The wealthy clans of the southeast have come together, not that they collude with each other, have some ulterior secrets, or some organization that has encouraged them together.

After all, it was a routine a long time ago to make up a mysterious organization and act as the mastermind behind the scenes.

Originally, these wealthy families were even hostile to each other, fighting to the death.

There is only one reason why they can get together in the Xu family and discuss countermeasures together, that is, the combination of the imperial court has shaken their foundation, and if they don't take action, they will really have no way to live.

Abolish the two yuan, it's so terrifying!

I think that Wang Yue and Lu Bing analyzed that the family controlled the place, and the two hands on the table were land and currency...... Abolishing two yuan is not as simple as casting silver into silver coins.

But for the convenience of exchange, all over the country have opened official silver numbers, first in the main cities, the main commercial areas, and then to the vast county to advance, the ultimate goal, to let the people in any place, within a radius of fifty miles, can find an official silver number. Or at least guaranteed an exchange point.

After the emergence of this system of official silver accounts, it naturally monopolized large transactions.

All the money collected by the imperial court was deposited in the official silver number, and the money for the merchants to buy and sell goods also had to go through the official silver number.

What's even more terrifying is still to come, the official bank will provide small loans to the people!

Yang Bo registered a bank called Sanyi.

This bank is specifically responsible for lending to farmers.

Among them, the official bank invested 50%, and the Yang family invested 50%.

Sanyi Bank provides small loans to the people, all of which are denominated in silver dollars and the annual interest rate shall not exceed 10 percent.

Yang Bo readily accepted that he was actually already doing this.

For example, he provided Han San with a loan, and Han San used the loan to buy iron pots and coal from him, and then sold the produced salt to him, and he used the salt to make money.

Don't look at the interest given by Yang Bo is very low, but every link has a profit, and in the end, the profit is quite amazing, basically doubling it directly, and ascending to heaven on the spot.

After cultivating with Wang Yue for so many years, Yang Bo was finally able to show his strengths.

Everyone has their own position, Yang Bo wanted to compare with Cui Shilin in the past, and he wanted to argue with Xu Jie, but now, he understands that what he is really good at is fiddling with money.

The finance that Master talked about to himself is not complicated.

It is nothing more than to use the power of capital to allocate resources and make the whole process of production and sales smoother.

The difference between him and the traditional money bank ticket number is also obvious.

Those people rely on money to make profits, and what they pursue is unearned and rentier.

I am different, and I am pursuing a win-win situation.

Although many times, this win-win means that he wins twice, but what does it matter, after all, he is not a clean person.

Let's take Han San and them as an example, this group of stove households who don't have enough food and no clothes to cover their bodies, after selling salt several times, they have earned more than 1,000 yuan.

The stimulation of money is always the most direct, and the village of Kato, which used to be the worst mixed, has become the envy of everyone.

Han San took the opportunity to absorb ten surrounding villages and jointly set up a salt factory...... After a short period of running-in, their annual output exceeded 200,000 leads.

What kind of concept is this, one citation of 200 catties, almost 30 or 40 people can eat a year, 200,000 citations, that is, the amount of 7 million people, almost able to contract a political envoy.

In the past, this output was also the limit of the top salt merchants.

It's only been a few months, and it's easy to achieve.

I have to say that the power of capital, in the production area, is really devastating, completely sweeping and crushing.

What is even more frightening is that driven by profits, the workers are crazy to improve the salt-making process.

As mentioned earlier, the salt farms in Lianghuai and other places generally adopt the method of combining sun-boiling, and the stove households will first introduce seawater into the salt pond and use sunlight to evaporate, during which they will also use the ash showering method to remove impurities and obtain clear brine, and then put the brine into the pot to boil to obtain salt.

But in some areas, it has been discovered that even if you don't boil it and continue to expose it to the sun, the bottom of the brine will precipitate white salt.

This is the salt drying method!

Drying salt is much better than boiling salt.

How big can an iron pot be? The salt pond for drying salt can get a few acres or dozens of acres. And thanks to the power of sunlight, there is no need to waste fuel.

The advantages are simply too great.

Since there was such a method in the past, why didn't the people promote it?

The reason is simple, why do they produce more salt?

The more production, the more exploitation by the salt merchants of the imperial court, they can't see the benefits at all, and they make money for others, and they are fools!

Now it's different, and it's really profitable to produce more salt.

In Yancheng, a large area of salt ponds appeared.

The salters first introduce the seawater into the first pool, carry out the initial drying, and then continue to divert water to other pools, during which the salt of the seawater is concentrated, the impurities in the water precipitate, and when the ninth pool is introduced, the salt can be waited.

God forbid, there was no rain, and the sea breeze passed overnight, and the bottom of the pool precipitated white salt!

It's done!

It really happened!

That's a lot of salt!

Conservative estimates, there are hundreds of citations!

I didn't use an iron pot or coal, but I just got the salt, and it was very clean, which was really developed.

