"How interesting, truly interesting, a monk amassed a fortune of tens of millions by simply monopolizing the salt supply!"
The Emperor Jingtai seated on the throne seemed to be extremely enraged, his neck slightly bulging with anger, sneering incessantly: "To what extent have they ruined the Kaizhong Law of the Court?"
Minister of War Yu Jie took on a solemn expression, "Your Majesty, I can stake my life on it, three years after Jingtai, all the granaries at the northern border will be full."
"I know." Emperor Jingtai slightly nodded his head. What Yu Jie said had been validated. Previously, during the war with Meng Wu, the Court never worried about the food and grass for Datong and Xuanfu areas.
Even when Xuanfu City was severed from Beijing, the food and grass in the city were still enough to support over 400,000 troops under Yu Jie for several months.
