Chapter 131: A Plan to Make a Fortune

Almighty Cultivation Supreme

As soon as Wang Zheng entered the magnetic kiln, he looked around, but the first thing he saw was some colorful and gorgeous large vases, and he frowned and glanced back at the shopkeeper Peng.

Shopkeeper Peng also understood what Wang Zheng meant, shouted that the helpers in the magnetic kiln should get out of the way, and led Wang Zheng to the innermost part and picked up a small celadon jar.

Wang Zheng is not afraid of getting dirty, he stretched out his hand and took it, this porcelain jar is not heavy, even if it is a person with a little less strength, it will not be difficult to hold it.

The workmanship of this small porcelain jar is very rough, and at the request of Wang Zheng, the color is made old, which looks inconspicuous at all, and is constantly nodding at the moment.

Shopkeeper Peng bent down and smiled: "My lord is still satisfied, this is all done according to your requirements, but it took a few hours." ”

Suddenly, Shopkeeper Peng reacted, slapped his mouth, and said with a smile:

"General, the general forgives the sin, this... I used to be used to the calls of adults, but suddenly I changed my words..."

"Don't worry, give the rest of the silver to the shopkeeper, and my king will talk about it!"

Wang Zheng waved his hand generously, and the shopkeeper Peng kowtowed again and again, but his eyes were always staring out, and sure enough, a soldier came over with a small wooden box and put it on the ground.

Seeing the surprised and happy appearance of the shopkeeper Peng, Wang Zheng smiled and said:

"Shopkeeper, do you want to count them?"

As soon as the shopkeeper Peng opened the wooden box, he couldn't open his eyes, it was the first time in his life that he had seen so much silver, and he picked up one and was about to count it, but he heard Wang Zheng ask with a smile on his face.

At the moment, a cold sweat broke out, so he quickly closed the wooden box, bent over and said in a low voice:

"No, there's no need, how can the general deceive the villain, it's not too late to count later."

On weekdays, the soldiers have to drill, rest and rotate on duty, so now this kind of physical work is handed over to the salt Ding to do, Wang Zheng gave an order, the salt Ding rushed in, and packed the porcelain jars and wooden boxes into the large wooden boxes that had been prepared long ago and transported them back to the treasury.

"Handle with care!"

"Be careful, this is all for the general!"

Originally, Wang Zheng thought that the high sales of Ninghai salt were the reason why these salt lords and salt merchants showed goodwill, but more than two months have passed, and the sales are still very good, which shows the problem, Ninghai salt should be good?

Before deciding to circulate Ninghai salt outside the boundaries of Dengzhou Prefecture, Wang Zheng personally went to the warehouse to inspect it, and found that the refined salt in his salt field looked to be powdery, fine, and white, and it looked very good.

Later, Wang Zheng called Fan Ruohai to inquire again, and only then did he know that Ning Haiyan's selling method was actually a loss.

Fan Ruohai bluntly said that in fact, he did not expect that the refined salt made in the salt farms around the country would be of such high quality, which is comparable to the famous refined salt varieties such as Lu salt and Huai salt in the Central Plains.

Because it turns out that everyone is risking their lives when making salt, and they are all doing work that may lose their heads at any time, and the focus is on quantity, and there is no quality under the rush.

Now that Wang Zheng is in control of the salt road, Yanding is no longer a threat, the territory is clear, the water bandits and bandits are empty, and there is not even a thief on weekdays.

In addition, Wang Zheng's treatment of his subordinates has always been good, and the safety and quality of life have improved, and these people must be fully committed to making salt.

Not to mention anything else, even the rough sea salt, produced in Ninghaizhou is of higher quality than Laizhou and other places, and there are fewer and fewer magazine particles, so it is not surprising that Ninghai refined salt can have this effect.

Wang Zheng has been looking at the newspapers and official documents in various places, firstly, as a news pastime, and secondly, to understand the current situation in various places.

Originally, refined salt was transported from Shaanxi, Qinghai and other places, but now a huge civil unrest has developed in those places, and the officers and soldiers have been beaten to the ground.

The salt road and trade routes were blocked, not to mention the green salt that had been out of stock in Shandong, and it was difficult to transport even ordinary refined salt such as Lu salt and Huaihai.

Nowadays, the price of green salt is sky-high, and the general refined salt has also increased several times.

For a long time, green salt has the effects of saltiness, cold, coolness, blood, and bright eyes, but in the Ming Dynasty, the biggest role of green salt is not used to make vegetable seasoning, but to rinse the mouth and clear the teeth.

Ordinary wealthy people generally use green salt to rinse their mouths in the morning, so for these people, green salt is indispensable.

It is difficult for the local rich and noble families in Shandong to see the shadow of green salt, and even the ordinary refined salt can be transported safely and less, and the price is getting higher and higher.

It is conceivable that under such circumstances, if a large quantity of refined salt of high quality such as Ninghai salt can enter the market, and it can be sold for at least three or four taels of silver per load, it will definitely not be a problem.

Wang Zheng still has a batch of pure green salt in his hand, and he is not ready to sell it at this time, because it will not achieve the maximum profit, and it will be sold too quickly.

The main selling group is those rich and noble, if you follow the modern business routine, as long as the same thing is on the packaging, the price can often be raised a lot, and these people are willing to buy.

Therefore, Wang Zheng knocked these green salts into the porcelain jars in batches and sold them at the price of each jar, and the last green salt in Shandong, plus this antique porcelain jar, the price will definitely be noisy to the sky.

Obviously, this will be a huge profit, and Wang Zheng does not intend to let it go.

Similarly, just in Dengzhou Mansion, at the price of a few taels of silver per load, the income is enough to support the training of more than 1,000 recruits.

After all, the amount of green salt is not much, and the origin is too far away, it is impossible to make green salt with good texture in Ninghai, and it can only be used for a while, so we must also think of a way to do it once and for all.

It is foreseeable that as soon as the green salt comes out, it will surely cause a sensation in the major salt lords and salt merchants in Shandong.

According to Wang Zheng, this is just paving the way for Ninghai salt to enter Jining and other places, and it is the first step in the plan to monopolize the refined salt market in Shandong.

Wang Zheng planned to pack Ninghai salt into these beautiful little boxes and sell them at the same price per box.

In the long run, the income is even ten times that of green salt, and if you can successfully monopolize the market, the price can be raised again!

Fan Ruohai reminded Wang Zheng that in order to achieve this goal, the production method of Ninghai salt must only be known by ourselves.

If it is learned by others, it will not be long before the whole of Shandong is refined salt, and the price will not be able to sell it.

This sounded a wake-up call for Wang Zheng, just like modern scientific and technological means, which naturally must be kept strictly secret and cannot be obtained by others.

Not long after, Wang Zheng, the general of the sea cucumber stationed in Ninghai, ordered that the small salt farms in various places stopped producing Ninghai salt, and only a few large salt farms in Chishan, Yangma Island, and Hot Spring Town could continue to produce.

Followed by the Yanding Brigade of the descendant lineage, rushed to these areas, and in a few days, the checkpoints of the local Yanding were several times more than usual, and the Yanding Brigade was intertwined layer by layer, and the people who entered and exited the salt field were interrogated more carefully.

In this way, although the output of Ninghai salt is reduced by a few percent, the safety factor is greatly improved.

Under such strict precautions, even if it is a nimble monkey, it can't avoid the pervasive inspection department Yanding.
