Chapter 34
"Brother Ziyan, you don't know how to make a living?" Ren Zhao looked at Chu Nan. Although he knew that Chu Nan came to them today, it was not as simple as having a meal, but as far as he knew, although Chu Nan is now a Jin Cao, But he has no real power, and he is not easy to dismantle the situation in front of everyone, but he doesn't really believe that Chu Nan can bring them any good livelihood.

"Salt!" Chu Nan looked at Ren Zhao, without any nonsense, and said bluntly, "I wonder if you are interested?"

"Salt?" Not only Ren Zhao, everyone seemed to have not expected this answer, and they were a little dazed when they heard this.

Salt is a good deal. Like food, it is an indispensable thing in people's life, but the profit is much higher than that of food. Generally, unless there is a natural or man-made disaster, the price of food is very stable, and the profit will not be too much, but salt The difference is that salt cannot be produced in many places, so it must be purchased from outside, but the cost of salt is not high.

Many people can't help but think of Chu Nan's current position as Jincao. Could it be that they want to take advantage of the position to make a profit?But there is no need to find so many people, right?

Even if Chu Nan's status is inconvenient to do it directly, it's perfectly fine to find one or two. Is it necessary to find everyone?After this point, how much can each family get?
When everyone is worrying about the profit, there are too many people, but the profit is thin, but Ren Zhao is keenly aware of the crux of the problem, looking at Chu Nan and saying: "Brother Ziyan, with all due respect, this Xuzhou Salt Industry Like cloth and grain, almost all of them are in the hands of the powerful clans, how can we fight against them? Besides, although brother Ziyan is now a golden cao, there are not many salts at hand, right?"

Only then did the others come to their senses, and they were too busy calculating their gains and losses. The most important question was, did Chu Nan have any salt in his hands?

Not only not many, not at all!

"What I'm talking about is not private salt, but official salt!" Chu Nan shook his head and said, "Marquis Wen is now planning to open salt farms in various places to sell official salt. I invite you here today because I want to I would like to ask everyone, if you are willing to do this official salt business, I have already obtained a promise from Marquis Wen, as long as the salt sold by the salt farms run by you, the owner of the salt farms can share [-]%. You are in charge of selling the salt, what do you think?"

"Official salt?" Everyone was stunned, and looked at Chu Nan uncertainly. The expression of Xiangcong Chunan confirmed the authenticity of this matter. How short of money is Lu Bu?Have you put your mind on selling salt?
"That's right." Chu Nan nodded and said, "Everyone can rest assured that the supply of salt will be sufficient, and the selling price is [-]% lower than that of private salt, so the business will definitely not be too bad. I've calculated that as long as it's a good business, it's much better than earning some hard money in our daily life."

"Brother Ziyan." One of them stood up, looked at Chu Nan and asked cautiously: "This matter is not as simple as money. If I wait to help Marquis Wen, will I offend the big families?"

The salt business in Xuzhou is basically controlled by the big families. Now they suddenly jumped out to grab the business. Can those big families agree?

Xue Nian just wanted to open his own cloth shop, but he was suppressed everywhere. Now Chu Nan is blatantly grabbing a deal with others, can he agree?
"This is a matter of the government office. You only need to focus on sales. The government office will handle other matters." Chu Nan said with a smile. Regardless of how much Lu Bu is not liked, the government office still has to listen to Lu Bu. They can use various means Suppress ordinary merchants, but you can't use this method to suppress official salt, right?
If someone really did this, then Lu Bu would have nothing to say to them.

"Brother Ziyan!" The five baht money in Tian Yang's hand suddenly stopped, he looked at Chu Nan and asked, "I have a question."

"Brother Tian, ​​please tell me." Chu Nan nodded.

"Now that Marquis Wen is here, we can do this for ourselves, but if... what I mean is that if one day Marquis Wen goes to another place, what should we do?" Tian Yang looked at Chu Nan and asked seriously.

This is a very real problem. With Lu Bu here, the official salt business can naturally be done. After all, with the government office as the backstage, most of the methods used to suppress them in the past are useless. But to be honest, Lu Bu's reputation is not very good. It's not certain whether he can stay in Xuzhou. If one day Lu Bu is defeated and Xuzhou is captured, Lu Bu pats his ass and leaves, but they will face the wrath of the gentry.

"In addition to the business, you don't have to worry about other things. I am waiting for this matter. In fact, I am employed by the Marquis Wen, just like a tenant. Therefore, other things are in the hands of the government office, including people making troubles and asking for help. Account and so on, even on the day Brother Tian said, we will only sell for others, and on that day, whether this salt farm will be closed or swallowed by others has nothing to do with us." After finishing speaking, Chu Nan looked at the crowd and said : "Everyone, I know that you have scruples in your hearts, but I have something to say today, and I can't say it quickly."

"Brother Ziyan, it's okay to say." Tian Yang looked at Chu Nan and smiled.

"We all come from lowly backgrounds." Chu Nan sighed, with a touch of helplessness in his words: "In this troubled world, aristocratic and powerful families will choose the Ming Lord to serve, but we...have the qualifications to choose the Ming Lord? ?”

Everyone was silent when they heard the words, they encountered obstacles everywhere when they wanted to open a cloth shop, and they chose the master to serve?The reasoning is correct, but which enlightened master would look at them more?
In order to become an official, Chu Nan almost gave away all his family's wealth, but he couldn't even meet the Ming Lord. For a while, he suddenly felt an indescribable depression in his heart.

"There has never been real justice in this world. For aristocratic families, they have too many opportunities. They can choose a master to serve them. However, for us, opportunities are too few. If you miss this Opportunity, maybe in this life, it is unlikely that other princes are willing to wait with me!"

Having said that, Chu Nan paused, looked at the faces of everyone, shook his head and said: "Waiting for a price, it will never fall on my head, you and I have some kindness in the past, so this time When I got this opportunity, the first thing I thought of was to share it with you, of course, everyone has their own ambitions, and I understand your concerns, if you don’t want to, I won’t embarrass you.”

What Chu Nan said was very sincere, and he also understood that there must be risks, but at least it is an opportunity, and with their background, there are not many such opportunities in a lifetime. Impossible to wait until next time.

Xuzhou's gentry tyrants have basically been finalized now. For those who want to climb up, they are very strict. Lu Bu may not be a wise master, but he can provide these people with a chance to rise up. If you grasp it, you may get a chance in the future More, but bad luck may follow.

"I'll listen to brother Ziyan." The brief silence was broken by Xue Nian's voice...
