"I said that scholar, you are too unreasonable, right? We are all businessmen, no matter what we do, we all talk about money, we have the money to rent your docks and warehouses, you have to rent to us, could it be that you have money and still don't make money? What is the right of first use, it is completely uncompliant. As soon as Gu Feng's words fell, a young merchant stood up and said dissatisfiedly.

His words aroused the general approval of all the businessmen, and what he said also made some sense, and the emphasis on business is the one who has the highest price, and such a forcible division of priority rights is indeed inconsistent with the rules, which involves the problem of planning and freedom in business.

Gu Feng smiled slightly, and he was not angry at the businessman's rude attitude, "This big brother has a point. But pay attention, the dock and warehouse are not things you want to buy a good seat when you watch the play, the price is high, and the things involved are more than I understand. I Dayan worked hard to open this tea and horse market, and I Chicheng worked hard to build these wharves and warehouses, and I can't occupy the maximum benefits, can you talk about the past? The one with the highest price wins? It should also be clear to everyone that the separation of these priorities is also a last resort. If this decision is not made, I am afraid that some people will not agree. Besides, if the country of Chu is rich today, then isn't my Dayan's tea and horse market open for the state of Chu? ”

The merchant who asked a few rhetorical questions from Gu Feng was speechless, and the others stopped shouting, but instead looked at Jin Li and the other five people with unkind eyes.

These merchants are not stupid, they know very well that if Akagi can't come up with an effective and reasonable method, the virtue of the five great families will definitely firmly dominate the tea and horse market. Thinking of this, those ordinary businessmen were on Akagi's side, and they were not so reluctant to divide a few priorities this time.

Jin Li, Jia Xianqiu and the others exchanged a few glances, and they all knew that this was Gu Feng provoking the relationship between the five of them and ordinary businessmen. But they don't care, they never take those small and medium-sized businessmen seriously. At the same time, several people understood in their hearts that this was a concession from Qin Wang. According to Gu Feng's words, there are indeed not so many facilities in Chicheng alone, and there is not much difference between the first and the second. You don't have to take such a big risk to get there.

The biggest question now is how far Akagi's business will develop, Jin Li silently calculated in his heart. Speaking of which, the businessmen who are now in Akagi are just Chen Wan'er and Jincheng, and the wealth of the two is scattered, and they can't afford to turn over the storm. Even if Akagi has just recently obtained materials worth tens of millions of taels of silver from the Golden Mountain, but even so, Akagi's competitiveness is still not great, this world is not rich to do business, but also needs relationships, reputation, channels, and so on. Then Qin forgot to keep the first priority to himself, just to make a small profit, or did he have other ideas?

"This gentleman, I don't know what your position is in Akagi?" Jin Li couldn't figure it out, so he simply asked Gu Feng.

"There is no product and no position, but what I said today can completely represent General Qin." Seeing that Jin Li, the head of the merchants, suddenly spoke, Gu Feng's spirit perked up, and he secretly said, here.

Jin Li nodded, indicating that he understood, thinking that this person was Qin Wang's confidant, "Then dare to ask Mr., how is the business in Akagi?" If Akagi's business is unusually prosperous, won't I have to wait for a long time? Besides, even if you don't have the goods to sell, but you insist that they do, won't we be wasting a lot of time in vain? ”

Worthy of being a business leader, Jin Li's question hit the nail on the head, and as soon as he finished speaking, he immediately aroused a voice of approval.

Gu Feng was not in a hurry, raised his hand and suppressed the voices of these people, "How is the business of my Chicheng, everyone should know that the tea and horse market is such a grand event, and my Chicheng is naturally unwilling to stand by and watch the excitement." Leaving the first priority is just a matter of preparedness. Besides, the Chicheng Wharf has been under construction, and it will get bigger and bigger in the future, and there are four or five other inlets in the Chaobai River that are suitable for building a wharf, are you worried that you will not be able to use it in the future? ”

Gu Feng's words are reasonable, it seems that Akagi has indeed made no achievements in business, and Jin Li and those businessmen have made up their minds.

