After Liu Ruoyu wrote two imperial edicts, he was really shocked.

Originally, he thought that the emperor would probably choose to calm down the situation, and at most, he favored the prince of Zhejiang and Sichuan and refused to pursue the beating of him.

Unexpectedly, the emperor would clearly support the Prince of Zhejiang and Chuan to beat people.

The Taoist practice of the prince of Zhejiang and Sichuan is deeper than he imagined!

Could this little prince really know how to see the eyes?

The appearance of Lihuo in the Southern Ming Dynasty should come from the "Book of Changes". I heard that it is very accurate to use this fortune-telling.

Perhaps, he should really listen to the Prince of Zhejiang and Sichuan and go to Yunyang to supervise the army.

You know, he was the proud disciple of Chen Ju, the former chief of the Sili Supervisor and the admiral of the East Factory.

It’s a pity that Chen Ju died too early and was held down before he got up.

He knew very well that he would probably have no future when he was in the palace. He listened to the prince of Zhejiang and Sichuan to go to Yunyang to supervise the army. If he is lucky, he might be able to make a future.

So he used the gold he sent to him with rubbish and began to fight for the position of the Yunyang Army Supervisor.

Of course, this is all a story later, so I will skip it for now.

By the way, Zhu Qizhe felt so proud after receiving the imperial edict. Sure enough, if you want to survive in troubled times, you have to go crazy!

Now, Zhang Nengju has been dragged to Nanyang and chopped down. County Magistrate Wu Weinan has also been dismissed from office and investigated. There is also an imperial edict in hand. No matter how vicious Zhang is, he must consider it. Can he, a crazy prince, be prosecuted?

Unfortunately, he did not get a penny of the property of the country gentry Zhang Nengju, and was taken back by the Tang royal family, the Zhang family.

There is another way to find this money and food!

After he had planned it secretly, he took Zhao Zhengdao and his son straight to Fan Rong's mansion.

This was his first visit to the Fan family.

When the Fan family heard that the scary little prince was coming, they were all so scared that they were afraid to let go. Fan Rong was so excited that he knew about Zhang Nengju and Wu Weinan. Moreover, the emperor also issued an imperial edict to the little prince and rewarded the mountains and forests near Zhejiang and Sichuan to the little prince.

This proves that the emperor is now on the side of the little prince, who has completely gained a foothold in Zhejiang and Sichuan, and it is even possible to return to Nanyang and enter the Tang Palace!

If the Fan family is about to develop, the Fan family will develop!

He treated his son-in-law like a father, led him respectfully, and walked towards the mansion with excitement.

Zhu Qizhu followed him and looked around with interest.

This Fan Mansion is really strange. It is obviously a big place, but it is not built into a large mansion. There is not even a larger courtyard inside. It is all small courtyards separated by walls, one after another, like a maze. If no one leads it, you will really get lost.

After Fan Rong led the red utensils through several small courtyards, he finally came to a quiet courtyard.

The surroundings are relatively empty and there are no servants, so it is indeed a good place to speak.

Fan Rong was about to discuss the marriage between the two families with the little prince. Unexpectedly, after the two entered the lobby, Zhu Qicai was nervous and let Zhao Zhengdao and his son guard the door, making it like a conspiracy to rebel.

Which one are you singing this?

Is there anyone in Zhejiang and Sichuan who dares to provoke you?

I'm afraid no one in Nanyang will dare to mess with you!

What are you doing like a thief?

Fan Rong didn't know whether he would kill the servants to serve tea.

While he was hesitating, Zhu Qizhu asked nervously: "My father-in-law, are you really selling private salt?"

this!

范荣闻言,目瞪口呆.

您问这个干吗!

这事,让人怎么说?

He hesitated for a moment before he said tactfully: "Prince, our Fan family has always followed the rules in business. We sell salt, salt quotes, etc., which are quite complete. However, sometimes, the private salt collected by the Salt Ke Tijuan Department will be sold by our Fan family. After all, all the salt has been collected and cannot be transported back or even destroyed on the spot."

