Seeing Li Meng tall and old, his clothes were washed clean and his behavior was gentle and polite, which was very different from those rough men in military households, this style immediately gave the two shopkeepers a good impression. Those who do business are most afraid of meeting unreasonable people. Since they are gentle and polite, it means that everything is discussed.

Li Meng reached out and asked the two shopkeepers to sit down. Both shopkeepers were chefs hired by themselves. Seeing that the table was just a plate of peanuts, a plate of dried salted fish, and a pot of wine. The rest were wine cups and chopsticks. I thought it was really simple. At least you earned 3,000 taels of silver from us, and you were so stingy.

"For the two shopkeepers, I'll give me a cup of wine."

The two shopkeepers raised their glasses quickly, and they were all full of smiles and politeness. After drinking a glass of wine, Li Meng smacked his lips. The wine was too light. For those who came out of the army, this kind of light wine was really not very meaningful. Put down the cup and then spoke:

"To be honest with the two shopkeepers, the storm at the beach is strong, the years are not good, and the life of the military brothers is not easy. Do you think you can increase the price?"

Finally, the main point was about the topic. The two shopkeepers' faces suddenly collapsed. They thought that this was true. The two looked at each other. Manager Wang said hesitantly:

"Brother Li, life in the salt bank is not easy. The money paid by passing through the Jiaohe River will be doubled. I won't hide it from you. The government and the horses have to be handled, and it's not easy for us. This..."

While he was talking, he suddenly heard a little noise outside. The two shopkeepers were a little surprised. Li Meng looked at the doors and windows and other exits, reached out and touched the knife on his waist. He moved the chair back to facilitate his movements. He heard the footsteps outside, and a man rushed in blankly.

The two shopkeepers turned around in surprise. Li Meng took a step back and stood up directly. The man who came in knelt on the ground with a thud as soon as he entered the door. His movements were so fast that it was dazzling. The three people in the room didn't see who it was, and they heard one of them say in a crying voice:

"Uncle Li, I feel ashamed!"

Li Meng saw clearly that it was Zhang butcher kneeling on the ground. The butcher was still arrogant and arrogant when he woke up in the morning. At this time, he was full of regret and pain. Seeing Li Meng turn his eyes to him, Zhang butcher did not stand up, and came to Li Meng with his knees, wiped his tears and said:

"I'm really confused by the lard. My mother used to teach me to be a good person, but when I grew up, I was confused. Today, I was so thunderous that I woke me up by Uncle Li's words. Uncle, you can pay for others. I am so ashamed to give up!"

The atmosphere inside the room was very strange. The two shopkeepers didn't know what happened, but Li Meng understood and said with a smile:

"It's good that Master Zhang has this intention. I'll pay it back for Ma Gang if I owe it."

Zhang Butuhuo suddenly stood up, with an angry expression on his face and said loudly:

"God is above. Mr. Li, you have such kindness. Why don't I, Lao Zhang? I have brought people. When the young man played dice, he lost money. We have to give him a chance. I will give him all the money to Ma Gang."

"Two shopkeepers, you see, Master Zhang is really loyal and honest. There are too few loyal and honest people in our Ming Dynasty. Do you think?"

Although the two shopkeepers didn't go to dice shops to play, they still knew who the butcher was. Such a bastard had something to do with the word "Loyalty and kindness", but the scene in front of them was already confused, and they just smiled and nodded to cater to it.

Li Meng and Zhang Butcher said a few more polite words. Zhang Butcher was just like a righteous person and quickly left the house. In fact, after Li Meng said those words to him, he turned around and Zhang Butcher went to ask someone for inquiries. If he wanted to be a nosy person, he would teach him a lesson. But after knowing who Li Meng was from the local salt dealer, Zhang Butcher almost scared his urine, quickly released Ma Gang, and then looked for Li Meng everywhere in the town.

In this tavern, after Zhang Butcher went out, he found that although the weather was cold, his clothes were completely covered in cold sweat. After Zhang Butcher returned, he fell seriously ill. He didn't know if he was caught in a cold or was scared, but he didn't get out of bed for three days.

Disturbed by this episode, I didn't know how to continue what Manager Wang said. The three of them looked at each other and smiled awkwardly. Li Meng rarely talked to people in the past, and was not familiar with the communication in the mall, so he simply said straightforwardly:

"A tumbler of salt costs one or five cents of silver, no copper coins, and the price is also sold to you by those salt cubes and salt farms. I don't want much, what do you think?"

Just now, but as long as he was not a fool, he could see that he was extremely afraid. There were many rumors and legends about Li Meng and Li Erlang in Fengmeng Town. The two shopkeepers also knew in their hearts that the person in front of him was not easy to mess with. Manager Kong thought about it and hesitated and said:

“Is this a little higher?”

Manager Wang next to him nodded repeatedly. Li Meng smiled, but instead sat down, picked up a peanut and threw it in his mouth, and said while chewing:

"These salts are only four taels of silver per duct. It is said that they can sell even higher even if they are farther away. You said I also put the boat south in Jiaohe..."

The two shopkeepers were shocked and thought to himself how he knew these things and how to tell them. In fact, it was very simple. Hou Shan invited a shopkeeper Wang's shopkeeper to have a few times in the name of thanks, and gave him hundreds of people a benefit. This became a good friend who could say everything.

Since people know their own background, they naturally become much more passive when bargaining...

When the two shopkeepers left the tavern, they looked bad, and the price was finally set at one or five cents per pound. However, Li Meng also made some concessions, which was to ensure that the salt diced salt and the salt farm would no longer sell those low-quality and high-priced salt to Fengmeng Town.

Li Meng came out a while later than the two shopkeepers. The amount of wine was already settled by the butcher Zhang. A listless young man sat on the bench at the door. The shopkeeper whispered when Li Meng was checking the bill:
Chapter completed!