Gu Feng paused for a moment, giving these people enough time to think about it, "For the second question, that's also simple. As soon as the tea horse market opens, my Dayan will naturally not let it develop, and when the time comes, the imperial court will definitely send officials to supervise the tea and horse market. And I can tell you right now that the so-called first and second usufruct are only a few days apart, for example, how many days after the first usufruct starts trading, the second usufruct can be listed for trading, and so on. As for how many days this is, it needs further consideration. ”

"What about the warehouse? If the people in front rented all the warehouses and rented them to the people behind at a high price, wouldn't that make others lose money? Jia Xianqiu said.

"Boss Jia, rest assured, what I Chicheng represents is always the interests of Dayan, and Dayan's biggest interest in Tea Horse City is taxes, like this kind of thing that affects the order of transactions, I Chicheng will definitely not let it develop. is still the same sentence, when the time comes, there will naturally be people from my Dayan Imperial Court who will manage it, and everyone will find them. Gu Feng explained.

"Then I don't know how much the docks and warehouses charge?" Shi Chuan asked.

"According to the value of the goods you are transporting, the tax of 100 miles is one. That is to say, if you bring goods worth a hundred taels, then if you use the docks and warehouses, you will have to pay one tael of silver. Of course, if you don't use the warehouse or dock, you will naturally lose that part of the expenses. Warehouses and wharves account for half each, and other restaurants and inns have different charging standards. Gu Feng smiled, but said a price that no one could accept.

These businessmen clamored again, scolding Chicheng for being black-hearted, and Dayan for being taxed

It's just sixty taxes and one dollar, and it's really too black to use the wharf and warehouse to pay one hundred miles of tax.

Gu Feng was still smiling, and when these people finished scolding and said that they were tired, they spoke again, "Sixty taxes one? I'm afraid you're overthinking. That's just a discount for my Dayan merchants, people from other countries, I can guarantee that it will be much higher. If someone thinks that our charges are too high, they can come to Akagi without shipping. ”

Gu Feng's fluttering words made everyone shut up, don't come to Akagi? That's a fool, the situation is stronger than people, and the 100-mile tax is indeed a little higher, but everyone still pinched their noses and admitted it.

"I don't know how to get this second priority." Jin Li's words are equivalent to admitting Gu Feng's words in disguise.

"It's simple, the one with the highest price wins." Gu Feng smiled slightly, "The second priority starts with two million taels of silver, the third priority is one million taels, and the fourth priority is five hundred thousand taels." ”

After Gu Feng's words, the hall exploded again, and all the merchants did not expect that Akagi would blatantly sell the rights in this way. Jin Li was even more surprised, and he had to admire the subtlety of Qin Forget's move, and clearly marked the price of everything in front of so many people, and the calculations of the previous few people were completely in vain. Originally, they planned to divide the priority of the transaction between the five companies, but now it seems that it has to be in vain, and the best result is only to get a second priority. These are really 108,000 miles away from the profits of completely controlling the tea and horse market.

But if the five of them insist on going their own way, they will only offend all the merchants in the world. Although the five families are not afraid of the consequences, the loss is not something they can easily bear. What's more, the plan in their hearts is unlikely to be supported by merchants all over the world, they are willing to hoard goods and not come to Akagi to trade, naturally some people are happy to come, and they are happy that the five families will not get involved in the tea and horse market.

Jia Xianqiu naturally thought of this, and couldn't hold back the anger in his heart, "Hmph, you Chicheng are very calculating, is it possible that so many of us will be led by your nose?" Jia Xianqiu was young and vigorous, and sneered coldly.

"The Jia family is rich and rich, so naturally they won't take our district Chicheng in their eyes. If the Jia family is willing, everyone will show their powers. Gu Feng was still smiling, but his smile was cold.

Taking advantage of the gap between the two of them, Jin Li kept weighing the gains and losses, "Okay, just two million taels, four, how about I come up with this silver together?" Jin Li finally made up his mind, and after speaking, he looked at Jia Xianqiu with deep meaning.

Jia Xianqiu opened his mouth, and was about to say something, Shi Chuan happened to cough a few times, he seemed to suddenly understand something, quickly closed his mouth, and didn't say a word.

Gu Feng kept staring at Jia Xianqiu, and he was very nervous, just waiting for Jia Xianqiu to open his mouth to raise the price. Seeing the scene in front of him, he secretly cursed in his heart, extremely disappointed, and he felt that the five families were likely to form an alliance now.
