Chapter 256: To Each According to His Needs
Zhang Pengyuan's words were tantamount to firing a map cannon, and everyone present was offended, and Zhang Pengyuan couldn't help but feel a little numb when he saw everyone's fire-breathing eyes. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info But Zhang Pengyuan doesn't regret it, and now he can't afford to retire, their Zhang family dares to swallow the fat meat of refined salt sound alone, then sooner or later they will face off against the many forces present, anyway, they are all enemies, so what's the difference between being on the front sooner and the other on a later day? If he doesn't speak out at this time, then the reputation of the "fool" will inevitably fall on his head, and won't his reputation be ruined? Zhang Pengyuan doesn't want to walk the world with such a reputation, even if he doesn't care about reputation, does he still want the reputation of the British public lineage?
Seeing this, Liu Fan couldn't help but glance at Zhang Pengyuan in surprise, and Liu Fan also guessed something about Zhang Pengyuan's thoughts, and because of this, Liu Fan didn't expect that this Zhang Pengyuan still had such great courage. Even Liu Fan has to praise it, he is a character. Zhang Pengyuan is backed by the big tree of the British Mansion and is not afraid of the many forces present, Liu Fan himself does not have such a good figure, Liu Fan must find a way to appease everyone's anger, and he has already had a draft on how to appease Liu Fan, patting his hands, Liu Fan said loudly, "Don't worry, since Liu Fan has taken such great pains to invite you, he will naturally give you a satisfactory answer." In fact, you have overlooked one thing, we are not only in the capital! Although there is a business in the capital and its vicinity, there is no other place! Where can Shanxi, Shaanxi, Henan and even the provinces of Jiangnan not do business? ā
Liu Fan's words made everyone's eyes shine, yes, there is not only one place in the world, there are many places in the capital! Although the interests of other provinces are not as huge as those of the capital, they can't stand the size of the place!
Seeing this, Zhang Pengyuan was anxious, Liu Fan didn't discuss this matter with them. But then again, what the Zhang family and Liu Fan discussed was only the business of the capital, not the entire Ming Dynasty, and Zhang Pengyuan was in a dilemma for a while, and he didn't know what to do. Suddenly, Zhang Pengyuan seemed to remember something, and said in a hurry, "Not bad!" Lord Liu, so it's extreme! Although my Zhang family has some strength, it is impossible to swallow the entire Daming market in one gulp. Therefore, except for Zhili and other places in Liaodong Province, my Zhang family is not involved! Everyone is free to fight for it according to their abilities. ā
Nima! Including Liu Fan, such a thought arose in the hearts of everyone in the inner hall, this kid is too shameless, what Liu Fan just said did not include Liaodong, the place in Liaodong seems to be barren, but it can't stand the local tyrants. You must know that since the rise of Li Chengdong, the Liaodong Military Group has basically grabbed nearly half of the tax burden of the Ming Dynasty every year, how much wealth should it have in tens or hundreds of years? Such a big piece of fat was taken away by this kid with a light word, which made everyone embarrassed?
With a dry cough, Liu Fan attracted everyone's attention, and then said, "Everyone has heard Zhang Gongzi's words, everyone can rest assured now!" Well! Let me tell you about the cooperation of the rest of the provinces. In order to ensure the interests of the partners, we will adopt the method of exclusive sales, which means that only one partner is selected in a province, and others can not buy refined salt from us except for this partner! Well, now that everyone understands, let's get started! In order to avoid what happened last time, I decided that this auction will be open bidding, that is, everyone can bid freely, and the highest bidder wins! ā
After Liu Fan finished speaking, he glanced at Li Xiaohu beside him, and Li Xiaohu immediately stepped forward and said loudly, "Now I announce that the auction has begun, and the first exclusive sales province, Henan Province!" The low price is 10,000 taels of silver, and the bidding begins! ā
"Fifteen thousand taels", "twenty thousand taels", "fifty thousand taels" in the market of a province, even if you sell it to others, the profit is more than hundreds of thousands of taels! Everyone in the hall had red eyes and shouted loudly, and the 100,000 taels that had been rising slowly decreased! But it's just a little subsided, the small forces are out, and the real big forces are still gritting their teeth to support it, after all, no one wants to give up such a big interest. Liu Fan saw that everyone was full of red ears and red eyes and a gambler's posture of losing red eyes, and he was secretly happy in his heart, the more crazy they were, the more beneficial it was for Liu Fan, only in this way could Liu Fan get the maximum benefit!
After more than half an hour of fierce competition, the exclusive right of Henan Province was finally sold at a price of 200,000 taels. Under its influence, the rest of the provinces also sold smoothly, and none of the northern provinces had less than 100,000 taels. It's just that the price in the southern provinces has dropped, and Lianghuai is only the lowest price of 50,000 taels. Liu Fan was also very helpless about this, after all, the power of the two Huai salt merchants was too huge, and not everyone dared to touch their tiger whiskers!
At the end of the auction, although the forces of all parties regretted that they could not obtain the exclusive sales rights in the capital area, they still achieved some benefits in the end, and their senses towards Liu Fan were not as hostile as they were at the beginning. After all, if you want to make money in the future, you have to rely on Liu Fan's help, and it is not good for everyone to tear your face. For Liu Fan, although he has paid some price, his gains are not small, at least he doesn't have to worry about these people and the bigwigs behind him staring at him all the time!
But this is also a few joys and a few sorrows! Compared with the hundreds of people in the hall, after all, there are only a few people who get benefits, and seeing these bigwigs eating one by one with their mouths full of oil, but without their share, the mood of these people can be imagined. Originally, everyone thought that only one person in the capital would win, so everyone didn't have much hope, and they were willing to be a spectator who accompanied the prince to study. Who knew that Liu Fan actually had a backhand, and there were more than ten cakes at once, but they could only watch, who could they change, who could feel better? At the end of the feast, seeing that there really seemed to be no benefit to be taken, everyone glanced at Liu Fan with resentful eyes and offered to leave.
How could Liu Fan not know about everyone's expressions, Liu Fan had actually been prepared for this, Liu Fan hurriedly stopped everyone and said, "Don't worry, everyone!" Didn't I say it, since I, Liu, invited everyone to come, I won't disappoint everyone. Although the refined salt business is gone, there are other businesses! To tell you the truth, I have recently been interested in getting involved in other industries such as food and daily necessities, if you are interested, you may wish to stay and talk, maybe there will be an unexpected gain? ā
Everyone shook their heads when they heard this, all of them are big businessmen with names and surnames, who is willing to pull down their faces to talk about these trivial small businesses? Even if you really have that meaning, you can express it now, you must know that all of you here are industry leaders, and the influence covers most of the north, once it spreads, it will not be laughed to death by your peers? Everyone is a person who wants to be faced, who wants to be looked down upon?
"Alright! Since everyone is not interested, then I didn't say it! Liu Fan didn't care when he saw this, he took out all the methods, but you didn't accept it, no wonder he Liu Fan.
"Since everyone still has something to do, then I won't keep it!" After finishing speaking, Liu Fan clapped his hands, and immediately several soldiers came up with trays. Liu Fan pointed to the toothpaste, toothbrush, soap and other things in the tray and said, "Recently, I have been idle and bored, and I have improved a few gadgets, some daily things are still very convenient, this time I will give it to you as a parting gift, you might as well go back and try it, if anyone is interested, you can contact me!"
