Seeing Zhao Feng's very determined attitude, Yu Ruhai quickly said sorry, and then stopped discussing the matter, and instead talked to Zhao Feng about the issue of those snowflake salts.
"Mr. Zhang, if this snowflake salt is delivered to the capital, it will definitely have good sales, right? I wonder what Mr. Zhao's price for these snowflake salts is?"
Zhao Feng smiled slightly and said to Yu Ruhai.
"Since we are going to target the Liu family this time, we can't boil the frog in warm water. After all, the centipede is dead but not stiff. We must completely defeat him!"
"So the price of these snowflake salts is the same as the price of the Liu family's green salt. Even so, they can still make a lot of money for the Li family!"
Yu Ruhai was very emotional. He didn't expect that Zhao Feng was not only a great talent in materials, but also had a very good character.
Whether it is officialdom or these business wars, the enemy will never stop fighting. If you are soft-hearted towards your enemies, you will only push yourself into the abyss.
Zhao Feng obviously understood this truth, so he had no intention of leaving a way for the Liu family to survive!
After a few days, the snowflake salt that Zhao Feng produced was finally transported to the capital.
Because Zhou Kang had beaten those officials before, those officials directly withdrew all the privileges they had given the Liu family's green salt.
For a time, the Liu family's green salts were not only unable to move around the capital, but were even targeted by officials in many places.
The green salt that was originally very popular disappeared in a short period of time, and was replaced by a snowflake salt with a white texture, better quality, and as light as snowflakes that appeared in the capital.
As soon as this snowflake salt appeared in the capital, it quickly became the most favored item by the dignitaries. They purchased these snowflake salts in large quantities, and even the common people in the capital knew how good this snowflake salt was.
Some people began to compete for these snowflake salts. In order to buy two taels of snowflake salt, they queued up from the beginning of the day until noon.
As for the shops selling snowflake salt, as soon as they put up the sign that snowflake salt is for sale, the snowflake salt will be sold out in a short time. The shops that originally sold green salt have now replaced table salt with snowflake salt.
In just a few days, snowflake salt became completely popular in the capital, but no one knew that this was actually inseparable from the secret promotion of those officials.
On the contrary, the previous green salt suddenly became something that no one cared about!
In the fourth prince's mansion, Zhou Kang and Zhou Rui were eating. All the dishes on their table were cooked with snowflake salt as condiments.
Zhou Kang tasted these dishes and couldn't help but said with emotion.
"As expected of Mr. Zhao, no matter what he is engaged in, he can be the best in the world!"
"I never thought there was salt in the world that has no bitter taste at all!"
After Zhou Rui tasted the dishes, he nodded and said.
"Mr. Zhao's talents are indeed extraordinary. It's a pity that he doesn't want to come to the capital to develop. Otherwise, we can recommend him to become an official in the court."
Zhou Kang smiled, waved his hand, and said to Zhou Rui.
"Brother, you still don't understand Mr. Zhao!"
"Based on Mr. Zhao's character, even if he joins the court as an official, he will never be recommended by the two of us. Instead, he will climb into the court step by step!"
"But I also believe that this time will not be too short. It won't be long before Mr. Zhao will come to the capital to help you and me!"
Zhou Rui took a deep breath, nodded, and said.
"I'm really looking forward to this day. I hope Mr. Zhao can come earlier!"
Even the two princes of the current dynasty were buying this snowflake salt, not to mention the dignitaries below and the wealthy people in the capital.
Since Zhao Feng and the others only delivered the snowflake salt to these grocery stores in the capital, retailing was the responsibility of these grocery stores, so these grocery stores also had more say in the pricing of snowflake salt.
Since the purchasing price of snowflake salt is the same as that of green salt, and snowflake salt is more popular than green salt, those grocery stores have stopped stocking green salt for a long time and have all replaced it with the best snowflake salt.
By the time this news reached the ears of the Liu family in Huaigu Fucheng, the snowflake salt had completely occupied the capital market, completely ousting their Liu family's salt from the capital market!
"How did this happen? How could such good salt suddenly appear?"
"I heard that this salt was made by the Li family. How is this possible! Aren't the salt ores in their salt mountain the lowest quality? They can't even make green salt?"
"What on earth should we do?"
Liu Er sat on the main seat and watched the elders of the Liu family quarreling with each other below. Everyone had worried faces, and he suddenly felt very depressed and aggrieved. He slammed the table and roared angrily.
"That's enough, why bother?"
"Can quarreling with each other solve the problem? We might as well think about it quickly, what kind of expert did the Li family hire to get this snowflake salt out!"
The elders of the Liu family were startled by Liu Er, but then they slammed the table angrily, pointed at Liu Er and yelled.
"How dare you, Liu Er, to scold us now? Don't you know that we are all your elders?"
"Without us, would you be able to become the head of the Liu family?"
"I made you the head of the Liu family just to let you think of a way. Now that you have no other way, you actually dare to vent your anger on us. I think it's really against the grain!"
After hearing the words of these clan elders, Liu Er felt a heavy sigh of frustration in his heart, and then he sighed and said.
"If there is really no other way, we can only lower the price of salt from our Liu family!"
The clan elders frowned, but there was no other good way to do it, so they had no choice but to nod in agreement.
But at this moment, a servant of the Liu family hurried in from outside and shouted.
"Clan leader, it's not good!"
"The Li family's salt mountain began to sell a large amount of salt. Although the quality of the salt is not as good as snowflake salt, it is not much different from our Liu family's green salt, but the price they sell is very cheap. A pound of salt can only be sold for one tael of silver!"
"You can buy one tael of salt for 100 copper plates. Many people and some businessmen have begun to buy in large quantities. However, it seems that the Li family's salt cannot be sold out. They can sell tens of thousands of jins every day!"
Upon hearing this, Liu suddenly opened his eyes wide, ran over quickly, grabbed the scary man by the collar, and stared at him directly.
