Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 13, a panic transaction
The work of collecting salt in Xiahetun is progressing very smoothly. Be it the salt dealers or the villagers in Xiahetun, everyone is already very skilled in doing this work, and they also have a tacit understanding with each other.

In less than half an hour, the salt dealer had finished collecting the salt, packed the received salt, and was about to leave Xiahetun.

"Master Tang, I'm really sorry, I have to hurry here, next time I will personally come to your house to apologize."

After the salt was collected, Zhang Tianhao was also preparing to leave Xiahetun. Although doing this private salt business made money, it was actually exposed to the wind and the sun and had to climb mountains and mountains, so the daily itinerary was strictly arranged.

As soon as the salt is harvested, they will leave without delaying too long.

"Master Zhang is being polite, please do what you want."

Tang Huo smiled and nodded, stood up, and looked at his account room. Because he had a small number of people, there was still a long queue waiting to pay the cash.

"Then I will take my leave first."

Zhang Tianhao cupped his hands, and slowly left Xiahetun with his men in a long dragon.

"Master, Master, I found this package in the salt."

Not long after the salt gang left Xiahetun, the salt dealer who found Zhao Erhu's stuff in the salt also immediately came to Zhang Tianhao's side and gave the stuff to Zhang Tianhao.

"What is this?"

Zhang Tianhao pinched it lightly, it was very soft.

"Could it be that the villagers hid the sugar in the salt?"

As he unpacked the package, he thought the same way.

As for whether it could be sediment or something, he would never think so. First, the villagers in Xiahetun would never dare to seep sediment into the salt. Second, even if they mixed sediment into it, they would not be stupid. It was wrapped in paper, but it was wrapped in paper and hidden in salt like the sugar you bought.

"What is this?"

Soon, Zhang Tianhao opened the package, looked at the snow-white, snow-white thing in his hand, and at the same time a note was exposed.

Zhang Tianhao quickly picked up the note and read it carefully. As the leader of the gang, he can still read.

"Is this actually salt?"

"Snow salt?"

Soon, Zhang Tianhao finished reading the contents of the note, and then looked at the snow salt in his hand in disbelief.

He is in the private salt business, and he has seen many kinds of salt. This is the first time he has seen this snow-white, snow-white salt without a trace of variegation, and very small, like fine sand.

Then he dipped a little snow salt with his fingers and put it in his mouth, tasted it carefully, and his eyes widened immediately.

"Oh my god, this snow salt is even better than green salt, what kind of good salt is there in the world."

Zhang Tianhao couldn't help being amazed, he had seen and tasted all kinds of salt, almost all of them had an impure taste, more or less astringent, bitter and so on.

The better the salt, the purer the taste. The reason why the green salt is expensive is because the green salt contains very few impurities and has a pure taste, which is far from being comparable to the sea salt I bought myself.

But the taste of the bag of snow salt in front of him is even more pure, without any other taste, full of salty taste, the key is that the color is very good, snow white, snow white, like fine sand, this kind of salt, he is the first See you next time.

"If this kind of salt is transported to the capital for sale, it will cost at least 500 Wen a catty."

Zhang Tianhao set a price for this salt in his heart. The best green salt usually sells for 300 to 400 yuan a catty. Compared with green salt, this snow salt is even better, and the price is naturally even higher .

"Even if there is a load of such snow salt, this trip will make a lot of money."

A smile appeared on Zhang Tianhao's face. He has been in the private salt business for a long time. He knows very well how amazing the profits of high-quality and high-quality salt are. About 30 texts.

But he knows that those private salt dealers who sell green salt can earn more than 200 yuan per catty for the same catty of salt if they get it from the place of origin, and they can transport tens of thousands of catties of salt. Earn tens of thousands of taels of silver.

In contrast, he, Zhang Tianhao, really made hard money. He climbed mountains and ridges, ate and slept in the open, and every time he came to Xiahetun to collect salt. Sometimes, they can only receive a few thousand catties of salt, and earn even less.

Thinking of this, his heart became hot.

……

Five miles away from Xiahetun, beside a big rock at the foot of a mountain, Liu Jin and Zhao Erhu waited anxiously.

"Why don't you come, didn't you find the note we left?"

Zhao Erhu kept looking in the direction of Xiahetun while walking up and down.

"I saw him find what we left behind and they absolutely will come."

Liu Jin said with certainty.

The place I chose is off the main road, but the location is very easy to find. These salt dealers have been walking this road all year round, so it is impossible not to know this place.

"Come on~"

As soon as Liu Jin finished speaking, Zhao Erhu said nervously.

When Liu Jin heard this, he immediately stood up, looked forward, and saw Zhang Tianhao walking towards him with four or five people. He didn't bring everyone over, obviously because he was afraid of being discovered, and Or there are other considerations, and it is easier to do things with fewer people.

"Master Zhang~"

Liu Jin took a deep breath, pretended to be calm, and walked up to them. Facing these private salt dealers, Liu Jin didn't know if they would kill and steal. This is the wilderness, and there is no one in sight. If the other party kills and steals, he and Zhao Erhu probably died in the wilderness, and became a delicious meal for wolves.

