The revival of Shu Han

Chapter 175 Salt Field Auction ([-])
"Well, according to Zifeng, do you want to buy grain on a large scale? How big is this scale?"

Guan Yi held out a finger.

"100 million? Hey, my Bu family can make it up for you with a little tightness. Don't talk about it, I'll take care of it!"

"Uh, I want 1000 million."

"Oh, 1000 million. Huh?! 1000 million! What are you doing? Are you going to go to the Northern Expedition again?"

"Hey, don't ask too much about this Zhongsi. In short, the situation of the pseudo-Wei Duqiang has not fundamentally changed. So as long as my brain is not bad, I won't have any thoughts about your Wu country. You Just make that clear.”

"Well, that's true. Well, it would be good if it was 1000 million. Anyway, there are a lot of grains in the warehouses of various companies these years. In the past, everyone could use these old grains to make wine. Since your fruit wine came out, these old grains have been It's just piled up in the warehouse and moldy!"

"Hmph, Zhong Si, you are not allowed to fool me with moldy old grains."

"Hey, which one of us is with whom. But let me tell you, you need 1000 million shi of grain after all. It's impossible to ask for all new rice. But I guarantee that it will be old rice from last year at most, and there will be no mildew."

"Okay, I'm relieved with your words, come, let's have a drink."

……

"My friends from the thirteen states, after 34 rounds of fierce bidding, none of the 34 salt farms that we auctioned before failed to bid. Here, Mi Zhao would like to thank all friends for their strong support! Next, is the auction. The last salt field: Daying Salt Field in Brazil County! There are more than 52 mines in this salt field, all of which have realized the production of Zhuotong well technology, and [-] of them have their own associated natural gas. Its output is enough to ensure the boiling of the brine in the whole field, and there is no need to dispatch The salt field is cut by hand to boil salt. The daily output of the salt field is [-] shi! Moreover, all the Han people are near the salt field, and there are also Brazilian county soldiers stationed. At the same time, it is close to the Jialing River and the Han River. Very convenient... The base price of this salt farm is [-] million yuan! Now you can bid!"

While Guan Yi and Bu Chan were blending, the auction hosted by Mi Zhao was also coming to an end.

At this moment, after many rounds of competition, some consortiums have no money left because they bought more salt farms earlier.Some consortiums are not strong enough. Although they are salivating when they see the salt field with such a huge output and such convenient transportation, they really have more than enough energy.Therefore, compared to the chaotic and lively bidding in the small salt farm in front, the bidding at this time seems a bit deserted.

However, although it was deserted, the chilling air was also filled with tragedy.

"Four hundred million!"

"Hmph, aren't you Yizhou people very arrogant at the beginning? You swallowed at least 34 of the [-] saltworks. Why don't you dare to increase the price now? Adding [-] million to [-] million in such saltworks is meaningless. Six hundred million!"

"This accent is from Yingchuan! Humph, Wei Ni!"

"Hmph! Shu thief!"

"Dong dong dong~~~!! Be quiet and quiet, two, if you use the map cannon again, I will expel you from the arena. Okay, the first time for [-] million! Has anyone raised the price?"

"Hohohoho~~~ How much money do Yingchuan people have? How is it compared to our Jizhou people? Eight hundred million!"

"It's really weird. This salt mine is so far away from your Jizhou. What are you buying it for? One billion!"

"Eh? Judging from your accent, you are from Wu County. This salt mine is not close to you! 11 billion!"

"Shut up! I'm from Kuaiji, so I'm not a Wujun dog. Ah, speaking of which, didn't you think it was ridiculous to add 13 million? Why did you only dare to add [-] million now? [-] billion!"

"Hmph, why are Kuaiji pigs so arrogant? It's a pity that you met us from Wu County! 15 billion!"

"MB's Wujun dog, it's enough to exploit our Kuaiji people in Dawu. Do you want to tear down your father in Yizhou? 20 billion!"

"Hehehe, 20 billion? How many years will it take you to pay back? So all of you in Kuaiji are pigs. I don't play anymore. Hahahaha~~~~"

"The first time of 20 billion? The second time of 20 billion? Is there any friend who increases the price? This is the last salt field. The third time of 20 billion! Boom! Deal! Congratulations to this friend holding the No. 32 quotation plate! , today's auction is coming to an end, please go to a small black room in the backstage for the friends who just took pictures of the salt field to make the corresponding handover. Well, according to the prior instructions, you need to pay a part of the deposit first. Then you can start Arrangements have been made to take over. Thank you friends for your support, and send you off!"

The auction was over, and Mi Zhao was busy handing over to the local tyrants who had taken pictures of the salt field, even busier than before.And it was not easy for Guan Yi.Because, compared to the upright Bu Erye just now who can only be described as stupid, the person he is talking to now is really not easy to mess with.

"Mr. Zichu accepted Guan Yi's invitation and took risks to come to Yizhou. I really admire him!"

