Start Summoning West Factory Flower

He doesn't care about the reason for the establishment of the Yihua Palace. For him, the appearance of a first-rank martial artist in Shanhai County is a major event.

There are only a handful of first-rank warriors in Beishan Province, and each of them represents a force. Now that there is one more force, it is possible to create a new force.

The cooperation between Yihua Palace and the King will inevitably affect the situation of the entire Beishan Province.

When he came, he had already seen Shanhai County building roads in the mountains, so it seemed that Shanhai County's prefecture's mansion would soon reach out to Beishan Province.

One more power means one more opponent competing for interests, which is not a good thing for Sijianmen.

Sijianmen is the largest sect in Beishan Province. There are two first-rank masters in the door. The sphere of influence involves the four northern houses of Beishan Province. If Shanhai County wants to go out, it will definitely compete with their Sijianmen for interests.

It was when he understood this that he felt a sense of crisis in his heart.

Chapter 82 Get Rich Together

Zheng Ming didn't know what Liu Yuan was thinking, so he just continued: "The other sect is Beixuanzong, which was originally a martial artist force on the Luoyu Islands. When this king saw that they had some strength, he recruited them."

"Mr. Liu also knows that Shanhai County is poor, and there are many savage mountain people. This king is young and he doesn't have many reliable people, so he can only recruit some warriors. I hope they can protect the safety of this king."

Liu Yuan nodded and said, "Your Highness must have suffered a lot in Shanhai County, and this old man understands His Highness's difficulties."

He doesn't care what he is struggling with, what he really cares about is the strength of this Northern Xuanzong.

If it's not strong, that's fine, it won't have much impact on Beishan Province, but if it has a first-rank martial artist like Yihua Palace, it will be troublesome.

Maybe he really has to cause some trouble for the young prince.

Seeing his calm face, Zheng Ming cursed in his heart, "This is an old fox."

Although he didn't know what Liu Yuan was thinking, he knew that Liu Yuan certainly didn't really understand his difficulties.

He had no troubles at all, and Liu Yuan understood it again.

Zheng Ming coughed lightly and said, "Mr. Liu should have seen this king building roads in the mountains when he came, right?"

"I see, your Highness, is it a bit of a waste of time and money?" Liu Yuan said softly.

Zheng Ming's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Hehe, it's definitely a waste of money, but there are also many rewards."

Liu Yuan's heart moved slightly.

What does it mean?

Does this county prince really plan to go to Beishan Province?

Apparently, he thought that what Zheng Ming said in return was going to Beishan Province to compete for benefits.

"Tell Mr. Liu a secret, this king has opened up the sea route in Shanhai County, and now this king's fleet can reach the Dongying Dynasty and the Great Zhou Dynasty!" Zheng Ming said in a low voice.

Liu Yuan was stunned, then looked at Zheng Ming in shock.

"What do you mean, Your Highness?"

"The opening of the sea route means that Shanhai County can obtain a large amount of precious goods from the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Dongying Dynasty, and these goods cannot be digested in Shanhai County, so this king intends to sell it in Beishan Province."

Zheng Ming said with a smile: "Sijianmen's sphere of influence involves the four northern houses and must have their own business, if we cooperate~"

Liu Yuan opened his eyes slightly and looked at Zheng Ming in amazement.

To be honest, he was not at peace at this time.

Zheng Ming didn't say anything later, but he knew exactly what it meant.

Massive profits.

Selling the special products of the Eastern Ying Dynasty and the Great Zhou Dynasty to the Dali Dynasty will definitely have a high profit.

Needless to say, the Dongying Dynasty, the Dali Dynasty has never had business dealings with the Dongying Dynasty. Many special products of the Dongying Dynasty cannot enter the Dali Dynasty, especially the Dongying Dynasty is rich in silver. There are many silver mines. Enough to earn the pot full.

On the contrary, the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Dali Dynasty bordered, and the border between the two sides was very long, but the border meant that there were disputes, especially territorial disputes, which never stopped.

