"That's right!" Wen Tong was also exhausted by this non-stop business war. "Even if Guangzhou sends me the silver, how many days will it last?" Sooner or later, there will be a showdown! Now that there are people from Beiwei here, just take Haiyitang to a pot and see what kind of demon moths they can make! ”

"Sniped the head of Haiyitang, saying that it was heavenly!"

It's a pity that Bei Wei hasn't come back yet, and I don't know where he went. Can't reach him again! ”

"He's been out for more than two weeks, and he should be back soon, and besides, the executive committee must have a way to contact him." At this time, Wen Tong had already had an idea, "We will send a report to the Executive Committee in the evening, asking for decisive measures to be taken to counter the enemy's provocations. ”

At this time, even if Haiyitang is characterized from a commercial opponent as an "enemy", what is the way to treat the enemy, Uncle Lei Feng has already explained it very clearly.

"I think it's better not to do anything, let Beiwei lead people to have a special assault on Haiyitang, kill one or two of the leaders, and the rest will naturally be terrified. Let's go in again, buy their industry at a low price, and immediately dominate the Leizhou sugar market! ”

"This one is too vicious. It's nothing short of a robbery. Xiao Gui immediately objected, "Besides, the people of Leizhou are not stupid, so everyone knows that we are the masterminds behind the scenes, the local gentry." There are also officials, who are afraid and defensive of us, and it will be difficult to carry out work in the future. ”

"Definitely. You can kill a person, or burn down some of their properties, and let them know how good we are. Naturally, the flag died down. If you want to play really, we are not afraid. ”

"This is not good, how to say that people are also native national capital, is it a bit of a monopoly group bullying the market when we do this." Merlin, the conciliator, hesitantly objected.

"They're the monopolies." Wen Tong said, "Why don't you keep making a suggestion?" ”

"Well, that's what I thought," Merlin said, "can we share the carrots with a stick." Haiyitang is now out of interest considerations, and if he wants to force us away, he didn't use any drastic means in the end, so we killed the killer like this - whether it was killing a few people or preparing to burn someone's house, it was always a bit too much, right? He saw that everyone was looking at him, and seemed to have a lot of disdain, but the words had already come out, and he had to continue, "Let's just say kill people, kill people, people are afraid of you, this crisis can probably be over." But the enmity is also settled - a person has family, relatives, friends, there are always a few hard-boned or deadly, and they will come to us in the future to do the same? There are only a thousand days to be a thief, and there is no thousand days to prevent thieves. ”

"Then kill again. What are you afraid of! Kill all men, women, and children - no chickens and dogs! Wen Tong's face was gloomy and murderous, and it seemed that intellectuals were more terrifying than ordinary reckless men when they started to kill.

"Kill them all?!" Merlin was even more disapproving, "It's not so easy to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and besides, the methods are too cruel, which will inevitably arouse the anger of the people." If you were an ordinary person, would you be willing to deal with a company that kills people at every turn and destroys the whole family? ”

When everyone heard this, it also made sense, Chen Tianxiong said: "Lao Mei is reasonable, but there is no way to make sense at the moment, do you have any ideas?" ”

"I have an idea, but I don't know if it's going to work." Merlin said that if you just go and talk to Haiyitang, they have seen the processing and production capacity of the sugar factory anyway, and there is actually room for cooperation between the two sides. Tempting these sugar merchants with joint equity participation, so that we will have much less resistance to controlling the sugar industry in Leizhou.

"However," Merlin's words changed, "as we are now, Haiyitang will chase it to the end, and now we will negotiate." There will certainly be no results. ”

"You're talking a bunch of nonsense for a long time." Wen Tong was disappointed.

"Hmph, to say that I didn't agree with such a hurry to go to Leizhou to open a mine." Merlin said disapprerovingly, "Now our shili is not big, and the prestige is not enough to 'shock and suppress Xiaoxiao' on the coast, and the appearance of a big fat sheep comes to Leizhou to make money, and it is strange if you don't take a knife." ”

"Don't say anything like that, just say something like that," Chen Tianxiong said, "If you talk too much, it won't help......"

When the donkey skills were poor, someone suddenly came to report: "Someone is coming from Guangzhou!" ”

When everyone heard this, their spirits were lifted, and Wen Tong hurriedly said, "Please come in!" ”

Wu De's arrival gave everyone a shot of stimulant, especially when he saw that the executive committee sent a big leader at the level of executive committee members to personally transport the silver for Leizhou Sugar Company, and the originally somewhat panicked mood was stabilized.

