Zhang Zhong didn't understand what his son's intention was, but he still arranged it.
Zhang Xiaobao didn't care about this anymore. He knew that the reason why Zhang Yi didn't come to apologize was because he still had a bargaining chip, thinking about waiting for a chance to exchange terms.
If it were replaced by someone else, Zhang Yi might have been found long ago, but Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan were not others. They didn't put their minds on Zhang Yi at all, and they just took action.
Solving the most critical problem is the most important thing, that is, people’s livelihood. The cargo on the ship should have been unloaded and shipped here. The government office must issue a notice to let the people know that these cargo can be obtained first, and then later. Pay, and if you don’t have money, use something from the sea instead.
Especially for those good things that can be paid tribute, don't worry about this. Take your time. You don't have to take risks in order to repay them quickly. The Zhang family doesn't need it, and the Zhang family can afford to pay for the goods.
The third notice followed. After seeing it, the people couldn't believe it was true, but when those goods were shipped and let them choose, they had to admit that it was not a dream.
All buyers don’t need any mortgage, just press a handprint. Zhang Xiaobao believes in the folk customs here, and the notice clearly says that the payment for these items can be paid within one year. If you encounter special circumstances, it’s okay. We will postpone it later, but we need to send someone to check it.
If there is nothing, and if it is not given after a year, then the name of the person will be written in the notice to make people beware of such a person.
They are all from the village folks, if their names are posted, then there is no need to raise their heads in the future.
The goods prepared this time are very complete. There are furs, snacks, medicines, cloths, cheap jewelry, and some tools that can be made with handicrafts. As for the purely ornamental ones, forget it. The people don’t. That awakened to buy.
Every time the goods go to a place, the people choose one after another. In fact, they are short of a buffer time, so that they have to sell the things in their hands at low prices under the pressure of life. Now these goods are not expensive. Valuation of their future goods is also high.
In addition to these, the people Li Xun arranged to use other identities to lend money, the profit is very low, usually nine out of 13 returns, that is to borrow ten cents, give you nine cents, then you have to pay back. Li Xun used the 13 pennies to return from ten to eleven, with only 10% of the profit, and it was calculated annually, not monthly.
At this time, it was too low. Some people in their homes who had some ideas tried to borrow some. This needed to be collateralized. After writing out the papers, they could not report to the yamen.
The main reason is that Zhang Xiaobao has calculated. There are more than 7,000 people in the entire state. Everyone borrows money. One person borrows a consistent amount of money to be of great use. If you borrow three consistent amounts of money, you can buy a small boat and go to the sea. The average is two, and it is nothing more than 15,000 to stop.
And what do you want to say when you borrow? You don’t have to ask for a doctor. The doctor has a ready-made one and is looking for a place to build a medical center. As long as the medicinal materials are not ginseng or deer antler, the usual medicine is very cheap, and the cost is paid.
In this way, you will not be afraid of people who run away under the guise of money. If you say you want to buy land for cattle, then you have to look at how much land you have. Buying cattle is probably seven or ten, and both land and cattle become Mortgage items.
Wang Juan also asked Zhang Xiaobao specifically, if someone wants to buy a larger boat, it takes 15 rams, and the boat capsizes, then what should be done? Zhang Xiaobao's reply is very simple, as long as the person is okay, it is not true. Of lending, who would deliberately overturn the ship
When the time comes for someone with such a bad idea, give him a job, repay his debt with work, arrange a good job, and repay part of the debt after earning money, and keep part of the debt in life. It can't be a punitive measure. , That will make people feel that there is a chance to drill.
In order to better promote the benevolence and righteousness of the new governor, all the goods were shipped to Fucheng for sale, and people were sent to the other three counties to talk about this, and asked them to come over and buy them. In this way, the local people would tell elsewhere. How about the new governor's history of the people.
"The next step is to dry salt. There must be a lot of behind-the-scenes transactions, and people can implement it after cleaning up. The sale of this kind of salt was originally controlled by the local government, that is, the state. Lee, it turned out to be boiled salt. One stone of salt needs more than four hundred catties of good firewood.
No matter how expensive firewood is, it is not as expensive as salt. One stone of salt can be bought for six to seven hundred yuan, and how much can four hundred catties of firewood be worth? Five texts? Six texts? There are so many mountains, and you can hit a lot of firewood if you go up the mountain, and the profit is nearly a hundred times. I can't blame someone for taking the risk. "
Sitting on the couch in the inn, Zhang Xiaobao looked at the crowd going out the window to the place where the goods were sold, and began to figure out the rest.
