Chapter 120: Bloodletting for the Zhao and Song Dynasty
…
In the face of Jiang Hongfei's undisguised insistence on Hu Sanniang, Hu Chengdu was sweating urgently!
In the past few years, Hu Cheng has been taking care of his family's business, and he has taken care of the Hu family's business in an orderly manner, how can he be a stupid person who is incapable?
After thinking about it for a while, Hu Chengcheng understood that Jiang Hongfei did not allow them to bet on the Hu family, but forced them to choose one of the two Hu families, either to throw himself into Shuibo Liangshan, or to continue to tie up with Zhujiazhuang and make Shuibo Liangshan an enemy.
In other words, the Zhu family forced the Hu family to marry not long ago, and they actually had the same idea, and they also wanted to Zhu Jiazhuang and Hu Jiazhuang tied together to save the Hu family from being half-hearted.
After returning from the appointment, Hu Cheng heard his father Hu Rong say that Zhujiazhuang was ready to find an opportunity to teach Li Jiazhuang a lesson.
Even a local Haoqiang like Zhujiazhuang does not allow Lijiazhuang and Hujiazhuang to be at both ends, not to mention the Shuibo Liangshan that is now in full swing?
"It's ridiculous that my Hu family still wants to bet on both ends without putting their eggs in one basket!" Hu Cheng thought bitterly.
"It's still Li Ying, this old fox, is amazing!" Hu Cheng couldn't help but sigh again.
Truly!
Compared with Zhujiazhuang, who was blinded by utilitarianism and was bent on being the enemy of Shuibo Liangshan, Hujiazhuang wanted not to offend both ends, and wanted to do business with Shuibo Liangshan while marrying the Zhu family, Li Jiazhuang under the auspices of Li Ying kept a certain safe distance from Zhujiazhuang, and reluctantly cut off the contradiction with Shuibo Liangshan.
- Even if it is Zhujiazhuang who wins in the future, Li Jiazhuang, who is not completely at odds with Zhujiazhuang, will never be defeated.
Looking at Hujiazhuang again, there is obviously a trend of Zhu Bajie looking in the mirror and not being a person inside and out.
Hu Cheng pondered for a long time before he said: "It's a big matter, the villain will go back and discuss with his father, and then give an answer to the owner of the village, okay?" ”
"You can't do it." Jiang Hongfei smiled.
After speaking, Jiang Hongfei beckoned, and Ling Zhen came over to greet Du Xing and Hu Cheng.
Then, Jiang Hongfei looked at Li Jun, who had grown up, thick eyebrows, big eyes, red skin, a mustache like wire, and a voice like a bronze bell.
"Who would have thought that this person is the final winner of the Water Margin world, and he is also the person with the best ending among the heroes of Liangshan!"
Jiang Hongfei looked at Li Jun and thought.
In fact, aside from Li Jun, he can eventually become the king of Siam.
Li Jun is also the leading figure among the heroes of Yangsan.
Visionary, rescued Song Jiang twice, held an important position in Liangshan but was very low-key, and later did not recognize Song Jiang, but he was still able to make repeated military exploits under Song Jiang, maintain his status, and at the same time "Taoguang Yanghui", seek another plan, and finally find an opportunity after meeting Fei Bao and others, and create another career, like a "real dragon" into the sea.
It can be said that Li Jun is a truly hidden Liangshan hero, and he is also a person who is really capable of doing big things.
It is no wonder that Li Junneng became the fourth-generation leader of Shuibo Liangshan, and the only leader who found a truly acceptable ending for the heroes of Liangshan.
Just when Jiang Hongfei looked at Li Junhe and thought about Li Jun, Li Jun had already pushed the golden mountain, poured the jade pillar, and bowed down:
"The younger brother's surname is Li Mingjun, and his ancestor is from Luzhou. Specializing in supporting boats in the Yangtze River for a living, he can understand water. Everyone calls the little brother to be a mixed river dragon, and Li Jun is. Now the younger brother is mainly engaged in this private salt business, and he has friends in the entire Jianghuai area. ”
From Li Jun's answer, Jiang Hongfei has already confirmed that Li Jun is indeed smart.
Moreover, Jiang Hongfei dared to conclude that Li Jun must have taken the initiative to be the last to get off the ship.
- In this way, Li Jun can expose his family through these heroes and heroes, and know where there are blind spots of power, so that he has loopholes to exploit.
And the reason why Li Jun didn't choose his Jiangxi main attack was mainly because among the heroes who came this time, there were two forces that could cover Jiangxi - one of them was Fang La's Manichaeism.
To be honest, Li Jun's power, compared with Manichaeism and another Jiangxi hero, is not enough to see at all.
