Feng Xing

King Wei did not stay much, and left the next day, as if he was just passing by as he said.

Feng Sheng is too lazy to care what he thinks. This person's mind is too difficult to guess. She has too much to do, how can she analyze him.

However, she also opened the New Year gift presented by Wei Wang. They were all pen, ink, paper, inkstones and other objects. The only thing that was a little unusual was a golden hairpin.Feng Sheng took this golden hairpin for a long time, and still had a terrible headache. He simply put it back in the box and stopped thinking.

It's another year of spring and March, and the spring is blooming.

Feng Sheng frequently traveled between Banpu Town and the Saltworks. In the middle, she returned to Yangzhou. After only five days, she returned to Haizhou.

Because of the long time spent in the salt drying farm, Feng Sheng is not as fair as before, and his skin has become honey-colored, but the whole person is much healthier than before.In the past, she had a weak stomach, but now she may have eaten more coarse tea and light rice, her food intake has increased a lot, and the number of stomach attacks has also decreased.

"Master Fang, come and see, the salt pond blisters." A dark-skinned young boy came to Feng Sheng standing on the pool pond.After hearing this, Feng Sheng didn't care about the shoes getting wet, and followed him to Yanchi.

On the endless flat ground, all are shallow pools made of bricks.This salt field is located in the coastal silt, which was determined by Feng Sheng and Wang Lao after repeated exploration.

Mr. Wang is the old farmer. He not only knows water conservancy, he has been immersed in Lianghuai area for many years, let alone knowing astronomy and geography, but it is no problem to find a suitable place to set up a salt field.

As for this barefoot boy, it is the grandson of a family whose ancestors have been born in the previous generations.His grandfather's surname is Ma. Before Huainan deployed a suitable brine ratio, his grandfather made a great contribution.No, Feng Sheng brought Ma Laohan on this trip, and also brought his grandson Ma Xiaohu.

Feng Sheng followed Ma Xiaohu and walked along the narrow brick road all the way. From afar, he saw several people standing in front of Yanchi.

"Master Fang, look."

In fact, Feng Sheng couldn't see anything, only the water in the salt pond was filled with fine bubbles.

The salt drying method used this time is that Feng Sheng has turned over many ancient books, and added Ma Laohan's brainstorming for many years.Near the seashore, dig deep trenches and build salt ponds to be level with the sea water. While the north wind blows in the deep winter, the tide water will irrigate the ditch. When the salt pond water is full, the ditch is blocked, which is called the cold wave.

The seawater stored in this time has strong brine and can be used as brine.Afterwards, the tide only needs to be drawn into the pool when there is the sun. After a few days in the sun, the tide can be swept into the water with the broom, and the salt will be formed as soon as the sweep is swept.

As he was saying, someone was already in the water, holding a broom made of bamboo sticks and pulling in the salt pond.

I didn't realize it at first, I just felt that I was doing useless work, and gradually white objects piled up.

"Come on salt, come on salt."

Ma Xiaohu shouted happily, everyone smiled, and this smile reached its peak with the amount of salt estimated after the first sweep.

"Senior Fang, if it is old, it is not wrong, before and after this small mansion, it is impossible to make a salt."

"Yi Gang?" Feng Sheng was surprised.

The salt diversion is divided into ten classes according to the area, each class of salt diversion is 200,000 diversions, and each diversion is more than three hundred catties.That is to say, with the salt drying method, the output of the three salt farms in Huaibei in the past one year can be reached for more than a month before and after Guang Xiaoman.

"No mistake?

Ma Laohan smiled: "With so many years of experience of the old man frying salt, the approximate weight can be estimated by visual inspection. It should not be wrong."

"Good!" Feng Sheng gave a high-five and fell into excitement. She walked back and forth on the Chi-Geng, as if thinking about something.After a while, she suddenly stopped and strode away.

Ma Xiaohu wanted to call her and was stopped by grandpa.

"Sir, don't bother him."

Tiangong made beauty. In the following days, the weather has been clear and there are no clouds.

