Chapter 249 Lingshan’s Engagement

Half a year later, the young eunuch from the West Factory sent a message to Ning Zhongze.The entire Qingcheng faction was massacred, and Yu Canghai's whereabouts are unknown. It is said that he was killed by Lin Pingzhi in front of his parents' grave.Ren Woxing takes over the post of leader of the Sun Moon God Cult.The internal news is that the Dongfang Invincible of the Sun Moon God Sect is fake, and the deputy leader Yang Lianting is missing.It is rumored that Yang Lianting has disappeared from the Sun and Moon Sect for a year.

Yue Lingshan was also engaged to the prince Zhu Wenruo.Three years later, Wen Ruo opened his mansion and got married.The emperor asked Ning Zhongze what he wanted as a betrothal gift. Ning Zhongze learned that the salt tax in the Ming Dynasty was very low, so he asked the emperor for a salt production license, saying that the harvest of the fields was up to God, and salt was profitable every year.It's just that the salt tax emperor sent eunuchs to collect taxes.An embroidery shop was opened in Songjiang Mansion.Because of the tight stitching and vivid embroidery, it was purchased and sold by the Purity Party.Zhu Wenruo, the prime minister of Yue Lingshan, was named King of Songjiang and his vassal territory was in Songjiang Prefecture.Zhu Wenruo and Yue Lingshan are still in the capital.Ningzhong came here to help with city planning.After a while, I got to know this beautiful lady, Dongfang Jing.

Songjiang Prefecture is close to Jiangsu and Suzhou Prefecture.Ningzhong, which was also close to the seaside (where Shanghai is today), asked Zhu Wenruo to choose Dingfu at the mouth of the Huangpu River, just across the river from his mother's brother, King Jiading.Building cities in China is a very interesting process.Foreign cities are the first to build city walls.In contrast, China built city walls first and then built cities.This time, the Ministry of Industry used new materials to build the city wall. The interior of the city wall was rammed with soil from the excavated moat, and the exterior was made of cement brought by Ningzhong Ze.But it was not poured at once.Instead, it starts from the foundation and is made layer by layer to look like city bricks.It turns out that ancient people also knew that thermal expansion and contraction were afraid of cracking of the city wall cast in one piece.In this way, it still looks like city bricks poured with cement.After building a circle around the city wall, the cement below is dry, and the second layer is poured on top.By analogy, the four walls were built in only half a year.Ningzhong provided pressure well design drawings when designing the city.In this way, Songwang Mansion can be built like a European-style castle.Build a water room on the roof, and tap water can be used below.Yue Lingshan wants heating and a hot shower.Flush the toilet.and hanging gardens. (Garden greenhouse)

Ning Zhongze and the young eunuch of Xichang (now the tax eunuch) built a thousand acres of farmland on the east coast of the city (south of the Huangpu River).The floor is directly paved with cement, and sea water from the Huangpu River is used to pump seawater into the salt pans.Four to five tons of sea salt can be obtained in three to five days.After grinding the salt into fine salt using a water mill, he divided the salt in half with the eunuch from the West Factory of the Salt Tax Bureau.The little eunuch brought the salt into the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region and sold it again, and the profit he could make was several times the original salt tax.A censor sued Ningzhong for competing with the people, but Ningzhong directly cut the price of salt in half.This is almost the same price as private salt.Ning Zhongze went to court and said that he wanted to make concessions that would benefit the people.And it was spread that if anyone sued her again, she would drop half the price.The censor sued her this time for disrupting the salt price market, and Ningzhong actually lowered the price again.In conjunction with the King of Jiading, he also opened a salt farm in the north of the Huangpu River.The two salt farms produce about three tons of salt per day.The status of the salt merchants was suddenly reduced to pieces.The emperor found the right opportunity to let the vassal princes from various places around the sea open salt farms, but the tax eunuchs of the salt farms were his own.This matter was left to the little eunuch who made salt with Ning Zhongze.
