Chapter 123 Collect processing fees
After seeing these broken promises, Liang Qingbiao almost wanted to kneel down for Lu Ning.
He walked up to Lu Ning and said with a very admiring tone.
"Lord Lu, I'm so convinced of you, people don't say anything difficult to you, it can be solved, I didn't believe it before, but now I believe it completely."
When Lu Ning saw someone complimenting himself like this, he naturally had to be polite, and he replied with a smile.
"It's just a trivial matter, what's polite, don't praise me like this, I'll be embarrassed to praise me again."
At this time, Liang Qingbiao showed his ultimate goal, and he said with a smile.
"If you can teach the process of making refined salt, we will be able to make a large amount of official salt at that time, and the quality is excellent and the price is low, so naturally no one will buy private salt."
Hearing what he said, Lu Ning felt a little awkward, people can't be shameless to this extent, when did I tell you the process of salt making?
Therefore, Lu Ning said directly to Liang Qingbiao.
"Lord Liang, don't worry, since we have already made refined salt now, and you are quite tired after a hard day, eat something first, let's talk slowly."
When he arrived at the wine table, after three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Lu Ning let out a long sigh.
Liang Qingbiao is soft mouth of eating others, he saw Lu Ning, a little sad, and asked.
"Is there something bothering Lord Lu? Since Xia Guan has lived here for a few days, he is also friends with you, so he can just talk about anything. ”
Lu Ning sighed again and said lightly.
"I'm a poor person, although I am the viscount of the imperial court, but I only have two hundred taels of silver for a year, what is enough to do, and I haven't married a daughter-in-law yet."
Liang Shangshu was even more depressed, saying that if you are poor, then we will all ask for food.
Don't you know how big your family business is in Changning County? Just that winery, a day earns thousands of taels of silver, not to mention anything else.
If you want to save your wife's book, it's just a joke, but he had to echo it.
"Actually, the lower official's Yulu is similar to you, so we can't do anything about it, you still have some industries that can subsidize some households."
Lu Ning nodded, and then told Liang Qingbiao.
"It is precisely because I am poor that the imperial court took special care of me, gave me this mine near Changning, and let me make my own salt and sell it to the imperial court, which is simply a great grace of the emperor!"
Speaking of which, it can be regarded as a poor dagger, Liang Qingbiao was stunned when he heard it, there is no such thing as you, right?
Before he could say anything, Lu Ning continued.
"But it's good that it was also a mine of the imperial court before, and if I make salt to sell to the imperial court, it will be too much, but you can take the salt as you like, and I have to charge a processing fee, so that everyone is a win-win situation."
Liang Qingbiao thought about it, if the matter can be solved like this, it is really a compromise.
Anyway, the processing fee is not much, it is much better than the imperial court to buy salt from Lu Ning, he has to understand what price this is first.
Before he could ask, Lu Ningbei gave a direct and intimate answer.
"Every time a caravan sent by the imperial court can transport salt to me at will, but you need to pay two thousand taels of silver at a time, and I don't want treasure money, just a silver ticket for the dragon."
Two thousand taels is not a high price, but this mine is inexhaustible, and if it is mined all, there may be hundreds of millions of catties.
Therefore, as long as Lu Ning negotiates this business, it is equivalent to receiving a small silver mountain for his family, but he is really a profiteer.
This matter is not a small matter, of course Liang Qingbiao can't make his own decisions, he also has to ask the court for an answer.
After the song fold arrived at the imperial court, Zhu Yuanzhang just said indifferently after reading it.
"Zi'an, this kid is really good at business, but in the future, we really have to use him as an official and give full play to this kid's ingenuity."
After finishing speaking, he also approved the performance, and then the imperial court sent it back to Changning County in a hurry of 600 miles.
After the imperial court came back, Liang Qingbiao breathed a long sigh of relief, and then said to Lu Ning.
"The imperial court has agreed to do this, this is a great grace, and you should not forget to play thanks, this matter is really very important."
Lu Ning nodded, he didn't want to argue with Liang Qingbiao about anything, although this guy was a little pedantic, but it could be seen that he was also a person who could do things honestly.
So he ordered Fu Bo to prepare some good wine and related gifts for Lord Liang, which were all inventions in his usual shop.
Then, he said to Liang Qingbiao.
"I've been with Lord Liang for the past few days, and I think you're a good official, these gifts are for you to keep as a souvenir, and I hope that if you have time, you'll come to visit my old friend again."
Liang Qingbiao was also very emotional, he didn't expect Lu Ning to be so affectionate and righteous.
He immediately arched his hand and said.
"Please rest assured, the next time Xia Guan passes by Changning on business, he will definitely visit again."
After sending Liang Shangshu away, Lu Ning lay on the recliner in the courtyard, closing his eyes and resting.
During this period of time, although not much happened, he was a little tired from being riddled with trivial matters.
At this time, Fauber came up with a ledger and said to him.
"Young master, I just calculated this account, these salt mines are basically difficult to use up for decades, and if you give us two thousand taels of silver every time, it is really a huge amount."
