They say your illegitimate child is worthless, yet you rebel with seven wives?

"What did you say?!"

Upon hearing Su Luo's request, Ye Changfeng immediately exclaimed in shock: "Distribute all this fine salt tonight?! Do you know what that means?!"

Su Luo said calmly, "Young Master Ye, don't rush, take a look at this first."

He took out the snowflake salt and his transaction agreement with the Sinan Trading Company, and said, "I have an elder brother who has cooperated with the Sinan Trading Company and sold seven thousand catties of snowflake salt."

Ye Changfeng took the snowflake salt and looked at it. He wasn't so nervous. He frowned slightly and said, "This snowflake salt... is clearly of the quality of tribute salt."

"But it can't compare to our snow from the sky... oh no, I mean, what you call refined salt!"

"So, we have absolutely nothing to worry about!"

Su Luo said, "I am not worried about the Sinan Trading Company, nor am I worried about what impact their release of Snowflake Salt will have on us."

“However, as you said yourself, Young Master Ye… the quality of our salt is much better than theirs.”

"If that's the case, then why should I let them go?!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Changfeng's body trembled, and he finally understood.

If this refined salt could enter the market and catch the eye of high-ranking officials and dignitaries ahead of time, then snowflake salt would have no place to stand!

He gave Su Luo a deep look and immediately realized that this man and his brother probably didn't get along either!

No, it's not just that we don't get along!

He examined the quality of the snowflake salt and was certain that if this snowflake salt were to appear on the market, it would definitely trigger a buying frenzy!

Seven thousand catties of snowflake salt must have a high cost!

But if the fine salt is thrown out first, then... the other side probably won't have any hope at all!

This is an attempt to kill the other party!

This is... a story of brothers killing each other!

For a moment, Ye Changfeng was moved and thought of himself, and fell silent.

"not enough!"

Su Luo waited a while before hearing Ye Changfeng's voice: "If you really want to completely ruin your...brother, two thousand catties of refined salt is not enough!"

"It's two thousand jin now, but it won't be tomorrow!"

Su Luo said, "It's a thousand catties every day!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Changfeng was immediately stunned, his eyes widened, and his breathing became rapid.

If there were only two thousand catties of refined salt, it would be sold out immediately, making it impossible to achieve the goal of targeting the Sinan Trading Company.

But what if it's 1,000 kilograms a day!

It's not just Sinan Trading Company, not just Yunhai Town, and not even just Linshui County!

With the capabilities of the Tianyun Chamber of Commerce, they are more than capable of selling this fine salt throughout Qingzhou, and it's not impossible for them to go even further...

"it is good!"

Ye Changfeng had already forgotten about the salt-making method and agreed without hesitation.

After all, if the issue of salt production methods were raised rashly, it might cause dissatisfaction on the other side.

But if we get along well, and can really provide a thousand catties of refined salt every day as Su Luo said, then what is there to worry about?!

Even if we were to use salt-making methods, nothing beats the directness of producing a thousand catties of refined salt every day!

Furthermore, Su Luo's words implied that she came from a powerful family and possessed both snowflake salt and refined salt...

So, instead of offending the other party, why not cooperate directly!

Hearing Ye Changfeng agree so readily, Su Luo smiled:

"Of course, the premise is that you must agree to two requests, Young Master Ye. One is that you must target the Snowflake Salt issued by the Sinan Trading Company!"

"And another one... this snowflake salt, my brother sold it to the Sinan Trading Company for 7,000 catties and 40,000 taels!"

“I don’t want my fine salt to be cheaper than his. Just as you said, Young Master Ye, this fine salt… is as rare as snow from the sky, it’s not a cheap thing!”

Ye Changfeng nodded, "Of course!"

"However... if it's a thousand catties a day, even my Tianyun Chamber of Commerce cannot provide cash every single day!"

Su Luo said, "No need for cash. I want to buy some things, which can be exchanged directly from the silver in the transaction..."

"Debt settlement with goods!"

"In addition, subsequent settlements can be made every three days, or even every seven days..."

The conditions offered by Su Luo were quite generous.

On the one hand, with the 40,000 taels of silver from the Sinan Trading Company, he was not short of cash for the time being.

It would be better to switch to resources, since our future development, whether it's continuing to develop the salt mines, stationing troops, or building Xiaoyun Village, all require a lot of resources.

On the other hand, Su Luo really wanted to destroy the Sinan Trading Company!

Perhaps it was a surprise for Marquis Su Changsheng and the eldest son of the Marquis's mansion!

Two years and eight thousand taels? Is that all the money you're talking about?!

We must make the Sinan Trading Company lose 40,000 taels of silver in a single day!

And they also want to turn the joyous occasion of the 20th birthday of Su Xuan, the eldest son of the Marquis's family, into a tragedy!

Su Luo muttered to himself, "I'm still too weak!"

If we could develop faster, and directly lead our men to Si Nan Hou, we might even see him filled with regret!

However, that day is not far off, so consider tomorrow's matter as interest!

Ye Changfeng breathed a sigh of relief. According to the price offered by Sinan Trading Company, the fine salt was at least one pound and five taels of silver!

A thousand catties a day means a daily expenditure of five thousand taels!

The Tianyun Chamber of Commerce can still produce results in ten days to half a month, but any longer and they'll have to report to the Tianyun Chamber of Commerce in Linshui County or Qingzhou...

That's equivalent to Ye Changfeng needing to call for help from above!

This is something Ye Changfeng is unwilling to accept. Since Su Luo is willing to propose this cooperation plan, he is naturally willing to accept it!

