The revival of Shu Han

Chapter 173 Saltworks Auction

Chapter 173 Saltworks Auction ([-])

"Boom, boom, boom~~~" The auction hammer with a strong traveler style struck an epoch-making sound on the professional auction table.

On May 264, [-] AD, in the city of Chengdu, the Tongsifang Casino under the Mijia Trading Company.The hall in the middle has been renovated and transformed into a rather modern auction house.Moreover, on the second floor above the auction house, twenty single rooms were installed.

"Dong dong dong~~~ Dear friends from the Thirteen States, I am the host of this auction, Da Han Da Si Nong Mi Zhao Mi Boyao."

"Flat~~~" As soon as Mi Zhao finished speaking, there was a burst of booing in the venue - no doubt, this was the dissatisfaction of the dignitaries or their representatives from outside Yizhou.

"Hehe, by the way, I have forgotten that many friends in the audience today do not recognize my country as a big man. But!" Dongdong, after hitting the auction hammer twice, Mi Zhao raised his voice: "Today is the auction of the salt field under the control of the big man. If you don't recognize the big man, then why are you here? Hmm!"

Seeing that the atmosphere in the venue was slightly under control, Mi Zhao took a breath: "My friends, especially those from the north and the east. I am very sincere in this auction. All in all, the highest bid wins. After taking over the salt field, as long as you pay the salt tax on time, as long as the Dahan survives for one day, we will guarantee your rights to mining, transportation, and sales in the name of the Dahan. This point is jointly established by my Dahan’s Da Sima Mansion and Da Si Nong Mansion Guaranteed for everyone!"

"Well, it seems that everyone still trusts my reputation as a big man. Then let me talk about the auction rules. There are a total of 35 salt farms that will be auctioned this time. The one with the smallest production quantity is ranked first, and the largest one is of course last. No matter where your friends are, as long as you take pictures of the salt fields in Dahan, our Dasinong Mansion will provide you with the mining technology of Zhuotongjing for free. Hehe, everyone who is interested will know my Zigong Salt Field in Jiangyang County, Dahan. Before Zhuo Tongjing, there were only two salt wells in that place, but now? There are a total of three hundred salt wells! So, this is also the sincerity of my big man to everyone!"

"Then start the auction now. The first salt field, Nuodeng Salt Field in Bisu County, Yongchang County. There are five salt wells, with a daily salt output of 3000 shi. There is Guandao and Buwei County, where the county seat of Yongchang County is located. Connected, there are seven barbarian tribes in the surrounding area, all of which have settled in farming. Therefore, there is still some security. In addition, this place is close to the Lancang River, so if the salt in this place is to be sold to Buyeo and Chenla in the south, it is completely feasible. The starting price for this salt farm is 100 million. Each increase must not be less than [-] million. There is no upper limit on the increase. You can bid now."

As soon as Mi Zhao finished speaking, someone immediately said, "3000 million!"

There is no doubt that this is the childcare of the Fuxing Society.

But strictly speaking, this is not considered childcare, because Guan Yi's idea is that if no one really buys it, then the Fuxing Society will just take it-this is a cash cow.

It's a pity that people in this era just can't compare with the time traveler in terms of knowledge. If they are really more intelligent than the time traveler, the time traveler may not necessarily have the advantage.The Tao in this place is clear from others!

Five salt wells produce 2000% salt every day.That year was 20.00 shi.If it is sold at 300 ren per stone, that is more than [-] million renminbi.Well, there is a [-]% tax to pay, and the cost of mining, brewing, transporting, selling, etc.But no matter what, the annual net profit of such a small salt mine is at least no less than [-] million.It takes six or seven years to pay back the capital.

How much is the good land that can grow rice in this era?Generally 1000 yuan per mu.One mu of fertile land can only produce seven or eight stones of rice per year.The proceeds from the sale were no more than [-] texts.After deducting the cost of labor and seeds, the payback time for one mu of fertile land is at least ten years.So for this alone, investing in the salt industry is much more cost-effective than investing in fertile land.Not to mention that the amount of salt mines may further increase after obtaining Zhuo Tsutsui's technology.

Therefore, when the people from Fuxingshe yelled at the reserve price, a voice immediately rang out: "100 million!"

When the 100 million exit was announced, Mi Zhao on the rostrum and Guan Yi in the private room on the second floor heaved a sigh of relief: This auction is over!
"Ge Laozi's 100 million yuan just wants to take away our Nanzhong people's salt mine? 500 million yuan!"

"What happened to you Nanzhong people? Let me show you the financial resources of my Jingzhou people! 4000 million!"

"Mb, you have to fight with me, don't you? I'm Nanzhong Meng Yan! 4000 two million!"

Unfortunately, after Meng Yan blew himself up, the other competitors stopped talking.

This is the local emperor of Nanzhong, with more than 1 tribes under him.There are thousands of private soldiers.You pissed him off, how can you give birth well in Nanzhong?
"Boom, boom, boom!" Mi Zhao angrily knocked on the auction table: "Meng Xiuming! Are you here to spoil the scene?"

