saltpeter mines in Baqu County; Because Lu An and Qinghe Lu and Pingyuan Chen went to bid at the same time, they became the most sought-after business for a while.

Pure saltpeter, which is usually less than one or two pounds of silver, has increased nearly twenty times in just about ten days!

Lose your marbles!

The saltpeter mine owners of the entire Baqu County are crazy!

Realizing that the saltpeter ore in their hands is becoming more and more valuable, some small miners eventually start to pick up the shelves.

As long as it is time to negotiate, people from Lian'er and Chen Lu's families must be present at the same time before they appear.

As for the transaction price, naturally whoever pays the higher price will win.

Even in the end, if the mine owner was not satisfied, he directly released the pigeons of the three families!

However, what everyone didn't expect was that Liu Dalong, the largest saltpeter mine owner in Baqu County, missed out on this lively bidding acquisition!

The entire mine has been completely surrounded by a circle of land acquired by Lu An, and it is filled with dung!

Even if it's within a mile, no one can stand the smell!

The most important thing is that even if you go in hard, if you want to come out, you can only nod Lu An!

It can be said that the Liujia mine is full of treasures, but no one can take them out!

Therefore, in just a few days, Liu Dalong, a figure who was once invincible in Baqu County, and even a guy who usually didn't even care about the county guard, has now become a joke in the streets!

Nearly a month later, the saltpeter mine acquisition war in Baqu County finally ended perfectly.

The wealthy Chen and Lu families joined forces and beat Lian'er sent by Lu An to a terrible beat.

- I didn't even get my hands on the smallest saltpeter mine!

Lian'er, who came back with a disgraced face, immediately knelt down in front of Lu An and pleaded guilty.

Lu An hurriedly picked her up with his own hands and said with a smile, "Lian'er, not only are you right, but you have meritorious, great merit!" Haha-"

Seeing this, Lu Yuyan, Mu Lingfeng, Lian'er and others looked at Lu An puzzled.

"Hehe, have you forgotten?"

Lu An squeezed his eyes and smiled mysteriously, "Our saltpeter ice making method, saltpeter can be reused!"

So, why do you want so many saltpeter mines? ”

Lu Yuyan instantly understood, "What does An Shao mean by deliberately consuming the funds of the Chen and Lu families?" ”

"Hmm." Lu An nodded and praised, "Miss Yuyan is right!

Hehe, Chen and Lu calculated that the raw material for our ice making is saltpeter, so in order to crack down on our ice-making business, they spent a lot of financial resources to buy almost all the saltpeter mines in the entire Baqu County.

It's a pity that they didn't know that saltpeter makes ice, and saltpeter can be reused.

If they want to yin me, then why can't I fulfill them?

According to the news brought back by Lian'er, this time, the Chen and Lu families wasted at least millions of taels of silver in Baqu County, which was specially used to purchase saltpeter mines, which is great news! ”

At this point, Lu Yuyan, Lian'er, Mu Lingfeng and the others finally understood Lu An's intentions!

The arrogant and arrogant four great families of the Central Plains, relying on the profound heritage of hundreds of years, did not take Lu An, an emerging business elite, in their eyes at all, and used all means to strangle Lu An in the blue!

The next thing, even a fool can see that once Lu An has no capital and no raw materials for the subsequent production of various products, there is only one way, and that is to bow his head to the four great families for help.

When the time comes, the four great families can take the opportunity to attack Lu An, put forward all kinds of harsh conditions, and lie on Lu An's fat meat to suck huge profits at will!

It's just that the four great families didn't expect that Lu An had already thought of countermeasures.

Want to cut off his raw materials?

Dream!

On the other side, the two patriarchs of Yangzhou City, Mrs. Chen and Lu Dingtian, got together again.

The two families spent millions of taels of silver at one time, and finally succeeded in completely controlling the saltpeter mine in Baqu County, so the two patriarchs naturally had to celebrate.

"Hehe, Brother Lu, even if Lu An's kid can support saltpeter for a period of time this summer, if you want to get saltpeter later, it's not that simple."

"yes." Lu Dingtian sighed happily, "It's just that for this bidding, the price paid by the two of us is big enough!" ”

Although the two great families have enough background, can they not feel distressed when they take out so much silver at one time?

Although the business of the two major families is profitable, and they are all some unique businesses, their families have too many people, and there are many clansmen who need to be taken care of.

Coupled with the impact of Lu An's glassware and snowflake salt on them for several months, the Lu family's sea salt has almost completely stagnated for a few months, and the Chen family's porcelain business has also reduced most of the orders!

If this continues, the two really won't be able to hold on for too long.

Old Lady Chen nodded solemnly, "Yes, we can't wait any longer, we must find a way to fight back!" ”

"Brother Lu, although Lu An's saltpeter ice making business is profitable, after all, the time is short, and it will stop after two or three months at most.

In terms of glassware, my Chen family controls all the white sea sand, and in about a month, without the white sea sand, his glassware will not be able to hold up.

Now in his business, there is only one snowflake salt left.

Your Lu family's sea salt business has definitely been fatally affected in the past few months.

Therefore, the old man thinks that Brother Lu should also find a way to take the initiative and cut off Lu An's snowflake salt business as soon as possible, so as not to resurrect him from the dead.

Only in this way can we better negotiate with Lu An in the future, and then let him have to cooperate with us. ”

Lu Dingtian smiled confidently, "Brother Chen, rest assured, the old man has already laid out, although he may not really get the secret recipe for Lu An's production of snowflake salt in a short period of time."

However, the old man already knows the materials he needs to produce snowflake salt, and is asking the workers of the salt factory to step up their research on the method of cracking it, and I believe that there will be good news soon. ”

As soon as he said this, he saw Lu Youyi suddenly running in in a hurry.

"Father, rejoice! Great joy! ”

Lu Dingtian immediately shouted angrily, "Nonsense! Didn't you see Brother Chen here? What a system to panic into! ”

Old Lady Chen waved her hand absently, "Brother Lu doesn't have to mind, by the way, what kind of happy event is it?" ”

Lu Youyi breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a strong sense of excitement, "Father, the things you explained have an eyebrow!"

A salt worker in our salt factory has found the secret of refining snowflake salt! ”

"What?!"

When Lu Dingtian and Old Lady Chen heard this, they jumped up at the same time.

"Let's go! Let's take a look! ”

After speaking, the two clansmen hurriedly followed Lu Youyi out of the room together.
