Time flies!

A week has passed in the blink of an eye.

The glorious deeds of Cao Yu selling salt have been completely spread all over the streets and alleys.

Walk casually in the vegetable market, or on the downtown street.

It's still a teahouse, and you can hear the people's praise for Cao Yu.

It could have been an ordinary thing.

There's no way, if you want to blame it, blame the big-eared thief, a great good man, what he did before was too hated.

Deliberately raising the price of salt so much is simply killing them.

Now I see the big-eared thief lifting a stone and smashing himself out.

Can the common people not be happy!

"Come to Xiaoer, the amount of salt today is quite sufficient!"

A guest officer picked up a cup of tea and poured it into his mouth, smashing his mouth.

"Then this credit will be on the head of our Cao Yu Gongzi, or he alone will reduce the price of salt in Xudu so low, we don't dare to lose money and put such a lot of salt!"

"Speaking of this Cao Yu Gongzi! This is really not a good person, he was unknown in the past, and he was only a concubine, but he didn't expect this successive means to be really powerful! The tea-drinking guest continued.

But as soon as he said this, a few people around him were not happy.

It's as if his idol has been insulted.

"How do you speak, what is a concubine, even if the identity of the sixth prince is not so orthodox, he is better than many people."

"If it weren't for the help of the sixth prince this time, I'm afraid everyone wouldn't even be able to afford salt!"

"It's not just a matter of salt, during the drought before, it was the sixth prince who invented the tool for irrigation, which saved everyone's food!"

"There is also that multiplication formula, if you want me to say, Cao Yu Gongzi was just reluctant to come forward in the past, but at the current crisis moment in Xudu, he can't bear to suffer the people, so he has to come forward."

"That's right! You old boy, if you dare to slander Cao Yu Gongzi again, Hugh will ask us to turn our faces with you for a while. ”

The guest officer who was drinking tea earlier heard everyone around him suddenly get up and slap him together.

Seeing that he was about to be angry, why did he shrink his neck and say sorry to the people around him.

I muttered secretly in my heart, I didn't seem to have offended Cao Yu's son just now.

However, he definitely didn't dare to talk about Cao Yu's son anymore.

To tell the truth, he is also more grateful to Cao Yugongzi.

If it weren't for Cao Yu's low-priced salt.

He also couldn't pull Xudu's salt to Xuzhou to sell.

Earn several times the middleman price difference in the middle.

Now the local salt merchants in Xuzhou are about to vomit blood.

But he is money, and his hands are about to go numb.

And at this time in a mansion outside the suburbs.

Cao Yu was lying on the chair, fanning his fan, drinking juice and basking in the sun.

This week, I hardly went out.

But also because of his merit in inventing salt.

He was promoted again.

became the only grade in history at the age of 20 to become a five-grade official of the dynasty.

To know under normal circumstances.

I'm afraid that those people of the same age in this grade won't even get a name for themselves.

Not to mention any five-grade officials.

However, Cao Yu did become more anxious the more he was promoted.

Just when Cao Yu was bored and in a daze.

There was a sudden knock on the door.

Knock knock!

Crunch –

Because the door was not closed, it was ajar, and then there was the sound of a wooden door being pushed open.

I saw a young man in a white robe walk in respectfully.

"My lord, our salt has completely monopolized the salt merchants in Xuzhou, and the salt merchants in the surrounding Yuan Shao are also interested in coming to us to buy goods."

"Yuan Shao's salt merchant?" Cao Yu was still lying on the recliner and nodded, but then his eyes opened slightly.

If at this time, the salt merchant is spread to Yuan Shao, if the operation is too anxious.

I'm afraid it will easily cause backlash.

Especially during the sensitive period of the recent defeat of Yuan Shu.

But if you can take this opportunity to break into Yuan Shao's interior.

It can be regarded as a good situation for the future.

After all, Lao Cao and Yuan Shao will have a battle between Guandu sooner or later.

"My lord, this is our account book for half a month! A total of 5 million dollars were earned! Half of them were eaten by Liu Bei. ”

Seeing that Cao Yu didn't react, Sima Fu took out another account book that had been prepared in advance.

To be honest, when he first read this ledger, he was greatly surprised.

Because he knew that the price of salt set by Cao Yu at that time was not high at all.

A pound of salt will make 5 dollars.

But every time I think about it, it only takes half a month to sell so much.

"Hmmm! That's a lot of money, it's about the same, but it would be nice to have a tenth of it in the future. Cao Yu took the account book and glanced at it slightly, then threw it aside.

After all, it is the first time in history that the price of salt has been lowered so low.

It is also inevitable that the common people will have a retaliatory madness.

It is even estimated that a family has directly robbed all the salt for a year.

So the next sales will definitely decline.

But even so, a profit of 200,000 yuan a month is very good.

And that's just the profit of a single city.

In the future, if you add some more city profits.

That's probably more than all the taxes of Xu Du in a year.

And in the future, there will be a more profitable wine product.

It's only going to get more.
