Chapter 20 one-stop production and marketing
Wu Yanran blinked her big clear eyes, a look of hesitation swept over her face, and then the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, and a smug smile appeared.
"At least in this salt matter, it's not difficult for me!"
This has to be put now, at least you have to evaluate an engineer or something, Yu Feng thought maliciously, this little girl has this skill, even if she eats and waits for death, who will marry her in the future, but she doesn't worry about her livelihood, this whole is a little hen that lays golden eggs.
Seeing Yu Feng staring at him directly, Wu Yanran thought that he was not very satisfied with this reply, but she didn't plan to say anything more, even if Yu Feng was his benefactor, he couldn't ask her to put all the secrets in her heart together, besides, in her opinion, these secrets were harmless, at least, they wouldn't be harmful to Yu Feng.
"Then there's Miss Lao!" Yu Feng stood up and arched his hand at Wu Yanran, quite a bit of Corporal Lixian: "This salt field has a very large output, I'm afraid it can't come according to what I said to the girl a few days ago, but Yu Mou will not let the girl suffer!" ”
"This person is really real, not at all like a big salt lord who gathers hundreds of people!" Wu Yanran said in her heart: "But it's okay, take refuge in him, say everything in the open, don't worry about him having any bad intentions, if it's really a black-hearted person, my brother and sister are now under his control, I showed my mouth again, I really want to coerce me to do something, can I still not do it!" However, if he has this mentality, he will suffer a lot in this world! ”
She nodded slightly, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, and said with a smile: "My brother and sister are now in Zhaojia Village, and they can be regarded as worry-free about food and clothing, no matter how much silver they have, there is no place to put it!" You have given enough gold today, just enough to defend yourself, more may not be a good thing, you can rest assured, I will try my best to do this! ”
After this day, Zhaojia Village became even busier, and there were almost no idle people in the village, and even some elderly men and old ladies began to be idle. On the seaside, there are dozens of acres of salt pans, which have been established under the command of Wu Yanran. The things on this salt field may not be much more intense than boiling salt, even if it is not a strong laborer, it can be done. With such a large stall spreading, it is natural to need more manpower, Yu Feng only showed a little bit of style, and a large number of people in the village enthusiastically signed up, compared with recruiting helpers in other places, the people of Zhaojia Village really have too many advantages.
It is also ridiculous to say, Lingshan Salt Farm, but there are hundreds of acres of salt pans, and there are hundreds of stove households in it, compared to these people in Zhaojia Village, but they are much more professional, as for the peak season when there is a shortage of manpower, you can also hire these idle people to work, but the output of Lingshan Salt Farm is always pitifully low. It's just a short month of work, and Yu Feng's own output of sea salt has almost reached half of the output of Lingshan Salt Farm.
Yu Feng sometimes thought to himself, how incompetent the person in charge of this Lingshan Salt Farm must be to keep this output so low, the same labor, the same process, how can he be so low.
He forgot the most important point, the subjective initiative of man! Can the enthusiasm of the stove households who were exploited by the salt field be compared with the villagers of Zhaojia Village? One is to have to do it, and the other is to take the initiative to do it, and the results are naturally very different.
Not long after Liu Chengbin, the master of the inspection department, went back, he came for the second time, but this second time, he came with a dozen men and a lot of silver. In addition to the confiscated private salt, the inspection department has to pour out the private salt, and it also has to pass through the salt farm, but the output in the salt field is limited, and the salt that they can really get without opening the salt may not be much.
It's not that you have to buy it here from Yu Feng, it's just that since it's Yu Feng's own salt, then the long hairs naturally won't make a stalk in it, and the salt here is cheaper than the salt in the salt farm.
Sure enough, Yu Feng still welcomed them to come to buy salt, and as for the things they were worried about about the long-haired people robbing these salt goods halfway, it didn't happen at all, and the long-haired people didn't have bad brains and ruined their own business.
The Inspection Division does this kind of thing, and I don't know how much better it is than other people. Obviously, the salt goods bought in the hands of Yu Feng, a private salt dealer, became a grandiose official salt as soon as they were transported to the Yamen of the Inspection Department, and there was also a salt quote issued by the government, and all kinds of credentials were complete, so you can't be convinced.
Since this business is so easy to do, and there is no need to worry about other salt lords coming to eat black, the cloth ruler simply calmed down and started this hand-over-handed business. Relatively speaking, the supply is sufficient, not to mention, the money earned is much more than taking salt directly from the Lingshan Salt Farm. Through the pouring of the inspection department, the salt of the afterwind gradually spread, not only Lingshan Mansion, but also his "Yujia Salt", that is, Dengzhou, Laizhou, and even Qingzhou farther away, there are traces of his Yujia Salt.
