Three Kingdoms: I choose to assist Sun Jian

But in this room, there are a group of shirtless men who are going back and forth with pots of white things.

I saw the contents in the basin were as white as snow and as fine as sand, and at a glance, they were crystal clear.

Seeing this, Zhuge Jin and Lu Su, who came here for the first time like everyone else, were surprised and said:

"Sir, what is this?"

Facing the questioning of the two, Bailiming laughed and said:

"You can see the things you eat every day, but now you can't recognize them?"

"Things to eat?"

When Lu Fan heard this, he quickly grabbed a handful from the small basin beside him and took a closer look.

Then, he saw a strange look in his eyes and said:

"Is this salt?"

Amidst the strangeness, he hastily dipped a little into his mouth.

As the refined salt melted in his mouth, his eyes became a little lax and said:

"Military division, this kind of salt is actually made by our army?"

"This salt alone is better than those fine salts!"

"There is not even a trace of bitterness in the entrance!"

To say that among all the people, the one with the most difficult background is Lu Fan.

Therefore he has eaten all kinds of salt.

From the most unpalatable coarse salt to the finest refined salt.

But these salts are nothing compared to the handful in front of him!

Because even the finest salt has a hint of bitterness!

But there is no salt in front of me!

As soon as everyone heard this, they hurried forward and dipped salt into their mouths.

In the next second, everyone's faces were full of intoxication.

Salty, not astringent, smooth taste, no aftertaste!

Even Gu Yong, who is used to eating high-quality refined salt, also brightened his eyes and said:

"Fruit is good salt!"

In other words, it is precisely because he is used to eating refined salt that he can better taste the subtle differences.

He tasted it for a while, then hurriedly said:

"If it's this refined salt, can it really make money?"

"I don't know how many we have now?"

"How much money are you going to sell?"

Bailiming heard this and said with a smile:

"This salt has been refined since this year, and thirty thousand stones have already been produced!"

"You do the math, if it is based on the market price, how much can we sell this salt for?"

"Thirty thousand stones?"

Hearing this, Gu Yong hurriedly said in a deep voice:

"Currently, the price of a catty of refined salt in the market is about [-] yuan. If our army sells it, it can be sold for up to [-] yuan."

"If we can sell all of them, it should be no less than 4000 million yuan!"

"Two hundred and forty million dollars?"

Everyone was shocked when they heard Gu Yong's calculation.

Good guy, I didn't expect that the stock of this workshop alone has more than 2 million yuan?

When Bu Zhi heard this, his eyes lit up and he said:

"With this one thing alone, our treasury will have money!"

More than 037 million [-], even for a big state, it is not a small fortune!

Beside him, Lu Dai, Lu Fan and others were also happy and said:

"No wonder the military adviser said that there are strategic materials piled up here. From this point of view, the salt alone here is enough for our army's income!"

While everyone was talking, before Bai Liming could speak, Gu Yong shook his head slightly and said:

"Everyone, you can't think like this when doing business. Our army needs to produce so much refined salt. I'm afraid the cost is not low!"

You must know that refined salt is so expensive, you get what you pay for.

If he wanted to make this kind of refined salt, the cost would be no less than [-] million yuan according to his estimate!

If this is the case, they can only earn 4000 million yuan with so much refined salt.

Immediately he looked at Baili Ming and said:

"Dare to ask the military division, how much does our army cost per catty for making refined salt like this?"

Seeing Gu Yong's worried appearance, Bai Liming smiled slightly and said:

"The cost is less than ten dollars."

"what?"

Hearing this, everyone was stunned for a while, Gu Yong stared and said:

"Ten coins?"

"Military division, at most ten coins can be used to make low-grade salt, how can it be possible to make refined salt?"

As he spoke, he suddenly froze and said:

"Unless the military division uses a new salt-making method!"

"Correct!"

