"One is the price of sugar this year. ()"Zhu Sanye has already calculated in his heart, "You have to press down hard!" As soon as his sugar store opened the scales, we set the price of each stone at one or two and a half cents. ”

Everyone was stunned for a while, this price was ridiculously low. In previous years, when the annual situation was the most haode, the price of sugar was low, and one stone could get two taels of silver, and the harvest could rise to more than four taels in the year. I wish the third master to open his mouth is one or two or five dollars, and now a stone of brown rice outside is sold for two taels! Sugar farmers are still not making trouble?

"This year's annual income is also Zhongping, and the price is two or five dollars according to the old practice of the old year, and it has been collected for more than half a month. As soon as it has dropped so much, we can't say how many years it has been a ...... old business" is opposed by Feng Guangfeng, the boss of "Richang Ji". "Richang Ji" is relatively small in the sugar shop, and this Feng Guangfeng is not from Shanguang - he was born as a man, and he became the shopkeeper only after marrying the only daughter of the owner, and he is very looked down upon in this Haiyi Hall.

However, what he said also touched everyone's hearts. Doing business pays attention to long-term cooperation, and both buyers and sellers pay attention to leaving a leeway. In this way, there is a pimple between him and the cane farmers.

Seeing that everyone was hesitating, Zhu Sanye sneered: "It's okay! Now everyone knows that the South China Sugar Factory produces a lot of sugar, so we deduce that because they make too much sugar, they can't sell it in other places, so the price has fallen. ”

"Will this work?!"

"Weishenme can't do it? If the cane farmers are willing to sell at this price, we will make a profit. Besides, you can't blame us for this sugar price reduction. Wasn't it from the South China Sugar Factory? There is a wrong, a debt, and a master...... "Although the more I say the words of the third master, the lower the voice." Everyone understood, some secretly applauded, and some broke out in a cold sweat.

"Wonderful!" The shopkeeper who was about to pull the road and dump the corpse just now called out: it can not only let them eat a dull stick, but also not completely tear their faces with the South China factory, in case they want to reconcile, there is a way out.

"But it's risky." The old man said, "His opening of the scale must be the latest market!" Now that Guangzhou's market is good, he will not lose if he adds three taels and one stone. Our price is low, his price is high, didn't we send the goods to him in vain? "Since just now, he has been worried that the South China factory will buy sugar.

"No way." Zhu Sanye is very confident, "In the three counties of Leizhou, the average New Year's sugar must have more than 200,000 stones. The price of the South China factory was high, so the sugar naturally went to him. But you do the math: even if he takes a third! If he has more than 100,000 taels of silver, where can he find this lot of silver? Besides, the world is so chaotic now, how dare he casually transport such a sum of money to Leizhou? When the time comes, it will not be so easy to think of not collecting sugar when there is no money, who else is the only one in Leizhou who has a large amount of cash but us? If he is stuck tightly, he will be pressed with interest, and even if he can't be crushed, he will be so bad that he vomits blood! ”

Everyone thinks this plan is feasible: the goods that can only be eaten by 21 sugar stores are now thrown to a factory in South China to eat, and they must choke to death.

"I'm not afraid of just in case, I'm afraid of 10,000." The old shopkeeper was still worried, "What if he really dares to bring silver?" What if they had already prepared the money? It's a trivial thing that we didn't receive sugar this season, but it's just a year less money, and I'm afraid that we will smash the brand from now on......"

When the shopkeepers heard this, they felt that there was some truth and couldn't help but sway. Zhu Sanye saw that an old man was entangled, and said coldly: "If you want to do something, you are afraid of this!" In my opinion, it's best to do nothing. Anyway, the South China factory acquired it, and we also acquired it. There is always a lot to collect, and if they are willing to ship the sugar out, let them be lucky. ”

There is a hint of picking on the child, and some of the brains know that he probably has a backhand. At the moment, they all said that they were willing to do so. Zhu Sanye continued:

"Second, from today onwards, when everyone usually talks to outsiders, they have to give something to South China from time to time, understand? You can't say bad things openly, but you have to have this meaning in it: for example, this big iron mill, and that chimney or something, they are all things that have never been seen before, as the saying goes, 'abnormality is a demon'. ”

Everyone thought that this trick was enough to damage it. However, because of monopoly interests, although this group of people is a serious businessman, they are not good men and women. It's not like I haven't done murder and arson.

