Chapter 2938

Bai Yixiu nodded, "yes, a family can only auction the salt selling qualification of one state capital, and the salt guide you buy can only be sold in this area for a fixed period of time.

I'll take the capital as an analogy. No matter who the four qualifications are, you can bid. You compete with each other until no one continues to raise the price. Select the top four from the top to the bottom. Only those who get the qualification to sell salt can have the opportunity to buy salt.

The salt purchased by these four merchants must be sold in the capital and surrounding areas, and the price shall be set by the government. You four are not only responsible for selling salt, but also to maintain the stability of salt price in the capital. If someone hoards salt, he will not only lose his qualification to sell salt, but also go to jail.

In this way, although your profit is less, if you can sell more salt in this area, your profit will also increase. By the way, you used to buy salt from the salt farm for ten Wen a catty and sell it for twenty Wen a catty. Now the purchase price is five Wen, not more than ten Wen. The price of salt is lower, many people can afford salt, and you earn a lot.

Finally, the most important thing is that as long as you don't commit crimes, your qualification as a salt merchant can last a lifetime and be passed on to future generations. Think about it, if you leave gold, silver and jewelry to future generations and encounter filial piety, you can lose it all, but only having this qualification is equivalent to that your children and grandchildren can sell salt... "

Bai Yixiu's voice was gentle, word by word, and explained it to everyone.

When these people heard this, they liked it even more.

Lord Lin is really good at talking. Gold, silver and jewelry can be defeated, but as long as he is qualified to sell salt, his children and grandchildren can have money to spend.

Another man raised his hand, "Lord Lin, the small one also has questions."

Bai Yixiu nodded, "OK, you ask."

"If someone else is qualified to sell salt and doesn't want to do it, can they transfer it to others? Since it is lifelong, but some people don't have descendants, or they can't do it for other reasons, can they transfer it to others?" asked boss Wang, a tea business.

Bai Yixiu chuckled, "this qualification is given by the government. Since you don't want to do it, you naturally have to pass through the government. You can't sell it privately. The other three are not qualified to annex this qualification.

For this qualification, you can choose one with a high bid in this area. Of course, the premise is that this family must be innocent and have no crimes. The reason why it is divided into four is to prevent one from dominating and manipulating the local salt price. "

······

Bai Yixiu used most of the time to explain, with a gentle voice and everything.

These rich businessmen had a good impression of Bai Yixiu when they saw such an approachable official for the first time.

"There's no doubt now, so let's start the auction." Bai Yixiu whispered, "you can auction the salt selling qualification in the area at will. Don't be afraid even if you're unfamiliar. Now the imperial court will have a salt inspector. If you are obstructed or persecuted in selling salt locally, you can directly come to the salt inspector to complain.

Everyone sitting here knows that Lin is still the salt inspector. Even if his official position is adjusted in the future, he will continue to manage the salt administration. Since the imperial court sells its qualification, it will not ignore it. Come on, let's start auctioning Yunzhou now... "

Yunzhou is the lower capital of the Zhou Dynasty. Because the land is poor, although it has a large area, it has a small population.