In this case, if Li Jun chooses the Jiangxi market, he will probably not even be able to drink the soup.
As a result, Li Jun had the courage to report to the Jianghuai region, which was not very competitive, hoping to bite off a large piece of fat from the Jianghuai region.
Jiang Hongfei helped Li Jun up and said, "I'll take you over." ”
When Li Jun heard this, he hurriedly followed.
Jiang Hongfei said to Li Jun as if he was chatting with an old friend for many years: "Our business is huge, and the interests of too many people have been touched, and if you are not careful, you may fold into it......"
How smart Li Jun is, how can he not hear it, Jiang Hongfei has already seen his old bottom?
Therefore, if he Li Jun wants to go to the Jianghuai region where he can't cover it to sell refined salt, it is impossible - it is not that Jiang Hongfei does not give it to him, but if he gives it to him, it may harm him.
What Jiang Hongfei said, Li Jun didn't know.
However, among these heroes and heroes who came this time, the worst ones are also local bigwigs at the level of Song Jiang and Chao Gai, whose influence, not to mention covering one or two roads, must be covered in at least a few states and counties, Li Jun, the one-sixth tyrant in Jieyang Town, is really not enough to see.
But Li Jun only got the small market in Jieyang Town, and Li Jun, who finally caught a chance to make a fortune, was really unwilling!
After ordering a few words from Li Jun, Jiang Hongfei stopped the topic, and then explained a little about what he had just insisted on Hu Sanniang:
"How can a woman be worthy of my personal opening, what I want is actually his attitude to the family......"
In a few words, Jiang Hongfei made it clear that the grievances between Shuibo Liangshan and Zhujiazhuang, the alliance between Sanzhuang, and the current attitude of Lijiazhuang and Hujiazhuang.
After Jiang Hongfei's explanation, Li Jun understood that Jiang Hongfei used the simplest method to force Hujiazhuang and Zhujiazhuang to separate, so that Shuibo Liangshan could eliminate the last threat in his sphere of influence.
Li Jun fully understands this.
On the side of the couch, how can you allow others to snore?
The group of people in Zhujiazhuang were full of thoughts about helping the Zhao and Song Dynasty courts eliminate Shuibo Liangshan, and they wanted to exchange the heroes of Liangshan for fame and fortune, and Jiang Hongfei of course wanted to eliminate them.
And the differentiation of Sanzhuang is definitely the first step to eliminate Zhujiazhuang.
Now that Li Jiazhuang has made a wise choice, he can ignore this threat for the time being.
And Hujiazhuang is still wavering, it is necessary to force the people of Hujiazhuang, otherwise, it is impossible to determine whether Hujiazhuang is friend or foe Shuibo Liangshan, it is indeed not easy to formulate a battle plan to attack Zhujiazhuang.
When he was less than 100 meters away from the warehouse, Jiang Hongfei stopped, and then said to Li Jun: "Come with me, I can teach you to do great things, instead of being a smuggler of salt for the rest of your life." ”
Li Jun never expected that Jiang Hongfei would throw an olive branch to him!
Therefore, for a while, Li Jun, who had never thought about this kind of thing, really didn't know whether to accept Jiang Hongfei's solicitation.
Jiang Hongfei didn't urge Li Jun, but said to him: "You don't have to answer me in a hurry, let's go and sell the refined salt first." ”
After that, Jiang Hongfei took Li Jun to the front of the warehouse and said loudly:
"Xiao Ke knows, many of you are skeptical, worried about the quality and quantity of refined salt, is it enough for so many of us to make a fortune? Here, Xiao Ke won't explain too much, everyone will take your own eyes later. ”
As soon as Jiang Hongfei's voice fell, a Liangshan soldier opened the door of the warehouse, and then more than a hundred Liangshan soldiers entered the warehouse with torches and illuminated the warehouse.
Next, Jiang Hongfei personally took the lead in entering the warehouse.
After coming in, a group of heroes and heroes confirmed that this warehouse, which has a landing area of more than ten acres and is at least five zhang high, is really neatly packed with dense sacks.
Sharp-eyed people find these sacks slightly different from the sacks that hold grain.
"It's all refined salt!?" Someone asked incredulously.
Jiang Hongfei didn't talk nonsense, but directly asked someone to bring hundreds of short knives and asked a group of heroes and heroes to see it themselves.
A smuggler named Ma Shan, who took a short knife and pulled out a bag of salt at random, threw it on the ground, and then slashed it open.
But seeing that the sack broke in response to the sound, the refined salt as white as snow gushed out from the breach, making a pleasant sound of "brushing".
