Chapter 444 The benefits are gratifying
Li Xuan did not stay in Youzhou for a long time, and with Yuan Madge and Duanmu Ye, he determined that the two sides would jointly send troops to Pinglu.
On the same day, I quit and set off and returned to Dandong!
Yuan Yange, how Duanmu Ye resisted Hedong Han Xifan, he believed that the two battlefield generals must have a proper way.
Two days later, Li Xuan returned to Dandong and reported to Yang Yue about sending troops!
Yang Yue sent the army to secretly transfer to Dongfang Anshi Prefecture, just wait quietly for Duanmu Ye to rectify the troops and horses, and when the news of the troops came, he led the troops to Pinglu and attacked from east to west.
With this, he went to Chang'an caravan, and the day after Li Xuan's return, he also returned from Chang'an.
Wen Renyu led the caravan leader Han Qi, did not dare to hesitate, and personally came to the Yan Wangfu to report to Yang Yue.
Bringing refined salt and spices to Chang'an, it is an item produced in Dandong, which is sold in Chang'an for the first time, whether it is welcomed by Chang'an nobles, whether there are rich benefits, all this, Yang Yue is particularly concerned.
Hearing Renyu, Han Qi arrived at Yanwang's Mansion. Led by the maid, go straight to the study.
Walking into the study, Wen Renyu, Han Qi bowed down to Yang Yue, Wen Renyu looked up at Yang Yue, who was busy with official business, and said, "Lord Wang, the caravan to Chang'an is back."
Hearing the sound, Yang Yue raised his head and stared at Wen Renyu, Han Qi asked, "Han Qi, how is it, what are the gains from this trip?"
Refined salt is scarce, one or two salts and one or two gold, the price is not low, Chang'an Xungui must be accepted, but the twenty catties of refined salt he carried, is it sold out?
Han Qi smiled, hurried forward, and bowed down to report: "Lord Wang, this trip has gained a lot, earning a lot of money and grain, and the twenty catties of refined salt and three boxes of spices brought to Chang'an caused a coax in Chang'an, and they were sold out on the same day.
When the villain returned, seven or eight famous shops in Chang'an deliberately looked for the villain, hoping to get refined salt and spices and the right to operate in Chang'an.
There are also many wealthy housekeepers who pay a deposit to the villain in advance, and the villain will be the first to provide them when he goes to Chang'an."
Call!
Yang Yue couldn't help but marvel, refined salt is expensive, and it is still priceless in the market, and he is worried about it.
"So, you get two hundred taels of gold for refined salt alone?" Yang Yue asked in surprise.
He vaguely remembered that Chang'an had a saying about rice and salt, and the price of rice in Chang'an was usually about fifty yuan, and almost more than ten yuan per pound of salt.
The price of refined salt sold in Dandong is 1,000 times that of the salt that is often circulated in the market.
With such a high price, only the wealthy and valuable dare to buy it.
However, according to Yang Yue's estimate, it is also rare and expensive, and occasionally try it, otherwise, eat three meals a day, unless the royal family, otherwise, the wealthy family is noble, the population is huge, and it may be difficult to sustain.
This seems to be a problem that affects the circulation of refined salt!
"That's right, refining salt and loud alone have earned five hundred taels of gold." Han Qi replied, and immediately said happily: "Counting the mink and ginseng I brought, almost seven hundred taels of gold, and removing the expenses along the way, the points at each level, and the cost, this trip, the net profit is six hundred taels of gold, which is simply a huge profit!"
Hearing this, Yang Yue smiled and said: "This is very good, Xiao Changshi has prepared two hundred catties of refined salt, ten boxes of spices, thirty jars of pure wine, and three hundred sheepskin blankets, two hundred wool blankets, and a few silk embroidery. This time I go to Chang'an, and the income will be as high as the sesame blossoming!"
