In the next few days, Yun Xingyao negotiated with the merchants, and Yun Yue became a hands-off manager. The salt matters were also handed over to Jiang Yao.

A few days later, the people found that the price of salt in the two salt shops in the city had dropped. It used to be 200 coins per catty, but now it only costs 50 coins per catty.

Someone kindly reminded the shopkeeper that the price was wrong.

The shopkeeper smiled and said that it was right. In the future, all the salt in the four counties of Chengnan Prefecture would be sold at this price. It was limited to Chengnan Prefecture. But for now, the purchase was temporarily limited. A family could only buy half a catty a month.

In an instant, the news exploded like water thrown into a frying pan.

Many people gathered in the store and asked in disbelief:

"Boss, is there something wrong with your salt? Why is it so cheap? Is it poisonous salt?"

"Yes, I heard that the court no longer approves salt for our Chengnan Prefecture. Where did you get this salt?"

"There must be something wrong, otherwise why would it be sold so cheaply?"

"Swindler!!!!"

The shopkeeper wanted to explain, but the crowd was too loud and completely drowned out his voice. Seeing the crowd gradually getting out of control, the patrol team led by Chu Ren hurried over.

The shopkeeper wiped the sweat off his head and said loudly, "Oh my! My God! What do you think of us? When has the Zhang family ever done such a thing as giving birth to a child without an anus? Yes, the court stopped the salt supply from Chengnan Prefecture, but have you forgotten the prefect? ​​This salt was personally delivered by Prince Rong!"

"Prince Rong?"

Chu Ren straightened his chest and took over the conversation: "Yes, Prince Rong has a large salt mine and salt lake in Liangzhou. After he learned about the court's actions, he specially sent someone to deliver salt to Master Yue!"

"Prince Rong! No wonder there's salt again! The only one who can challenge the court is Prince Rong!"

"Yes! The former crown prince's reputation for virtue and kindness is known to the world! It's true!"

“But why is it sold so cheaply?”

"Yes, the price difference is too big."

The shopkeeper was full of admiration and said, "It was our governor, Master Yue! He knew that it was not easy for the common people to have salt, so he said that he could not take care of the common people in other places for the time being, but he wanted to make sure that the common people in Chengnan Prefecture could afford salt! Master Yue also said that he would fulfill all his promises to the common people."

"Although it has only been a short time, you should have all seen what Master Yue did. He said he would refund the taxes, and he really did. Not only that, he also paid for those people to buy food and quilts. There is also three years of tax exemption."

"Not only that, do you know where the beggars and beggars we caught earlier went?"

"Where did you go?"

"Didn't they say he was killed?"

"Bah, that heartless person made up a rumor! Those beggars are also pitiful people. How could Master Yue do such a thing that would be condemned by God? Let me tell you, those beggars were placed in the old house of the former prefect. They were given clothes to wear and food to eat. They were also paid to build houses, 30 coins a day!"

"And those beggars are now in the old house of the Jiang family. We went to take a look a few days ago. You don't know that those beggars are now dressed better than you! If you don't believe me, you can go to these two places and see for yourself."

The crowd was so shocked that they were speechless. It turned out that Young Master Yue had done so many things silently!

"My God... Master Yue is really a Bodhisattva, right?"

Seeing that everyone finally believed him, the shopkeeper had the cloth covering the salt removed, revealing the snow-white salt.

"Is this... is this refined salt? Why is it so white?" The medicine they usually buy is yellow salt with impurities. But this salt is as white as snow.

"Boss, you must have taken the wrong salt. Although refined salt is much cheaper, we still can't afford it. We peasants can only eat coarse salt."

"Hahahahahahahahaha, this is not refined salt, this is coarse salt." He said and asked someone to bring refined salt.

Refined salt is whiter and has finer particles. The difference is obvious when you compare the two.

"This is refined salt. This refined salt contains...something that is good for the body. But it is expensive. As for the coarse salt, after Master Yue's improvement, it has become the same as the previous refined salt." The shopkeeper was really impressed. I don't know what's wrong with Master Yue's brain. Although he is a shopkeeper, he has never eaten refined salt because it is too expensive. But now the coarse salt is comparable to the previous refined salt. Everyone can afford it!

