King Luhuang of the Ming Dynasty: My father, Ming Taizu

Chapter 82 shocked the whole audience! Excellent salt!
  Only then did he finally realize.

In this world, there are actually many people who are much better than his uncle.
  Take for example the Prince Lu in front of you.
  Hearing that he might implicate his uncle, Xu Jin's face turned as white as a sheet of paper!

That's the backbone of the family.
  If something really goes wrong, I won’t be able to live anymore!
  The merchants around looked at Xu Jin with indifference on their faces.

The Xu family is finished!

Xu Jin, this idiot, doesn’t even know what a prince means in the Ming Dynasty!
  That is a super-quality existence!

Don't say that your uncle is just a third-rank minister of the Ministry of Industry. Even if he is the minister of the Ministry of Industry, he is also a duke and marquis. When he sees the prince in front of him, he must salute and say hello!

If you repeatedly mention your pitiful background in front of him, aren't you looking for death?

Seeing that Xu Jin was about to be dragged down.

Xu Jin suddenly said loudly: "Your Highness! I want to know what the punishment is for killing the chicken to retrieve the eggs! Why are they all looking at me like this?"

Yin Shao snorted.

He angrily shouted: "Kill your chicken and take your eggs! Stop asking! Drag us down quickly!"

The words fell.

Xu Jin suddenly burst out into a scream of panic!

"I am the sole heir of the third generation of the Xu family! Your Highness, have mercy on me! Have mercy on me."

Zhu Tan snorted.

"Where did the third-generation uncle come from? You idiot, you can't even tell a lie!"

Zhu Tan looked at Wu Waner and asked, "What about you? Miss Wu? What are you doing here today?"

Your Highness called me Miss Wu again!
  After hearing the question, Wu Waner even felt a little happy in a daze!
  That day, His Highness also called me the same name!
  My mind was confused for a while.

Wu Waner said shyly: "Minmin girl is here to participate in the investment conference!"

at this time.

Wu Waner's wonderful eyes were flowing, and her beauty was so beautiful that even Zhu Tan couldn't bear it.

"Since you are here to attend the meeting, let's go down first!"

Zhu Tan waved his hand.

I am not a Neo-Confucian scholar.

Zhu Tan didn't bother to pay attention to women's public appearances.

Of course, he won't encourage or support it.

If Wu Waner is willing to come to the meeting, then go ahead!

After all, the Wu family is still the largest grain merchant in Yanzhou Prefecture and even in Shandong, and it still has strength.

Wu Waner just returned to her seat.

Crash-!
  A large area suddenly became vacant!
  Even though Wu Waner looked dazzling in men's clothes, no one dared to come even close!

no way.

Killing the goose to retrieve the eggs is indeed too powerful a deterrent.

at this time.

Because of what was done to Xu Jin just now.

This made everyone more aware.

The young man standing in front of me is a feudal king!
  The feudal king who can kill and take away ordinary people!
  What about the Xu family?
  So what if the Minister of Industry is working as a backstage person?

It was handled as it was told!

For a while.

Everyone looked at Zhu Tan with awe in their eyes, not daring to act presumptuously.

Zhu Tan smiled at the crowd and said, "I have summoned you all today to discuss cooperation in the Changlu Salt Field!

You must have heard that Changlu Salt Field is now under my management!

I plan to not only manage the salt farm, but also the sales!

You are all well-known businessmen in Shandong, but I have heard that most of the salt in Shandong is sold by Shanxi merchants!

Not to mention that we Shandong businessmen went out to compete with them, we were defeated locally!
  Are you willing to have a lot of money taken away by Shanxi merchants? "

Everyone was smiling.