Ma Shanqiang held back his excitement and reached out to probe in the salt bag, but did not encounter any slightly larger salt balls, all of which were so fine salt grains.
Seeing this, Ma Shan's face was already in ecstasy.
But Ma Shan still twisted out a small pinch of refined salt, put it in his mouth and tasted it, and then said with a face full of enjoyment: "I have been selling salt for 20 years, and I have never seen such good salt, everyone come and take a look!" ”
Everyone stepped forward to check it out, and then they all praised the quality of the refined salt.
Next, everyone randomly drew out dozens of packs of refined salt, opened it and saw that the quality was all average.
At this point, a group of heroes and heroes in the rivers and lakes fully believed that this huge warehouse was full of refined salt, and then believed that Jiang Hongfei could indeed make a fortune for everyone present.
Who thinks, at this time, Jiang Hongfei said: "This is just a drop in the ocean, such refined salt, how much I want in Liangshan, as long as you want, at any time, in any quantity, I can guarantee Liangshan!" ”
When the vast majority of people heard Jiang Hongfei's words, they were overjoyed and felt that they had found a stable way to make money.
But there are still people who are interested in general.
These people are Fang Yuan's gang, Tian Bao's gang, and Wang Qing's gang.
What is the road?
In fact, with their size and ambition, they can't look down on this little profit at all.
Jiang Hongfei saw it and asked with a smile: "What, how many of you are not interested?" ”
Tian Bao said: "Brother Jiang, with the relationship between you and me, I have something to say." ”
Jiang Hongfei said: "Virtuous brother, please speak up." ”
Tian Bao was not polite, and said bluntly: "With such high-quality and good salt, the cost of collecting it from Guizhai should not be low?" Coupled with the profits of you and me, the price at which it is sold, I'm afraid it's still above the official salt, how big a market can it be? ”
When Tian Bao said this, he was really not talking to Jiang Hongfei to lower the price, but talking about the matter.
Salt is a thing, although it is expensive in this world, but a pound is only a few tens of money, if you can't go up, how much can you earn?
In the eyes of outsiders, the refined salt of Shuibo Liangshan, with such a high quality, has to take the high-end route properly.
And the high-end route means that this amount cannot be walked.
Besides, if this refined salt is transported to the Hedong region, I don't know how many state capitals it will have to pass through on the way.
Don't look at it, thousands of heavily armed troops are dispatched, and the local government pretends to be deaf and dumb.
But if it is against the caravan selling smuggled salt, the government has always been extremely competent, after all, they rely on this to make money.
If you want to pass one level after another, you must go up and down.
In this way, it will definitely not be in vain, otherwise there would not be so many people who have traveled thousands of miles to do this business.
But for big forces such as Fang La, Tian Hu, and Wang Qing, making this money is chicken ribs, tasteless food, and it is a pity to abandon it, in short, the attraction is limited.
In fact, before they came, Fang La, Tian Hu, and Wang Qing didn't want to do the business of refined salt, and they came here just because of Jiang Hongfei's face, and by the way, they talked to Jiang Hongfei about other things, such as how to unite against the Zhao and Song dynasties.
Tian Bao just said the true thoughts of Fang La, Tian Hu, and Wang Qing at this time.
Jiang Hongfei listened patiently, and then asked a group of heroes and heroes: "Among you, is there anyone who is familiar with the price of salt, can you tell Xiao Ke about it?" ”
Ma Shanchong gave up his hand to everyone: "It's ugly to be ugly." ”
"Let's start with the price of salt in the north. When it comes to the price of salt in the north, we have to mention the salt. Henan, Hebei, west of Caopu, and east of Qinfeng, all eat salt solution. The price of salt issued to officials and businessmen was 200 yuan per seat of salt during the Yuan You period, and now, although the price has changed, it is still relatively stable, and has been hovering between 50 or 70 wen per catty. In Hedong, there is also salt produced by the water conservancy superintendent of Bingzhou and Fenzhou, and the quality of the salt is very poor, so the price is much lower than that of the solution of salt, and the price issued to the merchants is only 36 wen per catty. ”
"There is an exception in the north, that is, there is a salt courtyard in Bianliang City, and through the control of the amount of salt in the market, when the salt price is high, it is suppressed, and when the salt price is low, it has been maintained at the level of 45 Wen per catty."
