According to Li Xiang's original plan, the best salt is five hundred coins per pound. If the price of the highest quality salt is suppressed on the market, the following qualities will decline over the same period, causing major families to lose their money. Now it has It was fully launched, and Zhou Huairen also got first-hand news about Chang'an City.

"Greetings to the Emperor..."

When Zhou Huairen saw the emperor, he was still a little scared. Of course, he was also very proud. He, a small businessman, could report sales directly to the emperor. This was considered the pinnacle of businessmen.

"Did they change the price?"

The emperor didn't care about this person's etiquette, but asked the most important thing immediately. Li Xiang set the price at five hundred cents, which was already a relatively low price. It was the highest among other major families. There's a big gap between the salt that I'm waiting for and Li Xiang's, but they've set the price at 1,500 wen.

They bought the salt from the imperial court, which already cost a lot of money. If the price of salt was not raised, then they would not be able to make money, and they would not even be able to get their capital back, so this paragraph Over time, major families who have salt in their hands have been speculating on high salt prices.

Li Shimin is also paying attention to this all the time, so he asked Li Xiang to start early, otherwise the people will have trouble sooner or later if they can't eat salt. Now that Li Xiang's exquisite salt is on the market, let's see if they can survive.

"Forehead……"

Zhou Huairen was still a little nervous after seeing the emperor, and suddenly forgot what he had prepared before.

“How are our sales doing?”

Li Xiang didn't blame Zhou Huairen. After all, he was an ordinary businessman and it was normal for him to have never seen the world.

"Returning to Your Highness, we have a total of 20,000 jins in stock in Chang'an City today, and they have all been sold out. We have also registered a batch of pre-sales, and they have all paid deposits. The pre-sales are 35,000 jins. At present, The number is increasing."

After hearing this number, both Li Shimin and Li Xiang breathed a sigh of relief, but they were afraid that our salt could not be sold. If our salt could not be sold, there would be no way to suppress the prices of the major families, and there would be no way. Let them accept huge losses, and there is no way to let the people eat cheap salt.

"According to your estimation, when should major families lower their prices?"

Li Shimin didn't know much about some business matters, but to deal with major families, he had to suppress them in business. This was the least expensive way to weaken them the most.

Isn't it because the major families have been able to move around the Tang Dynasty in recent years because they have a lot of money? Money can make the world go round. Although Li Shimin can suppress them forcefully, if they do so, they will cause a bloody storm in the market and put the entire Datang economy in an unstable state. Even if they are finally eliminated After being suppressed, Li Shimin also got a mess, so both sides fought within the framework.

"We will see the outcome within a few days."

Li Xiang did not dare to talk too much. After all, each major family has its own ruler, and their governing ideas may not be the same. Some families have more salt guides, and some families have less salt guides. So we have to continue to wait and see what it will look like.

"Shopkeeper, shopkeeper, the price at Zheng's store in Nancheng has been reduced, from 1,500 to 1,400..."

A waiter at the door said loudly, as he had already explained before, if you have anything to do, just shout out from the door, no one can come in.

Only dropped by a hundred?

After the grandfather and grandson heard the news, their faces were not very happy. The people of the major families were not fools. If the price was only reduced by a hundred cents, then the highest grade salt in their hands would not be sold at all. Their Compared with Li Xiang's quality, there is simply a world of difference.

"The salt of the Li family in Zhao County has dropped to 1,400 yuan..."

The second family that has lowered its prices has also come out. As long as it follows suit, it will definitely continue to drop prices, but I don’t know how big it will be.

This is different from what Li Xiang originally expected. According to Li Xiang's original expectation, these people must have bought their own samples immediately, and then compared them with their own, they will also know the difference in quality, and they should know the difference. Let’s lower the price directly to less than 500 yuan instead of just 100 yuan.

“Do our selling prices need to be adjusted?”

When Zhou Huairen saw the faces of Li Shimin and Li Xiang, he naturally knew that he had not reached the standard, but what we can do now is extremely limited. Even if our prices are lowered, the salt on our hands is limited. If they are all sold out now If so, it will not end well in the future.

"Don't act rashly. Logically speaking, these people are not fools. After our salt goes on the market, it is impossible for them to continue to sell it at the original price. If they still sell it at the original price, then their goods will most likely become waste." That’s right, you can get some of yourself back by selling it for less money, but you can’t hold on to a bunch of rubbish, right?”

Li Xiang also felt a little strange. This was not at all what he expected. He had dealt with Qi Wang of the Five Surnames. These people were not stupid. Some of them were even stronger than him. He could handle this account himself. The calculation is clear. Could it be that they can’t figure it out clearly?

"No, someone's coming..."

Li Shimin suddenly thought of something. This was related to some previous cases. Li Xiang looked at Li Shimin without knowing why. Two men in black suddenly rushed in from outside. Except for Wang De, Li Shimin didn't bring anyone in just now. Look. It turned out that I had underestimated the current emperor.

"Go and find out who bought all the salt right away."

After Li Shimin said this, Li Xiang was also shocked. He remembered that at the last auction, Cui Sanye was very generous and bought almost everything he could buy. Although their hands There are no goods here, but you can be a second-tier dealer, and a monopolistic second-tier dealer.

"This is impossible. We have registered all the purchasers. They all belong to different families..."

Zhou Huairen also understood some of them, but according to what he learned, some people had nothing to do with Wu Xing Qi Wang. If Wu Xing Qi Wang wanted to monopolize them, it would be simply impossible.

Li Shimin and Li Xiang didn't say anything. Zhou Huairen underestimated Wu Qiwang's ability, and his grandfather and grandson also underestimated Wu Qiwang's ability...
