Chapter 150 The second time to go to sea, the first batch of low-priced salt is produced!(2/2)

"It's official salt. Now in nearby areas, a dou of official salt only costs 63 yuan!"

Although Cui Jing's voice softened, every word was so solid and powerful.

The brush in Cui Min's hand fell on the desk, and the fingers that were holding it trembled slightly.

"Sixty dollars a fight? Is Zhao Zheng crazy?"

The Cui family is truly a big noble in Qi State, with royal blood in them. Cui, Tian, ​​Lu, Gao, Guo and Qing, the Cui family is also ranked among the top.

The Cui family lived in the Langya area and had mastered the salt selling business from a long time ago. So far, they have accumulated an unknown amount of wealth.

Later, the Qin Dynasty destroyed the six kingdoms, implemented the policy of Shanhaiguan, and controlled the salt industry. Many of the Cui family's salt fields were forcibly purchased and confiscated.

However, the Cui family has a big business after all, with wealth accumulated over countless generations, as well as technology and production workers. Therefore, they quickly set up a private salt farm secretly, colluded with the local nobles, bribed local officials, and continued to sell salt.

.

The Qin State incorporated prices into taxes, that is, the price of taxes was directly put into the price of salt, so the price of salt would be much higher. The private salt produced by the Cui family did not need to pay taxes, plus it would last for hundreds of years.

An aristocratic family with hundreds of years of salt-making craftsmanship, it is well-known in the local area.

Therefore, after the Qin State took away a large number of the Cui family's salt farms, the Cui family's income did not actually drop much.

As for private salt, you never have to worry about selling it. Who doesn’t want to eat cheap salt?

But what if... the official salt becomes cheap salt instead?

"Sixty dollars? Is this salt edible? What is the quality of this batch of official salt? Do you want to find out?" Cui Min looked at his son Cui Jing.

"Dad, I brought it back..." After saying that, Cui Jing took out a bundle from his arms.

"Better than what we have at home..." Cui Jing said cautiously.

Cui Min crushed the slightly rough salt grains in her hands, and the expression on her face kept changing.

After a long time, I looked up at the sky, and for a moment, I seemed to have aged a lot.

"Zhao Zheng, a maid, is trying to destroy the roots of our Cui family!"
