Chapter 14 If he can jump up and hit her on the knee now, he wins!

The salt from all countries comes from Dongchu. Sea salt transportation is very expensive. There are not many salt wells in each country, and almost all of them are in the hands of the imperial court.

This salt is a luxury product, and the government uses it to control the lives of the people and obtain huge financial revenue.

Therefore, it is said that firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive, and there is a reason why they are expensive. Among them, salt is the most precious thing.

With prices rising steadily, the common people cannot afford to buy and eat. Do they have to try their best to get salt in order to survive?

But if you want to get salt from other ways, it's not lucky. The best and riskiest way is to buy illicit salt, but selling illicit salt is a serious crime, and you will be beheaded.

The fact that the imperial court controlled salt so seriously shows how powerful this thing is to a country.

Therefore, no one in Dongchu has dared to move for so many years, precisely because they have the upper hand.

This salt is something that everyone needs to eat. If you don't eat it for a long time, you will feel weak and faint. Moreover, there are only a few things for cooking, and the dishes are mostly boiled. If you don't even add salt, it won't be possible at all.

Hard to swallow.

Those people say that the reason why poor people eat chaffy vegetables is not having a good life is because they are reluctant to put in a mouthful of salt.

Therefore, the main reason why the imperial court took salt so seriously was to control people, especially the army.

If you want to control the army, just control the salt.

Naturally, the surrounding countries did not dare to raise troops with Dong Chu easily, because what they held in their hands was called their lifeblood.

So who would suddenly discover a salt mine and not be excited?

Apart from anything else, this unprecedented salt mine can even be recorded in the annals of history, and may even become the basis for a small country to turn around.

And why was she the one who discovered the salt mine?

Jin Yan was speechless and asked the sky, has this man watched too many bloody dramas and looked like a spy to everyone?

She couldn't explain, "Why am I specifically looking for salt mines? I don't have a GPS. How could I know that there are salt mines here before I get here?"

Although salt merchants are indeed extremely rich these days, selling illegal salt has always been a serious crime in the past dynasties, so she couldn't do it even if she wanted to.

What's more, she is not the kind of person who covets this kind of money.

Even if she wants money, she is very capable and smart, so there is nothing wrong with going out to do something secretive like this.

Who are you looking down on?

He seemed to be the master of everything, his smile was extremely sarcastic, "Didn't the people behind you tell you how extraordinary it is to own a salt mine?"

The atmosphere suddenly reached a climax, and the two of them faced off in tacit understanding for a while.

Jin Yan smiled mockingly, "You really judge a gentleman with a villain's heart. Let me just say that you have a brain disease. When you fell off the cliff, your brain hit the ground first, right? I discovered the salt mine. I don't know.

Hidden and farting loudly, I jumped up and down and everyone was happy to come back and tell you, give you a chance to question me here, are you sick or am I sick?"

"If I want to do something big with this thing, wouldn't the first thing I do is get rid of you as a hidden danger? I still keep you until now, provide you with good food and drink, and let you idle here until your ass hurts and speculate about me.

To kill time?”

Her words were unpleasant and extremely domineering, as if she deeply despised him.

Jiang Yan was unmoved. He felt that his guess was reasonable.

But listening to the words coming out of this woman's mouth, he suddenly felt that she must be the one now!

What the hell is this woman? She scolded him for having a brain problem in just a few words!

He even said that his idle butt hurt!

"Okay, if you say I am, then I am." She said pretending to be relaxed, but the smile in her eyes was extremely low, "But with your current broken body, what can you do to me? Just a few more

, and he is not my opponent."

Jiang Yan immediately became angry, his eyes were red, "Let me tell you! If you really cause war in several countries, I can't kill you today, but I will punish you in the future!"

The smile on Jin Yan's lips slowly faded, he took a deep breath, and was so angry that he threw a short knife at him, which happened to scratch his neck again, and shouted loudly, "Then you will die for my aunt today!"

There was another bloody slit on his neck, and it had always been like this every time. The look in front of Jiang Yan could be as funny as it was funny.

But he still had a lot of anger on his face, as if he had witnessed Jin Yan doing something bad.

I thought I treated him wholeheartedly. Although I was not kind to him, I had never done anything to feel sorry for anyone.

But she underestimated human nature. From a human perspective, he doesn’t listen to others and behaves inappropriately!

When the short knife grazed his neck, she did feel the murderous aura on his body.

No matter how strong the murderous intent is, it's useless. If he can jump up and hit her on the knee now, he wins!

She walked over impatiently, stepped on his side with one foot, and pulled out the short knife with one hand, "I'm really fed up with you. I've given you too much meat, haven't you? I'll give you this opportunity to question me here. You just know that there are

What can you do to the salt mine? Can you kill me first?"

Jiang Yan was knocked in place by her feet. Hearing her aggressive tone, she immediately clenched her fists.

He has been treated countless times in his life, plotted against, beaten up, and hunted down, but he has never been as aggrieved as he is today!

"you!"

"What are you doing? Shut up!"

His eyes were as wide as a wolf, as if he wanted to eat her in the next second.

He was cruel to her even harder, and for a moment neither of them gave in. Jiang Yan simply closed his eyes, and his chest was rising and falling due to emotion.

He was really angry. He was fed up with this feeling of being dependent on others and falling into the hands of others!

She looked at him disdainfully, "Why are you so angry? If I hadn't discovered this salt mine, would anyone in your vast country of Xihu have discovered it?"

"Who? You?"

The veins on Jiang Yan's neck popped out. He had obviously suffered a lot of humiliation, and blood was flowing from the wound on his neck. The scene was extremely dazzling.

"To put it bluntly, I'll give you another hundred years. Even if you stand in front of the salt mine, you won't be able to recognize it. Even if you know it, so what. If you can't extract it correctly, even if you are from Xihu country,

If you try it slowly, I can kill you all."

Jiang Yan frowned, feeling extremely uncomfortable for some reason.

She just puts a lot of pressure on her. She looks down on anyone, especially him now.

It was as if the height she was at was beyond the reach of all of them, no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't reach it.

He endured the weirdness and anger in his heart, opened his eyes and gritted his teeth and asked, "Why? That salt mine is poisonous?"

Jin Yan casually retracted her legs, and her face calmed down, "Aren't you so disgusted that I discovered the salt mine? Since you regard it as so important, you might as well study it yourself."

Jiang Yan looked at her with complicated eyes, "..."

He always felt that this woman was capable of making him angry to death, and he really felt like vomiting blood now.

If you have the ability, just tell him clearly!

Now that he doesn't have the ability to stand up and hit her on the knee, what do you want him to study?