"Shopkeeper! I want to buy two kilograms of salt!"

"I want 4 jin! Anyway, 4 jin is the same price as jin before! I just bought some to send to my wife's family!"

"No, Master Yue said that each family can only buy half a catty of salt." The shopkeeper waved his hand quickly. "Don't worry, the next batch of salt will be the same price, but the quality will be better than this!"

"Better than this?"

People who originally wanted to buy more salt are no longer in a hurry.

.

Yunyue didn't know that everyone here had begun to trust and admire her.

Just after the Lantern Festival, Yunyue took Yuxi and Yunge, the genius doctor, to check out the shop.

If a doctor wants to improve his medical skills, the most important thing is to see different patients. So Yunyue plans to find a bigger shop for the two of them to run a clinic.

People on the street greeted them warmly when they saw them.

There was also a woman who boldly said, "Mr. Yue, do you need people to build a house in the north of the city? My husband, although not a beggar, is also a man, and can also build a house! You can treat him as a beggar and use him as a beggar!" The woman was so envious that her husband worked hard and earned less than 20 coins a day. The beggar had food and clothes, and he could get 30 coins for building a house! ! She wanted to drive the man out to the street to be a beggar.

Everyone was skeptical at first, but two days ago during the Lantern Festival, a one-armed man went to the restaurant for dinner.

Said to the waiter there: "I finally came into this restaurant to eat."

At this time, everyone knew that this man was originally a beggar. He was driven out by the waiter when he went to the restaurant to beg for food. Now he has been working on Yunyue's construction site for a few days and has been paid. The first thing he did was to come to this restaurant to eat, and he didn't order much. He just ordered one dish and asked the waiter to bring it to him personally.

The one-armed man said with red eyes: "I, Hu Wencheng, have been a beggar for so many years, and have never been treated as a human being. Only Master Yue not only treats us as human beings, but also gives us dignity. From now on, if I hear anyone say bad things about Master Yue, don't blame me for being rude!"

……

Yun Yue laughed and looked at the expectant eyes of the crowd: "Don't worry, I will post a notice in a few days and recruit more workers. You guys keep an eye on it." After all, she has planned to build many things, and the more people the better. This way, the people can also have an extra income, which is a win-win situation.

"Okay, okay! Thank you, Young Master Yue." Although Yun Yue is now the prefect, everyone still feels that calling him Young Master Yue is more intimate.

After everyone dispersed.

Yun Yue and the other two continued to look at the shop, which was previously owned by Prefect Lin. It had several prosperous shops connected together. There were also houses and warehouses in the backyard.

"How is it? Do you like it?" Yunyue asked Yu Xiyun.

"Not bad! The empty room at the back can be used as a ward, and the warehouse can be used to store medicinal materials." Doctor Ge was very excited. He didn't want to be bound before, so he practiced medicine everywhere. But now, he just wants to follow them. Learning medical skills is one aspect, but the most important thing is that he has no relatives, and he feels the warmth of home around these people.

Now, Yunyue and the others were like his descendants. He wanted to help them.

"Okay, let's connect these rooms and make a clinic for you.

"All connected? It can't be that big, right?"

"It's okay. I came to this shop for free anyway. You not only need to treat illnesses and save lives, but also teach apprentices. That's what I think."

"You can use this place for now. I will plan a special hospital for you later. I told you I will build you the largest hospital in the world."

Yu Xiyun knew the hospital Yunyue was talking about. Her beautiful eyes sparkled with anticipation: "Okay, I'll wait."

"Okay, it just so happens that I also want to take in a few apprentices. Young master, you will have grand disciples soon." Doctor Ge smiled while stroking his beard.

In the past, he thought of taking apprentices and letting fate take its course. But now, influenced by Yunyue, he also wants to teach apprentices and do something for the world. He wants to pass on his skills, so that there will be more doctors and fewer patients in the world.

"Okay! Then let's work together!"