Lingshan Salt Farm, for this situation, is also optimistic, the local people use their own salt goods, then, their own salt goods, loaded on the ship, directly transported to Zhili, or even a little farther Huainan Huaibei, wouldn't it be more profitable. Although those long hairs are vicious, they never touch the official salt, which is simply a good thing for you, me, and everyone.
In April of the sixth year of Chongzhen, Yu Feng's farewell came down, and the general flag of Lingshan Wei Thousand Households! This is not as simple as abandoning literature and martial arts, with this resignation, this residual wind can be regarded as completely missing the imperial examination. He also changed from a civilian household to a military household, although he has a bit of an official position, but the sky is pitiful, what is the difference between the general flag of a local health office and the Li Zheng of a village, Daming has always emphasized literature and light on martial arts, talking about the identity of the noble, the identity of the general flag, but the horse can't catch up with the identity of Xiucai.
This news has not been widely circulated, it is only known in a small area, and as for those officials in Lingshan City, they will naturally not be idle and pay attention to the appointment and dismissal of low-level officers in a guard station. The cloth ruler of the inspection department, I don't know where to know the news, and I sent some gifts to congratulate him, after all, although Yu Feng and him have not met, but the two are now at stake, one produces and one sells, and no one can do without it. Without the official channel of the cloth ruler, relying on Yu Feng's people to sell it alone is far from being able to digest the salt he produces now.
On May 16, the Lingshan Salt Transportation Inspection Division inspected the birthday of the cloth inspection, and held a feast, and the aftermath of the cat in Zhaojia Village also received an invitation from the cloth ruler. Bu Qi and Master Liu pondered, Yu Feng received the invitation, it was one thing whether he would come or not, but this etiquette still had to be fulfilled. At least everyone is currently in a harmonious mood, and there are large sums of money to exchange, and this invitation is also a gesture of goodwill, and there is definitely no bad intention.
Unexpectedly, Yu Feng received the invitation, but immediately decided to go to Lingshan City. This birthday is a reason, the key is that he values the ability of the cloth ruler in the officialdom, and he has always kept Zhao Zongqi's words in mind. This cloth ruler can be active to such a position, it must have considerable energy, Zhao Zongqi's influence is only in the guard, in the locality, I am afraid that he is a servant of the prefect's yamen, and his words are more effective than him. It is also good to take this opportunity to explore the bottom of this cloth ruler, you must know that the only bureaucrat of the Ming Dynasty who has a connection with Yu Feng at present, this cloth ruler is the only one.
The weather in May was already a little hot, and on the official road outside Lingshan City, a group of extremely strong men walked over.
If you look closely, you can see that these men dressed as porters, or holding flat shoulders, or carrying burdens, are faintly surrounded by a young man with a lofty temperament in the middle, and the young man is gentle, but he is dressed as a businessman, and these people walk together, and anyone will think that a young merchant and his hired porter have come to Lingshan City to do business.
This group of people is none other than Yu Feng.
Although the current relationship with the Inspection Department is acceptable, there is no need to worry about what they are playing, but Lingshan City is a big city after all, and there is not only a yamen in the City, Yu Feng still brought Liu Xiaoliu and Zhao Deng, and then selected a dozen or so people who are usually loyal and steady to protect him from his long hair. However, Wu Yanran heard that he was going to Lingshan City, and he changed into a men's clothes and wanted to follow, Yu Feng is now facing this female God of Wealth, basically responding, thinking of his more than a dozen men, guarding such a woman, and nothing can happen, so it is up to her.
It was rare for everyone to enter the city once, and they were all looking around happily, and Yu Feng was also looking around, but what he noticed were those beggars begging on the roadside, and some people with straw sticks on their heads, sitting there in a daze, these people were thin and haggard, and looked like hungry people.
What shocked Yu Feng even more was that there was no life in the eyes of these people, just like dead people, when he first came to this era, Yu Feng was already shocked by the poor life of the military households, but now it seems that although the military households are poor, compared to these people, they are not bad, at least they are still alive and happy.
Similar looks, Yu Feng has only seen in the eyes of those African disaster victims in modern television, hopeless, hopeless, and indifferent.
Liu Xiaoliu and Zhao Deng didn't seem to notice those people, they still talked and laughed and walked forward, Yu Feng was stunned for a moment and then understood, they were already used to it, but Yu Feng still asked, "Where is this person?" ”
