The Li family didn't come, which made Li Dingfang a little depressed, he didn't know what the Li family was thinking, although he didn't know much about business, but he could still see the huge profits in it, which was by no means inferior to the kind of glass business, because that kind of glass cup has limitations, almost a one-time product, and this sweet potato is a consumable, which can be sold all the time.

He didn't understand, so he didn't need to understand either, because he had already decided to hand over the matter to the Tian family.

The Li family is just the most suitable choice in his heart, but it is not the only one, and the Tian family can naturally do it.

Maybe it was because of the dumb loss in the confrontation with the Li family last time, this time the Tian family was extremely urgent, they were not short of money, and they didn't lose much money last time, but the market share of the business was taken away by the Li family is a great loss, which is extremely unfavorable to the future development of the Tian family.

The price they offered Li Dingfang was three taels of silver and one stone at first, and Li Dingfang felt that it might be worth totaling.

Sweet potatoes are not difficult to grow, and the growing conditions are not harsh, or even very simple. Extremely drought resistant.

However, when Xu Guangqi introduced sweet potatoes at that time, he did not have a detailed annotation, perhaps he himself was not very clear, so a situation was created, that is, many sweet potatoes were planted, and half of them could not germinate, plus they did not know how to apply appropriate fertilizer, and did not remove the top advantage to increase yield, and the survival rate can be imagined.

But Rao is so, the yield of a mu of sweet potatoes can also reach nearly ten stones, more than the yield of rice and wheat per mu in the harvest year, it is also very rare, and the taste is excellent, and you can earn a lot at will, but it has formed a vicious circle, the price of sweet potatoes is high, and it may be able to germinate if you plant it, so the people choose to sell most of it, leaving only a small part to continue planting.

This situation was only solved during the Kangxi period, and people were sent to study the growth law of this crop, and the method of selecting seeds was obtained, which greatly improved the germination rate and achieved the prosperity of Kangqian.

Three taels and one stone is almost the price of sweet potatoes in the past, but with such a large amount of sweet potatoes, the Tian family can also offer this price, which is indeed very sincere.

Li Dingfang felt that it was better to use the method of revenue sharing, so that the profit would be more, but Ning Zhiyuan asked him to get rid of it as soon as possible and not to involve too much.

This is another very depressing thing.

When he and Ning Zhiyuan talked about the disposal of sweet potatoes, Ning Daguan said that everything was up to him, leaving tens of thousands of stone seeds, and the rest could be taken off as soon as possible.

The Li family was just Li Dingfang's own choice, and it had nothing to do with Ning Zhiyuan, which had already made him depressed once.

The final result was that 250,000 stone of sweet potatoes were sold for 700,000 taels and sold to the Tian family, or rather, many merchants led by the Tian family.

When Li Jinshi heard the news, his face was as usual, and what he had to do was still going on, and it didn't seem to have anything to do with her. It's just that I feel sorry in my heart.

The Tian family and Li Dingfang have been entangled about that matter for a long time, and her intuition made her guess that the other party might want to cooperate with the Li family, for the sake of her future husband's face, but she can't do this, some things are like this.

Since the last time the Tian family fired porcelain was dug up, and the Li family Buzhuang had an absolute advantage in the counterattack against the Tian family, although the Tian family swallowed his anger for a while, the action secretly was not small, among which the joint Jiangsu and Zhejiang merchants were very important.

Well, Li Jin didn't think much of this, the heavy profits of businessmen have not changed for thousands of years since ancient times, so he didn't violate the bottom line of others, and those businessmen would join forces to attack the Li family when their brains were in water, and they were hard and not necessarily pleased.

But Ning Zhiyuan planted so many sweet potatoes, which really surprised her.

With the Li family, they would never buy so many sweet potatoes alone, it is good that there are huge benefits in it, but there is also a big crisis.

The matter of grain has always been the top priority, the yield of such an abnormal sweet potato, it is difficult not to attract the attention of the saint and the imperial court, if the Li family takes it alone, it will be the target of the public, and the guilt is guilty, the Tian family is smart enough and actually coincidental enough, and has gathered many scattered businessmen in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, this problem may not be big.

These businessmen are the link between Jiangsu and Zhejiang and the outside world, and the imperial court can deal with three or two, if they are all targeted, Jiangsu and Zhejiang will be chaotic.

It is good that a businessman has a low status, but it is very important.

But Li Jinshi felt that even if she bought all the sweet potatoes, the crisis was not as big as Ning Daguan, who sold her sweet potatoes, and she felt that Ning Zhiyuan really shouldn't be such a stupid person.

She was puzzled, but there was nothing she could do, and what she could do now was to run the porcelain business well, expand it, and then develop it elsewhere, if she hadn't married yet.

Ningxia Wei, Ning Daguan looked at the letter written by Li Dingfang, thoughtful, and the corners of his mouth hooked a trace of arc.

Li Dingfang told the whereabouts of the sweet potatoes and the general situation of commerce in the south of the Yangtze River, including the dispute between the Li family and the Tian family, which made Ning Daguan think of a good idea in his heart, which should be a bad idea.

Regarding the Li family's decision, because Ning Zhiyuan didn't know the Li family's situation, he couldn't understand them well, but even so, it was convenient for him to act.

It's just that he already knows what the Li family is worried about, and he doesn't look at Chongzhen Ning Zhiyuan by relying on those unwritten knowledge memories of later generations, but through these days, he also knows what kind of person Chongzhen is, and it is still somewhat similar to the history books, intentional or unintentional, even if he is very popular, he will not take it by force.

What's more, he didn't tell Chongzhen.

As early as when he harvested sweet potatoes in Ningxia, he handed Chongzhen a fold, saying in detail that he wanted to promote this crop, including the method of selecting seeds, the month of planting and the growing conditions, but there was no fertilization and topping, and it was always necessary to have reservations, of course, more said that he himself spent a lot of money to grow these crops, very hard, and it will definitely make Daming Zhongxing, a heart that worries about the country and the people

The word ZTE made Chongzhen excited for a long time, and the harvest of this sweet potato also made him excited for a long time, but the cruel facts hit him again, he knew that this promotion was not a thing that could be completed in the short term, it would take at least a few years of cycle, and the land was mostly occupied by wealthy businessmen and court officials, and his orders were mostly perfunctory, and he couldn't go to the field to supervise the cultivation every day, so he planned to find a good candidate first, and slowly figured it out.

It also made him understand one thing. (To be continued.) )
