Chapter 122: Cooperative Commune

In response to Dou Ren's question, Guo Cong said slowly: "The Weaving Bureau will coordinate the orders of the imperial court and you according to the specific situation and priorities, and will allocate the production time and shipping time to the silk weaving workshop, and will definitely not favor one over the other!"

Dou Ren was silent for a moment, when Cheng De told him the news yesterday, he knew that it would not be a good thing for the Weaving Bureau to find them today, probably to force them to give up, and the order they originally signed with Cheng De.

As he thought, he thought that the Weaving Bureau would give a solution, but he didn't expect that he would just let them hand over the order to the Weaving Bureau, wanting to completely control them.

At the same time, he sneered at what Guo Cong said that he would not favor one over the other, how could they, ordinary people, compare with the imperial court, I am afraid that after the order of the imperial court is completed, it will be their turn.

Seeing this, Lu Jing followed Guo Cong's words and said: "Of course, the Weaving Bureau understands your worries, if you are not willing to entrust the order to the Weaving Bureau, the Weaving Bureau will set up a trading platform. ”

"On the fifth, fifteenth and twenty-fifth of each month, a silk trade fair will be organized, and those workshops will gather with you, and the workshops will post their monthly surplus production capacity and shipping price, and you can also put out the order quantity and order price, and you will automatically dock, if you value which ones, you can find them to sign an order, if they feel that they have the ability to undertake your order, they will also take the initiative to take orders!"

"Your Excellency wants to invite a weaving workshop from another province?" Dou Ren hurriedly asked, the workshops in Hangzhou, Huzhou and other places have signed agreements with the Weaving Bureau, and this year's production capacity has been contracted by the Weaving Bureau, even if they are invited, it will not help.

"There are also other provinces, of course, or locally-based, the next step will be the United Weaving Bureau, the formation of more silk weaving mills, you don't need to worry about the output problem, the fifth day of September, the Weaving Bureau will organize the first trade fair, if you are not at ease, you can wait until the fifth day of the first month, and then come and see." Lu Jing said.

"The Weaving Bureau set up a trade fair, one is to allow both of you to be open and transparent transactions, and the other is that the Weaving Bureau will act as a witness to your transaction, if you have any disputes due to orders in the future, the Weaving Bureau will be responsible for coordinating in the middle, and ensuring the interests of both of you in a fair and just manner."

"All orders in the weaving bureau will be exempted from certain taxes, yesterday the weaving bureau has negotiated with those weaving mills, they will only receive orders from the weaving bureau in the future, or take orders at the trade fair."

"Of course, in order to ensure that both of you can abide by the agreement, the silk weaving mill will pay a deposit at the weaving bureau after receiving the order, and you also need to pay a deposit."

"If you entrust the order to the Weaving Bureau, it is equivalent to signing an agreement with the Weaving Bureau, only need to pay one-third of the deposit, if it is in the Weaving Bureau, and the Weaving Workshop successfully signed an order, you need to pay half of the deposit, the Weaving Bureau will ensure that they are delivered on time and in quantity!"

"My lord, can you allow the villain to think about it for a few days before giving an answer to the adult?" Dou Ren asked a little nervously, for fear of angering Lu Jing and the others, now that he is alone, now that he has figured out the purpose of the Weaving Bureau looking for them, he needs to go back to someone to discuss.

"Hehe, of course you can, wait until the fifth day of the ninth month, and you will come over again, and you will know whether what the official said is true or false!" Lu Jing smiled disappreciatively.

"Lord Xie forgive, villain retires!" Dou Ren wiped the coldness on his forehead and hurriedly exited the room.

After a day of negotiations, there were very few silk merchants who entrusted the order to the Weaving Bureau, and most of them were waiting and watching, some wanted to unite against the Weaving Bureau, and some wanted to see what the trade would be like on the fifth day of September.

Lu Jing had already expected this situation, and it would be difficult to have any good effect if the same method was used for the second time.

Yesterday, the people in the silk weaving workshop had already gathered in private, and they also clearly knew the means of the weaving bureau, and at the same time, they also passed yesterday's events with these silk merchants, so most of the silk merchants came prepared today.

Hangzhou Silk Weaving Chamber of Commerce, not only Dou Ren, Tian Tao, Pang Lu and other 16 largest silk merchants in Hangzhou are present, Han, Cheng De and other eight largest weaving workshops in Hangzhou are also present.

"Now we have found out the purpose of the Weaving Bureau, they just want to pinch us in their hands, obey their orders, if we really do what the Weaving Bureau says, everyone, we will be completely controlled by others in the future, you all say it, how should we deal with it?" Dou Ren looked at everyone.

Han said helplessly: "We have signed an agreement with the Weaving Bureau yesterday, and there are people from the governor's yamen involved, even if you want to regret it, you have no choice!" ”

"Yes, the old man didn't expect the Weaving Bureau to use the order of the imperial court as bait to lure us into the bait, if we knew the news in advance, we would be so passive!" Cheng De said with an ugly face, originally he just wanted to take orders from the Weaving Bureau, make a small profit, and by the way, he had a good relationship with the Weaving Bureau, but he didn't expect it to be such a result today.

"It's because you've been broken one by one, we should be more united now!" Dou Ren said.

"What's the use of our unity, now that Brother Han and Brother Cheng have been tied to the Weaving Bureau, can we still let them turn against the Weaving Bureau!" Tian Tao said angrily.

"Now our inventory is almost exhausted, if there is no Brother Han and Brother Cheng, our shop will not last for a few months, and there will be no goods to sell, let alone be shipped to Qianxiang Country and Hanhai Country."

