Chapter 276

"Zhou's restaurant pays dividends once a month, and each time [-]% of the profit; the relationship between the furniture workshop and the plane has not yet been imitated, even if there is a high cost, so this part of the profit is also considerable; Selling to Xuzhou is a better business. This stuff is relatively high-end, and the non-middle class can’t afford it. But the price of salt and soybeans is also disappointing; the main income of the pharmacy is invested in the breeding of spirit beasts and intelligence work... There is no way to cash out the seafood processing workshop immediately..." Li Ming checked his family's financial resources, and suddenly felt a headache.

Many workshops are joint ventures, so it takes two to three months to pay dividends.Before the dividends were distributed, the Xun family actually borrowed money to help buy the land in Yuyao, and bought a small number of tenant farmers to maintain daily operations.

For Xun Cai's sake, Xun Biao didn't charge interest, but the land was a huge deal, and at least one year's dividends would be spent on it.If you are lucky and have a good harvest next year, there will be a lot of benefits.

There will be no expenses in the next year, so the income for the next year must be tight.As a big wife, Xun Cai naturally had to plan ahead, at least to ensure that the family had enough expenses.

"My lord, as the prefect of Kuaiji, you should be responsible for many things in the county, such as the issue of breeding spirit beasts. Normally, the lord should not be responsible for this!" Chen Ying is now considered to be under Li Ming's command. The second major was called over to help with financial issues, but he was helpless after watching for a long time.

"This is the financial situation of Kuaiji County, you can take a look!" Li Ming sighed helplessly, and handed over the last month's account book.

"There is still a shortfall of [-] guan!" Chen Ying only felt that it was a pitfall. The remoteness of Kuaiji County is remote. This year, fairs have been opened everywhere, and they have made a lot of money. So there is still a shortfall? !

"It's normal!" Li Ming said helplessly, "You know the business tax situation of the big man, and you can't collect any money at all. The key is that the price of food has increased, and the salary is paid in parallel, which means that the fiscal expenditure has further increased. The salt and iron are all in charge of Zhang and Zhu, and there are very few major mining areas, the key is that there is no well salt in Jiangdong.”

Yes, well salt not sea salt!These days, the main source of salt comes from well salt or mine salt, but not from sea salt!Even though Qingzhou, Youzhou, Jizhou, Xuzhou and Yangzhou are all close to the sea, none of the salt is boiled from the sea.

There is no other reason. People these days don't know how to filter. The salt in seawater is not just sodium. The mixed product is so bitter that no one will eat it.I heard that some people almost died after eating sea salt, and as a result, no one is willing to cook sea salt.

The small amount of well salt is basically in the hands of the Zhang family, and the purchase of bulk salt goods is almost monopolized by the Zhang family.Therefore, as much output as reported by the other party, the tax can only be collected according to this amount.As for concentrating on cracking down on private salt and private mines, Xun Biao has also prevented it. Now with his strength, if he dares to get involved, then he is afraid that the Jiangdong family will conspire to murder him.

Even for the farmland problem this time, it is still trying in Yuyao, but it is unlikely to be widely promoted.After all, in the era when grain was the main hard currency, the maximum amount of grain a family allowed to produce per mu of land was only one stone!
Yes, this number cannot be exceeded, and any means that can increase production are discarded!It is the court's business for the people to starve to death, but because of the sharp drop in food prices, the aristocratic family cannot make money, so they can use all means to kill people!

"I was vaguely aware of it before..." Li Ming couldn't help feeling, "Wars and fighting are the easy mode, and administration is the hard mode. If this is a game, isn't the game's balance too bad?"

It's a pity that this is not a game, and there is no way to adjust the difficulty of the game, so he can only find ways to increase revenue and reduce expenditure.The most important thing is that there is no way to save money, so we can only choose open source!
"If you don't want to find someone to try to boil the sea for salt... It seems that using charcoal can absorb sediment. As for the subsequent filtration, you can try it slowly. It is a waste of the name of the traverser to leave the huge coastline without boiling salt or even drying the salt. head!" Li Ming muttered.

It's just that if the method of boiling Haifa is successful, or even the method of drying salt is successful, then the salt industry will inevitably suffer a blow. At that time, Mrs. Zhang is only afraid that she will have to fight herself desperately.But for the sake of Kuaiji County's finances, there are some things that can't be done!
When the two of them were having headaches, Xiaotao came in with two bowls and said in a low voice, "My lord, just now the Peng family in Wuyishan sent some tea leaves (you read that right, it's indeed tea, it was only shortened to tea in the middle Tang Dynasty). The madam said that you are working hard on the housework, so she ordered the servants to cook some and serve it to you and your guests!"

"Okay, let's put it here!" Li Ming nodded, he was really not used to the so-called tea making.

Not to mention that tea is called tea, and it is cooked with a lot of condiments. It is better to say that it is tea soup than tea.No wonder I used to hear "eat tea, drink tea" before, but now I know what TM means.

"Hey, this tea (for the sake of trouble, continue to call it tea), it's a bit of a waste..." Li Ming took a sip, only feeling a faint fragrance in the oil and messy seasoning.

This is the most original taste of tea, and the key point is that the taste is much better than many teas.

"By the way, Wuyi Mountain! Isn't the tea produced in Wuyi Mountain the same as Dahongpao? No, when the time comes, we must take a look at those Dahongpao mother trees!" Li Ming stood up abruptly. After 2007, it was no longer available. The year he came, he had no choice but to drink it, and of course he couldn't afford it himself.

"By the way, there seem to be a lot of tea trees here in Kuaiji County?" Li Ming looked at Chen Ying.

"There are indeed a lot of wild ones, mainly concentrated in Qiantang and Wujun. But if you look for it in Kuaiji County, you can find it. Among them, Gaolu tea is the most common, and you can find it in many places in Kuaiji County." Chen Ying I don't know why Li Ming asked, maybe he was planning to start in this regard, so he kindly reminded, "Master, after all, tea is only enjoyed by a few scholars, so the sales volume is very small, and there is no trend. If you want to sell it at a good price, you can't easy!"

"That's them, my side... there must be a way!" Li Ming smiled wryly, and then he remembered that although he knew that the tea ceremony would be developed into stir-fried tea at the later stage.However, he doesn't know how the craftsmanship is, whether it's the group tea or matcha in the early stage, or the fried tea in the later stage.

It is estimated that it will take a long time to explore, but after all, there is a direction.On top of that, tea is definitely popular in winter, even though it's only late April.Not to mention the guys in the prairie, tea can definitely be sold out in the prairie.

It's just that it means conducting entrusted trade with a caravan that can go directly to the grassland... In the end, it still has to be cheaper than the Xun family, or even the Xin family? !
Li Ming really wanted, really wanted to be able to monopolize all the profits once, but found that in these years, especially in these years when transportation is very inconvenient, if he wants to eat alone, he can only do it if he is strong enough.

It's a pity that what Li Shi lacks the most now is hard power!

"Forget it, let's find some tea and come back first, let's find a way to explore first!" Li Ming muttered, "I didn't expect Peng Die to have the characteristics of Wangfu? I was short of money just now, and it reminded me of the idea of ​​tea." Buy and sell!"

 Li Ming, who has no money, extends his poisonous hands to the low-tech tea business...

  Knowing that there are no monsters recently, many people feel bored.Some people may even say: "The author is really not good at writing about fighting!"

  No way, the south of the Yangtze River is not as good as the north, so how can there be so many monsters?But it will be arranged. After all, this is the theme. You can’t get experience points just by playing with internal affairs. This is another article...
