Chapter 153 Fine Salt Cooperation
Zhang Zhiyi clenched his fists, wanting to fight.
"Qian Junjie, don't mess with me, I'm here for serious business!"
"Oh? You have nothing at home, so you come here to look for trouble?" Qian Junjie crossed his arms over his chest and refused to back down. The two of them often fought, and verbal abuse like this was the lightest of all.
At a time of tension.
Behind him, the door of Jiu Mansion was open.
The two looked at each other unconvincedly, walked towards Jiusu, and shouted at the same time.
"Miss Su'er."
“Master!”
Qian Junjie cursed, "Fuck! Miss Su'er, are you disgusting?"
Zhang Zhiyi said proudly, "None of your business. Miss Su'er and I have something important to do. Hurry up and get out of the way. Otherwise, you'll be thrown into jail."
"I'm so scared." Qian Junjie made a mean face. "If you were really capable, you would have taken me away long ago."
Jiusu rubbed her eyebrows and beckoned him to talk to her aside.
"How's the factory construction going?"
Qian Junjie said proudly, "Under my wise leadership, the construction period is getting closer and closer. It will be completed in about half a month. According to your design, it is divided into four production rooms with different directions, and a cellar has been dug. If you have time, go back and take a look. It is particularly majestic among the bungalows in Chenjia Village."
Jiusu nodded: "Well, I'll go back and take a look in a few days."
Qian Junjie warned: "This kid is really mean, don't play with him, or Jiang Jing will get jealous."
"Him?" Jiusu chuckled softly and said calmly, "You go over and supervise the work. County Magistrate Zhang is attracted by my lucrative position as a salt transport envoy and wants to get close to me. If I reject him too forcefully, it will be bad. So I can use Zhang Zhiyi to speed up the process."
In the carriage.
The two sat on both sides.
Zhang Zhiyi kept staring at her, and finally said, "Tsk tsk tsk, Miss Su'er is so pretty, even prettier than my mother."
"Well, then you can call me grandma." Jiusu said calmly.
Zhang Zhiyi's face darkened: "...That's not what I meant."
The first salt merchant they found was also named Zhang.
Jiusu didn't believe that there was such a coincidence, especially when she saw Zhang Zhiyi flirting with the salt merchant, she understood.
"I'd like a batch of kosher salt."
"You are a good-looking girl. If you marry into our Zhang family, you can have as much salt as you want." Boss Zhang smiled ambiguously at the two of them.
Jiusu sneered, stood up and left: "How much salt do you eat? Are you so idle?"
Zhang Zhiyi hurriedly caught up and asked angrily.
"You don't want to marry me?"
"I won't accept charity." Jiusu raised an eyebrow. "Oh, you two are one family? I thought that old man was just imagining things. Forget it, let's just let it go. Are there any other salt merchants?"
Zhang Zhiyi took her to several more houses.
"The price is too expensive, I don't want it."
"The price is too cheap, I don't dare to buy it."
"Yohoo, you've been like this for years, right?"
“…”
They were all rejected by women with various reasons.
Zhang Zhiyi no longer recognized the salt merchant. He collapsed and yelled, "What on earth do you want to do? You can't make it too expensive, and you can't make it too cheap. You're so picky. Do you even know how to make salt?"
Jiusu laid his cards on the table.
"Master Zhang, you are a tyrant and have raped women. Your behavior is extremely bad. Why do you think I would cooperate with you?"
"Are you kidding me!?" Zhang Zhiyi asked in disbelief, his eyes wide open in anger.
He, Master Zhang, was actually played by a woman.
Jiusu curled her lips, what a fool! Of course, she would use him to screen out Zhang Tu's people. She would not cooperate to avoid the Zhang family making trouble.
"Yeah, who told you to bully the little girl? I'm doing justice for you."
Next, she will go find the real salt merchant.
Zhang Zhiyi stood in the street for a long time. It started to rain and he came to his senses from being soaked and cold. By then, he had been helped back to the county magistrate by a servant.
Seeing his father, he cursed.
"She's a bitch! She's playing with our father-son relationship! Dad, kill her!"
"I don't have that much ability." County Magistrate Zhang had thought of this outcome, but he didn't expect Jiusu to be so ungrateful. He twirled his teacup with a sinister and vicious smile, "But Prince Chang does."
Zhang Zhiyi clenched his fist and slammed it on the table.
"Right! Tell Prince Chang that Jiusu is causing trouble in his territory, and have Prince Chang kill her!"
Magistrate Zhang patted his son's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, Jiusu is a hot commodity. Prince Chang likes women who are both strong-willed and useful."
Since you have already offended King Chang's faction.
Then take the initiative to get closer to the prince.
Boss Qiu turned out to be the prince's father-in-law. Jiusu learned from him about a salt merchant with a good reputation. It took her half an hour to drive there. From a distance, she looked across the lake.
"So familiar."
"That seems to be Chenjia Village." Zitan said, "Miss, that seems to be your factory."
Jiusu suddenly realized: "So we went in a circle. It would be much faster to go straight by boat."
With this idea.
She became even more determined to take over the salt field.
Zitan went to knock on the door, handed over the letter of introduction from Master Qiu, and also reported her own name. Seeing the servant hurried to report, she also experienced being a maidservant around the master.
However, her master is a woman. Thinking of this, the corners of her mouth curled up and she became even happier.
Miss, you are so amazing! The most amazing person in the world!
Soon, the eldest son of the Yu family came in a hurry. When he saw the person coming, it was a young girl, suspicion appeared in his eyes, but he thought of the source of the letter of introduction and the recent rumors.
He believed it.
Kneeling on the ground, "I greet you, Lord Jiu."
"Boss Yu, you don't have to be polite. I'm just an ordinary woman. I feel uncomfortable being addressed as sir or commoner." Jiusuxu gave him a hand, and the two of them walked into the hall one after the other and were warmly received.
Yu Da apologized: "Please take a seat. I wonder why you, sir, are looking for me... Oh, no, is there something important you want to talk to me about?"
Jiusu took out a small bottle of fine salt and Zitan handed it over carefully.
Yu Da took it, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
"Is this fine salt?"
"This is a small gift for Boss Yu." Jiusu skimmed off the foam on the teacup and asked tentatively, "I wonder if you would be interested in working with me on something that would benefit the country and the people."
Yu Da knew what he was doing: "But I only know how to make coarse salt."
Jiusu smiled and said, "I know how to make fine salt."
"Hahaha."
When she heard a hearty laugh, she knew that this was going to work. Sure enough, the next second, Yu Dabian stood up and looked seriously at the woman sitting in the main seat.
He said, "Well, then I will take advantage of Miss Jiu's help and make a great contribution."
"But I need to inform Boss Yu in advance that County Magistrate Zhang will cause great obstacles, so you must be extremely careful." Jiusu warned.
Yu Dadao: "I've got that. To put it more politely, the road to success is always bumpy, and some bloodshed is inevitable, but we will definitely succeed."
Jiusu's blood suddenly boiled.
"Okay! I can give you more of the profit from salt production. I hope Boss Yu can withstand the pressure. Our fine salt will benefit the people and the country, and even the physical strength of the soldiers on the border will be greatly improved.
This is the detailed process for making crude salt. Boss Yu comes from a salt-making family, so he understood it immediately."
