The Golden County Magistrate

"And there are a lot of Zhuzhe growing in various places in the south."

He Jinyao added another sentence, fearing that Tang Yun did not understand what he meant.

Originally, He Jinyao was still worried about the raw materials for making white sugar.

Now it's good, there is no need to worry at all.

There are a lot of wild Zhuzhe in the south of Da Zhou, and they can't be used up in a short time.

Chen Yan nodded slightly. He had already investigated the production of Zhuzhe.

It can be said that there is no need to worry about the lack of Zhuzhe for at least a few years.

Thinking of this, Chen Yan said again: "Sugarcane can also be planted, but in the current situation of Da Zhou, it is probably impossible to plant sugarcane. But there is no need to worry. There are plenty of wild sugarcane, which will definitely be enough in the short term. All we need to bear is the transportation cost."

"Good, very good!"

Tang Yun couldn't help but admire it when he heard it.

Chen Yan smiled and said, "How about it? It's not a loss to do business with us, right?"

Tang Yun chuckled and asked, "Since there is such a profitable business, why doesn't County Magistrate Chen do it himself? Why do you have to find someone to cooperate with?"

Chen Yan looked helpless and said, "Selling things is too troublesome. If someone helps to sell, I can stay in Qingshan County and count money every day. How comfortable it is."

Tang Yun curled her lips.

Afraid of trouble? It's just laziness.

Being lazy and greedy for money, this guy is simply a whole body of problems.

After returning, I should ask Yu Du how Chen Yan passed the imperial examination and became a county magistrate.

As for the signing of the contract, it is much simpler.

Chen Yan is a county magistrate, which is an official identity. Most businessmen will not play tricks with officials, let alone deceive them.

As for Tang Yun and He Jinyao, because Chen Yan is an official appointed by the court, they dare not deceive them.

So, the two parties signed the contract quickly.

Of course, the contract is still signed in the name of Zhou's Chamber of Commerce.

Neither Tang Yun nor He Jinyao revealed their true identities.

After the contract was signed, He Jinyao directly asked his men to hand over 30,000 taels of silver to Chen Yan.

Chen Yan did not think much about it, but felt that the other party was really straightforward. After asking a few questions, he directly signed the contract. After the contract was signed, he directly gave the money.

If all the merchants in Da Zhou were so straightforward, how great would it be?

"According to the contract, you two should also set up shops selling white sugar in various parts of Da Zhou as soon as possible. There should be no problem, right?" Chen Yan asked.

He Jinyao nodded, "Don't worry, Lord Chen. Zhou's Chamber of Commerce has shops in various parts of Da Zhou. There are also some in countries outside Da Zhou."

Chen Yan was overjoyed, "There are shops abroad? I didn't expect it to be a multinational company. I'm sorry. Since that's the case, let's cooperate more in the future."

He had a lot of good things in his mind. It was not a big problem to get them out, but Chen Yan didn't want to sell them himself.

Zhou's Chamber of Commerce looks good, and has stores abroad. It must be a big business, and it is probably more powerful than Tian's in Beijing.

Therefore, he began to think about cooperating more in the future.

"Okay, okay!" He Jinyao replied, still thinking about the salt.

That day, he learned from Tang Yun that Chen Yan could not only make sugar, but also extract salt from some abandoned salt fields. After returning, He Jinyao looked up the history of Qingshan County.

Only then did he know that Qingshan County moved its residents here and became a county town because there were many salt fields around Qingshan County.

Now it is dilapidated and no one has paid attention to it for decades, which is also because the salt fields a hundred years ago have stopped mining and nothing can be mined.

He even asked the people of the Salt and Iron Bureau about this.

Thinking of this in his heart, He Jinyao asked tentatively: "Speaking of cooperation, I wonder if County Magistrate Chen has other businesses?"

Tang Yun, who was sitting aside and silent at first, also looked at Chen Yan.

Compared to sugar, Tang Yun is more interested in salt.

Sugar is not a necessity, it can only be regarded as a luxury in the Great Zhou.

But salt is different, it is a necessity, if you want to live healthily, you must eat it.

And the Great Zhou is in short supply of salt, and searching for salt fields everywhere is almost a must for every emperor in the Great Zhou.

If Chen Yan has a method of mining salt and can extract salt from abandoned salt fields, it will be of great significance to the entire Great Zhou.

"There is no business to do for the time being." Chen Yan replied.

He really didn't perfunctorily answer He Jinyao.

In fact, since hearing that Zhou's Chamber of Commerce has stores all over the country, not just local merchants in one place, Chen Yan has come up with the idea of ​​long-term cooperation with it, and naturally he will not hide anything.

At present, the cosmetics business and tea in various places have been contracted to local merchants in various parts of the Great Zhou.

Therefore, there is really no other business to do at present.

"We Zhou's Chamber of CommerceIt is not comparable to some small businesses. Some of the businesses banned by the court can also be handled by Zhou Chamber of Commerce. "Tang Yun thought for a long time and spoke lightly, hoping that Chen Yan could understand what she meant.

Chen Yan was stunned and shook his head and said: "I don't doubt the strength of Zhou Chamber of Commerce. If Qingshan County has other businesses in the future, it must first consider cooperating with Zhou Chamber of Commerce. However, there is really no other business in Qingshan at the moment. "

Tang Yun wanted to curse.

After such guidance, this guy still pretended to be confused?

Does it mean that I have to ask about the salt matter?

But if I can ask, why do I have to go through so much trouble?

Once I ask about this matter, I am afraid Chen Yan will be alert.

Subconsciously, I looked at He Jinyao, and asked He Jinyao to think of a way.

He Jinyao received Tang Yun's eyes and looked bitter.

He had no choice, after all, it was illegal.

After thinking for a while, He Jinyao suddenly came up with a plan and said, "Look at this time, it's noon, right?"

Chen Yan looked surprised and didn't understand what he meant.

But when he saw He Jinyao patting his belly lightly, he understood instantly, "You have come from afar. Since we have finished talking about business, why don't you have a few drinks in the backyard of the county government, my residence, at noon? It can also be regarded as a wish for our future cooperation to be smooth. "

Said this, but Chen Yan was not very happy in his heart.

You got a business deal that will obviously make a lot of money from me, but you don't take the initiative to show your appreciation and ask me to treat you to a meal?

Which of the businessmen who cooperated with me in the past didn't take the initiative to treat me to a meal?

They are so stingy!