A small salt merchant in Yanzhou Prefecture said: "Your Highness, the Shanxi merchants are close to Jiubian. In recent years, wars have been the most frequent on Jiubian. They are closer to the water and first to the moon. Every time they transport grain and grass to the front, they can produce a lot of salt!"
  We are all outsiders, so the cost is not worth it!
  The imperial court didn't use many troops in the Northeast. What's more, even if it did use troops, it would be the people from the Peking Capital Command who took advantage!
  However, from the ordinary people's perspective, the salt merchants in the Peking Capital Command and Envoy Department are basically Shanxi merchants!

Alas. The advantage given to them by opening the Chinese method is too great! "

Zhu Tan nodded and said with a smile: "Shanxi merchants are now reclaiming a lot of wasteland in Jiubian! Their food can be transported to the front line nearby! In addition, they have been immersed in this industry for a long time, so it is not difficult to understand that they have such an advantage!" Facts superior.

The key lies in Shiohiki!
  For ordinary merchants to transport grain to the front line, even if they take salt and lead, it is not worth it once the cost is calculated.

Shanxi merchants have always had the talent of war mongers for hundreds of years.

Others lose money, but they make money!
  This is also the reason why they can take a big advantage in opening the Chinese method.

Not to mention Jiubian, even the well salt industry in Sichuan now has a large number of Shanxi merchants involved.

Great profit.

Zhu Tan looked at everyone and asked with a smile: "Besides Yan Yin's advantage, do Shanxi merchants have other advantages?"

Everyone thought for a while.

Another person said: "Sales channels are also a problem! Shanxi merchants now occupy 89% of the world's salt sales! Of course, this can only be regarded as the status quo. If we can obtain salt at a lower cost, sales will not be a problem! Nothing more than It’s just about opening a store!”

Zhu Tan nodded.

Then he said to the guards around him: "Take the salt from this king's place!"

soon.

Each of the hundreds of businessmen present received a small packet of salt.

Wu Waner also got a share.

She opened the small cloth bag.

Suddenly he was stunned.

Couldn't help but cry out in surprise.

"Is this salt? Why does it look so good?"

The Wu family is a wealthy family in Shandong.

In fact, practical refined salt is also excellent.

However, it cannot be as good as the salt Zhu Tan gave her.

As white as snow, as fine as sand, with almost no impurities!

There have long been rash people who couldn't help but twist the salt in their hands, put it on the tip of their tongue and taste it.

Suddenly I was even more shocked!

"This salt! It tastes so pure! It doesn't have any evil or bitter taste! This... this costs a few taels of silver per pound!"

Everyone looked at Zhu Tan with shock on their faces!
  "I have long heard that the quality of the salt from Changlu Salt Farm is excellent and the best in the world, but I never expected that it can be as good as this!"

"The refined salt I bought in my house has been steamed and sieved repeatedly. It costs 3 taels of silver per catty, but it is not so pure."

"We often eat salt from Changlu Salt Farm, but it's not of this quality! Is this newly made?"

"Only rich people can afford such salt. It's probably as good as gold!"

Zhu Tan listened to everyone's discussion and smiled slightly.

"Everyone! How is the quality of this salt?"

Someone has long said: "The quality is excellent!"

"Number one in the world!"

"Hard to find in the world!"

"I've been suffering from Yang hypertension (hypertension) for several years. My doctor has always told me to eat less salt. But if I eat this salt, I'm willing to die!"

Zhu Tan was stunned.

Good guy, this is the best compliment for Changlu Saltworks.
  Seeing the discussion among many businessmen becoming more and more heated.

Zhu Tan is also full of confidence!

in fact.

He was not surprised at all when such a scene occurred.

After all, the quality of the salt produced by Changlu Salt Farm is indeed a dimensionality reduction blow to other salt farms!

Not only is the quality excellent, the output is equally terrifying, but the cost is also extremely low!
  A businessman had already asked impatiently: "Your Highness! I want to know what conditions are needed to cooperate with Changlu Saltworks?"

　I recommend the new book "The Ming Dynasty: The house was ransacked at the beginning, and the ancestral hall was burned down" by my good brother.
