Chapter 204: Trading Plan
On the banquet, in addition to the shopkeepers of the shops under the name of Qiancai, there were many unfamiliar faces, these people were not the guys of the business, nor were they the subordinates of the popular courtyards, and they seemed to be just ordinary people in Suzhou Mansion who looked like they were dressed.
Halfway through the banquet, I saw the three of them holding their wine glasses towards the upper seat.
Zhu Youzhen looked at the comer, picked up the wine glass and smiled at the three of them: "It's really eye-opening for me to see the acting skills of the three today." ”
The three of them were already a little red at this time, and when they heard Zhu Youzhen's praise, they were even more proud, but they also knew what kind of place this was, and they didn't dare to be too arrogant, and the three of them said in unison: "Thank you for your support." ”
"Keep up the good work tomorrow."
When the three of them heard this, they said excitedly: "I will live up to the trust of the son, and we will smash where the son points tomorrow." Others gave money to smash the store, and it was the first time these three people had encountered such a good thing.
Qian Cai raised a glass and made peace with everyone at the banquet, and after the banquet was halfway through, he and Zhu Youzhen quietly left the table, and several shopkeepers at other tables saw Qian Cai leave, and then found a reason to walk away.
In the study of the popular courtyard, Qian Cai stood in the room, with more than a dozen locked large boxes in front of him, he stretched out his fat hand and stroked them one by one, and the dozen boxes were spotless.
The door of the study was pushed open from the outside, and the money was still unaware, still looking at the big solid wood boxes like a child.
Zhu Youjian reminded loudly: "Okay, old money, everyone is here, don't be nostalgic." ”
The people outside the door came in one by one, and Qian Cai returned to the main seat and sat down, until no one came in outside the door, and Gao Han and Hu Bao outside the door reached out and closed the door of the study.
Qian Cai stared quietly at the more than ten boxes, and for a while no one in the room spoke, and the silent needle drop could be heard.
Zhu Youzhen coughed lightly and said, "Everyone must know about today's Wanyutai Tea House. ”
When everyone heard Zhu Youzhen speak, they just nodded in agreement, and did not make a sound.
Zhu Youzhen continued: "Wanyutai Tea House is just a lead, presumably after today's day, coupled with the intention of our people to publicize, the people of Suzhou Mansion almost know about it in their hearts." Although this fire has not yet burned on the heads of the eight major joint firms, and I think they will still be complacent about how well they have handled it, but once the seeds of panic are planted, they will soon sprout and take root, and as for when they will germinate, it depends on when we will water them. ”
The shopkeeper Chen of Runheng said: "I don't know what we should do next?" All the tickets borrowed in the past few days have been cleared today. ”
The money finally took his eyes back from the box, and he said to the people in the room: "The back and forth of the past few days is just to consume the silver deposit of the eight major joint firms, and the silver taels we have obtained from selling tickets in the past few days are just to help the eight major joint firms to deposit, if the price of the coupons cannot be suppressed, these silver will not only have to be returned in full, but also all the belongings will be lost, everything depends on tomorrow, and all our means will be in these dozen boxes." ”
After speaking, Qian Cai stood up and walked to more than a dozen large boxes, and then looked back at everyone: "After today, everyone must have known the strength of the eight major joint firms, we have sold a total of 13 million taels of tickets, all of which were borrowed from the eight firms, and still failed to break their bones.
And here, there are a total of fifteen boxes of various tickets, which are only 10 million taels at market price, and it is impossible for us to defeat the eight United Firms with our own strength, so we have to use external forces to defeat them in one fell swoop. ”
Shopkeeper Chen asked, "What does the proprietor mean?" ”
"A few days ago, we borrowed the power of eight firms, they are bold and have a big appetite, because they never thought about the possibility of reducing the price of tickets, and tomorrow we will borrow the power of the whole of Suzhou, so that those tickets become waste paper."
The shopkeeper Wen, who was frequently slapped in the face, said: "The proprietor, if you want to keep the price of the coupon down, it is possible, but you want to make the ticket a waste paper, with the financial resources of the eight joint firms, you can't do it anyway, right?" ”
When Qian Cai heard this, he glanced at Zhu Youzhen, and his face was full of smiles.
