467 folds, take the initiative
Things have come to this point, no matter how Lin Chujiu and Su Cha struggle, they can't change the fact that they want to confront the imperial Zhang family. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Lin Chujiu and Su Cha were no longer entangled, and after the two finished breakfast, they discussed how to deal with it.
"Princess, this is the news that I asked people to find out, this time the price of grain has risen, and in just seven days, the Zhang family of the empire has made a profit of more than one million taels." This million taels is not a normal income, but a profit brought by the price increase after removing the normal income.
"Fortunately, the prince came out in seven days, otherwise the price of grain would be the same every day, and the Zhang family would have to eat to death." Lin Chujiu looked at the data from Su Cha and couldn't help but shake his head,
This is really faster than printing money, and in addition to the Imperial Zhang family, the others are not bad, adding up to two or three million taels, and even Su Cha has earned more than 300,000 taels.
However, Su Tea can make so much more money, it is completely dependent on the quantity, and the grain price of the Su family shop is always lower than that of others, so there are more people who buy it, and the profit is not less.
"These merchants are accustomed to making a fortune, and after every war, the people must endure for several years, even the imperial court is tight, and it is serious that the Central Empire borrows silver. In fact, all countries are afraid of war, but somehow, it is clear that all countries do not want to fight, but every few years countries always have to fight several wars. Dongwen finally stopped for three years, and the treasury saved a sum of silver, and this time I am afraid that it will be spent without leaving ten. In addition to checking the income of these seven days, Su Cha also found out the windfall profits obtained by grain merchants in several wars in the past few years.
"Princess, you see, three years ago, Dongwen fought with the Nanban, and the imperial Zhang family made a profit of nearly 10 million taels. In addition to grain, they also sold illicit salt and iron tools. "Su Cha is well prepared this time, whether it is useful or not, let's find out the matter first.
This time it was too dangerous, and Su Cha didn't dare to take it lightly.
Su Cha took out another piece of paper and handed it to Lin Chujiu: "This is the silver earned by the Zhang family in the war between Xiwu and Dongwen four years ago. ”
Su Cha is a businessman, and he is also engaged in grain trading, and he is very sensitive to the rise in grain prices.
"You've collected it all." Lin Chujiu looked down and looked at Su Cha with admiration.
Not only Dongwen, but also the grain prices of Nanban, Beili and Xiwu in recent years, Su Cha is also recorded one by one, although it is a country, Su Tea cannot find out the grain sales of the three countries of Xiwu, it can be calculated according to the annual needs of each country, and it can also be calculated during the period of rising food prices, the grain merchants led by the Zhang family of the empire have earned how much black-hearted silver they have earned.
Lin Chujiu didn't know how to dial the abacus, so she could only add it up one by one with charcoal, and when she calculated the result, Lin Chujiu was dumbfounded, "In the three wars, those grain merchants made a profit of 100 million taels?" "It's simply a robbery for money, for the money of ordinary people.
"Scary, isn't it? Before careful statistics, I only thought that they would earn millions of taels at most, but I didn't want to look like they had only risen by a few cents, but in fact they had sucked up the blood of the people. "Presumably, the emperor also saw this clearly, so he took the opportunity to make trouble and used Xiao Wangfu as a gunman.
Let them Xiao Wangfu fight with the imperial grain merchants, and in the end, no matter who loses or wins, the emperor is the winner.
"Alas......" Lin Chujiu sighed, "Since it can't be changed, if we want to confront the Imperial Zhang family, let's do it." ”
Lin Chujiu found a blank notebook from under the desk and handed it to Su Cha, "Write a plenum, the focus is to write down the income of the grain merchants." ”
Su Cha knew Lin Chujiu's words, asked Lin Chujiu roughly, and then picked up the pen and wrote.
After the excerpt was written, Su Cha handed it to Lin Chujiu to check, "Princess, do you think this is okay?" Su Cha didn't help Xiao Tianyao prepare excerpts, and he was also familiar with writing excerpts.
Lin Chujiu can't write excerpts, but it doesn't mean that he can't read them, and the books during this period are not in vain, and the classical Chinese can understand the meaning of it as long as he glances at it.
After reading it, Lin Chujiu sighed again, "It's good that the matter is clearly written, but it's not sensational enough, not sincere enough." "Su Cha is as pragmatic as Xiao Tianyao, what he writes is dry, and he is indeed material, but this kind of excerpt can't move people, and he can't show his grievances.
Children who can cry have candy to eat, and if they want people to see the helplessness and grievances of Xiao Wangfu, they don't just write the words "wronged" on the fold, but use practical things and gorgeous words to silently tell the world about their grievances in Xiao Wangfu.
Hearing Lin Chujiu's words, Su Cha said that he probably understood what Lin Chujiu wanted, and rewrote it decisively, and this time he didn't write it directly on the fold, but wrote it on ordinary rice paper, but after writing it, Lin Chujiu was still not satisfied, "It's too deliberate, there is no natural nature." "She really shouldn't ask a businessman, how good the writing is, just be pragmatic.
"That's all I can write." Su Cha threw away his pen and spread his hands, indicating that he was incompetent.
He knew that what Lin Chujiu said was very effective in sensationalism and rendering, but ...... He can't do it.
"Get someone to help." In Lin Chujiu's mind, an excellent candidate flashed, "Before the emperor announced that I had entered the palace to ask for guilt, we went to find Meng Xiuyuan, and by the way, I also asked him what the status of the imperial Zhang family was in the Central Empire." ”
The Central Empire was extremely wary of the Four Kingdoms, and the people of the Four Kingdoms could not easily enter the Central Empire, and ninety percent of them could not get out, and the remaining one percent died directly.
In such an environment, it is simply a dream for the four countries to find out the news of the Central Empire.
The Central Empire is a very mysterious place for the people of the Four Kingdoms, basically not many people know what the Central Empire is all about, even Xiao Tianyao can't send people to the Central Empire to find out the news, so he can only reluctantly pass the route of Emperor Dongwen to catch up with the people of the Central Empire, and occasionally inquire about some news that everyone knows in the Central Empire.
In the four countries, only the Wenchang Meng family has a close relationship with the Central Empire, and many members of the Meng family have been to the Central Empire and returned. It's just that the Meng family is well aware of the taboos of the Central Empire, and they will not easily talk about the Central Empire with the four countries.
However, Lin Chujiu came forward, and the matter was said separately.
The carriage was quickly ready, and in order not to attract attention, Lin Chujiu dressed up as a little maid and followed behind Su Cha.
"I've wronged you, Princess." After getting into the carriage, Su Cha said to Lin Chujiu, who was kneeling on one side.
"What grievances? How dare you let me serve you? Lin Chujiu poured himself a cup of tea, completely ignoring Su Cha.
"Hey...... Of course I don't dare, if I really want you to serve me, the princess, the prince must not beat me to death. Su Cha also wanted to drink tea, but seeing that the teapot was placed by Lin Chujiu's side, Su Cha resigned himself to reluctantly withdrawing his hand.
Forget it, he still continues to maintain his elegant noble son fan, don't be led by the princess......
