Lin Xian was the first to attack, "Three hundred and fifty taels per share, all 500 shares are required!"

Good guy, he doesn't leave any scum to his big brother.

"Third brother, do you need to be so clever?" Lin Yu's face turned livid, "Mo'er formulated this system just so that you and my brothers can buy shares. You'd better do it!!!"

"Brother, if you can't afford it, just tell me, don't waste any words!"

"Lao San, Lao San, you have gone too far in bullying me today! I offered you 400 taels per share, and I want all 500 shares!"

"I'll pay five hundred!" Lin Xian refused to be outdone.

Five hundred taels per share is equivalent to 250,000 taels of silver. Such a gesture made Lin Yu look extremely ugly.

"How's it going, brother? Do you want to increase the price?" Lin Xian asked aggressively. "Are you running out of money?"

Lin Yu stood up suddenly, "I also offer five hundred taels per share, I want all five hundred shares!"

"Hey, brother, are you confused? I've already given out five hundred taels."

"Hmph! Third brother, don't forget, you can also bid with the year-end dividends!" Lin Yu grinned, "I only want 80% of the year-end dividends!"

(The simple explanation is that Liu Mo gave him a 20% off year-end bonus.)

"You...brother, do you have to fight me to the death?" Lin Xian was anxious, "Okay, I only want 50% of the year-end dividend!"

In less than a moment, the two of them were like vicious dogs fighting for food, and reduced the dividend to 50%.

The hall fell silent, and all eyes suddenly turned to Lin Yu. "How are you, third child?"

Lin Xian glanced at him and said calmly: "Brother, you are quite capable! I only want 30% of the year-end dividend!"

Lin Yu's face trembled, as if he was thinking about the truth or falsehood of Lin Xian's words. If the dividend is 30% off, is there still money to be made?

Turning around, he saw Lin Xian's proud face and shouted angrily: "I only want 10%!"

Good guy! Even Liu Mo was shocked by his momentum.

Invest 250,000 taels of silver, subscribe for 50% of the shares, and get a 10% discount on year-end dividends!

What is this concept?

For example, if the annual profit is 100,000 taels of silver, a 50% shareholding is a dividend of 50,000 taels. With a discount of 10%, it is 5,000 taels!

If you throw away 250,000 taels, you will make a profit of 5,000 taels at the end of the year!

However, what Liu Mo never expected was that Lin Xian's face darkened, "Mo'er, I won't get a penny from the dividends in the first three years, but after three years I will only get 10%!"

Ha, you are even more ruthless, three-year interest-free loan!

As soon as these words came out, Lin Yu flinched.

Investing 250,000 taels of silver, interest-free for the first three years? After that, only 1% of dividends will be received?

Crazy!

"Third brother, you win!" Lin Yu stood up immediately and walked away angrily.

Then congratulations to Mr. Lin for successfully purchasing 50% of the shares of "Lin's Salt Manufacturing"? Liu Mo is already happy from ear to ear!

At this time, Lin Xian, who calmed down, quickly regretted it.

He was impulsive again! He thought to himself, spending so much money on Lin Yubai?

He looked at Liu Mo, as if he wanted to say, "Niece-in-law, does the previously agreed py deal count?"

Liu Mo shrugged, looked at his father-in-law Lin Yuan, and answered him with his eyes, "Third uncle, I am just a son-in-law, your second brother is the head of this house!"

Lin Xian wanted to speak several times, but found that there was nothing he could do.

"Third brother, let's establish a document and settle this matter, shall we?" Lin Yuan stroked his beard and said with a smile.

At this moment, Lin Xian suddenly realized that he had fallen into this kid's trap.

Previously, he and his eldest brother used Lin Yuan's excuse to threaten each other. Their methods were shameless enough and had already made the old lady bedridden.

Now that we have gone through such a wave of public auctions, and then threaten them with those bad things? This is outrageous!

Don't talk about anything else, you bought it at a low price and don't want it now? Lin Yu was the first to refuse!

"Another day," Lin Xian said helplessly, "for such a sum of money, the second brother needs to give the younger brother some time to prepare!"

"No rush, no rush, hahaha!" Lin Yuan smiled proudly.

"Farewell!" Lin Xian cupped his hands and left with a bitter look on his face.

~~~~

Next, just as Liu Mo guessed, Lin Xian entered the "old bastard" mode.

The third son of the Lin family is not a fool. After he wakes up, he will certainly not give out more than two hundred thousand taels of silver without interest.

Lin Yuan was not a good person, and he would not let go of such an opportunity, desperately urging Lin Xian to get the money. In addition, his eldest brother Lin Yu, who was "kicked out", added fuel to the fire, forcing Lin Xian to flee Linyang City overnight.

.

Liu Mo is not short of this money, but by making such a fuss, he has Lin Xian's handle!

Not long after, his subordinates brought back Huang Shouren's letter.

The letter greatly praised the new salt produced by Liu Mo. At the same time, Huang Shouren had reported to the Governor of Jiangnan Province to customize the new salt as official salt. It can be sold after the Governor of Jiangnan Province gives approval.

Liu Mo was very happy when he saw this.

But at the same time, new challenges arise.

First of all, if Liu Mo wants to become a salt merchant, he must first join the Salt Gang and be controlled by the Salt Gang.

Why?

Let’s first talk about the origin of the Daxia Salt Gang.

Salt gangs, as the name suggests, are smugglers who sell illegal salt.

Since ancient times, it has been the official business of salt and iron.

Salt is a necessity of life. It is difficult to survive without salt. Controlling the supply of salt is equivalent to controlling the people under the rule. Therefore, salt in ancient China has always been monopolized by the government, and private individuals are not allowed to enter this field. There are clear criminal laws.

Due to the special environment of feudal society, the country often faced problems such as continuous campaigns, construction of water conservancy projects, and establishment of border defenses, which required a large amount of money and manpower.

At this time, if some merchants took the initiative to donate money or even take the initiative to contract to complete the project, some monarchs would issue them a salt selling license, allowing them to sell and transport official salt, and even get exemptions such as corvee exemptions.

The same was true in the Daxia Dynasty. The proportion of salt collected by officials was far less than that of salt merchants through "regular channels".

Another thing is that the price of official salt is completely determined by the government.

Once there is a war or disaster relief, the government will raise the price and tax of salt and charge it into the national treasury. It is these salt merchants who are unlucky.

There is no other way. When faced with this situation, many official salt merchants had to secretly sell private salt in order to make a living.

It was such a vicious cycle that it was reasonable for the Daxia Dynasty Salt Gang to be recognized by the government.

Why do government salt merchants also want to join the salt gang? Wouldn’t it be great if I hit the market with modern, high-quality and low-priced sea salt?

It's very simple, because the current Salt Gang in the Great Xia Dynasty is equivalent to the gangs on the beach in the old society of the earth. If you don't join, even if you don't do distribution and sell it yourself, they will call a group of big and strong men to guard your shop every day, making you absolutely

Can't do business.

Government protection? Are you kidding? The corrupt officials of the Great Xia Dynasty and the Salt Gang are the same species. They have colluded together for a long time to act as their protective umbrella. Who cares about you?

Finally, there is a logistics issue.

The processing plants that currently produce new salt are all in Xiangshan County, the easternmost part of Jianglin Prefecture. The war in the Great Xia Dynasty has just ended, and the official situation is not peaceful. Salt is such a "best-selling" product, and the chance of being robbed by gangsters is 100%.

.

And if you join the Salt Gang, you will be escorted by Salt Gang disciples along the way. If the gangsters can't afford to offend, they will let you go. This is also one of the benefits!
