Qinjiazhuang, hilltop courtyard.

Qin Huaidao was meeting Jia Youcai, who rushed back to report the situation, and when he heard that someone was coming to report, Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng came to visit together, and refused on the grounds that they were not in the house, and the next battle with Li Er Qin Huaidao didn't want to involve the two.

"Tell me about today." Qin Huaidao skillfully made tea and asked.

Jia Youcai understood Qin Huaidao's temper and habits, without delay, and hurriedly said truthfully: "Young master, a total of more than 5,000 packs were sold out today, and at this rate, they can only be sold out in more than ten days. ”

Qin Huaidao nodded, and he had already thought about the cost.

There are five costs for this batch of salt, one is the cost of labor, one is the cost of transportation, one is the cost of charcoal firing, and the cost of eating for the workers and the reward for the team.

Selling salt is really a lucrative business!

However, Qin Huaidao didn't plan to say this profit to Jia Youcai, it has nothing to do with trust, but it is not necessary, the amount of paper wrapped in salt seems to be not small, but the cost is also within a controllable range, Qin Huaidao thought about it and reminded: "Today is the first time to sell, the number of purchases in the next three days will be higher, but it will decline after three days, don't worry about the lack of goods, the transport team has passed, day and night, it will not take a month to go back and forth, and next time pull two hundred carts over." ”

Jia Youcai nodded and said: "There is another problem, the salt sold by the county government entrusted by the imperial court has been reduced to three wen a catty, and many people want to be cheap, so they go to purchase, and it is suspected that many of them are hoarding goods. ”

"Oh, Sanwen?"

Qin Huaidao's eyes lit up, the price of Sanwen is already very low, and if you buy it and process it into snowflake salt, you will consume a lot in the middle, but the value of the income is about five Wen, even if you can sell it for four Wen, you can earn one Wen, and take one Wen to the wages of the people who finish it and the cost of buying charcoal, which can also be the same.

In other words, buy the salt of the imperial court with Sanwen silver, and sell it after processing it into snowflake salt, which does not seem to make money, but there are enough goods to supply the market, as long as there are enough goods, those salt merchants will panic after a long time, they will not be able to hoard it, clear the warehouse, and then buy it at a low price, and make a lot of money!

What's more, you can give Li Er a blow to the head, don't think that you can gain public opinion and stabilize the situation by snatching away your own 100,000 stone salt and selling it to the people.

A thought flashed, and Qin Huaidao asked, "Is there any purchase limit?" ”

"No, everybody comes to buy our salt, and we can't sell it if we buy it again." Jia Youcai said.

Qin Huaidao's eyes lit up, and he immediately advised: "Let the people of Qinjiazhuang and Zhaojiacun go over quietly, give them silver to vigorously purchase the batch of salt from the imperial court, remember, do it as a hidden point, it can't be exposed, and after the salt is bought, put it in the ancestral hall of Qinjiazhuang, arrange for people to keep an eye on it, and then send ten trustworthy women from the house to come over and teach everyone the method of refining snowflake salt, and sell it according to the four texts, so that there will be no shortage of supply." ”

"Understood, just, will it be a loss?" Jia Youcai reminded.

"No, go ahead, you must be hidden, you must start quickly, and you must purchase more."

Jia Youcai was convinced of Qin Huaidao's magical methods, and agreed to go in a hurry.

Qin Huaidao looked at the sunset outside the window, and the corners of his mouth hooked up with a touch of coldness - Li Er, are you ready to take the call?

A gust of wind blew, and the branches outside the window shook and rustled like frightened.

The afterglow of the sunset crept into the study along the window and fell on Qin Huaidao's firm and cold face.

The next moment, Qin Huaidao picked up the pen and wrote a line of words: the key points of banknote manufacturing.

It's time to launch banknotes, however, Qin Huaidao doesn't know much about the printing of banknotes, he can only slowly explore, the level of science and technology is not high, and he can't do all kinds of anti-counterfeiting in later generations.

Qin Huaidao has been to the museum, and knows that a kind of banknote is made of bast fibers of the tree of the tree, and the papermaking technique in the Zhenguan period is not bad, but the papermaking of the tree is not yet, it is a good choice.

Banknotes also need anti-counterfeiting technology, such as complex character drawings, special secret marks, hidden inscriptions, and it is best to get a three-color printing to improve the technology, which is difficult to imitate.

The last item is the printing master, can not use wood, it is best to use copperplate, the withering is complex, do some secret marks, the same has an anti-counterfeiting effect.

Qin Huaidao wrote down everything he thought of, and suddenly thought of a problem, Zhenguan rate stipulates that individuals cannot make coins, and the right to mint is in the imperial court, after thinking about it, he erased the title and revised it into: Qin Mansion Silver Money Certificate.