"Don't be nervous." As soon as Wu De entered the office, he knew what they were thinking by looking at the expressions on their faces, "Silver, what we have." The Executive Committee will try to mobilize it for you, and we will definitely win this sugar war. ”

Then he handed a receipt of 50,000 taels of silver to Wen Tong, and he signed it. This amount will be offset by sugar in the future.

Hearing that 50,000 taels of silver had arrived in Hai'an Port, Wu De made another statement, and the silver in the hands of the Executive Committee had always been rich, and everyone was relieved. Among them, Chen Tianxiong is experienced in society, and when he saw that a ship on Dengyingzhou only sent 50,000 taels of silver, he knew in his heart that money would never come as easily as Wu De said.

"Okay, let's talk about the current situation." Wude said.

Wen Tong talked about the current situation in general, since the squeeze occurred, they have collected 3,500 stone of sugar, this speed is still the result of South China deliberately filling the speed, but the consequence of slowing down is that the squeeze at the door is getting worse and worse.

"We're all worried, and now it's in front of the South China Gate. Almost every day, there are 1,200 people and hundreds of cattle stranded, the ground is full of garbage, the smell is very strong, and now the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and if it is not good, there will be an epidemic.

"There are many people, and all kinds of rumors are flying all over the sky, which is very bad for us.

"There are at least 150,000 stone sugar outside ready to be sold to us, if we still collect it so slowly, Zuihou will cause two results: one is that the sugar cane farmers will suffer losses due to the deterioration of the sugar, and the other is that they can't wait, so they have to sell it to the sugar store under Haiyitang at a market price of one or two or five yuan. We're damaged at both ends. ”

Wu De frowned: "Is there such a situation? ”

"Yes, some sugarcane farmers who are heavily indebted may not be able to support them for a few days. In the past few days, we have also learned a lot about the situation that those sugarcane farmers who have borrowed debts are forced by the creditors to cash in. ”

Zuihou is the last thing Wen Tong wants to see, once it becomes a reality: the reputation gained by the efforts made by South China Sugar Co., Ltd. these days will be completely wiped out, and the benefits of low-priced sugar will be taken away by Haiyitang, and South China will be discredited.

Wu De listened very carefully, and when Zuihou asked them what their countermeasures were, Wen Tong did not hide it, and told him the results of everyone's discussion:

"One, is to open the door. Try to acquire as soon as possible, zuihou we gain fame and fortune. Of course, this is on the premise of being able to mobilize enough silver," Wen Tong touched his forehead, "This is naturally a great joy for everyone, and our situation will be easy to open up in the future." If there is no money, everyone can only use violent means to discuss it, and the results will be immediate, but the follow-up situation will be difficult to clean up. ”

After he finished, he said: "Now that the life and death of South China in Leizhou have come to a point, the executive committee must make up its mind as soon as possible!" ”

"The idea has been decided." Wu De knew that he must not say discouraged words at this time, "You speed up the acquisition." Money. The Executive Committee has done everything possible to raise funds, and you must stabilize your position, use violent means carefully, easy to use and difficult to end! The more critical the moment, the more calm you must be, and never ask others to tell the truth. This year's Leizhou sugar must be taken down! He thought for a moment, "I'll go back to Lingao tonight and ask for an emergency meeting to discuss this matter." ”

"Okay, that's for the best." Wen Tong heard that the bigwigs of the executive committee were willing to pat his chest, and his spirits perked, "As long as the executive committee makes up its mind, we will make up our minds." Tomorrow we will increase the speed of sugar purchases. ”

"How many stones can you do per day?"

"Now it's 700 to 800 stones, and if you open up and speed up the acquisition, 1,500 stones a day will be no problem."

1,500 stone a day, 50,000 taels can be topped for almost half a month. In half a month, Wu De estimated that Guangzhou would definitely be able to mobilize enough positions.

Wen Tong took care of Liao Dahua and others, and went to prepare ox carts, laborers, and dart masters, and prepared Shanghai Angang to transport silver.

"Do you want to be transported at night? In this way, Haiyitang can't figure out our bottom clearly. Merlin said.

