Reborn Regent of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 110 Huge Benefits

June 11th, [-]th year of Chongzhen, Ming Dynasty

Since the first salt pond in early May, that is, the salt pond in Zhangjiabao, the four salt ponds in Lingshan and Fushan have been built one after another. , After all the salt ponds were built, Zhong Xian led his people to make a total calculation. All five salt ponds cost more than 7000 taels of silver, 310 seven people, and a monthly maintenance cost of over 20 taels of silver. The monthly salt output of the five salt ponds is maintained at around 25 jin to [-] jin. www>

In other words, there is a slight difference between the annual output and Zhang Shouren's estimate of 300 million catties. Basically, this figure can fully meet the needs of all cooperative firms in Jiaodong, including Li & Fung.

After hearing the news, apart from Li & Fung Bank which put [-] silver here as an order money, Miyoshi Bank, Hefeng Bank, and Lefeng Bank, several commercial firms in Laizhou and Qingzhou came here after hearing the news, and several of them were The proprietors came directly, including the proprietor Qin of Lifeng, around the middle of May, the proprietors of these commercial firms gathered in the small military fortress of Fushan, as long as they came, they were not empty-handed, more or less Few put down the money that their own firms can move before leaving. [

Qin Dongzhu's Lifengxing released [-] yuan first, and when the landlord came, he put down another [-] yuan.

As a medium-sized firm with a net worth of less than one million, this time it can be regarded as a big investment, and it is going to be a big bet.

The rest of the commercial firms also tried their best, ranging from 13 to 30 taels. Adding Li & Fung's [-], in just half a month, Zhang Shouren got more than [-] taels of silver!

This number shocked all of Zhang Shouren's subordinates including Lin Wenyuan and Zhong Xian to somersaults!

The money can only be regarded as order silver, 300 million catties, 150 million shi. According to Zhang Shouren's plan, his bids will all be one tael or five taels. After all, some places are close to the sea, so the price of salt is lower, and some places are far away from the sea, so it can be slightly higher, but the total price is not allowed to exceed three taels... Zhang Shouren wants to get rich, but he doesn't want to scare the people away .

No matter how good the salt is, if the price exceeds the acceptable price of the common people, it will definitely be eliminated by the market.There are fewer private salt dealers now because the official salt that Zhang Shouren holds is cheaper and of better quality. If the price is high, a few hundred soldiers, or even tens of thousands of soldiers, can cover thousands of miles of coastline and all All the village trails are under control?

That is absolutely impossible. If you want to completely control private salt, you need to use high-quality and cheap official salt to truly control the market. Only by using market means can you truly control the party!

Even if it is limited to three or two, these big trading houses can still make a lot of money. As for Zhang Shouren himself, the cost of bidding one, two, five is very small, and the net profit of more than one million a year is also within his fingertips!

If it can hit the market in other provinces again, the salt profit will be unimaginable!

In fact, the benefit of salt and iron has always been the biggest profit. From the pre-Qin period to the Han and Wu dynasties, and then to Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, there is really no one who did not control the benefit of salt and iron.

Like the Song Dynasty, even the wine sold in restaurants was government-run, not to mention salt and iron for profit!
