Chapter 290: Decentralized Industries

Heaven and earth

Cui Sanye never thought that after such a huge commercial confrontation, Li Xiang actually invited himself to this place, although this is the best entertainment place in Chang'an City, but Cui Sanye is not very optimistic about women, so he was uncomfortable when he came here, but then again, in such a place, others will not be overheard, after all, Chang'an City is full of ears.

"The third master doesn't have to worry too much, except for the two of us in this house, I didn't let other people in, I know what the third master thinks in his heart, so I let them quit, the wine and food here are also very good, let's talk while eating."

Cui Sanye is not close to women, except for his own wife and two concubines, he has never heard of any women outside Cui Sanye, and Li Xiang naturally will not have any connection with Fengchen women, but this place is relatively hidden, if it is changed to other places, it is inevitable that someone will pay attention.

"Only His Highness can find such a place, people outside are afraid that they will want to break their heads, I guess they won't know that we are talking here, this is His Highness's territory, and there is naturally no need to worry about security, but I can't delay it for too long, there are too many urgent reports from all over the country during this period of time."

Cui Sanye sighed, although they survived and did not have any losses in this catastrophe, but the major families regarded the Cui family as enemies, and some of the projects they cooperated with the Cui family were all torn up, which also brought certain losses to the Cui family, but compared with the large amount of food in Li Xiang's hands, those losses are probably insignificant, even if the Cui family turns against the major families, it does not dare to turn against Li Xiang.

"I know that the third master has lost too much for a period of time, so I am ready to give the third master some compensation, and my grain is about to come down, if the third master is willing, I will never bargain if you say a price, as long as I make a little profit, we can continue to do business."

Although Li Xiang also began to open grain stores across the country, but compared with the Cui family, it is a small thing after all, even if you open it, I am afraid there are not many customers, so sell the grain to the Cui family, and let the Cui family's people distribute it to all parts of the country, this is the biggest profit, of course, we must be low in terms of price, otherwise people have a lot of land at home, why should people sell your grain?

Li Xiang did this to reassure Cui Sanye, since Cui Sanye left that day, every night as long as he closes his eyes and thinks about where Li Xiang's grain will be sold, no matter where it is listed in the country, it will have a certain impact on the Cui family's grain, and now Li Xiang is going to hand it over to him, and it is also a reassuring pill for him, and we are also talking about it.

"Thank you so much, Your Highness, I will purchase this batch of grain at the market price, and let the people below hand it over, in addition, it can also be transported to overseas countries, including some tribes on the grassland, I can distribute them."

Cui Sanye is also showing his strength step by step, in this era, grain is hard currency, it is very important in Datang, and it is even more important outside Datang, after all, there is less land for growing grain in surrounding countries, so they need to buy a lot of grain every year.

"This matter has been settled, and I have to return the salt market to the third master, after all, I just borrowed it a little, and I can't stand here without leaving."

After this turmoil, almost all of the country's salt market is in Li Xiang's hands, and some of the other major families are still in their hands, but they don't have much competitiveness, but Li Xiang also knows that he can't eat the whole cake, and after dividing it with Li Shimin, Li Xiang also gave the Cui family a piece.

"Your Highness, please speak up."

Ever since Cui Sanye met Li Xiang, this guy has always been pulling things to his home, when can he take out the things at home and share them? What's more, this is still a market for salt.

In Cui Sanye's eyes, everything Li Xiang does has a purpose, and we can't take anything from his hands without asking the purpose clearly, if you see the money, the money will burn your hands sooner or later.

"I can't eat it alone, and even if I can, it's too attention-grabbing, so I might as well exchange half of the market for other industries in your hands, such as transportation and shipping."

After listening to Li Xiang's words, Cui Sanye understood what was going on, the business layout of the big family must be dispersed, and you can have a dominant position in an industry, but you can't monopolize this industry, once you monopolize it, your profits are the highest, but the risk has also become the highest.

What Li Xiang has to do now is to diversify his investment, take out a part of the salt market, and then exchange it for other industries, the Cui family is involved in more industries, this kind of exchange involves complex exchanges, as long as the two of them establish a goal, then the rest will be handed over to the people below.

"Your Highness is far-sighted, no wonder you can ride on the neck of our old guys, if I could have the vision of His Highness, the current Cui family may be more powerful, but unfortunately I don't, so I can only passively cooperate with His Highness, or what I just said, let the following stewards hand over, neither of us will suffer."

Cui Sanye said with a wry smile, although Li Xiang is a tone of discussion, but he can't refuse at all, the grain in Li Xiang's hand is like a giant sword, always hanging on the head of the Cui family, unless the Cui family gives up the grain trade, otherwise, this giant sword threatens them all the time, the grain trade is also the business that the Cui family started to buy, and it is also the business they rely on for survival, how can they give up?

"Then we're done talking about all the serious things, let's have a drink together?"

Li Xiang said happily, the salt market in his hand is too big, and exchanging some other markets is very healthy for Li Xiang's business empire, if he keeps it in his hands all the time, maybe Li Shimin will have to do something to him, after all, in addition to the imperial court, Li Xiang is now the second salt merchant.

Now that there is a similar third salt merchant, the imperial court can also breathe a sigh of relief, the more complex the industry involved, the more difficult it is for the imperial court to deal with the commercial layout of Zhizhibao......
