Chapter 525 Barter

"How big is this pool?" Lin Nanzheng asked curiously.

"The pool ridges are generally about half a foot high, and are built into square pools. The area of ​​each square pool is five steps from top to bottom. The beach pools are dug one by one from top to bottom, and the drop is generally three inches. Between the upper and lower pools

There is a pool door to allow water to flow downward." Hong Lianshuo continued to draw on the beach, "There is a platform under the bottom pool, which can be called a salt lump, for storing salt. Two or three large trenches are dug around the beach pool.

, commonly known as salt ditch, is used to receive tides and store water. On the seaward side of the ditch, a water gate is opened and a gate is set up to prepare for opening and closing. A tidal ditch is opened outside it, leading directly to the sea, to guide tides into the ditch and prepare the salt ditch.

Used for receiving tide.”

"Then let's start building! If it is completed as soon as possible, the salt will be produced as soon as possible." Lin Nanzheng rubbed his hands excitedly after hearing this, "It won't be a busy day."

"It's not just tight, it's simply empty." Han Qinhu said, touching his waist.

"Hey! Do you have any money?" Hong Lianshuo looked at them angrily and said.

"As you said, money is a person's courage." Lin Nanzheng said cleverly, "You have a lot of money!"

"I think this salt is just around the corner, but the key is how do we sell it?" Han Qinhu frowned and looked at them and said, "Transportation is also a headache."

"Bandits are indispensable when traveling by land these days!" Lin Nanzheng said, stroking his forehead, "Those are the masters of murder and robbery."

"It's not easy. We won't be able to kill them all." Chen Zhongyuan said with clattering fists, "Those others will be frightened after hearing the news. We are not afraid. We are just sharpening my sword."

"There is still water transportation available." Hong Lianshuo drew another picture on the beach, "From here, go north along the coastline to Liaodong."

"It will be much more stable if we use water transport." Lin Nanzheng said while looking at the map outlined on the ground.

"Is it such a smooth wind?" Chen Zhongyuan asked with concern, "Manpower needs to be slower."

"The southeast wind in summer is just the right wind, saving time and effort." Hong Lianshuo said, drawing the wind direction.

"That's just right. When we went there, the ship was loaded with cargo. It was heavy! When we came back, the ship was light..." Chen Zhongyuan said cheerfully.



"Not necessarily. You may also buy specialties from Liaodong when you come back." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with bright eyes and said.

"What is rich in Liaodong?" Chen Zhongyuan looked at them with bright eyes and asked.

"Mink fur, deer antler, ginseng." Lin Nanzheng said without thinking.

"Do we need this?" Chen Zhongyuan asked as his eyes fell on Hong Lianshuo.

"Need! We need everything now." Hong Lianshuo nodded and said, "The Northeast is a treasure land!"

"It's just too cold, even colder than here." Lin Nanzheng shuddered and said.

"Just wear thicker clothes." Hong Lianshuo said simply and easily.

"Those paper quilts and paper clothes are not good." Han Qinhu said immediately after hearing this, "It can be said that we were barely able to make do last year."

"To keep warm, you should wear a sheepskin jacket." Hong Lianshuo looked at him with bright black eyes and asked, "Are there many sheep herders in Liaodong?"

"Liaodong Yi Dido are still herding horses and shepherding sheep in the past, although they are also actively Sinicizing." Han Qinhu thought about it seriously and said after hearing this.

"Then let's buy more sheep." Hong Lianshuo said excitedly, clapping his hands.

"Wait a minute, and you will be sure that this salt can be sold." Lin Nanzheng looked directly at her and said.

"Definitely. Liaodong doesn't produce salt, so they have to buy it from the Central Plains." Han Qinhu heard that the brown Tong Ren looked at them with a smile and said, "If our salt can always maintain such a high level, the price will be high."

If there are advantages, it would be strange if they don’t buy it!”

"How can you be sure that the price is cheap?" Chen Zhongyuan wrinkled his features and looked at him and said, this is too arbitrary!

Han Qinhu looked at him dumbfounded when he heard this and said, "Liaodong is here, the Central Plains is here, and we are here. In terms of price, at least how much less will it cost in transportation!"

"Oh!" Chen Zhongyuan scratched his head and said, "I don't know much about this aspect."

Han Qinhu rubbed his chin and thought seriously, "If this is a salt trade in Liaodong, he can't get past the governor of Liaodong."

"Salt and iron are all government-run. If you run it privately, you will be prosecuted." Lin Nanzheng frowned and said uneasily, "We are not familiar with Liaodong!"

"This relationship is all about progress, the unfamiliar becomes mature!" Hong Lianshuo looked at them firmly and said.

"That's right!" Chen Zhongyuan said immediately after hearing this, "It's not the Zhuge family, so we can pledge it to three parties." He snorted softly and said, "The goods are good, why don't you worry about selling them!"

"I'm not worried about the market reaction, I'm worried about the official reaction." Hong Lianshuo frowned and looked at them and said.

"Salt is a huge profit, and everyone is jealous. It only depends on what crime they want to charge you with," Hong Lianshuo said with great worry.

"In this case, we have to give up some benefits." Han Qinhu thought seriously for a moment and said.

"Anything that can be solved with money is not a problem." Hong Lianshuo pointed his index finger and said, "The salt we sell is free of charge."

"What do you want without money? How can you not want money?" Lin Nanzheng looked at her anxiously and said.

"What do you want the money for? Where can you use it?" Hong Lianshuo looked directly at him and asked.

"Uh..." Lin Nanzheng scratched his head and said, "It seems it can only be used locally."

"That's right!" Hong Lianshuo looked at them with his gentle, jade-like eyes and said, "For us, copper coins can only be used to make weapons. What can silver be used for? It has no use except to pile up in the treasury." His deep black eyes flashed with tiny details.

Guang said, "Exchanging goods is more practical. Gold and silver are the attributes that people give to money, otherwise they are just precious metals." Then he added, "And it is easier to accept exchange for goods of equal value, but gold and silver are not acceptable."

"Then what to change?" Chen Zhongyuan looked at her with thick eyebrows like silkworm babies and asked.

"Sheep, medicinal materials." Hong Lianshuo said without thinking, "As long as it's goods, we want them."

"You really miss the sheep." Han Qinhu said with a dumbfounded voice.

"This mutton can be eaten, and the sheepskin can be used as a coat to keep warm." Hong Lian looked at them with bright eyes and said, "Every body is a treasure." She paused and added, "And it's not very eye-catching. If you want to change horses, they will be there immediately.

Be alert and don’t even think about it.”

"That's true, horses are strategic materials." Han Qinhu nodded hurriedly when he heard this, "Then let's exchange goods of equal value."

"Now that we have decided, let's dig and build the salt field first." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with calm eyes and said, "In addition to the salt field, we also need to build houses for residence, storage, and living..."