This is only a caravan to Chang'an, carrying a small amount of goods, getting 600 taels of gold, counting the four caravans to Silla, Turkic, Khitan, and Jiangnan, a single trip, in exchange for thousands of taels of gold, is really a big gain.
After the report, Han Qi's smile gradually retracted, and he said with a serious expression: "Lord Wang, the villain has a saying, I don't know if to say it or not?"
"But it doesn't hurt to say it!" Yang Yue said boldly.
"Lord Wang, no matter refined salt, spices, wine, sheepskin blankets, etc., they are all high-end products, Chang'an Xungui is limited, we sell it in large quantities, and it will make Chang'an Xungui overstretched in the long run.
When the villain sold refined salt and spices in Chang'an, many wealthy businessmen and wealthy families were afraid of marrying high in refined salt, and they also sighed and called it again and again, salt is like drinking blood, and it is fatal!
However, the prince should be like a mirror, after several years of recuperation by the emperor, Chang'an and the Tang Dynasty, rich peasants, small landlords, are the real mainstays, the villain proposes, whether the prince also attaches importance to these people."
"That's right, Lord Wang, Weichen proposed, we should take into account the working public, choose to make small profits and quick turnover, supplemented by selling at a high price, the income will not decrease, and it is very stable, especially salt, wine, spices, are the daily needs of the people, if it penetrates Chang'an, and even all parts of the Tang Dynasty, these three items alone can give the prince back rich income." Wen Renyu also echoed.
Hearing Renyu and Han Qi's words, Yang Yue's inner worries were expressed, they were good at business and knew what the market needed.
"It's this king who is in a hurry and negligent!" Yang Yue bowed his head, and when he was silent for a while, he asked: "Wen Renyu, Han Qi, whether it is refined salt, spices, or fine wine, they are all divided into the lower three products, three products, adopt a hunger marketing strategy, the stable supply of products, the abundant supply of lower products, and expand to all provinces of the Tang Dynasty, and even Turkic, Silla, Tuyuhun and other regions, what do you think?"
Bucket rice and salt, and Chang'an ordinary water wine bucket wine 300 yuan, good wine, very expensive, bucket wine 10,000, equivalent to 10 taels of silver a bucket of wine.
The so-called bucket, but four catties, a lot of expenses, Tang people are good to drink. Good drinking, alcohol, this piece, there is a huge market.
"Lord Wang, Weichen proposes that in addition to maintaining high prices for fine refined salt, fine wine, and spices, which causes signs of short supply, the same price in the market should be maintained for the next grade." Wen Renyu reminded.
"That's right, as long as the demand expands, you will earn more money!" Han Qi agreed, and immediately, said in detail: "Take refined salt as an example, one or two salts, one or two gold, but there are very few real long-term buyers, if the price is reduced, there will be many rich people to buy, stable and effective, reduce the risk!"
"Your king is better at business, and this king only pays attention to how much grain he will bring to Dandong, and how to deal with it is up to you to decide." Yang Yue Dao.
"The prince is wise!" Wen Renyu, Han Qi said.
At this time, in front of Wen Renyu, he said: "Lord Wang, my sister has a letter, I hope to cooperate with the prince, Weichen does not dare to call the shots, and the prince still needs to decide!"
Yang Yue's rapid rise in Dandong, the sales of refined salt and spices are hot, and the Wenren people control the Sihai Chamber of Commerce, as the richest Chamber of Commerce in Datang, it is impossible not to see its hidden interests.
"In this matter, with the help of the Wenren caravan, the two sides will definitely be a win-win situation, but the Wenren family needs to personally send someone to Dandong," Yang Yue said.
Wen Renxian Song has grace with him, and when he does not hurt his own interests, Yang Yue naturally wants to cooperate with the other party.
It is rumored that the caravan of people will speed up the circulation of goods in Dandong, which is bound to expand sales and bring rich benefits.
"Yes, Wechen will inform my sister." Wen Ren Yu said first.
