Twenty years of Xuande of the Great Dragon Dynasty.

The Gong family in Jiangzhou, Jiangnan Prefecture invaded the porcelain business of the Liujia family in Jinling, and finally the family fell into the middle of the road, and the whole family abandoned the ancestral house and fled to the northwest for a living, and the Gong family, which had been rampant in Jiangzhou for three hundred years, completely disappeared from the field of vision of the people in Jiangnan.

A century-old local business family was suppressed by wealthy businessmen in other places and had no way out, so they had to abandon their ancestral home and go to the northwest to make a living.

In the twenty-second year of Xuande of the Great Dragon Dynasty, the Wu family in Raozhou operated the silk business for generations, because they were dissatisfied with the Liu family and entered the silk business in Raozhou, and maliciously attacked the Liu family who had just arrived in Raozhou with an unstable foundation.

The Wu family in Raozhou was merged into the silk business of the Liu family, and eventually went to the next level.

Bit by bit about what the Liu family did in Jiangnan, everything slowly came to Hong Ping's mind, and only a few years have passed, how can he be confused and want to compete with the Liu family as soon as his brain is hot.

I don't know what happened to my Hong family, northwest or northeast?

"Master Hong, drink tea!"

"Huh?" Hong Ping, who was holding the teacup, came back to his senses: "Prince Xie Liu's tea." ”

The corners of Liu Mingzhi's mouth raised a chuckle: "Master Hong, I don't know why you came to my Liujia Horse Farm today?" I don't remember any business intersection between the two of us. ”

Hong Ping's face was calm and he was not annoyed by Liu Mingzhi's words, the form was not as good as people, so he could only bow his head and raise his eyebrows: "Liu Gongzi said that he laughed, Hong Mou came to buy a horse this time!" ”

Saying this sentence seemed to exhaust Hong Ping's strength, and Hong Ping's straight body involuntarily slumped to the chair, the words have already been said, life and death are in the sky, and I hope that the Liu family can give the Hong family a way to live.

The little kid Hong Tao shook his feet, put his hands on his knees and entertained himself, not knowing what their Hong family was going through and what would happen.

Ma Biao can be regarded as a five-body throw to the ground that Liu Mingzhi admires, before Hong Ping came to the door, Ma Biao thought that he might have come to buy horses, but he didn't expect Hong Ping to be so straightforward.

"Young master, since the Hong family master ........."

Liu Mingzhi raised his hand and interrupted Ma Biao's words: "Uncle Ma, I have my own arrangements. ”

Ma Biao sat quietly and stopped talking, since Liu Zhian handed over this matter to Liu Mingzhi to deal with, he naturally had his reasons, whether it was a loss or a profit was no longer Ma Biao's business.

"Master Hong, I have a question, I don't know if you can solve a question or two for me?"

Hong Ping bowed his head respectfully: "Liu Gongzi, but it doesn't hurt to say it, Hong Ping must know everything and say everything." ”

"Hey, it doesn't have to be like this, it's just a little problem, I want to know if you came to buy horses to compensate for the loss of the Liu family and appease the anger of the Liu family, or do you really buy horses and want to run this business for a living?"

Hong Ping's face changed and changed, he didn't know how to answer this sentence, but he gritted his teeth and said what he said in his heart: "Hong didn't dare to hide Liu Gongzi, this time he came to buy horses to really want to run this business, Hong had already informed Liu Gongzi that Yangzhou's business was not as good as one day, and Hong also wanted to make a living for the Hong family. ”

Looking at Hong Ping, who was in his early forties, he said that he was old and wanted to laugh, but he also understood what these people thought, life is rare for seventy years, and forty years old seems to be indeed an advanced age now.

"Your Hong family ordered a Hu horse to flow into Yangzhou, causing Yangzhou's horse business to become saturated this year, and there are not many opportunities for a thousand horses from my Liujia horse farm to sell out, and they will definitely be smashed in their hands, does the Hong family want to bear the loss of the Liu family?"

"Liu Gongzi rest assured, Hong can sell these good horses to other places."

"Suzhou, Hangzhou, Raozhou, Jiangzhou, Jizhou, Shaozhou, Yongzhou all have the business of Liujia horses, and the horses in the south of the Yangtze River have been saturated, where do you want to sell them? The Land of the Northwest? ”

Hong Ping's face was a little ugly, Liu Mingzhi said really good, these horses are going to be smashed in their hands, not to mention the northwest, Jiangnan is not suitable for raising horses, most of the horses come in from the northwest, and it is definitely not possible to sell them in the northwest, not to mention the loss of consumption on the road, just the price of horses is not good, the northwest can raise horses, the price of horses is definitely lower than that of Jiangnan, and the high-priced horses from Jiangnan are not enough to support it?

"Please also ask Liu Gongzi to show the way for the Hong family."

Liu Mingzhi first glanced at Hong Ping, who looked sad and pleading, and then looked at the innocent Hong Tao and sighed slightly, the Hong family can now take out 500,000 taels of silver to invest in the Liujia Horse Farm, but they are so low eyebrows and ears to themselves as a gentleman, is the Liu family's momentum already so big?

Shinong businessmen, businessmen, and businessmen have this momentum, and they don't know whether it is a blessing or a curse for the Liu family.

"Master Hong."

"Yes."

Liu Mingzhi, who quietly changed his tone, didn't want to correct it: "I don't know whose business in Yangzhou City is in the timber business?" The biggest business to do? ”

Hong Ping first glanced at Liu Mingzhi strangely and said respectfully: "Young Master Liu, the Hong family is the one who has done the most timber business in Yangzhou City?" ”

"Oh? Is it such a coincidence? ”

"The young master doesn't know, the Hong family has been in the timber business for three generations, and the generation of the Hong family is the fourth generation." Ma Biao explained in due course.

"That's better, don't bother the two masters, since your Hong family is in charge of timber, it's better."

"What does Liu Gongzi mean?"

"Master Hong, what does your timber business consist of?"

"Tables, chairs, furniture, carriages, horses, ships, house construction, Liu Gongzi doesn't know, this table, chair and furniture is used for several years, the house may live for a lifetime, and the timber business is not as good as a year."

"And carriages and other businesses?"

"Exactly, the Hong family has a business that specializes in building carriages."

"In that case, I don't know how many horses the Hong family master wants to buy this time?"

Hong Ping pondered a few times: "A thousand horses, this is the only silver that Hong can come up with, and the Hong family still has to spend silver to do some timber business, although the recession is after all, it is the business started by the Hong family, and it cannot be lost." ”

Liu Mingzhi silently calculated, a thousand horses seemed to be not enough, and it was better to have fifteen hundred horses.

"Then fifteen hundred horses, make a whole one."

One thousand horses is also an integer, but Hong Ping didn't dare to say: "Then listen to Liu Gongzi's fifteen hundred is fifteen hundred, and Hong will go home immediately to raise money." ”

"Wait."

"Young Master Liu?"

"These 1,500 good horses are worth 90,000 taels of silver, and my Liu family won't take a penny from your Hong family and give it to you?"

Hong Ping opened his mouth: "Send.... Give it to me? ”

"Don't worry, I haven't finished talking yet, these 1,500 good horses can be given to you, but my Liu family and your Hong family want to do a business together, and my Liu family will account for seventy percent."

"What business is worth investing 100,000 taels of silver? Hong was shallow and asked Liu Gongzi to give advice. ”

"Bus.... Transportation business. ”
