At the beginning of hearing these news, everyone thought it was a joke.

Does shipping salt need to be introduced?What do you want them to do?But gradually some people couldn't laugh, because someone really went to Haizhou without believing.

It was a cotton merchant. Last year's cotton harvest failed, which made him useless for a year.He didn’t have enough capital, and he always looked at the sky to eat, which made him full of anxiety. He wanted to see if he could find a way in the dental practice.

Holding it was the thought of collecting cotton. When everyone else was just talking, he went to Haizhou, and he didn't bring too much silver. Who knows how to get a batch of salt.

Now that the batch of salt is on the canal outside the city, this person is a cotton merchant. He has never made salt before, and still follows the idea of ​​making cotton before-when a batch of goods cannot be eaten by himself, he will find someone to divide it.

So he came to the dental clinic where he heard the news. He often haunted here. He knew a lot of people inside. Some small businessmen who had a chance in the dental clinic asked where he had gone. Why didn't he see it for a while.He said that he got a batch of salt and wanted to find someone to eat or a partnership, which surprised everyone.

Yaxing is in charge of the sale of goods, so there are many small businessmen who squat here, because maybe when a batch of goods will come out, they can make a big profit.So the news spread quickly, but it was just a tea time, and some small businessmen received the news.

Everyone didn't believe that he could get the salt, and asked the cotton merchant to show things to others. The cotton merchant named Meng took everyone, and had two official teeth, and went to the pier outside the city.

On board the ship, he entered the warehouse, and there were many bag-shaped items stacked inside.

From the appearance, it is a light brown paper bag with a large salt word printed on it, with the words of Haizhou Branch, as well as the name and seal of the salt production site.

This kind of salt bag has never been seen. It should be noted that the salt is transported from the salt field. When it passes through the monitoring station, it will be converted from a large bag to a small bag. No matter how it is changed, it is a cloth bag, and I have not seen a paper bag.

Someone reached out and touched it, it was a brown paper bag.

"This is salt?"

"Isn't it sand? The fairy jumps, and these of us are not unseen." Some people said.

The Meng businessman was a little annoyed and stepped forward to pull out a bag of salt.He ripped it a few times with his bare hands, but the man next to him handed him a pair of scissors to open the salt bag smoothly.

Exposing the contents inside, it was white salt.

Hey!This opened your eyes to everyone. Is it true that you can get salt?!

"This salt bag was just launched by the Haiyan Government Office of Salt Affairs. With this salt package, all the cards along the road are not allowed to be unpacked. I paid for it from the Salt Office and I shipped it along the way. Without further ado, does anyone want this batch of salt? If it is not a few diversions that allow shipping, I have no way out, and I will not let this thing go outside."

"This--" The small businessmen looked at each other.

At this time, a shout came back: "I want something, I want it all!"

Hey, who is this so loud?

Everyone turned their heads to see, but it was a small businessman of Liu Jinya.

This person has this nickname because of two gold teeth embedded in it. He is notoriously cunning in dental practice, commonly known as unprofitable and not too early.But this person is also really able to do business, bold and attentive and dare to fight, keen eyes, he does not do a specific line of things, what to do with silver, life is much more moisturizing than this bitter little businessman.

"Liu Jinya, don't blow the air."

"Don't send it out, I want the goods. Let's go, let's not talk nonsense with this group of light-mouthed people. Are you talking about smuggling or going through dental activities?" In front of him, the two fangs standing on the edge ignored his face because of his phrase "smuggling and selling".

In fact, if Liu Jinya and they really traded in smuggling, the two fangs really couldn't get them, because the Meng merchants didn't go to the dental shop to sell their goods, and they couldn't get a commission.

The Meng businessman hesitated: "Let's go for it."

Although you need to hire a servant for the dental shop, you can be assured of the business they have done.

After hearing this, the two teethers immediately smiled, and attentively walked up to remind the two of them if they had to go through the dental procedures, what procedures need to be done.

