Industrial transfer, this is not something that Gao Li thought of temporarily, but a plan for a long time.

Since its inception, Lizhuang has given people the impression that it has been producing high value-added products, luxurious, noble and exquisite, which is the characteristics of Lizhuang products, in short, it is expensive.

And the people who will buy these products, they are not interested in quality, but more in the quality of things. Lizhuang is Gaoli's entrepreneurial base, and there are too many things piled up here, many of which do not match this high-end image. Therefore, the relocation plan has long been put on the agenda.

The south is prolific in cotton, and most of Gaoli's cotton comes from the south. Nowadays, the Gaoli people are in Yannan, which is actually closer to the main cotton-producing areas. In fact, the South is not the most suitable place to grow cotton in terms of pure geography. Because the south is waterlogged, cotton is afraid of waterlogging. However, only the wealthy can sustain large-scale farms, and the south happens to be a rich people's settlement.

There is still a lot of vacant land in Yannan City, and Gao Li plans to relocate all the textile factories and leave only the garment manufacturing with the highest added value in Lizhuang. Workers are recruited from Yanan, which is much cheaper than recruiting workers from Binh Duong City.

Of course, this must be only the first step in industrial transfer, and there may be more in the future, but that is not something Gao Li needs to worry about at the moment.

Subsequently, Wu Youcai's news came again, because Wu Youcai did not reply within two days, the emperor actually found an agent and offered double the price to the big cotton farmer landlord. Since it was purchased by the emperor and the price was high, the big cotton farmers were naturally happy. So he decisively pigeoned Wu Youcai, and then wanted to send the baled cotton to the emperor.

However.

Wu Youcai kept an eye on it at this time.

The cotton that has been packed is all made from the cotton gins in Lizhuang. The package is also used in Lizhuang's packing machinery. Where can ordinary people make such regular cotton bales? These things already have owners, and if the emperor wants them, he will honestly find the workers to pick them himself!

How clever was Wu Youcai? From the very beginning of his dealings with these cotton farmers, he had always instructed his people that no one was allowed to divulge the secrets of Li Zhuang's machinery. To date, no one knows how these machines work.

The emperor once sent someone to bribe Wu Youcai's subordinates, but these people selected by Wu Youcai were all absolutely trustworthy by himself, either his immediate family, or even his son. His biological son will inherit the family business in the future, of course, it is impossible to pit his father?

Who in the Wu family doesn't know how good it is to follow Gao Li? To put it simply, you can make money without using your brain! Make a lot of money!

Although they were also afraid of the emperor, they were afraid of returning, so they could only try their best to find a balance on the edge of not angering the emperor. After all, this is a war between the emperor and Gao Li, and they, as small soldiers, can only be affected as much as possible.

Of course, Gao Li couldn't let Wu Youcai carry this kind of thing by himself, so he asked the soldiers and the little secretaries to go to various cotton purchase areas.

The meaning of the existence of soldier ants is not to let the cotton belonging to Lizhuang be robbed.

And the appearance of the little secretary means intimidation.

The reason is very simple, no matter whether the emperor enters the market or not, Gaoli's textile industry will still be the strongest, if Gaoli stops buying their cotton, all your cotton emperors will not be able to eat it.

However, those cotton farmers were probably assured by the emperor, and no one believed or feared them. They said that unless Gao Li raised the price as high as the emperor, the cotton farmers would stop supplying cotton.

It turns out that this is what it means.

Gao Li, who was sitting in Yannan City far away, finally understood that the emperor didn't really care if this batch of cotton would be smashed in his hands, his purpose was just to speculate the price of cotton in this way.

In a short period of time, the big cotton farmers and landlords had reached an agreement, and they colluded together to sit on the land and raise prices.

Truth be told, it's a very skinny way to play, but it's to be expected.

Interesting.

In Gao Li's favorite study, Gao Li, Ling Long, and Nonoka are all here. Nonoka quickly flipped through the information report in his hand, his expression solemn.

"What to do?" asked Nooka in a whisper.

"What do you say?" Gao Li asked rhetorically.

"In my opinion, to bring those cotton farmers here and clarify the stakes, their short-sighted behavior can make money for a while, but it will greatly damage the interests and trust between us. Nonorka said.

Gao Li shook his head and said, "There's no need for that. ”

Ling Long said: "I know, they don't abide by the spirit of the contract. You're going to set fire to their cotton fields to make an example. ”

Gao Li also shook his head and said, "Then Your Majesty will be too happy, so I won't help Your Majesty." ”

"Don't sell it!" Noorca said anxiously.

"It's just the deposit part, and you can collect as much as you can. Then, I will tell the downstream industry. This year, because of His Majesty's malicious purchase of cotton, which caused the price of cotton to soar, Li Zhuang decided to give up this year's cotton purchase. From now until the new cotton market next year, all Lizhuang cotton cloth will be available in limited quantities, and all cloth will be auctioned every month. Gao Li said with a smile.

