Chapter 273 One tael of gold and one tael of salt

It's the same place, the same stall, the same sign.

In the place where the dignitaries live in Chaoge City, setting up stalls is not allowed. Violators will be severely punished. But Yu Qi is obviously not included in this category.

A jar of refined salt was placed on the stall, with Yu Qi strokes, and several twisted big characters appeared in front of the stall: "Refined salt, one gram of refined salt, one gram of gold."

Is the salt eaten by nobles called salt?

That's called pomp and dignity.

Yu Qi is a topic in itself, a very controversial topic in Beijing.

From the dignitaries in the temple to the peddlers and pawns, everyone recognized this famous prodigal son of a big businessman.

Yu Qi's stall had just been opened when he saw a flood of passers-by surrounding him.

"I wonder what kind of treasure you are selling this time? Is it Kong Sheng's gold page or Kong Sheng's personal belongings?" A guy with a big head, wearing luxurious clothes, looked at Yu Qi arrogantly,

The words were full of sarcastic jokes.

"Who are you?" Yu Qi looked at the other person quietly.

"I am the third son of the Huang family, and so is Huang Tianhua!" The big-headed young man looked down at Yu Qi who was sitting on the chair.

"The third son of Wucheng King Huang Feihu?" Yu Qi was stunned: "He looks nothing like him."

King Wu Cheng had a handsome appearance, but the man in front of him was crooked and cracked. Yu Qi even suspected that this man was someone his mother stole outside.

"What did you say?" Huang Tianhua's face turned red when he heard this, and a trace of anger began to rise.

Growing up, his biggest concern was his appearance. Because his appearance was nothing like his father, Huang Feihu, this matter was much discussed.

"I'm saying: If you can afford it, buy it. If you can't afford it, get out of the way. Don't delay my business. Didn't you see what's written on the side? One tael of gold and one tael of refined salt!" Yu Qi pointed to the sign on the side.

There was a hint of disdain in his eyes, as if he looked down on the other party: "Looking at you, I'm afraid you are also a poor man without money. The title of Prince Wu's Palace is empty, but the inside is full of gold and jade, but the outside is full of filth."

The other party mocked and teased him, but Yu Qi didn't want to lose his smile. He was too lazy to argue with this guy. Don't look at the fact that a certain young man in the capital has a great reputation and a prominent background, but it's just a false name.

"Are you...are you crazy? One tael of gold and one tael of salt. Why don't you go and grab it? Haha, I want to see what kind of salt you have. You dare to give out one tael of gold and one tael of salt.

Price. If it is really a rare thing, then forget it. Otherwise, don’t blame me for smashing your stall today. It can be regarded as a relief for countless Confucian students!" Huang Tianhua stared at Yu Qi with his eyes, and then looked at Yu.

The jar in front of Qishen.

"No wonder you are seeking bad luck for me. It turns out you want to step on me to get the upper hand. Using me to befriend Confucianism is really a good plan!" Yu Qi looked at Huang Tianhua calmly: "If you dare to smash my stall, I will

Cut off your head and deliver it to your father personally."

Yu Qi's words were plain, but in that plainness, there was an unspeakable murderous intention.

Huang Tianhua's heart trembled when he heard this, but he forced himself to sneer, stretched out his hand to grab the jar in front of Yu Qi, and then tore off the sticker sealed in front of the jar.

The next moment everyone onlookers fell silent, staring intently at the jar.

"What is this?" Someone looked at the white and delicate particles like snowflakes and asked blankly.

Anyone looking at the jar in front of them would never think of it as the same thing as the yellow, sour salt.

In the human Kyushu, ordinary people eat salt mines, salt ore without any treatment. Nobles eat coarse salt.

As for this kind of refined salt and fine salt, it has never appeared in Dashang.

"Is this salt?" Huang Tianhua raised his head and looked at Yu Qi, showing an expression of "Are you kidding me?" His eyes were full of ridicule.

"You'll know if it's salt after you buy it," Yu Qi said calmly.

"Hahaha, it's simply ridiculous. Everyone knows that salt is yellow and white, and everything in front of you is as white as snowflakes. Do you think that I am a fool? Do you think that everyone is a fool?" The ridicule sounded, Huang Tianhua pointed out with a finger, and wanted to

Stick the salt together and put it in your mouth.

"Gah——"

The next moment, Huang Tianhua's smile froze on his face, and he suddenly opened his mouth and coughed out.

He had never tasted such a pure "salty" taste, and it was so salty that his tongue started to feel numb.

The corners of Yu Qi's mouth turned up, and a strange light appeared in his eyes: "How?"

"Even if this is refined salt, your price is too expensive. One tael of gold and one tael of salt. Why don't you go grab the money?" Huang Tianhu looked at Yu Qi.

"Such refined salt is the only one in the world. I'm not begging you to buy it. If you can't afford it, just open the way and buy it for those who can afford it later. Don't disturb my business!" Yu Qi disagreed!

.

As he spoke, Yu Qi took out the pots and pans from his sleeves, set up a fire on the spot, and began to cook the meat: "Everyone, I have one part fine salt and one part coarse salt here. The same salt is used to cook meat and barbecue.