Zhu Youjian said: "If it is only through the means of price reduction, it will naturally not be possible, but the tickets are not only used for circulation, the main role is to exchange, if the exchanged goods are gone, or even the business that issued the tickets is closed, even if these eight joint firms have more money in their hands, how can they afford the price of the tickets?" What's more, the silver in the hands of these eight firms is not enough to take over the tickets of the whole Suzhou Mansion, if they can gather all the silver of the general number and semicolon to Suzhou Mansion, maybe it is still possible, but time does not allow, wait for them to raise the silver
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
At that time, I don't think anyone would want to spend a lot of money to pull the price of a pile of waste paper. ”
The dozen or so shopkeepers in the room couldn't help whispering, but the shopkeeper Chen spoke: "Childe, this ...... Is it possible? ”
Zhu Youzhen said: "If it is a normal exchange, it is naturally impossible, every business has the ability to delay, but with today's Wan Yutai example, the people of Suzhou Mansion have panicked in their hearts, plus the guidance of those people in the yard now, the people of Suzhou know how to do it, and what you have to do is when to water and how to water." ”
The shopkeepers in the room are all long-standing shopping malls, but this operation is the first time, one by one to listen to the spirits, eager to try, the shopkeeper Wen is quite excited to say: "The proprietor, the son, how to do it and ask for instructions, we will not disgrace the mission." ”
Zhu Youzhen looked at Wen Sidao's red face, and didn't feel a little funny, this old man was still so excited when he was old.
Qian Cai arranged: "Our operation is only one day tomorrow, and it has nothing to do with us later, these fifteen boxes of tickets will be led by Shopkeeper Wen to eight boxes, Shopkeeper Chen will receive four boxes, and I have other arrangements for the remaining three boxes." All the operations of tomorrow are divided into two groups, led by the shopkeeper of Gao, the shopkeeper of Qin, and the shopkeeper of Li...... As a group of eight people, they took these eight boxes of tickets to the major money banks, pawnshops, and printing bureaus of the eight joint firms to sell, except for the Siming firms, and the detailed operation strategy was arranged by Zhu Gongzi.
Shopkeeper Chen led Shopkeeper Wu, Shopkeeper Wang, and Shopkeeper Yu...... A group of seven people is responsible for suppressing the price of private tickets, and I will tell you the specific operation.
The number of tickets borrowed by the shopkeepers from each business must be recorded, and after completing tomorrow's tasks, you only need to wait for the tickets to fall to the price of scrap paper, and return them when they expire. ”
After the money was arranged, Zhu Youzhen got up, "Treasurer Wen, a group of eight shopkeepers, please come with me." ”
After speaking, Zhu Youzhen walked towards the outside of the study.
Gao Han and Hu Bao saw Zhu Youzhen leading the eight shopkeepers out, and after the last shopkeeper closed the door, the two followed a group of people and walked out.
At this time, the sound of harmony between the banquets in the courtyard could still be heard, and Zhu Youzhen led a group of people towards another brightly lit courtyard.
Entering the courtyard, the eight shopkeepers led by Wen Sidao saw ten people standing in the courtyard at this time, each holding a torch in his hand and standing next to a horse, and Gao Han and Hu Bao, who were originally following at the end, also walked and stood among the ten people.
The eight shopkeepers didn't understand what Zhu Youjian meant for a while.
Just when the shopkeepers were puzzled, Zhu Youzhen said: "These twelve people are tomorrow's messengers, you shopkeepers read carefully, and don't recognize the wrong person, tomorrow if any store is run out of business, these twelve people will quickly send the news, and the shopkeepers will sell the tickets of the store in their hands regardless of everything when they receive the news." ”
After listening to Zhu Youzhen's words, the eight shopkeepers understood, and immediately stepped forward to look at the twelve people carefully, trying to record the appearance of these people, for fear of missing something.
It wasn't until the twelve people were a little uncomfortable that the shopkeepers turned around and signaled that they had remembered.
Seeing this, Zhu Youzhen nodded to the twelve, and those with torches led the horses away.
After there were only eight shopkeepers left in the courtyard, Zhu Youzhen continued: "All the shopkeepers go to their respective businesses to choose a few clever guys, the more the better, in addition to you selling the eight boxes of tickets yourself, distribute some with those guys, let them mix in the crowd to sell, each time you can sell dozens of taels of silver tickets, you can also sell thousands of taels of silver tickets, the specific amount you can grasp yourself, but there is one point, you must do enough tricks, even if it is a few taels of silver, you have to sell me tens of thousands of taels of momentum, Let those people think that this person has sold out the tickets and there is not much silver in the bank, do you understand? ”
The eight shopkeepers echoed one after another: "Son, don't worry, there is no shortage of this kind of guy in every business name, except for the guy in charge of the warehouse, the guy on the counter is very lively." ”
Zhu Youzhen nodded and said: "That's good, the main purpose of you tomorrow is to consume as much money as possible from a few banks, pawnshops, and printing bureaus, that is, to sell the tickets in your hands at a high price as much as possible, which must be what the shopkeeper is best at." ”
Wen Sidao said with a smile: "Gongzi is wise, this is what you will do in the next life." ”
"So I can rest assured, you shopkeepers have worked hard these days, go back early today to rest, tomorrow morning arrange for someone to come and get eight boxes of tickets and then go to the outside of the shops to line up, be sure to line up the queue, the longer the more it can cause the curiosity and panic of the people, success or failure is tomorrow, if you succeed in defeating the eight joint firms, you can't say those firms
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
The big shopkeeper is going to change you to do it. ”
Several people laughed when they heard this, the bigger the business in charge, the more dividends these shopkeepers will have, and nothing is as real as the benefits of real money.
