No one expected that something like this would happen.
Queen Reguli and the third prince Halik, even more unexpectedly, couldn't help looking at Liu Zheng with joy, and the former's eyes became even more intense...
Hemuti's face changed even more: "What? How could this happen?"
The royal family cooperates with businesses?
Although this matter has happened before, the so-called government and businessmen are still in the monopoly industry. Under Loulan's open and free government, government and businessmen are just a virtual reality. But now the Loulan royal family has decided to participate in the sale of refined salt.
All of a sudden, it was a bit hard to react.
All the vendors looked at each other.
Some people raised objections and asked whether this was the beginning of a monopoly by the royal family?
But Xiang Chenglin immediately gave an answer.
It is not a monopoly, it is just participation. It will provide vendors with maximum security during transportation. It is even possible to use the military to protect the transportation of these refined salts and the safety of vendors from various countries along the way.
Moreover, the Loulan royal family will not gain the slightest benefit from it and will still only collect taxes.
It's just that the tax on refined salt is 10% higher than that on coarse salt!
When everyone heard this, they were amazed. They did not expect that there is such an operation model. It sounds like it is quite reliable. With the protection of the Loulan royal family, there will be an extra guarantee in the Western Region. 10% of the tax, that is,
Not a big problem.
and......
In the eyes of these people, nothing can resist their enthusiasm to win refined salt!
"no problem!"
"We agree!"
"We don't have any objections!"
One by one, they are scrambling.
Xiang Chenglin smiled: "Everyone, now is the time to bid!"
"The proportion of refined salt is divided into twenty parts for the time being!"
"Each country has only one general agent! The general agent has full power to sell in his own country, including monopoly, pricing, etc..."
"The general agent, the one with the highest price will get it!"
The people present started talking about this rule again.
General agent?
How had they ever heard of it? But who wouldn’t be excited at the thought of being able to monopolize the input of refined salt?
"We, the Mohore Chamber of Commerce, want to win the general agent of the Arab Empire! Two hundred thousand taels!"
A wealthy Middle Eastern businessman immediately stood up.
"Haha, Moheer, are you kidding me? Two hundred thousand taels, you just want to be a lifetime agent? I'll pay you three hundred thousand!"
"Five million, Persian agent!"
"Nanyang agent, five hundred thousand!"
"Western agent, six hundred thousand!"
The scene went crazy instantly.
With the Loulan royal family's credit as an endorsement, unlimited supply, and security, why not? The Loulan royal family is very rich. They have accumulated a large amount of wealth just through taxation over the years.
Lie to them.
Liu Zheng and Zheng Yueru looked at each other.
There was a look of surprise in their eyes.
It seems that this trip to Loulan can make them make a fortune again!
Not only that!
As soon as the agreement was signed today, one of the clauses was that within the territory of Loulan, traders from various countries should advance and retreat together with the Loulan royal family and "cooperate for security"! Coupled with the allure of this refined salt, these traders' weapons can naturally serve as the Loulan royal family.
Used!
Looking at this crazy group of people, Hemuti's face turned black.
Who would have thought that in just a few days.
When Xiang Zheng came, he not only captured the pro-Han groups and civil and military officials in Loulan, but also these foreign traders!
It's too late!
He glared at Liu Zheng angrily, mounted his horse and ran away.