"Oh! Brother Bo Yao, I'm really sorry." Meng Yan, who had already realized that he had broken the rules of the auction house, also stood up at this time.With a thick back and a fierce face, he tried his best to pretend to be harmless to humans and animals, and said with a silly (maybe cruel) smile: "We people in Nanzhong are suffering, obviously there is a salt field next door, but we can't eat cheap salt. So I got angry for a while... Hey, if you are interested in the man from Jingzhou, please continue to increase the price. I, Meng Yan, swear to the sky here, if you can't compete with you and let you get this Nuodeng Salt Farm, I will never The slightest disruption to your production."

I bother!It's useless for you to say this at this time!

Sure enough, the person from Jingzhou, who was very temperamental just now, waved his hand in a dispirited manner: "Forget it, this salt field is still too remote. I will rob Brazil County or Badong County later. The salt mine over there is convenient. point."

"Hey, 4000 two million for the first time, the second time, and the third time! Boom~~~ deal!"

Seeing the success of the trick, Meng Yan smiled unconsciously.Mi Zhao gritted his teeth and said, "The official didn't speak clearly just now, and let this black man take advantage of the loophole. Before the next auction of the salt farm, the official added a rule: Any bidder must not reveal his identity. Otherwise, he will be expelled! Everyone No objection?"

"Da Sinong's article is fair, and we have no objection."

"Good, next is the second salt field. Baima Salt Field in Wenshan County. This salt field relies on a salt lake for its existence. There is no need to dig wells. Its production is mainly limited by manpower and transportation. At present, the daily output of this salt field is The amount of salt produced is 5000 shi. There are four Yi people’s cottages and three Qiang people’s cottages near the salt field, all of which have been settled and farmed. Therefore, public security is guaranteed... The base price of this salt field is [-] million, and you can bid.”

If you say that among the salt mines in the mainland, what is the coolest salt mine?That, of course, is the Salt Lake.Moreover, this salt lake is at the northern end of Wenshan County, and a little further up is Yinping County, and Yinping County goes north into Liangzhou controlled by Cao Wei.So, this time, apart from the dignitaries of the native families of the Shu Han, the local tyrants in Liangzhou couldn't bear it anymore.

"Fifty three million!"

"Hehehe, you want to take away a salt lake for 100 million? 500 million!"

"Hey! This accent is from Liangzhou! You Liangzhou people actually want to rob me of Yizhou's salt lake? Do you think that all Yizhou people are dead? 6000 million!"

"Hmph, I don't know if the Yizhou people are dead or not. I only know that we Liangzhou people have decided on this salt lake, 7000 million!"

"Hiss~~~ Are Liangzhou people rich? 8000 million!"

"You Yizhou people from MB are so unhappy about how you do things. Buy it now, [-] million!"

[-] million!It's actually twice as much as the reserve price? !

The Yizhou people over there were silent.The entire venue could only hear the arrogant laughter of Liangzhou people.

And Mi Zhao on the rostrum is also full of smiles at this moment: "Everyone, the first time with 15 million. Salt Lake is yours now."

Not only Mi Zhao on the podium was smiling, but Guan Yi in the private room on the second floor was also laughing.

As the host of this auction, he is actually very aware of the follow-up of the bidders just now.

Within the Shuhan regime, the Yizhou faction, Jingzhou faction, and Dongzhou faction each formed three consortiums to participate in the bidding.It was the representative of the Yizhou faction who had been biting with that Liangzhou native just now.On Cao Wei's side, more people came.The one who just won the Baima Salt Lake with [-] million yuan is the representative of the Anding Hu family.

In addition, there are representatives of the Sima family, the Yingchuan consortium formed jointly by the Yingchuan Xun family, the Chen family, and the Zhong family, the Hebei consortium composed of the Xin family, the Yin family, and the Cui family in Hebei, and the Yang family of Hongnong.

There are even more consortiums on the Soochow side. The Kuaiji consortium and the Wujun consortium have not made a sound at the moment. It is estimated that their eyes are all aimed at the big mines behind.As for the Soochow Jingzhou consortium, hehe, at this moment, Bu Chan, the second head of the Bu family of the first family in Jingzhou of Soochow, is sitting with him.

 To make a point, some friends expressed their dissatisfaction with pig's feet handling traitors without implicating the three clans.This involves a huge question: what kind of actions are the real time traveler?
  Modern people traveled to ancient times, killed a corpse filled with blood, and then ascended the throne as emperor?Or put some concepts of modern civilization into the era of time travel, and plant a seed for the progress of society a little bit?
  If I have wine today, I am drunk today, as long as my life is happy, I don't care about the flood in the future.Or because of thousands of years of knowledge, more or less for the sake of the future of the nation and the country?Every author and every reader has their own views and ideas.Not force.But personally, I fall into the latter category.

  In addition, the political tradition of the Shu Han has never involved family members. Under this loose policy, the surrender of the Shu Han is still less than that of Cao Wei and Dong Wu who wiped out the three tribes at every turn!Please think about why this is?
  The new power minister came up to change this tradition. Does he want to be imitated by others to kill the three clans?As long as you don't start with this, even if the protagonist fails in the future, your family will not be involved.This is the attitude towards politics, the country, and the family.
