Chapter 938 Cooperation
"Master Wu, since you are here, let's get straight to the point. I won't hide anything. We are indeed planning to sell our snowflake salt to Jiangnan, so that the price can at least double. We are all ordinary people, just to make a living, just want to make more money."
Wu Xiumin admired the boy in front of him, no, the girl in front of him was smart, intelligent, and cheerful. She didn't avoid or hide anything, but put the words on the table.
"Mr. Jiang, since you are open and honest, I will not hide anything. The purpose of my visit this time is for the snowflake salt from your Lijia Village. You sell the snowflake salt to Jiangnan to make more money.
In this case, then sell this snowflake salt directly to our Wu family. We can give you another five taels of silver on top of the previous price. Of course, the doubling you want is still a little far away.
Once you arrive in Jiangnan, you can certainly do it, but the carriages and manpower you spend along the way will cost you money, and the profit you get after spending will naturally be discounted. Why don't you sell this snowflake salt directly to our Wu family.
The rest of the carriages and manpower will be borne by our Wu family. For our two families, it is a win-win situation. What do you think, Mr. Jiang?"
Jiang Xiaoxiao pondered. Her purpose was to get information from the outside world.
It is not necessary to go to Jiangnan.
Compared to the advanced technology of later generations, in ancient times, traveling by boat and carriage was indeed a difficult journey.
Until now, Jiang Xiaoxiao is still not used to riding in a carriage.
It is said that it is good to lean on a big tree for shade. The Wu family in front of them obviously has rich resources behind them.
If they cooperate with each other, maybe what they want can be easily obtained.
"Master Wu, it is not impossible for us to cooperate. But Master Wu, I want to add a condition to our cooperation this time."
Wu Xiumin smiled, "Mr. Jiang, please speak."
If the handsome young man in front of him did not have any conditions, there would be a problem.
"I just need the mansion reports of each mansion every ten days."
This request was beyond Wu Xiumin's expectation.
The people who need the mansion reports are all the patriarchs and officials of some big families, in order to gain insight into the court's movements, but why would a country boy do it?
"That's easy."
Wu Xiumin did not think much about it. This was a simple matter. No matter what the other party's purpose was, it would not harm the interests of the Wu family, and the other party obviously had a way to improve those black salt and coarse salt.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for snowflake salt to appear in large quantities.
She had already asked someone to investigate the fact that Lijia Village could make its own snowflake salt.
No matter how meticulous Li Tieniu and his men were, they were just country boys after all. How could they be so smart?
How could there be no news about her people?
After investigation, it was found that the people in Lijia Village were originally salt dealers who sold private salt. Now these private salt dealers can produce white snowflake salt, which proves that they have the formula.
The most obvious change in Lijia Village is that there is a young master Jiang in Lijia Village.
This young master Jiang happened to be a woman dressed as a man, so the biggest possibility is that this young master Jiang is a lady from a big family in the court. From the other party's conversation, momentum, and demeanor, it can be seen that she has received a good education.
Completely different from ordinary country villagers.
In this case, why can't they cooperate?
Maybe the other party is a young lady from a family in trouble. As long as the other party does not infringe on her own interests, it is not a bad idea to cooperate with each other.
And now she really needs this salt road of snowflake salt to open some roads in the court for them, of course, to clean up some people who covet the position of the head of the family with ill intentions.
In this case, why not join forces?
The two sides re-signed the contract.
This time, snowflake salt was sold to the Wu family at 15 taels of silver per catty.
The existing more than 4,000 catties of snowflake salt had been loaded on the carriage, covered with some grain bags, and now all of them have been loaded on the Wu family's carriage and directly transported by the Wu family.
4,500 catties of snowflake salt directly gave them 67,500 taels of silver.
The remaining snowflake salt will be delivered ten days later.
Wu Xiumin said goodbye.
After seeing Wu Xiumin off, Jiang Xiaoxiao sighed.
Fortunately, Wu Xiumin can still provide her with some information, but it seems that she has to find a way to open up a news network across the country. If she relies purely on the Wu family, it will not be reliable in the future.
Some of the information she wants is probably something that no one can think of.
Jiang Xiaoxiao did not hesitate to receive such a large sum of money.
She directly divided the silver into three parts, and the snowflake salt was for Lijia Village, Linjia Village and her.
Of course, she also took out half of the silver and handed it directly to Li Tieniu as usual.
Let them continue to allocate part of the silver, in addition to improving the housing conditions of each family in the village.
In addition, continue to help Linjia Village to repair the city wall, and continue to find some refugees in the city.
Since there is a large amount of silver, why not expand the village?
With more people, they will build it more prosperous.
Didn’t you see that the 400 people of them opened up 400 acres of wasteland.
These 400 acres of wasteland are enough to feed the whole village.
Jiang Xiaoxiao improved these wastelands. Of course, the wastelands are indeed wastelands, and it is also a fact that they are barren.
The biggest reason why people can't live is the land problem. The soil quality of the land irrigated with the spiritual spring water in the space has indeed improved, and the rice seeds produced in her space will be more abundant when cultivated.
She has the ability to improve this world, why not do what she can to allow more people to live a stable life.
Take this opportunity to select some good seedlings from the refugees, spread them out intelligently, and form a network she needs.
This is also the only way for Jiang Xiaoxiao to get manpower. You can't disrupt the daily lives of all the villagers and force them to help her. This is not appropriate. Instead, the lives of those refugees are guaranteed, and there is money to live a stable life that was rare in the past.
They just need to find out some information, without any risks and dangers. How many people can't wait to go to such a life.
Besides, more refugees know that Mr. Jiang is here to guarantee their lives.
They are willing to work for Mr. Jiang, even if they are asked to die.
Of course, these people who go out have been trained in advance. First of all, they must have certain skills.
They also need to go through some special anti-reconnaissance training. These are the learning experiences that Jiang Xiaoxiao got from Song Moting. Of course, her son and daughter also taught her some experiences.
Now all of them are used to train these people. I think this will be an elite team.
Although they are not as good as real scouts, if they are shown out, they may have real skills.
