The First Family of Tang Dynasty

Popular recommendation:

"Brother Chubi, I have to admit that Jiang is still old and hot. This ability is really not blown out."

"Nonsense, this person is also a famous general of the Tang Dynasty, and he has nothing under his hands. How can he be so embarrassed to point us to the younger generation to take credit."

Cheng Chubi spit out angrily, but Li Ji left with a smug tune anyway.

This old guy is really hard to deal with, although he is not like his own father, he dares to grab it when he gets credit.

But this one is also a superb person who doesn't talk about martial arts.

Looking back, I will definitely find an excuse to jump to Dengzhou, and maybe do something again.

At that time, if you really do get results, do you, the younger generation, dare to deny the credit of this elder who doesn't care much?

After all, things like meritorious deeds are the most tempting treasures.

It is no wonder that in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the allusions such as two peaches killing three scholars can appear. With credit, who doesn't want to rub off?

That is to say, an outstanding meritorious leader like himself, who can bring everyone to the rain and the dew, will not care too much about this elder coming to rub.

"Brother Chubi, what you said just now that you went to Dengzhou is to help the local people get rid of poverty and become rich. Could it be that you already have a good plan, brother Chubi?"

Li Ke looked at Cheng Sanlang with bright eyes, Chubi brother's ability, if he dared to open his mouth, there must be a spectrum.

"Well, when it was determined that you were going to Qingzhou to serve as the Grand Governor, I had already started planning for my brother.

It's been a while since we got to now, but we'll have to wait until we get to Dengzhou to talk about the specific results..."

Hearing this, Li Ke, who couldn't wait to get away from the constraints and control of his elders, rolled his eyes.

"Brother Chubi, since it's such a big event for the country and the people, how can we wait any longer."

Cheng Chubi just took out a pair of bamboo cards from his arms. Hearing this, he almost crooked his mouth when he saw Li Ke's righteous expression.

You don't have to be in such a hurry, can you?

"Brother Chubi, what kind of expression do you have? I really want to do something for the people of Qingzhou."

"As a prince of the Tang Dynasty, how can you stay in Qingzhou, and go deep into the people to understand the people's feelings, solve problems for the people, and share the worries of the court."

"Understood, wise brother, squeeze the water out of your words, and then remove those artistically processed things.

It means that your kid wants to rush to Dengzhou waves right now. "

In the face of the old traitor, Chu Bi, who has insight into people's hearts, Li Ke smiled slyly, and then said very righteously.

"This is just a one-sided remark from Brother Chubi. I will definitely not admit it, brother."

Cheng Chubi rolled his eyes, too lazy to pay attention to this slut, and began to think about serious business. Who should take the credit for this?

Only two days have passed, and the large army has just entered the border of Shandong. All the noble and noble children, together with His Royal Highness Li Ke, the King of Qi, led the guards and rushed straight to the Dengzhou. .

And Li Ji, the chief history of the Qingzhou Grand Governor's Mansion in the Tang Dynasty, could only have a dark face, and was very unwilling to lead the large army to continue marching towards the Qingzhou Grand Governor's Office.

However, the disappearance of those gangsters and savage children made it easier for Li Ming to command this large army. After all, it is now his old man Li's word.

Shandong sea salt is well-known in Chinese history. The coastal area of ​​northern Shandong can be described as the earliest sea salt production area in my country, which is recorded as "Susha" in ancient documents.

It is the tribe that "boiled the sea for salt" on the coast of northern Shandong during the Yan and Huang Dynasties, and has been regarded as the ancestor of the salt-producing industry in all dynasties.

Cheng Chubi remembered a document he had read, saying that Shandong's salt production accounts for one-third of the country's total.

Among them, the output of sea salt produced in Shandong Weifang, Dongying, Binzhou and other coastal areas of northern Shandong accounted for more than 70% of the total output of sea salt in the country in later generations.

Look what a terrible number this is, calculated in terms of the number of people in the afterlife. That is to say, based on the sea salt production along the coast of Shandong alone.

It can fully satisfy the salt of the entire Tang Dynasty and even the entire Northeast Asia.

You must know that in this era, whether it was Goguryeo, Baekje, Silla in the north, or the Japanese country across the sea, a large amount of salt was imported from the Tang Dynasty.

Well, this is definitely not bullshit, but based on historical facts.

The Japanese country should not see that it is an island country facing the sea, and such a maritime country is generally not expensive and lacking in salt. But the Japanese country does not.

Because the temperate climate of Wa Island is relatively humid, coupled with geographical location and other factors, it is not conducive to the formation of sea salt.

Among the Japanese islands, only Kyushu Island produces salt, and the output is not very high. Therefore, Japan has always relied on salt imported from abroad.

Even in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, due to the prohibition of shipping in the land of China, the Japanese country even had to smuggle a large amount of salt.

Cheng Chubi remembered that in later generations, Japan was known as the world's largest importer of table salt.

In the years when the Japanese invaded the Central Plains, salt was also a resource that was plundered by the Japanese. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com

Most of the business between the Han and Tang firms and the Japanese country was their own newly developed exclusive business, and did not involve the original sea trade goods.

However, it did not prevent the Han and Tang firms from knowing what commodities were traded with the Japanese country and the three countries in the northern peninsula.

As for why Cheng Sanlang focused on getting rid of poverty and getting rich, the main reason is that the Qingzhou area originally belonged to the main salt-producing area.

In the past, during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Qi State benefited from the endless benefits of salt and became a powerful prince in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

Even in the Han Dynasty, or even before the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the salt production area of ​​the Jiaodong Peninsula was absolutely very important.

But there is a problem that the production cost of salt here is only slightly lower than that of well salt.

It is also necessary to extract brine, and then boil the sea for salt. What does the word boil mean? It means that we must first have fuel, prepare the stove, and prepare the utensils for boiling the brine.

But the sea salt in Shandong that Cheng Sanlang is familiar with is all drying salt. The so-called drying salt is not only much simpler than boiling salt.

More importantly, the cost of making salt is absolutely unbelievably lower than the cost of boiling salt.

You must know that there are many aristocratic families in Shandong. Is it just the fields that they rely on? Of course not, they still have a lot of salt fields and a lot of labor to boil and cook salt for them and get great benefits.

But these are all related to Cheng Saburo's nonsense. Those are the things that should be managed by the national government departments. Cheng Chubi fled to Dengzhou.

What I want to do is to improve the method of making salt. As for those places suitable for drying salt, hehehe...