"zuihou," Zhu Sanye said, "Every year, each family is usually ninety-eight deductions, and this year, these two deductions have to be handed over to Haiyitang for one deduction - it doesn't matter if I give everyone an errand, my subordinates always have to give a few errands, and it costs money to see people to inquire about things." Haiyitang now has only four or five hundred taels on the books of the public middle school, which is not enough. ”

The shopkeepers were a little hurt when they heard this, and the so-called ninety-eight buckle rule was the handling fee when the sugar cane farmers handed over the sugar to the sugar store for consignment in the past. Later, although it was changed to cash silver to collect sugar, the bad rules of ninety-eight buckles have been retained. It was a big profit for each family. Now that I want to take it out, I feel a little unwilling.

Zhu Sanye said: "Don't be bitter, after the matter is done, the inventory of the sugar factory will be all ours, and the price of sugar has also been smashed to one or two or five dollars, and the interest here is not big?" The money that is still staring at this point is not calculated! ”

And so it was settled. According to the size of the bank, the shopkeeper of each bank first paid a sum of silver in advance to the public account of Haiyi Hall for Zhu Sanye to use at any time. Because the matter was settled, everyone felt hungry, and they sat down to eat and drink.

Zhu Sanye didn't eat a few bites, so he said that there was still something at home, and he took the little maid back first. His family's house is only four or five shops away from here, and the house is one, so you don't need to go out to do things in the industry, and even the guests don't have to go to the street, you can go directly to the house of another sugar store directly from the corner door, so that the family can pass through.

This is also forced to be helpless, although over the years through the "Haiyi Hall" to hold group exercises, befriending the government and all kinds of sea owners, there are very few things that come to disturb Hai'an, but small-scale robbery and kidnapping still often happen, so the sugar shop mansion is connected by courtyard walls, connected to each other by corner gates, the streets and alleys are equipped with fences, high walls and deep houses, forming a closed community. Ordinary pirates and bandits have no idea where to start.

I wish the third master to wear the preparation of several sugar stores in a row and return to his house. After a little washing, I called the housekeeper next to me:

"Go. Call me Zhao Jijiao. As he spoke, he closed his eyes and recuperated. Inquired about the background of the South China factory, and when the Qiwei Dart Bureau bought a large amount of land in the local area to buy Tangliao, he sent a capable man. At that time, I just felt that it was necessary to inquire about a dart game to buy these properties, but I didn't expect this move to be really right! He was smug: Otherwise, if you send someone to go now, Guangzhou is more than a thousand miles away from here, and it will not take more than ten days to come and go by boat! It's really daylily that is cold.

Before going to the hall, he actually knew the basic background of the South China factory. As he expected, there was another proprietor behind the game, and as for who this proprietor was, the buddies didn't figure it out - the dart masters had always kept their mouths tight, and the ordinary guys didn't know. But about Lu Yizhong's post, I still heard some news from the trustee who turned around the corner: Lu Yizhong's post is clearly priced, as long as you can support someone, you can get one for one or two hundred taels.

In this way, it is unlikely that this proprietor is an official figure, judging from the fact that he wants to spend money to buy Lu Yizhong's post as a talisman, I am afraid that he does not have much background in the official mansion - he is really rich.

With these basic data, Zhu Sanye will have a bottom on what he should do next. What he did just now was just a show for his peers to see, pressuring them to act according to their own jihua.

"The first amazing, the first amazing, I suddenly saw a little maid like a fairy, Qu'e eyebrows swept the innocent charm is rare in the world, see her autumn waves gently sent, extraordinarily bright. I intend to plant flowers. Just about to take advantage of the fresh flowers ......"

was humming a little song, and the housekeeper said that Zhao Ji's feet had arrived.

"Call in."

As he spoke, a man in his thirties came in, dressed neatly and neatly, looking like a shopkeeper in a shop, but standing on the ground, his head was moving, and his eyes were rolling. At first glance, you can tell that it is not a character who does his duty. Zhao Jijiao is a rotten boy, and on weekdays, he takes a group of rotten boys to mix in the Zou Monk Temple on Hai'an Street, and Haiyitang sends them some money and rice every month, first, to prevent them from causing trouble, and secondly, to be able to do dirty work when needed.

"Xiao Zhao, you will send all your people to the street." Zhu Sanye spoke very slowly. "Let them spread the word like this—" he said, repeating the preparation of the haode belly.

"Written it all down?"

"The little ones are all written down!" Zhao Jijiao nodded.

"This is fifty taels of silver. You go and scatter them first! ”

"Thank you, Master."

