Chapter 286

~5 min read 902 words

A genius!

Duan Yu was surprised in his heart.

Before leaving, he found Jia Dong and handed over the work on white paper and snow salt to Jia Dong.

Jia Dong has a business mind.

It is not difficult to see from the marketing means of selling furs.

Use things to their fullest, and let people do their best.

Jia Dong was born to do business.

Before leaving, he gave Jia Dong some pointers, taught him the marketing and product packaging and management concepts of later generations, and let Jia Dong digest them slowly.

This guy... actually came up with food packaging!

Jia Dong said like he was offering a treasure: "My lord, what is wrapped inside is snow salt; one salt brick is equivalent to one jin of snow salt."

"This is according to the hint you gave me before."

"This snow salt cannot flow into the homes of ordinary people, so I followed the idea you gave me, created high-end products, and faced high-end society."

"Make the snow salt look like something they can't afford and is very expensive."

"After the first batch was transported to Jizhou, through the distribution of the Zhongshan Zhen clan, it was sent directly to the hands of those powerful families."

"At first, Zhen Jiang said it was too expensive, but the sales effect was the opposite; it was sold out in almost a few days."

"Now the Zhen clan is urging us to increase production every day."

Duan Yu twitched the corner of his mouth.

Thirty million coins.

Ten days.

Almost thirty million coins in ten days.

Of course, this is just the early stage; when the market reaches a certain saturation, when the salt in the homes is enough, this sale will be maintained at a relatively flat position.

But even so, Duan Yu was already very shocked.

The raw material price of salt is higher than that of white paper.

One shi of salt processed into snow salt can only leave eight-tenths.

Salt produced in Hedong is about eight hundred coins per shi.

Private salt trafficking is a serious crime.

But Duan Yu's kind is actually outside of private salt trafficking.

Because the snow salt he manufactures does not circulate in society, but only in the upper society.

To put it bluntly, it is small-scale circulation.

Besides, in today's world, local powerful families and wealthy merchants almost all privately sell salt and iron.

Otherwise, where did the huge wealth in the family come from?

The Zhongshan Zhen clan, the Xuzhou Mi clan, which one doesn't sell salt?

And his father-in-law Dong Zhuo is now the Administrator of Hedong Commandery.

Hedong Commandery is a major salt-producing commandery, and the salt used in Guanzhong, Bingzhou, and Liangzhou mainly comes from here, which is equivalent to opening another convenient door.

Ten days!

Thirty million coins!

It sounds like a lot.

In fact, it is not small at all.

Duan Yu tapped his index finger lightly on the table in front of him.

He certainly cannot keep all this money for himself.

Benefits must be shared equally.

Money is just a means.

Only when it is used can it play its role.

"You write it down," Duan Yu said.

Jia Dong nodded immediately and picked up the brush: "My lord, please speak."

"I estimate that the sales of the current ten days will be the stable amount for a month in the future."

"Take five million from the thirty million coins in profit from this snow salt every month and send it to my father-in-law."

Duan Yu said while tapping the table, and Jia Dong was busy recording.

Father-in-law Dong Zhuo must be bribed.

Although they are all one family, he is after all a son-in-law.

Still need to respect Dong Zhuo.

His father-in-law Dong Zhuo, as the Administrator of Hedong Commandery, cannot possibly not know about these small actions of his.

Therefore, he must be bribed.

Besides, where will this money sent out be spent in the future?

Most of it will probably return to his hands.

So five million is not much.

"Take another one million from it and send it to the residence of Li Ru, Li Wenyou, every month."

Li Ru.

The chief strategist under his father-in-law.

Actually, this money doesn't have to be sent.

Li Ru is a smart man, and he cannot fail to see the future development direction of the Dong Zhuo group.

Therefore, even if he doesn't send this money, Li Ru will still do what he should do.

But if this money is sent, many things that Li Ru shouldn't do, Li Ru will also do.

"Take out five hundred thousand coins a month and send it to Liu Wei, the Administrator of Taiyuan Commandery."

Jia Dong recorded them one by one without asking why.

This is what a smart person should do.

Duan Yu finished speaking.

On the other side, Zhen Jiang, dressed in a white dress as white as snow, also walked down from the second floor of the inn.

Seeing Zhen Jiang coming, Jia Dong stood up with the recorded things and came behind Duan Yu.

As soon as Zhen Jiang's figure appeared on the stairs leading to the first floor of the inn, she instantly attracted the attention of all the diners on the first floor.

Duan Yu smiled at Zhen Jiang who walked down the stairs and beckoned. ===== CHAPTER 288 =====
