I really don't want to lose the country

Such a domineering tone, let alone a person or a family, even an empire would not dare to be so arrogant.

Does Xiaoyao Mansion have so much money?

Ye Zhen didn't believe it, and said with a straight face: "Qing'er, do you know where you are? Do you know how much money is needed to buy all the official salt, I'm afraid it's not enough to buy your Xiaoyao Mansion ten thousand times!"

If you don't know it, you will be embarrassed if you have some money.

If you are not in charge, you don't know how much firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive, and how much money the empire lacks.

Dare to boast so much.

"Your Majesty, I know what I'm doing, I understand very well!" Ye Qingbai said:

"I don't know how much official salt the Ministry of Households produces in a year, but I know that there are people who have the money to eat all the official salt, even if it is too much."

Seeing Ye Qing's confident appearance, Ye Zhen couldn't help feeling suspicious again.

Asked: "Who can?"

Anyway, after thinking about it, Ye Zhen couldn't think of anyone so rich.

Enough to eat all the official salt of the Great Zhou Empire.

And willing to be slaughtered.

Ye Qing said with a smile: "This person does not refer to one person, but many people. Among them, His Majesty is one of them, so are all countries, and so are the barbarians in all directions, and there are countless countries thousands of miles away!"

"Eh..." Ye Zhen was taken aback for a moment, as if he understood what Ye Qing meant.

Then he sneered: "You want to sell it to everyone, to the surrounding countries and barbarians, you think too much, every country has its own salt-making families and governments, and every place has its own channels, my big Zhou official salt has no price advantage at all. , it cannot be sold, and no one will buy it.”

Ye Zhen was a little disappointed.

I thought Ye Qing's intentions were shocking.

In the end, after going around in circles, it turned out to be this.

The official salt of the Great Zhou was not even bought by the people of the Great Zhou, let alone other countries.

The price of salt produced by the Liu family is lower and the quality is better, but if they want to enter other countries, they will not be able to compete with the local salt merchants in other countries because of the high cost of transportation and horses.

Not to mention the official salt of Da Zhou.

"Your Majesty, this is exactly what I want. Since the reason for the decline of official salt is that the price and quality of salt merchants from the Liu family or other countries are better than my Dazhou official salt, then if we start from this aspect, there must be more It's their time." Ye Qing vowed:

"As long as you give me three times, after three days, I will bring something to His Majesty, and His Majesty will make his own decision at that time!"

"Oh! Bring me something." Ye Zhen suddenly became interested again.

Seeing Ye Qing's persistence, he said, "Okay, I will enter the palace after three days, I want to see your surprise, I hope you can really make the official salt alive, and bring more money and taxes to my Da Zhou."

"It's Your Majesty! The minister will surprise you."

After coming out of the imperial study room, Ye Qing began to look through the salt refining materials obtained from the check-in of the Tai Chi Hall in his mind.

Coarse salt purification is simple.

This is easy to operate.

It will be a little more troublesome to refine the salt mine directly to produce refined salt later.

But for the current Ye Qinglai, he doesn't want to seize the share of the salt industry, and he won't compete with the Liu family in the crude salt market.

Small profits but quick turnover, he has no interest.

His business empire is not at that level either.

It takes a lot of manpower and material resources to set up sales channels in the early stage.

It's not worth it.

"I will occupy the refined salt market first and do high-end and high-value business. Boiling frogs in warm water is the long-term solution."

Back in Xiaoyao Mansion, Ye Qing immediately arranged for various tools and called Ou Yezi over.

"Ou Yezi will take you to learn something else today, let's see these chemical reactions!" Ye Qing asked Ou Yezi, who came over, to do a comprehensive reaction.

Purify the coarse salt.

Ou Yezi looked at the coarse salt piled up around him and said, "My lord, this is coarse salt, don't you mean to turn them into other things?"

"You'll know later, work, I'll pour in the contents of the box on your right hand!" Ye Qing didn't explain, but smiled mysteriously, and ordered.

Ou Yezi also knew Ye Qing's work habits.

So I didn't ask too much, looked more with my eyes, and did more with my hands.

Do some work.

Soon a miracle happened again.

The original coarse particles turned into snow-white fine particles, as white and delicate as snow.

"This is..." Ou Yezi didn't dare to make a conclusion, but his reason told him what it was.

So he is extra excited and excited about these two words.

Ye Qing reached out and grabbed a handful of fine salt and said: "Don't guess, just wipe it and you will know. Don't worry, the poison will not kill you."

Ye Qing picked up the fine salt, put it in his nose and smelled it, and a salty smell was faintly visible.

Looking at the masterpiece in his hand, he threw it into the stove beside him.

The flame in the furnace instantly became brighter and yellower, and the fireworks became more prosperous.

Ou Yezi's eyes lit up when he saw it.

Ye Qing mentioned this phenomenon, the main component of salt is a kind of sodium chloride, and the sodium ion will emit a yellow flame after heating.

So the fine snow-white particles are still salt.

Ou Yezi dipped his tongue into his mouth, then dipped it into the container, dipped it in salt, and then put it in his mouth.

"Ok!"

Sure enough, it was salt. Ou Yezi trembled all over and said excitedly, "My lord, this is salt, and it's edible. We're going to be prosperous!"

After glass, there is another baby who gets rich, can Ou Yezi not be excited?