"My God, Xianggong, how can you be so bad?" Ling Long's face was full of surprise.

"This emperor thought that he could make me lose in this way, but in fact he thought too much. Nowadays, the industry is not as simple as he thinks. Any change in the upstream will be reflected downstream, and I can even double the price of cotton cloth to deal with this, so that I can make more money after deducting the cost. Lizhuang's cotton cloth is not worried about selling at all, and the price can be doubled. But I can't start this, I have to let everyone watch, I have to let those big landlords remember that I am Gao Li, and no one can be bullied. ”

Nonoka laughed and said, "It's just the right opportunity to relocate the machine!"

Gao Li snapped his fingers: "That's what it means!"

Subsequently, Wu Youcai received Gao Li's letter, and he immediately understood. He first stood still, and collected all the cotton in the deposit share at the new price.

At this time, these big landlords all went to Pingyang City, to be honest, if it weren't for the emperor behind the breach of contract, these big landlords really wouldn't dare to provoke Wu Youcai and Gao Li to death. But since there is an emperor behind him and money to be earned, who can refuse this temptation? But even so, their hearts are still cowardly. That's why they came to Pingyang City, and they had to explain this matter to Wu Youcai.

Of course, the price is naturally unacceptable.

On the day when the news of the completion of the acquisition came back, Wu Youcai hosted a banquet for these big landowners in a second-rate restaurant in Pingyang City. But when these big landlords came, they found that there was only an empty bowl in front of each person on the huge table, and they didn't know what it meant.

When the last big landlord came, Wu Youcai stood up with a smile, and then, in front of all the landlords, he tore up the contract they had signed before.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we're old friends. I, Wu, think that although I am stingy, I dare not say much to you, but I think that I have a clear conscience, and the changed account is definitely owed a copper. But what did you do to me? You actually brought us such a play, which we had talked about before, and when we said that we would turn our faces, we would turn our faces. Business, what is important is a credit. Since you don't have credit, I don't have to waste time on you, and that's the end of our business. ”

After speaking, Wu Youcai was about to leave.

"Hmph, brother, don't pretend here. Without us, where would you go to get cotton? At the speed of Li Zhuang, the cotton of ordinary retail investors is not enough for you! Moreover, His Majesty the Emperor has already let out the rumors that cotton will be purchased at double price. Do you think those people will sell you cotton?" said a large landowner with a look of disdain.

Wu Youcai said: "I just received a letter from my brother, and he clearly told me that the contract document is the contract document, and if you don't obey it, the document will be invalid." As agreed, you are required to pay three times the deposit. ”

Those people laughed and said: "Old Wu, are you stupid? The deposit is only one percent of the estimated total price, and the three times the compensation plus it is only forty percent, and His Majesty wants to buy it twice." You don't think this threatens us, do you?"

Wu Youcai said: "I didn't threaten you, within three days, I will send the compensation to my talented firm, if you can't see it." Don't blame me for turning my face. ”

"It won't take three days!" a large landowner immediately pulled out a golden ticket and slapped it on the table.

Not only him, but all the big landlords should have discussed it and took a picture at the same time. The golden ticket is real, and the amount of compensation is also real, this was originally one of the means they used to blackmail Wu Youcai, but they didn't expect it to come in handy at such a time.

Wu Youcai was about to take it away, and the big landlord who was the first to shoot the golden ticket said: "Old Wu, can you think about it, if you accept this golden ticket, you don't want one or two of this cotton this year!"

"Don't worry!" Wu Youcai held all the golden tickets in his hand, took out an abacus from his waist, flicked it a few times, and then hung the counting cards back on his waist, and continued: "This year's cotton, don't even think about selling it to Li Zhuang!"

"You are so majestic, do you feel that without you, we will not be able to do business with Li Zhuang?" I wonder if you have been secretly withholding King Yannan behind your back?" one of them shouted.

Wu Youcai sneered: "It's not my majesty, it's my brother's majesty that gave me! My brother has already said that this year we will stop harvesting cotton and only produce according to the stock." Once the cotton is exhausted, the production will be stopped immediately, the textile factory will be on holiday, and at the same time, all the Lizhuang cotton cloth will be auctioned in batches and limited quantities every month! And this is all thanks to you! At that time, the cotton cloth in the whole market will be in short supply, and the price of cotton cloth will skyrocket, so you will wait to be poked in the back!"

Hearing Wu Youcai say this, those big landlords realized that this was the case!

"In that case, what do you mean by calling us here, with an empty bowl in front of one of us?" asked a large landowner, his voice seemingly softening.

Wu Youcai smiled and said, "There are my farts in these bowls, you can eat farts!"