Seeing the salt piled up in the mountains, the higher the accumulation, the more they accumulate.Everyone is excited from the beginning to the difficulty of self-control, and gradually have doubts in their hearts

Why don't adults find someone to ship salt?

After waiting a few more days, the salt transporter finally arrived.

Huang Jinfu followed Feng Sheng all the way, complaining as he walked.When he arrived near Yanchi, the carriage could not walk, and he could only walk. However, Huang Jinfu was fat enough to sit on a person who would never stand, let him go so far, and it would be unbearable for a while.

Feng Sheng didn't care about him, just walking in front.

"What the hell is this? What are you doing me here?"

Soon, Huang Jinfu knew where this was, and he saw Yanshan.

There are few fools who can become big salt merchants. Huang Jinfu soon realized the relationship between these broken ponds and Yanshan, referring to Yanchi and Yanshan.

"This, this is from here?"

Feng Sheng smiled: "Don't care where you came from, do you want this batch of salt?"

Huang Jinfu is still somewhat vigilant: "Going officiating or smuggling? No, Master Fan is still in Yangzhou pestle, wanting to get someone to operate, do you dare to come down and sell private salt?"

"Who tells you that it is private salt, it is naturally an official."

Upon hearing this, Huang Jinfu raised his eyebrows immediately: "I don't want to go to the office, if I want to go to the office, how much salt I can't get, can I run away in this backcountry?"

"You should give some face."

"That doesn't work. It doesn't matter if you don't have a face in your face. It's not that I said, you don't have to take me away. You can't make ends meet this day, don't you know? I just have to fry this oil in the pan and squeeze it. Some oil is out."

Seeing his pitiful appearance, Feng Sheng took a serious look: "Okay, I won't sell Guanzi anymore. Although it is an official, this trip is not the same as usual. You only need to give me the silver that I bought salt. No, it was handed over to Haizhou Branch. I have already requested the bill from Master Fan. You just need to take the bill and ship the salt out."

"Shipping it out? It's easy to say! Master Fang, you are also an old acquaintance. I won't cover up with you. We as salt merchants are rich indeed, but the money in our pockets can never be retained. Take the example of salt. If you just go to invite salt, you have to go through the three steps of asking, presenting, and adding. There are also names for leveling, going, going, and entering the corner. There is no need to mention the ticket, the seal, the Zhudan, etc. Tricks.

"I have to run at least nineteen rooms, and I have to run around a dozen times, and I have to go to the door of a large or small office more than 20 times. I have to go to one place to drop a layer of skin, and to peel it layer by layer. To be honest, If I had not inherited this foundation from the ancestors, and it has been spread for more than a hundred years, do you think I am willing to do this? I can't be a food merchant or a tea merchant? I deal with those grandpas and grandpas?!"

Speaking of these things, Huang Jinfu said with a bitter tears, especially sad.

After Feng Sheng heard it, he also felt very impressed.

After Huang Jinfu finished sighing, she said, "Do you just believe me or not?"

"This--" Huang Jinfu is very skeptical, but thinking of relying on this master, he also made a lot of private salt and made a lot of benefits. How can I say this kind of words.

"I naturally belong to Master Shibuya."

"Then you should pay the silver to get the ticket for the salt. Well, you can give the silver later, and then transport the salt first, let me say that I don't have to toss you on this trip. But first, let me help you save the floating expenses on the road. No, don’t ask me to ask for the price when it is shipped to the place. The salt will not be sold by then. Don’t say I didn’t say hello to you in advance."

Huang Jinfu was puzzled. "Master Fang, you can say something. What does this mean!"

"You haven't guessed all the time, and you're going to take the surgery above, that's it."

"This, just, yes, now? How can I not understand?"

"Soon you will understand."

Huang Jinfu took the salt ticket in horror and left.

The so-called salt ticket is no different from the paper salt guide, but the material is changed, and the text noted above has also changed.There are two kinds of so-called salt extraction, one is copper salt extraction, and the other is salt extraction from the salt transportation department every time salt is transported.

