Chapter 38 The Ownership of Huainan Salt (Part 2)

After Cai Yan entered Jiangning, it was reported that the entire Jiangning Mansion that the Cai family wanted to swallow all the salt in Huainan. Cai Jing had just returned to Bianjing and wanted to reopen the abolished salt pounce. All salt merchants attached great importance to it and urgently needed to revitalize the salt banknotes that were almost as waste paper in their hands. When the Cai family wanted to occupy all the salt, they instinctively wanted to boycott it.

When Cai Jing's third son Cai Chong came to Jiangning Mansion at this time, everyone knew the result. When they were panicked and at a loss, Cai Huang invited them. Although he had guessed some of the reasons in his heart, he was still uneasy. When Pei Qing spoke, the young and old nodded in agreement, and Su Renli's expression became more gloomy.

"After saying so much, we should always take out some real materials. It won't be a real gold and silver coins, right? The court did not speak so much when buying pounces!"

Cai Yan looked at Su Renli with a cold face, nodded seriously, and said, "Although Old Su's words are not all right, but! If you want to get a piece of the pie, you must take out the corresponding real money, whether it is land, silk, brocade, or other valuable items. In short, it will be 1.1 million guan, because..."

Cai Hua pointed at Fang Jinzhi, who was sitting at the end of the black, and smiled and said, "The Fang family has bought the Yancheng Wuyouchang Yanba. For fairness, you must also take out the corresponding money."

"What?"

Su Renli stood up with a loud bang and looked at Fang Jinzhi, who was pouting and dissatisfied with dissatisfaction, and everyone was even more in agitation.

Zhang Da stood up and clasped his fists to Cai Yan and said, "Is it too much for Yanei to ask for 1.3 million guan? Yanei also knows that the court has been more likely to buy salt and pounce, and all the people who are sitting on it have lost countless losses. How can we take out so much money today?"

Everyone nodded. Su Renli was angry that the Fang family was betrayed. After listening to Zhang Da's words, he said angrily: "Don't think others don't know. The Cai family used waste paper-like salt banknotes to buy Huainan salt. He turned his head but asked me to pay the full amount of real gold and silver. What's the reason?"

"What's the reason..."

Cai Huang slapped the table suddenly.

"Bang!"

"This is the reason for the Cai family!"

...

Cai Yan pressed his hands on the table and looked at Su Renli coldly. The depressing atmosphere filled with the air made people unable to breathe, but Fang Jinzhi looked at the child in front of him with a look of surprise.

"Rumors in Jiangning, Suzhou, Yangzhou, Hangzhou... and other places, dare you say that they have nothing to do with you?"

...

Cai Yan looked at everyone coldly, and there was enough tea to suppress his anger.

"You are right! The Cai family used useless salt money to buy Huainan salt bass!"

“So what?”

"Believe it or not, the Cai family doesn't make a penny this year, and the Cai family doesn't charge a penny for the people. They use salt to collect all the salt money from the people's hands and destroy it!"

"Do you believe it or not-"

...

"snort!"

"If you don't have any money, you can mortgage it and owe it. The Cai family promises that you can have no interest. The Cai family promises that you will not get any salt in the future, but one million tumbles a penny cannot be lost!"

"snort!"

"One family cannot swallow the whole Huainan salt, but I can not withdraw a penny, and let the people withdraw salt! I can not make a penny! I can even lose money!"

"snort!"

Cai Yan was furious and glanced at him one by one. No matter how old fox they were, when the Cai family used all the salt money to buy Huainan Salt Ba, the Cai family had already won, and they had to bow their heads!

Fang Jinzhi looked at all the people with gloomy faces with confusion. She was a little confused. It was not only this year for the court to buy the pounce, but it would be better if the child slapped the table and gave the people free salt, and wouldn't it be better to take the opportunity to take off the salt banknotes in his hand?

Fang Jinzhi was puzzled, but he didn't know that once Cai Yan did this, it would cause a huge disaster to the salt market, at least Huainan salt market.

Everyone was silent, and Cai Yan drank without saying a word...

Sun Sui, the head of the Sun family, sighed silently, stood up and bowed to Cai Li, and sighed, "I... my Sun family is willing to pay 300,000 guan to buy Lianshui salt, and ask the yamen to allow my Sun family to borrow 150,000 guan."

Cai Yan clasped his fists and returned the salute, smiled slightly, and said, "No problem, there is no interest for five years. If Mr. Sun encounters difficulties, the Cai family can also provide corresponding help in the best of his ability."

Sun Sui bowed his fists again and sat down silently.

"Yanei, can my Wang family use the shipyard and 100,000 guan to buy the emerging salt farm..."

"That's our Su family!" Su Renli interrupted Wang Duanzhi's words coldly, looked at Cai Yan with a cold face, and said, "Everyone knows that the Wang Shipyard is a money-losing product. Don't give a penny to others, and others won't ask for it anymore. My Su family bought the emerging salt farm for 250,000 yuan!"

Cai Yan looked at Wang Duanzhi who sighed and retreated, then at Su Renli with a cold face, and said, "Love is love, business is business. Cai Yan may not know about other families, but he knows that the Su family's wealth is 250,000 jin, cash is silver!"

Su Renli snorted angrily.

"for you!"

Cai Huang nodded, looked at Wang Duanzhi again, and said, "How many boatmen are there in Wang's shipyard, how big can the ships can be built, and where are they?"

Everyone was stunned. They were all salt merchants and knew each other very well. They knew that Wang Duanzhi's shipyard was not small, but something happened to the imitation of the big food ship. The big food ship was sued for a large amount of money by the big food man. The loss was small. The key was that his reputation was bad. In addition to the salt money matter, the Wang family also suffered a large amount of debt.

