Chapter 83 Means

Sun Shoulian confirmed that there was no problem, but he still kept it and did not buy the salt himself.

He had stayed in the capital for many years, especially the military attaches in the Fourth Guard Battalion who often came into contact with the eunuchs in the palace. He had seen too many intrigues and intrigues, and had a backup plan.

Sun Shoulian took Lu Yangguo out and explained in a low voice: "I have been short of money recently. All the money at home has been used to buy water to irrigate the fields. I don't have much money in hand. Can you lend me some money first?"

After the salt sale is completed, there will be

This is a stable source of money. I will not only introduce you to the prince, but also bring the prince over, and then call a few eunuchs in the palace to do a big salt business together. By then, you will not be making money.

, the connections in the palace are enough for you."

Sun Shoulian was worried that he would not agree, so he finally added: "With the care of the prince and the eunuchs who are in charge of you, your unscrupulous father will rush to take over the doves and magpie's nest women at home."

Divorce her, and use an eight-carriage sedan chair to bring your mother back home and take her seat as the royal wife."

Lu Yangguan, who had been in charge of the prostitutes and gambling houses in Caochangyuan for many years, instantly understood what Sun Shoulian meant. He cursed secretly for being cunning, but still put on a flattered look on his face: "This is how it will be done, in the hands of my nephew."

There just happened to be a batch of silver, enough to buy ten salt quotations to prove whether this way of making money is feasible."

One salt citation can be exchanged for 300 kilograms of official salt, and ten salt citations are equivalent to 3,000 kilograms of official salt.

Sun Shoulian was satisfied, stretched out his hand and patted Lu Yangguo on the shoulder: "I feel relieved about the connection with the Wang Highway. As long as this transaction can be completed, Wang Gonggong will take the initiative if we mention it a little bit."

We agreed to sell salt together."

The world-famous Shanxi merchants and Huizhou merchants all made their fortunes from selling salt. The profits from salt sales are recognized by officials and common people as the most profitable business.

After Sun Shoulian and Lu Yangguan finished their discussion, they walked back to the house again, but this time only one person spoke.

Sun Shoulian stood aside without saying a word, just watching Lu Yangguan and Lao Huihui talking, without a word coming out of his mouth.

Lu Yangguan gave an affirmative reply: "This business is done, but I don't know if you have enough salt coins in your hand. This time I want to buy ten salt coins."

If ten pieces of salt were converted into official salt, it would be a full three thousand kilograms, which is quite a lot.

Lao Huihui deliberately made an embarrassed look, pondered for a moment, and then glanced at Sun Shoulian next to him. It seemed that the senior official next to him asked him to make a decision: "Okay! After the little old man returns, he will work with the Changlu Salt Transport Envoy

The chief reminder of the Yamen”

Before Lao Huihui finished his sentence, he quickly shut his mouth. It seemed that he had leaked something, and it involved officials from the Changlu Salt Transport Yamen.

Sun Shoulian and Lu Yangguan were all relieved when they heard that the official name was always urged. It seemed that the officials of the salt transport yamen colluded with the kitchen households to make profits privately.

This is reasonable, let alone an old Huihui. Everyone in the Yanyun Envoy's Yamen is seeking their own selfish interests around Yanyin.

Lao Huihui's behavior is not only understandable, but also normal behavior.

Some salt movement caused officials in the yamen to become corrupt, which was much more serious than the officials behind Lao Huihui. They blatantly published a large number of salt quotations and sold them to merchants.

Lao Huihui's behavior of selling salt in private has become relatively restrained and cautious.

When Sun Shoulian heard Lao Huihui's answer, he was satisfied and immediately turned around and left the dilapidated house.

Everything here made him feel very uncomfortable, and he didn't know whether it was because of the dilapidated atmosphere in the courtyard or the bad luck of the despicable people.

Fortunately, he came here today and found a new way to make money, and he got into the salt business that he had dreamed of in the past.

As long as he can master this way of making money, his relationship with the prince and his father-in-law will become closer in the future, and it will not be a problem to find him a godfather.

As soon as Sun Shoulian thought about secretly recognizing Wang Gonggong as his godfather, he couldn't help but burst into laughter, and the sound of laughter suddenly came out.

Lu Yangguo followed beside him, feeling strange, but then thought that it might be because he had mastered the way of making money from selling salt, and a normal official would smile with satisfaction.

Lu Yangguan didn't think much about it and just smiled as if it were normal, thinking that Sun Shoulian was satisfied with today's events.

As long as he is satisfied, Lu Yangguan will feel at peace and it seems that he can establish a relationship with Wang Gonggong.

After Sun Shoulian, Lu Yangguan and others all returned, Lao Huihui took the finalized warehouse receipt and walked into the main room to find Li Mian and Sun Chuanting.

Sun Chuanting had already figured out Lao Huihui's method, which was to replace the real salt with fake salt. In this way, the official salt would become a private salt trade.

With this handle in hand, he can completely control Lu Yangguan, and at the critical moment, he can even let him confiscate his house and exterminate his clan.

Selling illicit salt is forbidden by the imperial court and no one can touch it. Anyone who dares to sell illicit salt will only have one end.

Confiscating the family and exterminating the clan.

Sun Chuanting took the stack sheet, looked at it carefully, and confirmed that Lu Yangguan's name was written on it. He couldn't help but laugh: "No wonder Jin Guan invited an old man to deal with the last Lu Yangguan. It turned out that he had a clever plan of his own."

.”

Li Mian came back and the two of them smiled when they heard that he had changed from an old man to an old man. It seemed that the trick just now had achieved the effect.

Only then did Sun Chuanting say "old man" willingly, he was no longer the old man just now.

Sun Chuanting returned the stack list to Lao Huihui and sighed: "Li Dingguo's bravery, He Jin's fire hoarding, and Lao Huihui's coordination. The three of them used three completely different methods to rob Caochangyuan.

Sixty percent are prostitutes and gambling houses, Jin Guan’s vision is really ruthless and admirable.”

It's not just as simple as having a vicious vision. As long as you control 60% of the prostitutes and gambling houses in Caochangyuan, you have the lifeblood of Wan An, Lu Guangzu and others, and you can use some coercive measures.

Caochangyuan involves the silver profits of many yamen. As long as these silver profits cannot be handed over in time, officials such as Wan An and Lu Guangzu will be ineffective.

Failure to submit it in time is enough to cause serious consequences.

If all are not handed over, it will have unacceptable consequences for officials such as Wan An and Lu Guangzu.

This is also the real reason why Li Mian wants to take control of the Caochangyuan Prostitutes and Gambling House. Now that the goal has been achieved, the next step is to take further steps.

The result Li Mian wanted was not just as simple as tormenting Wan An, Lu Guangzu and others.

He stopped staying in Lao Huihui's yard to avoid being bumped into by acquaintances and causing unnecessary trouble.

Li Mian looked at Sun Chuanting who was standing aside, nodded, and the two of them went back together.
