Chapter 1476: Brewing
When everyone heard the words, they laughed in their hearts, and found that this Lu Gongzi was actually quite cute.
If you don't know that this Lu Gongzi, who doesn't know the height of the sky, stood up and messed around, he really put a piece for Wei Guogong, and obediently gave this straw bag Guogong filial piety to Yicheng for the purchase of salt.
Now, not only do they not need to pay this money, but they have not offended this Duke of Wei, and they have already obtained the best result.
The price increase went bankrupt, and the next step was the subscription link. In fact, the process is very simple, everyone has a fixed share, and they can claim the full amount or only a part.
Taixing's Zhang Yuanwai stepped forward to get two tickets, and said with a smile to everyone: "There are only two tickets outside this member!" If anyone is willing to cut their love, they can claim it outside the member, and invite him to eat and drink when they go out! β
As soon as these words came out, everyone shook their heads and smiled bitterly.
No one will choose to give up this claim easily, they all have their own salt sales channels, and the local county government does not dare to check them. As long as the salt is delivered to their area, it is a pile of white flowers.
Looking at the entire Jiangnan, if there is anything that is the least worrying about selling, it is the salt that the people can't live without. Compared with other regions, the purchasing power of the people in Jiangnan is quite strong, as long as they do not overbid prices, they will not worry about selling at all.
Everyone stepped forward in turn to claim it, all of them received their fixed shares, and there was no voluntary abandonment or less subscription, and the atmosphere seemed to be happy.
Lu Gongzi stuck the fan behind his back, and reached forward to grab the ticket on the table.
"Wait!" Xu Pengju looked at Lu Gongzi and wanted to grab the eight tickets, but he suddenly stopped him.
Hey?
When Chen Yuanwai and the others heard this movement, they couldn't help but look at Xu Pengju one after another.
Lu Gongzi's hand stopped, squinted his eyes and turned his head to look at Xu Pengju and said, "Wei Guogong, what do you mean by this?" β
"Your Lu family's share this year is only three!" Xu Pengju raised his head and met Lu Gongzi's gaze, and responded flatly.
This......
When Chen Boren and the others heard this, they couldn't help but swallow and spit secretly, carefully observing Lu Gongzi's reaction. From eight to three, most of the share has been cut.
Lu Gongzi's face became more and more ugly, and his eyes forced Xu Pengju to say, "Wei Guogong, are you bullying our Lu family?" β
"If you really bully your Lu family, you Lu family will not be invited in. It's just that there is a fixed number of shares every year, and the share on the Songjiang side is too small, so I have to go over from your Lu family, and ask Lu Gongzi to focus on the overall situation! Xu Pengju's face did not change, and he explained lightly.
Lu Gongzi's face looked cloudy, and he glared at Xu Pengju with his eyes again. After a while, he reached out and grabbed the three tickets on the table, and left without looking back.
Chen Boren and Fan Qianshan exchanged glances, but secretly shook their heads and smiled bitterly.
Obviously, this Duke of Wei is the one who will repay him. Just now, Lu Gongzi directly ruined his good deeds, which made Xu Pengju make a fuss about the share, and directly reduced most of the Lu family's share.
But I have to admit that the current Lu family still has eight tickets, which is indeed worthy of the name. Lu Yi is only the servant of the Fusi of Beizhen, and his contribution to private salt is not great.
This is just a small episode, and everyone is claiming their share.
As long as they go to the agreed place at the appointed time to get the salt with their tickets, and then send the smuggled salt back to their salt stores to sell, they can make a huge profit from it.
Approaching dusk, the street in front of the Four Seasons Building is less noisy, some vendors have packed up their goods and returned home, especially some people living in the suburbs must take advantage of the gate to leave Yangzhou City.
Although the urchins had reached the age of studying, their families had apparently not given them restraints, and were chasing and frolicking each other in the streets, adding joyful laughter to the streets.
A young man who looks like a boy is sitting on top of the restaurant, and he can just see the situation in front of the Four Seasons Building. saw that Lu Gongzi came out angrily, and lost his temper at the belated entourage, so he got into the sedan chair and left.
Meng Zhao looked at the following situation in his eyes, looked thoughtfully at the sedan chair that left, and then turned his head to look at Lin Haoran and said, "Teacher, they should be gone!" β
Lin Haoran nodded slightly, but his eyes were still fixed on the departing sedan chair, as if he was thinking about something.
"Teacher, what are we going to do next?" Wang Shiju was also involved in this matter, and asked solemnly.
If it was just a guess before, but looking at the four seasons building of Yangzhou City, they had already spied on the corner of the smuggling network.
Lin Haoran watched the sedan chair disappear around the corner of the street, so he picked up the teacup and took a sip, and said as a matter of course: "If you want to catch a thief and take the stolen goods, you naturally have to find evidence!" β
"Teacher, what are we going to do?" Meng Zhao was very concerned about this matter, and immediately looked at Lin Haoran hopefully.
Wang Shiju also looked at the teacher, and he was very happy to be able to participate in this matter. As long as Lin Haoran told him to do something, even if it was to go up the sword mountain and down to the sea of fire, he would not hesitate to do it.
Lin Haoran put the teacup on the table, looked up at the two protΓ©gΓ©s who seemed to be about to move, but he was interested in the assessment: "What do you think you should do next as a teacher?" β
Meng Zhao and Wang Shiju exchanged glances, and immediately spit out a word with a clear heart: "Wait! β
Lin Haoran glanced at Meng Shao and Wang Shiju approvingly, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
But it's not that he doesn't want to rectify the salt administration as soon as possible, so he returns to the capital to serve as the squire of the six departments with this political achievement, helping his father-in-law who is too upright to fight with the old man of the Licorice Pavilion.
It's just that many things can't be done overnight, especially the rectification of salt, which is related to the interests of all parties, and we must be careful. In particular, it is necessary to be extremely cautious in eradicating this huge smuggling network.
Although he had found these distributors, he couldn't do anything about them. After all, he didn't have any evidence in his hands, and if he was too hasty, he would only be met with a crazy counterattack by this force.
Now, indeed, he could only wait in silence. For example, wait until they are trading to attack them, so as to dismantle these smuggling networks in one fell swoop, and then liquidate the people involved.
Yangzhou seems to have spent a peaceful time in June, but a storm is already brewing, and it seems that it can suddenly erupt at any time.
