Chapter 559: Hoarding
The most clever part of this strategy is that the prince Zhu Cihong can silently calculate, and without his knowledge, completely destroy the plan to control Miyun County.
In the past, the Jin merchants never won in the face of Zhu Shun, so that the eight Jin merchants became the five major Jin merchants.
That's because Zhu Shun has unsolvable industrial magic in his hands, not to mention them, even the Donglin Party, which is in power and opposition, can only be crushed in the face of this kind of witchcraft.
In the face of this industrial demon, there is no way to confront it head-on for the time being, but as long as they can skillfully avoid Zhu Shun's sight and not be targeted by Zhu Shun, it can be regarded as indirectly avoiding industrial demonism.
The matter of raising the price of grain can help the five Jin merchants skillfully avoid Zhu Shun's targeting, after all, this is just a normal hoarding.
Without Zhu Shun's targeting, they would naturally not be crushed by industrial demonism, and their strategy would have succeeded.
The big housekeeper of the Fan family knocked lightly on the table: "The strategy is not bad, but there is a little flaw, and it is also the biggest loophole in our strategy." ”
"If you want to raise and save all the people in a whole county in a short period of time, there are only two ways, one is to go to the bureaucratic squire Zhuangzi to buy it."
"With the incompatible relationship between the industrialists and the bureaucratic gentry, let alone buying grain to save the people of the county, even a grain of grain will not be sold to them."
"This road is impassable, and the other way is to mobilize a large amount of grain from the granaries of various state capitals to help the victims."
"Don't worry about the granaries outside Shuntianfu, with the help of the Donglin Party, the officials who manage the granaries have a way to deal with the requisition of grain."
"Don't worry about the granaries of Shuntianfu, after all, these granaries are directly controlled by the household department, and we have a way to resell all this grain from the hands of the Donglin Party."
"There is no grain in the granary of Shuntian Mansion, even if the crown prince Zhu Cihong wants to rob it, there is no way, and it is not so easy to grab food outside Shuntian Mansion."
"After all, the state capitals other than Shuntian Mansion are not like Shuntian Mansion in the hands of the industrial faction, and a large number of officers and soldiers can be temporarily transferred from various inspection divisions of Shuntian Mansion."
"As a result, both roads are blocked, but you have forgotten about Song's Mill."
"Every year, Song's Mill stores a large amount of potato flour in case of emergency, which is to prevent various disasters and provide relief to the victims."
What the Fan family's chief butler said was exactly what the other four big housekeepers were worried about, and it was also the biggest flaw in this strategy.
As long as this loophole can be plugged, the crown prince Zhu Cihong will really lose the ability to mobilize food, and he will be able to starve all the people in Miyun County to death.
The big housekeeper of the Wang family dared to say this strategy, and he was fully prepared, but he didn't say it directly, he was drinking tea calmly.
The other four big housekeepers saw him like this, they had been friends for many years, and they had been intriguing for most of their lives, how could they not understand what the big housekeeper of the Wang family meant.
The big housekeeper of the Wang family wants to fight for the dominance of this time for the master, lead this time to snatch the Miyun Business Road, and plan unimaginable benefits for the five Jin merchant Wang families.
There is a limited number of caravans that can walk on the Gubeikou Trade Road every year, and although the upper limit of this limit is very high, no one thinks that they earn more money.
Whoever can lead this strategy will have more shares of the caravan in the future, and will be able to earn more silver.
This is just the simplest way to earn money, which also involves the influence within the Donglin Party and the Qing Dynasty, which greatly improves the prestige and status of the Wang family.
As long as the other four stewards are given a certain amount of time, they can also think of a foolproof plan, but what is most lacking now is time.
Although he is very unwilling, but when it comes to this, he can only temporarily unite and fight for the Gubeikou trade road.
The chief housekeeper of the Fan family and the other three housekeepers glanced at each other, and they all nodded slightly, which was regarded as a tacit acquiescence to the meaning of the Wang family's chief housekeeper.
The chief housekeeper of the Wang family saw that the other four big housekeepers nodded, so he stopped selling Guanzi, and continued: "This is very easy to do, I have already greeted Liu Zehong under the command of the head of the army, Dashou." ”
"In the name of Man Gui, he will send a letter to the Song family, saying that Shanhaiguan is in urgent need of food."
"Use the Liaodong horses in Shanhaiguan to exchange for food, as long as the Song family agrees to this matter, it is not easy to empty the potato flour stored by the Song family."
As for whether the Song family will agree, the five big housekeepers are very sure that with the Song family's sentiment of serving the country wholeheartedly, not to mention exchanging it for Liaodong Malaysia, it will be given away for nothing, and all the potato flour in the reserve will be transported to Shanhaiguan.
Although the big housekeeper of the Fan family was very uncomfortable in his heart, the other party took the lead with a prepared one, but no matter what, this time it can be regarded as his superior skills: "Mr. Wang is smart, and Fan is ashamed." ”
The Fan family, one of the five major Jin merchants, and Fan Wencheng, the first hero of the founding of the Qing Dynasty, are of the same clan, and the Fan family is so proud that it is said that the five major Jin merchants have never put their own family and the other four major Jin merchants in the same position.
Now the chief housekeeper of the Fan family, that is, the second master of the Fan family, actually praised the chief housekeeper of the Wang family, and he couldn't help but be a little complacent: "Brother Fan, what is this saying, Wang is just a fluke." ”
said that it was a fluke, the other three big housekeepers, including the Fan family's chief housekeeper, knew very well in their hearts, presumably for this one luck, the Wang family's chief housekeeper didn't know how many brains he racked and how many days and nights he didn't sleep.
Now that the strategy has been finalized, the five Jin merchants are now very short of time, so they will not be wasted here.
The chief housekeeper of the Wang family was the first to stand up, arched his hand, and sighed deliberately: "Because of the incident at the coal washing plant, the Wang family doesn't have much silver in their hands." ”
"In order to eat all the granaries of Shuntianfu, I can only sell the industry, if I really lose it, the Wang family will be ruined."
When the chief housekeeper of the Fan family and the others saw that the chief housekeeper of the Wang family was cheap and behaved, they inevitably felt a trace of anger in their hearts, and they really wanted to punch his old face.
Still lost? Which time the Jin merchants hoarded Juqi would lose money, and which time they didn't make a lot of money.
Besides, this time in the name of cracking down on the industrial faction, he resold all the grain in the granaries of Shuntianfu from the hands of the Donglin Party.
With the hostility of the Donglin Party to the industrial faction, even if it is given away for free, it will not hesitate to give it to the Wang family of the five major Jin merchants.
Although the greed of the Donglin Party to squeeze out two taels of oil even if it is a stone, it will not give it to the Wang family for no reason, but it can also buy all the grain in the granary at an unprecedented low price.
The chief housekeeper of the Wang family said unashamedly that he wanted to eat all the grain in the granaries of Shuntian Mansion, this is Shuntian Mansion, and the stored grain is enough to be comparable to Shanxi.
