Chapter 145: The Business War Begins
Zhang Ming: After they repaired, they went to find Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao.
Continuing north, this time there were no more Black Mountain Thieves.
Zhang Yan has been guarding carefully, and Zhang Ming has never come to harass him again.
After knowing that Zhang Ming had left, this Zhang Yan was a lot more relieved.
It's a real headache to face an enemy like this who doesn't know where to attack you.
All the way north, this time it went a lot smoother.
Zhang Ming and the others walked very slowly, and as soon as they left Qingzhou, the salted fish had already been transported to Xuzhou.
Salted fish was launched, and at the beginning, few people bought it at all.
Not many people bought it, and Xuzhou was not in a hurry, but continued to distribute the goods, and the salted fish from Liaodong continued to be shipped over.
To spread the whole of Xuzhou, a large amount of salted fish is needed, so it needs to be stocked up for a long time.
By the time Zhang Ming arrived in Youzhou, the entire process of distributing goods was basically completed.
From Liaodong, more than a dozen batches of salted fish were transported to Xuzhou.
Now, all counties in Xuzhou have places to buy salted fish.
It's just that in the early days, there wasn't much of a market, and few people bought it.
Xuzhou.
The pillar has been keeping an eye on how things are going.
When the reports from all over the country came up that the salted fish had completed the distribution, the operation was about to begin.
As soon as Zhang Ming arrived in Liaodong, he immediately sent 300 special forces, one person and three horses, to quickly gallop to Xuzhou, and they would arrive in Xuzhou in a few days.
The business war is about to begin, this is Zhang Ming's plan, a large-scale business war action.
"Have you heard, this salted fish is marinated with a lot of salt?"
"Salt is so expensive, someone actually uses it to get fish?"
"Buy the salted fish and put some salted fish when you cook it, you can use it as salt."
"This salted fish is cheaper, and it's more cost-effective than buying salt."
"Buy salted fish."
In just two days, the counties of Xuzhou suddenly became popular, and the people rushed to buy.
In many places, there were even scrambles.
The people bought the salted fish, and when they cooked, they put some salted fish, and it was really salty.
In this era, salt was very, very expensive, and many people could not afford to eat it at all.
Their salt has to be cooked by people, and they have to pay heavy taxes, which is naturally very expensive.
And Zhang Ming's salt is dried by the salt drying method, plus his non-payment of taxes, I don't know how many times cheaper.
The people all ran to buy salted fish, and the salt seller naturally became very deserted, and no one went to buy salt.
When those families who sold salt inquired, it was unbelievable that some people used salt to pickle salted fish.
Because I don't know how much more expensive salt is than salted fish, it's really not cost-effective.
There is no business, and these families are not in a hurry.
For several days in a row, this salted fish has not been sold out, as if it will continue to be sold.
Now these families are in a hurry.
They immediately went to find Tao Qian.
"Tao Gong, the recent salted fish turmoil has had a great impact, and there is news that Zhang Ming is completely making trouble."
"Yes, Tao Gong, what is going on with this Zhang Ming?"
"Tao Gong, this is Xuzhou, how dare he Zhang Ming mess around."
Many families came to find Tao Qian together, Tao Qian had just taken office, his position was unstable, he pressed his hand, and then said: "I think this matter is not sustainable." ”
"Salt is so expensive, counting it, Zhang Ming is completely operating at a loss, how much money does he have? In the whole of Xuzhou, I am afraid that after selling it for a few days, his Zhang Ming's money will be consumed, so it is better to wait and see. ”
Those families immediately agreed, in fact, they all knew this truth, these people only came to put pressure on Tao Qian.
Zhang Ming was provoked by Tao Qian, and if there is any problem in the future, Tao Qian must also come forward to solve it.
After these families left, they did not disperse in a hurry, but went to the Tanglin Restaurant.
"I have a proposal, this salted fish can be used as salt, but the price is cheap, far cheaper than we buy or produce it ourselves by the sea, it is better for us to join hands to hoard, and when Zhang Ming is out of stock, we will sell it at a higher price."
"Good idea."
"It's totally okay, he is angry with Tao Tingshi, and we benefit."
Everyone soon reached a consensus to hoard salted fish.
However, what they didn't know was that the salted fish from Liaodong were being transported in a steady stream, and they were not afraid of hoarding them at all.
And Zhang Ming had already thought of it, if you want to hoard, you can increase the price.
Salted fish implements a purchase restriction policy, you can only buy five at a time, and if you exceed five, you will increase the price, and the more you exceed, the more you will increase the price.
If you want to buy these families, you need to spend some more money.
However, after the price increase, it is also cheaper than table salt.
Xuzhou, the salted fish turmoil, the trouble was very fierce, but neither the family nor Tao Qian attacked Zhang Ming's salted fish, because logically, it would not last for a few days.
Both the family and Tao Qian are counting the days to see when Zhang Ming will go bankrupt.
These families began to arrange for people to buy.
But the purchase restriction is really troublesome, and he has to arrange for many people to buy it.
Even, they sent people to drive the people away, they occupied, but it was useless.
They didn't dare to force it to buy, because Zhang Ming was Liaodong Taishou after all, and superficial things still had to be done.
So the price began to increase, more than five salted fish, the price increase of one percent, you can buy fifty more.
The Maison began to arrange a large number of people to stock up on goods.
At this time, Zhang Ming played mahjong in Liaodong Orthodox Da Qiao, Xiao Qiao, Zhang Ning and Cai Yan.
originally wanted one more person to play mahjong, but it turned out that there were two more people, so Zhang Ming had no status.
What's funny is that Zhang Ming and the others have just entered Liaodong, and Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao don't believe that Zhang Ming is really Liaodong Taishou.
It wasn't until a few days later that they accepted.
Qiao Xuan was happy and helpless after knowing it.
The two daughters don't have to marry thieves, but they have to be concubines.
He didn't understand, Zhang Ming, as a Taishou, didn't he want to lose face? dared to rob his two daughters directly.
Settled down in Liaodong.
And Zhang Ming also has to start dealing with government affairs.
There are three big things.
First, it is natural that the football match is about to start, which is related to the tax issue of the entire Youzhou, which has been concerned.
Second, the big ships have been built and have already begun to sail in the sea, and after more than a year of shipbuilding, several ships have been built at a time.
Third, it is the business war against Xuzhou, Zhang Ming predicts that it has reached the second stage, according to his estimate, in a few days, these families will find that they can't hold on, and then it's time to use knives against each other.
Zhang Ming and Da Qiao, Xiao Qiao, Cai Yan and Zhang Ning were tired of being crooked for two days, and then in the Taishou Mansion, Tian Feng and Xi Zhicai were called.
"Yuan Hao, Zhicai, there are two Lao in Liaodong recently."
"The lord is harder."
To put it simply, Zhang Ming said: "Zhicai, I want you to go to Xuzhou secretly." ”
"My lord's command."
Zhang Ming nodded, personally poured a cup of tea for Xi Zhicai, and said: "I should have been there in person for this matter, but the football match is imminent, and the taxes in Youzhou are equally important, so I will wait for the matter in Liaodong to be solved before going to Xuzhou." ”
Things in Xuzhou are very complicated, and sometimes someone needs to deal with them decisively.