With the word Qin Fu means that it is limited to the use of the government, the statement of the voucher on behalf of the silver money indicates that it is only a voucher in place of silver money, not real silver, paper money, etc., although it wants to cover it, but it also has a certain protective effect.

After pondering for a moment and making sure that it was safe, he asked someone to call Xue Rengui and give him a careful advice.

Xue Rengui didn't dare to be careless after understanding the deep meaning, and hurriedly went.

The moonlit treetops and the night breeze blows.

Qin Huaidao returned to the bedroom and saw He'er

was holding the child to breastfeed, revealing a large piece of snow-white skin, and there was a faint maternal brilliance on his body, seeing Qin Huaidao's eyes, he stepped forward quickly: "He'er, I heard that our daughter is tired after a day's trouble, right?" ”

"It's okay to have Sister Xueyan to help take care of it, young master, He'er is newborn and hasn't recovered yet, and you have to take care of the child, I'm afraid you won't be able to take care of it at night, why don't you go to Sister Xueyan?"

"What do you think?" Qin Huaidao scolded with a smile, touching He'er's head, revealing endless love.

He'er didn't resist in front of touching her head, her face was full of shyness, but when she thought of her body, her enthusiasm receded like a tide, and she smiled bitterly: "I forgot that Sister Snow Goose is also pregnant, or take Xiaoyu, He'er can see that she is also willing, and she is Sister Snow Goose's personal maid, and she is also a house-filling maid." ”

"Okay, don't think about it every day, does it hurt?" Qin Huaidao asked with concern.

"It hurts."

"Why don't I suck it for you?"

"This is my daughter's, you ......" He'er's face turned red, and when she saw Qin Huaidao's evil smile, she suddenly moved a little, and said: "Or, you help me suck the other side, anyway, my daughter can't finish eating, and the pain is uncomfortable, they said that they have to squeeze it out if they can't finish eating, so that they won't get sick in the future, and they don't know if it's true or not." ”

"It's going to be nodules and proliferate, I'll help you." Qin Huaidao leaned over.

"No shame." Ha'er closed her eyes in embarrassment.

……

Early the next morning, Qin Huaidao got up with red eyes, and swore that he would never flirt with it again in the future, he could touch it, and he couldn't eat too uncomfortable, and He'er also woke up with a resentful face to feed the child, and said: "Young master, if you go to accompany Sister Xueyan tonight, otherwise we won't sleep well, and when He'er is better, I will definitely accompany you." ”

"It's okay, I'll stay and help you take care of the child." Qin Huaidao refused, women are important, daughters are also important, taking care of children's growth is a kind of happiness, and it can't be missed.

When He'er saw that he had to stay on this job, his heart was inexplicably warm, and he didn't persuade him again.

"He'er, are you up?" Li Xueyan's voice came from outside.

"Get up, come in, are you an outsider, just to help the young master change his clothes." Horr shouted.

Li Xueyan came over, and when she saw Qin Huaidao's eyes flushed, she couldn't help but ask, "Lang Jun, what's wrong?" ”

"It's fine." Qin Huaidao looked depressed.

He'er ate and smiled: "I'm inconvenient, I have wronged the young master, you see?" ”

Li Xueyan reacted reluctantly, her face turned red, and she said apologetically: "Lang Jun, I am also the most pregnant, or you look for Xiaoyu, she is willing." ”

"I still have something to deal with." Qin Huaidao put on his clothes indiscriminately and walked away.

"Hee-hee!"

The two women looked at each other and smiled.

Out of the backyard, Qin Huaidao first went to the kitchen to eat something, then changed into casual clothes and came to the Qinjiazhuang workshop, found a few craftsmen to build a large iron pot, filter bucket, and came to the ancestral hall to build an earthen stove together.

When the earthen stove was built, someone purchased the rock salt sold by the imperial court and returned, and the bags were thrown on the ground, and the ten women selected by the government also came, and Qin Huaidao asked people to find a large amount of charcoal and teach everyone how to make salt.

Pour a large pot of rock salt into the pot, add water to heat and dissolve, then filter it to another pot with charcoal, then heat and boil, control the temperature until the water boils dry, and what is left is the delicate crystals.

The key to this method lies in charcoal filtration and temperature, but it is not difficult to master, and it will be learned as soon as you learn it.

Qin Huaidao observed for a moment, and when he saw that everyone was completely relieved after mastering it, he came out after telling a few words of confidentiality, and said a few more words of confidentiality to the guards guarding the door, and went straight to Chang'an.

The price war has begun, and you still have to go and see for yourself, just in case.
