Chapter 165 Production and Sales

Fortunately, Li Xin didn't really announce it! After all, holding these things in their hands is a big deterrent for these people, but once it is announced, the effect is not so great.

"Forget it, this thing is still not released! Since so many people agree, it would be redundant to do this again! You say no! Li Xin put away the stack of lists and said to the people below.

"Yes, yes, yes!" Everyone below couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and responded in unison.

"Okay, since most of the people agree to this matter, let's talk about the specific implementation plan now!" Li Xin nodded, and after a pause, he said, "Lu Kun, Lin Hu, Tian Wanshan!" ”

"The grass people are here!" The three of them were watching from the crowd, and they were much calmer than the others. At this time, he heard Li Xin suddenly call his name, and hurriedly stood up to answer.

The three of them were not well-known among the salt and iron merchants, so they didn't know many people. This is mainly due to the fact that the place in Yiju County is under the control of Sang Lun all year round! The share of the salt pond of the three of them has been greatly reduced, so there is no sense of existence in this market at all. Many salt merchants in Hedong County pulled out one at random, but they were afraid that they were all more powerful than them.

Therefore, when the three of them were named, everyone couldn't help but be curious, and all their eyes converged on the three of them. Lu Kun and they don't have the ability of Li Xin, and they can still keep their faces unchanged and calm under the attention of everyone. So, at the moment, I feel as if I am on a fire, and I become cramped and uneasy.

"The three of you have been in Yiju County for many years, and this time you helped General Ben to take Yiju County, which is a great achievement. Although it is said that Yanchi has been taken back to the government, there is still a reward to be had! From today on, the salt in Yiju County will be bought and sold by the three of you! As for where you sell it, I don't care, but you must not disobey the orders of the Huashan Army! You get the idea! Li Xin said lightly.

The three people who were originally uneasy couldn't help but be stunned when they heard this at this time! But then they reacted, and that was a good thing for them!

Although he no longer controls the salt pond and no longer produces salt, as long as he can get the right to sell salt, he can still make a lot of money!

Originally, I thought that there would be nothing from now on, and the three people who could only find another way out, couldn't help but be happy in their hearts at this time, and only felt that this happiness came too quickly. With Li Xin's words, isn't it equivalent to the three of them getting the arrow? In the future, it will be much more convenient to do business in Guanzhong.

"Thank you for the grace of the general, the villain understands, he must not dare to disobey the general's order, and he must let the people of Guanzhong eat salt!" After reacting, the three of them quickly knelt down and thanked them.

"Get up!" Li Xin bowed slightly and said.

The three of them listened, quickly stood up, and then returned to their seats.

However, the three of them were completely relieved, but the salt and iron merchants next to them had different expressions. At this time, everyone began to vaguely understand what Li Xin wanted to do.

"General, General Qiyu, the little one is willing to hand over all the salt pools in his hands to the Huashan Army without charging a penny!" There was a nimble little salt merchant, and when he saw this situation, his heart moved, and he hurriedly ran out from behind the table, knelt on the ground, and shouted.

"You are Tyumen, Hedong Salt Trade Road!" Li Xin glanced at him, then at Tu Qi beside him, and then said.

"Yes, yes, the villain is Lu Qiuming, and please ask the general to agree to the little one!" Lu Qiuming hurriedly said.

"Well, it's rare that you have such a mind. Well, for your sake, I promise you! So be it! You can also enjoy the conditions that Lu Kun and them enjoyed just now, and in the future, part of the salt from Hedong will be handed over to you to sell. But in the same way, I guess I don't need to say it a second time, right? Li Xin said lightly.

"The small one understands, the little one must obey the orders of the Huashan Army and act according to the general's orders!" Lu Qiuming said with great joy.

At this time, everyone completely understood that although Li Xin took back everyone's right to produce salt and iron, he did not take back the right to sell.

In other words, you can still be your own salt and iron merchant, but you no longer produce and sell by yourself.

Although there are some risks in this way, for example, the source of the product is pinched in the hands of Huashan Army. But after experiencing the previous fright, there is such a choice at this time, it is simply a big cake falling from the sky!

These people were originally self-producing and selling, and in many cases, they usually sold the salt produced in their small salt ponds to other large salt merchants, who in turn sold them further afield.

Therefore, for many small and medium-sized salt merchants, this approach does not seem to be different from before.

