Chapter 481: Negotiation and Cooperation (II)

"Lord Zongbing's method is indeed somewhat feasible, if you are really willing to sell us this refined salt purification method, Zhao can be the master and buy it, how about it?"

"Really!?" Liu Fan was a little incredulous, he originally fooled this Zhao Yan with the attitude of trying, but he didn't expect Zhao Yan to agree. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Nima, these two salt merchants are really rich! The purchase and sale of 10 million taels of silver was promised when he said yes. A small crystallization method is actually worth 10 million taels of silver? Liu Fan felt that his worldview was about to be subverted!

After looking at Zhao Yan in a daze for a long time, Liu Fan found that he didn't seem to be joking, and suddenly his heart was overjoyed, and he hurriedly said, "Brother Zhao is really courageous!" In other words, the governor didn't dare to make such a decision easily, but he didn't expect Brother Zhao to figure it out so quickly, wise! ”

Hearing that Zhao Yan was willing to pay a high price of 10 million taels to buy his "secret recipe", Liu Fan suddenly didn't even want to do the festival, and the head of the family stopped calling anything, and directly began to call each other as brothers. Liu Fan was afraid that Zhao Yan would temporarily regret it, so he hurriedly added, "Actually, this method can not only purify salt, but also sugar." This is my secret ingredient, just a little refining to get white sugar as white as snow. If you can manage it carefully, the annual income of several million taels is indispensable. In just three or five years, you can return to your capital by relying on the sugar business alone! In fact, 10 million taels of silver is really not a loss! ”

Knowledge is power, it is money! Liu Fan really felt the preciousness of knowledge at this moment, a simple crystallization method in later generations could bring him such huge benefits, if it was replaced before, Liu Fan would not dare to think of it.

"Sugar can also be refined?" Zhao Yan didn't expect that there would be an accident, but in addition to the surprise, he was still a little puzzled, "Since sugar can also be refined, why didn't Lord Zongbing run the sugar business?" As far as I know, the higher quality sugar is not less than salt! ”

"Do you think Ben Governor doesn't want to?" Liu Fan sighed and complained, "The foundation of this governor is in Shandong, and the sugar industry in the north is not very developed. If it involves the sugar industry, it consumes too much time and energy, and the benefits are not too big, and the gains outweigh the losses! But you're different! The cane sugar in the south is still very easy to produce, and you are only a good purification method. With Bendu's method, it's like a tiger with wings, are you still afraid that you won't be able to make money? ”

"It's indeed this reason," Zhao Yan was immediately relieved when he heard this

Liu Fan suddenly smiled and said, "The sincerity of this governor is quite sufficient, such a profitable method is 'cheap' to you like this, you should feel content." So, Brother Zhao, should you also let this governor see your sincerity? ”

"Uh" Liu Fan said this, Zhao Yan also felt that he should indeed come up with some dry goods on his side, otherwise Liu Fan would definitely not be satisfied. If this opportunity for cooperation is lost because of this, Zhao Yan will regret it. After thinking about it, Zhao Yan opened his mouth and said, "Since Lord General is so refreshing, then Zhao will not hide it." As a sign of sincerity, we are willing to take care of you and let the local government release the imprisoned traders to ease the conflict between the two families. In addition, after Zhao returned, he immediately persuaded the salt merchants in Suzhou and Hangzhou to let them give up their hostility with the general soldier. If the general soldier is still not satisfied, other conditions can also be mentioned, as long as the conditions allow, Zhao can also consider agreeing! ”

"Good! That's what collaboration looks like! Liu Fan opened his mouth and praised and said, "In addition to the above two items, the governor also has to add one, as long as you agree, the pricing power of this salt price is determined by the governor, then our cooperation this time is completed, how about it?" ”

"Pricing power?" Zhao Yan's face sank and he was a little embarrassed, "Although Lord General Bing is here, I would like to agree to you immediately, but you should also know that this matter is not something that can be decided by the next person." Could you allow us to go back and talk to you before getting back to you? ”

Liu Fan sighed and said, "Is that so?" Alright, you can go back and discuss it first, and then come back to me when you're all agreed. But until an answer is given, the Doge will not make a truce. You should be well aware that the Governor could not give up a good situation for the sake of your uncertain words. ”

"As it should be, as it should be!" Zhao Yan nodded sweating profusely, and now he suddenly felt that the pressure on his body was so great! To promote this cooperation, it is not only necessary to satisfy Liu Fan's appetite, but also to take into account the interests of their own side, which makes Zhao Yan, who prides himself on being resourceful, feel the pressure doubled and is a little overwhelmed.

Zhao Yan knew that there could be no more progress in the negotiations between them and Liu Fan until the salt merchants in Suzhou and Hangzhou were convinced. So seeing that Liu Fan's expression seemed to be a little impatient, he hurriedly said goodbye. Under Liu Fan's advice, Zhao Yan and his party left Tianfu and returned to Yangzhou again non-stop, hoping to dare to dissuade Wang and Wu's family before they started. Otherwise, once they do it, it will be too late.