There has been no war between Dali and Dazhou in these years, but the relationship between the two sides is not very good.

The relationship between the two countries is not good, there are few commercial exchanges, and many commodities cannot be circulated.

For example, the cloud yarn that is rich in Dazhou is more expensive than gold in the Dali Dynasty.

If Da Zhou's cloud gauze can be transported to the Dali Dynasty for sale, the income is absolutely beyond imagination.

Not only cloud yarn, but also other commodities, all have high profits.

Thinking of those sects at the junction of the two countries, Liu Yuan's heart pounded.

Those sects rely a lot on this to earn money, and they are all very rich.

"It is my Sijianmen's honor that His Royal Highness can see our Sijianmen."

Liu Yuan's attitude changed instantly, becoming amiable and humble.

"Haha, Mr. Liu is being polite, we will benefit from both, and we will make a fortune together in the future!" Zheng Ming laughed.

"Yes, let's make a fortune together!" Liu Yuan also laughed.

"It will take half a year to complete the construction of the mountain road leading to the northern side of the house. After a while, I will arrange for someone to visit Sijianmen, and I will ask Mr. Liu to take a look at it." Zheng Ming said.

"Your Highness, rest assured, the old man believes that the senior brothers in the door will definitely be willing to cooperate with His Highness." Liu Yuan said.

As long as Sijianmen is not stupid, they will not refuse to cooperate.

As for the rest, it's all little things.

Next, the atmosphere in the room became much more harmonious, and Liu Yuan's attitude was getting better and better.

As for the sect censorship, huh, that's not a problem.

Liu Yuan stayed in Shanhai County for three days before leaving. He only went to Beixuanzong, which was closer to the county seat, to have a look. He didn't even go to Yihua Palace.

However, he still raised a lot of questions, such as recruiting too many disciples, overstepping sect buildings, etc., some of which are not a problem.

No matter what, he is the deputy head of the Hundred Sect Hall.

In this regard, Zheng Ming also readily accepted, these are not major issues.

Naturally, before Liu Yuan left, Zheng Ming also presented a famous sword, a high-grade sword bought from the Great Zhou Dynasty, worth 5 taels of silver.

……

Four Royal Islands, Jiuli City.

The Xuyan agent recruitment meeting was about to be held, and all the daimyo on the entire Siyu Island sent Mu Chen to Jiulicheng.

For a time, Jiuli City was bustling and bustling.

When night fell, the Jiuli Daming Mansion was decorated with lanterns, and Mu Chen dressed in brocade clothes walked into the door with gifts.

In the splendid hall, all the famous Muchens took their seats one after another, and Maori Dalang sat on the main seat, with a fat head and big ears smiling like a Maitreya Buddha.

Such a scene greatly exceeded his expectations, and at the same time satisfied his vanity.

At the same time, it also reflects the popularity of Snow Salt in Shimishima.

A small grain of salt actually attracted all the big names.

Of course it is not the salt that attracts them, but the profit.

Standing behind the screen, Li Chuan looked at the people in the hall, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

A group of people looked friendly, but their eyes were filled with all kinds of malicious intent.

"It's time to start!" Li Chuan said to his followers.

Since then.

There was a burst of elegant music in the hall, and Li Chuan boarded the temporary platform.

After a few conversations, Li Chuan began to explain the rules for recruiting agents.

"Friends, this recruitment of agents is carried out by auction. The agent period is three years. The agent products include snow salt and ordinary sea salt. The agent purchase price of snow salt is [-] taels per load, and the agent purchase price of ordinary sea salt. Eight coins per load."

"Our Shanhai Chamber of Commerce will divide Siyu Island into four agency areas, of which Jiuli District has been acquired by Maori daimyo, and you can fight for the remaining three agency areas."

"Once you become an agent in the agency area, all the salt products of our Shanhai Chamber of Commerce will be handed over to the agent for sale. At the same time, the agent must reach the annual sales quota of 10 taels of silver, otherwise he will lose the agency right for the next year."

