Feng Xing

It was Lao Zhangtou's turn that he discovered that the procedures for handling salt were not complicated.

He only needs to provide household registration or road guide as a proof, and the Yanyun branch will issue a passport.This passport will indicate the seller's name, age, domicile, and appearance. After paying the Yankee ticket at Yamen, it will be registered for future reference.

This passport is valid for three years, that is, within three years, if he sells salt again, he only needs to come to the salt transportation branch office to pay the salt class ticket, and he can use the ticket to go to the salt farm to extract salt.

The salt ticket is in triplicate, one is handed over to the Yanyun Division, one is retained and the other is retained by the seller.After going to the salt farm to pick up salt, the salt farm ambassador will indicate the parameters on the salt ticket, ship them to the county, and stamp them.Afterwards, during the transportation and sale, salt and ticket shall not be separated. If there is any separation, it shall be treated as private salt.

When the seller arrives at the lead-in place, he/she needs to go to the designated salt administration bureau with a ticket to submit it for submission and submit the record to the salt transportation department for verification.

In this way, even if this whole set of procedures is completed, it is much simpler than what Zhang Zhangtou thought.

Like many people, Lao Zhangtou is also concerned about the checkpoints along the road. Whether it is easy to pass through the customs has been solved by the Yanyun branch.

Sampling is still done, but they only need to check the ticket, photo and salt bag for weight.Regarding this point, the Haizhou branch also made a capital investment this time. Before the salt came out, it was a big package. When the commission was overhauled, the contract would be changed. The cost of the change would be paid by the salt merchant, and the outsourcing belt would be a bag.

Regardless of the loss when changing the package, the freight operator must pay a large sum of money, and this kind of packaging is very easy to imitate. The weight is not fixed. Each time the dam is crossed, it must be re-weighed by the supervision department, wasting manpower and material resources.This time the Haizhou branch directly replaced the salt package with paper, and when the salt came out, it was completely packaged.

This kind of packaging is waterproof and moisture-proof, it is not easy to imitate, and it has a unified weight, which is five pounds, ten pounds, and twenty pounds. There is no need to weigh it when crossing the dam. This is the idea that Feng Sheng took great care of.If this packaging can be promoted, it is also beneficial to crack down on illicit salt. Just by identifying the packaging, you can recognize whether it is private salt or official salt.

Therefore, the card must be passed, but compared with the past, it has simplified a lot of processes.Moreover, the salt classes and miscellaneous items that the merchants have to deal with have already been paid as early as the Yanwu government gate. You only need to show the salt ticket and passport to clear the customs card.

No matter how clearly the office secretary of the Haizhou Branch explains, everything still has to be experienced in person, people will believe that now only time and facts can prove that the Huaibei salt reform is effective.

...

In order to ensure that there is no chaos in the middle, Feng Sheng also sent Tong Baihu and other servants to go out.

No need for them to do any work, just choose one person to sit at each level, and perform the role of supervision.Jin Yiwei was the emperor's own army, and he gave those who had ten guts, and they did not dare to ignore the above order and make it difficult for the merchants who had passed the pass.

Everyone is working hard, and with the passage of time, more and more small businessmen are heading to Haizhou.

Many of them only witnessed others earning money before seeing their friends. This matter was also blamed on the former Meng businessman.

The transaction was too rushed, and the market and price were not paid much attention, so the transaction was hurried.Later, several small merchants got the salt back and sold it without going out of Yangzhou.This implies a business opportunity, many people do not know, know that people are also secret.

Without him, it is related to the price of salt.

The salt from Huaibei came out of the salt field to Yangzhou, because it saved the change of dealers and many checkpoints, and had the effect of the New Deal. The price of salt was very low.After all kinds of harsh tax and miscellaneous taxes, plus all kinds of manpower and material resources, the cost is only two-to-one.

But it is also a kind of salt. The salt from Huainan also passes through various checkpoints to the Tongyang Canal outside Yangzhou City, and the cost is nearly four or two.

In other words, Huaibei salt is nearly half cheaper than Huainan salt.

