Huo Chong didn't expect that he had originally thought of staying in Jinan City for two or three days before leaving, but he didn't expect that Hong Shengzhai's boss Zhang forced him to stay for five days. Several merchants in Jinan City were very interested in Huo Chong's candies, and it was enough to discuss business with these people. Boss Zhang even asked Huo Chong to stay for two more days. Some foreign merchants would probably come here, and they were more interested in Huo Chong's candies.

Not to mention, Huo Chong stayed for two days. When the foreign merchants with a Shanxi accent arrived here, Huo Chong was a little shocked. Shanxi merchants could travel from the capital to Shanxi through the eight passes of Taihang. It was not uncommon for Shanxi people to come to Beijing.

But Huo Chong's candies were sold to Shanxi, which was extraordinary. I don't know what price these Shanxi merchants had to sell them to Shanxi to take care of the book.

Unlike the merchants of this era, Huo Chong did not like to pretend to be mysterious. So as he chatted, Huo Chong directly asked the merchants with a Shanxi accent where they wanted to sell candy. The Shanxi merchants looked bad immediately, and the young ones asked Huo Chong unhappily what they meant.

Huo Chong explained his considerations about transportation costs. When the other party understood, Huo Chong calmly expressed his curiosity. The local pasta in Shanxi is very good. No matter how good Huo Chong's candies are and very expensive, they are afraid that there will be no good sales in the local area.

After hearing Huo Chong's words, the young Shanxi merchants looked even more unhappy. However, the older Shanxi merchants could calm down. He asked, "Master Huo, do you look down on us?"

"It's not that I look down on you. I'm timid and think that if you can't make money, I don't think I'm going to have a good idea. Since that's the case, it's better to just say it out. I think it's better to make money in business."

The Shanxi businessman was stunned. After a moment, the older Shanxi businessman suddenly smiled, "Mr. Huo is really... a real person. He is still thinking about them. But thank you for your hard work."

Huo Chong was criticized like this, so he could only laugh a few times. He lost confidence in these Shanxi merchants.

Boss Zhang, Hong Shengzhai, quickly smoothed out the situation, "Mr. Huo is also kind..."

"Shopkeeper Zhang, I just have never seen Mr. Huo speak like this, and I was just scared for a moment. Master Huo can say this, but he has no bad intentions." Shanxi merchant comforted Boss Zhang, and after saying that, he turned to Huo Chong, "Mr. Huo, I just sold this candy to the capital. Mr. Huo is here, and I want to ask if this candy is so sour, will it hurt people?"

Huo Chong looked at Boss Zhang and recalled the same question from Boss Zhang. What kind of amazing people did these people sell to, so cautiously. However, Huo Chong cared about his life very much and replied decisively: "Eat too much anything and you will get something wrong. Eat one pill a day or two, and you won't get anything wrong. Even if you have bad stomachs, it's fine if you don't eat it. But I don't know why the brothers asked this?"

The Shanxi merchants looked at each other for a moment, and it seemed that they were also considering whether they should tell the truth. Finally, the oldest person said, "I don't hide it from Mr. Huo. Some people in the palace like to eat Mr. Huo's sour candy. I bought some. I heard some of the imperial physicians say something unpleasant. It is said that Mr. Huo's candy is too cold and it is not good to eat too much."

Huo Chong then understood what was going on. In theory, this kind of sweet candy with sweetness does meet the taste of many people, but if it is too sour, it will increase the concentration of stomach acid, which may cause some discomfort. Since these people said this, Huo Chong replied: "If you are worried, wouldn't it be better if you don't sell it to the palace?"

The merchants were silent for a moment and finally sighed: "We must buy it in the palace, and we can't say there is no one. To be honest, we are thirsty when we walk far away, and we will also hold a piece of Master Huo's sour candy, which can quench thirst and produce salivation. We are just afraid that something will happen. If something happens, we can't afford it."

Huo Chong had considered this possibility for a long time, and suddenly felt that modern life was really good. If it was modern life, there were regulations on the content of various ingredients of candy. If something happened, a testing department would be responsible for testing. However, there was no such "authoritative organization" in this era. As long as something happened in the palace, you could make excuses everywhere. It was really extremely difficult to deal with.

A group of businessmen, including Huo Chong, were unable to reach any results in the end. Everyone knew that they were just small businessmen. If they were really powerful, who would do business? Since there was no result, everyone could only choose to continue doing business.

The merchants who sold candy to the capital bargained with Huo Chong. After some game, the group proposed the purchase volume. Even Huo Chong was shocked by the total amount of 50,000 jin.

In fact, 50,000 jin is not much. In this era, the population of Beijing was at least a few hundred thousand, and the migrant population should be about one million. Even if a person only buys half a jin, it is 500,000 jin. Candy is not something that can withstand long-term storage. At the price proposed by Huo Chong, the annual consumption of 100,000 jin in Beijing is not very rare.

However, in this era, 50,000 kilograms of candies a year, and the sales are also calculated in a thousand taels of silver. Huo Chong is equivalent to having another source of wealth. Can such sales really have good results? Huo Chong is even more unconfident.

But the money was not unavailable. Huo Chong decisively reached an agreement with these merchants. He got these things done. Huo Chong returned to the headquarters of Zichuan County. As soon as he arranged the production task, there was news from Mouping County. He encountered harassment there again. Some people began to sabotage and even attacked Huo Chong's employees.

The person in charge of Mouping County has reported to the official, hoping to take preemptive measures and use some initiatives in future conflicts. The local person in charge puts greater strength in investigating who is taking action. The main target is undoubtedly Li Daoqiong, the King of Sea Dragon in Mouping County.

Although he did not directly tell the decision to kill Li Daoqiong, the person in charge there was also a very intense mood. He asked Huo Chong to send skilled personnel to Mouping County to "solve the problem".

Huo Chong actually had the intention to deal with the Dragon King Li Daoqiong. But he was a white figure after all. If he took action more ruthless than the underworld, it would be bad if he was caught. More importantly, Huo Chong himself had not had time to establish a powerful department.

For so long, the platform has paid great attention to choosing people. The young people who defected to Huo Chong were not bad children, but good families with good backgrounds. If these people were to kill, there must be a reason to do so.

If Li Daoqiong was caught by Huo Chong's subordinates, beaten up, and forced him to swear that he would never attack Huo Chong again, it would be inevitable. However, Huo Chong's subordinates should not kill people. They were so angry that they shouted that killing was one thing, and it was also possible to kill people impulsively. However, Huo Chong's subordinates do not have the kind of person who regards killing as a means.

When Huo Chong was considering establishing such a force, he was also a little nervous. Such a person was a beast, and once he was cultivated, he might not be backfired.

Finally, Huo Chong sent a message to Mouping County and continued to use righteous means to capture the troublemakers. Huo Chong is solving the future.
