Huizhou merchants originated in Huizhou, and Huizhou people began to do business in the Song Dynasty. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoAfter the Yuan and Ming dynasties, it is still a wealthy world. Hui merchants have been doing business for hundreds of years and have a decisive influence in the Ming business community. Compared with the Huizhou businessmen, those Zhejiang bigwigs are just a group of nouveau riche.

Hui merchants are good at business and are even better at handling the relationship with the government. In today's imperial court, I don't know how many high-ranking officials are the umbrella of Hui merchants.

In the city of Hangzhou, Huizhou Hall.

More than a dozen Hui merchants were feasting. Seven or eight young women danced to cheer up, and the sheng ensemble played a pleasant music.

An old man with a gray beard was sitting at the head of the banquet. He is the leader of the Hui businessmen - Su Bingyan!

Su Bingyan clapped his hands, and the dancers and the sheng music team retreated.

Su Bingyan said with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, the imperial court implemented the national policy of changing rice to mulberry, which was suggested by Chen Di to the imperial court after the businessmen of Jiangsu and Zhejiang bribed Chen Di. But well, the praying mantis catches the cicada, and the sparrow is behind! ”

Liu Yuxi, the general counter of Chase Bank, who was sitting at the bottom, said: "That's that!" Boss Su is really smart! The imperial court changed rice to mulberry, and it seemed that the merchants of Jiangsu and Zhejiang could produce more silk and sell it to the Persians to earn more silver. But in the end, in the end, the biggest profit is still our Hui businessmen! ”

Su Bingyan said: "After changing rice to mulberry, the fields in Jiangsu and Zhejiang can earn an extra fifty percent of the profits, so much profit to those croppers is not a tyrannical thing?" We Hui merchants have the strength to annex most of these fields to our own names! ”

Zhang Zhenji, the shopkeeper of Ruixiang Yaxing, said worriedly: "But that Zhenhai Bo Chen Di sent more than a dozen counselors from the political envoy Yamen to the following prefectures, prefectures, and counties, saying that they would supervise the implementation of changing rice to mulberry and strictly investigate the annexation of the people's land!" ”

Su Bingyan laughed: "Although Chen Di has been hot in Jiangnan officialdom recently, he is still a fourteen-year-old doll!" How can he beat our Huizhou merchants? I have used a clever plan, so Chen Di will definitely not prevent us from acquiring a large amount of land in Zhejiang! ”

Zhang Zhenji asked Su Bingyan: "Boss Su, this Chen Di recently got the nickname of 'Chen Kuotou', and his methods are vicious, we can't take it lightly!" ”

Su Bingyan shook his head: "A fledgling is always a fledgling, and it can't fly to the sky!" Do you know that there is a Fuxing firm in Hangzhou recently? The shopkeeper of the firm is Ma Ruyun, a tea merchant in Hangzhou? ”

Zhang Zhenji said: "I know, I know." The opening of the Fuxing Commercial Bank, it seems that the local businessmen of the whole Zhejiang have come to congratulate them, and the momentum is very large. ”

Su Bingyan stopped talking. Liu Yuxi, the general manager of Chase Bank, is Su Bingyan's right-hand man, and he explained to the merchants: "The behind-the-scenes boss of Fuxing Commercial Bank is Zhenhai Bo Chen Di!" ”

Huizhou businessmen are rich and wealthy, and naturally have a huge intelligence network in the officialdom and the people. Chen Di's investment in the establishment of Fuxing Commercial Bank was known to Su Bingyan and Liu Yuxi for a long time.

Liu Yuxi said: "Do you know about the recent flooding in Xin'an River? Fields on both sides of the river were flooded. I don't know what's going on here! ”

The dozen or so people who sat down were all elites among Huizhou businessmen, all of them were extremely smart figures, Liu Yuxi said this, and everyone immediately understood in their hearts that the Xin'anjiang broke in early winter was done by Su Bingyan and Liu Yuxi.

