Chapter 52: Muddy the Waters

When she and Ning Tonghua came back from Jingnan, it was already early the next morning, Luo asked a few words that had nothing to do with things, Bai Jin nodded and replied indiscriminately and covered his head and fell asleep.

Yesterday, I negotiated with Luo Chen, in fact, I wanted to drive the Liu family's salt shop out of Jingnan within four months.

But after talking about this matter, Ning Tonghua and Luo Chen talked about it in the main hall for two hours, and she didn't let her listen to it, so she stayed alone outside the courtyard and ate melon seeds.

Halfway through, Luo Yaqi came over with the chessboard to find abuse, Bai Jin seemed bored and could only play with him, and he didn't know how many games he had played and then he left with the chessboard in his own hands.

This makes Jiuzi fail miserably every time, how can he play?

Bai Jin also estimated that he should not play Go again for ten days and half a month.

In mid-February, Bailudong Academy opened, and after Baishan returned from Huicheng, he had to go to the academy again after staying for a few days.

In Huicheng for so many days, his studies have not been wasted at all, and Bai Jin listened to him recite poetry two days ago.

Now that the family has spare money, when he left, Bai Jin stuffed him with enough tattooed silver to let him eat better.

When he was sent away, Bai Jin suddenly found that this kid was as tall as her, and his face had faded away and gradually opened, with resolute facial features, and he was quite arrogant.

couldn't help pinching his face and said, "Study hard in the academy, if there are good-looking little girls to get along." ”

The first half of the sentence is still a little normal, but the second half of the sentence is simply boundless, Bai Shan's face is slightly red and said: "Where can the little girl in the academy look down on me, the worst family is also the gentry in the city." ”

"Really?" Bai Jin let go of his hand and said, "Do you think those little girls don't look down on our family?" ”

He didn't say a word, and Bai Jin patted him on the head at once: "I said to find the little girl, but you really went to find the little girl?" Is it proper to study at the academy to gain fame? ”

Bai Shan muttered with some dissatisfaction: "This is what you mentioned first, sister, where did I have this idea." ”

By the way, he felt a little unhappy, but he still added in a whisper: "It's better to say that you find someone to marry first." ”

"Go, go," Bai Jin said to him, as he gave him the package, "Don't worry about my affairs." ”

Bai Shan said goodbye and got into Fang Yuan's carriage.

Before sending Bai Shan away, there were a few laughing voices behind him, and he didn't have to think about it to know who it was, Bai Jin saw that the person behind him was holding a book to block his face, she walked over and knocked on her desk and said, "Shopkeeper Ning, your book is reversed." ”

Ning Tonghua changed his face very quickly, and he had already raised his head squarely: "The highest level of reading by the ancients is to be able to memorize the content of the book backwards. ”

Sneered, Bai Jin didn't have time to listen to his nonsense, sat down beside him and said, "What happened to the matter of letting you buy all the salt to Liu Mansion a few days ago." ”

"It's not good," Ning Tonghua put down the book in his hand and said, "When you sent the letter back, I had already asked someone to inform the Liu family, and said that the Bai family had a batch of salt that was going to be sold, and Master Liu asked how many catties, and I asked the little guy to report 10,000 catties." ”

"And then?"

"Master Liu said to think about it," Ning Tonghua said lazily, "We still have to wait a few days, if we have this time, it is better to go and count how many catties of salt there are in a few warehouses, and the salt intercepted from Yunfu before has not been touched." ”

What she said is also that almost all the salt mills have ceased fire in the first lunar month, plus the Liu family has already received a batch of salt a year ago, and most of the salt mills have almost no salt on hand, and even if they do, there is not much, just take 10,000 catties of salt, it is estimated that it can be worth the amount that more than ten salt mills can take now.

The Liu family eats it, but he has to think about whether he wants to eat it before he eats it.

After eating Bai Jin's family, he can collect less than a dozen salts, which is very convenient, but in fact, it is not the case, the Liu family's warehouse in Jingnan City is limited, and after eating this 10,000 catties, it means that the salt of the dozens of families cannot be filled, and the Liu family has signed a lease contract with those salt mills before, except for the Liu family, the salt of those salt mills cannot be provided to other salt shops.

Moreover, there are no other salt shops in Jingnan City except for the Liu family's salt shop, and no one who dares to open a salt shop in Jingnan City has the courage except her.

However, Liu Fu can make plans to transport salt out of Jingnan City...... If he gets it out

Bai Jin also plans to start next month, and the salt production of the salt mill will not be hidden, and all the salt produced every month will be sent to Liu's family, with the intention of squeezing out the small salt mills with small salt production first.

Master Liu is indeed having a headache.

And the source of his headache is not only because the Bai family took 10,000 catties of salt, but also because the Bai family got 10,000 catties of salt from.

A few days ago, he asked several large salt mills near the lake, and only the Jiang family's salt mill could still take out nearly 3,000 catties of salt, and the other salt mills could only take out 5 or 600 catties of salt sparsely.

Since August last year, the Bai family has been giving about the same amount of salt every month as other salt mills, and it stands to reason that they can't get much salt, so how can they give 10,000 catties at one time.

It's not a joke.

After a full count, he collected all the salt from all the salt mills near the lake, just enough to fill his warehouse, but the Bai family's salt could not be stuffed.

The warehouses in the salt shops in Huicheng, Liangcheng, and Runcheng are also empty, and he is also happy to buy this batch of salt.

Touching the jade wrench in his hand, Master Liu said, "Steward Yu, please go to the Bai family again, and tell me that this batch of salt has been bought." ”

Steward Yu frowned slightly: "Master, don't you just buy this batch of salt without thinking about it?" ”

"I've thought enough, what else do I have to think about?" Master Liu was a little dissatisfied, "The Bai family doesn't have the courage to trick us, even if the Bai family has anything to do with Jing'anhou, but these normal transactions do not Jingnanhou Mansion also want to intervene?" ”

Steward Yu shook his head: "The slave is not worried about this matter, although the amount of the remaining salt mills is not large, but after we collect it, we have to transfer a batch of salt to the outside of Jingnan City, if the Jingnan Hou Mansion intervenes in this place." ”

"Don't worry about this," Master Liu said, picking up the tea bowl, "As long as you want to transport it out, nothing can stop us." ”

"Yes......"

Master Liu said a few more words, and then remembered another thing: "You go to Bai Si's house again and tell him about the Bai family's desire to sell salt." ”

"Sir, what do you mean ......?"

Liu Xianneng smiled slightly: "The Bai family has been too peaceful these days, and this pool of water should also be stirred to see if it can be stirred up." ”

By the way, you can find out if this salt really exists, and how it came from.
