Chapter 2393 Industry Competition Determines Monopoly

"Thanks to your majesty, everything is safe and sound." Yang Huanjin replied, cupping his fists and saluting in the direction of Chang'an.

After Huang Xianrong saluted, he said to Li Yi: "Dr. Li, bless us."

"The salt delivery came early this time. Do you have anything else to do?" Li Yi was not polite to them.

"To build a new railway, Shu merchants are considering how to allocate ships and investment proportions.

Since the source of the Yellow River belonged to our Tang Dynasty, it has become cheaper for the people of Shu to eat meat.

It is better to go along the Yangtze River than the Yellow River for local medicinal materials. Officials from Shu led everyone to build the road together.

We have a lot of salt, so we should first go to Luoyang to have a look and ask about the suitability of railway construction. "

Yang Huanjin held the wine cup as he spoke, and drank it all in one gulp, filling his stomach with three qian of white wine.

He held his breath, then slowly exhaled the alcohol, showing a relaxed look on his face.

He was nervous all the way here and didn't dare to make any mistakes.

After seeing Li Yi, I was completely relieved.

I am even more fortunate that Li Yi sent the exchange coupons and brought the people from the Salt Gang to support the war.

If Li Yi was rejected at that time...

I don't dare to think about it. I dreamed about the scene when I didn't give Li Yi face. I woke up in a fright and broke into a sweat. I recalled it carefully before I recovered. It was a false alarm.

After taking a shower but unable to sleep, I found someone to drink with.

Looking at Li Yi now, I still feel unreal and in a trance.

Li Yi used a pair of chopsticks to pick up braised wild boar ears for the two of them: "Try the wild boar's ears."

Yang Huanjin and Huang Xianrong had eaten wild game, but at this moment they looked like they were seeing them for the first time.

Li Yi changed his chopsticks back: "Twenty steam engine ships were released six months ago. They are not owned by individuals. They are calculated according to the normal transportation price and adopt a leasing model.

Anyone who has contributed in the war will enjoy a 10% discount, that is, 10% of the profit.

Secondly, the advantage is that sailing against the current saves time, and there is no need for trackers when crossing rapids.

When the canal railway is repaired, the cost will still be about the same, and you will still get a 10% discount. "

Li Yi explained how to operate it. Do you want to organize and join forces? This is allowed when supporting the war effort, but not for daily business transactions.

You have monopolized the entire industry and transportation in Shu, will the others still survive?

I am also planning to support more large businesses in Shu. They must compete and compete.

Yang Huanjin and Huang Xianrong chewed the pig ears for a moment, then started chewing again.

Others showed knowing smiles, balancing politics and business.

The only one who can't balance is Xiao Yi. Fortunately, he balances himself and restrains himself.

Li Yi and Yang Huanjin finished eating the pig ears and held the wine cups: "The 10% shipping cost is a lot, and the time saved is more important.

The Yan Gang's industry is salt production. As long as the output can keep up, the shorter the transportation time, the greater the shipment volume.

Unlike transporting lychees, those lychees cannot be produced. Due to the production limit, the time cost of the return journey is negligible.

The advantage of transporting fresh fruits such as lychees is that it takes a short time. You can go down the Yangtze River and change trains at the canal, and you can still eat fresh fruits in Luoyang and Chang'an.

As for other industries, there are vegetables and cucumbers in Shu in winter. If they are well preserved, they can be kept for ten to eight days. "

Li Yi analyzed the industrial model and profit points, as well as the specific manifestations of transportation costs and time effects.

The two of them finished their drinks, and Yang Huanjin put down his wine cup: "With the railway, those selling fresh fruits don't need to rent a steam engine boat. They can rent other boats to go down the river. Those who sell the fruit can find a boat to go back to."

"As long as I have a way to sell certain goods in Shu, I will come here on another ship and then rent a steam engine ship to go back.

Why not pursue profits on the return trip? I even arranged for people to buy things and sell them upstream.

I don’t need to produce my own salt. I buy your salt and transport it to leave a profit for me. I am only a middleman. "

Li Yi told the other party that the role of steam engine ships lies in commercial transportation needs and is not targeted at a certain industry.

Come here, are you going back in an empty boat?

He continued: "There will be some situations in the future. For example, you have a monopoly on a large amount of the salt in Shu, and someone can buy it at a low price. You..."

"We will handle it." Huang Xianrong promised.

"Why do you handle it? His Majesty sells his salt at a loss. How dare you handle it?"

Li Yi looked at the other party, did I let you handle it? Do you even want to prevent other people's business competition?

"I thought, Mr. Li, you didn't want other people to participate! But there are local rules!"

Huang Xianrong was shocked. Your Majesty would never do that.

"Therefore, the industry needs to be optimized and the brand needs to be established. At the same price, Yanbang's salt has the best quality. In addition, new varieties should be developed, such as..."

"Hmm! Xiao Yi, Your Majesty has some salt to sell."

Bi Gou coughed, "If you have something good, don't you think of His Majesty first?"

"Your Majesty must make money in secret, not in the open. Your Majesty no longer needs to use the money from selling salt to raise soldiers.

Your Majesty's well salt will be used for balance in the future. If the salt gang in Shu dares to raise the price, your Majesty's salt will be released in your Majesty's name.

It will be written in the newspaper to tell the people that His Majesty has given salt.

Just like the Li Family Zhuangzi, Zhuangzi from other industries are involved in it, but there is no trace of it.

Lijiazhuangzi will attack anyone who destroys the price system, and Lijiazhuangzi is everywhere. "

Li Yi explained another system. Just like he did then, every industry has an invisible hand secretly.

"Yes, I think His Majesty thinks so too." Li Longji agreed, do I need to stand up?

"Yes, yes, yes." Yang Huanjin nodded, UU reading www. uukanshu.net There is so much hatred in my heart! What's wrong with you? What is the new variety?

"Think for yourself, don't expect to ask Xiao Yi for anything."

Bi Gou saw it, I did it on purpose, what do you want me to do?

"Yes, yes, Bi Zaifu's teaching is right." Yang Huanjin wanted to cry.

"Actually, it's nothing. There are bamboos in Sichuan, and the well salt itself is clean. The locals like to put the salt into the bamboo and bake it. Bamboo salt.

Extra things are added to supplement trace elements. Normal people cannot use it, but sailors need it when they go to sea.

In addition, if you go to other places, the local nutrition is not balanced enough, so you can eat this.

Its use has limitations, but you can't say it has no market.

It is also purified many times and crushed into fine powder. This salt is the refined salt normally used in Zhuangzi and is used when mixing vegetables.

Before I go back, remind me that I have several prescriptions with different effects, so I gave them all. "

Li Yi doesn't hide his secrets, just tell you, go back and study, the formulas can be given away.

Yang Huanjin and Huang Xianrong stood up and saluted Li Yishen.

They both understood that Li Yihui had many things, so they didn't care.

It's the same as throwing a packet of salt at someone else's house when you see they don't have any. It doesn't matter.

"Dr. Li, if there are any shortcomings in the work of the Salt Gang in the future, I would like to inform you in advance. The Salt Gang will definitely make corrections immediately."

Yang Huanjin bowed again, afraid that if someone could just tell you the recipe, they could easily deal with you.

The more casual you are when you give, the more relaxed you will be when you clean up.

"Discuss with each other. It's not good for you to lose money. Salt helps me feel at ease. You... I feel more at ease."

Li Yi then stood up and asked the two of them to sit down. What were we talking about?

Yang Huanjin and Huang Xianrong are tired, are you relieved? Don’t worry, why did you mention the Salt Gang first and then us alone? How did you get divided?
