Unexpectedly, Duan Ye thought about it, but asked: "Mr. Jiao, I heard that this Jincheng County is rich in saltpeter?"
Jiao Meng blinked, and didn't expect it to be this problem at all. Did Duan Ye call himself to the mansion specifically to squeeze money from him? Even if he doesn't want money, he wants people, things, gold, silver and jewelry,
It is understandable to use antique calligraphy and painting. What should I do with saltpeter?
Jincheng County is indeed rich in saltpeter. There are many such things on the land of the Jiao family. But what else can this mineral be used as medicine?
However, Duan Ye’s question cannot be answered, so Jiao Meng said carefully: “Sir, is this saltpeter? There are indeed many in Jincheng County. I don’t know if you want to…”
"Haha, saltpeter is an important medicinal material, do you know?" Duan Ye said with a smile, "In this chaotic world, the pharmaceutical industry is very profitable. Now Duan Ye also plans to enter the pharmaceutical industry, saltpeter,
It's also a must-have medicinal material."
Jiao Meng breathed a sigh of relief. Of course he knew that saltpeter can indeed be used as medicine. The doctor said: saltpeter smells bitter, cold, non-toxic, and has a strong warmth, which can cure headaches, heart and abdomen, waist and abdominal pain, red and swollen eyes, red and swollen eyes, throat numbness, and summer heat
Digestion, fatigue, blood, heat, air, air, qi:, stone, cervical cervix, female jaundice, and other difficult and complicated diseases, especially saltpeter powder, which must be prescribed in almost all medications.
of
But at the beginning, the Jiao Meng family monopolized the saltpeter mine, but they really didn't think they could get anything from it. But of course the salt mine belongs to the Qifu family. Other iron ores are not my turn. Is this saltpeter? Although it is profitable.
It's not as scary as salt and iron, but it's profitable at least. It's monopoly and occupy it. After all, there's no harm, so I took it. But later, the Jiao family made a fortune through other channels and forgot about it.
If you really open a pharmacy, you really need a lot of saltpeter. Moreover, the pharmaceutical industry involves human life and makes a lot of profits. Moreover, your family does not do this business, and those saltpeters seem to be in Jiao Meng.
It's really not worth it. It really doesn't matter to give it to Duan Ye. Even these saltpeter mines are not as good as Wushuang in Jiao Meng. The two women are worth it.
But here's the problem
Although Jiao Meng felt sorry for money, he would never be a rooster. He knew deeply that there was no reason in the world that he only gave money but did not do anything unless he didn't want to get it anymore. Duan Ye took money from here, and feeling sorry for him, but he also
It is equivalent to spending money on protection and buying peace. Should I pay this money? The Jiao family has been able to spend so many years in Jincheng County, almost endlessly. Isn’t it because they are willing to spend money at critical moments?
Duan Ye clearly didn't want money, but went to ask for saltpeter. This only means that Duan Ye didn't like wealth, but wanted to get more things from himself.
What would that be? ** Hu Jiao Meng encountered such a new problem and could not help but start to think about it.
After thinking for a long time, Jiao Meng said carefully: "Is this saltpeter? Jincheng has a lot of it. How many do you need, sir?"
Duan Ye is obviously not satisfied with this answer. He touched his chin and said, "To be honest, Mr. Jiao said, Duan Ye really needs a large amount of saltpeter. Is this amount? Hahaha, in fact, it's enough to have.
How many"
Seeing Jiao Meng a little stunned, Duan Ye continued, "Originally, Duan was looking for saltpeter everywhere but could not get it. But just so, most of the mineral veins of Jincheng and even the entire Hexi were under Mr. Jiao's command. According to Duan Ye
As we know, most of these saltpeters were not mined, and a small part of them were sold to related drug dealers. In this way, Duan was willing to purchase them at a price of 10% higher than the market price, and he decided not to allow them.
Mr. Jiao suffers, how about it?”
"Uh..." Jiao Meng didn't expect that Duan Ye was so direct, and he didn't force him to ask for money, and he actually gave him money to make money. What's wrong with this world?
Duan Ye saw Jiao Meng pondering, and continued, "Mr. Jiao thinks it's too small? If you buy this, it's only one hundred percent higher. It's a little less. But now, more and more people are having dinner with Duan.
He is hungry for food, and Duan Ye can only afford this price. Please forgive Mr. Jiao. Duan Ye will not let Mr. Jiao suffer any loss. He will definitely compensate Mr. Jiao in other places."
Jiao Meng then confirmed that Duan Ye was not joking, but really wanted saltpeter, and hurriedly said: "What are you talking about? A mere saltpeter mine is not worth much."
"No" Duan Ye waved his hand, "Business is business, this money should be collected. Mr. Jiao must collect it, and he can't ignore it, but he shouldn't collect it, hehehe, Duan Ye can't even have a son.