Cai Yan didn't know this, and all the people looked at each other and didn't say anything to dissuade them. They all looked at Wang Duanzhi with a shameful look on her face.

Wang Duanzhi hesitated for a long time, but finally sighed.

"The villain is ashamed, please give up..."

Cai Yan reached out to stop him and said, "Old Wang, don't rush to leave. Yan Yan also said that as long as there is enough value, it can be used to replace money."

Wang Duanzhi sighed and said the general matter, saying, "Although my Song Dynasty ships were as strong as the city, they were not as fast as the Dashiguo boats. So the Wang family wanted to imitate the Dashiguo boats, and it happened that the Dashiguo merchants wanted to buy them and also provided shipbuilding craftsmen. But... it was only that the Wang family craftsmen thought that the method made by the Dashiguo craftsmen was inappropriate, but they insisted, and later..."

Wang Duanzhi sighed and said bitterly: "The ship has sunk, but the Dashiguo believes that the ship built by the Wang family is only a problem..."

Su Renli frowned and said, "Everyone knows that sea boats are not like boats in rivers, they all know the truth that the upper is heavy and the lower is light and heavy. Even children know the truth. Could it be that this is also the fault of those big cannibals?"

Wang Duanzhi opened her mouth and wanted to defend herself, but she could not explain it. She could only regret countless times that she was greedy for the high cost of the country.

Cai Yan looked at Wang Duanzhi with thoughtful thoughts, and without thinking about it, he realized that this was a not-so-smart fraud. Once he became greedy, he would almost be an unsolvable situation.

"A shipyard with a famous street... well! The Wang family shipyard has 150,000 guan. The Wang family only needs to take out 100,000 guan. The salt in Hai'an belongs to the Wang family."

Wang Duanzhi was stunned and looked at Cai Yan, who was waving his hand indifferently.

"Old Wang is there any problem?"

Wang Duanzhi nodded repeatedly and said, "No problem, no problem, the Wang family thanked the yamen for their kindness!"

Wang Duanzhi was overjoyed. All the salt merchants looked at Cai Yan with a calm expression incredible. They never expected that he not only wanted the Wang Shipyard, but also gave such a high price, and the group of people couldn't help but accelerate.

It is easier to make salt banknotes several times. Each salt merchant has lost countless losses. The broken capital chain has caused some industries that cannot be operated. The Wang family can take out the money-lossing shipyard, and they can do it too.

Huainan salt mainly sells Lianshui salt from Hubei, as well as various salt fields in Chuzhou, Taizhou, Tongzhou and other places. Lianshui salt and Chuzhou salt were determined. After Wang Duanzhi occupied 30% of the salt in Taizhou, the rest were the targets that everyone really competed for. Some salt merchants who failed to get the share first went barefoot and fought fiercely.

...

Cai Chong crawled into the sedan chair with a tired look on his face, not caring about the concubine Zhang sitting opposite him.

"well……"

Cai Chong sighed deeply, and Zhang quietly lifted his legs and feet, while taking off his shoes and socks for him, he whispered: "Is it inappropriate for the master to squeeze Master Xue like this?"

Cai Chong raised his eyebrows and looked at the woman who was pinching the soles of his feet, and was silent...

"Do you think the master is willing to offend the eldest brother? But this is what my father means, and the eldest brother has done something too much. Even if he wants something in Su Mei's hand, there is no need to bully the fifth brother like this."

Thinking of the letter Su Mei sent to Bian Jing, he sighed again.

"well……"

"Then Su Mei is indeed a good method..."

Zhang lowered his head and rubbed his legs and feet, and smiled, "The embroidered lady thinks that the fifth young master is powerful."

Cai Chong smiled and said, "My fifth brother is just a child of six or seven years old, and he is just a mess. If he doesn't have his father's power, what can he do if others are dirty? Huainan Yanba Bubo was just because of his father's nod and because his father was dissatisfied with Xue Ang's change of the house."

Zhang was stunned, and then understood the cause and effect, and stopped persuading each other, just silently kneading his legs and feet.

Cai Chong seemed to hesitate, his brows still frowned, his mind full of the strange fifth brother...

"It is inappropriate for Su Mei to control the family's property. In the future, you will be the one who will manage the family's shops and villages."

Cai Chong suddenly spoke, Zhang was stunned, and hesitated again.

"The embroidery lady knows that the master is pitying, but the lady's place... the master, is it safer?"

Listening to her mention of the word "Madam", Cai Chong felt impatient and bent his legs and feet to retract them.

"Don't worry about your wife's affairs. What my father means is that except Su Mei's dowry, the rest are all taken into kilometers. The master guessed that Su Mei was too arrogant and dared to threaten her father. It would be inappropriate if she didn't punish her. You should be careful in the future and don't make her father dissatisfied."

Seeing that Cai Chong really wanted to take charge of the Cai family's financial power, Zhang was inexplicably happy and nodded in agreement.

...

Zhang was originally the courtesan of Bianjing, but later became Cai Chong's concubine. Whether the concubine of the third prince of the Cai family had nothing to do with Cai Huang, he did not expect that although this third brother who came to help him, he also raised his hand and slapped heavily in the face...

The government opened up buying salt, and Cai Yan also made a private purchase. One was confirmed to Cai Yan for one million and three million guan to buy salt in Huainan, and the other was the Jiangnan salt merchant in Huainan to produce salt in each salt farm in Huainan. When everyone left, Gu Qinniang, who was silently serving as a maid, knew that the child with oily hands and a blushing face won. The money that could be confirmed was more than 500,000 guan, and there were nearly one million guan of brocade, land, shipyard, tea garden...