They were originally classified as stove households, specializing in boiling sea salt, but now they don't use stoves, is it the name of stove households, and that's the end of it?

"That's right, you're all salt workers now, very honorable workers!"

Yang Bo announced with a smile.

Han San subconsciously shuddered.

"Yang, Lord Yang, we're just messing around, don't care."

Yang Bo smiled, "How can this be played casually?" From boiling salt to drying salt, it's a big step forward! Something to congratulate. You don't think I'm going to be angry with you because I can't sell the pot and coal, do you? ”

"Wrong! Big mistake! You underestimate Yang's mind too much. Yang Bo laughed loudly, "I'm so happy now, I'm crazy with joy." Can I sign a new agreement with you? ”

Here's the real key!

Han San subconsciously cheered up, and after a fierce quarrel, the two sides finally reached a transaction price of one yuan and two citations.

However, both sides kept a hand.

Han San hoped that Yang Bo would help him get more salt pans, and they needed a wide area, a better beach, to act as a salt pan.

Yang Bo said that Yantian can, but the purchase price must be appropriately reduced, otherwise he can support others.

An agreement was reached between the two parties.

As soon as he turned his head, Yang Bo returned to Yangzhou with a smile!

Earn a lot of money!

He immediately dumped Huai salt at the price of one yuan and one citation to Ying Tianfu.

As the center of the south of the Yangtze River, the price of salt in Yingtian has come down, and other places can't keep it, Suzhou is basically the same as Yingtian, Huizhou, Anqing, Lu'an, these places are slightly more expensive.

As for Songjiang and Taizhou, it is even cheaper.

Even Yangzhou, the base camp of salt merchants, couldn't hold on.

The price of salt has plummeted.

Fold in half.

Those salt merchants who are still holding on, selling a pound and losing a pound, their cost can't be compared with Yang Bo at all, and those vampire leeches in the past are still there, no matter whether you make money or not, you must first honor these people, otherwise don't want to ship them out smoothly.

Until this moment, those representatives of Jin merchants, including the big salt merchants in Yangzhou, finally tasted the greatness.

A total of seven people, representing the entire salt merchants, begged Yang Bolai for mercy.

"Ask the eldest young master to see him, we have something to ask him!"

Yang Bo's entourage looked at them and sneered, "The first few days ago, when you saw the eldest young master, you still looked unconvinced, saying that you would lose both, and fight to the death!" Now you know, you're a bunch of jokes! Let me tell you, the eldest young master is not available! Your Majesty has to summon the eldest young master! ”

When these salt merchants heard this, their eyes turned black and they almost fainted...... What to do? Give up?

No!

This is the last way to survive, only kneel, wait for Yang Bo to come back, and wait for the last ray of life!

……

"Master, how do you see the disciple doing?" Yang Bo looked flattering.

Wang Yue snorted rarely, "It's not easy to keep up with the idea of being a teacher!" ”

Yang Bo patted his chest, "That's!" The fool ran away with those people all the way to the dark! ”

Wang Yue nodded, "Okay, you don't have to scratch the meat on your face." You should also understand the main purpose of being a teacher this time, right? ”

Yang Bo hurriedly bowed his head, "Master, the disciple has only recently figured it out, your old man is really clever in changing the salt method, implementing the silver dollar, reforming the currency value, and looting the wealth?" ”

"Ransack?" Wang Yue glared at him, "Who did I rob?" ”

Yang Bo hurriedly begged for mercy, "The disciple said wrong, wrong, how could the master loot the salt merchant!" Master is benevolent and righteous, and kind-hearted! ”

"Alright, don't be a sycophant." Wang Yue snorted: "What should I do now, you know it, right?" ”

"Clear! Disciple, let's arrange it! ”

Yang Bo covered his little heart and returned to his residence, as soon as he heard that the salt merchants in Yangzhou had come, the corners of his mouth turned up, come and beg me! Don't look at me telling Master that, but I won't be polite to you.

Even if it's a fellow villager in Shanxi, that's not good!

"All you have to do is hand over the gold and silver in your hands and exchange them for silver dollars, and that's it."

Yang Bo crossed Erlang's legs and said lightly.

The old man at the head raised his head and said softly, "That eldest son...... I've heard that the exchange of silver dollars in the market is for a premium, you see our ......."

Yang Bo instantly stood up his eyes, "What, you also want to pay a premium?" ”

"No, I don't want to! If you can redeem as much as you want, just as you can! ”

Yang Bo snorted, "What do you think!" Does it cost to mint silver dollars? You pay 20% of the fire consumption first! ”

Everyone's faces collapsed instantly, "Twenty percent, it's too much!" ”

"Many? Then you will get out of the salt industry completely, and I will take the money myself, which is good. ”

"Don't, the little ones agreed, they promised!"

Yang Bo said quietly: "Okay, but I think you must have a lot of property, and it's not safe to save so much money at home, so let the official bank account set up an account for you!" ”

These people looked at each other, their faces were green, and they didn't give cash! It's too dark, too!
