Chapter 524: The next moment is the moment to witness a miracle
On the second day, all salt shops in Xiangyang City opened as usual——
Especially large salt shops like Ma's Salt Shop and Cai's Salt Shop, which have large stocks of refined salt. They even have almost the same signboard as Youjian Salt Shop:
The price of one stone is fifty yuan for coarse salt, two hundred yuan for green salt, and finally one thousand yuan for refined salt.
In the same way, you will receive as much as you can.
Fortunately, the salt merchants who had gotten the news early yesterday saw this opportunity and sold more of their private salt to the Ma's and Cai's salt shops.
For no other reason...even if Li Yue didn't close down a salt shop yesterday, they didn't dare to act rashly.
No, when the party wins forever, instead of trusting a wealthy outsider, it is better to sell all the inventory to the time-honored brands in Xiangyang City - it saves worry and peace of mind.
The acquisition of salt shops in the West Market is in full swing. On the contrary, there is a salt shop located on the bank of Qinghe River that is not only a little sluggish compared to yesterday.
Across the street, someone was watching from a distance, pointing at a deserted salt shop.
The shopkeeper of a salt shop seemed not to notice, and was still sunbathing leisurely on the bench.
"Send a message back... saying that there is a salt shop that has no merchants coming to sell salt. I just want to reassure Fourth Master and the others..."
The eyes hiding in the dark are always watching the actions of Youjian Salt Shop, watching to see if Yi Xiaotian has more moves.
But after noon, even if only a few people came to sell salt, Yi Xiaotian showed no sign of panic.
On the contrary, the few clerks who remained enthusiastic - Xu Chulejin and Huang Yueying and Zhen Luo always seemed to be unaware of it and were very respectful to any customer who came to sell salt.
"They really don't intend to make money, don't you think it's strange?"
Even if you have such doubts in your heart, the people following you in the dark are just servants. How can they speak?
——
Mr. Pang De is alone today. It seems that the boy who is his school boy has been left at home by him, and the purpose of his coming today is also very simple, just to see how Yi Xiaotian, the strange owner of the village, wants to deal with what happens next.
matter.
Mr. Pang Degong has a slender figure, his long hair is pulled up into a bun, he has a smile on his face and walks like the wind.
After walking around and entering the city, he soon came to a salt shop. When he saw the empty scene, Pang Degong frowned slightly:
"Master Yi... the disturbance is still there, the mountain people come uninvited..."
Pang Degong calls himself a mountain man because he has put aside his grudges in the world and spends the rest of his life in the mountains and forests. Naturally, he calls himself a "mountain man".
There is no way to know his destiny. When Yi Xiaotian asked about it yesterday, he only said that he had a prefix and it was "Shangchang".
"Where is it? If Mr. Pang is willing to come to Yi's shop, he is already a reward. How dare you ask for more?"
It was a polite statement, but Mr. Pang Degong did not come just to chat with Yi Xiaotian, so he lowered his voice and asked doubtfully:
"This...what's going on?"
He spread his hands, indicating that this was a desolate scene. Logically speaking, based on yesterday's price, Yi Xiaotian's business should still be booming today.
Yi Xiaotian smiled and said nothing.
He just asked Zhen Luo to send a small bag of salt to Mr. Pang De.
Pang Degong took the salt in the cloth bag, with a puzzled face, and tilted his head to look at Yi Xiaotian who was smiling.
"Master Yi, this salt... is a gift for me?"
"Haha, Pang Gong can take it if he needs it, but I want Pang Gong to have a taste of the salt."
Yi Xiaotian gave up, while Pang Degong pursed his lips and thought for a moment...
"Of course it's possible, but... is there anything special about Zhuang Yi's salt?"
Pang Degong asked doubtfully, but without stopping, he directly reached into the bag and stirred it for a while - then he took out his fingers, and between his slender index fingers, there was now a layer of crystal clear and as white as winter snowflakes.
grain…
After Pang Degong's eyes were attracted by these crystal particles, he didn't say anything for a long time...
With a shocked look in his eyes, he put his finger towards the tip of his tongue——
The pure feeling without any impurities in his mouth instantly made Mr. Pang sober.
He opened his eyes wide, and while looking at Yi Xiaotian, speechless, he again put his fingers into the cloth bag without leaving any trace.
Another bite…
Even though he knew that too much salt was bad for the health, Pang Degong was deeply fascinated by this wonderful taste.
"This...is this refined salt? No...I also have Ma's and Cai's refined salt, but I have never tasted such a direct and mellow taste..."
"This...Zhuang Yi! Could this be your trump card?"
Pang Degong exclaimed, and everyone on the side who had witnessed the miracle earlier today looked at Pang Degong with a smile - because they seemed to see themselves in the early morning...
——
Time goes back to this morning.
Just when Ma Liang and many family owners were busy preparing capital to fight against Yi Xiaotian's Youjian Salt Shop acquisition plan during the day, a loud bang like a thunderbolt from the blue came from the mountain col in Lumen Mountain, alarming the barren mountain.
All the birds and beasts in the wild mountains.
But Yi Xiaotian, who was excitedly watching the opening of the salt mine, and the people who were standing beside him, who had already lit the fire according to Yi Xiaotian's request, felt mixed emotions at the moment.
"Sister Wanzhen, you know better. Do you know what your husband is trying to do?"
After two or three days of communication, Zhen Luo and Huang Yueying have actually become very close.
Although Zhen Luo is slightly older than Huang Yueying, their quiet and restless temperament makes them feel like sisters.
The two people talk about everything, and they seem to have in-depth discussions about someone's private matters every night at night. However, the person involved seems to be single-minded in this regard, only focusing on the salt field he is about to excavate.
"I don't know... It's just that, judging from the look on your face, it seems that you have already planned to do something for a long time..."
Huang Yueying pursed her lips and thought about it but couldn't figure out what Yi Xiaotian was going to do now.
He only told everyone that what is going to happen today will change the order of the entire world to a certain extent——
Xu Chu and Le Jin were guarding the cauldron, adding firewood, and passing the time boringly. If it weren't for the loud noise, they would probably have fallen asleep.
But after the loud noise, everyone looked nervously at the two salt mines deep in the col...
"coming!"
Someone yelled, and suddenly a strong figure jumped out of the hole.
Xu Chu stood up directly and recognized him at a glance as a soldier from Cao Ying. The soldier was sweating profusely and his armor was already soaked with sweat, but this could not resist the bright smile on his face.
He shouted:
"Master of the village! Master of the village! The first piece of coarse salt mine is here!"
The man ran wildly, holding a large piece of "treasure" in his arms, and rushed towards Yi Xiaotian panting.
And Yi Xiaotian finally showed a rather proud smile.
