Chapter 421: Desertion
After the snow salt was actually on sale, those salt merchants pounced on them one by one like sharks smelling blood, and their enthusiasm was even higher than Lin Sen and their expectations.
Especially after they saw the actual snow salt, and saw the white grains of salt, these merchants rushed to the military Sima who was in charge of registering the quantity like chicken blood, and they couldn't wait for one guy to pull all the inventory away at once.
The look and the foodie saw the food, the pervert saw the beautiful woman were all the same, mixed with the shock of disbelief, and the surprise that the happiness came too suddenly, more eagerly than the eyes of the soldiers who seemed to see the white flowers and silver in the first place.
Even though Lin Sen set a relatively high price for these snow salts, and even almost caught up with the retail price of green salt in the market, it still couldn't stop their enthusiasm.
Considering that the snow salt is even better than the green salt, and the logistics network in Dengzhou can be called extended, they can use the lower transportation cost to transport the snow salt to major cities and sell it at a higher price than the green salt.
In other words, even if the cost increases, it is still profitable, and the profit is not low.
As the saying goes, someone does the business of killing heads, but no one does the business of losing money, and of course these salt merchants are so enthusiastic when they see the benefits.
These snow salts can not only be used as a new profit growth point, but also as their own fist products, driving the sales of their goods.
And when Lin Sen saw that snow salt was so popular, a stone fell to the ground in his heart.
He was also worried that his price was too high and that the sales momentum would be frustrated, so he would be doing something bad with good intentions. It seems that I still underestimate the charm of snow salt.
However, it is already the best situation to be able to become an instant hit, and to see the inventory being quickly wiped out, to see the arrival of orders, and to see the high-spirited smiling faces of those soldiers, Lin Sen feels that the efforts of this time have not been in vain.
It is expected that this industry will become a long-term cause as expected, and it will always benefit Dengzhou Wei.
Lin Sen on the kelp and seaweed side has been suspended, so that more people are aware of the effects of these things, and it will take some time to accumulate.
More people need to see that they have a real effect on big neck disease, and more famous doctors, such as Lin Sen and Sun Simiao, need to stand up and let everyone realize their benefits, so that more people are willing to pay the price for these things.
And it's hard to chew more, instead of a few things together, it may not be able to open the situation, it is better to focus on the snow salt that has the most market and is the easiest to build reputation and brand.
After consolidating the market, it may be more effective to rely on this to drive sales of kelp and seaweed.
Dengzhou Wei is full of energy to continue to produce sea salt, and the fleet over there has already embarked on the return journey, and is running back with a whole shipload of silver ore.
Even if Lin Sen's cover up is in place, he really wishes that they would come back as soon as possible, and he wants to take the opportunity to desert.
The people of the royal caravan here have already brought smelting equipment and settled in the Dengzhou Wei camp in advance, where they will conduct a preliminary refining of those silver ores.
At the same time, it is also good to judge how much development value these ores have. If everything is appropriate, the fleet will need to go back with some of the necessary equipment.
The speed of the Lin family's caravan was a little slower, their task of exploring along the way was relatively heavy, and on the surface, they were going for the purpose of making friends with various tribes, and they were basically warmly received all the time, and the delay was naturally longer.
Lin Sen also arranged more time for them, and after the people of the royal caravan took some silver ore samples, preliminarily completed the purified crude silver ingots, and the approximate data from the mine, the task of covering was completed.
The results brought back by the fleet naturally did not disappoint Lin Sen, and the silver ore that had been preliminarily smelted had already demonstrated its high value that could not be ignored. This was undoubtedly a big surprise for the entire fleet.
The taste of those silver ores is quite high, and the mining value of the silver mountain is even higher, so I didn't say anything, let's do it.
Now the fleet is going to be busy, after handing over all the samples and data to the people of the royal caravan to take away, here is pulling the smelting equipment, as well as the guards and materials that were stationed in the past, and they have to go to the country again, which can be regarded as a real transport team and a simple cargo ship.
Do you still have to do a good job of secrecy over there, if you don't have enough armed forces, it will definitely not work, although there is no guarantee to fight against the large armed forces on the side of the Japanese country, after all, across an ocean, the number of troops that can be transported over is still limited, and you have to take into account the logistical pressure, but it is enough to keep the secret of the mine for the time being.
The fleet that had returned from the Wa Kingdom again simply went to contact the one-eyed pirate leader and brought all the stocks they had to Iwami Ginzan.
As for how they deal with each other, Lin Sen doesn't care, as long as there is no fight, the transaction goes smoothly, and he, the middleman who matches the bridge, does not need to sit on wax.
With enough miners, guards and smelting equipment, that side can be on the right track.
Of course, Lin Sen's side did not completely put aside the matter of training his subordinates because of Haiyan.
If these soldiers do not give their strength, and take with them more money earned by snow salt, it will be harmful to them, and it is easy for others to worry about it, and the means may not be so gentle.
And they lost their jobs and only cared about making money, and they didn't care about the whole system. Is it also contrary to his original intention?
He wanted to better subdue the hearts of his subordinates, and at the same time cover the output of Yinshan to land in Datang, but he didn't just come here to make money.
It is impossible for this Dengzhou Wei to always be in his hands, and the interests of the salt field naturally cannot be touched by him all the time.
Do a good job in the current job, but the benefits are likely to be for a lifetime, and the key to improving the title or position lies in how well he completes this task.
Finally, the first batch of silver ingots was finally produced on the side of Iwami Ginshan, and with the transportation of the fleet, they successfully arrived at the territory of Dengzhouwei.
And the Lin family's caravan also brought an unusually rich amount of goods, as well as a lot of gifts from the major tribes, well, they are all symbols of friendship, and they are also coming back slowly.
Of course, there was also all kinds of information that came back with them. Lin Sen also stuffed a few students from his own school into it, recording city defense, troops, these things are very good, and he also has a hand in analyzing intelligence, so the harvest is very much.
Lin Sen couldn't wait to follow the caravan, and simply prepared to go back to Chang'an to visit relatives, although it was under the guise of guarding those silver ingots, at least that's what Zhu Di said in Dengzhou, in fact, it wasn't just that he was worried about Cheng Huaiyu's mother and son, who should have given birth now.
has completely discovered that Iwami Silver Mountain has such a big credit, and there is a reason for being so-so, of course Lin Sen has to take advantage of it.
Moreover, the so-called "big mistakes do not make small mistakes" is not only a kind of attitude towards things, but also a kind of political wisdom of being a clever courtier.
It is obvious that we have sold a flaw to the emperor, we just value our family more than any state affairs.
Anyway, when we go out to do things, our family always has to stay in Chang'an, under the emperor's nose, no matter how strong the strength we have, the emperor still has to be afraid that he can't handle it.
