She plans to let the puppet go out to do business and make a series of salts. The best grade is for the nobles, the second grade salt can be used by people with some money, and there are also ordinary salts, which are similar to official salt.
Yes, of course there won't be any rocks or gravel.
The best salt is salt that has been processed many times to remove excess minerals. It is the highest-grade salt. In appearance and taste, it is much better than ordinary coarse salt. It is comparable to that of green salt.
This type of salt is the most profitable.
Since these salts are the most high-end among a series of salts, even if the salts are not as white as snowflakes, they must be very white and comparable to the green salt used by the nobles.
In addition, Lingxiao also specially designed some outer packaging to make these salts look high-end, which will make their salts more competitive.
Ling Xiao did not expect to replace the green salt with the salt he produced. That was impossible. After all, the green salt that the nobles had used for so long also had feelings.
They have their own purchasing channels, and ordinary people can't get in. After all, green salt does have a pivotal position, and using green salt represents a kind of style. Just like in the later world, many people think that using luxury goods is a sign of style.
Same.
Green salt represents luxury goods, and she has no intention of replacing it. She just wants to be a supplier and let other people earn the money later, even at a lower price.
There is no need to make all the salt to this level. This kind of salt is completely used to enter the high-end market. These salts may not be effective immediately, so a smaller quantity is better.
Most of the salt produced is coarser and larger grained salt, which can be sold to ordinary people at a slightly higher price than official salt, but overall it is very fast.
After purification, at least it should not be so yellow, and some bitter ingredients have been removed, and it will be much more delicious. It seems to be a bit of a disadvantage, but in fact it is not a disadvantage at all.
After deciding on the product, Ling Xiao thought about what she should do to open up the salt market. Then she thought of a price war, which she completely defeated other salt producers.
You must know that if she makes coarse salt from sun-dried salt, she uses puppets instead of people. Naturally, she does not need to pay any wages. There is no need to spend money on sea water. The labor is free, plus some packaging fees, but overall
Said the cost is very low.
This also means that the salt produced by the puppet can compete with any other company on price. It can definitely make some money, completely improve the He family's life, and there will definitely be money in case there is a need to hoard some things.
After Ling Xiao thought about it carefully, he asked the puppet to find the most suitable place to build a salt field. There was no one living in the place he chose. In ancient times, the land was vast and sparsely populated, and some places were not inhabited at all.
Why don't most people dare to go? That's because there were many wild animals in ancient times, including jackals, tigers and leopards. One person or a few families couldn't resist. Most people lived together to build their courage.
Puppet is not a real person. It does not need to eat or sleep. It will not provoke wild beasts and is not afraid of wild beasts. It can completely find a place where no one is around to do things.
In this era, the distance between residence and residence was very long. Even if there were fishing villages on the seaside, they were far away. After the salt fields were built, no one knew about them, so a lot of salt was produced.
Therefore, no one really came to the place that Ling Xiao found. As a precaution, the area was made like a trance circle. Outsiders would never be able to enter, and there would be no way to discover the salt field. Naturally, the secret would not be leaked.
When she did these things, she did not think about getting rich. She only thought about having enough money for the original owner and brother and sister, so that the He family would not be ruined if something happened or got sick.
And why Ling Xiao thinks this way is because he knows very clearly: In ancient times, just having money was of no use, because the richer you were, the more likely you were to be a pig waiting to be slaughtered. Money comes and goes quickly.
The only way is to let the original owner's younger brother have his own abilities. Otherwise, what's the use of having a fortune? And being too rich will attract people's hatred. Even if you have power to protect you, you may not be able to protect yourself, because power is not static.
The most famous example is that of Shi Chong. Shi Chong was the son of the founding hero of the Western Jin Dynasty. He belonged to the second generation of Quan, which gave him the opportunity to become an official.
When he became an official, he became very arrogant and domineering. He always felt that he had a backing, he searched for money everywhere, and even sent people to rob those rich people. In the end, he relied on those shady methods to become a rich man.
In the process, he exchanged ten dendrobium pearls for a beautiful concubine, and she became the famous Lvzhu in later generations. Later, she was specially placed in Jingu Garden, and Lvzhu had to be shown off every time guests came.