Give more, at this time, you should be an iron rooster, you must be an iron rooster!"
"Hahahaha" The two of them looked at each other and laughed. This matter was settled.
Next, the two of them talked a lot, and they talked a lot, from the big things in the world to trivial matters, from the poems of Zi, to the romance of the wind, flowers, snow and moon, almost everything was included. In fact, Jiao Meng is a source of family knowledge.
People like Duan Ye have been trained in debate and accumulated many ready-made famous sayings. Where is Jiao Meng an opponent? Duan Ye can throw a few words that have been refined and crystallized by thousands of years of wisdom, which will make Jiao Meng admire him.
Provoking the ground, flattering
Of course, the two of them will not just chat here. Duan Ye clearly pointed out that since the business is to promote, a local leader is needed. He thinks that Jiao Meng is quite suitable for this role.
Jiao Meng was overjoyed and naturally refused. However, after Duan Ye insisted a few more times, Jiao Meng refused halfway.
The guest and host had a great conversation. It was not until Duan Ye picked up the tea tray to see him off that Jiao Meng left happily.
Although Jiao Meng was still a little confused, he didn't believe that Duan Ye would be so kind, and it was really like this. Even if he let him go, the so-called chairman of the Chamber of Commerce was indeed very attractive.
There are three problems with the Chinese. From the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors to the present, they have never changed their past, that is, they are afraid of death, greedy for money, and want to be an official.
And these three problems are the third one, the most serious, even if the lowest group of people, as long as they can become the so-called "official" in this group, they will be very satisfied and happy.
What's more, according to Duan Ye's statement, the president of the Chamber of Commerce is not small in power and has more wealth. Whoever doesn't do such a good thing will be bastard!
Jiao Meng left, Duan Ye was also very happy because he finally got what he wanted, that is saltite
Jiao Mengguang knew that saltpeter could be used as medicine, but he didn't know that saltpeter could not only be used as medicine, but also as gunpowder!
As we all know, gunpowder is made of charcoal in a certain proportion. Is it easy to get sulfur? I have also found a lot of it in Dunhuang County, and this is not short of it, but it is missing.
It's saltpeter without saltpeter, of course there's no fire-silt
Of course there is this thing in Jiangnan, but it is impossible to buy it from such a faraway place for saltpeter. In this case, the cost is very high on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is also subject to others. What should we do if we don’t sell it to you?
More importantly, it is something like saltpeter. I have never heard of it before. The prince wanted to use this. If he bought saltpeter with great fanfare, he would definitely doubt it.
As long as doubt arises, there are not many secrets that can be hidden. So the best way is to not let them doubt it.
It just so happened that after Duan Ye captured the Warriors Fort, he realized that there was saltpeter in Jincheng County, but the Jiao family was too lazy to mine now. This news made Duan Ye overjoyed the so-called sleepy pillow that came, which came to his door.
Saltpeter is a big gift
Jiao Meng didn't know what saltpeter can do, but Duan Ye knew a lot on the one hand, saltpeter contains a lot of potassium. Not to mention anything else, just this one can think of ways to refine fertilizers. People in this era have grown crops.
When I take manure, how can I know anything else?
This is secondly. Saltpeter is one of the most basic raw materials in the chemical industry. With saltpeter, the section industry may organize personnel to find ways to develop alkali production methods. With various important processes such as alkali and ammonia production, it is possible.
Once a chemical process can be developed, it means that the overall productivity will be greatly improved. In this way, other things that seem impossible now, such as smelting, forging, and refining, will become possible.
With technological progress, it is possible to create advanced weapons and industrial products. It goes without saying how effective these are.
Of course, for Duan Ye, the most important thing is nothing else, it is gunpowder
Whether gunpowder can be made determines whether Duan Ye's troops are still fighting against the enemy in the era of cold weapons and physical strength, or whether Duan Ye is likely to enter the era of hot weapons and despise them technically.
Duan Ye has already created all the terrifying killing weapons in the age of cold weapons, but with these, local competitions, perhaps more than enough to fight.
There are still shortcomings in the world because the gap between these weapons and the enemy is not yet reached the point where human power cannot reach.
However, no matter how hard Duan Ye works, he still has a few people. If he wants to grow and grow, he must quickly grab the territory.
Duan Ye has no time anymore, so he must get out the firearms, make medicines, and form a new army as soon as possible. If it is for this, what is it to spend more money?
Besides, eggs are always in the basket and will not run away. In this world, the problem that many businessmen have never figured out is that whoever has swords and guns will have the power. Whether their money is their own is not up to the contract, and
Depending on the difference in the thoughts of the superior, the money given by Duan Ye in the saltpeter is just temporarily stored and will be brought back sooner or later!
