The first batch of white salt has already been shipped from Bajun.
Chen Mu stood by the river and looked out. He didn't know how many ships there were. Anyway, according to Wang Zimo, they transported nearly 400,000 kilograms of white salt.
Once merchants in Kuaiji obtain this salt, the price of salt throughout Longxia will drop to a low point in less than two months.
These salt merchants will still sell salt at high prices when they first start selling it.
But Chen Mu believed that with so many second-rate dealers getting involved with each other, the price would soon drop.
As long as you don't maliciously raise prices, the market will eventually set a reasonable price for salt.
"Is there anything going on in the Mu family?"
Wang Zimo shook his head: "No, I have never seen the Mu family from the beginning to the end."
After thinking for a moment, Chen Mu said: "The lack of movement is the scariest thing. Send someone to keep an eye on it. I'm afraid this Japanese is not simple."
"good."
After the conversation, Chen Mu returned to Tangchen Villa.
At this time, Qi Yue was sitting in the courtyard, holding Chen Mu's damaged clothes and embroidering them carefully.
Since that day, Qi Yue has become much younger.
In addition, some time ago, Chen Mu lost control and consummated his marriage with Qi Yue, and he became even more in love with her.
This is Chen Mu's fifth woman, and he feels helpless.
But it is a man's nature to be flirtatious.
Who can bear to have a beautiful woman lying next to her every day?
I simply can’t hold it!
"Mr., my trousers are sewn. I didn't expect me to learn these needlework very quickly. What do you think?"
Chen Mu looked at the messy sewn clothes, still smiling and replied: "It looks good."
After saying that, Chen Mu was about to enter the inner room, but the next moment, Qi Yue stopped him again.
"What's wrong?"
"Tomorrow, a businessman from Japan will sell some rare items in Jubao Pavilion. Can you go with me?"
Japanese businessman?
Chen Mu nodded and agreed readily.
Since the last time he saw the things sold by the traveling merchant, Chen Mu was certain that the Japanese had already begun the age of navigation.
This time Chen Mu wanted to see what rare objects the Japanese could bring.
Nowadays, the Japanese trade with Longxia, especially in the coastal areas south of the Yangtze River, many Japanese people have settled here.
Although our ancestors despised them as Japanese people, the current Longxia dynasty has great respect for these Japanese people.
Even not long ago, the Jiangnan area was still being massacred and plundered by Japanese pirates.
But now, if you can marry a Japanese man or a Japanese woman, it will definitely be something that the whole family can be proud of.
Early in the morning, Chen Mu accompanied Qi Yue to Jubao Pavilion.
It is said that Jubao Pavilion is the property of the Mu family, so when we wait, we can see many Japanese Japs.
Wearing a kimono, wooden clogs, and a half-moon haircut, she really looks like a clown in an opera.
But ugly as hell, there were several Yangzhou women hugging each other.
These Japanese people do not have much financial power in the local area. In fact, they are no different from ordinary people.
But the others are Japanese. This alone makes the local women proud to serve.
"Hey, isn't this Qi Yue? Are you also coming to attend the treasure gathering party at my husband's house today?"
But just as he was about to enter the door, a very sharp sound suddenly sounded.
Chen Mu followed the source of the sound and saw a woman dressed in extremely disgusting clothes slowly approaching.
Her face was powdered, as white as a female ghost, she was dressed in a kimono, wearing wooden clogs, and holding a screen fan in her hand, a typical Japanese dress.
"Ji Min? Is that you?"
Qi Yue looked at this woman for a long time and asked.
With the clicking sound of clogs, the woman named Ji Min came to the three of them.
Then he shook his fan and said with a proud look on his face: "Isn't this look good on me? I heard from my husband that this is called... Geisha makeup."
Qi Yue frowned and looked at the finger-thick white powder: "Does this look good?"
Ji Min sneered: "What do you women from the Central Plains know? We women from Japan are all like this."
If he was afraid that his identity would be exposed, at this moment Chen Muzhen really wanted to capture this flirtatious woman and make her a Sichuan prostitute.
He speaks with an authentic Yangzhou accent, but he sounds like we are from Japan and you are from the Central Plains.
Not a traitor, but a traitor already, fuck him!
"It sounds like you... are marrying into the Mu family?"
Upon hearing Qi Yue's question, the pride on Ji Min's face climbed to a new peak.
"Haha, that's right. I'm afraid we sisters won't see each other very often. Next year, I may move to Japan with my husband. Hey, he's here."
After saying that, I saw a short, fat man wearing a kimono coming slowly.
This person is Mu's eldest son, his name is Mu Chuangu. Chen Mu knew about it during these days in Kuaiji.
Ji Min had a flattering look on his face and hurriedly greeted him.
What Chen Mu didn't expect even more was that there were dozens of Han people from Kuaiji around him, all of whom were bowing deeply to him at this moment.
He is not a slave, but he has already branded himself as a slave.
We know that the Japanese man in front of us is just a businessman like them.
Arriving in front of Chen Mu, Qi's father was already flattered and quickly bowed.
"Uh, hello, Master Muchuan."
In order to show goodwill, this sentence is even mixed with Japanese dialect.
Muchuangu was very satisfied, but when he saw the other two people, he frowned.
However, he saw that Chen Mu and his wife were still standing there motionless, looking at him quietly.
"My husband is the eldest son of Muchuan, you should salute when you see him!"
"That's right, daughter, you two hurry up and salute."
In full view of everyone, no matter what Ji Min and his father said, they just didn't move.
Na Muchuangu said with contempt: "People from the Central Plains should bow to Japanese people, you know!"
Qi Yue looked a little unhappy. She was different from Ji Min in front of her. Who among the salt merchants in Kuaiji wouldn't respect him respectfully?
She seems to be slowly transforming into a generation of business queen.
It is impossible to bow to such a second-generation ancestor.
But before he could speak, Chen Mu, who was standing by him, could no longer bear it. He stepped forward and slapped him with his backhand.
Seeing this scene, everyone looked shocked!
It turns out that this is the eldest son of the Muchuan family in Japan, but he was beaten by a little son-in-law of the Qi family!
The first person to speak out was Chen Muna's father-in-law: "What are you doing, son-in-law! This is the eldest son of the Mu family!"
Immediately afterwards, everyone around him began to ridicule Chen Mu.
"Don't talk about bowing. When people ask you to kneel, they are looking down on your son-in-law!"
"The other person is from Japan, and a lowly son-in-law dares to hit someone!"
After hearing these words and looking at the faces of the people around him, Chen Mudang felt his heart go cold.
Who are these people!
They would rather bow their knees for the Japanese who once slaughtered their compatriots, but are unwilling to say a word for themselves, and instead ridicule them!
But Chen Mu did not stop, and continued to slap the Japanese devil.
Then he kicked him to the ground.
Everyone was still accusing him, but they saw that Ji Min was about to go crazy again.
Before Chen Mu could take action, Qi Yue, who looked weak at the side, kicked the woman hard in the stomach.
"Woo!"
He immediately curled up on the ground.
Qi Yue looked around at everyone coldly, then stepped on Ji Min's pale face, only to hear an angry scolding.
"I am a descendant of the Han people! These people from Kuaiji have broken waists, but I, Qi Yue, have not! What Japanese aristocrats? That's bullshit! You can't wait for the Japanese people your ancestors called you. Logically speaking, you should kneel down before me!"
