    Lin Qing touched his chest. In order to prevent it from being stolen or accidentally dropped, Lin Qing specially asked Wang Yan to sew a small pocket in his underwear, put the salt in it, and sew it to death with thread. When he arrived in Jinling  Before, he didn't intend to use Yanyin. Anyway, besides Yanyin, he also brought some money in his luggage, which was enough for the journey.

    As for Yanyin, he plans to use it in Jinling. After all, Jinling is the capital, and the prices are extremely expensive. Without enough money, it is difficult to survive.

    "By the way, brother, if you want to exchange this 10,000 catties of salt quotations, how much can you exchange for silver?" Although Lin Qing knew how much his father bought salt quotations from the salt farm, he had never sold salt quotations.  Salt merchants are extremely precious, and it can be said that they are the lifeblood of salt merchants. Salt merchants only desperately buy Yanyin, but rarely sell Yanyin.

    If he hadn't gone to the scientific research this time, it was related to the fate of the entire Lin family. His father and two uncles would not have gritted their teeth and drawn a small amount of salt from the salt bank to him. You must know that when he and his elder brother separated  But Father Lin didn't even dare to move the salt horn, let alone divide the salt.

    Lin Ze made some calculations and said, "In Jinling, it should be easy to sell this ten thousand jin of salt for thousands of taels of silver."

    "So valuable?" Lin Qing said in surprise: "Didn't the imperial court stipulate that 300 catties of salt is a quotation, and a quotation costs six cents and four cents in silver, which is called "woben".  Two. That is, 300 catties of salt, a total of six taels of silver four li?"

    Lin Ze held his forehead, sighed and said, "Little brother, I'm really glad that my father didn't pass on the salt merchant to you. Otherwise, you would have ruined the entire Lin family in a year. The court really stipulated that 300 catties of salt should be sold for six taels of six."  The money is four miles, but actually, do you think you have more than six taels of silver, and the salt farm can give you a salt quotation? You know how much daddy spends every year just to manage the saltworks. You know that in order to buy a salt quotation,  How much do you need to pay the saltworks?

    My dad and I calculated that a piece of 300 catties of salt, without more than ten taels of silver, would not be able to pay for the saltworks.

    Moreover, the salt produced by the two major salt farms in Huaibei and Huainan is innumerable every year, so the number of Yanyin is also certain. Although the imperial court divides it into ten pieces, the salt in each piece is actually not rich, and Yanyin is naturally not rich.  The salt in the hands of a salt merchant is just enough. You didn¡¯t see that your father personally supervised the work every year when the salt was released, and you are afraid that there will be less time to transport the salt. Not only will there be a salt shortage, but you will also be blamed by the court.

    Therefore, no salt merchant has ever had too much of Yanyin. Once Yanyin appears on the market, salt merchants will buy it at a high price.  It can be worth hundreds of taels.  The salt shortage in central Sichuan is no longer a year or two.

    Of course, you don¡¯t have to worry about the loss of salt due to expensive salt. Anyway, salt is expensive, and the price of salt sold by salt merchants is also high. You can go to Jinling to find out. The salt price of Jinling Salt is definitely the salt of our Lin¡¯s salt.  The price is several times higher, our Yizhou Prefecture is close to the Huaibei Salt Field, and it is also close to the sea, and there are many private salt dealers, so the price of salt is cheap.

    However, even if we sell it cheaply, we still have five times the profit. As for Jinling, there is definitely no less than ten times the profit, and for Chuanzhong, it is definitely more than twenty times the profit.  "

    After hearing this, Lin Qing couldn't help sighing, no wonder everyone in the world knows that salt merchants are rich, and their home is flooded with private salt, and they can still make five times the profit, let alone other places.

    Thinking that Lin Qing was not very proficient in money, Lin Ze warned: "If you want to exchange salt for money, don't go, give it to me and I will exchange it for you, lest you be tricked and sold at a low price."

    Lin Qing nodded and said, "Well, once you say it, I'm also afraid of being scammed, so you should change it."

    After Lin Qing and Lin Ze finished talking, Lin Qing lifted the curtain, looked outside, and said, "Brother, where are we?"

    "We are going to Xuzhou Mansion soon. When we arrive at Xuzhou Mansion, we can board the boat from the wharf of Xuzhou Mansion and go all the way south." Lin Ze said.

    "I heard that Xuzhou Mansion is very prosperous?" Lin Qing asked.

    Lin Ze nodded and said: "Xuzhou Prefecture has a canal wharf. Water transportation is very convenient no matter whether it is going south or north, so many merchants have to pass through there, so there are a lot of goods. Let's go from Xuzhou to Jinling. It is better to take an official ship.  It's safe, but the official ship will come once a few days, if you're curious, just take advantage of this time to go out and have fun."

    As soon as Lin Qing heard it, his interest really increased. Because it is too much trouble to travel far away in a carriage, and Lin Qing has always been lazy, so since he was a child, he has hardly been outside except for Yizhou Mansion and Jinan Mansion for the exam. Now  Now that they are all here, of course he is interested in going to see them.

    On the second day, at noon, Lin Qing really saw a huge city from a distance, with the word "Xuzhou" written on it in ancient seal characters. Looking at the appearance of the city, it was not inferior to the provincial capital.But once he wins the election, many people will immediately put the land in his name in order to avoid tax, and pay him a fixed amount of rent every year.  Think about it, even if he hasn't returned home for three years, those rented children must be handed over to his parents or wife. How could his parents commit suicide because they had no food?  "

    After hearing this, Lin Ze felt that it made sense, but he still said: "Isn't there a natural disaster? It's a famine."

    Lin Qing smiled and said: "Famine? But when there is famine, when have you ever seen a squire without food, and when have you ever seen a man without food? If there is a famine again, the master's family can only reduce or exempt the rent, and never said no  Rent-payers, besides, even if there is a famine, the family has 200 acres of tax-free land, do you think you can starve to death? If you can starve to death like this, then the people would have died long ago, and Bao Zheng and the emperor are still busy judging what son-in-law,  Hurry up and open a warehouse for disaster relief.

    When did Bao Zheng, a generation of famous ministers, lose his mind?  "
