"General Cheng, please take it easy in advance. Some people say that our salt is poisonous salt, and they don't believe that the salt we sell is edible. I have to prove it to reassure people."
Li Min said.
"Who? Who said this without opening their eyes? How dare you say that such good salt is poisonous salt?! Come out and talk to me!"
Cheng Yaojin was unhappy when he heard this!
Once he shows up like this, who dares to say no?
Everyone was afraid that it was too late.
"Mr. Zili's salt is of the highest quality. How can you say it is poisonous salt?"
Fang Xuanling also said.
Wei Zheng even said: "We just ate yesterday, so we don't think anything will happen today."
In this way, with the three princes telling the truth, the people seemed to believe a little bit.
However, they still have doubts.
Seeing is believing.
Besides, Li Min hasn't gotten out the salt yet. In people's minds, these white things are not like salt!
"It's okay. They don't believe it. I'll make them believe it in a while!"
Li Min said.
Then Zhu Shan said: "The auspicious time has arrived."
"Okay, show the salt!"
He gave the order and Zhu Shan went to take command.
Car after car of fine salt was exposed.
These salts are pure white and flawless.
Under the sun, it looks more like white snow
Everyone was shocked.
Look at this form, where is the mineral salt?
Mineral salt contains a lot of impurities.
And the colors are different.
It doesn’t look like the common table salt, because why? Because it's too clean. It's so clean that it feels unreal. I have been eating salt for decades, but today I see salt like this. No one wants to believe it!
Wang Yang and others were also puzzled.
Just now he was swearing about poisonous salt, but now he has shut up.
Because of what.
Because they know that this is top-grade table salt.
Toxic things won't be clean.
Anyone who makes salt knows this and has seen salt like this.
White salt can be made, but it requires more processes, and even the output is not large.
Looking at the carts of white salt, the five of them were shocked.
This was something they didn't expect.
At the same time, the five people stopped saying anything.
Some people who didn't believe it asked directly.
"Since it's edible, you guys try it, try it now! Let's see!"
Li Min smiled.
"as you wish."
After finishing, he shouted.
Ask Zhu Shan to get out the stove and other items.
And prepared some ingredients.
There is also a table placed at the entrance of Shengtang Group.
Let the chef start cooking.
The salt used comes from carts of salt nearby.
After the cook's operation, he added a lot of salt.
The last few dozen dishes were all finished and then placed on the table.
Li Min signaled Cheng Yaojin and others to sit down.
Ji Ruxue stood behind him.
Someone gave me a glass of wine.
"Come, come, let's eat it and show the common people whether this salt is poisonous or not!"
The three of them nodded in agreement and started eating.
During the banquet, the four people toasted each other and started eating and drinking.
The aroma of the food spread everywhere, causing the people nearby to swallow their saliva.
The four of them drank and talked happily without caring about others.
Very happy to eat.
In this way, everyone believed it.
It’s already like this. If you still don’t believe it, you’re stupid.
So, someone asked: "How can I sell this salt?"
Someone responded: "The quality is so good, it must be expensive, right? It's too expensive and we can't afford it!"
"Yes, I see that this salt has no impurities. It is absolutely high-quality. The price may not be acceptable to us!"
It seems that some people still don’t know the price!
After all, it hasn’t really been announced yet!
Li Min knew that the time was ripe
Then he said: "One stone and one tael of silver, no matter how much it is, it's the same, no matter how much it is, no one can deceive anyone!"
As soon as these words came out, the scene exploded.
Wang Yang was even more surprised.
You know, Li Min's salt is of higher quality than theirs.
And the price is only one-fifth of theirs, they are not competitive at all! That's bullshit!
So these people somewhat believed that Li Min could really defeat them and the Chamber of Commerce. A single salt can seriously debilitate everyone.
But Wang Yang still refused to admit it.
"Don't worry, everyone. If his price is so low, people will be afraid that the quality will not be good! Our business will not be affected in any way! No one will dare to buy his salt!"
This is blind confidence.
He actually thought that Li Min's salt tasted bad.
The other four people seemed to understand.
There seems to be something wrong with this rhetoric.
The truth quickly hit Wang Yang in the face.
Because people started to rush to buy salt
"I want a stone!"
"I want ten pounds!"
"I want twenty..."
People rushed to take out their money, and it seemed that everyone was convinced.
All this happened so fast, which made Wang Yang and others very puzzled.
They can only watch the business in front of them getting better and better.
They got it wrong this time! How could you provoke such a person? It's all Wang Yang's fault! It wouldn't be like this if it weren't for him, but things have become settled, what else can be done?
"Zhu Shan, you are in charge!"
After Li Min finished his work, he handed over the business to Zhu Shan.
And he was going to the backyard.
But he was stopped by Cheng Yaojin.
"Mr. Zili, where is our salt? How many trucks can we give it to? All my trucks have been pulled over."
There's really nothing you can do about this old guy.
Well, it’s for sale anyway.
Just give them some.
"Yuan Tiangang, you lead General Cheng's motorcade inside and get fifty vehicles for them!"
"yes!"
Cheng Yaojin felt it was not enough.
If one cart carries two thousand kilograms, then one cart is almost eighteen stones and fifty carts, nine hundred stones, so it is only nine hundred taels.
"Just fifty cars?"
"If you don't have enough, come and get it. You can get as much as you sell, so that there won't be any inventory. Besides, I still have 400,000 stones that I haven't got out yet."
"That works!"
Once these words were spoken, people were shocked.
Four hundred thousand shi is equal to four hundred thousand taels of silver.
It would be terrible if they were all sold out.
There are two million people in Chang'an City, and each person eats up to four kilograms of salt a year.
Eight million kilograms are eaten in a year.
One stone is equal to about 120 kilograms, 400,000 kilograms, and 48 million kilograms of salt. That is a huge amount.
Chang'an City alone may not be fully consumed in a year.
But some people like to hoard them, and the surrounding towns will also come to buy them.
If Li Min takes the entire share of Chang'an at once, it will be a fatal blow to the five major families, and the status of the entire family in Chang'an will be shaken
And Li Min doesn't plan to sell it in Chang'an, maybe it can be extended to other places.
Before Li Er notices, make him a lot of money first.
Faced with the huge sales of Li Min salt.
The five major families were all jealous.
The business of Yanba from major aristocratic families has plummeted!
What awaits them will be a salty winter.
All this happened because of a young man.
