Chapter 36 Successful Salt Production, Seizing the Market
Time flew by and five days passed.
These days, the purge of Beiliang General Manager Wang Ziwen has finally come to an end. In addition to sweeping away several gangs, the biggest result is that he has obtained more than 200,000 yuan.
Regarding this ending, Lin Yi couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. It couldn't be that his father followed his example after seeing his own profits.
He guessed in his heart that it was probably nine out of ten.
It seems that Beiliang is really under a lot of pressure right now. His father has to kill the goose to get the eggs, so I have to help him quickly. This can be regarded as a filial piety.
At the same time, the trip to Xiliang is imminent.
Lin Yi has not been idle these days. In addition to supplementing some historical knowledge about today's world, he has gained something by analyzing the origins and background of the forces in Xiliang.
At least the situation is probably clear, and I won't be blinded.
Except for a few indigenous people in Xiliang, they are actually basically people from the northern barbarians and the Daning Dynasty. After all, Northern Liang also belongs to the Daning Dynasty.
Among these forces, the strongest one is Tuoba Yu, the general of the barbarians in the northern region.
This man has nearly a hundred thousand troops under his command and has been controlling the territory to the north of Dayuguan. His first enemy is probably him. As long as he is taken down, Xiliang will basically be defeated.
However, the size of an army of 100,000 is not small. Even if he only has more than 10,000 people now, it is still difficult to destroy Tuoba Yu.
After all, there is a country behind the opponent, and he must cut through the mess quickly. If he cannot destroy the opponent quickly, he will probably be dragged into the whirlpool of war, and that will be a serious problem.
So now we need a lot of resources to develop at the fastest speed. This is the top priority.
"Your Majesty, salt has successfully treated poison!"
At this time, Zhang Long's cheers came from outside, which made Lin Yi wake up instantly, and then he couldn't help but get excited.
Table salt was finally produced successfully!
Even with the technical drawings, it still took five days to hatch this golden egg. It was really not easy.
Lin Yi pushed the door open and walked out, confirming: "Zhang Long, was the salt production successful?"
"Haha, it worked!"
"Wow, we finally succeeded, Your Majesty."
"It's not easy to get rich!"
Zhang Long and Zhao Hu were crying and laughing, and the excitement in their hearts made them want to dance. These days, they have been staring at the salt factory, not daring to leave.
Now it's finally successful. It's like being pregnant for ten months and giving birth all at once.
move!
Want to cry!
They took out a porcelain bottle from behind and handed it to Lin Yi carefully, as if it were a treasure, for fear of breaking it.
Lin Yi poured out the salt from the porcelain bottle. It was indeed as white as jade, with no flaws at all.
He said in a deep voice: "Have you done the poison test?"
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, we've tested it and it's definitely not poisonous." Zhang Long was afraid that Lin Yi wouldn't worry, so he poured a handful and put it in his mouth, his face suddenly elongated.
Salty, salty!
Seeing this, Lin Yi nodded slightly, if that's the case, then it's done.
Seeing how excited the two of them were, he smiled and said: "Okay, don't be such a loser. You two have done well this time, and I will be rewarded heavily. Go to the accounting office and get the money yourself, one thousand taels per person!"
Wow!
When they heard that there were many rewards, the eyes of the two people instantly shone with gold. The Crown Prince had always said that he was right, but he didn't expect that it would be a thousand taels per person. The Crown Prince was too generous.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The two of them smiled happily and went directly to the accounting room to receive the reward.
But when they saw the banknote in their hands, they couldn't help but were slightly stunned. Why did the banknote look so familiar?
Lin Yi had no time to care about them. He called Jia Xu directly and said: "Now that the salt has been successful, you arrange for someone to push it into the market and find another appropriate person to take charge of this matter."
Now that table salt has been successfully produced, we can no longer delay it. It is also time to seize the market.
The salt in Beiliang City has always been in the hands of the Ran family. Now that they are launching their own high-quality salt, they can completely catch the opponent off guard.
"good!"
Jia Xu's eyes suddenly lit up with golden light. Now his lord would no longer be short of money and he could show off his talents.
He directly called the person in charge of the salt factory and ordered: "This military division is going to seize the Ran family's market, so the troops are very quick, and the workers below need to go all out."
"As long as they can't do it to death, they'll do it to death, and I'll give them three times their wages!"
Roar!
As soon as the triple salary was announced, the people below immediately cheered.
There is nothing in this world more attractive than money. With three times the salary, they can give their families a better life, which is their dream.
With all their efforts, bags of Baihuahua's high-quality table salt were produced, which went directly to the Beiliang market.
Just like a huge stone thrown into the pond, it instantly caused an uproar and directly shook the entire Beiliang.
.......
"Folks, now there is a high-quality table salt that is as white as jade. It is said that it was created by our prince. This salt is purer than ordinary refined salt, has no bitter taste at all, and is safe and pollution-free."
"Really or not, if it's so powerful, wouldn't it be a sky-high price?"
"What do you know? The prince worked hard to build this. It is said to benefit us people, so the prince sells it to us at a price lower than that of coarse salt. This is a great benefit!"
"What, the price of the best refined salt is lower than that of coarse salt. This is too exaggerated. Your Majesty, this is a loss-making business."
"You know nothing, this is the pattern of the Crown Prince. We are all the subjects of the Crown Prince, so he will naturally treat us preferentially. This is the benefit the Crown Prince gives us."
The news spread quickly, and all the people in Beiliang were attracted and stood in front of a shop named Tianxiahui.
Because this is the place where the prince sells salt in legend, these people came here to witness this moment and see if there is really such cheap and high-quality salt.
However, after waiting for a long time and still not waiting for the opening, some people finally couldn't wait any longer.
"Shopkeeper, why is this shop called Tianxiahui?"
Someone asked curiously.
This name is very strange, and it sounds even weirder. It feels more like the name of a department.
The shopkeeper Jia Xu explained with a smile: "Our prince has said that he will not seek political power if he is not in his position. Previously, he was just a prince and only needed to play. But now that he is temporarily in charge of Beiliang City, he will naturally do some things to benefit the government.
It’s a matter of common people.”
"The land before was one, and the salt now is the second gift from the Crown Prince to you!"
