Chapter 208: Brewing a Storm

Just when many scholars in the south of the Yangtze River welcomed the most depressing New Year festival in history, Jinling Art Garden, Meng Feng, who had not been seen for a long time, finally came back from Gusu!

Looking at Meng Feng, Dong Ce was very emotional, Meng Feng used to be white and tender, but now, although he is still white, he is sick and white, and the whole person has lost a circle or two, and he is very haggard.

"Alas!" After taking a sip of tea, Meng Feng sighed: "I'm used to drinking the tea made by Brother Dong, other teas are like bran, it's hard to swallow!" ”

Dong Ce immediately poured Meng Feng a full cup and said with a smile: "How is the situation in the branch garden?" ”

"It's okay, although after the goods of our Jinling partners were transported to Gusu, there were conflicts with local traders, but fortunately, there was the mediation of King Xian, and there was no storm." Saying that, Meng Feng lowered his stomach with another cup of tea, looked at Dong Ce and said, "However, King Xian is very dissatisfied with Brother Dong, saying that you actually opened the branch garden to Gusu, why should you show up!" ”

King Xian likes to go to the Gusu branch to watch a play recently, Dong Ce also received the news early, and thanks to him, otherwise the branch garden would not have been so smooth, but Dong Ce didn't even go to the door to thank him once, this shelf is inevitably too big!

"I'll be there next year to say thank you." Dong Ce was very important in the tea garden in Dongting Mountain, so he naturally had to go there in person, and for this matter, he had already selected some skillful, thick-skinned, loyal and honest people from the victims he had taken in before, and let them fry sand or leaves every day to practice their hands.

The iron palm has not been completed, do you dare to finish? Thinking back to his last life, even if Dong Ce was wearing gloves, the result was all bubbles, and if he didn't train a roasted tea master as soon as possible, he would only be able to stare at a bunch of young leaves at that time!

"I heard that the shop next door was taken first!" After Meng Feng finished speaking, he saw Dong Ce nodding, and he immediately said, "Then what are you going to do?" ”

"Ignore it for now." Dong Ce shook his head and said, "I'm going to invest this money elsewhere." ”

"Oh! I don't know what you're going to do with it? Meng Feng said curiously.

Dong Ce said without concealment: "Wood and stone! ”

Meng Feng was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly smiled bitterly. Pointing at Dong Ce and shaking his head, he said, "You, you, you are really a goose plucking!" ”

Wood and stone are the main materials of the house, in fact, Dong Ce has been doing it, which is also the reason why the silver collection of Shanhe Society disappeared instantly, and now half of the materials for Taiping Dao to build a temple in Jinling have passed through Dong Ce's hands. Originally, he stopped and freed up the money to expand the art garden, but after Gong Qingjie took the lead, he could only continue to make a little difference.

When Dong Ce talked to Meng Feng about the details, Zhu Dashan suddenly walked in and said respectfully: "Sect Master, Master Meng, Yan Chong and Gao Tong have come out. ”

"Oh, say Cao Cao. Cao Cao is here! Dong Ce smiled, then asked Zhu Dashan to retreat, and then said to Meng Feng: "Let's go, you will inevitably deal with them in the future!" ”

Meng Feng smiled and nodded, and then left the attic with Dong Ce and went to the tea hall.

When the two came to the teahouse, they saw that two noble people, one fat and one thin, were chatting, and after seeing Dong Ce and the two. The two hurriedly got up, and Dong Ce introduced Meng Feng to the two of them. The four of them exchanged pleasantries again, and then took their seats.

"Dong Yilang made a lot of money some time ago, and now he is looking for the two of me again, could it be that the business is going to be on the door again?" Yan Chong said curiously.

Yan Chong is a merchant who sells timber, and there is a small scholar clan behind him, and his elder brother is also a county magistrate. As for the fat man Gao Tong beside him, although he is not a scholar, he is a shopkeeper hired by a scholar clan, and the stones sold by him are rumored to be as many as a mountain! Therefore, this person gave a nickname. Move the mountain!

Neither of them was a Jinling businessman, but Dong Ce sent someone to Liyang County to contact them.

Dong Ce bought a large number of stones and trees from the two of them with 10,000 taels of silver, at first the two knew that they didn't know what Dong Ce was used for, and after Taiping Dao began to build temples on a large scale, they understood, but they didn't lose either, after all, if they transported the stones and trees to Jinling by themselves, they would definitely be suppressed by the local area, and with Dong Ce as the middleman, everything was much simpler!

"This time, I am looking for two of you, and it is still a matter of stone and wood materials." Dong Ce said.

Yan Gao and the two glanced at each other, and couldn't help but feel very puzzled, they had already received the news, because Taiping Dao had limited financial resources, and they had to support a large number of disaster victims, so they could only build temples in a few famous mountains and several major cities, and now the materials have basically been implemented, and there is no need to add them, so why did Dong Ce buy materials again?

Because of the last time, these two people have paid attention, as businessmen, they naturally want to make more money, and they are not separated by tens of millions of miles, as long as they find a buyer, they can also ship it over, why bother to collect a sum of money for Dong Ce!

Of course, they knew that he would definitely not say it if they asked Dong Ce, and now they had to suppress this matter for the time being, and when they went back, they would investigate it clearly and see if they could talk about it again!

Thinking of this, Yan Chong raised his eyebrows at Gao Tong, the fat man immediately understood, smiled honestly, and was about to play Tai Chi with Dong Ce, but was interrupted by Dong Ce, who calculated what they were thinking: "Don't think too much about the two, it's the king to make money together, I won't hide it from the two, we still have to sell the materials to Taiping Dao, but in terms of price, it can't be the original price!" ”

"What?" Both of them were shocked, and Yan Chongsuan said first: "Dong Yilang, if you have more demand, this price is naturally easy to discuss, but if the demand is less, and you still want to ask for a price reduction, do you look down on us?" ”

"Definitely!" Dong Ce waved his hand and said, "It's not going down, it's going up!" ”

"Up!" Both were surprised! Gao Tong hurriedly said: "Can Dong Yilang explain?" Don't worry, as you said, everyone earns money together! ”

Dong Ce glanced at Meng Feng, and Meng Feng understood that it was time for him to come forward.

"The situation is like this, we have learned the news, we Jiangnan many scholars are ready to help the state religion to build temples in Jiangnan, this time is different from before, I am afraid that it will spread throughout the entire Jiangnan, the state capital, counties and towns, famous mountains and countryside, will usher in a temple building trend, to be honest, we don't need to explain how big this deal is, and the two of you will definitely not be able to eat, but, with the connections of the two of you, coupled with our ability, unite the major business materials of the scholar shopkeeper, and raise the price at the same time, I think, just a little oil and water flow out, It's crazy enough, isn't it? ”

Yan Chong and Gao Tong were stunned, they couldn't even think about how big this deal was, and it was already related to the state religion and the scholars, although they were also considered to be the merchants of the scholars and the scholars who helped the scholars, but after hearing it, they would inevitably retreat!

However, how can the merchant let the white silver slip away from his eyes?

"I'm afraid of this...... How about talking about it in a year's time? Yan Chong's tone was very unsteady, because he was struggling in his heart now!

Meng Feng shook his head and said: "Time is pressing, I really can't delay, if the two don't want to join forces, it doesn't matter, anyway, we have united many material merchants, when the time comes, after they raise the price, how can the material prices of the two lag behind!" ”

There is no way back, this is absolutely no way back!

Although you can make a lot of money with this storm or not, but after you agree, you will definitely have money to earn together, if you don't agree, after this storm, can you please well? (To be continued.) )