"Are you Liu Xiucai from Xiahetun?"

Zhang Tianhao narrowed his eyes and looked at Liu Jin and Zhao Erhu. He knew Liu Xiucai, but Zhao Erhu didn't.

"It's down."

Liu Jin smiled and nodded.

"I have the guts to ask me to do business with two people. I really didn't expect that it would be you."

Zhang Tianhao looked at Liu Jin carefully, smiled and said.

"Because I'm also a person who wants to make a fortune, so I won't talk nonsense, my Xueyan, are you interested, Chief Zhang?"

Liu Jin was actually very panicked in his heart. Now this scene is the same as the gangsters trading illegal goods seen on TV. He is obviously weak and has to suffer, but on the surface he pretends to be very calm and calm.

"I'm interested, of course I'm interested, but what I'm more interested in is, where does this snow salt come from?"

Zhang Tianhao smiled, his eyes narrowed into slits, like a tiger looking at its prey, which made Zhao Erhu who was next to Liu Jin couldn't help but move closer to Liu Jin, and at the same time, he also clenched the pole in his hand.

"Master Zhang, it seems that it is against the rules of the world to inquire about other people's ways of making money."

Liu Jin said with a smile.

"Haha, well, you really have the guts, so let's talk about business."

Zhang Tianhao looked at Liu Jin, then laughed happily, and did not continue to delve into the origin of the snow salt. It is a taboo in the world to inquire about other people's wealth. Fortunately, the other party will fight to the end with shopping, so Liu Jin just smiled and passed it by.

"I'll take this snow salt, as much as I have, and pay the bill in cash."

"Cheer up, Huzi, bring out the snow salt."

Upon hearing this, Liu Jin gave a big praise, and then said to Zhao Erhu.

Hearing Liu Jin's words, Zhao Erhu hurried to the nearby woods to pick out a load of snow salt covered with a cloth.

"Master Zhang, please take a look. For the first cooperation, I only brought 100 catties of snow salt."

The snow salt was picked out, and Liu Jin also lifted the cloth covering it, revealing two baskets of snow-white, snow-white snow salt.

When Zhang Tianhao saw the snow salt, his eyes lit up. He came to the side of the snow salt, stuck a little on it with his hands, tasted it carefully, rubbed it, and confirmed that there was nothing wrong with it. He nodded in satisfaction.

"This snow salt, I'll give you 200 Wen a catty, what do you think?"

Then, Zhang Tianhao was silent for a while, and after thinking about it, he quoted a price.

This price is also the price he gave after careful consideration. Compared with the huge difference in the price of sea salt, the price of this snow salt can be said to be very good. Of course, this is also what he wants to stabilize this source of income. The price was quoted only because of more cooperation with Liu Jin.

"Guangzhu Zhang is refreshing, just count according to what you said."

Hearing this, Liu Jin thought for a while and nodded with a smile, saying that the price was about the same as what he expected in his heart, so he naturally didn’t need to bargain again. The key is this first cooperation. But it was a stroke of panic.

"Fresh, you are worthy of being a scholar. He was admitted as a scholar at a young age. I think he will be able to enter high school next year."

Seeing that Liu Jin readily agreed to the price, Zhang Tianhao also said with a happy smile, after the price was negotiated, Zhang Tianhao's subordinates also began to weigh all the salt, and at the same time carefully checked all the salt, packed the salt, and packed it in their own Inside the basket I brought over.

"With your good words, I really have a high school day, and please come over for a glass of wine."

After finishing the matter, Liu Jin also breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that the identity of this scholar is still very useful. If possible, I still want to take the imperial examination. Don't talk about things that are not good. It is also good to make friends with more scholars .

"For 100 catties of snow salt, 200 Wen per catty is 2 Wen. I will convert it into silver for you. The total is 13 taels and 5 Yuan. Do you think this number is correct?"

After checking all the salt here, there was no problem, Zhang Tianhao also readily paid for the money, this time he no longer gave the copper coins, but directly gave the silver.

"The number is correct, happy cooperation."

Liu Jin calculated silently, and there was no mistake in the number. Liu Jin had already inquired about the exchange ratio between copper coins and silver. Jin.

"Happy cooperation!"

"Liu Xianggong, if you still have snow salt in the future, please sell it to me."

After clearing money and goods, Zhang Tianhao did not leave in a hurry, but wanted to stabilize this way of getting rich.

"Guangzhu Zhang is a straightforward person, how about this, every time you come to collect salt, I will wait for you here."

As soon as Liu Jin heard this, he felt happy in his heart. He was about to confirm the future transaction with Zhang Tianhao, but he didn't expect him to speak first, and he said it after thinking about it.

"Okay, gentleman."

When Zhang Tianhao heard this, he also smiled.

"It's hard to chase a horse!"

Liu Jin nodded solemnly and said.

　I don't know if such an arrangement will work?
