Chapter 97 Go to Linhai to find a salt merchant
The relationship between Nanque and Hansang was tense, but Hansang's envoy refused to give in at all.

For a subordinate country to be so arrogant now, it's all a habit. Do Han Sang really think that Nanque can't survive without their salt wells?

After the Hansang messenger left angrily, the screen was removed.

The emperor's frown immediately relaxed when he saw Jin Yunzhi. He tried his best to smile and comforted Jin Yunzhi, "Don't worry, Zhizhi. Father has a way to solve it."

Jin Yunzhi knew that her father didn't want her to feel guilty, so he deliberately comforted her.

The salt merchants in Nanque have stocks in their hands, but these stocks will not last long. In the end, once the supply exceeds demand, panic will occur in Nanque.

Jin Yunzhi narrowed her eyes and pondered for a moment, "Father, Hansang is not the only country near the sea. We don't have to limit our attention to Hansang."

"The harder we try to keep Han Sang, the more we will make them feel that we must be theirs."

Jin Yun knew what he had said, "My son is willing to share my father's worries and take the initiative to go to the countries near the sea to find salt merchants. Although selling private salt is expressly prohibited, merchants will go wherever there is an opportunity to make money."

Speaking of this, Jin Yunzhi's eyes lit up slightly, "As long as we can survive a year, let Hansang know that without their Hansang's salt, our Nanque will still be safe and sound, but their Hansang does not have Nanque's." The military protection will face the end of being torn apart. When the time comes, they will regret it and pray to Nanque to continue sending troops to protect it."

"We are mutually beneficial to Nanque. Hansang is still a small subordinate country. If it submits to other big countries, it will just be a fiefdom. They will definitely know how to choose when the time comes."

What Jin Yunzhi said was indeed correct, but how difficult it was to find salt merchants in other countries to supply Nanque?
The emperor glanced at Jin Yunzhi with complicated eyes, feeling touched and happy.

His daughter has really grown up and become more stable, but this is easy to say but quite difficult to do.

I'm afraid...

The emperor was thinking secretly in his heart when Jin Yunzhi opened his lips and said, "If the father trusts his son, he will leave this matter to his son."

"You?" The emperor was suddenly startled and looked at Jin Yunzhi in disbelief.

This is no child's play. Finding salt merchants involves the very foundation of the country. Even if those merchants are really profit-seeking, they would not dare to join forces with the enemy to commit crimes.

But Jin Yunzhi said, should she do it?

"According to my understanding, although various countries have clear regulations that prohibit the private sale of salt, in fact, it is very common for private salt to circulate among several big countries. As long as it can make a profit, people are greedy and it is impossible to let it go to make money. The opportunity is not needed, and Nanque buys salt from Hansang every year, which is a large sum of money. Who does this money come from to buy salt?"

Hearing Jin Yunzhi speak so eloquently, the emperor was a little stunned.

When did his daughter know so much?

In his eyes, Jin Yunzhi was still the ignorant little girl, but now she could calmly analyze the pros and cons with him.

"Father, I am willing to go to the coastal area, contact the salt merchants, and resolve this matter."

The emperor stared at Jin Yunzhi with emotion, "You grew up in a noble family, how could you go to such a dangerous place alone?"

He was absolutely worried about Jin Yunzhi going alone.

"If you insist on going, let your eldest brother come with you."
