Chapter 785
"For the sake of your Tang Dynasty's sincerity, I, the Han Dynasty, will also give you ten thousand taels!"
In an instant, under the temptation of the fine salt, the Great Xia Dynasty and the Han Dynasty took action one after another. They were extremely interested in the refined salt of the Tang Dynasty.
Tang Yu is not afraid of the major royal families cheating. As long as they dare to cheat with him, he will cut off the supply of the major royal families in the future.
He knew very well that in this era, things were rare and precious, and once the royal families tasted the benefits, they would inevitably deepen their cooperation with Datang on refined salt.
In addition to Dachu, the other five countries sent a large number of envoys to export refined salt this time.
The Zhou Empire and the Southern Liang Dynasty had long been in alliance with Da Chu. Although Emperor Zhou and Emperor Liang were very moved when they saw the fine salt, they suppressed their greed in order not to offend Emperor Chu.
Xu Shize was very smart. He had already expected that the Zhou Empire and the Nanliang Dynasty would not buy it so quickly, so he asked the envoy to leave one hundred kilograms of fine salt for the two royal families to taste.
"The price of one hundred taels per catty is really outrageous!"
At the same time, in the East Palace, Tang Yu heard the news. He was so shocked that his jaw almost broke.
Although he made many suggestions on how to export and how to impress the major royal families, he did not pay much attention to the pricing.

In Tang Yu's opinion, it was quite impressive that a pound of refined salt could be sold for twenty or thirty taels of silver. Unexpectedly, Tang Huang discussed with Xu Shize and directly priced the silver at one hundred taels per pound.
When Ning Wan'er heard this, she was surprised and said: "One hundred taels per catty of salt is too expensive, but I think all the royal families will pay for it."
"Wan'er, are you kidding me?" Tang Yu was stunned.
"How could I joke with you?"
Ning Wan'er pursed her lips and smiled and said: "Tang Yu, you have to understand that His Majesty and Prime Minister are very smart. They only cooperate with major royal families. All major royal families know that refined salt has a price but no market. If you buy it at a cost of one hundred taels, they will change hands. If you sell two hundred taels, someone will definitely take over."
"No way? Are there really so many taken advantage of in the world?" Tang Yu was a little unbelievable.
Ning Wan'er couldn't laugh or cry: "You really underestimate the purchasing power of people in the world. There are so many rich people in the world? At its peak, my Ning family's wealth exceeded 60 million taels of silver, ranking among the top three wealthy businessmen in the seven countries in the world. However, then It’s all old history! Currently, my wealth exceeds 60 million taels, and I’m afraid I can’t even make it into the top 30 on the rich list!”
"Among the seven countries in the world, the Tang Dynasty is the weakest. The other six countries with the worst comprehensive national strength are many times better than the Tang Dynasty. Moreover, the wealth of the world's merchants accounts for more than 70% of the world's total wealth. If two refined salt One hundred taels per catty, my Ning family will also buy in large quantities, even if the price is expensive, my Ning family can’t afford it?”
"That's right!" Tang Yu suddenly said.
He suddenly realized that in modern times, it seems that a small number of people have mastered a large amount of wealth in society. Just like high-end cars, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Audi are obviously very expensive, but all three cars are selling well, and the three companies have made a lot of money. The bowl is full.
In ancient times, the same truth was true. No matter how expensive high-quality refined salt was, there was always a customer group suitable for it.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty has urgently summoned you, please hurry to the Jinluan Palace!"
"Father is calling urgently?"
Hearing this, Emperor Tang's expression changed.
The morning court had just ended, so how could it be summoned urgently?
Is it possible that the sales of refined salt have hit a wall?