When Wang Juan came, he knew that Zhang Xiaobao was going to dry the salt. There was very little labor, and the salt production was high and fast. There was no need to waste firewood. By then, the cost would be lower. If it is transported by large ships, one ship can hold five or six tons. , Take the return route and transport it to a place where there is little or no salt. If you sell it, you can earn five or six hundred guan, or even more, if you are willing to be the same as the local price, it is easy to earn a thousand guan.
Thinking of the fact that if a large amount of salt is sold in the future, the salt in other places will not sell well, Wang Juan asked Zhang Xiaobao: "You will not be afraid that a large amount of salt will hit the market then?"
"I'm afraid, but we can't produce so much salt here. It can't be salted in the sun for a few minutes. The time of production affects the production. There are also salt fields. You can do everything you don't need to be right next to the sea. For the use of salt fields, unless a lot of manpower is used to level the ground, it depends on how the wind blows.
The knowledge in this is great. I don’t understand it too much. I’ve tried it a few times and I’ve known it, and I can use whichever fits. People nowadays are still in a salt-deficient situation. It’s not as industrialized as we were at that time. Salt making is also convenient for transportation. "
Zhang Xiaobao has considered this matter for a long time, and it is not a problem at all. Even if he turns the coastal areas into salt pans, he cannot meet the demand. Besides, selling salt is really not too profitable for him. The boat runs back and forth. , It will take half a year at the fastest. Isn’t it good to ship something else
Thinking of making money, Zhang Xiaobao suggested to Wang Juan, “It’s better to cultivate pearls. This thing makes money, can be used as medicine and can be used as decorations. It is to put some insoluble shells into their flesh, and then let them make a little bit of it. Wrap it with body fluids, and finally the pearl will come out."
"Dreaming, you tell me what kind of shells to use? What to put in? How to put it? Where and how to raise it? What are the relevant things to pay attention to? How many years can I grow pearls?"
When Wang Juan heard what Zhang Xiaobao said, he knew he wouldn’t. He talked nonsense to himself and asked several questions continuously. Every time he asked Zhang Xiaobao, he shook his head. He wanted to put sand in the shell, but think of a pearl. Wrapped in sand doesn't seem very good.
"Then let's kill a lot of sharks and sell shark fins. This thing is good." Zhang Xiaobao changed the subject.
"Who do you want to kill? How? Give it to the sharks to kill? Can you think of something that can be implemented?" Wang Juan retorted Zhang Xiaobao mercilessly.
"Then change it. You said let's get some ducks and stock them by the sea..." Zhang Xiaobao really changed another one.
Two people in the room proposed a veto one by one, and there was a long discussion.
…
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan can quarrel freely, but others can't.
Zhang Yi had been waiting for a day, but he still didn't wait for the call. Anxiously, he walked back and forth where the businessman surnamed Shen was.
Not only was he anxious, but the businessman surnamed Shen was also anxious. He used to encounter things that were too small to calculate with each other, and the calculations were relatively accurate. This time, he thought it was a sure thing, but he was wrong.
I thought that Zhang Zhong wanted to deal with the original forces here first, and he should do the same when he was replaced by others, but Zhang Zhong seemed to put this matter down and concentrate on doing business. It was still the kind of business that looked like it could not maximize the benefits. .
"Shen Dongjia, what do you say Zhang Zhong is going to do? Obviously he has the upper hand, but it has died down. I always feel that things are not easy. If you wait any longer, things will easily happen."
Zhang Yi walked a few more times, unable to suppress the irritability in his heart, stopped and asked.
"No hurry, no hurry, Zhang Zhong must have some difficulty, he didn't dare to look for you directly, could it be that he thought of how I have contact with you, and thus guessed the forces behind me? Afraid? Wait, wait for tomorrow. If we don't find you yet, let's think of a way."
Shen Dongjia didn’t even believe him when he said these words. Zhang Zhong came so fast and he didn’t do it slowly. He couldn’t guess himself and the forces behind him. At this moment, there seemed to be no better way other than waiting. .
The two did not wait until this time the next day. That night, seventy-one tortured yamen returned, and some of them were still there when they walked and said, "I don’t dare to do bad things for Zhang Yi anymore." , I will never dare to listen to Master Sir Shi's words in the future..."
Zhang Xiaobao's method caused the yamen who had never encountered him to almost have a nervous breakdown. As long as he thought of what happened last night, he would get cold all over.
When Zhang Yi and Shen Dong saw seventy-one people, their eyes were different from before.
"What's wrong with you? Did they use the big punishment?" Zhang Yi asked when he came to the front of a servant.
"It's more powerful than the big punishment. I've seen it, sir, the other thirty-one brothers will be decapitated tomorrow, don't you save them?"
When the questioned yaman spoke, he looked straight ahead, and the tone of his words was so plain that it made people listen very awkward.
"Zhang Zhong dares, I will find someone to come and see with him tomorrow to see who he dares to kill?" Zhang Yi roared.
