Chapter 2153： Win-win (in)

"Win-win?"

The civil and military officials looked at each other, not knowing the win-win method of this move?

Of course, at this time when Chen Fan is invincible, naturally no one dared to stand up and oppose it.

Everyone thinks, let's listen first, what a win-win method is, and then make a decision!

Seeing no one was speaking, Chen Fan smiled slightly, and after a pause, continued: "In the past few days, I have checked a lot of files on Chen's revenue, financial expenditure and surplus."

"I found a very strange thing."

After a slight glance at Weng Yan, the other party immediately met and motioned to a group of little eunuchs to lift up the mountain of files.

"You can also take a look with me. If there is anything wrong with what I say next, I hope to stand up and give pointers."

Taking out a dossier at will, Chen Fan wore a smile on his face.

"Since ancient times, the salt and iron with the highest income have been firmly controlled by the royal family. These two industries can be said to be the most profitable in the world. But why I looked through the dossier and found that the salt and iron alone are used every year. Loss?"

"Even from time to time, the national treasury still needs to spend spirit stones to fill vacancies. Zhu Qing said, is this normal?"

Chen Fan's words made many people in the audience unable to stand up, and they felt cold sweat dripping down their backs.

Salt to iron is indeed the two most profitable industries in the world.

Although monks reach a certain level, most of them can stop eating the fireworks, but the appetite is absolutely impossible to stop, otherwise so many restaurants in the world will not be closed.

And as long as you want to satisfy your appetite, salt is a necessity!

There is also iron. Here we do not only refer to ironware. Dachen has always stipulated that any metal produced in the world belongs to the state, and no one can hide it privately.

Generally speaking, the metals produced in the mines will be agreed to be received in local government treasury, and then sold to individuals or businesses for profit.

This kind of industry, no matter how you look at it, is profitable without losing money.

You know, there are countless people in Dachen!

So many people need to use weapons, and weapons need to be replaced when they wear out.

How much profit is hidden in this? It's hard to imagine.

But not everyone is like Chen Fan, able to refine weapons of pseudo-ancestral treasure quality like the Birth Death Sword with their own hands.

Generally speaking, the weapons used by ordinary people are forged by local master craftsmen.

The metal for refining is naturally purchased from various sources.

The end of these countless channels is Dachen's imperial merchant!

Over the years, even at the time of Shenzong, the salt and iron two items have already shown a declining trend. When Chen Yi is here, he has been losing money for almost eight or nine years.

It is good to catch up with one or two years, but it is just enough.

So what happened in these two industries that caused such profitable industries to lose money year after year?

Chen Fan's smile gradually deepened, and those eyes that seemed to be able to perceive people's hearts seemed to be constantly looking at it.

At this moment, none of the veterans dared to look at Chen Fan's gaze, and lowered their heads unconsciously.

There are indeed countless benefits hidden in the salt and iron.

But the water inside is too deep.

There are officials from various places, wealthy merchants, and important ministers like them.

Layers of exploitation, everyone wants to profit from it, which was originally something that everyone tacitly knew.

But today, Chen Fan actually took it to the table to say, is it intentional to rectify it?

This is a bad signal. If Chen Fan is really determined to argue, I am afraid that everyone on the scene will not be able to escape the relationship.

If the former Chen Yi suddenly mentioned this matter, now the court will start fighting.

Countless self-proclaimed loyal veterans will one by one remonstrate with death, desperately trying to cover up this big hole.

But now, the person in power is Chen Fan.

He holds the most powerful power of Da Chen, who is allowed to live and whoever is to die.

May I ask at this moment, who dares to stand up with a wispy tiger beard?

There is just one thing that everyone does not understand. Chen Fan has always been very mature and hot. Why is he so irrational in this matter?

You should know that the salt and iron matter involves too many areas and affects the whole body. If you don't have a ten or eight-year layout, you can only harm yourself and cause damage to the enemy by 1,000 and 800.

But now, Da Chen can't stand up to such turmoil.

Doesn't Chen Fan understand this truth?