That's right, the two sitting in a more secret room, except for Guan Yi, the rest is Sima Wang, the new commander of the Yongzhou Legion of the Cao Wei Empire, General Zhengxi!

"Hehehe, I met Jian Wushuang, Li Lingbo, Ma Zhongying and others in Luoyang two or three months ago. I hope that I am very interested in Guan Zifeng who can drive these outstanding people. Seeing him today, he really deserves his reputation!"

"Don't dare to be the first public to make false praises."

"It's not ridiculous praise. Zifeng, the auction just now won no less than 100 billion, right?"

"Well, after a rough calculation, it should be a little over 100 billion."

"Hehehe, it's not just that. You get the money, you can do what you want to do, such as improving people's livelihood, and even import a large amount of grain from Soochow or my Great Wei. And then implement tax exemption in your country to appease Popular support and stable status. Moreover, after the salt farms are handed over to private individuals, the amount of salt produced will inevitably increase, and the price of salt will also drop. Not only will the common people have more food, but it will also be cheaper to buy salt. Once these two things are abundant , the common people are not dead set on you?"

This Sima Wang is really amazing!

"Hehe, everything can't escape the eyes of Duke Zichu. Then I want to ask, just now, Duke Zichu?"

"My nephews pooled up one billion and sent people here to buy a salt farm, but I'm not interested."

Why are you not interested?Is there anyone in the whole world more interested in money than you?If you hadn't left the town of Chang'an and replaced someone else, would I have been able to invite you?The reason why you didn't make a move to buy the salt farm is because you have already seen through the essence that the price of salt will drop and the time to pay back will be greatly extended, right?
"Hehehe, Mr. Zichu is elegant, and he would not be interested in these vulgar things. Then, Mr. Zichu, let's talk about things that can make people elegant. I sent someone to give you high-quality liquor last month. what do you think?"

That's right!It's high alcohol.

For a traveler, making liquor with a temperature of [-] to [-] degrees in this era is like playing - isn't it just distillation and cooling, a traveler can do it.But in the past, in Fuling County, due to the lack of food self-sufficiency for a long time, Guan Yi would never take out this thing-that is, after Fuling County initially achieved food self-sufficiency, he secretly brewed a little bit to satisfy his hunger. use.But he completely lost interest after drinking the high-strength liquor brewed by himself-the water quality is problematic, and the quality of the wine is too poor.

If we talk about the ranking of Chinese baijiu in later generations, Moutai's ranking is probably not controversial.The second one, Guan Yi personally thinks it is Wuliangye.Then Luzhou Laojiao is a little behind.

The practical water for these three kinds of liquor comes from a river—Chishui River.Moutai is in the upper reaches, Yibin is in the middle, and Luzhou is in the lower reaches—in fact, the whole Chishui River is five hundred miles away, and there must be a famous wine within a hundred miles.And the more upstream the wine, the better!
It is very fortunate that the entire Chishui River is now within the territory of the Shu Han.

So, now, it's time to take out the new big killer of high-alcohol baijiu.

In April of this year, after receiving the news that Sima Wang had returned to Chang'an, Guan Yi sent someone to deliver a batch of high-grade liquor to Sima Wang.Although this batch of wine was brewed with the bad water with extremely high mineral impurities in the Wujiang River, in Guan Yi's opinion, the quality was very low.But for people in the Wei and Jin Dynasties who never drank more than [-] degrees, the high-strength baijiu with a strong aroma, clear and transparent taste, like a knife in the mouth, and melted into the stomach, really looks like a fairy brew from the sky!

And who is Sima Wang?A celebrity who can sing with Cao Mao of "Wen Tong Chen Si".He knows very well how attractive this thing is to those celebrities after it goes on the market!
Celebrities, all want to be wild and uninhibited.How can we be wild naturally instead of pretending to be wild?In the past, it was based on five stones powder - after eating that thing, it would be manic and hallucinogenic.But there are really not too many side effects-eating for a long time will definitely become a mental illness.And a very short-lived psychosis.

And this wine is different!Celebrities always like to drink alcohol, drinking this is not only elegant, but also naturally wild!It is simply a big killer that leads the trend of the times!

Therefore, Sima Wang ventured to Chengdu in person.

"I won't talk too much, Zichugong, you provide me with sorghum, wheat, rice and other grains, and I will sell you this kind of wine. The quality will only get higher and higher... At this price, a mouthful The price is thirty stones of grain and one stone of wine!"

(Unscrupulous Guan Yi, you must know that since modern China, the common people have known that the ratio of three catties of grain to one catty of wine is basically constant when producing liquor with a degree of more than 45 degrees. Five catties of grain and one catty of liquor would be a big deal.)
"Well, I can agree to this price. My request is..."

"Of course, this wine can only be sold by people designated by Mr. Zichu. Including my Fuxing Society, they only produce it and cannot sell it!"

"Good! This matter is settled!"
