"Damn it, it's so hateful!"

Wuhe was in the middle, Gao Jin, who had just returned from another place, couldn't help but curse.

It was originally a happy welcoming banquet, but now it has become like this.

"Brother Gao, is that Gome Home Furnishing Shop really that big impact on your Gaojiyu Washing Shop?"

Chai Lingwu looked at Gao Jin with some confusion, and then looked at Changsun Chong who was silent.

"One is fifty-year-old Tang Yuan, and the other is how many cents of money start. Which one do you think those who buy things will choose to buy?

If the iron fish washing used to fail to solve the problem of rust, even if it is sold at a cheaper price, there is nothing to worry about.

But now they have a layer of tin on it, which is completely different. Not only is it beautiful, it also solves the problem of rust."

Gao Jin's face looked very ugly, but he did not expose his anger to Chai Lingwu.

"Plated tin on iron plates. Recently, the popular canned fruits in Chang'an City are made in this way. At present, the anti-rust effect should be very good."

Changsun Chong added next to him.

"Is it this canned lychee?"

Chai Lingwu couldn't help but pick up the canned lychees from the table, poured out all the lychees inside, and then looked at them carefully.

As a specialty of Lingnan, even the wealthy businessmen in Chang'an City rarely have the opportunity to eat it.

But now the Chu Prince's Mansion has cleverly solved this problem through canned fruits.

Although the lychees made into cans and the lychees freshly picked from the trees will definitely have some differences in taste.

But at least the problem has been solved.

"Yes, it's this kind of can. The iron smelting workshop in the King of Chu Mansion made thin iron plates and then plated them on them. However, the iron smelting workshop in our Changsun family could soon produce such iron plates.

Technically speaking, tin-plated steel plates are not particularly difficult, but they were not thought of using them like this before."

It would be fine if Changsun Chong didn't say it, but when Gao Jin was even more depressed.

The Chu King’s Mansion has created tin-plated steel plates, and the Changsun family also wants to do it, so other iron smelting workshops will definitely follow suit.

At that time, will there be a market for copper fish washing?

If you wash the copper fish in your own shop, you can only melt it back into copper ingots?

This means that the previous processing costs, and the patterns carefully carved by craftsmen before were all in vain.

The most important thing is that the income of several thousand chunks of money will be gone in the future.

"I know a little bit about what fish wash is like. The Gome Home Furnishing Shop in the King of Chu's Mansion dares to sell iron fish wash for 50 Tangyuan. Can they really do this cheap?"

Chai Lingwu continued to express his questions.

"Don't ask me about this, Brother Changsun is more clear than me."

Gao Jin drank a glass of wine in depression and sulked there.

"I have questions about what Brother Chai said. Yesterday, the craftsmen in the house had conducted research on the iron fish washing sold by Gome Home Furnishing Shop. Even if we make such iron fish washing, the cost will be at least more than 100 cents, and fifty cents will definitely be a loss.

Although this has something to do with the fact that our Changsun iron smelting workshop cannot produce such thin iron plates for the time being, even if we use the same iron plate, the processing fee alone will cost more than fifty cents.

I really don’t know what the people in the Chu Prince’s Mansion are doing, do you want to win people’s hearts?”

Changsun Chong's words were very vicious.

Once this statement is circulating among the people, Li Zhi will definitely feel uncomfortable if he doesn't say what Li Shimin would think.

Although Li Zhi has served as the prince for two years, his presence is still very low in various affairs in Chang'an City.

He is a little transparent person, but few people will have any objections.

"Brother Changsun, I think it's possible that Li Kuan discovered something and wanted to take this opportunity to deal with our Gao family, so he set such a price that was destined to lose money."

Gao Jin also knew a little about the dispute between the Gao family, the Changsun family and the Chu Prince's Mansion.

Now he can only convince himself with this reason.

"Brother Changsun, Brother Gao, although Li Kuan is very annoying, none of us like him.

But objectively speaking, when the people in the Chu Palace do business, most of the time they follow business rules.

Could it be that they used some special method?"

Although Chai Lingwu is not a talented person, the Chai family has suffered so much loss in the Chu Prince's Mansion, so he is not that stupid.

"Forget it, let's not talk about these disappointing things, let's have a drink first."

Xiao Kai, who was standing by, usually didn't get along with them many times. He felt that a group of people were complaining and complaining like a grudge, which seemed to be meaningless.