"Also, choose a few of your people and tell them to wait. Around these days, the South China Sugar Factory will recruit people, and you want them to be on call to work in the factory at any time. If they want to work harder at that time, just work hard for a month or two, and I will naturally reward them when they are done. ”

"Recruit guys, this has to be guaranteed." Zhao Jijiao was a little embarrassed.

"It's okay! I'll take care of the matter. Just prepare the people and clean them up! ”

"Yes, it's just that you still have to have money for pen and cleaning...... "Zhao Jijiao's eyes were spinning, wanting to take the opportunity to make more money.

Zhu Sanye "snorted": "I haven't developed your reward yet, so let's get out of this money first!" ”

Hearing that he still had a silver reward, Zhao Jijiao's interest suddenly came up: "This matter is wrapped up in the little brother." "I went in a hurry.

Seeing Zhao Jijiao go out, Zhu Sanye's heart was still a little unbearable. He decided: It is better to send someone to Guangzhou again to check on their bottom again

"If there's really no way to get there, just cook it! That's a good sugar factory. There was a look of greed on Zhu Sanye's face.

The traversers in the South China Sugar Factory were busy preparing for the opening of the sugar store at this time. In order to facilitate management, the location of the sugar store is in Nanmentang, where the South China Sugar Factory is located, which is actually a branch of the sugar factory. The gate is next to Xu Wen's official road leading to Hai'an Street. Merlin not only repaired the cabinet of the new sugar store, but also organized migrant workers to repair this section of the official road and re-erect several crumbling bridges -- doing a good job in infrastructure construction is a consistent prerequisite for crossing the masses to engage in industry and commerce. As for the common people, they are just curious about the road construction method of using oxen to drag large stone rollers back and forth on the road.

The plaque of the sugar store was inscribed by the county magistrate of the county, and his handwriting was relatively cheap, only thirty taels of silver, a few bottles of good wine, and a few horses of Western cloth and brocade for his wife. As soon as the cabinet room was completed, the gold plaque was hung up. The pillars on both sides are asked to be inscribed by the well-known eunuchs of this county. These are all amulet-like things. Crossing the crowd is also following the local customs.

In order to facilitate communication with the locals and avoid language misunderstandings, Wen Tong recruited a few local guys in the county to serve as supporters and scales on the counter. He wanted to invite a sugar shopkeeper to the matter has not been implemented, the two brothers of the Wen family are too young, Zuihou had to ask Liao Dahua to come out, saying that as long as he has been a shopkeeper, Liao Dahua is also virtuous and does not avoid relatives, and recommended one of his cousins, named Liao Daxing, this Liao Daxing has not been a shopkeeper, only in a grain store in Haikang County for several years as a big guy on the counter. Although Mandarin is not very good, the Guangzhou vernacular is still spoken well, and the rules of doing business are also understood. Wen Tong knew that it would be impossible for the sugar store to ask kao, and these people would not be able to do it - they were all laymen, and they had to sit in charge of it themselves. Fortunately, the sugar factory is running normally. The operation of the equipment has also been improved by Chen Tianxiong, and he can put more energy into the sugar business.

Liao Daxing had just been promoted, and he heard from his cousin that the proprietor was very wealthy, had a bold hand, and worked very hard. Although the grain store is different from the sugar store, it is also indispensable to buy and sell things, and there are many places where the rules are similar. The affairs in the sugar store were all taken care of one by one, and Wen Tong felt that it was much easier - after all, he was born in Jishu, and he was not very good at business.

After some market research, Wen Tong and Liao Daxing agreed that they would buy it according to the current market on Hai'an Street, and not increase the price, so as not to stimulate the local sugar store.

"Get rid of this bad rule." Wen Tong hated this kind of unspoken rules and the like.

"Not yet." Chen Tianxiong advised, "Don't make too much trouble, it's not good. ”

"I have a plan, the rules of the ninety-eight buckles can be retained," Chang Shide suddenly came up with an idea, "but take it from the people and the people." Lay the foundation for the future combination of Lao Wen's sugar industry. ”

"What's the plan?"

Chang Shide's plan is to use these two deductions as a kind of "mutual fund", which will be used to issue loans and subsidies to those who will participate in the sugar industry in the future.

“…… Anyone who sells sugar to us has to be deducted twice, but if he doesn't join us, he won't be able to enjoy loans and subsidies, and people will not suffer the most of these things, and it will be much easier for you to implement the sugar industry combination at that time. ”

"Do you still have to explain it to the people on the counter? Or convene a meeting to explain? ”(！ )
