Dong Zhuo was silenced by what Ye Chen said, he didn't know what to do, he wanted to make money on behalf of Du Kangjiu, but his capital was not enough, he wanted to empty the gloves of the white wolf, but Ye Chen was obviously not afraid of him.

"General Dong, there is a proposal that can be solved, and General Dong can also make huge profits." Seeing Dong Zhuo speechless, Ye Chen was amused in his heart, but if it was a business, Ye Chen was still very willing to cooperate with him.

"Oh, I don't know what the proposal is." Dong Zhuo was worried, where did the money come from, so as soon as Ye Chen said it, his eyes lit up and he said.

"It's very simple, my Ye family still has a product that can be sold and make a lot of money, and when the time comes, I will cooperate with you, and you will be rich when you sell it."

"You mean paper? But after all, the amount of paper used is limited, how much money can be made? Dong Zhuo listened to Ye Chen's proposal and immediately said with little interest.

Ye Chen's famous products are Du Kang wine and paper, and although the rest of the business is also very profitable, it is not exclusive after all, so it is not very famous.

"General Dong, do you want unrelated people to go out?" Ye Chen didn't explain immediately, but looked at some people next to him and said.

Dong Zhuo was puzzled, could it be that Ye Chen really had something else? However, although he was puzzled, he still asked those pro-soldiers to go out, leaving only two generals around him, Ye Chen didn't know who they were, but Dong Zhuo asked them to stay, and Li Ru was there at the same time.

After Dong Zhuo let the unrelated personnel out, he said: "General Ye, now this is all your own people, you can say it." ”

"General Dong, what I want to cooperate with you is table salt." Ye Chen said very confidently.

Dong Zhuo didn't have an excited expression when he heard this, but a deep thought, he couldn't think of any huge profits from salt. Of course, he must know that salt is profitable, but he doesn't think that cooperating with the Ye family can make any huge profits.

Dong Zhuo didn't say, Li Ru on the side said first: "Hehe, General Ye said that he laughed, Liaodong is thousands of miles away from Liangzhou, can you compete with Sichuan salt when you transport it?" ”

The Sichuan salt that Li Ru said is the well salt of Sichuan, Sichuan is very close to Liangzhou, and it has a favorable location, if other people go to Liangzhou to sell salt, they will definitely lose a lot, but Ye Chen will not, he has a lot of cheap salt, but because of local protection, there is no place to sell it.

Now that he has found Dong Zhuo's partner, he is selling a state of land, and the transaction volume must be very large, and Dong Zhuo is a barbarian with strong strength, he probably won't take care of the local salt dealers in Liangzhou for money, if they dare to obstruct Dong Zhuo, they will definitely be wiped out by Dong Zhuo.

"Don't worry too much about Wen Xiansheng, we can be responsible for transporting salt to the Hedong area, and the price is one percent lower than Sichuan salt, you see how it is." Ye Chen said with a smile, he believed that this condition was very tempting.

"Seriously!" Dong Zhuo's eyes widened regardless of his image.

Dong Zhuo was born in a wealthy family, of course, he is a person who knows the goods, how can he not know the benefits of salt, if he can monopolize the salt of a state, then it is not difficult to earn more than one billion yuan a year, and it is too important for Liangzhou, which has always been difficult and poor in terms of money and grain.

Ye Chen's conditions made them very excited.

"General Ye, I don't know what the quality of salt is?" Li Ru knew that this condition was too good, but he still had doubts, what kind of salt could be so cheap?

"The quality will only be many times better than the salt in the world, without any impurities, pure salt." Ye Chen threw out a bombshell news again.

Ye Chen's news did shock Dong Zhuo and Li Ru very much, if it is really according to what Ye Chen said, then the profit of a year is very huge, and salt can occupy an important position in the entire ancient history, it is not unreasonable, and it usually supports the vast majority of an empire's income.

"General Ye, I haven't heard of the Ye family buying and selling salt before, where does your salt come from, and why can it be so cheap." Li Ru was more rational, and after thinking about it, he asked Ye Chen.

"You also know how big the benefits of salt are, it's not that my Ye family doesn't want to sell it, but C doesn't want to get started, if you insist on squeezing in, you will definitely be rejected by all parties, my Ye family is not strong enough, and I really don't dare to get involved easily." Ye Chen said to Dong Zhuo and Li Ru.

The two of them felt very reasonable when they heard it, and they also knew that salt was very complex in various places, and it would touch the interests of too many people if they wanted to enter rashly.

Ye Chen then said, "As for why it's so cheap? It's very simple, our Ye family recruited displaced people in Liaodong before, with a total of more than 300,000 people, these people our Ye family will not feed in vain, most of them let them cook salt by the sea, so my Ye family has a lot of salt, and the salt can't be sold, so I will sell it to you so cheaply. ”

Although Dong Zhuo and the others knew that salt was profitable, they didn't understand the specific production process, and they didn't know how much salt was consumed, but what Ye Chen said was very reasonable, and they didn't doubt it, and they didn't need to doubt it, they just needed to care about how to cooperate.

Dong Zhuo and Li Ru believed Ye Chen's words, and they were not afraid that Ye Chen would deceive them, because there was no benefit at all, and they would not lose anything.

"Okay, General Ye, I can promise you, but I don't know how much salt you have, if you don't do it." Dong Zhuo was moved and wanted to eat this deal, so that he could have money and food to feed so many troops, and most of the soldiers and horses under his command were cavalry, and the consumption was too great.

"As long as you can afford it, you can have as much salt as you want."

It's not that Ye Chen boasted about Haikou, but that he really had, the Ye family had hoarded several warehouses of salt for such a long time, and the salt drying method was mature and could produce it in large quantities.

Dong Zhuo is moved, if he is not moved, he can't do it, Liangzhou alone can earn more than 2 billion yuan a year, which is a conservative estimate, plus he can also trade with the nomads on the grassland, so the profit will be greater.

The most important thing is that the Ye family has a large amount of salt, if it is less, then it is not cost-effective to risk offending many local scholars, if there can be a continuous supply of salt, then it is very cost-effective, even if it offends more people.

"Okay, I don't know when I'll be able to trade." Dong Zhuo agreed to Ye Chen for the sake of the big plan in his heart and in order to expand his strength.

"I will immediately suspend the letter, and it will be transported to the Hedong area in about 20 days, and you can pick it up there at that time, just pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other."

Li Ru waited for Ye Chen to speak and asked, "Why is it so fast?" ”

Liaodong to Hedong is not close, Ye Chen said that it can be reached in about twenty days, which makes Li Ru a little unconvinced.

"River transport." Ye Chen and they have a big boat, which enters the Yellow River from the Bohai Sea, and then can be transported directly to the east of the river, so it will be so fast.

Li Ru is a smart person and can understand it immediately, so the two sides have no doubts and can discuss specific cooperation matters.
