Chapter 833 833 Find trouble, just be happy with it
The Yun family's business covers a wide range of areas. The Yun family does everything that can make money. However, no matter how big the Yun family's business is, salt and silk still account for the majority. Even nearly 80% of the Yun family's income comes from salt and silk.
brought.
There is no way for the prince to intervene in the silk business in a short period of time. Only in the south of the Yangtze River can there be farmers who raise silkworms, and only in the south of the Yangtze River can there be masters of silk weaving. However, the silk business in the south of the Yangtze River has already been taken over by the four wealthy families of Yunyang, Wuhu and Hu.
After the partition, not to mention outsiders, even other merchants from Jiangnan had no involvement.
The only thing the prince can do is salt.
"Xiao Shaorong has already built a salt-drying pond in the small fishing village according to your request. When the weather gets warmer, we can start drying salt. If we can produce sea salt as you said, the Yun family's business will be greatly affected.
"The prince has always been a cautious person. Even if he had no intention of overthrowing the Yun family before, he has it now.
The Yun family actually wanted to use Ji Yunkai's identity as an excuse to blackmail Ji Yunkai, which was totally brainless.
"Actually, there is no need to take action against the Yun family. I don't care about the Yun family, and the Yun family doesn't dare to do anything to me." Ji Yunkai picked up the teapot, added a glass of water to the prince, turned around and poured himself another cup of fruit tea.
After having half a day of free time, the prince did not have to go out today and had no official duties to deal with, so he accompanied her outside to bask in the sun and enjoy the view of Yanbei Palace.
Of course, only Ji Yunkai enjoyed the scenery, and the prince only had beauty in his eyes.
"You can bear it when the Yun family throws dirty water on you, but I can't. Since the Yun family doesn't pay attention to things, I don't need to be polite to them." When did Young Master Yun send his troubled sister back?
No? You have to send people away as soon as you leave the Yanbei Prince's Mansion and make such a big fuss.
He didn't believe that Young Master Yun didn't deliberately drag Prince Yanbei's palace into trouble and attract people to Ji Yunkai.
The son of a merchant family actually played tricks in front of him. He simply thought that his life was too long.
What is the Yun family?
For someone who has nothing but money, I really don’t know what confidence Young Master Yun has to actually dare to throw dirty water on Prince Yanbei’s palace.
"Others will laugh at you for bullying a businessman." Ji Yunkai flattened the chair and half-lyed on it.
She had mentioned this kind of lounge chair to Nuan Dong a long time ago. This time the palace was rebuilt, the old housekeeper asked the craftsmen to make a batch of such chairs, and put two in each pavilion for her convenience to use when resting.
Seeing the piles of flowers in the palace and the deck chairs everywhere, Ji Yunkai couldn't help but sigh: Rights are great.
Think about it, she didn't even have enough to eat in Prince Yanbei's Mansion, what about now?
With her casual words, the people below will get things done without her having to worry about it at all.
"I'm just a merchant, so what if I bullied you?" This is not the first time that he has used his power to bully others.
"You are going to compete with the Yun family, but what about Beichen and Nanjiang? Don't you care?" The prince's original plan was to sell the salt to Nanjiang and Beichen.
It’s no wonder that Nanjiang and Beichen regard Tianqi as a thorn in their side and a thorn in their flesh. Tianqi is rich in resources and has all kinds of resources. The people of Tianqi have no worries about food and drink.
Southern Xinjiang and Beichen are different. These two places are lacking in resources. Apart from poisonous weeds and poisonous insects, Southern Xinjiang has almost no other available resources. Even the most basic needs of life, salt, are not available in Southern Xinjiang. All of them have to be sold from Tianqi.
But one day Tianqi became unhappy and refused to sell salt to Southern Xinjiang, so Southern Xinjiang would have no salt to eat.
The same goes for Beichen. Beichen only has iron ore, so Beichen has no other advantages except being famous for its weapons and its soldiers are good at fighting.
Beichen, Nanjiang and Apocalypse are at war with each other. Although Apocalypse has not explicitly banned the sale of grain, salt and other items to the two countries, the quotas given by the officials to the two countries are very sparse. In order for the people of the two countries to maintain their basic living needs, they can only buy food in private.
Buying from merchants is commonly known as smuggling.
Yanbei is close to both Nanjiang and Beichen. If merchants want to sell things to both countries, going from Yanbei is the most cost-effective and safest way.
Neither Nanjiang nor Beichen dare to run wild on Yanbei's territory. They usually pay for delivery, and there is very little foul play. If they want to ship goods from other places, there will most likely be trouble from Nanjiang and Beichen.
Swallowed.
The poor mountains and bad waters have brought trouble to the people, and the people of Nanjiang and Beichen are not good people. If it weren't for the king of Yanbei, the people of these two countries might have eaten the people of Tianqi alive.
Everyone is willing to do a profitable business. Although salt and food are necessary for daily life, selling some food and salt to Beichen and Southern Xinjiang during non-war times is also for the sake of peace between the two countries. Otherwise, the people of Beichen and Southern Xinjiang are extremely hungry and do not need it.
If the imperial court recruits troops, they will come to Tianqi to snatch them.
People must be given a little hope of living, and all their hopes must be shattered so that they are not even afraid of death. In the end, it is you who will have a headache.
The Prince of Yanbei also had private channels to trade with the two countries. The prince could exchange salt for silver, poisonous weeds and weapons from Nanjiang and Beichen without any effort.
"Just get more sun. The small fishing village is very big, and the sea water is inexhaustible. As long as there are people there, there will be no shortage of salt." It's just a matter of time, but he is not in a hurry now.
He still has to go to Beichen. When he comes back from Beichen, he believes that he has enough salt to kill the Yun family.
"It's up to you to decide." As far as Ji Yunkai is concerned, the Yun family is just a strange family whose name she knows, and she really has no way to care about it.
Instead of wasting time on the Yun family, she might as well think about whether she should go to the Ji family to visit Mr. Ji who was ill and almost had a stroke.
While Ji Yunkai was still hesitating, servants from the Ji family came directly to the door, saying that their master was seriously ill and wanted to see Ji Yunkai.
Not only that, the Ji family also made it very loud, for fear that others would not know that Ji Yunkai did not visit his seriously ill father.
"Okay, don't think about it now." Ji Yunkai couldn't help but smile when he heard Nuan Dong's report.
Laughing mockingly.
The prince knew that Ji Yunkai was unhappy, so he held her hand and said, "If you don't want to go, don't go." Doesn't he know what the condition of Mr. Ji's illness is?
Master Ji is pretending to be sick, aren't you afraid of getting really sick?
The Yun family is not a kind family, and Mrs. Ji is not a kind person either.
"Go, why don't I go? My biological father is seriously ill, how can I not go." Ji Yunkai was really angry. This behavior of the Ji family disgusted her and erased the last trace of her affection for the Ji family.
Abandon.
From the beginning to the end, it was the Ji family that was sorry for her. No matter how displeased she was with the Ji family, she never took revenge on the Ji family. She was really kind and kind to the Ji family.
How did the Ji family repay her?
When the situation in the capital was unclear, the Ji family stood on the side of outsiders and dealt with her, the daughter of the Ji family, by accusing her of being unfilial... (To be continued)
