Chapter Ninety-Two: Delivered to the Door!
"I apologize to you on behalf of my son Zhushan!" The person who spoke was Zhou Zhushan's father, Zhou Lijie.
This person wears a sunflower round neck, a silver belt, and soap boots. His face was sharp and thin, but there was always a smile in his dark eyes.
Mrs. Zhou came to Rongcheng with Zhou Lijie this time, and the purpose was very clear, that is, to buy new salt from Liu Mo to solve the urgent need.
In his opinion, the contradiction between Zhou Zhushan and Liu Mo, without Zhou Lao Taijun coming forward, this business could not be negotiated!
"Zhushan has known Shiqi since he was a child, and he has liked this girl since he was a child, and he has mentioned to me more than once that he wants to marry her. It's a pity that the child doesn't have this blessing. Zhou Lijie said.
"It's also my fault, since he was a child, he gave whatever he wanted. So much so that he has developed such a strange temper, if he likes anything, he must get it! ”
Speaking of this, Zhou Lijie paused.
"Knowing that Liu Xian's nephew was going to marry Shiqi, the child couldn't think about it for a while, so he wanted to find someone to vent his anger. It's just that these subordinates will be wrong and almost kill someone! ”
Then, he turned his head and looked at Zhou Zhushan with an angry expression.
"Isn't that the case, rebel, you give a word!"
That's right, in order to show sincerity, Zhou Lijie walked with Zhou Zhushan this time.
Zhou Zhushan blushed, and said reluctantly, "That's the case, those fools will be wrong!" ”
Liu Mo sneered, "You can really talk about it, according to what you say." Zhou Zhushan just wanted to find someone to beat me, scare me, and make me give up Lin Shiqi, all of them were misheard by those killers! ”
What a shame!
At this time, Zhou Lijie strode forward and handed a beautiful brocade box to Liu Mo.
When I opened it, I saw a pair of exquisite jade pendants in the brocade box.
"Nephew Liu Xian, it is better to settle the grievance than to settle it, Zhushan also suffered from prison, and the people who assassinated you also lost their lives. Do you still want to accept the small gift and shake hands with my son? ”
Such a rag, you want to send me Liu Mo? Hehe!
Seeing that Liu Mo had no reaction, Zhou Lijie angrily raised his right foot and kicked Zhou Zhushan's knee, "Rebel, kneel down for Liu Xian's nephew!" He scolded sharply, "If it weren't for Liu Xian's nephew's great life, he would have been blessed by God and Buddha."
The law of the Great Xia Dynasty, if the murderer dies, you will not live today! ”
Forced by Zhou Lijie's majesty, Zhou Zhushan knelt on the ground with a pale face, "Zhou was confused for a while, and he did such a stupid thing, causing Liu Xiandi to almost die. Today, in front of the old lady and my father, I apologize to you.
You have a lot of them, so spare me this time! ”
After speaking, Zhou Zhushan kept kowtowing.
"Knock knock!" The wooden floor slammed.
Mrs. Zhou was silent, looking at Liu Mo lightly.
The meaning is clear, the decision is yours.
"Hey..."Liu Mo sighed secretly.
"You moved out of Mrs. Zhou, and you made such a bitter plan, what can I do except choose to forgive?"
So Liu Mo hurriedly leaned down and helped Zhou Zhushan up: "Brother Zhou, they are all their own brothers, just make it clear if you misunderstand!" ”
"Hahaha, thank you Liu Xian's nephew for ignoring the past suspicions! My aunt is really blessed to have a grandson-in-law like you! Zhou Lijie said with a smile, "I'm ashamed to say that Zhou came to Rongcheng this time, and there is another thing to discuss with his nephew." ”
"Please!"
Zhou Lijie subconsciously glanced at his son who caused trouble for himself all day long, "Even this sharp-beaked monkey gills should also pee and take care of themselves!" I actually want to touch the official salt industry, not three, not four, I just want to eat swan fart!
Now, you're in trouble, right? Don't hurry up and ask Zhou Xian's nephew to save you! ”
After a meal, Zhou Zhushan's face was red, and he couldn't say a word for a long time.