The copper plate salt introduction is Yongyong's hundred years. According to the certificate of the nest, it was published by the court household. Every ten years, there are ten pieces of salt introduction in two places.This lead is in the hands of the top ten salt merchants. Owning this lead has the right to sell and sell salt here. As for the small salt merchants under the big salt merchants, they are all dependent on the existence of this copper plate salt lead.

Cardboard salt guides are salt merchants with shipping and sales qualifications. After purchasing salt guides from the salt transportation department, they will go to the salt farm to extract salt and then transport the purchased salt to the designated area for sale. .

And now Fang Fengsheng has issued salt tickets to him, which also has the above qualifications, but he paid all taxes at one time when Yunsi purchased the tickets, and no need to pay separately.Eliminate all the previous procedures such as flat, up, go, enter and pick up tickets, mustard seals, Zhudan, etc., these procedures can be saved, and you can naturally save yourself from being peeled by layers.

This is nothing. What shocked Huang Jinfu is that the purchase of this new type of salt ticket does not need to have a nest book, no matter whoever is, as long as you pay the silver to the salt transportation company to purchase the salt ticket, you can transport the salt on the ticket. Sell ​​sell.

"You guys are crazy!"

This is the evaluation of Huang Jinfu, Feng Sheng disagrees.

But he couldn't care less about worrying about the ancestral nest books, which might be worthless in the future, because Fang Fengsheng told him that because of his personal relationship, the first batch of pilots came from him.

If it is done well, after the promotion of the new policy, all matters related to the business can be handed over to him for handling.Just for this sentence, Huang Jinfu ran faster than the rabbit. Will it turn into a mansion that the building will fall down and be killed, or will it follow the trend?

Of course, Huang Jinfu didn't care about it either. He didn't care whether this trip would succeed or not, and he didn't lose anything anyway.If it succeeds, he catches the first boat by Dongfeng. If it fails, it is not difficult for him to turn his face and not recognize it.

More importantly, Huang Jinfu knows the status of salt merchants better than outsiders, and he is not alone in supporting him.In recent years, the number of salt merchants who depended on them has diminished. This is a sign of the collapse of the Lianghuai salt administration.

Either the imperial court sat on the sidelines, let the private salt rampant, and the imperial court could not collect the salt tax, or smashed the stall completely and was reborn.

Not to mention this, because of the official document issued by the Haizhou branch, the batch of salt from Huangjinfu was successfully shipped out of Haizhou.During the course of many levels, there were some troubles, but there were big seals of Haizhou Branch on the salt ticket, big seals of Lianghuai Salt Transport Division, Zou Yun's personal seal, and Fan Jinchuan's official seal, plus There are people in the government office of the Haizhou branch who accompany you along the way, and they cannot be refuted.

These batches of salt finally entered the canal and went to the shore. At the same time, the trial of Huaibei as a new policy for salt administration also spread.

This news first broke out in the largest dental shop in Yangzhou, where there is always a place where there is a business. The dental shop manages the intermediary, which plays a role in evaluating prices and trading, and even expands to agency sales, storage, and payment. The role of payment, collection of business tax, etc.

The establishment of dental shops must be reviewed by the government and issued with dental cards, also known as official teeth.Yangzhou salt merchants are lavish and the local economy is prosperous, which also makes dental shops extremely popular.

But this time the news broke out, not just one dental practice, but hundreds of dental activities in Yangzhou City were talking about it.At first, it was just a greet by a dental person and a closer merchant, and somehow the news spread.

It is said that Huaibei has set up a pilot for the New Deal. Anyone with a strong family background can go to the Haizhou Branch to buy salt tickets and sell and sell table salt.

It is said that in order to encourage merchants, the Huaibei New Deal increased the price of a diversion salt from 350 kg to 400 kg, and the price remained unchanged on the original basis.

Not to mention some other bits and pieces in the New Deal, these two are enough to surprise people. Shipping salt does not require salt lead, only need to have silver to get a salt ticket to obtain shipping qualification?

Wealthy businessmen are more than just salt merchants. People outside the door look at the people in the door, so many people want to enter the salt business.However, there is no way to introduce a nest, and it is okay to rent a nest from a nest merchant and regret it.

So these news broke out, one can imagine what a sensation would be.