Liu Yuxi also said: "Before the flood, the fields along the Xin'an River were six taels of silver per acre. Now that the disaster is bad, twenty liters of millet can be exchanged for one acre, and less than one or two pieces of silver! That's the difference of five taels! Boss Su has already made Ma Ruyun, the treasurer of the Fuxing Commercial Bank of the ward, and asked Ma Ruyun to buy it for one tael of silver, and then sell it to Boss Su for four taels. When the flood waters recedes, the value of these fields can increase by 50%! Inside and out, you can earn more than double! ”

Zhang Zhenji asked: "Since the disaster field in Xin'anjiang is so cheap, why doesn't Boss Su buy it himself?" But you want the revival firm to intervene? ”

Liu Yuxi said with a smile: "Boss Zhang asked well! May I ask you, is the acquisition of the disaster fields in Xin'anjiang considered a annexation of the people's land? If it counts, then the revival of the trading house is annexing the people's land! Chen Di is the proprietor of the Fuxing Commercial Bank, and his Zhenhaibo is taking the lead in annexing the people's land! The bottom of his butt is not clean, why should he care about our Hui businessmen to buy the land in Zhejiang? ”

Su Bingyan finally spoke: "Everyone! The land on both sides of the Xin'an River is just a drop in the bucket compared to the land in Zhejiang Province! The goal of our Hui businessmen should not be limited to the disaster fields on both sides of the Xin'an River, we should look further! Since changing rice to mulberry has made the acquisition of land a profitable business, I plan that our Huizhou businessmen will do everything possible to buy all the land that has been changed from rice to mulberry in Zhejiang at full value! ”

Listening to Su Bingyan's bold words, a group of Hui merchants seemed to see countless land deeds with their own names written on them, as if they saw that they could make a mountain of silver from these fields that had been converted from rice to mulberry.

The reason why Su Bingyan demolished the Xin'an River embankment was to let Chen Di bear the notoriety of annexing the people's land! He will use this matter to blackmail Chen Di, so that Chen Di will no longer care about the annexation of the people's land by Hui merchants!

Su Bingyan's wishful thinking was very loud.

The subordinates of the Huizhou Guild Hall passed on: "Zhejiang political envoy Chen Di Chen asks to see!" ”

A group of Huizhou businessmen were shocked. Liu Yuxi was still talking about calculating Chen Di just now, why did Chen Di come to Huizhou Hall immediately?

Su Bingyan was not afraid at all: "Hurry up, please!" Ladies and gentlemen, you go home first, and then I will meet this Zhenhaibo alone! I'd like to see if this fourteen-year-old boy has three heads and six arms! ”

Chen Di came to Su Bingyan and arched his hand: "Boss Su, I have admired my name for a long time." ”

Su Bingyan knelt down and saluted Chen Di: "Grass people Su Bingyan, meet Zhenhaibo!" ”

Chen Di hurriedly picked up Su Bingyan: "Boss Su, please get up quickly!" ”

Su Bingyan asked Chen Di: "Zhenhaibo visited late at night, I don't know what happened?" ”

Chen Di said with a smile: "The Zhejiang business community is divided into two factions. One faction is the indigenous merchants of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and the other faction is your Hui merchants. Hui merchants have been famous all over the world for hundreds of years, and their strength is above that of Zhejiang businessmen! I went to Zhejiang to be an official, but I never had time to meet you, the leader of Huizhou businessmen, which is really a pity. If I have nothing to do tonight, I will come to see you. ”

Su Bingyan is an old fox-like figure. At the beginning, Zhejiang businessmen were profitable, so they went to do business with the Japanese Kou like a swarm, but Su Bingyan was unmoved. He knew how risky it was to do business with the Wakos. Chen Di now got the handle of the Zhejiang businessmen, and played the Zhejiang businessmen in applause, but he couldn't control the Hui businessmen!

Su Bingyan said with a smile: "Actually, the grass people have been in the town of Haibo for a long time!" Zhenhaibo arrived in Zhejiang, formed a new army, repeatedly defeated the Japanese invaders, and protected the territory and the people. ”

Chen Di said: "Boss Su praised it falsely! ”

Su Bingyan said again: "Actually, Zhenhaibo and the grass people are not without intersections!" The owner of Fuxing Commercial Bank should be Zhenhaibo, right? Fuxing Commercial Bank has purchased a large number of disaster-stricken fields on both sides of the Xin'an River, and these disaster-stricken fields have been resold to grass farmers. Caomin and Zhenhaibo are already business partners! ”
