Chapter 65 Salt is expensive

Before Mother Chu figured out what she was trying to do, Father Chu came back slowly.

Gao Banshou went back to his room first, deliberately leaving time for the family to have a good talk.

The daughter-in-law and children all surrounded their father and asked, how is it going?
"Oh, don't mention it." These words show that Father Chu is very worried, really worried!
Is this salt that cannot be sold?
Tang Yun was in a hurry. There was nothing wrong with his own family, and his daughter had plenty of money, but the other families could get a settling fee by selling the salt. "Don't they accept it? What should I do?"

"Father, is it because you and Uncle Gao asked for too high a price? It's okay to ask for a lower price."

Chu Xiangbin believes that salt is equivalent to picking up for nothing, and you can earn as much as you sell, and if the price is low, it will be low.

Chu Hanguang glanced at Er'er, thinking that this silly son is a martial idiot and not a business material, and luckily he is not expected to do business.

Chu Tian and her elder brother Chu Xiangwen exchanged a tacit understanding. The siblings noticed that their father's face was full of worry, but the worry was strange, not like the worry of not being able to sell the goods, but rather like being urged to order. worry.

Tang Yun noticed the small movements of the older son and the younger daughter, "Xiang Wen, Tianer, what do you want to say?"

"Father, how much is the price for a catty of salt? Have you decided on the delivery location and time?"

Chu Tian skipped the question of whether people want it or not, she doesn't believe that the black market won't accept it.

When the daughter asked about the price of the salt, Father Chu’s sad face became brighter, and he laughed, “Tonight at Haishi City North, our salt is finer than the ones sold in the market, and the other party is willing to give you fifty cents a catty.”

A catty can be sold for half a tael of silver, twenty catties is a tael of silver, and a hundred catties is worth five taels of silver! ! !
Although Chu Tian only had a general understanding of the prices in ancient times, a luxurious lunch today only cost one or two or three dollars, so the salt is really expensive in comparison!
No one knows the price of salt better than Tang Yun, a housewife. He was shocked when his husband mentioned the price of salt. He knew that salt was expensive, but he really didn't expect it to be so expensive.

Chu Xiangwen, a scholar who has always regarded money as dung, is also glad that it was too correct to put salt bags on the carriage.

And Chu Xiangbin was already counting with his fingers how many catties of salt in his house could be sold for how much money.

"Oh, second brother, are you sure? We have money, did you forget?"

"I haven't forgotten, it's just that we earned the money for selling salt with great effort, so it's safe to hold in our hands."

Don't those people work hard?If it weren't for my little brain, how could I get a thank you gift from others?You are a real ghost, this is also illegal, okay?

"Since this is the case, why are you so happy?" Seeing Father Chu's sad face when he entered the door, Mother Chu couldn't help asking.

"Cough, mixed joy and sorrow."

"Father, please speak well."

Hearing that Monk Zhang Er was puzzled, Xiang Bin was so anxious that he was almost punched by his father.

Chu Niang also glared at her husband, she hated it, what is he trying to do.

Only the eldest son and the younger daughter are free and easy, and you can talk or not as you like.

"That black market merchant, Mr. Lai, thinks the stock is short, so let's find a way to get more."

This is what Chu Hanguang was worried about. He was fleeing famine, and the risk of making salt was high. Now that his family is not short of money, there is no need to take this risk.

"It turns out that this is what Dad is worried about. What are you afraid of? It only takes half a month to go back and forth. The money is so easy to earn."

Chu Xiangbin has the potential to be a bandit, and his ideas coincide with Gao Banshou's.

"I don't agree, we are not short of that money." Tang Yun threw the thin house deed in front of Father Chu.

"It's not that we are not bad, it's brother Gao who is short of money, it's because he wants to..."
