Back Off, Let Me Come Chapter 575

  Chapter 575 Chapter 575: Fishing in Troubled Waters (Part 2) [Seeking a monthly ticket]

  Private salt is already profitable, not to mention that Shen Tang provides high-quality refined salt, the profit cannot be compared with coarse salt, and he can still get 40% of it. Even if the family is as big as the Xu family, they can't be completely indifferent...

  Because of emotion and reason, he should come forward in person.

  However, although Xu Jie is the head of the Xu family, he is also the governor of He Yin, and He Yin and Long Wu are far apart. If it is not necessary, he can't easily leave the territory, and the Xu family's business is the same. As he took office, many businesses in the clan were gradually delegated to confidants or trusted assistants in the clan. Shen Tang's private salt business, he handed it over to his confidant.

  The attendant said: "I will live up to the high expectations of my parents."

  Xu Jie exhorted: "Well, do it well."

  If the attendant can do this job well, he can also safely handle more business and train him to be his right-hand man.

   "Remember, treat Shen Jun respectfully."

   "Don't offend Mr. Shen's subordinates."

   Followers remember one by one.

  This attendant grew up with Xu Jie, and Xu Jie trusted him as much as he trusted himself. And because the attendant was aware of his admiration and gratitude for Shen Tang, he would not be reckless in receiving Long Wu, let alone offend others. Xu Jie was very relieved.

  Wu Xian was making pre-war preparations in full swing, and Xu Jie's entourage led a lightly-packed caravan to Longwu County to purchase goods. After receiving the goods, the private salt will be sent to various places according to the order of the clan, and then the money will be settled, and the business will be considered complete.

   As for spending energy to find sales and buyers?

   Not at all.

  Because the demand for this business exceeds the supply.

  Salt is an essential item in daily life. If people do not eat salt, they will become weak, tired, dull, and mentally weak after a long time. How can ordinary people work in the fields without energy? So even if the price of salt is soaring, you still have to grit your teeth and buy some low-quality coarse salt for consumption.

  Before Xu Jie came to power, Xu's private salt business had a very small market share. Since he followed Wu Xian and obtained from Wu Xian the right to sell Ikeda's private salt under Wu's name, the private salt business has become competitive, and over the past few years, he has vigorously expanded related channels.

   In a word—

   I am not afraid that Shen Tang has too much private salt, but I am afraid that there is not enough.

   Waiting for the attendant to lead a caravan into Longwu County, time has passed and summer has begun. Yantian District began to produce high-quality refined salt, and the scale of salt wells increased to more than 500. The salt workers alternately cook and shovel salt day and night, and weigh the finished salt lumps before putting them into storage.

  Four transactions are imported by the salt dealer into Shiwu.

  The fifth transaction was sold by Xu Jie in the customs.

  The remaining 10% will be placed in Ru Yao Department Store.

  Shen Tang also opened a department store in Longwu County. The salt and grain business on their own land should be owned by the government as a matter of course. How can they get outsiders to eat the cake? There is still a little money in the public treasury, so there is no need to send IOUs to ease the cash pressure like in the Fugucheng period.

  As long as you are a commoner from Longwu County, you can buy refined salt at the Ruyao department store at a slightly higher price than coarse salt!

  Of course, in order to prevent reselling by scalpers, this item is limited.

  In order to facilitate the purchase of daily necessities by the common people, Shen Tang also plans to open department stores in other counties and towns under the Longwu County. This move can be regarded as giving favor to those who charged and worked hard for her.

   And because they cannot compete with the people for profit.

  So commodity pricing follows the market.

  The only advantage is that the department store has a relatively complete range of goods, and ordinary people can buy what they need in one visit.

  When the attendants arrived, the Ruyao Administration had already gained popularity, and many people could be seen in the streets and alleys. Although the clothes on the common people were still patched with eye-catching patches, their expressions were no longer as numb as before, and their eyes became brighter.

  The planning and layout of Ruyao City is similar to that of Fugu.

  The attendant almost thought he was going the wrong way.

  He brought the deed to the government office and asked to see Shen Tang.

   Coincidentally, Shen Tang didn't go out today.

  The deed volume was handwritten by Xu Jie in advance, and it was stamped with the Wenxin seal of the head of the Xu family. Only the signature at the end and the weight of this private salt were left blank for Shen Tang to fill in. For normal business, the deed should be in triplicate, one for the buyer, one for the seller, and one for the local government office. The purpose of giving the deed to the government office is to facilitate the payment of city tax and salt tax. But—how could it be private salt?