You should know which one tastes better and which salt you should buy."

There are still many rich people in this world.

Barbeques and meats were cooked on site, and the streets instantly became lively. The dignitaries in the past gathered around and stood aside to watch the excitement.

"Come, drink the soup!" Yu Qi looked at Chong Wen who was standing not far away: "My lord, let's have a try, what is the difference between this meat boiled with refined salt and roasted meat with ordinary salt?"

Chong Wen passed by this place and saw Yu Qi playing tricks here again. He was curious and waited to see the fun, but who knew that Yu Qi actually pulled him over.

However, he didn't want to refute Yu Qi's face, so he took the barbecue and broth, tasted them briefly, and immediately noticed the difference.

After eating this refined salt, and then eating salty and sour salt, it’s strange that I can swallow it.

"Good salt! Good salt!" Chong Wen praised: "Give me a pound first."

Rich and wealthy!

There is no shortage of rich people in Chaoge, especially since all the goods from the world are gathered here, and the life of the rich is beyond expectations.

"Give me half a pound..."

"I'll give you two pounds..."

"Give me ten pounds..."

"..."

In the blink of an eye, a jar of refined salt was sold out, and hundreds of kilograms of gold were piled on Yu Qi's desk.

The golden color piled up into a mountain, blinding the eyes of everyone in the venue.

Even if there are countless powerful people in the capital, those hundreds of kilograms of gold are definitely not a small amount.

The most important thing is that this is a transaction with almost zero cost. It is simply a waste of money, a profit of hundreds of times.

Huang Tianhua held the half kilogram of refined salt, his eyes wandered around the golden mountain in front of Yu Qi, then turned and disappeared into the crowd.

Salt is on fire!

I dare not say anything else, at least it is popular in the world of Chaoge.

In just ten days, Yu Qi sold ten thousand catties of refined salt and obtained ten thousand catties of gold, totaling one hundred thousand taels.

One hundred thousand taels of gold!

This is simply a money-making tool.

The most important thing is that the deep palace also heard the news about the refined salt, and countless princes, kings and grandsons replaced the coarse salt in the palace with refined salt.

Refined salt is not only salt, but also a symbol.

A symbol of noble status!

Only nobles, and top nobles at that, could afford refined salt.

Yu Qi got rich, and then one hundred thousand taels of gold changed hands and was invested in the ruins of the Taoist ancestral court, and he continued to build the Taoist ancestral court.

The Taoist ancestral court is related to the legendary demon Chi You, and it is related to the legendary opportunities, so there is no reason why we should not be careful.

Wu family

"Today's food seems to be a little different." Wu Jing was eating the boiled meat, and suddenly stopped his chopsticks and looked at Caiping and Wang Changqin: "There is no sour and astringent sediment in the past. The taste is very pure and delicious, which makes people intoxicated. I don't know what the government hired

Which chef is so good at cooking?"

"My husband is busy with work all day long, but he doesn't know that a new kind of salt has appeared in Chaoge City, called refined salt. This newly cooked food is made from that refined salt! The chef is still the same chef, but the salt has been changed.

That’s it, the taste is completely different!” Wang Changqin said.

On the side, Caiping lowered her head and ate meat silently. Ever since her fifth wedding that day, she had become depressed and no longer looked like the eloquent girl she used to be.

"Refined salt?" Wu Jing was stunned. He had never heard the word refined salt before.

Wang Changqin placed a jar of refined salt in front of Wu Jing: "This is refined salt."

"Refined salt?" Wu Jing looked at the snow-white salt in front of him with a hint of disbelief. When did the salt become so exquisite?

Compared with the yellowed coarse salt in my memory, it is completely different.

He stretched out his finger, tapped it slowly, and then put it into his mouth. Wu Jing's color changed: "It is indeed salt. It's really incredible. I didn't expect that salt can be so delicate."

"Brother Jing, do you know how much this salt costs?" Wang Changqin said calmly.

"Ordinary coarse salt costs ten taels of silver per jar, but this refined salt costs at most fifty taels." Wu Jing closed the lid disapprovingly.

"One tael of white salt and one tael of gold!" Wang Changqin said word by word.

"What?" Wu Jing almost knocked the salt in his hand to the ground and said in a long voice: "One tael of white salt and one tael of gold. Could it be that you are robbing money?"

"You can't eat this refined salt. In a few years, my Wu family's great business will be bankrupted!" Wu Jing said with lingering fear.

"Hahaha, hahaha!" Wang Changqin laughed: "Brother Jing, do you know who made this salt?"

"The only thing that can exist is the eight hundred princes or the nobles of Chaoge. Ordinary people and rich merchants cannot make such items. Even if they can be made, the price will never be so exaggerated!" Wu Jing shook his head.

.

"Wrong! Big mistake!" Wang Changqin looked at Wu Jing: "This refined salt was made by Wu Ding."

"Is it him?" Wu Jing was stunned.

The two words "Wuding" are full of ups and downs in his heart.

"He is robbing money! Sooner or later there will be a big problem! This is cutting the knife on the body of the powerful and destroying himself. Only aristocratic families drink the blood of others, who dares to drink the blood of aristocratic families?" Wang Changqin said
