"Yes, the immense profits brought by salt will drive countless people to risk their lives smuggling it, it's simply impossible to eradicate, which is why the price of salt has always been unstable." Zhao Yao continued to analyze, "Every once in a while, the price of salt rises. If it weren't for the government's intervention, the price of salt would only continue to rise. In recent years, the salt merchants in Jiangnan have behaved, not daring to stir up trouble, but now the salt merchants in Qilu have started causing trouble again. The main reason for the instability of salt prices in recent years is that the salt merchants in Qilu have been continually raising the prices."
"Didn't the government crack down on the salt prices over there in Qilu?"
