"There's a lot of salt......

Halfway through his words, Li Shimin was stunned.

The eyes lit up all of a sudden!

Before, Cao Ze just asked him to hoard salt, saying that he would bring it back to the pit family.

But no specific plans were given.

Now Cao Ze suddenly mentioned this, and the answer is about to come out!

I'm waiting here!

That's right, too.

Cao Ze is an immortal, and being able to pinch it can be regarded as a basic exercise.

The previous calculation of Luo Yi's rebellion is a good example!

If that's the case, then it will indeed solve the problem at hand!

And by the way, you can take a pit family, it's really happy!

"Presumably the Cui family can't wait." Cao Ze smiled and picked up his wine glass: "It's time for our business friends to appear." ”

Seeing that Li Xiuning was a little puzzled, Cao Ze carefully explained the reason.

After listening, Li Xiuning nodded suddenly.

If the plan is implemented smoothly, the family will really be sold and will have to help Cao Ze count the money.

Immediately, she glanced at Cao Ze with a strange expression.

That's a terrible trick......

But she loves it!

The stone in his heart fell to the ground, and Li Shimin was obviously in a much better mood.

Immediately enjoyed the hot pot.

It's just that his good mood still didn't last long.

"You're not healed yet." Li Xiuning wanted to clip the meat from the spicy pot, but was stopped by Cao Ze: "You can't eat spicy." ”

"Sun Zhenren watched it two days ago and said that it would be okay to eat some." Li Xiuning disagreed.

"That's not going to work either." Cao Ze took a bunch of vegetables from the white pot and put them in Li Xiuning's bowl: "If you want to eat spicy, I'll talk about it when the injury is healed." ”

Li Shimin's hand holding the chopsticks shook slightly.

I hadn't eaten much, but I suddenly felt a little full......

And there was an inexplicable diaphragm in my heart......

Cui's compound.

The patriarch of the Cui family has not been in a good mood lately.

Recently, he estimated that the time should be almost up, so he arranged for someone to watch carefully in Chang'an City.

But until now, those merchants have not yet appeared.

"Patriarch......" Cui Jiang worried: "Those guys shouldn't change their hexagrams, right?" ”

"Merchants are profit-seeking, and they should come." The patriarch shook his head: "And after learning our identity, they will not and dare not cooperate with others anymore." ”

The only thing he was worried about now was whether those merchants had encountered any accidents.

After all, those merchants also said before that it was also risky for them to get the salt.

Although there is no shortage of exaggerated elements for the sake of price increase, there are still some in the end.

This time they must have brought a lot of salt, and the pressure can be imagined.

Accidents can happen in their country, or they can happen halfway through.

After all, there are pirates in these years.

It is also possible that there was a strong wind and waves and the boat capsized......

Once the salt thing falls into the water, it will be completely hopeless......

Just then, the butler came in.

"Master, those merchants are here."

The patriarch was in good spirits all at once!

"Bring it in!"

Not long after, the representatives of the merchants arrived.

It's just that they look a little embarrassed, and their clothes are torn in many places.

"How many people are?" The Cui family patriarch asked puzzled.

"Honorable Patriarch." Several merchants poured out their bitterness: "This time, because of too much salt transported, I encountered several ambushes in the country, and then there was an accident on the road......

"We didn't do it on purpose." Another merchant explained: "It's just that I'm really afraid of another accident, so I rushed over without waiting to pack up, and I hope you will forgive me." ”

"The old man is not such a stingy person, you don't have to think about it." The patriarch smiled and said, "I don't know how much snow salt you brought this time?" ”

"Live up to the trust!" The representative of Fanshang arched his hand and said: "Absolutely satisfactory!" ”

Although he didn't say it explicitly.

But looking at his tone, the Cui family patriarch knew that there would definitely be no less!

Buy low and sell high.

As soon as you get your hands on it, it's a lot of money!

Although the Cui family has a rich background, he definitely doesn't like to have too much money!

"In that case, what are you going to do with the right deal?" The patriarch smiled and said, "Don't worry, as long as you have enough goods, money is not a problem." ”

"Honorable Patriarch, we don't plan to sell it for money this time." The representative of Fanshang hesitated: "When we went back before, we learned that there was a famine at home, and now food is better than money...... You see......"

The patriarch's expression moved when he heard this.

There is an urgent shortage of food here in Datang, and there is also a famine in Fanbang?

Could it be too much of a coincidence?

After thinking about it again, I thought that maybe it was really a coincidence.

After all, with so much snow salt, it will definitely take time to refine it.

Add to that the amount of time spent on the road......

If it is really related to Datang's side, it is impossible to take it out until now.

After all, the time of refining must have been before the disaster broke out completely.

There can't be a prophet, right?

"But you are a small country, you can't eat so much food, right?" The patriarch still asked.

"This time it is not only our country that has caused a disaster, but also several neighboring countries are similar." Fanshang said with a greedy face: "Now food is better than money!" ”

The patriarch nodded knowingly.

Looks like these guys have a lot of appetite!

But that's right, there is no treachery, no business.

After the last doubts were dispelled, it was time to enter the negotiation process.

Before, the Cui family did say that after the goods arrived, they would buy them at the usual price of half a catty, but since the other party has changed to grain now, the price will naturally change!

"If you are like this, the old man will be a little difficult to do." The patriarch of the Cui family was puzzled: "You may not know it when you first came, but now our Datang is also in a famine, and food is very scarce!" ”

"This ......" a few businessmen were confused: "We also know a little about the situation in Datang, with the Cui family's heritage, there shouldn't be a shortage of food, right?" ”

"A big family and a big business means that there are more people to feed." The patriarch smiled and said: "And in order to help the people, we really donated a large amount of food out, and now we can't open the pot at home." ”

The patriarch was naturally, but it didn't matter.

Since the merchants want food, why don't they push down the price?!

A few of the merchants were silent.

"According to last year's grain price, it was converted into 500 wen per catty of fine salt." The patriarch of the Cui family said with a smile.

Although the price of food is now several times higher, he also knows that this price cannot be maintained forever.

In this case, it is natural to take the opportunity to slaughter the merchants!

"Consistently!"

A few merchants gritted their teeth and replied.

"We have been extremely dangerous along the way, and we have lost more than half of our manpower. At this price, we are simply losing money, and we can't explain it to our people! ”

"According to the current grain price of Datang, this price is actually higher than before." The smile on the patriarch's face became even stronger: "You guys have earned it!" ”

"If that's the case, then we'll have to work with someone else." The merchants obviously couldn't accept the price.

"Of course, you can do that." The patriarch picked up the teacup and took a sip: "It's just that I can't guarantee whether I can find someone who is willing to buy your salt." ”

Several of the merchants were silent again.

It's a naked threat, but they're powerless to resist......

Long......

"Honorable Patriarch." The representative of Fanshang arched his hand and said: "The matter is big, we need to go back and discuss it carefully." ”

"Three days." The patriarch stretched out three fingers: "If you are still unwilling in three days, then you can only come and go back!" ”
