Inside the house.

"Lao Cui, you're not interesting enough!" The patriarch of the Zheng family joked: "If there is such a good thing, I don't know about us." ”

The other patriarchs all looked at the Cui family patriarch with a smile, and the meaning couldn't be more obvious.

It's not a good habit to eat alone.

Although the family is mentioned as five surnames and seven hopes, they are not so united with each other.

If you can.

Everyone present wanted to kill the other family and dominate the family.

The Cui family had traded with Fanshang for so many days before, and even if they were blind, they would have found out a long time ago.

At present, Datang mainly controls the salt of Cui Zheng and the two families, which does not mean that the other companies are not interested.

Before, there were just no suitable opportunities and conditions.

Now that the opportunity is in front of them, they are naturally like cats that smell fish.

In addition to these few people in Chang'an City, the other patriarchs rushed over quickly.

"A few people are serious." The patriarch of the Cui family replied: "Didn't I explore the path first to see if the other party was reliable." How can I forget you for such good deeds? ”

Isn't it just opening your eyes and talking nonsense, that's not just coming with your mouth open?

"It's almost touched now." The patriarch of the Cui family continued: "I'm still thinking about sending you the news in the next few days. ”

Truth be told, that's what he really intended.

In fact, from the first transaction, he knew that this matter could not be hidden from the eyes of several other companies.

It's just that at that time, he thought that there was not much inventory in the hands of the fanshang, and the transaction would be over with one or two hammers on his side.

At that time, even if other families know about it, it will be useless.

It's just that now it seems......

The snow salt over there looks like there is a lot of it.

In just these few transactions, their Cui family has made a lot of grain.

The Cui family does have a lot of food, but it can't all be exchanged for snow salt, right?

In that case, it's better to be a favor.

"Then Lao Cui, tell me, how is the investigation?" The Zheng family patriarch asked with a smile.

"At present, it seems that there is still a lot of snow salt in the hands of those merchants." The patriarch of the Cui family hesitated: "It's just ......"

"What, Lao Cui, are you still afraid that we won't be able to get food in our hands?" The patriarch of the Lu family joked: "It's not like your style of doing things." ”

"The old man is naturally not worried about the problem of food...... "The patriarch of the Cui family said with a strange face: "It's just that these merchants are really a bit too evil......

Then he gave a general account of the current situation, mainly because he couldn't figure out how the other party got the snow salt in anyway. 、

And that's not all.

They had also tried to find out where the food was going before, and they were also lonely......

The patriarch specially arranged for the housekeeper to carefully check the residence of the merchant during the transaction, but he couldn't find a grain of grain!

Those grains are like snow salt, and they are also lost out of thin air!

After listening to this, the faces of the other people suddenly turned wonderful.

Although people in this era are usually more superstitious, most of them refer to the people at the bottom.

People in their position don't have any fear of ghosts and gods in their hearts.

Maybe they can't prove that ghosts don't exist.

But if they didn't see it with their own eyes, they wouldn't believe it.

They only believe in wealth and status in their own hands!

Only these things can give them peace of mind!

"I think you're getting older and more confused." The patriarch of the Wang family said disapprerovingly: "Anyway, there are no outsiders here, so the old man opened up." If there really is such a ghost, why hasn't the old man seen it yet?! ”

He was actually quite straightforward.

Everyone knows each other what the specific urine sex is in these companies present.

To put it simply, there are countless books on the lack of morality.

If there were any ghosts or retribution, they would have been lying on the ground long ago.

"According to the old man's opinion, those merchants must have used some special means to cover people's eyes." The patriarch of the Li family stroked his beard: "This time, we will shoot together, and we must be able to find out the reason." ”

Everyone said so, and the patriarch of the Cui family naturally didn't want to say anything more.

Honestly.

Although he did have hair in his heart, he always felt that the ghosts and gods were still too ethereal.

Most of the so-called signs of ghosts and gods are just tricks.

After all, they have never done this kind of thing themselves.

Now that everyone is on the same page, the next step is to discuss the specific details.

I have to say that several others came really prepared.

Not only the patriarch has arrived, but even the first batch of food for path-finding has arrived!

They are very willing to exchange grain for snow salt.

There is so much food at home that I can't eat it all!

Some of them are harvested early, and I am afraid that they will be broken in a short time.

Anyway, they would rather let it go than take it out to help the people, so they simply exchanged it for salt.

Salt is a hard currency, so you don't have to worry about selling it at all!

After all, everyone has to eat salt, and everyone can't do without it.

And their ambitions are not limited to Chang'an City, but the entire Tang Dynasty!

Hundreds of thousands of catties, or even millions of catties of salt.

It sounds like a lot, but if it actually spreads to the entire Datang, it is not enough to stuff the teeth at all!

They just hope that they have enough stock in their hands now, don't let them down!

After discussing the details of the deal, the crowd dispersed.

In the following days, the merchants once again ushered in a large amount of grain.

And these companies also sent additional people to continue to find the secret of the merchants' shipments, but in the end they still found a lonely ......

There were still no carriages and horses coming and going to the merchants' residences, but when the time came, the fine salt that filled the courtyard came out again.

It's not that they didn't want to send someone to sneak in, but these merchants are really vigilant.

As for hiding in a nearby tree and peeking at it?

The Cui family had already thought of this trick before.

But on the first day they came, they put up a shed in the courtyard......

Look at Jill ......

Despite the doubts, the deal had to go on.

Get the salt in your hands first, everything else is secondary!

Time flashed, and it was the end of March.

Cao Fu.

Cao Ze was rescued a while ago, and he was driven back by Li Xiuning......

Occasionally a few days is fine.

It's not a problem to live there so unclearly after all......

this day.

Cao Ze prepared a big table and warmly entertained Li Shimin and Cheng Yanjin.

"These families are really good people!" Cheng Yanjin smiled: "With this batch of grain, the situation in Datang can be stabilized." ”

"Speaking of which, I really thank the Immortal Master for this!" Li Shimin picked up his wine glass and gestured to Cao Ze.

It's obvious.

The so-called snow salt of Fanshang was naturally arranged by them.

As for the fact that the Maison has never found out how they delivered the goods......

It is estimated that they want to break their heads, but they can't think of such a thing as Cao Ze having system space......

Before, their attention was all on the horses, after all, in their opinion, these things must be inseparable from transporting food.

Naturally, then, they will not pay attention to the occasional people who come in and out of the residence.

After all, people do business here all year round, and it is normal to have a friend to come and go.

Besides, the occasional one or two people coming in and out cannot be related to the transportation of snow salt.

What Cao Ze has to do is nothing more than to go and 'punch in' when he is in a good mood.

In order to avoid arousing the suspicion of the family, these grains are still in the Cao Ze space.

At least until enough food is obtained, the family must not be allowed to find out where this grain is going!

As for saying that the family can't understand how snow salt and grain are transferred, let them play slowly.

Unable to find something, they are at best full of question marks.

But once they find out where the grain is, the current trade can't continue!

At least until enough food is available, this matter must not be exposed!

However, judging from the current situation, the transaction will be less than a month away.

Although Li Shimin arranged for people to work overtime to get salt for a few months before, the time was still too short in the end.

In the past few months, it is only one or two million catties when it is full.

These stocks have almost been squeezed out by the Maison.

Today, they have a dinner party, which is considered to be an early celebration.

"That's right, Lao Li." Cao Ze felt that this would be in a good mood for Li Shimin, and it was a good opportunity: "I happened to get some good things out a while ago, are you interested in taking a look?" ”