What is the meaning of this, I am afraid as long as a businessman with a little common sense can know.Official salt is unsalable because the price of salt is too high, so many people would rather risk taking private salt instead of selling official salt. Now Huaibei salt is so cheap that it can sell Huaibei salt rather than trying to sell private salt.

Those big salt merchants are still sitting, some small salt merchants are like cats smelling fishy smells, swarming up.Fearing that he would come out to offend others, he ordered people to search the market in private. The cost of Huaibei Yanlian salt with a ticket is only two or two, and they can earn income as long as they do not exceed three or two.

Therefore, some small merchants obtained salt from Huaibei and sold out without going out of Yangzhou.This business can really be done, big business makes big business, small business makes small business, so there are people who come and go between Haizhou and Yangzhou, and only do business in this way.

Knowing that business opportunities are fleeting, it is also clear that this kind of business does not last long. In order to make as many cases as possible, many small businessmen are rushing to sleep day and night, and they are ordered to wait in line at the office of the Haizhou branch office.Because as Huaibei salt gradually became famous for its good quality and low price, more and more people flocked to Haizhou. Fang Fengsheng said before that I am afraid that there is not enough place for this task.

Today, the Haimen branch government office in Banpu Town is considered to be a scene, and many people lined up outside the door.Zou Yunjuan and Feng Sheng came forward to discuss with the local government, and opened a few places from the town to build warehouses in the saltworks.

In addition to Fengsheng’s salt drying plant, three other salt farms are currently under reconstruction. Everything is flourishing and developing in a good direction, just like the flowers blooming from the cracks of the stone road. Vitality.

Where there is sunlight, there will naturally be shadows, although the amount of salt produced in Huaibei is less, compared with Huainan, one died of waterlogging and the other died of drought.But drought can change into drought, and there are now major changes. There are more than one person who lost their jobs. These little servants were unable to resist the orders of their immediate divisions, nor did they dare to violate their missions. This does not mean that they did not rely on the mountain.

There is usually no filial piety. If something goes wrong, you will naturally want to find a backer. Just look for one, and the more you look up, the fewer people will sit.

Naturally, it is necessary to find Fan Jinchuan, the chief culprit, but Fan Jinchuan also said that the court was in a hurry to reform the salt administration. This is the top priority, but it is a big matter, and he dare not act arbitrarily. Of it.

Is this wrong?

There is nothing wrong with this, but it is wrong to move someone else's money bag!

Various ingenious names and plausible enthusiasm and turbulence arrived, and Fan Jinchuan's stunned donkey's temper was also reflected.No matter how clever your tongue is, I just hold my own reason and never listen.

His impeachment and impeachment impeached him all over the sky, and there were daily discussions about the Lianghuai Salt Administration in Chaotang. The deliberations were nothing less than Fan Jinchuan's boldness and nonsense.

Since Emperor Jianping Jian intends to move the salt administration of the two Huaihei, it is certainly not something that can be controlled by just a few words.

He was also very satisfied with Fan Jinchuan's method of doing things. He was arrogant and restless. He was down-to-earth and knew that Huaibei was chosen as the breakthrough point.If Huainan is moved as soon as it comes up, I am afraid that it will not be such a lukewarm situation in Chaotang. At that time, I am afraid that Jianping Emperor may not be able to resist the pressure.

Since it is a try, try it first.

If the Emperor Jianping said, then that would be the case.

Located on the outskirts of Yangzhou, there is a very large garden called Jiangyuan.

As long as they are locals in Yangzhou, they all know that this garden is the garden of the Jiang family.

And this Jiang family is also the top ten salt merchants.

The classification of salt merchants is extremely complicated. There are field merchants, dam merchants, shipping merchants, bulk merchants, nest merchants, and general merchants. The general merchants have the most rights. All public and private floating fees and apportionments are allocated by them, and they are partly official and partly commercial.

The Jiang family is the hereditary general, and has close contacts with the imperial court.The Jiang family's backing is not a certain official, a certain force, but the present.

