Villager of Daming

Chapter 91 Bargaining in half is the big deal (Part [-])
When Hanhan wanted to take a stroll, everyone accompanied him, and the head of the village followed Shi Si to the place where the salt was sold.

In a corner of the market, someone was selling salt. There was salt on the stall, and there was a scale next to it.

However, no one bought the salt at the booth. This is normal salt. After buying the salt and leading the salt, it will be sold.

Those who bought salt ran to the back and brought their own containers to pack it, and the salt sellers in the back secretly weighed the salt and gave some more.

Seeing the secretary coming, they all bowed their heads and stopped what they were doing. The common people were not in a hurry to buy and stood aside.

The city secretary whispered to the head of the village: "They pay a tax of thirty one, and the bitter salt they sell has no salt guide. Buy a salt guide that can sell salt here, and go to the place where the salt is produced to get the salt lead. a guise."

Zhu Wentian heard it and understood that the salt production land of the family had not been marked by the imperial court, and merchants could not get the salt here.

Merchants have to support the border, send things, get salt, come back to receive salt at the designated salt field, and then sell salt at the designated place.

When selling salt, the tax is thirty one, and the profit is very high. You can get two hundred catties of salt for one stone of rice. Some places are close, and you need five stones of rice. In the current period.

According to the place where the salt is sold and the salt, the price of salt is different, and the profit is basically more than doubled. Otherwise, why are the merchants so hard?

Bitter salt, no salt, buy one, pretend, secretly ship, the key is to pay taxes.

The well salt is brine and boiled dry to become salt grains. It is expensive to cook sea salt at the seaside, but it is different in Pingdingshan, Henan, where coal is produced.

There is no need to put yellow mud in the brine of well salt, and it will be burned directly.

It's just a mistake, Zhu Wentian went to taste a few grains, it contained sodium chloride, was bitter, and contained magnesium sulfate.

The other party was terrified, why are there so many officials?Everyone has a tacit understanding!
We pay taxes, you don't care whether we have salt from the place of origin.Do you want to go back on your word?

Zhu Wentian looked at the head of the village, and the head of the village understood again. His understanding is now beyond heaven.

It is estimated that in dreams, he is thinking about what Hanhan's eyes and slight movements mean.

"Hanhan, don't put things in your mouth casually, come with me, wash your mouth, hurry up!" The chief of staff pulled Hanhan away.

Elsewhere, the two stopped, and Zhu Wentian said, "Let them take them to Xiaqiu Village by boat. We don't have enough cars, so tell them that as long as they have any in the future, we will send them directly to Xiaqiu Village.

It must be this kind, if it is not so salty, it would be better, we don't want all the salt, and we don't sell salt, so we can't finish it by ourselves.

After a while, I will go to pick it up, and you can show it to them. It should be magnesium sulfate heptahydrate as much as possible, and the cleaner the better.

They are responsible for transporting a penny and two catties. There is no limit to the quantity, as long as they have it, they will accept it all. "

Zhu Wentian had considered the other party's production cost. The other party only needed to upgrade the equipment, and the big iron pot for cooking salt and brine would be very efficient.

Others dare not buy it like this and help the seller back up. Xiaqiu Village can do it. This thing is not bought as human edible salt at all.

It belongs to feed additives for livestock and poultry, medicinal materials for humans, and fertilizers for plants, and has nothing to do with salt.

"They won't lose money?" The village chief cared about the other party.

"Brine is pumped casually, coal is used casually, and there is no yellow mud water for filtration. One person can burn a lot of salt a day, and they will make a lot of money in the early stage."

Zhu Wentian shook his head, if Xiaqiu Village was in that place, everyone would get rich without selling rock candy and soap.

"Okay, okay, as long as you can make money, hehehehe!" The chief was relieved, and felt that the sense of ritual was missing, so he made up for it.

"Hey hey hey!" Zhu Wentian also found it uncomfortable.

The chief patted Hanhan's head, took Hanhan's hand and went back.

Zhu Wentian picked out a pile of large grains of salt and held it in his hand: "Okay, look! Mmm! Hehehehe!"

The head of the village stepped forward, took the things in Hanhan's hand, and said to the person waiting to be judged: "Try to be like this, my village is Xiaqiu Village, and you can know it by asking around.

One penny and two catties, as much as you have, you can transport it all to the village. There is a river next to the village, and you can transport it by boat.

I pay a deposit, put it in the county government, fifty guan, write a deed, and press my fingerprints. I have the seal of the head of the village. "

Several people on the other side were dumbfounded. They were very angry when they first heard that one penny and two catties, and then they heard how much they wanted, and immediately changed their mentality to joy.

How much is the full charge?My own village can get rich, not to mention one penny and two catties, three catties is fine.

Just as their leader was about to agree, he suddenly remembered something important and looked up at the county officials.

When the county magistrate was waiting just now, he thought about having another meal of mutton soup at noon.

At this moment, he was slightly taken aback: "Yichang, why does your village buy so much salt?"

"It's not salt. My village buys feed for livestock and poultry and feeds them.

In the prevention and treatment prescription I gave last time, it was written to feed some things.

When livestock and poultry find that they are growing slowly, they may lack such a thing, not salt, but bitter salt. "

The head of the village firmly refused to admit to buying salt, and the actual situation was the same. How to use it, I went back to the village and asked Hanhan.

The county magistrate nodded again and again: "Yes, it's not salt, it's bitter salt, and bitter salt is not salt. The county guarantees it, and no deposit is required. You can buy what you need with the remaining money."

Salt sellers are still confused, what village would let a county magistrate guarantee it in the name of the yamen?

He took a deep breath: "Send it now? We brought a lot and sent it all to you. There is a boat, and we rented it."

"I haven't bought it yet, you sell me first." The people waiting to buy it refused.

"You buy this, this is cheap, we have to go." The salt seller shouted, pointing to the normal salt with formalities.

"Can't afford it." The people shook their heads.

"Evaluate your three pennies per catty, and you can buy two catties at most, and five catties for two catties!"

The salt seller just wants to give his bitter salt to the village quickly, and let everyone continue to smoke the marinade and dry it up when they go back.

He used two hundred catties of salt as a cover at his stall, and left as soon as they were sold out.

This time I took the risk and transported three boats of salt, each with fifty shi, and one stone weighed four hundred catties.

Excluding the ones sold before, there are still more than 5 catties and more than 5000 texts.

Earn the money quickly and go back to continue cooking. This year, the village said that there will be no corvees.

How much salt can be cooked at home after going outside for a month?How much food do you sell for?To food, to the court.

"Can I buy four catties?" The people who objected just now wanted to buy more.

The people behind did not agree: "Why don't you say you bought them all, or do you want to buy them? If you don't buy them, I'll come and weigh you two catties."

"No, I came first, two catties is two catties." The man squeezed the people who wanted to come up.

"It's not busy, we have to go shopping for other things, and we'll drink mutton soup here at noon, everyone, please."

Seeing that the other party was sweating anxiously, the chief wanted to leave immediately, but that would not work, he invited the officials to dinner!
In a short time, two hundred catties of normal salt were sold out, and the leader who sold the salt had to pay taxes for the money.

The county magistrate waved his hands: "Let's count together later, the stall has been withdrawn, and we will go to drink mutton soup later."

He despises the little tax money, [-] yuan for [-] yuan, less than [-] yuan, the kind that can't afford pepper noodles when drinking mutton soup.
