"Sixty-three dollars! Sixty-three dollars! Cui Min kept pacing in the room, babbling in his mouth.

Nowadays, the Cui family's private salt production still uses the method of boiling sea into salt, not to mention the low output, and the additional cost of firewood.

At present, the official salt of the Qin State is sold for sixty-three yuan, and if they sell it at this price, not only will they not earn a penny, but they will have to pay for it.

The idea of fighting a price war is just fleeting in Cui Jing's mind, just kidding, there is no problem with bullying foreign salt merchants in the price war, but the other party is Qin State.

The great cause of the Qin country is great, I am afraid that his Cui family will be emptied, and the Qin country will not lose a single hair.

"That's ...... I will first send someone to contact the Lu family and the Gao family to see if the price of official salt in our place is low, or if it has been reduced.

As for the current official salt, go and buy, sell as much as you want, and try to delay the transmission of the news of the price reduction of official salt. ”

"The price of the Qin State is tax, and the cost is definitely lower than that of sixty-three yuan, and the cost is so low that either a large salt mine has been discovered, or there is a new way to make salt." Cui Min paced around the room, forcing himself to calm down and analyze.

And the state of Qin, playing hard is that the designation will not work.

Not to mention the Cui family, even the nobles with names and surnames in the entire Qi country may not be enough to fight the Qin State, and they really have the ability to lift the table.

"Father, the Qin State has recently been in Langya, Handan, and sent to Yantian, will it be related to this official salt price reduction?" Cui Jing asked.

"In this way, send someone to find a way to investigate and see if there is any new salt making method in the Qin State." Cui Min frowned and spoke.

The Cui family has long heard of the fact that the Qin State's extensive conscription in the coastal areas occurred in Yantian, after all, the Cui family is the tiger sitting on the ground here, but the Qin State's conscription has become the norm, which year is not a big levy? Therefore, they did not pay attention to it.

But now it seems that there must be something strange in it.

"If it's a new way of making salt...... Then the Cui family will not break the foundation. Cui Min sighed.

"Raised by a handmaid!" Cui Min scolded again.

"Father, don't worry, if there is just a new method of salt making, no matter how strict the Qin State is, it will take a year and a half at most, and we will be able to get the news." Cui Jing was comforted.

This is true, the Cui family is the top powerful in the Qi country, there are people up and down, and salt production inevitably requires a large number of levies, it is impossible to be airtight, after all, the Cui family is the tiger here.

"Besides, even if the salt production is lost, the family has accumulated a lot of wealth, and the fertile land is ......."

"Just lowering the price of official salt, you can't control us."

Although private salt has always been the main source of income for the Cui family, as a top nobleman, how can the Cui family's economic source be so single?

After so many years of accumulation, their land is calculated by the hectare, their shops and goods are all over the Langya area, they have almost grasped the dumping of all the commodities of this generation, the Cui family has thousands of slaves, tenant farmers, slave handicraftsmen, and the total number of people serving the Cui family is more than tens of thousands.

The population shrouded by the Cui family's fame is as high as hundreds of thousands.

The Cui family, but the top nobles who have existed since the establishment of the Qi State, although the Tian family suffered heavy losses when they were in charge of Qi, they still stand to this day and should not be underestimated.

The aristocrats who are related to the Cui family are all over the Qi region and even the world, and the political connections of the Cui family can even reach Jiuqing, and in the Langya area, a large number of officials are from the Cui family.

The Cui family alone has hundreds of dead soldiers, not to mention those who have already walked out of the Cui family.

They went down to the localities, to the officials......

Even if the private salt business is gone, it can still live very well, not to mention, the Qin State can't prevent the Cui family from stealing secrets.

"The Qin State belongs to him Zhao Zheng, but Langya belongs to the Cui family!"

……

On the other side of the East China Sea border......

Inside the mansion of Canghai Jun.

Canghaijun and Zhang Liang sat opposite each other.

"Ovary, this is the immortal seed that is said to have a yield of up to 1,000 catties per mu in the Qin Kingdom."

Canghaijun smiled and took out three things.

"This is corn, it is said that the yield per mu is more than 900 catties, this is sweet potato, the yield per mu is as high as 6,000 catties, this is the potato, the yield per mu is as high as two or three thousand catties." Canghaijun had a smile on his face.

"Ying Zheng is really lucky, the filthy people gather overseas, and I have never seen such a strange thing, that is, I have to help them buy grain and cultivation tools, salt and weapons, Ying Zheng just sent Xu Fu to the sea, and he can get this immortal grain...... Canghai Jun's tone was a little emotional.

"Who would have thought that Xu Fu was stranded in Fusang, but there was another Zhao Si who came back from the boat, and even if he returned, he would bring back such immortal food."

Zhang Liang nodded expressionlessly, looking at the three new grains in front of him.

To be honest, except for the slightly better corn appearance, sweet potatoes and potatoes are not soiled, and they have nothing to do with fairy food at all.

"How much grain did Canghaijun get?" Zhang Liang put the corn, potatoes, and sweet potatoes in his hands one by one, and asked after playing with them.

"Sancheng...... I can only get 30% of the grain sent from the East China Sea. Canghaijun sighed.

"After all, this is a grain seed with a yield of several thousand catties per mu, and each family is rushing to ask for it, and each family has connections, so I can't tell too much, I tried my best to buy it, and I only took down more than 200 catties of seeds."