Shi Chong was rich and powerful, he was domineering in his work, and he also liked to compete with others for wealth. All of his actions made him have many enemies secretly, but it was just because there were people behind Shi Chong that he temporarily let Shi Chong go.
Later, when the prince to whom Shi Chong was attached was defeated in the power struggle, he began to suffer blows one after another. Some people even asked him for green beads. When Shi Chong refused, the other party became furious and came with soldiers.
When Shi Chong saw this scene, he said to Lv Zhu: I am doing this all for you! In the end, the so-called beautiful woman, Lv Zhu, fell down the building and died in order to repay Shi Chong's kindness.
Later, people continued to praise Lu Zhu's case, saying that Lu Zhu was affectionate and righteous, and that he and Shi Chong were very affectionate, and called the man who forced Lu Zhu away from him a bastard.
But Ling Xiao felt that Shi Chong was not a bastard! In the whole incident, Ling Xiao believed that the most innocent person was none other than the beautiful woman Lu Zhu. Her experience completely reflected the tragic life of a beautiful woman in ancient times.
She had the most stunning beauty that a woman could ever dream of, but she had no ability to protect herself. Beauty became a sin, and she was sold for ten pieces of pearls.
At that time, she was not necessarily far away from becoming a concubine, but even if her family did not want to sell their daughter, they did not dare to defy the patrolling Shi Chong everywhere.
Luzhu's family did not want their daughter to be a concubine, so the whole family was destroyed. Luzhu was still made a sin slave and became Shi Chong's concubine, so she became Shi Chong's concubine.
Ha! After Lv Zhu died, someone said that she had a deep relationship with Shi Chong. Ha ha! To love her is to let her be his concubine! Is it possible? In order to show his love for her, Shi Chong gave her fine clothes and food, and also gave her many benefits.
, can be said to be extremely doting.
But does she really like Lvzhu? You must know that after Lvzhu arrived at Jinguyuan, once Shi Chong accompanied his friends, she was asked to dress up carefully and played the flute to entertain Shi Chong and his friends when they arrived.
.
It seemed that Lvzhu was favored by Shi Chong and had been bragging about her in many ways. In fact, Shi Chong didn't really care about Lvzhu. In the final analysis, he just regarded her as a beautiful toy.
It's just that because the green bead is beautiful, he hasn't gotten tired of playing with it yet. Just like when the person who wanted the green bead arrived, although Shi Chong didn't intend to hand over the green bead, he let the other concubines dress up beautifully.
Let someone choose.
One day Luzhu gets tired of playing with her, or maybe she will be given away one day when her beauty fades with age. But she died at the most beautiful moment, so there will be legends about the love between Shi Chong and Luzhu.
After Shi Chong's side was defeated, he knew very well that he was only afraid of being liquidated by the winner. The other party thought that the best and most devastating way was to take away his favorite things, and the Green Pearl was one of them.
important benchmark.
In the final analysis, neither Shi Chong nor the man who insisted on snatching the green pearl cared about the life and death of the green pearl. Her fate was destined to be a tragedy: either death or another owner, no matter which one, the green pearl would be dead in the end.
It won't end well.
Luzhu's choice satisfied Shi Chong. After all, at some point a man still wants his own face, and her death finally ended the so-called struggle and fulfilled Shi Chong's self-esteem.
I believe Luzhu felt relieved when she died! As a very beautiful woman, she lived a good life at home, but for the sake of her family, she had to obey the people who forced her family. She did not dare to die easily, so as not to harm her family.
But when he finally got the chance to live without having to live, he decided to jump off the building to his death.
This is also the reason why Ling Xiao was very satisfied after knowing that the original owner was pretty and not a peerless beauty. In ancient times, if beauty had no protective power, it would be better to be ordinary.
Similarly, if a person has money but has not learned how to live a good life, it is better to have some money but not become rich and live a normal life, so that he can live peacefully until old age.
Therefore, Ling Xiao did not intend to give all the things he earned to the two original owners and siblings. Why did he say they were things? That was because there was not much money at this time.
The precious metal gold is rarely used as currency, and the amount of silver is still small. It is mostly used to make jewelry and other valuable items, and it is not used as currency of exchange. At this time, goods are mostly bartered.