After the eight people left, Zhu Youzhen turned around and went back to the banquet in the other courtyard.
At this time, in the study, Qian Cai is also arranging tomorrow's operation.
I only heard Chen's shopkeeper say: "There are at least hundreds of individuals who collect coupons from the people, these are some petty fights, and there is not much cash in their hands, they are all collected by walking through the streets and alleys, and each person is only a few hundred taels of silver in his hand." In addition to these individuals are some organized coupon collection teams, these people have a clear division of labor, some go door to door to collect, some go outside the pawn shops to collect, and some are blocked at the door of a money bank, as long as the price card changes outside the money bank, they will immediately go to spread the news, there are forty or fifty such teams, and each of them has at least ten thousand taels of silver in their hands. ”
Qian Cai said: "Shopkeeper Chen, let's talk about your thoughts first." ”
"The proprietor, I think if we just blindly suppress the price of the coupon will be much higher, if we also arrange people to mix in to collect coupons, and at the same time we will cooperate with the adjustment of the coupon price, I think those coupon collection teams can not keep up with us even if someone passes the quotation card, so that the coupon price will be high and low, and the people who sell the coupon will be uneasy, and the coupon collector will not dare to set the price higher, so that the number of people who go to the money bank to sell the coupon will increase, and the pressure on the money bank can be increased, and the price of the private coupon can also be reduced."
Qian Cai nodded with a smile and said: "That's exactly what I mean, this private coupon collection team will be organized by the shopkeeper Chen, and it doesn't need more, two is enough, and then arrange more people to go to the streets and alleys to collect coupons, the price must be lower than others, and the purpose is not to collect coupons, the purpose is to reduce the price." ”
After speaking, Qian Cai looked at the other people: "The rest of you will cooperate with the shopkeeper Chen, and at the same time create pressure on those private coupon collection teams, I think it should not be difficult to test the financial strength of these bond collection teams with the ability of your shopkeepers, our strategy is to sell in small quantities, suppress the market, and reduce the volume of large amounts at low prices, so that they can see the market price low, but they can't afford to collect this batch of coupons, and then reduce the coupon price step by step." ”
After everyone understood, Qian Cai said: "The shopkeeper of these four boxes of tickets will bring someone to pick them up early tomorrow morning, so go back early today." ”
After a few shopkeepers left, Qian Cai walked out of the study and beckoned to the outside not far away, and then a few guards walked out of the darkness, entered the study and left with three suitcases and Qian Cai.
On the banquet, it was almost the end at this time, Zhu Youzhen looked at Qian Cai not far away and led a few people carrying boxes to this side, so he stood up and held the wine glass, and said loudly to the people in the courtyard who were pushing the glasses and changing the glasses: "Everyone, ......"
As soon as everyone at the banquet saw Zhu Youzhen talking, they immediately stopped making noise and all looked at him.
"Today's matter, hard work, everyone, although you have gained something, but in my opinion it is insignificant, everyone look behind you."
Everyone followed Zhu Youzhen's words and looked back, and saw Qian Cai standing there with three boxes beside him.
Zhu Youzhen motioned to several guards to open the box, and then continued: "These three boxes are filled with all kinds of tickets, worth two million taels of silver, all of them will be handed over to you today, and tomorrow you will take these tickets and go to exchange for goods according to the method of today's Wanyutai Tea House, and all the proceeds from the exchange will belong to you, and at the same time, if any business is exchanged for bankruptcy like Wanyutai Tea House, the remaining tickets will belong to you, and you can buy and sell them at will, and the proceeds will also belong to you." ”
Most of the people left in the courtyard are ordinary people in Suzhou Mansion, only a few are Wan Yutai's guys, as soon as they heard Zhu Youzhen's words, this group of people exploded with a "boom", two million taels, and there were only more than 100 people in the courtyard, so no one could almost get tens of thousands of taels of silver, these people had never seen so much silver in their lives, and those who were a little drunk suddenly sobered up.
Just when these people were carried away by the benefits, they only heard a "bang", a blue and white porcelain plate fell to the ground and fell apart, and the courtyard was quiet again.
"However, if someone dares to fill his pocket when exchanging, not only will he not get any of these benefits, but I will also send him to see an official, and if the store to which these three boxes of tickets belong is not run out of business, not only will we have to recover the exchange proceeds, but we will also recover the remaining tickets, whether we can get these depends on your performance tomorrow."
After speaking, Zhu Youzhen asked someone to remove the table of wine in front of him, called three account rooms to set up pen and ink, and then shouted to the people in the courtyard again: "If you are willing to exchange the coupon tomorrow, come over to register and receive the coupon, and if you don't want to, you can leave on your own." ”
