Looking at the white salt in front of him, Li Yu's tears burst out. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"I don't know how much salt Brother Wang has now?" Now Li Yu has confirmed that Wang Yue has the ability to obtain salt, but he still needs to know how much salt Wang Yue has now, only in this way can he know himself and his opponent.

"Fifteen quintals." During the Song Dynasty, a load was about 100 kilograms, and Wang Yue bought 1.5 tons of salt, which was about 15 kilograms.

Li Yu groaned: "Some are not enough! "Yes, three thousand catties is indeed a lot for one person, but if it is spread evenly over the entire Huangyuan County, it will seem a little insignificant. Although Huangyuan is only a small county, there are tens of thousands of people living in it, and these 3,000 catties of salt can only be thrown into it as a raindrop.

"It's not enough, I can guarantee you that the salt source is absolutely fine, as long as you can sell it, I can give you as much as you want!" Wang Yue assured Li Yu that in fact, he originally knew that this salt was far from enough to bring down the Bai family, but this was already the limit of what he could do alone, and if there was too much salt, he would not be able to transport it alone.

After receiving Wang Yue's assurance, Li Yu nodded, since Wang Yue was sure that he could get enough salt, he was sure to bring down the Bai family.

"As long as you can guarantee that there is enough salt, I can guarantee that the Bai family will be defeated!" Li Yu looked at Wang Yue's eyes and said categorically. After receiving Li Yu's affirmation, Wang Yue knew that Li Yu now believed that he had the ability to defeat the Bai family, so he took hands and returned to the palace with a group of people.

In the living room of the palace, Wang Yue sat in the first place, Li Yu sat on Wang Yue's right hand, and then Wang Youhua and Goudan sat on Li Yu's lower seat and Wang Yue's left hand side in turn, this is Wang Yue's team at this time, there are only three people!

"Li Yu, you can do it tomorrow, I don't understand the things on the salt, and you will have to be solely responsible for it when the time comes, are you sure?" ‘

"Don't worry, with the quality of salt as big brother, if Li Yu can't bring down the Bai family, then Li Yu will be too stupid." After Li Yu came to Wang's house, the first thing he did was to ask Wang Yue to take him to see the salt, he didn't know that Wang Yue's salt was of this quality, so he wanted to see the quality of the remaining salt, but when he saw the mountain of white salt in Wang Yue's granary, his whole body trembled. Li Yu asked Wang Yue in a trembling voice if this was the remaining salt, and when Wang Yue answered affirmatively, Li Yu knelt down on the spot and thanked Wang Yue for helping him avenge him. As the son of a salt merchant, he certainly understands how this salt will affect the market, and he also knows that with this salt, he will definitely be able to defeat the Bai family and drive the Bai family out of the salt market in the Yellow Plains.

"I wonder what price Big Brother is going to set for this salt?" This is the second question that Li Yu is concerned about, the purchase price of such a good quality salt is definitely not low, so what kind of price to sell is a problem, if it is sold low, it will lose, and if it is sold high, no one can afford to buy it in this small place in Huangyuan.

"Let's set it at 300 wen a pound for the time being."

"What? Three hundred texts! Li Yu stood up from his seat. Big brother, do you know what the concept of three hundred wen a catty is, the inferior salt of the Bai family is sold for six hundred wen a catty. We will lose all the 300 wen! ”

Wang Yue smiled and waved his hand to signal Li Yu to sit down, and after Li Yu sat down, Wang Yue said slowly: "Li Yu, you remember, our salt is already very profitable when sold for three hundred wen a catty. ”

Yes, Wang Yue's salt was already very profitable when sold for 300 wen a catty, and he used a total of 15,000 yuan to buy these salts, which was converted into more than three taels of silver. And if it is sold for 300 wen a catty, Wang Yue will be able to get nearly 900 taels of silver from this batch of salt, which is already 300 times the profit!

Li Yu didn't understand why such a good salt was only sold for 300 wen, and he didn't understand that such a good salt was only sold for 300 wen and didn't pay for it. But he wouldn't say anything more when he got Wang Yue's assurance, and Li Yu thought to himself that Wang Yue might have gotten some secret to reduce the cost of salt. However, selling salt at such a low price, he was even more sure that it would be very simple to defeat the Bai family.

On October 15, a new shop opened in downtown Huangyuan and sold high-quality salt at very low prices. As the leader of the Huangyuan salt merchants, the Bai family learned the news very quickly and regarded it as a provocation to themselves.

At this moment, the living room of the Bai family was full of salt merchants dressed in silk and satin, they were all dependent on the Bai family to do business, and they handed over a considerable amount of silver to the Bai family every year. "Master Bai, what should you do about this? They keep the price of salt so low, obviously they don't want to give us a way to live! A large businessman said to the old man of the Bai family, who was sitting at the head of the hall at the moment. As soon as this man spoke, the salt merchants in the hall shouted.

"yes, they don't want us to live!"

"Whoever doesn't let us live, we won't let him live!"

"yes, we need to get them out."

……

After a while, the entire Baifu living room became a pot of porridge.

"Enough! Silence me all! A deep voice came from the first place in the living room, and the old man of the Bai family spoke!

"Ladies and gentlemen, I already know this. I know what you are worried about, and I am here to assure you that your interests will not be compromised. Guys go back first, I think of a way to inform you. Master Bai said.

These people heard the Bai family's reply, but none of them left here. They pay so much silver to the Bai family every year because when something happens, the Bai family can make a move, but now the Bai family has no intention of making a move, and they don't get the answer they want, so they naturally won't leave like this.

Seeing that these salt merchants did not move, Master Bai couldn't help but be a little angry. "What? Isn't the old man's words useful now? After speaking, Master Bai tapped the ground with his cane.

At this time, the large salt merchant said: "Master Bai, we pay you a lot of money every year, just hoping that the Bai family will take action when we have problems, but you don't do anything now, which makes me feel cold." ”

"Chilling? Okay, the old man will make you chill! Rifle. ”

At this time, an old man with a white beard in his fifties, who had been standing behind Master Bai, walked up to Master Bai and said, "The old slave is here, what does the master command?" ”

"Tell me from below, don't put salt on this next year!" Old Man Bai pointed at the salt merchant with his cane and said.

"Yes, sir." The man, whose name was Laifu, answered, and then withdrew from the parlor and gave orders to go down.

This salt merchant didn't expect the Bai family to treat himself like this, he had made great contributions to the Bai family, he had made great efforts when he framed the Li family, but now the Bai family has done this to himself. At this moment, he can't think about too much in his heart, and there is only one thought in his heart, that is, he is finished! Without the salt of the Bai family, his status in Huangyuan would plummet, and those businessmen who had offended themselves in the past would also fall into the trap for themselves.

"I wonder if anyone else has something to say?" Master Bai said after scanning the living room with his eyes. Master Bai was a little angry, he didn't expect that he hadn't made a move all these years, and these salt merchants under his command had forgotten their own methods and dared not listen to their orders. Just as the salt merchant in front of him hit the muzzle of the gun, Master Bai used him to kill chickens and monkeys. In the Bai family's heart, a dog like him can have as much as he wants.

At this moment, the living room was silent, they were afraid that the Bai family would take away their right to sell salt, although they had to pay a lot of money to the Bai family every year, but what they earned from selling salt was far greater than what they handed over to the Bai family.

Seeing that Master Bai was angry and the fate of the salt merchant, these salt merchants hurriedly said goodbye to Master Bai, and after a while, there was only Master Bai in the originally bustling Bai family's living room.