"In addition to the north, there is the southeast sixth road and Jingdong, the original southeast sixth road issued to the merchant sea salt price, the lowest twenty wen, the highest forty-five wen, but Cai Jing proposed to increase the price in front of the official. The price of salt in the six roads is fixed, and the old price of more than 20 yuan is increased by 10 yuan, and the 45 price is the same as before, that is, except for the highest and lowest grade salt prices, the price of the rest of the intermediate grades is increased by 10 yuan. ”
"Finally, Sichuan Shu 4th Road, Sichuan Shu 4th Road mainly sells locally produced well salt, its price is very low, if there is a fool to sell sea salt, salt in the past, only the blood has no return, and if someone wants to transport his well salt out on a large scale, it is not easy. First, the output is limited, secondly, the salt from here has to be sold to Dali, and thirdly, it is difficult to walk on the Shu road, and the traffic is really inconvenient, so there is no need to say much about the self-sufficiency here. ”
Ma Shan, at first glance, was an old smuggled salt dealer, and he spoke freely and thoroughly about the price of salt in most areas of the Zhao and Song dynasties, and the places he did not mention were either too remote, or the population base was small, and in his eyes, there was no commercial value.
Speaking of which, Ma Shan said:
"The owner of the village, I have the courage to say that the quality of refined salt is far above the salt solution, and the price of forty wen before I was given is indeed a very fair price."
"However, we are doing this private salt business, and there are many obstacles along the way, counting the freight, dots and losses, forty wen will be shipped back, but I am afraid that there will be no profit left, if it is fate, and the boat capsizes in the wind and waves, it will be lost."
"Look, can you let us have another three or two here?"
That's what really keeps the price down.
What Ma Shan said, if you ship it back, you won't be able to make a few pennies, it's just.
You must know that even if these refined salts are wholesaled to the merchants of Jingdong at a price of forty-five Wen, there will still be many people who will rush to them.
After all, the Zhao and Song dynasties were founded for two hundred years and raised a large number of wealthy people, so the high-end market should not be underestimated.
And at the price of forty wen, these people are transported back to their sphere of influence to sell, even if it is just wholesale, they can earn at least ten wen.
Otherwise, how could these people gather here in Shuibo Liangshan at this time, not because there is a huge profit margin in it?
But then again, who would be afraid of a lot of money, if Jiang Hongfei can really give them some profits, even if it is just a penny, if this amount goes up, it will be a lot of income.
Jiang Hongfei didn't bother with Ma Shan.
Businessmen are profit-seeking, and it is natural for them to do so.
Of course, the main thing is that Jiang Hongfei was ready to reduce the price for these people.
- Jiang Hongfei is not prepared to only do the high-end market at all, otherwise the sales volume will not increase, and the income he can make will definitely be limited, and this will not serve the purpose of bloodletting the Zhao Song Dynasty.
Jiang Hongfei said with a smile: "Only let Sanerwen, how to fulfill the promise that Xiao Ke said before to bring you to make money?" ”
As soon as Jiang Hongfei said this, many people began to beat their hearts faster, and even Fang La, Tian Hu, and Wang Qing, who were not interested before, looked at Jiang Hongfei a little nervously!
One person was really impatient, and urged: "Ah Gong, how many texts did you tell us?" Don't whet us anymore! ”
Seeing that this person was so anxious that he called Jiang Hongfei his father, but no one laughed at him, but he was afraid that he would talk nonsense and interrupt Jiang Hongfei to reveal the price that made them extremely nervous and extremely excited!
Jiang Hongfei looked around, and after filling the atmosphere, he said: "Forty Wen is the price that my Shuibo Liangshan gives to those who are not qualified to come here, and the price I Shuibo Liangshan gives to you is ...... Thirty texts. ”
"Thirty ?!!!"
Hearing this price, which everyone never expected, many people almost died of excitement!
These people are all human spirits, and when they hear that Shuibo Liangshan, a refined salt whose quality is far higher than all the salt on the market, but only sells the price of ordinary salt, how can they not imagine what a huge prospect there will be behind this? !
This is almost equivalent to the audience group that can buy refined salt, which has expanded countless times at once!!
It can even be said that if this is the price, then refined salt can drive all the salt in the world out of the market, or force them to drop their prices significantly.
And no matter what the case may be, those of them who can get refined salt for thirty wen will definitely make a lot of money, at least in a short period of time, it will definitely be like this!
Someone asked uneasily: "Are they all refined salt of this quality?" ”
Jiang Hongfei nodded: "All of them." ”
Someone else couldn't help but confirm: "How much do you want?" ”
Jiang Hongfei nodded: "How much you want, in terms of supply, please rest assured." ”
Who is Jiang Hongfei? That's a big man who talks a lot, he spits and spits, it's all nails!
Therefore, after getting Jiang Hongfei's confirmed answer, the people present, one counts as one, including Fang La, Tian Hu, and Wang Qing, who were not interested before, all of them were so excited that they wanted to shout!
"Dafa City has !!"
"We're all going to make a fortune in the city!!"