Chen Tianxiong said: "No, our hole cards, Haiyitang already knows." Hai'an Street was originally their world, and we couldn't hide it from them at all when we played this little trick. ”

Liao Dahua was also very happy when he heard that a large sum of money had arrived—unlike Wen and them, he had a blind sense of worship for Guo Dongzhu in Guangzhou, and now when he heard that the ship from Guangzhou had sent silver, he felt more and more that the energy of this proprietor was great. This also made a joke: "It is inconvenient to transport silver at night, the porter who is blind in the black light can't see clearly, the road is not close, and it is difficult for the dart master to escort it, so it is better to do it during the day." Fifty thousand taels of silver is a lot of money no matter what, and now the people outside are unstable, so they simply make an appearance! ”

Wu De nodded approvingly: "Yes, just make an appearance and express our determination." Since the battle has been fought, it is necessary to convince the people of this Leizhou Mansion! ”

"There is one more thing," Wen Tong said, "now that we have a lot of sugar in stock, since Deng Yingzhou is here, we will simply transport a shipload of sugar to Guangzhou." Guo Yi said that it can be realized if it is shipped over......"

"Yes, yes," Wu De knocked his head, "I forgot about this festival, can you sell it while you collect it, and if you ship it in small quantities like this, maybe the price can be maintained." However, this matter involves the issue of ship deployment, and we will discuss it together when we go back. ”

Zhu An has been staying in Haiyi Hall during the day these days, firstly, he always pays attention to the movements in South China - it is not very convenient for people to come and go in the house, and secondly, he cheers up the sugar shops, seeing that the cane farmers do not come to sell sugar, and the stack houses are empty, and this kind of torment is indeed unbearable for ordinary people. After all, the sugar squeezing season is only three months, and now that half of it has passed, the twenty-one sugar stores have only collected less than 50,000 stones, and the shopkeeper of any sugar store will be in a hurry. From time to time, there are sugar shopkeepers or proprietors who can't sit still and come here to complain, and I wish the third master to take the trouble to appease and assure. is also thanks to his prestige on weekdays, everyone is convinced, and the situation is finally maintained.

The development of things was exactly the same as Zhu Sanye's expectations, as the sugar stores under Haiyitang adjusted the price of sugar, almost all the sugar cane farmers flocked to South China, and only in the first few days did a few unheard sugar cane farmers endure the pain of selling sugar on Hai'an Street, and then, the people who sold sugar were almost completely extinct.

Although on the first day of the price change, Zhao Jijiao's rotten boy had the opportunity to break the situation in South China, but the other party's reaction was also very fast, and the situation was immediately controlled, and several eyeliners he arranged in South China were all replaced, although it was a pity to lose these eyeliners, but it had nothing to do with the overall situation. These days, he not only arranged for people to keep an eye on South China all the time, and all kinds of trends were constantly reported, but he also went to see it a few times in person. Zhu Sanye knows that South China can't stand it for too long.

There are two reasons, one is that everyone knows that South China sent people out to adjust their positions, which is the most obvious sign -- the money is not tight, and no one will pay this high interest; Article 2: He found that in the last two days in South China, although there were four scales in the place where the scales were crossed, only three were used regularly, and the other was only used occasionally.

South China's slowing down the speed of weighing only shows that their silver root has reached the imminent stage of emptiness, and they have to slow down the speed to survive.

Zhu Sanye knew that the time to launch a fatal blow was coming. Within three days, the South China Sugar Store would be completely under his hands.

The only pity is that, according to the report of the people he sent to Guangzhou, South China seems to have a lot of connections with the Gao Ju family in Guangzhou, who he has also heard of, and is a wealthy merchant who colludes with maritime merchants. There is such a relationship.,He had to stop the trick of killing all the people in his original jihua.,Although he's not afraid of the Gao family.,But this kind of opponent with shili is better to have less.。

Fortunately, without these methods, the remaining few tricks are enough to make South China close. This will be his way to teaching his men a lesson.

"Then take people everywhere to find those big money lenders to the sugar farmers, and ask them to step up the debt to the sugar sugar farmers!" I wish the third master's eyes to shine.

"Yes, Third Master!" Although the assigned person agreed to be refreshed, he hesitated, "It's just the third master, it's natural for creditors to force debts, but if South China is forced down, won't the sugare farmers only sell their goods at the market of one or two or five yuan?" Will the creditors worry that the sugarcane farmers will not be able to repay their debts-" (!) )