For many periods of time, grain and cloth were the most common equivalents, which means that after selling salt, you may not receive any gold bars or silver ingots, but grain or cloth, and cloth is more likely to be received.
Ling Xiao felt a little helpless when she found out. She was more optimistic about gold and silver, but the current condition was that she could only receive cloth and grain, which was fine, as well as a small amount of gold cakes.
Later, the people in charge of buying and selling were more optimistic about the most expensive salt, because during this period, green salt was not available, and those noble people were in urgent need of suitable substitutes. It just so happened that Lingxiao's salt had arrived, allowing them to earn more money.
Just ask the puppet if there is more snow salt. If there is more snow salt, you can definitely give her some gold jewelry and the like, and decide to satisfy her.
But Ling Xiao felt bad. In the end, she didn't ask for those gold ornaments, which couldn't be spent and would expose her position. She still wanted cloth, grain, or gold cakes.
As if nothing had happened, the other party still asked the puppet to give more snow salt. However, after Ling Xiao finished this, she planned not to come back within half a year, because she had already saved a lot of property, so she had better give her own things first.
Handle it well.
She held on to the cloth, and went to find someone to take a look. She found that there were no traces left on the cloth, so she handed over the things in her hand to buy the land. These were all issues that needed to be paid attention to.
This is because Ling Xiao knows one thing very well: even though the people in the government have no ability to deal with gangsters, they are quite powerful when dealing with ordinary people. If they do not do well, they will become a thorn in their side.
Ling Xiao didn't want to be a thorn, so she would pay all the taxes that should be paid. She didn't want others to think that Mrs. Liu's granddaughter was too unique, so she had to pay special attention to this.
She knew very well that she was different from ordinary women in this world in many ways. Of course, she also knew that some indigenous women were also more deviant. They could only leave home if they had their own background and backing.
Naturally, Ling Xiao had the confidence to deviate from the norm. The reason why she was not very willing to do so was because she thought of the original owner. She did not want to deceive the original owner. In many cases, she still had to put on the cloak of a serious young lady.
Although I don't know what kind of person the original owner will grow into, if the previous situation is similar to the education Ling Xiao received, the original owner should be a young talented girl, but she will definitely not have any military value.
In Ling Xiao's opinion, a talented woman is good, but in a situation where the world is in chaos, it is better to have force value. Therefore, Ling Xiao thought for a while that in order to survive, he did not care about the issue of whether the character will collapse or not. If it really happened
If it's going to collapse, it should also be the original owner's character that collapses.
After traveling through so many worlds, Ling Xiao still cares about the future of his original owner, but he also feels that he should not only wrong himself, and should not always think about his original owner.
Because she knows very well that after the troubled times, it is really impossible to be a talented woman. She can learn knowledge, but she will never leave her life in the hands of others without practicing kung fu?
Come on! When the chaos comes, the first to be abandoned are women and children, because the old, the young, and women are all physically weaker than the average male.
In the process of escaping, she is often left behind. She is not willing to put her life in the hands of others. Even if she is not abandoned, she may become a meal in other people's mouths.
The moral bottom line in ancient times was always very low. Once there was a famine, people would be cannibalized. People in later generations would have genes specifically designed to resist prions in their DNA.
There are also some people who sell themselves to murderous butchers just because they want their families to live. These people are willing to be two-legged sheep, but they don’t know if they will regret it when their flesh is cut off from their bodies while they are still alive.
There are also some people who are directly tied up and sold by their families. Of course, there are also cases where others are caught and eaten. Therefore, Ling Xiao feels that one must have force value to live well.
I believe that the original owner will understand Ling Xiao's thoughts after knowing it, and will not object to what Ling Xiao does. If the original owner is not considerate, there will be nothing wrong.
Ling Xiao made up her mind not to care what the other person thought. She believed that she tried her best to consider the original owner. If the original owner was not satisfied, she really had no choice.
Even if the original owner finds that everything has changed after he comes back and wants to talk to Huanlang, he is afraid that Huanlang cares more about Ling Xiao and the original owner may be very sad when he finds out.
But there was nothing that could be done about it. If she didn't go to escort the food, why would Yang Dalang become more polite? This is because Yang Dalang saw that Ling Xiao had real abilities.