Zhang Liang nodded......

He didn't doubt that the nobles of the various families had a hot eye for the immortal seeds.

The aristocracy is the one who wants to take advantage of the bargain.

The production of three kinds of immortal grains in the Qin State caused a sensation in the world, and the court decided to promote the place, and the nobles of all families couldn't wait.

In a batch of grain distribution places, the first to get the immortal grain seeds is definitely not Qianshou.

You have to wait for the nobles to give priority to the distribution before the remaining ten percent of the seeds can be distributed.

The nobles are also the people......

Who is this fairy food planted and not planted?

Isn't it promoted to the aristocracy? The aristocracy pays taxes!

The government's performance indicators are only to promote immortal grain, and there is no explicit provision that the first seed in Guizhou must be planted, and besides, the grain allocated by each county is only a few thousand catties, even if it is distributed, it is not enough.

"The price of salt has dropped." Zhang Liang pondered for a moment and then raised his head to look at Canghai Jun.

"Now the price of salt in the East China Sea is only eighty-six yuan, which is lower than the price of private salt, Canghai Jun can buy more official salt and sell it to the filthy people, as for these grains, they will be given away for nothing." Zhang Liang pondered for a moment and spoke.

"These two hundred catties of grain are a waste of energy...... Canghai Jun was stunned when he heard this.

His country has been destroyed, although Canghai Jun was born as a filthy person, but as he lived more and more days in the Central Plains, he was gradually accepted by the Central Plains nobles, and he was also mixed with the name of Canghai Jun.

The so-called restoration of the country, the so-called great enmity, is getting more and more distant in Canghaijun's heart, but anti-Qin and scolding Qin are politically correct in the aristocratic circle.

To be honest, there were only more than 10,000 filthy people in the country before Canghai Jun, who lived in poverty and could only fish and hunt for a living.

Now it is becoming more and more popular, and it has been accepted by the nobles of the Central Plains, and Canghai Jun can open up communication channels with overseas filthy people.

The current Canghai Jun is no longer the Canghai Jun who was determined to restore the country.

"Canghai Jun has a lot of good names among the filthy people, Canghai Jun has a foothold in the sea, and he also relies on overseas filthy people, and the sale of salt and iron grain farming tools is a business, but grain is the root of life." Zhang Liang took a deep look at Canghaijun.

"Canghai-kun, you are the chief of the filthy people, you were and you are now, it's not that no one wanted to bypass the canghai-jun and trade with the filthy people before, the price is not cheaper than the canghai-kun, why do the filthy people only recognize you canghai-jun?" Zhang Liang spoke seriously.

When Canghai Jun heard this, he was silent for a long time and said, "Cheng, I listen to the ovary." ”

Zhang Liang nodded, pondered for a moment, and then continued to speak: "Recently, try to find a way to buy more weapons and armor......"

"Weapons and armor are not easy to get, and the price is not affordable for the filthy people, you know that the filthy people are barren, even if I can get a lot of weapons and armor, they can't afford it." Canghaijun frowned and spoke.

"Why did the ovary suggest this?"

Zhang Liang was silent for a moment, raised his head and said: "Let's take precautions......"

"The price of official salt in the Qin State suddenly dropped lower than that of private salt, and three kinds of new grain with a yield of up to 1,000 catties per mu were distributed to the localities, but the tax did not mean to increase...... I always felt that Qin Guo might have other moves. ”

"Qin's domestic troubles are not only in the nobility, but also in the people's anger, the forced labor is not stopped, the taxes are twenty times that of the ancient, the laws and regulations are complicated, the minor crimes are punished heavily, the people are tired and weak, and the people's wealth is demanded, but now he has suddenly changed his character...... Don't cut on Qianshou......"

"But will the Qin State put down the knife? Canghai-kun? ”

"If this knife is not aimed at Qiantou, who will it be directed at?"

Canghai Jun was shocked when he heard this, he had always believed in Zhang Liang's judgment, and Zhang Liang's words were obvious enough.

The Qin State suddenly changed his temperament, giving the small people a chance to live, and he did not take the opportunity to raise taxes and squeeze the head of the Qianshou with a grain yield of several thousand catties per mu.

With the temperament of the tiger and wolf Qin, this knife does not fall on Qianshou, it falls elsewhere.

Now that the Qin State has no external troubles, then this knife ......

"I see! During this time, I will try to buy as many armor weapons as possible. Canghaijun nodded seriously.

"Overseas filthy people, if there is a dispute, Canghai Jun also has to bother to mediate, now that he has new grain, Canghai Jun will try to send more people, let them learn to farm, and help them...... Let them learn to farm, learn manners, instead of daily strife. Now that the Qin State has destroyed the Six Kingdoms, and the new Qiantou has issued an order to bring troops, there are dirty differences among the nobles...... There is only one person in the world who has the opportunity to command millions of people, Canghai Jun alone. Zhang Liang said seriously.

Canghaijun has been trying his best to drill into the circle of nobles in the Central Plains, Zhang Liang can see it clearly, and Zhang Liang is too aware of the virtues of the old nobles of the Six Kingdoms.

But now...... It's not like it used to be!

Hearing this, Canghaijun nodded seriously, and discussed for a long time before walking out of the house.

Only Zhang Liang was left, and he closed the bamboo slip heavily and let out a long sigh.

"What I feared the most, happened......"
