Gao Huan entertained everyone for a meal, and Jiang Yan and Zheng Dong said goodbye and left.

The two returned to Yangzhou and notified Gao Huan's conditions to Yangzhou Salt Chamber of Commerce.

After hearing the conditions, Yangzhou salt merchants were heartbroken and regretful.

Originally, five million taels could be negotiated and made friends with a strong town, but now five million taels are not negotiated, and Gao Huan had to give him 10% of his share. They suffered heavy losses and lost their autonomy.

This gives shares, Gao Huan can interfere in the business and check the accounts, and there will be risks in making fake accounts and evading taxes in the future.

Now everyone can only hope that Gao Huan, a country bumpkin, doesn't understand their southern business.

For a time, Huang Shu, who caused this situation, became a rat crossing the street and was despised by everyone.

Faced with Gao Huan's army being overwhelmed by Huang Degong and Liu Liangzuo, the Donglin Party had no means to prevent Gao Huan from approaching Yangzhou except for slandering Gao Huan from swearing around.

Donglin's insults and rumors were useless to Gao Huan. He would not lose any meat when he was scolded for a few words. When they scolded them, Gao Huan ignored the soldiers who overwhelmed Yangzhou.

The nobles in Nanjing were really anxious.

After all, Lianghuai Salt Industry is an important source of their interests. If the salt merchants are not respected, how can the nobles still be indulge in poverty?

The salt industry's cake is so big, and Gao Huan is now snatching their territory.

If the nobles in Nanjing cannot help the salt merchants withstand the pressure of Gao Huan, then the salt merchants will only respect Gao Huan in the future. The share of filial piety to them will be reduced, and they will not even give them money.

The Nanjing nobles are not engaged in production and rely on money and power transactions to make profits. They are absolutely unwilling to lose their interests in the Huaihe River.

Therefore, the Duke of Wei, Xu Hongji, and the governors, were still making their final efforts. They mobilized the Jiang waterproof troops to Guazhou in the south of Yangzhou to support the salt merchants, but the navy could not reach the shore and could not drive Gao Huan away.

With Gao Huan leading the coalition forces of the three towns, he appeared outside Yangzhou City and set up camp. The salt merchants in the city finally collapsed and decided to compromise.

In an official society? Businessmen can never compete.

This time it seems that Gao Huan fought with the salt merchants? In fact, it was a fight with the salt merchants’ backer, the honors of Nanjing, and the officials and gentry in the southeast? It was a battle with them for territory and interests.

The salt merchant still has to do business? He can't handle it behind his back? He can only endure the pain and reconcile with Gao Huan so that he can reopen his business, so that he can still make a profit.

However, although the salt merchants were rich, the Ming Dynasty was an official society after all. Most of the money they earned entered the pockets of officials and nobles, and many of their assets became fields and shops. It was indeed difficult to take out five million taels of cash in one go.

Gao Huan's army set up camp outside Yangzhou City? The Yangzhou Salt Industry Chamber of Commerce arranged for people to transport the silver in the city? A cart of cars were transported out. Song Xiance, Yuan Gui and the military clerks went to count the silver in the camp. Within three days, he received 3.53 million taels of silver.

The white silver piled up like a mountain? Gao Huan, Ma Shiying, Huang Degong, and Liu Zehan were all shining.

Although it is still far from the quota of 5 million taels? But Gao Huan was already laughing and couldn't help but shake hands cordially with several salt merchants. "As a matter of good intentions, I am a marquis on behalf of the soldiers and the Ming Dynasty for your contributions."

Jiang Yan wiped his sweat, "Marty! Five million taels are too much, and I still have to leave some money to turn over. Can the rest be slowed down?"

Gao Huan frowned slightly. Five million taels are indeed a big deal. The Jiang family and other upstarts in Yangzhou have only been rising for decades, and it really requires capital to do business.

Now that Gao Huan has 10% of the shares, he doesn't want to ruin them, so his mentality is different. He pondered for a while and said, "Okay, the remaining money is lent to you, and he will only receive three cents of profit. How about it?"

Gao Huan copied nearly one million taels from Zuo Ge, and the more than three million taels were enough for a while.

The Central Plains were frequent wars and the economy was underdeveloped. The remaining money was transported back in the warehouse. It was better to use it to lend money in Jiangnan, invest, and make money with money.

With Gao Huan's strength, he could fully collect debts violently. I believe no one dared to pay the debt, so he agreed to ease it.

When Jiang Yan and others heard that they were going to collect interest, they felt ache, "Then let's make up a little more and give you enough 4 million."

Southeast merchants engaged in maritime smuggling trade, and a large amount of silver entered the Ming Dynasty from Japan, Luzon, Macau and other places every year.

After the money came in, many of them were not used to invest in expanding production.

Because of the smuggling of maritime trade, it was controlled by several maritime merchants, and the scale was limited, and the goods could not be sold, and instead did not make money, the silver flowing into the Ming Dynasty was mostly used to purchase land, build gardens, and then the land was purchased similarly, so most of them were buried underground and not circulated in the market.

Not only Henan, but also lacks investment projects, but also has a lot of money in Jiangnan. Because there is no investment channel, it is buried deep underground, waiting for someone to wake up.

Therefore, if he had money to bury it underground, the salt merchant would definitely not want Gao Huan to take the interest.

When Jiang Yan and others heard that they wanted interest, they decided to make up again, so they could not get Gao Huan.

In the end, Yangzhou salt merchants gathered an integer for Gao Huan, and the remaining one million was considered a loan.

Gao Huan went on a trip and got four million taels. He was satisfied and invited Tang Liang, Hou Fangbo and others to Yangzhou to form the Central Plains State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission. The two of them served as shopkeepers, managing one million taels of debt in Yangzhou. He also monitored the salt industry guild to reorganize the salt farm, implement 10% of his shares, and formed Henan Salt Industry to enter the salt merchant industry.

After getting the money, the next step is to share the spoils.

Outside the central army's large tent, the soldiers held spears and gained their advantage. Gao Huan, the tent, discussed with Ma Shiying, Huang Degong and Liu Zehan.

Gao Huan looked at Liu Zehan first and said in a deep voice: "You should not have been involved in this last time, but I will give you 100,000 taels. In addition, Yangzhou salt merchants are now protected by our salt merchants, so don't make any more decisions. Of course, everyone needs money to raise soldiers. In the future, I will allocate money to you from the salt merchants' dividends every year."

Liu Liangzuo hurried in Huai'an, and Gao Huan had no choice but to deal with them for a moment.

Huaian City is also located on a major transportation road and a key node in salt trade. I can only give him some benefits and stabilize this guy first.

Liu Zehan was able to get the money, but he was naturally unanimous. "I thanked the Marquis on behalf of my father!"

Gao Huan nodded slightly, and then said to Ma Shiying and Huang Degong: "Governor Ma, Brother Hushan, I promised Huang Fei before that I would give you 10% of the amount! Although the salt merchant owed the governor one million, the governor always counted when he spoke. This time, he would divide the 500,000 taels of the subordinates, and he would also give you dividends every year in the future!"

Ma Shiying and Huang Degong couldn't help but swallowed their saliva. Five hundred thousand years was enough for his expenses for more than a year.

Ma Shiying and Huang Degong both nodded slightly. Although they were happy, they also understood that in the future, money and grain would go from being controlled by salt merchants to being controlled by Gao Huan.
