The Fang family has been doing business for many years. This time, when they came to Shandong, in addition to observing the situation and meeting Li Meng, they naturally had some real-life business considerations. When they were interviewed with Li Meng, they also mentioned the request to open shops in Jiaozhou and Jinan, and asked Li Meng to restore several industries in Fang's family in Jining Prefecture.

Li Meng naturally had no objection to this. These requests were actually added to Lingshan Trading Bank's income, so he of course strongly agreed.

It sounds funny. Zhejiang has a good port, but unfortunately it is controlled by Zhejiang maritime merchants. Nanzhili also has a good port, but it is a pity that private use is not allowed. It can obtain maritime goods. Compared with the economic accounting, Jiaozhou and Jiangnan are luxuriously located, and there is a large demand for foreign things. The Fang family's business operations are also considered as subsidy.

He was going to set out in three days, so Li Meng simply asked Fang Yingren to talk to Hou Shan, so he didn't need to care about these detailed matters.

Hou Shan is also busy with relocation. Hou Shan's status rose with Li Mengshui. When he saw Kong Sande of the Kong Mansion, Hou Shan wanted to call him "Master", and later "Mr. De". Now, if there is another word "Master" in Hou Shan's name, Kong Sande will definitely not allow him. It is said that the two are about the same age and the title of brothers is the best.

A few days later, Li Meng and his family were in the personal military camp, and the horse army and two battalions of soldiers were on the way to Jinan. Because many Lingshan Guards and Aoshan Guards were granted land in Jinan Prefecture, the whole family moved, and Li Meng's soldiers did not show any reluctance.

The female family members and the old eunuch were all carriages, and they were not tired along the way. Li Meng rode a horse and led his army to guard the army. He walked along the way with official roads. There were military farms and landlords and gentry attached to the Jiaozhou camp system. There were no need to worry about things like supporting camping.

Along the way, Li Meng was thinking about what Fang Yingren said. Before and now, Zhang Jiang led his army to Huaibei, Huang Ping's intelligence system spent a lot of effort on the salt merchants in Lianghuai. Li Meng still understood what the Fang family's status among the salt merchants in Yangzhou.

Although Fang Yingren said that day, there was nothing to understand for Li Meng. Those salt merchants who had no one to teach rules were obviously all without official backgrounds or had their backstages.

Such salt merchants are helpless and have the easiest and least resistance to start. The so-called tidying up the salt market and deducting a 10% or 20% of the share in it is probably to make an idea about these salt merchants.

As for observing the king's laws, of course, it doesn't matter what method to use secretly to swallow these industries, but it must be impossible to find fault on the surface.

As long as the industries of these salt merchants are legally and reasonably merged, the Fang family will be responsible for their production and sales, and the income and profits they earn will be given to Li Meng 60%.

This matter seems to be the Fang family giving Shandong general a big advantage, but the Fang family has also expanded a large part of the family business out of thin air, and Li Meng has to do the physical work he has done with blood. Although the Fang family is 40%, the share of the salt merchants in Lianghuai has increased, and the additional benefits can be far more than that 10%.

Li Meng also got the opportunity to enter Lianghuai Salt Industry. Lianghuai Salt Industry is different from the current private salt sales in Shandong. This pure salt business belongs to this era. Li Meng and his subordinates are either laymen or half-understand, and they also need an agent like the Fang family.

Mr. Fang is indeed a cunning person. He found a good entry point to form an alliance with Li Meng and expressed his kindness in advance. This is indeed a good thing for mutual benefit.

As for how to do it, Li Meng actually had a method before Fang Yingren suddenly came to the door. If it weren't for the convincing story of the second son of the Fang family, of course, the more important thing was to come in time. Otherwise, Li Meng's method would have been used on their Fang family, and the Fang family's luck would be really good.
