The lives of Great Qin's people were extremely difficult, and they could only buy one portion of salt every month, and it was coarse salt!
One portion of coarse salt, he wished he could split it into two portions!
There was only a small amount in a bowl of vegetable soup!
Great Qin did not have a method to refine refined salt, and most of the coarse salt was dug out from the mines!
The importance of salt in ancient times was self-evident!
That was why Old Zhao and the other two lost their composure when they saw the refined salt in Zhao Yu's hands!
Qin Shi Huang took a deep breath, his gaze burning as he asked Zhao Yu,"Old Yu, how did you refine this refined salt?”
Zhao Yu smiled calmly. He had seen the performance of Old Zhao and the other two.
As Zhao Yu had expected, Old Zhao and the other two were profiteers!
The importance of refining refined salt in ancient times, presumably no one knew better than Old Zhao and the other two!
Such an important nomological law was given just like that?
You want me to give it to you? Do you think you're Qin Shihuang?
Was this a joke?
If the Longevity Fruit Tree ripened in three months, he would enter the palace and offer it to Qin Shihuang, as well as the method to refine refined salt!
The benefits he obtained were only high and not low!
Zhao Yu's expression was calm. He drank a bowl of wine and said,"Old Zhao, business is about faith. Where's the land you promised me last time?”
Qin Shi Huang was anxious to obtain the method to refine refined salt, but he only reacted when he heard Zhao Yu's words!
So it was because he didn't give enough to Zhao Yu!
With Zhao Yu's personality, he would never give away the refined salt refining method without paying a huge price!
Even if he was Old Zhao, who had been concerned about Zhao Yu's safety time and time again, he could not do it!
Old Zhao had a big belly and a smile on his face. He said politely,"Old Yu, your hundred mu of fertile land was settled for you last night. How would you dare to forget!”
After saying that, Qin Shi Huang signaled with his eyes, and Meng Yi immediately passed the chisel to Zhao Yu.
When Great Qin's citizens traded, they would use a chisel, and they would need to report to the government.
With Great Qin's strict laws, no one dared to fake it!
He took the chisel and thought of the hundred acres of fertile land near the eastern suburbs.
Zhao Yu's mood was much better now.”
Seeing how happy Zhao Yu was, he didn't mention anything about refining refined salt.
Qin Shi Huang continued to ask in a deep voice," Old Yu, you also know that we are all merchants. We will not let you suffer losses. How about this? I will buy this refined salt refining method for 100,000 yuan. How about that?"”
Hearing Old Zhao's words, Zhao Yu was shocked. 100,000 yuan was definitely not a small amount in Qin Shi!
Even for the officials of Xianyang, there were very few nobles who could get 100,000 yuan in a short period of time!
Old Zhao gave out 100,000 yuan at once. It seemed that Old Zhao's business was not small!
Thinking back to the paper making technique that he had given to Old Zhao, Zhao Yu felt that he had suffered a loss.
On the surface, he still looked calm. Zhao Yu pursed his lips and said,"Old Zhao, 100,000 yuan?”
Qin Shihuang was stunned for a moment.
Even though Zhao Yu was a mystery to him, his identity was still that of a commoner from the eastern suburbs of Xianyang.
Forget about 100,000 yuan, he probably had never seen 10,000 yuan in his entire life!
100,000 yuan? Zhao Yu was dumbfounded?
But Zhao Yu actually said that the 100,000 yuan I gave him was to send a beggar away?
Qin Shi Huang stared at Zhao Yu and took a deep breath. His head hurt!
Puff!
When Wang Jian and Meng Yi by the side heard this, they instantly spat out a mouthful of wine!
He dared to bargain with His Majesty?
If it was an ordinary person, even ten thousand heads would not be enough to chop off someone who dared to speak to His Majesty like this!
Wang Jian even wanted to stand up and curse!
If I can't beat you, I can scold you a few times, right?
As for Meng Yi, he dropped his chopsticks on the floor and looked at Zhao Yu with a complicated expression.
He went to think about life!
Coughing, Qin Shi Huang hinted to Wang Jian to sit down.
Qin Shi Huang quickly regained his composure and asked Zhao Yu,""Old Yu, how much do you think is appropriate?”
"One million!" Zhao Yu insisted!
Qin Shi Huang was stunned. He had a whole new level of respect for Zhao Yu's ambition. However, in order not to expose his identity, he still had to put on an act.
Qin Shi Huang said to Zhao Yu in a tone that he thought was difficult,"Old Yu, your brother is only doing a small business. The government doesn't value merchants like us and has been repeatedly cut off. I really can't take out this one million!”
Hearing Old Zhao's explanation, Zhao Yu sighed in his heart.
Scholars, farmers, merchants, and merchants had the lowest status in Great Qin!
This was especially true for Great Qin, where even ordinary farmers could spit on merchants!
Seeing Old Zhao's troubled expression, Zhao Yu's eyes lit up." Old Zhao, I know that it's not easy for you to be a businessman at your age. How about this? We'll sign and sign. You can pay 100,000 yuan first and pay the rest in installments. You can pay me once every six months."”
"Installments?" Hearing this, Great Qin's three leaders were all confused!
Zhao Yu knew this would happen, so he explained calmly,"It's equivalent to spending in advance. You can return the remaining money to me in installments every six months.”
As he spoke, Zhao Yu had already written down the agreement for the payment in installments on a piece of linen paper. He spread it out in front of Old Zhao and said,""Take a look. If you can, sign your name.”
Old Zhao looked at it and thought for a moment before signing his name without hesitation.
Seeing that Old Zhao had signed his name, Zhao Yu quickly put the agreement into his pocket and handed the refined salt refining method that he had prepared to Old Zhao.
Old Zhao took the paper and glanced at it. His eyes were red. He took a deep breath and put it into his shirt pocket like a treasure.
"You guys have eaten your fill. I'm going to feed the pigs too.”Zhao Yu stood up and walked into another room. He took out a large bucket of potatoes.
Then, he poured a large bowl of refined salt into the bucket and stirred it with the potato slices.
Qin Shi Huang, Wang Jian, and Meng Yi followed Zhao Yu to the pigsty.
He saw Zhao Yu pour a large bowl of potatoes mixed with salt into the pigsty.
Old Zhao and the other two were shocked on the spot, feeling extremely regretful in their hearts!
This large bucket of potatoes was a top-notch delicacy!
Moreover, there was a big bowl of refined salt!
This bowl of refined salt, even Qin Shihuang did not waste it so extravagantly in the palace!
So many good things were fed to the wild boar by Zhao Yu?
Qin Shihuang felt mixed feelings and his heart ached. His previous life was worse than a pig?
Wang Jian could not help but feel pained."What a waste! Old Yu, if you were my grandson, I would break your legs!”
Meng Yi's eyes were fixed on the potatoes in the pigsty. He watched as the black pig ate the potatoes while panting. He exclaimed,"Old Yu, you pig is living better than a human!”
Zhao Yu laughed it off. He had seen the reactions of Old Zhao and the other two and had already predicted it.
The ancients valued food more than he had imagined!