Bai Liming nodded with a smile and said:

"The ten dollars is the cost of making low-grade salt, but our military has used a special method to turn low-grade salt into refined salt."

"The cost has not increased much, but it can be sold for more money!"

"Speaking of which, I might as well tell you that all the workshops and crafts here have been improved!"

"Not only salt, but also sugar, wine, paper, and even some things you have never seen before!"

"And since you are here, you should listen more and ask less!"

"Bringing you here this time is to give you a reassurance!"

"Our army has these things, basically there is no shortage of money!"

"And our task is to lay these things out and realize them!"

"This is how our army makes money!"

After hearing Bai Liming's words, everyone immediately looked at each other in blank dismay.

Until this moment, they finally knew why there were such strict guards here!

If what Bai Liming said just now is true, then the huge profits that can be increased by the salt alone will be several times!

This kind of profit is enough for all businessmen to go crazy!

And, there was something else they hadn't seen yet.

It is conceivable that if all these things are improved, what huge profits will be generated!

For a while, they subconsciously looked around the small valley around them.

This is a restricted area, this is clearly Jinshan! .

Chapter 198 Monopoly Profits, Movable Type, Exciting Crowds

After watching the refined salt workshop, everyone tacitly did not choose to ask more questions.

Even if Gu Yong knew about the huge profits, he didn't dare to say a word.

Because salt and iron are no better than other things, these two things have always been monopolized by the imperial court because of huge profits.

It wasn't until the Eastern Han Dynasty that public-private partnerships were established that they had to be transferred to some small workshops!

And now Bailiming has specially improved the salt-making process in order to obtain this terrifying price difference!

It can be said that the interests of this area, except for public use, whoever touches it will die!

Especially now that the technology has been improved, high-quality salt can be produced at a low price. Once this point is exposed, they will become the target of public criticism.

However, although they didn't dare to ask about Yan, everyone wanted to put forward their own opinions.

Lu Su walked with Bai Liming for a while, and couldn't help but cupped his hands and said:

"Military division, I have something to say, I don't know if I should say it or not!"

Hearing Lu Su's words, Bai Liming turned around and said with a smile:

"Zijing has something to say, but it's okay to say it!"

He still has a good impression of Lu Su!

Although he came from a businessman's family, he is honest and has great wisdom. Every time he either doesn't speak, or speaks directly to the point.

Suddenly speaking now must have been well thought out.

After listening to Lu Su's words, everyone turned around for a while.

Facing everyone's eyes, Lu Su murmured:

"Military division Cai just took me to see the refined salt workshop. Originally, according to what Mr. Bao said, if our army is sold out, it should be enough to be close to [-] gold!"

"However, refined salt is not like coarse salt. Ordinary people can't afford it. Only wealthy families can afford it."

"Although our army has a large population, it may take a lot of time to sell the [-] shi of refined salt."

"However, when our army sells salt, it is naturally impossible to only sell it once!"

"In this way, there will be more workshops in the future, and I'm afraid there will be inventory problems!"

He said a lot, and everyone listened and immediately understood what he meant.

To put it simply, this batch of salt is too much, and the aristocratic families under their command can't consume it all!

But the salt they sell is manufactured continuously.

If it cannot be sold, it will lead to the accumulation of refined salt.

"Military Master, Zijing is right!"

Gu Yong nodded and said:

"Although this batch of refined salt is good, ordinary small families can't afford it at all, and big families can consume it, but [-] shi is really too much!"

After finishing speaking, he looked at Bai Liming and suggested:

"In my opinion, we might as well reduce the price appropriately to about [-] yuan!"

"In this way, when the common people see that our refined salt is good, they should also pay for it!"

"Sold out so fast!"

Listening to what the two said, Bai Liming shook his head and said with a smile:

"Don't worry about this matter, I will find a way to find a market!"

"The price can't be lowered by a penny!"

"If it falls, we will suffer a lot!"

According to the two, it is indeed good, but their output can't keep up!