Dou Ren saw that everyone was in prison, and hurriedly stood up and said: "As far as I know, the imperial court has only signed an order for 300,000 horses with Qian Xiangguo, and Brother Han and Brother Cheng will have nothing to do when they complete these orders this year. ”

Tian Tao glared at Dou Ren and said, "I signed it this year, won't the court sign it next year?" ”

"Brother Tian is a little restless, and listen to the old man slowly, even if he signs next year, a season will be completed." Dou Ren said soothingly.

"If we all go to those workshops in Suzhou and Jiangning to sign contracts now, hehe, let's go, not to mention that Zhejiang's taxes will be reduced by one-third, it will also be greatly reduced, and even the governor's yamen may not be able to withstand it at that time, not to mention that the weaving bureau is less us, after the season next year, what list will be given to Brother Han and them?"

"Will the people from Jiangning and Suzhou let us pass?" Tian Tao asked rhetorically.

"It's a big deal to give them some benefits, and the Hangzhou Weaving Bureau will do this, Jiangning and Suzhou may not follow, we can join forces with them to resist this matter." Dou Ren said with a smile.

Then he comforted Han, Cheng De and others: "Brother Han, Brother Cheng don't have to worry, if the Hangzhou Weaving Bureau can continue to give you a list, it is naturally good, if not, you can also find the governor Yamen to sue the Weaving Bureau, and when this matter is completely resolved, we will follow the old rules in the future!" ”

"I think Brother Dou is a little whimsical, the reason why the imperial court chose the Hangzhou Weaving Bureau is not because we have more mulberry fields than Suzhou and Ningbo, and it is difficult for us to ensure the supply of raw silk, not to mention that Suzhou and Jiangning Sangtian are not as good as us."

"Some time ago, the imperial court also made a lot of trouble because of the change of mulberry fields, and the local needs of Suzhou and Jiangning are still difficult to meet, how can we still let us go over and grab food with them!" Tian Tao poured cold water.

"Hehe, Brother Tian can think of it, can't the old man think of it, what we did in previous years, this year is still the same, but this year's silk we collect will not be provided to Hangzhou, when there is no raw silk, the weaving bureau is like a source of water without roots, and we have to beg us when the time comes." Dou Ren said with a smile.

Han Buyue said: "Brother Dou, if you do this, you will trap us at a disadvantage, and if you can't complete the order at that time, the Weaving Bureau will investigate it, and we will be punished!" ”

"Brother Han, Brother Cheng, Brother Guo... Everyone, relax, the share of the eight of you will naturally leave enough for you, as for the rest, hehe, we can't take care of it! Dou Ren said with a smile.

"If we do this, it is equivalent to a complete face-to-face with the Weaving Bureau, I think we might as well collect all the raw silk first, and then let's talk to Lord Guo to see if we can negotiate a way to get the best of both worlds!" Pang Lu proposed.

"That's fine, if we can force them to give in, we don't have to bother so much!" Dou Ren nodded.

The political envoy is the yamen, and the back is the official office.

Lu Jing was introducing the agricultural cooperative to Su Youzhi: "My lord, the lower official suggested that the village and town should be used as a unit to establish a mulberry farmer cooperative. ”

"First, we can organize thousands of mulberry farmers to improve the standardization and scale of mulberry planting, improve their bargaining power, and form four unifications: unified planting, unified management, unified epidemic prevention, and unified sales."

"Second, it is also convenient for the management of the imperial court, and the Sannong cooperatives can transmit their actual situation and problems to the government in a timely manner, and the government can also accurately convey the policies of the imperial court to the people through the cooperatives, so as to avoid any misunderstandings between the two sides."

"Third, the next step is to prepare for the establishment of a joint venture workshop, so that the integration of agriculture, industry and commerce, and the integration of production and marketing of agriculture and commerce can be formed.

……

After Lu Jing introduced the methods and benefits of agricultural mutual aid cooperatives in detail, Su Youzhi asked thoughtfully: "Huaijin, can your method be extended to rice farmers?" ”

"Naturally, most of the agriculture is applicable, but the student suggests that it is mainly based on Sannong, if adults really want to promote, it is better to experiment on Sannong first, and then decide!" Lu Jing nodded and said, mulberry farmers and rice farmers are different, after all, mulberry planting is closer to the market, and organizing cooperatives is conducive to increasing their competitiveness in the market, but rice farmers are different, they grow rice for their own consumption, self-sufficiency is not enough, let alone selling, and the establishment of cooperatives is of little significance.

Su Youzhi nodded and said, "Yes, since the emperor has come to the decree and agreed to your proposal, the old man will definitely support you fully!" ”

Then he asked with some concern: "How do you plan to deal with the matter of changing rice to mulberry?" ”

"The new crop of rice, in mid-September can be harvested, after their autumn harvest, I plan to carry out two aspects, one is to carry out mulberry subsidies, adults also know that mulberry seedlings are planted, it will take April and May to grow young leaves, students will change rice to mulberry people, food subsidies, subsidize their rations for three months!"

"It's a good idea, but where does the money come from?" Su Youzhi frowned.

"The money naturally comes from the silk merchants and weavers, and the students will settle the matter themselves, and the adults will know when the time comes." Lu Jing explained.

Su Youzhi stared at Lu Jing for a long time with heavy eyes, and then nodded and said: "In this case, the old man is waiting to see how you act, even if you do it boldly, the old man will fully support you!" ”

"Thank you for your support!" Lu Jing thanked him, and then continued: "As long as they change the rice fields to mulberry fields, they will also set up cooperatives, so that they don't have to worry about the price of raw silk." ”

"And the cooperative is under the name of the Ministry of Commerce and the Weaving Bureau, and both of them will become shareholders, so they will be more at ease!"
