Chapter 76 Liu Bang sells salt



Chapter 76 Liu Bang sells salt
After wandering around the academy.

Ying Changsheng walked towards the salt well in the distance.

When they arrived, Liu Bang, who was in charge here, hurried out to greet Ying Changsheng.

"Young Master Nineteen, my minister Liu Bang kowtowed to Young Master Nineteen!"

"Be flat!"

Ying Changsheng said to Liu Bang.

Immediately, he asked.

"Liu Bang, I want to ask you, how much salt have you produced in the past few days?"

"Returning to the nineteenth son, there have always been ten cars, a total of more than 7000 catties..."

"Oh, there are quite a few!"

Ying Changsheng murmured.

The cost of mineral salt is very low.

It stands to reason that such necessities of life for ordinary people should not be priced at a higher price.

However, the problem is.

Right now, Ying Changsheng urgently needs a sum of money. Thinking of this, Ying Changsheng couldn't help asking Liu Bang.

"Liu Bang, have you researched the market recently?"

"Do you know what the price of this salt is? What price do you think is more suitable for selling such quality table salt as we produce?"

"Nineteenth Young Master, I think we should be able to afford it by selling it at a consistent price per catty. We have such refined salt. You must know that even the salt on the market that is not as good as the salt we produce has a minimum price. , it’s always a catty of money!”

"Oh?"

After hearing the words, Ying Changsheng thought for a while, and then said to Liu Bang in front of him.

"Then you go to Xianyang City immediately and start selling salt. The price should not be set too high. The price of salt per catty is set at [-] yuan, which is a little lower than the market..."

"Young Master Nineteen, what is this?"

Liu Bang was a little confused, but Ying Changsheng asked with a smile.

"Let me ask you, what is the salt production of our well?"

"Very high!"

Liu Bang said without hesitation.

Ying Changsheng nodded and then asked.

"Since it's so high, then this thing is not a scarce thing, and it can't be sold at a high price. Now everyone doesn't know that we can produce this kind of table salt so easily, and the price is higher, that's all. But in the future , how can it be like this? Therefore, in my opinion, we should sell it at a low price before everyone reacts, so that those individuals will think that they have taken advantage of it and buy it wantonly. The last..."

Hearing this, Liu Bang's eyes lit up instantly.

He realized that this was the best way to make money, and he only heard him compliment Ying Changsheng.

"The nineteenth son is wise, Liu Bang understands, and Liu Bang ordered people to go to Xianyang to open a shop and sell salt!"

"very good!"

Ying Changsheng nodded to Liu Bang, and then, thinking of something, asked Liu Bang.

"By the way, when will Lu Zhi arrive in Xianyang?"

"Young Master Nineteen is talking about Jiannei? The minister has already sent someone to pick him up. Presumably, it won't be long before Jiannei will be taken to Xianyang..."

Liu Bang said with a smile.

Ying Changsheng nodded, very satisfied, and left in a hurry.

At the same time, Liu Bang ordered people to bring the produced salt into Xianyang City.

Liu Bang is a smart man.

As the emperor of the Han Dynasty in history, he is not without ability!

At this moment, I only saw Liu Bang. After entering Xianyang, he ordered his subordinates to make a big noise and yell in the market.

"Salt, good salt, good salt, the same table salt as the tribute salt that the emperor eats. It only costs [-] pounds a pound. The quantity is not much. First come, first served..."

Liu Bang's voice sounded.

Suddenly, it attracted the attention of many people.

Everyone gathered around one after another, intending to watch the excitement.

Immediately, after looking at the salt as white as snow.

For a moment, everyone's eyes widened.

Although Xianyang is at the feet of the emperor.

However, in this day and age.

The people of Xianyang have not yet been able to see such pure white table salt, so it is inevitable that they are shocked and inexplicable.

Liu Bang, on the other hand, glanced at the crowd around him.

His face showed contempt.

Well, these people are dressed in common clothes, and from the hairstyles on their heads, it can be seen that these people do not have titles, so it is unlikely that they will have money to buy this refined salt to eat.

Only Liu Bangdao was heard.

"Don't just look at it, is anyone buying it? Eight hundred yuan a catty, the price is not expensive!"

Liu Bang said.

Hearing this number, the onlookers on the side suddenly felt a little sad.

Yes, eight hundred dollars is not a small sum.

How could they be willing to spend so much money just to eat some salt?

And they are reluctant, but Xianyang City, as the capital of the Great Qin Empire.

But there are plenty of people who are willing to spend this money to buy this pure white salt to eat.

After all, there are always rich people in any era.

At this moment, when Liu Bang started shouting, the news spread throughout Xianyang Lilu as the crowd dispersed.

There were merchants who heard the news and moved quickly. When they saw the white salt, the merchants couldn't help but exclaimed.

"This, this salt, is it tribute salt?"

"Yes, it's exactly the same as tribute salt!"

Liu Bang said quickly, perhaps for publicity.

And the businessman, while his face changed slightly, said hastily.

"As many as there are, I'll buy them all!"

"There are several thousand catties, are you sure you can buy them?"

Liu Bang looked at the businessman in front of him playfully, and said with a smile.

"Uh……"

The businessman's face changed slightly.

If it is several thousand catties, then it will take several thousand guns to buy them all.

Even if all his net worth is added up, there is not so much.

Thinking of this, the businessman retreated to the next best option.

"Give me a hundred catties, but I have something to ask, who are you? Where did you get such delicate table salt?"

"Huh, don't you know this? Do you know who I am?"

Liu Bang immediately bragged about being awesome.

"Dare to ask Your Excellency, your name?"

The businessman was surprised, and asked Liu Bang. He thought Liu Bang was a big shot, and Liu Bang was a rascal himself, and he liked to brag. stand up.

"We don't change our name when we go, and we don't change our surname when we sit down. The surname is Liu Mingbang, who is from Pei County. Now, we work under the command of the Nineteenth Prince. All these salts are brought by the Nineteenth Prince and sold by us. You know, Who is the nineteenth son? He is the prince of today's emperor, if the salt is not for the benevolence of the nineteenth son, it will not be the turn of the common people to eat..."

"Now, you only need [-] yuan to buy a pound and take it home. What are you waiting for? Come and buy it!"

"So it's the nineteenth son!"

The businessman looked serious and bowed to Liu Bang.

At the same time, in the distance, a carriage passed by.

The people in the carriage were obviously startled by Liu Bang's voice, and he hurriedly said to the driver outside.

"parking!"
