The saltworks were not connected in pieces, but in large chunks, and when Evans took over, he found that there were three hundred and twenty clans in charge of the saltworks. It is the middle management between the Niels family and the salt people. These management positions are generally inherited by family. These clans consisted of distant relatives of Nils, or the rise of the local salt people, or the legacy of some of their rich ancestors. The ingredients are not too complicated, and the most powerful ones should be those clans that have something to do with the salt people. They have the most power. Moreover, these clans formed a close alliance, monopolizing the price of salt externally and charging salt at a uniform price internally.

Although these clans are powerful, they are quite obedient, and there is nothing to find fault with the upper and lower. But this is by the standards of the old era, by the standards of the modern era. This is a typical bloated and corrupt group that must be eradicated.

Dispel the guards, create new police, develop fisheries, and divert the crowds that are attached to salt production. A set of combination punches down, the time is ripe, only the east wind is missing.

Wayne personally sent the east wind.

Niels Sea Salt Development Co., Ltd. Despite the awkward name, Wayne brought in a lot of prominent personalities when he opened the building, including the nobles of the neighboring territories, the salt merchants, and of course, the more important clans. Although Wayne didn't say much about what this newly established organization was for, the salt words in it were still very eye-catching.

Even the tavern owners who opened near the saltworks began to discuss what Wayne was going to do this time to alarm Rune.

Then Wayne set up offices in various salt works with lightning speed, and those salt merchants and clans looked at the cement main building, and the fenced yard moved in a lot of tools for weighing and measuring salt. And I was beating the drums with trepidation.

Notices were posted at the entrance of each office, full of salt price lists. Refined salt is five silver coins and one rial, coarse salt is three silver coins and one rial, and so on.

The people of those clans turned pale after reading the price list, and this price was about a silver coin or so higher than what they charged. This is enough to attract the salt people, after all, don't give an extra silver coin in vain.

Just when the clan elders gathered to discuss whether to reduce the price and fight a price war with the newly established Haiyan Company, things changed.

Due to the cycle of salt production, sea salt is basically harvested once a month, so both clans and offices must collect salt at the end of the month.

Just when the clan was about to give up the collection of salt this month, the salt people unexpectedly appeared at the door of the clan on time, and there were only a few seagulls hiding in the shadows at the door of the office.

"Grass. ”

Personnel from dozens of offices said in unison. The day that was full of confidence was squatting at the door before dawn, and it turned out to be this kind of ending.

"TMD, aren't these people going to ask for this extra silver coin?"

"Those clans must have played some tricks, maybe they threatened the salt people with knives. Report to your superiors. ”

"Let's go, report to go. ”

.....

"Director Evans, the Blue Baez office has not received anything. ”

Winsay complained.

"Administrator Evans, this is today's report. Don't talk about the salt people in line today, I haven't seen a grain of salt today. It's not surprising that we bought salt for a silver coin. It caused us to be exposed to the sun at the door all day. ”

After listening to Weinsay's complaints, Evans tossed the report on the top of the stack. Fingered.

"You can look at the reports that have been submitted by other offices. ”

Wen Sai quickly flipped it up, and it was all snow-white, without any handwriting. Of course, there are still a few offices that are lucky enough to buy some coarse salt, but it seems that the salt people sell it with salt that the clan does not want.

Wen Sai said viciously.

"These clans must have done something, otherwise the salt people must have run to them because of their bad brains. ”

Evans asked thoughtfully.

"Is your office too far away from the smokers to make them reluctant to come? ”

"No, we're about as close to the salt harvesters of those clans as the salt pans. ”

Evans tapped on the table.

"You go back first, I'll find someone to investigate. ”

"Go back, where are we waiting?"

"Wait. ”

While Wayne was still at the shipyard explaining the ships to the craftsmen and the Academy, Evans came to the door. After spending a long time together, Wayne also knew that Evans was not the kind of person who would easily disturb him, and he knew how precious his time was.

"What's wrong?"

Wayne asked.

"Look at it. ”

Evans presented the office reports from all over the place, and Wayne flipped through a few copies to get a general idea.

"Why. ”

"I didn't know I was going to come to you, I was here to ask for permission from the police. Now everyone wondered if those clans had done some tricks. I'm going to find the police to investigate. ”

Wayne smiled.

"It's useless to give you approval, there are less than three thousand people there in Garrido now, and they don't have all the clothes. And most of them are untrained. The town and town are pretty much the same, and if they are asked to do these fine jobs, isn't it chasing ducks to the shelves. ”

"Why don't you transfer Nolan's police?"

"No, how can the clan make a trick. You see, we have not received a riyal of salt, and a lot of it. Why, the salt people are not aware of our existence at all. ”

"We did the propaganda and put up notices everywhere. ”

Wayne shook his head.

"Are the salt people literate, your notice has a fart. This is a bit beyond your scope, I'll go and see, don't act rashly yet. ”

The next day, Wayne rode to the nearest Zizem saltworks office, the outside of the two-story cement building was painted bright white and gave a dazzling light, and a large courtyard of no more than 100 meters long and 10 meters wide was simply fenced, and the people inside were lazily basking in the sun, and their faces were indescribably depressed.

Wayne walked around the building, and the sign at the door was nothing out of the ordinary. Still, Wayne felt that the office was too conspicuous compared to the other buildings in Salt Village. Late out of a pile of rubble in the jadeite. Even compared to the salt collection of the clan, this place is much more luxurious.

However, this is not a luxury that the office deliberately repaired at public expense, this is an order given by Wayne himself, although it looks luxurious, but the actual cost is not much.

But now it seems that he was reckless, and he originally wanted to be tall and beautiful. In this way, we can show the special and new atmosphere of the office. But now Wayne feels that he was wrong, and the office is trying to fit the masses as closely as possible. Rather than a lot of magnificence. If he was a salt man who saw such a beautiful two-story building, he would be amazed and a little afraid, wondering if this was a place where he was dressed in tatters and shabby should not come.
