Chapter 9: A Thousand Pieces of Money

Ten catties of coarse salt can refine four catties of fine salt.

If what Cui Shaoqing said is true, it will definitely be able to set off a revolution in salt training.

As soon as Cheng Yanjin heard this, he couldn't help but want to try the secret recipe for refining fine salt.

However, before he could speak, he was stopped by Li Ji with a look.

The two of them are now businessmen who do business, so there is a reason to rashly ask for other people's secret recipes?

And, if they are willing to pay for the secret recipe, this Cui Shaoqing will have to open his mouth, but their court is short of money, if this Cui Shaoqing wants more, they may not be able to come up with this lot of money.

So this matter can't be mentioned, he Li Ji has his own calculations.

"I see, then Boss Cui is really good."

Li Ji said a word, and then ate the bowl of oily noodles like a storm.

He has also eaten a lot of delicacies from the mountains and seas and all kinds of pasta, but this bowl of oily noodles he thinks is particularly delicious, and after eating it, he can't forget it.

But now, they're down to business.

After finishing the meal, Cui Shaoqing said with a smile: "The two of you are here to buy food, I don't know how much you want, I have a total of 30,000 stone of grain here." ”

Li Jidao: "We want a lot of food, how much you want, how much we want, now it is the rainy season, Chang'an City is about to rain, we ask for this food, it can be regarded as a great help to you, this price, but it is cheaper." ”

Li Ji showed the current situation, if Cui Shaoqing didn't want the grain to be bad in the warehouse, he could only sell it to them cheaply.

Now it's business, and Li Ji won't care about their meal just now.

Cui Shaoqing smiled lightly and said: "What Boss Xu said makes sense, now in the rainy season of Chang'an, it is indeed not easy to store grain and grass, so how about I ask two hundred and fifty wen and one stone?" ”

Hearing this number, Cheng Yanjin's eyes immediately widened.

"Now the price of grain in Chang'an City is only one hundred yuan and one stone, we will help you now, you want so much, you don't want to do this business, right?"

Cheng Yanjin looks a little ugly, and when he speaks with wide eyes, he is a little hideous and scary.

Cui Shaoqing looked calm, and said: "The two of you want so much food at once, it must be urgently needed, so, I want this price is normal, it is reasonable, otherwise, if you go to buy so much grain in a scattered manner, it will be known to the entire Gyeonggi land, at that time, the price of grain will rise to what extent, but it is difficult to say, I guess two hundred wen and one stone may be reached, at that time, you are afraid that you will have to pay more money, and if you collect it loosely, I am afraid it will take a long time. You are in urgent need of food and grass, and I am afraid that you will not have so much time, and one hundred and fifty yuan and one stone are very reasonable. ”

Cui Shaoqing was not in a hurry at all, he decided to eat Cheng Yanjin and Li Ji.

And after he said this, Cheng Yanjin and Li Ji looked at each other, they were a little shocked by Cui Shaoqing's words, they thought that Cui Shaoqing was young and a scholar who had just entered the shopping mall, it was easy to trick him, but he never thought that Cui Shaoqing would speculate so much just because they wanted a lot of grain and grass.

They think that this Cui Shaoqing is not simple, this is simply a talent, why did he fail in the imperial examination?

The corners of Li Ji's mouth twitched slightly, if there was no refining method of fine salt, he might still make Cheng bite the blonde and force Cui Shaoqing to lower the price, but now, with the refining method, they are not easy to do.

Otherwise, Cui Shaoqing was angry and refused to tell the method of refining fine salt, wouldn't it be a bad thing for them?

"What Boss Cui said is very true, but one hundred and fifty wen a stone is indeed a little expensive, we are now nervous, we really can't come up with a lot of money, it is better to be cheaper, even if we owe Boss Cui a favor, we will have a good relationship in the future, and if we don't buy your food, although we will spend more money, but your grain and grass, I'm afraid it will be worse, rather than both sides are losing, it's better to win-win, what does Boss Cui think?"

Li Ji is a smart man, and he knows how to reduce some costs when he has to accept it.

He believes that if Cui Shaoqing is smart, he will definitely not want a lose-lose situation.

And after Li Ji finished saying this, Cui Shaoqing showed a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, and said: "What Boss Xu said is also reasonable, in this case, then we will each take a step back, and I will reduce you by twenty wen per stone of grain, and one hundred and thirty wen per stone of grain, how about it?" Anything less, I'm going to lose money. ”

The price of many grain purchases is less than 100 Wen, but there are also some that are purchased by 100 Wen, so plus transportation costs, storage labor costs, Cui Shaoqing's cost is not low, so 130 Wen is already his bottom line.

Li Ji and Cheng Biting Jin, after hearing this number, nodded their heads, they can still accept this, although it is only less than 20 wen per stone, but if it is 30,000 stones, it can still save a lot of money.

This Cui Shaoqing can be reduced so much at once, and he can be regarded as a bold person, and the two of them like such a bold person.

"When are you going to pull this grain away?"

Li Jidao: "If so much grain is pulled away with great fanfare, I am afraid it will cause panic in the market, and if we go to buy grain, I am afraid that others will increase the price, so we want to wait until it is dark and curfew, and then transport it away." ”

"I'm afraid I'm bad luck after this curfew, right?"

"It's okay, I have some friendship with Chen Gu, the county commander of this Wannian County, and I can let him help when the time comes, so it's okay to have a curfew."

As he spoke, Li Ji clapped his hands, and soon, several of his subordinates carried a few boxes in.

"This is 3,900 copper coins, in the next payment, after dark, I will bring someone to transport food, but I hope that Boss Cui will keep this matter secret, don't leak it, how about it?"

Li Ji and they are not afraid of what Cui Shaoqing will do, they are afraid that Cui Shaoqing will regret the price increase at that time, so now pay the money in a lump sum, and Cui Shaoqing will have nothing to say at that time.

Cui Shaoqing's side, smiled lightly, and said: "Boss Xu took out all the money, what else do I have to say, then it's a word, you come to transport the goods tonight, these grains and grass, only a lot more, if it is less than one or two, I will compensate you tenfold." ”

Li Ji bowed, and then wrote a contract with Cui Shaoqing, and then Li Ji and Cheng Yanjin left.

As soon as they left, Cui Shaoqing couldn't help but jump excitedly.

He purchased these grains, plus various costs, almost more than 2,000 yuan, and after he sold them in this way, he made more than 1,000 yuan.

More than 1,000 yuan, even in a place under the jurisdiction of Gyeonggi like Wannian County, it is a lot of money.

The entire Qin Ji grain store may not be able to make so much money for a year.