But this kind of approach, obviously some people will be unhappy! Among them, the most influential ones are naturally Wang Yun and their four major families. These four families not only produce their own salt, but also ship it for sale in large quantities. Li Xin suddenly came to such a hand, which was tantamount to taking a salary from them.

Others don't seem to have changed much, but the blow to their four major families is different.

Therefore, at this moment, the four of them all felt the deep crisis they were facing, but they could not do anything about it! Because the other salt and iron merchants beside him were also moved after seeing that Lu Qiuming had also received benefits.

"General, general, I am also willing to offer the salt pond and obey the general's order!"

"General, we are all willing to obey the order and support the Yantie official camp!"

A group of small and medium-sized salt and iron merchants left their seats one after another at this time, ran to the middle and knelt on the ground, shouting in unison. At the moment, the people who are still sitting on both sides are only those who are extremely rich in the family.

"I can't believe that you are so supportive of General Ben! Anyway, for the sake of everyone's earnestness, General Ben reluctantly agreed! However, there are some things that General Ben still has to say first. Otherwise, if you commit any crime in the future, don't be unprepared! Li Xin saw the appearance of everyone below, and his heart was settled, but after pretending to be embarrassed, he sighed.

"General, please make it clear!" Everyone couldn't help but be stunned, and then shouted.

"The salt and iron official camp refers to the mining of salt ponds and iron ore, all of which are owned by the government. But the sale of salt and the striking of iron will be left to you. Of course, there are some rules here. For example, if you produce a total of 100 koku of salt every year, then everyone gets a different share! But the total amount is only so much, so some people have to take it, and some people naturally don't have to take it! Do you agree? Li Xin looked at the people with eager expressions and said slowly.

"Of course, of course, I understand!" After a little thought, everyone understood the meaning.

Obviously, whether it is salt or iron, the total amount is controlled by the Huashan army. And if everyone wants to get more salt and iron, it naturally depends on the relationship between this person and Huashan Army! The more loyal they are to the Huashan Army, the more they support the Huashan Army, and the more they can get without thinking about it.

At this time, everyone suddenly thought of the previous list. I was worried that it was a talisman, but now it seems that this seems to be evidence of my support for the Huashan Army.

Many people who chose to agree before couldn't help but feel a little proud at this time.

"Every season, you come to me to receive salt and iron tickets, and then you go to the salt ponds and iron smelting places to get salt and iron with the tickets. I have to say here that you have to exchange the salt ticket and the iron ticket, you have to exchange it for food! After all, there's no money in circulation right now, you know! I don't care where you sell this salt, but first of all, you must give priority to supplying the land east of the Guanzhong River, and at the same time, the price must not be too high, if it causes the people to be unable to afford salt, I have to ask! Nodding, Li Xin continued.

Hearing this, everyone was silent for a moment, and soon figured it out. Salt and iron can't be taken for nothing, there is no problem with this, they started in business, and naturally understand this truth.

Although it is said that the price of salt and iron in Guanzhong cannot be too high, but the world is so big, it is enough to earn less in Guanzhong and more in other places.

So, it's not too difficult for everyone. Overall, it's as if they're doing business with Huashan. And for them, doing business is naturally the best, as businessmen, they naturally like to talk about business.

"There is no problem with this, we must take care of the people's livelihood under the rule of the Huashan Army first!" The people answered.

"Hmmm! The point here is that iron is a thing, and the iron smelter can make his own things, but everything must have its own marking. At the same time, from today onwards, all iron tools under the rule of the Huashan Army are not allowed to flow out of the Guanwai, especially to the land of Longxi. If the iron smelters have created high-quality armor and developed new weapons of interest, the Huashan Army will purchase them from them. Do the iron smelting firms understand this? After Li Xin paused, he took out the iron and said.

Iron is too much to do, so whether it is production or sales, Li Xin does not intend to break away from his own control. From the point of view of the iron smelting merchants, the purchase of the Huashan Army should be regarded as a big pie drawn by Li Xin for them, or a compensation for the confiscation of their iron ore.

"The grass people and others understand that they must obey the general's orders!" More than a dozen iron-smelting firms hurriedly answered.

"Finally, one last point, you have to pay special attention! Whether it is salt or iron, who dares to cheat on the quality and shoddy. If you find it once, you will inevitably be punished heavily, and you may be deprived of the right to operate, and in serious cases, you can be punished with death! Remember that! At the end, Li Xin said in a deep voice.