In the end, the two settled on a final price for the fine salt... no, from then on it would be called "Heavenly Snow"... at six taels of silver per catty.

In other words, Su Luo brought two thousand catties of snow from the sky, which ultimately brought twelve thousand taels of silver.

However, Su Luo did not take the money and leave, but instead asked the Tianyun Chamber of Commerce to help him purchase many things.

On one hand, there were some farm tools, and on the other hand, there were some iron tools. The former was fine, but the latter was not cheap in this era.

Picking out any items, like hammers and hoes, would cost several taels of silver each. Of course, Su Luo wasn't just buying one, but hundreds.

That would require hundreds or even thousands of taels.

In addition, Qi Su Luo also purchased large quantities of grain, eggs, and the like. The Tianyun Chamber of Commerce's warehouse was not enough, and Ye Changfeng even promised to help with the purchase!

Therefore, twelve thousand taels of silver have been wasted here!

Even Su Luo couldn't help but sigh, "Making money is like working yourself to the bone, but spending it is like water flowing away..."

Ye Changfeng patted him on the shoulder and said, "Isn't this reality?"

Then, Zhang Daqiang led his men to transport another thousand catties of refined salt from Xiaoyun Village.

Su Luo looked at Ye Changfeng, "Hmm, another six thousand taels earned!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Changfeng's lips twitched.

Thinking that he had earned those six thousand taels himself, he felt an urge to chop Su Luo with a knife.

……

at the same time.

When Su Changsheng, the Marquis of Sinan, received Tan Xing, his expression immediately darkened upon hearing that Steward Cui had died along with ten of the Marquis's personal guards.

However, when he heard that Tan Xing had reached an agreement with a southern merchant to secure a stable supply route for snowflake salt, his anger subsided immediately.

"What kind of snowflake salt is so expensive? Bring it here and let me see it."

Hearing Su Changsheng's words, Tan Xing breathed a sigh of relief and immediately presented the prepared snowflake salt.

His guess was right. As long as there was enough profit, Su Changsheng didn't care about Manager Cui's life or death.

"Hmm? This snow salt..."

After examining the snowflake salt closely, Su Changsheng was somewhat surprised: "The quality is quite extraordinary; even tribute salt is only this good!"

"Seven thousand catties forty thousand taels, that's not expensive... You really reached an agreement with them?!"

Tan Xing immediately bowed, "Absolutely true!"

"That's right! If that's the case, then this one deal alone could earn more than ten thousand taels of silver a month!"

Su Changsheng nodded and then asked, "Do you know who the other party is? What is their background?"

Just then, footsteps sounded outside. Tan Xing was about to answer when a figure caught Su Changsheng's eye.

It was a figure dressed in a moon-white scholar's robe, handsome and extraordinary, with bright and piercing eyes.

"Father!"

Upon seeing Su Changsheng, the other person disregarded Tan Xing's presence and immediately rushed forward, exclaiming, "Father, I've missed you so much!"

Tan Xing immediately bowed and said, "Young Master!"

Su Changsheng immediately stood up and said with a smile, "You kid, you're already twenty years old and still so impulsive..."

"However, I miss you too!"

"Let your father see you... Sigh, you've lost a lot of weight and look haggard!"

Su Changsheng looked genuinely distressed: "Sigh, it must be the matter in Feixia Town that's keeping you so busy!"

"Didn't I ask Lao Xu to help you?"

Yes, as the eldest son of the Marquis's family, Su Xuan's fiefdom is not a village, but a town!

Moreover, it is the most prosperous town under Feiyun City, much more prosperous than Yunhai Town!

Compared to Su Luo's Xiaoyun Village, it's like heaven and earth; Xiaoyun Village simply can't compare to Feixia Town!

However, if Su Changsheng were to go to Feixia Town to celebrate Su Xuan's birthday, it would be too conspicuous and a bit too biased!

That's why he decided to come to Yunhai Town to celebrate with Su Xuan!

Su Xuan immediately said, "Father, this is what I should do. I am your eldest son. If I don't perform well, wouldn't I be embarrassing you?!"

"Good good..."

Su Changsheng smiled and said, "He truly is my son!"

Then, as if he had just thought of something, a flash of annoyance crossed his eyes. "Hmph! If only all my sons were like you!"

A cold glint flashed in Su Xuan's eyes as he said, "Father, are you worried about...my younger brother Su Luo?!"

"My younger brother grew up in the countryside, so it's normal for him to be a little immature. Father, don't worry... With Mother around, she'll definitely be able to teach him well!"

Upon hearing this, Su Changsheng nodded, "I hope so. Let's not talk about him anymore; he's too unlucky. If I could, I truly wish I didn't have this son..."

"Xuan'er, tomorrow is your twentieth birthday. Your mother is busy with matters at the Marquis's mansion and will not be able to come. This time, only your father can celebrate with you."

"Tell me, what do you want?!"

Su Xuan said, "I am already overjoyed that Father was willing to come in person! How could I dare to ask for anything more?!"

"Hey, it's your twentieth birthday, how can you not want anything?"

Su Changsheng thought for a moment and looked at Tan Xing: "I've got it. You... are you called Tan Xing? You can connect the supply of the snowflake salt you mentioned with the eldest young master."

"From now on, you will be fully responsible for the Snowflake Salt trade route, but you can hand over all the profits to the eldest son!"

Upon hearing this, Tan Xing was taken aback.

In other words, all profits from the future sale of snowflake salt will belong entirely to Su Xuan.