"Stinky boy, what are you doing there, don't kneel down!" Zhou Lijie raised his voice again.
"It doesn't have to be this way!" Liu Mo stepped forward and grabbed Zhou Lijie, who wanted to do it, "It's all my own people, I have something to discuss!" ”
The face project has to be done enough, and it will be good to kill you when the time comes, hehe, you will send it to the door yourself!
Zhou Lijie snorted heavily at Zhou Zhushan, and then smiled again, "Nephew Liu Xian, dare to ask you how much new salt can be produced in Xiangshan County every month?" ”
"Haha, Uncle Zhou Shi, how much new salt do you need every month?"
Zhou Lijie touched his nose and said, "I need 700,000 catties of new salt every month!" ”
Boy!
700,000 catties a month, 8.4 million catties a year, 4,200 tons of salt.
Rongcheng is not a big city, with a population of 2,780,000, which is equivalent to nearly 31 catties of salt a year for every ordinary person in Rongcheng.
If calculated on a monthly basis, each person has three catties of salt a month, far exceeding the amount of modern earthlings! Moreover, this still counts all the heads, and it does not exclude the people of Rongcheng who can't afford to buy salt.
Your Zhou family is greedy enough and bold enough to sign an order without doing market research at all.
On the other hand, Huang Shouren is also ruthless enough to force others to a dead end.
Fortunately, I, Liu Mo, had prostituted more than a dozen new salt processing plants for nothing before, otherwise even I, the big guy who crossed over, would not have been able to complete such a large amount.
"Haha, I thought it would be much, a small thing, a small thing!" Liu Mo patted his chest and hugged him, "Leave this matter to me Liu Mo." The old gang leader of the Rongcheng Salt Gang Palace, I have already explored the wind with Lord He of this county.
Buying salt from salt merchants who have joined the Salt Gang for sale is not a gang rule. ”
Zhou Lijie sighed at this time, "That's very good." ”
However, in the next second, years of business acumen made him sense that something was wrong. "Already sighed? This kid has already made enough preparations, digging a pit and waiting for me to jump! ”
Although he was very unhappy in his heart, Zhou Lijie could only endure this evil breath.
Seeing this, Liu Mo was overjoyed, and then immediately opened the next topic, "Uncle Shi, you and I will talk about the price now, right?" ”
The price of salt in the Great Xia Dynasty was almost the same as that of the Ming Dynasty on Earth, and the price of salt fluctuated with the fluctuations of the situation, and the price of salt in different regions also varied greatly.
Taking Jianglin Mansion as an example, when the price of official salt is low, it is about four or five wen a catty, and when it is expensive, it is about twenty or thirty wen a catty.
Now that the war has just ended, the price of salt has been controlled to a certain extent, about 178 wen a catty. Of course, this is the salt eaten by ordinary people, and the "refined salt" eaten by wealthy people is about three times that of ordinary salt.
Liu Mo's new salt is of better quality than "refined salt", and according to reason, the price can be sold for about 50 yuan.
However, since we want to do something and make new salt popular, the price must be kept down.
Therefore, when he handed over the price to the Salt Gang at that time, he completely set the price according to the price of ordinary salt, at 15 wen per catty.
Zhou Zhushan wants to compete with Liu Mo, and the price naturally cannot be high, and it is also priced at fifteen wen per catty.
On the side of the salt gang, a comprehensive consideration was made, and finally the price was priced at a floating price of 10~20 Wen/catty.
Zhou Lijie said naturally: "Nephew Liu Xian, what do you think of ten wen per catty?" ”
"What the hell are you, I still want to make money if you ask for it!" Liu Mo scolded secretly. "It's you who give your face shamelessly, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
So he cleared his throat and said, "Uncle Shi, what I have in my hand is 'refined salt'!" As far as I know, the price of each catty of 'refined salt' is about 50 wen per catty. ”
"Virtuous nephew, you..."Zhou Lijie turned pale with fright after hearing this.
