Chapter 7 Something Instead of Salt

Can you say these words calmly, when the other party has no backhand? Even if Shen Kuohai thought about it with his toes, he could think of it, and the result would definitely be negative!

Is it your former enemy? Or does that family want to get their hands on this Lingnan land?

Countless thoughts instantly filled his brain, and his brain immediately ran at a high speed, if he couldn't figure out these problems, then not only him, but even the entire Shen family was probably about to face the destruction of the family!

Zhang Yi paced and picked up the wine jar that Shen Kuohai had just opened, poured himself a bowl of wine, drank a small sip of wine, and then asked with some confusion: "Little brother is a little confused, mountain goods are not unique to Lingnan, there are actually a lot of these things in the mainland, it's just that they are a little thinner and the quality of their coat is lower!"

But the advantage is that the distance is short, and the income from your thousands of miles from Lingnan to Chang'an is probably not as good as the mainland! Besides, the land of Lingnan is unruly and unruly, and it is a place where the emperor is far away, if there is any mistake in the middle...... Hehe! ā€

Zhang Yi didn't continue, they are all smart people, and Shen Kuohai naturally knows the doorway. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Banditry, attrition, and the money of the officials of all sides..... All of this adds up to a huge number!

It's just that the mainland is so easy to mix?

But if there is a good business that can make money, is that business not controlled by the family and the nouveau riche? If the Shen family had a stable place to do business, why would he, Shen Kuohai, risk his life to come to this barren land?

Shen Kuohai found that he was speechless, could it be that he said that it was you people who occupied the four wild disasters and came to this deep mountain and wild forest?

Naturally, this could not be said, so the entire lobby fell silent, except for the violent snoring of the old bell, there was silence around it, and even the sound of those Baiyue people outside the courtyard dealing with mountain goods could be heard.

Seeing that Shen Kuohai no longer spoke, Zhang Yi continued: "Even if you have your own hardships and have to come down to this Lingnan land to look for business opportunities, but I found that Brother Shen's series of actions are so similar to the old things that bought and returned the pearls, I think it shouldn't be your way to go to Baoshan empty-handed!" ā€

As soon as Zhang Yi finished speaking, Shen Kuohai's eyes, which were squinted in a straight line, quickly turned.

If he still doesn't understand that Zhang Yi wants to cooperate with him, his business for so many years can be regarded as a dog.

It's just that he doesn't understand, is it possible that there is something more valuable than mountain goods in the land of Lingnan?

Is it a banana all over the ground or an elephant flapping its ass with its tail and wandering around? Or is it a monkey that spends all over the mountains and throws wild fruits when he sees people?

After thinking about it for a long time, he really couldn't think of anything in this vast land that was more expensive than mountain goods! If anything, he is even willing to accept all the unequal conditions that are coming, as long as the income is higher than that of mountain goods, then it can be negotiated.

"Please also ask Brother Zhang to teach me!" Shen Kuohai stood up straight, first tidied up his clothes, and then walked in front of Zhang Yi, holding his hands in his chest at 80 degrees, bending his thumb down, and bowing deeply with his entire upper body in an indescribable arc.

The etiquette was flawless, even perfect to the point that it couldn't be more perfect, and judging from his slightly distorted face, Zhang Yi knew that this guy was afraid that this move was not as easy as he appeared.

Now that people are no longer ashamed to ask, as a future partner, Zhang Yi naturally can't put on a score anymore, so he smiled slightly and hurriedly stretched out his hands to firmly support Shen Kuohai's two arms so that they couldn't lean down anymore, and he was even thinking that if he didn't step forward, would this guy come to a vicious dog to pounce?

Of course, this is just a thought, and after laboriously straightening Shen Kuohai, Zhang Yi asked: "Brother Shen, you are also a big businessman, what goods do you think are the most profitable in my Datang land?" ā€

"Naturally, it's a salt and iron trade!" There was no need to think about it, and Shen Kuohai immediately gave the answer.

However, although salt and iron make money, in fact, except for those top tycoons, everyone else is simply sticky and who dies!

Salt is the foundation of the people, and it goes without saying much, this thing is indispensable to all people!

As a raw material for weapons, iron is an important strategic material of the country, because of the uniqueness of this technology, which is also one of the important reasons why the Han people have always been able to occupy the Central Plains!

But whether it is salt or iron, both can be described as the reverse scales of Datang, and it is impossible to mix them in!

Of course, in fact, in addition to salt and iron, there is also grain! However, although the food is always not enough to eat and the demand is also large, but if you want to pay attention to it, no one really dares, and if you are not careful, the people will be resentful, and even the princes and ministers will inevitably be stabbed at the entrance of the vegetable market.

Shen Kuohai didn't understand, could it be that Zhang Yi wanted to do salt and iron business?

As soon as he thought of the vast sea, he focused his attention on Zhang Yi's face.

If Zhang Yi really has such an idea, then he thinks that it must be salt, but the salt made from seawater cannot be eaten directly, because seawater is not only bitter but also poisonous, and people can't help but turn purple after eating it, and they will have diarrhea, and if it is used excessively, it will even be life-threatening immediately.

Thinking of this, Shen Kuohai felt a chill in his heart, if Zhang Yi really planned to boil such salt in Lingnan and sell it, I am afraid that he would not have much choice, but when he thought of the heads of hundreds of people in the Shen family, he sighed in his heart.

It's a blessing or a curse, it's a curse that can't be avoided!

It is obvious that the other party has already set his eyes on himself, and he is still smart and wants to seek benefits from the other party......

"Childe, are you planning to do a salt business?" Shen Kuohai asked with difficulty, as for the title of his brother, he didn't dare to shout, who knew if this seemingly weak young man was the son of that family?

"Sea salt is poisonous!" Zhang Yi seemed to understand Shen Kuohai's thoughts very well, and said with a smile: "I think Brother Shen is probably misunderstanding Zhang Yi!" ā€

"That's?" Shen Kuohai only felt like he was riding a roller coaster, and in less than a quarter of an hour, he was careful that his liver kept repeating and repeatedly, and he was about to fall to the limit of what he could bear.

"Sea salt is poisonous, but seafood is not, for example, the sea crab we eat is very delicious!" Zhang Yi explained: "For example, the fish meat in the sea actually contains a lot of edible salt, if such a pound of dried fish is dried, do you think they will go crazy for places like Longyou or Hanzhong, which lack salt?" ā€

Suddenly, Shen Kuohai's eyes lit up!

Dried marine fish is not a substitute for salt, but it is definitely a good substitute! He has tasted this kind of food more than once in Lingnan over the years, and the taste is very bad, and there is always a strong fishy smell in the salty taste, but I have to say that this thing is indeed much better than vinegar cloth.

It's just that the Baiyue people are not good at fishing, and it is difficult to form a scale of fishing, and many tribes do not do business with businessmen like them at all, so even if Zhang Yi's idea is good, it is difficult to really implement it. He didn't think that the dried fish produced in this place could meet the consumption of even a county town, it was too little, and it was not enough to even plug his teeth!