Maybe Gao Jin and the others knew that they could not find a solution, so they could only complain here.

So after listening to Xiao Kai's words, they started to change the topic after a few more cursing words.

...

"The prince, Fengjia tin shop at the Datang Trading Center, raised the price of tin again yesterday. In just over a month, the price of tin ingots has doubled."

In the Chu King's Mansion, Wang Fugui prepared for a future report to Li Kuan a concern.

Whether it is the production of canned food or the production of fish washing, a large amount of tin is required.

Although 90% of the tin ingots in Chang'an City have been bought by the Chu Palace, it can't be supported for many days.

"A few days ago, did Ping An Trade discovered a huge tin ore in Sumen, Nanyang? Why is the price of tin ingots still rising?"

Li Kuan generally doesn't care about special details, but Ping An Trade issued a large tin mine in Nanyang, and another large coal mine was found next to Puluozhong. Wang Xuanwu still needs to report such news to him in time.

"Yes, this news has been confirmed to be true. But far water cannot quench near thirst. Ping An Trade's tin ingots will be smelted and transported to Chang'an City. It will be at least three months later, right?

The Feng family must have received relevant news and wanted to make some money in the past few months.

According to the current price of tin ingots, the money earned by Fengjia Tin Shop in one month is as good as the money earned in the past year, or even more.

At that time, even if the tin ingots from Ping An Trade are transported to Chang'an City, the price will only slowly fall and will not fall to the bottom immediately.

After all, many iron smelting workshops are now trying to make tin plated iron plates, and then the demand for tin ingots will only increase.

Even the price of tin ingots will continue to rise next month.”

Wang Fugui felt a little bitter in his heart.

I originally thought that by washing canned and iron fish, the Chu Prince's Mansion could make some money.

Now I find that the main money may have been earned by the Feng family in Lingnan.

It's really easy for these mining guys to make money.

It is obviously a job without any technical content, but it can enjoy such high profits, which makes people very unwilling to accept.

In fact, if Wang Fugui knew the relationship between steel mills and iron ore manufacturers in later generations, he would be able to balance it a lot in his heart.

Those who mine in Australia can make more than 100% profit by simply selling iron ore.

Some steel mills are exhausted and can only earn a fraction of the money they have, and are working for iron ore manufacturers.

The key is that the wages of other people's mining workers are several times more than those of your steel mill workers, or even dozens of times.

Do you think you are depressed?

"The rise in the price of tin ingots will definitely allow the Feng family to increase the development of mineral deposits from Lingnan to the west, which will also be beneficial to the development of Lingnan at that time.

Of course, you don’t have to worry too much. Once the profit of tin ingots is so high that it attracts people’s hearts, more nobles will immediately invest in this industry.

Although there is only a large tin mine in Lingnan Road, our Tang Dynasty does not mean that there is no output of tin ingots elsewhere. It’s just that the scale is not large and the returns are not very high, so no one has paid attention to it.

Refining tin is relatively easy. Once everyone realizes that the profit of digging tin ore is very high, someone will immediately expand the production capacity of tin ingots.

Only when the tin ore of Ping'an Trade began to produce large quantities of tin ingots and lower the price of tin ingots, those small mineral deposits will slowly return to their original state and become no one is willing to mine them."

Li Kuan is relatively unsightly about the changes in the price of tin ingots.

The Feng family is a local snake in Lingnan. If the Tang Dynasty wanted to integrate Lingnan Road into the entire country as soon as possible, then it would be necessary to give the Feng family some appropriate benefits.

Nowadays, the price of tin ingots has changed, even if the Feng family has taken the opportunity to ride the Tang Dynasty's economic development.

"Then... then let's not care about that much for now?"

Seeing that Li Kuan did not give him any pioneering suggestions, Wang Fugui couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

"The Feng family is not our main enemy now. Let's talk about it first."

"I understand!"

When Li Kuan said such blunt words, Wang Fugui completely understood.

...

"Zhi Nu, many people in the court impeached the workshops of the Chu Prince's Mansion to destroy commercial rules and compete maliciously. What do you think about this?"

In the Summer Palace, Li Shimin was a little speechless when he looked at the pile of impeachment memorials.

This Li Kuan is really capable of causing trouble.

"Father, these impeachment memorials should be about the sharp price reduction of permanent bicycles and the washing of iron fish, right?"