As early as several generations of the Jiang family, the owner of the Jiang family had the name of'making friends with the commoner', and since then every time the emperor went to Jiangnan, most of them were picked up by the Jiang family.Not to mention the imperial court. Whenever there is something wrong, the Jiang family actively raised funds for the disaster relief bank and military expenses for the imperial court. The family heads of the Jiang family have held the official title of the imperial court, which is extremely glorious.

But everything is good and bad, and there is prosperity and decline, this is not coming.

Jiang Fu had a hunch that in recent years, the two Huaihuai administrations were one after another, and sooner or later, something was going to happen. When the emperor Jianping really started, he calmed down.Because of this, when Fan Jinchuan first arrived at the Yanyun Division Office, other salt merchants were extremely anxious, but he was calm.

But when others were sitting and watching Huaibei Salt, he was anxious instead.Because no one knows better than him, the position of the Jiang family general manager is based on what.

The Jiang family does not need to sell or sell salt every year, and can only get rich by relying on the position of the general manager, because his supervisor is in charge of tuition, floating fees, and subsidies.If the implementation of the Huaibei New Deal is smooth and involves Huainan, who is the general manager of the Jiang family?

To this end, he specially recruited all his salt merchants to come to Jiangyuan to discuss.

In the Jiangyuan, the flower hall on the side of a pond, where the furniture should be fine rosewood of one inch and one gold, the decoration is also extremely luxurious, but it still has a low-key atmosphere.

The first person to sit was Jiang Fu, with five seats underneath, a total of ten seats.

These ten seats have been unchanged for many years, so these ten people, no matter what the geometry of the salt merchants in the two Huaihe areas, are nothing more than the forces attached to the ten people in the seat.

Among the ten people present, who are not stomping their feet, Yangzhou will shake their existence.

However, today's discussion started with the attack on Huang Jinfu.Unlike those small businessmen, Jin Fu's behavior is still eye-catching even in a low-key manner, which doesn't let Jiang Fu know about Jin Fu and Huaibei's eyebrows.

In this regard, Huang Jinfu began to deny it, and then pushed it to the following people. Seeing that Jiang Fu Jin seems to be using him to kill chickens and monkeys, he also broke the jar.

Anyway, he knew that his golden blessing was a dead face, and he didn't care about his face.

"Then, according to the meaning of Uncle Jiang, we don't make any money that we send to us? If we don't make any money, where can we get the money to pay you the floating fees and amortization?"

Jiang Fu is more than ten years older than Huang Jinfu, but this year is only fifty years old, and he can't get to the point where he is called uncle.However, this uncle is not his uncle, but honorific.All the Jiang family owners have been called uncles by the salt merchants below, and the ones below are all uncles. The one at the top is naturally the uncle.

"As you said, you paid me the floating fees and allowances?" Jiang Fu's long, thin face, full of book spirits, quite a bit of Confucian business, but at this time was blessed with gold blessing straight.

"I didn't say that, I just said that, that's what I meant. Uncle Jiang knew that my mouth was unobstructed, don't pick that word."

"I think you are quite dissatisfied. These of us have always been in the same affair, and we are in the same direction. Now you are secretly transporting salt from Huaibei, and you didn't say hello to us. Isn't it wrong?"

Others whispered and nodded, saying that Jin Fu was improper.Huang Jinfu was also in a hurry, and he simply broke the jar: "Then when I was wrong, the uncle just said what to do?"

"Just punish him when he opens the forum next year, he gives up one course of salt to the rest of us," someone suggested.This is the Chen family owner who is known as an iron rooster. This person is so stingy and comparable to the baht. It is amazing. It is impossible to guess whether the bed under his house is covered with silver. He spends every day sleeping on the silver.

"Old man surnamed Chen, don't overdo it. You plucked your hair and pulled it on my head?" Huang Jinfu said angrily.

Jiang Fu said: "Jiang feels that this proposal is good, do you think?" The question is to ask you, actually looking at the golden blessing, obviously taking him to kill chickens and monkeys.

Huang Jinfu was very angry and stood up and said, "How do you want to drop it, I really think that your broken program is still useful? Just this year's floating fees and compensation for I don't have money to pay, you share it yourself, I will not accompany you! "

After he finished speaking, he was gone, and his attitude was so strong that everyone froze on the spot.