What you are doing is not saying that you are selling private salt.

very good!

Zhu Qidiao asked directly: "How much official salt can you sell this year and how much private salt?"

王爷,您怎么老是问这个啊?

这是犯法的!

Fan Rong subconsciously looked at the door and then said carefully: "The official salt is only a few hundred thousand kilograms, and the private salt is only a few tens of thousands kilograms."

卧槽,这么多!

Zhu Qizhu couldn't help but say excitedly: "How much money do you have to earn this year?"

Unexpectedly, Fan Rong couldn't help but shook his head and sighed: "If you just sell salt, you can't make much money. Official salt is too expensive, and we can only make a few cents per pound. Although private salt is cheap, the big one has to pay the Salt Department, and we can only earn ten cents per pound. If you count off labor, store, transportation costs, etc., it would be good if you can get one cent of a pound of official salt. For private salt, the net profit is only five cents at most."

晕死,卖几十万斤盐才能赚多少钱?

If calculated based on the price of rice, a penny would roughly be equivalent to 50 cents in later generations, which means that the Fan family would be able to earn hundreds of thousands of dollars a year at most.

这也太少了吧?

Zhu Qizhu asked again: "What is the price of salt now?"

Fan Rong said without hesitation: "The salt price in Nanyang is roughly only about two cents per kilogram, and there has not been much fluctuation in recent years."

卧槽,两分银子,一百多块钱一斤!

The cost of salt is actually not high. Whether it is sea salt or well salt, it only costs a little labor and firewood to cook it. The cost of a pound of salt is only a few cents at most.

这其中的利润,果真高得吓人!

No wonder so many people sold private salt in ancient times, and this transaction was too profitable.

If we can monopolize the private salt of Nanyang and even the entire Henan, we will have the capital to start our business!

Zhu Qizhu grabbed his fist and gasped for a while, and suddenly asked again: "You said that the private salt is also provided by the Salt Ketijuku Department. Which Salt Ketijuku Department?"

Fan Rong looked at the door carefully again, and then whispered: "Sichuan Yankeshi Tijuku Department."

There were seven Salt Cortex Divisions in the Ming Dynasty. Except for Sichuan and Yunnan, the other five were on the coast. Sichuan produced well salt. It seems that the people of the Salt Cortex Division had monopolized the private salt produced in Sichuan.

Zhu Qizhua asked again: "Do you know how much well salt, how much official salt, and how much private salt are produced in Sichuan a year?"

Fan Rong estimated: "Sichuan has more than 6,000 salt wells in total. In a year, at least 60 million kilograms of well salt can be produced. However, the official salt with a salt invoice number is only 30 million kilograms, and the others are all private salt."

卧槽,这帮家伙,真敢贪啊!

Zhu Qizhe asked again: "Do you know Yanketijustijustijustijustijustijustijustijustijustijusti? Where did you sell your private salt?"

Fan Rong whispered: "Of course I know the people of the Yanketec Department. If I don't give them filial piety, there will be hundreds of thousands of kilograms of salt a year. As for private salt, it was not what I went to sell, but they sent it, because the Sichuan Yanketec Department was originally responsible for the transportation of salt in the southwest well."

This is a typical custodial robbery!

very good!

If you don’t give me a share of the pie, I will go crazy and ask if you are afraid!

A crazy money-making plan gradually formed in Zhu Qizhu's mind. He planned it secretly, and then asked nervously: "When will they send salt?"

Fan Rong estimated: "It should be just a few days."

Zhu Qi nodded heavily, then said confidently: "Okay, then, call them the ones who lead the way, and I ask him for some private salt."

this!

Little Prince, are you kidding?

You are a prince, asking for personal salt from others!

Fan Rong was stunned for a moment, then asked carefully: "Prince, how much do you want?"

Zhu Qidiao asked back without answering: "Do you know how much private salt they ship to Henan?"

Fan Rong estimated: "It can be at least tens of millions of kilograms a year."
Chapter completed!
