Datang: My apprentice is Li Chengqian

Chapter 184 Let Everyone Learn

"They are opportunistic, and they have completely ignored the Salt Industry Association. I want to complain to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and they are not allowed to sell salt."

In the other courtyard of the Zheng family, Zheng Dong immediately became angry when he heard the people below report about Qin Ji's salted fish shop.

Although Datang has not implemented a salt industry monopoly, the control over salt sales is actually very strict.

Only merchants approved by the Ministry of Households can sell salt.

And these works are often promoted by the salt industry associations in various places.

Now that Qinji Salted Fish Store has found a way to get into the lucrative salt industry, how can they bear it?

Don't think that only Haiyan's cost is low, and the cost of well salt from salt merchants like the Zheng family is not much higher.

Even when encountering some salt mines with relatively high purity, the salt dug out directly can be sold after being crushed, so the current price of salt is definitely a huge profit.

"Lang Jun, the family's name is Xianyu Shop, and the fish they sell are indeed salted fish, but the salt on the surface of the salted fish is heavier than the salted fish itself.

It is really hard to say who is right and who is wrong when the complaint is made to the Ministry of Finance.

Based on Qin Xiedao's current status in His Majesty's heart, it is estimated that there will be no loss. "

Although shopkeeper Zheng hated Qin Ji Salted Fish Shop deeply, he also knew that he had no way to deal with it.

"Are they going to be arrogant like this? According to the current price of salted fish, the price of the Qin family's salt is only half of ours. Unless we follow suit, the business in the salt shop will immediately be extremely deserted."

Although Zheng Dong doesn't particularly worry about business matters, he is still clear about some basic business logic.

"Or we can discuss it with the Qin family and ask them to increase the price of salted fish.

In this way, although the sales volume will decrease, the Qin family will not necessarily earn less money. "

Shopkeeper Zheng imagined the communication scene between the two parties according to his own understanding, and felt that if he were Qin Xiedao, he would still agree to this compromise.

After all, it's all about making money.

"No, you still don't understand Qin Xiedao. If he really wanted money, he wouldn't set a price of two cents a catty.

Obviously, he is now a mad dog, biting people everywhere.

According to this pace of development, the main merchants in Chang'an City will all be taken over by him.

He is trying to smash everyone's jobs. "

Zheng Dong thought that in the past six months, not only his own family suffered losses, but the situation of the Kong family, Wang family, and Cui family did not get any better.

"Lang Jun, if this is the case, we don't need to worry so much.

This Qin Xiedao wanted to die himself, he didn't put our families in his eyes, and thought that he had His Majesty backing him, so he was not afraid of anything.

But this world will teach him to be a man sooner or later.

Once an opportunity is found, each of our families will definitely deal with them in a tacit understanding. "

Shopkeeper Zheng can only comfort himself in this way now.

"Hey, it's not as simple as you think. For now, we can only lower the price in the salt shop a little bit, and we'll figure out other things slowly."

Zheng Dong's heart was bleeding when he thought of spitting out the profits that had been eaten into his mouth.

……

"Shubao, your son is too good at making troubles. This man hasn't returned to Chang'an City yet, and he has made a lot of noise in the east and west markets."

In the Qin mansion, Cheng Yaojin, Yu Chigong and Qin Shubao were sitting together drinking white clouds, chatting casually there.

"I'm getting more and more incomprehensible about Xie Dao's work. But this time, your Dalang and Jingde's Saburo also went with him. Maybe they made this matter up."

Qin Shubao's mood at this time is more complicated.

On the one hand, his son is so powerful, which is naturally something to be proud of.

But on the other hand, my son is too powerful, and my sense of being a father immediately dropped several levels.

The most obvious is that the servants in the mansion have already obeyed Xie Linmao, Qin Xiedao's spokesman, to the point of obeying.

When Qin Xiedao returned to Chang'an City by himself, he probably had the final say on the entire Qin Mansion.

"Impossible, as far as my Dalang's virtue is concerned, if he has this ability, I don't have to worry so much.

Others say that I, Cheng Yaojin, are stupid enough, but actually my sons are really stupid. "

Cheng Yaojin drank a glass of wine very depressed.

Don't be afraid of bad goods, just be afraid of comparing goods.

The combined abilities of his own sons are not as good as Qin Xiedao's, Cheng Yaojin sees this very clearly.

"In my opinion, Xiedao is willing to play with them, which is something that makes us feel gratified.

Children and grandchildren have their own blessings, so we don't care so much, just drink well. "

Yuchi Jingde drank a bit too much today, but he didn't intend to stop at all.

"My lords, the fleet has arrived at Weishui Wharf, and my lords will be back soon."

Unexpectedly, at this time, someone came quickly to report the news.

Qin Xiedao and others, who had left Chang'an City for three months, finally returned.

……

"Brother Qin, the Weishui Wharf has undergone considerable changes, and many areas have been expanded."

Cheng Chumo took a stride and stepped on the stone slab of the Weishui Wharf.

"For the construction of the new palace, many things need to be transported from various places. In addition, Chang'an City has now re-entered the situation of stable development, and there will naturally be more merchant ships coming to Chang'an from various places."

Qin Xiedao looked at the Weishui Wharf, which was not actually busy, and felt nothing.

With regard to these ships, any small port in future generations can instantly kill them, which can be regarded as prosperous.

"That's true. Not to mention other things, there are a lot more ships from Mingzhou to Chang'an City than before."

"Brother Qin, Brother Cheng, shall we go back to our respective houses first, or go to the palace to see His Majesty first?"

Yu Chihuan followed him ashore and began to inquire about the next step.

"First remove the whale skeleton from the boat, go directly to the end of Suzaku Avenue, and erect the whale skeleton in the open space of the square.

This time we went to Mingzhou. When we left, it was not a good time. Many people were even waiting to see our jokes.

Today we let all the noble officials and people in Chang'an City take a look, we are back again, we have returned from Mingzhou with an extraordinary harvest. "

Qin Xiedao is not the kind of person who keeps a low profile in everything he does.

The impact of this whale skeleton on the noble people of Chang'an City is absolutely huge.

It is also good for everyone to take this opportunity to have a new understanding of the sea and the world we live in.
