing they do when they arrive in the area is not to open the government office, but to visit these private salt dealers.

Only after getting their approval can you be an official here, otherwise...

Therefore, the imperial court is also helpless!

As for killing all these people from top to bottom... that's unrealistic.

Not to mention how many salt households they have under their control, even the housekeepers and nurses, there are hundreds of them... One private salt dealer may be nothing, but ten?Or more?

Even if there are only ten private salt dealers, that is armed with thousands of people, plus the salt households under their hands (it seems to be called Zaohu), and they are wrapped up again, which is enough to set off a civil uprising!

The salt policy has reached a time when it has to be changed, but it is difficult to correct it!
　Recently, the two stories in a row are not very Su, but it seems that everyone still likes Su Wen more?

　　Do the cuties prefer the previous style or the current style?

　　Can you tell me something?