Chapter 83 Agent Recruitment Conference

While explaining the rules, Li Chuan observed the following reactions.

This time, he not only has to recruit an agent for Xueyan, but also an agent for ordinary Haiyan.

In fact, the difference between snow salt and ordinary sea salt is not big, they are all dried from the salt field.

It's just that the snow salt is as pure as snow, and the ordinary sea salt is slightly variegated.

The snow salt he shipped before was actually a mixture of the two. It was much whiter than the boiled salt, but it had not reached the point of pure white as snow.

However, with the continuous testing of the salt field, it is now possible to achieve pure white as snow, but the process is more troublesome. Compared with ordinary sea salt, the output is larger and the cost is lower.

Thanks to the chaos of the Four Imperial Islands, the salt administration of the Eastern Ying Dynasty was basically relaxed, and he started the idea of ​​the private market.

Snow salt follows the line of noble brands, while ordinary sea salt follows the line of ordinary people. The two are not in conflict.

And his price is really low, not to mention snow salt, which is expensive in itself, and the price is in his hands, but the price of ordinary snow salt is far lower than the cost price of boiled salt, which is three to four per load. Around money.

It is conceivable that a load of ordinary sea salt entering Siyu Island will have a great impact on the salt industry of Siyu Island, and all the people who make a living by boiling salt will lose their jobs.

In this regard, Zheng Ming agreed. He originally formulated the brand line of Xueyan because he was afraid of causing harm to the people in the Dali Dynasty, but in the Dongying Dynasty, there was no such scruples.

The four agency areas divided by Li Chuan also took a lot of thought.

Needless to say, Jiuliguo knew that it was to win over Maori Dalang, while the other three agency areas were to create conflicts.

There are four or five big names in each agency area, and there are contradictions among them. If you provoke them again, maybe there will be a real fight.

If the snow salt before was not enough to make everyone go crazy, then adding ordinary sea salt made everyone in the hall boil.

Eight cents of silver per load is three to four cents lower than the cost of boiling salt.

Even if it is sold at the cost price of boiled salt, the profit is very amazing.

Immediately, everyone in the hall was talking, and even Taro Maori was excited.

No one in this world thinks that there is too much money, even the richest Maori daimyo on Siyu Island still wants more money.

Now Maori Dalang is a little regretful. He not only wants the agency rights of Jiuliguo, but also the agency rights of other agency areas.

"Ahem, friends, please be quiet. Now we are starting the auction. The first agency area includes Hitachi Daimyo, Tamba Daming, Yamato Daming, and Siyuan Daming. The starting price is 1 taels of silver."

Li Chuan smiled, his eyes shining brightly at the people below.

His eyes stayed on Sun Yu's body for a while.

This time Sun Yu is here on behalf of the Siyuan Kingdom. He is here to make soy sauce. With the strength of the Siyuan Kingdom, he is not qualified to bid for the agency.

And the power of agency is not a good thing for the quaternary country.

"We pay 2 taels in Changlu!"

"Twenty-five thousand taels in Danbo!"

"Yawa [-]!"

……

Immediately, the representatives of the three famous countries in the same agency area started frantically bidding.

For them, the agency right this time must be obtained.

Not only for the benefit of salt, but also to prevent other daimyo countries from gaining agency.

Getting agency means getting a lot of wealth, and making your opponent stronger means you're getting weaker.

Don't say anything about banning salt from entering your territory, that's impossible.

The common people don't care about this, they are willing to buy as long as it is cheap, and at the same time, as long as there is profit, some people will take risks.

The huge Dali Dynasty banned more than illicit salt, not to mention their famous countries.

The asking price was higher and higher, but it reached 6 taels of silver in a short while.

The smile on Li Chuan's face became even better. He didn't need to sell salt, but this auction was enough to make him a lot of money.

Originally, he thought it would be good to get 3 taels for an agency right, but he didn't expect to double it.
