"Master, the Qiming Chamber of Commerce is still selling salt all the time, and it is still sold at the price of 2 copper coins per pound."
A servant of Xu's condiment shop reported to the shopkeeper.
"I know, I'll go find my boss right now."
The shopkeeper said it.
"Hey, we're in big trouble now."
The shopkeeper said,
Now that all the information has been revealed, although I don't know what is wrong with the people at Qiming Merchant, they did not take advantage of the great opportunity to make money, but chose to buy salt at the original price and sell it at the original price.
What’s even more hateful is that no one in the Ming Dynasty dares to offend the people behind the Qiming Chamber of Commerce!
"My boss, we have found out that the people who bought salt all over the city were people from the Qiming Chamber of Commerce, and they are still selling salt at 2 copper coins per pound."
In the reception room, the shopkeeper said to the young master.
"Our respected emperor, it is best to save things. As far as I know, before His Majesty ascended the throne, the treasury was empty. The grain and salt in it were only enough to last the people of the capital for one month.
But now, although there is not much money in the capital's treasury, there is indeed no shortage of grain and salt in it.
The salt in the treasury is at least 50,000 shi. It was enough for all the people in the capital to eat and drink for three months. "
Said the boy from the club.
The higher the position, the more terrifying the current emperor feels. In just a few years, the empty treasury was filled to the brim by the emperor.
National treasury revenue soared more than 30 times.
The vulnerable Ming army also changed its appearance and became a battle-hardened elite.
The arrogant civil servants were overwhelmed by newspapers.
Is this really something humans can do?
Although anyone with a discerning eye could see that the powerful landlords and wealthy businessmen were dissatisfied with the emperor, they still tried to survive.
Without the knowledge of local information, they were like a bunch of fat sheep. The reason why the court did not move them was because they could not find a suitable reason.
The current salt ship incident is an excellent interface.
"Then what should we do? Are we just going to watch Qiming Chamber of Commerce make this money?"
The shopkeeper said it a bit unwillingly.
After all, he had just been reprimanded a lot in front of everyone. If he couldn't move back, his position as shopkeeper would be hard to protect.
"Why, you know that this is His Majesty's plan, but you still want to participate. Do you think His Majesty's sword can't be wielded? Or do you think our Xu family is tougher?" said the young boss.
"Who doesn't care about money? But
The current actions of the Qiming Chamber of Commerce have made His Majesty's decision clear. It is not a wise move to go against the Emperor for a little money.
"Shopkeeper, there is someone outside the door asking to see you, saying that he is giving money to the boss."
Just when the young boss wanted to say something, the boy's voice came from outside the door.
After bringing him in, the young boss spoke directly without waiting for the shopkeeper to speak.
After a while, a man wearing common clothes walked in.
"What's your name?" The young boss asked directly.
"I'm just a first-level little person. I won't mention my name."
The common man said.
"What's your purpose here?"
"In order to make money."
"How to make money?"
"I have 100,000 stones of salt. I don't know if you are interested in it."
The commoner man directly dropped a bombshell.
"One hundred thousand stones, did you rob the treasury?"
The common man asked with a smile?