This procedure is not easy to handle. At least the dental practice is not in vain. They helped to inspect the goods first, and then asked the Meng merchants to issue documents such as salt tickets and passports to prove that the salt was coming in the right way.Then I found Liu Jinya and received the payment. Because the goods were not easy to inspect, the dental firm came out and stamped the salt package on the salt bag, and deducted half of the payment. If Liu Jinya did not come to the dental firm to respond to the goods within three months. If there is a problem, the Meng merchants can withdraw this payment.

Everyone rejoices!

When the silver finally arrived in his own hands, even if only half, it was more than the capital he invested.The cotton merchant named Meng finally breathed a sigh of relief, but he couldn't take a break and rushed to Haizhou with a silver ticket.

This is a taste of sweetness!

For a time, the small merchants who witnessed all the transactions on the same day all went to Haizhou.Some other businessmen who received the news also came one after another.

"Old Zhangtou, forget it, where is the salt so easy to get."

On the street diagonally opposite the Yamen of the Haizhou Branch, there were two people, one old and one young.

The old one is this old head, but he is not old either, but he is in his forties and his twenties.Both are short brown, with a big knife around their waist, and look at the shabby appearance of their dust and frost clothes, which seems to be the person in the dart board.

"The officials are not so publicized, as long as there is silver, they can come here to buy salt tickets, as long as the shipping port meets the regulations of the court."

"You listen to those officials, who also said that the day is clear, do you believe it?"

The old Zhangtou hesitated, and somehow gritted his teeth again: "Regardless of whether it is clear this day, I haven't asked how I didn't know it? The place we went to just happened to be in line with the port. Ten catties or one hundred catties, always earn a little."

The young man sighed, and did not stop it, but entered the Yamen together with the old Zhangtou.

He actually knows why the old Zhangtou fights so hard. He has a sick wife at home, and the money for soup and medicine for many years has caused a high debt.The hard work of darts, in fact, can't make any money, so usually the dartsmen will carry some goods and sell them everywhere. They all know that the oil in the salt is heavy, but no one dares to touch the private salt. End.

So when the old Zhangtou heard that Yamen put salt tickets outside and allowed personal distribution, this was not a temptation.

The two entered the Yamen.

In fact, for a plain-headed people, they are unwilling to enter the Yamen, there is no saying, the Yamen entrance is facing south, and there is no reason to enter.In the hearts of the people, entering the Yamen is a big event, especially the Yamen is not too close to the people.

The threshold is half a meter high, and the building is tall and deep.If you go in and no one leads the way, it is even more daunting, for fear of going the wrong way and getting reprimanded.

Unexpectedly, they went in this trip, just after the wall, I saw a hall on the incline is particularly lively.

This lively nature is to compare with other places, there are many people standing outside the door, do not know what they are doing.

The old Zhangtou and the two asked in the past, only to realize that these people had heard of the New Deal and came over specifically to ask what happened.Most of these people are similar to the old Zhangtou, because they usually go south or north, or they are merchants, cloth merchants, and tea merchants.Because they are all small businessmen, they want to be able to bring some sales along the way, and if they can, they can add a way to make money.

"Mo Pan, you are standing behind. I stood here and watched it for a while. I am afraid that this will be successful. The people I see are all smiling, and if there are ten people, they are led to the salt field. There is a place to do things," said a man in front of Lao Zhangtou.

After listening to this, Lao Zhangtou was relieved in his heart, standing in line behind him, while waiting for his turn, while not forgetting to observe what kind of regulations are being handled in the hall.

...

At the corner of the hall, there were two people standing, it was Fang Fengsheng and Zou Yunjuan.

Because Zou Yun judged that he did not wear an official robe, the people in the line also paid attention to the old man, but instead looked at Feng Sheng from time to time, lamenting the masculinity.

"Uncle Zou, I observed it outside the door today. There are still a few who dare to enter the Yamen. Most of them watched for one or two outside and then left. It is better to have a shed outside the door, which specializes in issuing salt tickets for verification, etc. For business, I don’t think the shed is enough. In the future, I may not know what the scene is. It’s better to set up a shed and build a house on the side."

"You have a good idea."

"Then let's split up? At the three saltworks, you should also beat one or two. I will let the following people do the building of the house."

"That line."
