The output of 50,000 kilograms of salt per month would be 10,000 taels of silver according to the official salt price.
Even the official selling price algorithm.
Li Xiao can't think so.
The imperial court sold salt, and most of the income went into his own pocket.
If he were to pack up in Holland, his father-in-law Zhu Di would not be able to protect him, so Zhu Yuanzhang jumped up and chopped off his own head.
I heard that Zhu Di also had some private businesses, including salt production, which was also sold to the court's Salt Transportation Department. Can he be more powerful than his father-in-law?
Therefore, his monthly output of 50,000 kilograms of white salt is sold to the Salt Transportation Department.
I estimate that I only got a thousand taels.
Deduct one hundred taels of silver per month for labor costs. I only got nine hundred taels.
But even so, the income is still ten thousand taels of silver a year, and production capacity can be expanded later...
"Eh...that's not right. What the hell am I thinking?"
“Can I grasp a highly profitable thing like salt?
"It's not just a betrothal gift for your father-in-law!"
Li Xiao shook his head to stop himself from thinking.
With this income, the father-in-law will advance rapidly in the battle of Jingnan, and his wife will become a princess as soon as possible. It is the right way to increase his points.
The princess should be able to hit a critical hit a hundred times, and the speed of earning points will be directly increased by a hundred times!
His thoughts returned, Li Xiao looked at the man in front of him and said:
"In this case, please go to every household in the village and let me know."
"The salt field under the salt mine over there is recruiting workers, and the salary is 70 yuan a day."
"Work 9 to 5, do it for the long term, not the short term."
Upon hearing this, the chief was stunned.
long?
70 bucks a day?
Where can I find such good things?
Then everyone still wants to go.
If there are many brothers in the family, going to work will only make it harder for those who stay at home and farm.
I have three sons at home, but they haven’t gotten married yet. Isn’t it just because they are poor? They can also earn some money to get a wife.
The chief was delighted for a while and then asked: "How long can I do it?"
Anyway, there is no need for me to buy insurance... Li Xiao said with a smile: "It will be no problem if I work for the rest of my life."
Now, the manager was even more delighted that he could work for a lifetime! !
He asked again: "Sir, what do you mean by nine to five...? I am not well-educated and cannot understand what you literati are saying."
Zhu Gaoxu was also stunned. He couldn't understand either... Am I not literate?
"Nine to five..."
Li Xiao slapped his head and said, "That's a mistake. I come to work at the beginning of the year and finish work at the end of the day. I work for four hours every day. During this period, I am responsible for one meal, and there is no charge."
The chief was stunned.
You only have to work for four hours a day and take care of one meal! !
Where can I find such a good job?
"You're not lying to us, are you?"
The chief asked with doubts.
"Do you think we look like liars?"
Zhu Gaoxu glared at him: "Go if you are told. Where did all this nonsense come from?"
The director was shocked: "Yes, yes, I promise to do things well."
Li Xiao smiled and said: "Well, please let me know. If you are in need, come directly to the mine tomorrow. We will also check it. Not just everyone is wanted, but mainly strong men, not women."
"Okay. I'll go and tell you now."
The chief bowed and left quickly, thinking that this person was easier to talk to.
Unlike the other person, he was too fierce.
Things were going pretty well.
After doing this, Li Xiao and Zhu Gaoxu rode back home.
On the way, Li Xiao asked: "Gao Xu, I still need to ask you for one hundred taels of silver for the upfront wages."
Zhu Gaoxu patted his chest and said without hesitation: "No problem, I'll give it to you later."
Li Xiao: "That 10% profit is really reserved for you."
Zhu Gaoxu: "No, we are family members. Talking about money will hurt our feelings."
"You really don't want it?"
"don't want!"
"oh..."
....
....
Prince Yan's Mansion.
The sky has turned dark.
After driving for a day, Li Xiongzhi finally arrived at Prince Yan's Mansion.
Li Xiongzhi gave Li Xiao's farmland to his second brother, saying that he was going out to make a living and wouldn't be home for a while.
His second brother gave Li Xiongzhi some silver.
In order to get to Peiping quickly, I spent half of my silver along the way and took a carriage to get there before dark.
When he arrived at Prince Yan's Mansion, he was almost stunned.
This was the first time he had seen such a magnificent mansion.
The ground in front of the door is flat, like a square.
The two tall and mighty lions are scary to look at.
Although he was a little timid, he still pretended to be calm and found the guards.
It was said that he was a friend of Li Xiao's from the same village and came to seek refuge with Li Xiao.
Unexpectedly, the guard's attitude was particularly good.
He also told him that Li Xiao left the house today and has not come back yet.
Li Xiongzhi planned to wait outside the mansion, but the guard enthusiastically took a stool and asked him to sit outside and wait.
This shocked Li Xiongzhi.
Is Li Xiao doing so well in Prince Yan's Mansion?
After waiting for half an hour, he heard the sound of horse hooves.
Then I saw Li Xiao and a young man riding a tall horse.
"Small blog."
Li Xiao said hello to him, jumped off the horse, and a servant immediately came to hold the horse.
"Brother Xiao, I'm here." Li Xiongzhi walked over immediately.
"Li Xiongzhi, this is Prince Gao Xu, the second son of King Yan." Li Xiao introduced again: "Gao Xu, this is my friend from the same village. He came to help me. He is quite smart."
Zhu Gaoxu nodded with a smile.
"I've met Prince Xu."
Li Xiongzhi hurriedly saluted again, and at the same time he was even more shocked.
This is the legendary prince. I have never seen such a big figure in my life!
This relationship is so good, my God, it’s so developed!
Zhu Gaoxu smiled and said: "Brother-in-law's friend, that is my friend Gao Xu. If anything happens in Peiping, please let me know."
"Yes, Prince Xu."
Li Xiongzhi was simply flattered and felt that he saw hope in his life.
This time I completely turned over! ! !
Prince Xu actually said such words, which is enough to show Brother Xiao's status.
Although they were polite words, but for a prince to say such polite words, Li Xiongzhi's scalp went numb.
This is servility. A word from a big shot can make the people below go to pieces.
This is how Li Xiongzhi feels now.
Li Xiao threw a golden bean over and said, "Xiao Zhi, you go to the inn for one night today and wait in front of the house early tomorrow morning."
"Okay Brother Xiao."
Li Xiongzhi happily took it and took a look.
It turns out to be gold. It’s so golden and beautiful. This is the first time I’ve seen it in my life!
He watched Li Xiao and Zhu Gaoxu enter the house, then turned and left.
It took a long time to recover from the shock.
"Brother Xiao is indeed a dragon among men. I discovered it in the village..."
"No wonder many wealthy businessmen send matchmakers to Brother Xiao's house to propose marriage!"
"Follow Brother Xiao well... I'm afraid it won't be long before I can buy a house in Peiping and have a glorious ancestor..."
...
...
Li Xiao and Zhu Gaoxu were walking in the mansion.
Just talking and laughing.
Suddenly a figure jumped out and shouted: "I have been staring at you for a long time... Okay! Okay! If you do big things without me, I will report it to my father!"
Taking a closer look, it was Zhu Gaosui.
Zhu Gaoxu was furious, kicked him, and cursed: "Keep your fucking voice down, I'm looking for a beating!"
Zhu Gaosui was young and thin, so he was kicked over with one kick.
However, he was very stubborn. He patted his butt and stood up, saying, "Second brother, if you don't take me to do something big, even if you beat me to death, I will tell my father!"
Zhu Gaoxu threatened: "Believe it or not, I will beat you to death right now!"
Li Xiao: "......"