   Paying taxes obediently can still be called smuggling?

  Therefore, there are only two copies of the deed this time.

  Shen Tang read ten lines at a glance.

  The vague content of the deed scroll is also beneficial to Shen Tang's side.

  She raised her head and asked the attendant with a respectful look: "How much food can you eat this time? How many horses and people did the caravan bring?"

   The attendants answered one by one.

  Because on the first trip, Xu Jie was not sure how much Shen Tang would produce, so the scale of the caravan he sent was conservative.

  I thought Shen Tang would hesitate.

  Unexpectedly, she nodded and wrote down.

  Finally, take out Wenxin monogram signature and seal.

   wrote another letter to the attendant.

   "You take it to the salt warehouse to pick up the goods, and talk to your parents later, you can speak louder next time, there is plenty of salt."

   Whenever you look at the number, your pupils will tremble.

   Immediately, he said in embarrassment: "This, this—"

  Shen Tang asked warmly: "Is there any difficulty?"

  The attendant whispered: "The deposit belt is not enough..."

   Nearly half the difference.

Shen Tang thought it was a big deal, and said with a smile: "What embarrassment can there be if the deposit is not enough? Based on the friendship between me and your parents, let alone bring the deposit, so what's the problem even if you come here empty-handed? It's really valuable."

  Xu Jie's reputation is worth tens of thousands of gold to her.

   When the attendant heard the words, his heart felt hot.

  Began to understand why the parents praised Shen Jun so much. This person is open-minded and open-minded, and seems to be an outlier in the business field of intrigues, but this trust really touches people's hearts. He immediately held the letter from Shen Tang in both hands, and took his leave respectfully.

  The person in charge of the salt storage has a mighty face.

  Although his face is old, he has a murderous look all over him.

  If it weren't for the general aura around him, he would have thought he was a battle-tested veteran. When Yang Gong saw the letter, he checked it and waved his hand to ask people to move the goods. On the way, he heard him muttering: "Isn't everyone saying that Xu's family has a big business and a big appetite, how can they be so delicate..."

  The goods sold to Shiwu are worth three times as much as this batch.

  The salt dealer is called "Lion Dakou". Looking at his thin body, his appetite is comparable to gluttonous, tsk tsk.

  He had to talk to Shen Jun later...

   It's time for her family's salt storage to consider expanding.

   The attendant felt uneasy.

  It took some side-by-sides to know the truth.

   The corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily.

   Bite the bullet and apologize for laughing, and just patted his chest and promised to eat the next batch of goods four times and five times next time.

  However, private salt sold to Shiwu?

  Aren't you afraid of raising tigers?

  Because this matter is semi-public news in a small area, Yang Gong is not worried about leaking it, and at the same time, he should appropriately increase Xu Jie's sense of crisis. So he lifted his eyelids, and said calmly: "Although Shiwu was scared of being beaten last time, you can't keep choking their necks all the time. You have to beware of them jumping over the wall in a hurry. They have money, and we have salt. I wish you what you want, isn't it good?"

  The attendant nodded in agreement: "This is also true."

  He also doesn't think that Longwu County and Heyin County have a good relationship, and the former's private salt business should be entrusted to the latter.

  In the business field, only interests are concerned, not feelings.

  However, there is an upper limit to the production of private salt in one place.

   Give more to Shiwu, but less to your side.

  The attendant began to fiddle with the abacus in his heart, thinking about going back to talk to the owner, and then sending several caravans to go shopping at the same time.

  If you have the ability to eat all the goods...

   It's also Xu's ability.

  One month before the attendant came to Ruyao, the experienced salt seller had already passed Yonggu Pass with his men, horses and goods, and went to Shiwu. Because there is no shortage of goods, he doesn't have to go to the poorer and more remote Shiwuxi Territory to seek the maximum benefit. Pursuing efficiency, he goes directly to the Tata Mur'er tribe, which is the closest and has some friendship with him, to make a fortune first!

   By the way, how much weight do you gain in a week in the third trimester?

   I feel that my weight has not increased but decreased in the past three weeks...less than half a catty... I guess it is because the edema started to subside some time ago? ? ?
