As soon as Lu Congliang left, before Shi Jian's ass sat firmly, someone came to report that Jiangyin businessmen asked to see him.

"Please!"

Shi Jian's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly ordered.

Those Jiangyin businessmen are the God of Wealth, they can get Western goods from Li Chuan's hands, and they can make a lot of money by changing hands casually, compared with those Jiangyin businessmen, the more than 10,000 acres of land under their names are really a bit shabby.

worked hard and carefully calculated, and made tens of thousands of taels when he died all year round.

If you can partner with those Jiangyin businessmen, then you can make less money?

Of course, Shi Jian is not stupid, knowing that these businessmen from Jiangyin are taking the lead for Li Chuan, and the reason why they are hanging themselves is just to bargain, so I don't know what kind of conditions Li Chuan will propose.

Now that those businessmen have come, most of them have come to negotiate with conditions.

Wan Youqing came alone, and the other six went to find Cui Long, Jiao Zhiming and others.

"Mr. Wan, please!"

Shi Jian personally greeted the door, and his attitude was called an intimacy.

"I've seen Lord Shi!"

Wan Youqing arched his hand and entered the main hall to serve tea accompanied by Shi Jian.

After sitting down and saying a few kind words, Wan Youqing glanced at the subordinates who were waiting beside him.

Shi Jian waved his hand, and several subordinates immediately bowed down and retreated.

Wan Youqing went straight to the point and said: "I have already discussed with several partners, it is not impossible for adults to want to join our firm, but we need to give up some things, as long as the adults nod, we will accept the adults to join us." ”

Shi Jian said quietly: "What do you need this official to give up?" ”

Although Wan Youqing didn't mention Li Chuan, he knew that it must be Li Chuan's condition.

Wan Youqing said: "Adults need to give up the fields and military households. ”

"Impossible!"

Shi Jian flatly refused: "Change to other conditions." ”

"Then it can't be helped."

Wan Youqing shook his head and said: "We only have this one condition, and Lord Shi should also know that those fields and military households belong to the imperial court after all, and if the wind direction changes one day, it will become a disaster." Presumably your lord should have heard about it, the commander is ordered by the emperor to rectify Jinshanwei this time, and the lord doesn't want to embarrass Lord Shi, so please don't let the commander embarrass the adult. ”

Shi Jian suddenly changed color and said, "Are you threatening this official? ”

Wan Youqing smiled and said, "Don't dare, I'm just stating the facts." To tell the truth, in fact, it is not difficult to make money, and how much income can more than 10,000 acres of land bring to adults, even if those military households are stripped of their money, it is only tens of thousands of taels a year, and they will not have a good reputation. I have already obtained the promise of the commander, and in the future, all the Western goods will be handed over to us for sale, and the profits must have been heard of by the adults, and the fraction is in ten taels of silver. As long as you have silver, you can't buy land? ”

"This ......"

Shi Jian was silent, this was the truth.

In these days, as long as you have money, it is not easy to buy land.

As long as you are willing to spend money, let alone 10,000 acres of land, even 100,000 acres is not a problem.

"Can I let this official think about it?"

Shi Jian hesitated, and it was difficult to make a decision for a while.

"Yes!"

Wan Youqing is not in a hurry, knowing that this kind of negotiation is not so easy.

After coming out of Shijian's mansion, he went to report to Li Chuan as soon as possible.

"Do you think Shi Jian will agree?"

Li Chuan asked, land and people are fundamental, and they must be recovered.

Wan Youqing said: "Shi Jian didn't directly refuse, there is hope for this matter, otherwise he wouldn't hesitate." ”

Li Chuan nodded and said, "You should follow this matter closely and negotiate it as soon as possible." ”

Wan Youqing responded, and couldn't help asking, "My lord, when will the next batch of goods arrive?" ”

Li Chuan glanced at him and said, "Don't worry, my words count, as long as you do this for me, when the next batch of goods arrives, I will give you half of it, and the next batch of goods is only a lot more than the previous batch." ”

Wan Youqing was immediately overjoyed, reassured, and finally put his heart back in his stomach.

The reason why the seven agents worked so hard to take the lead for Li Chuan was not for Western goods?

Half of the Westernization, as long as they can get the goods all the time, at most three or two years, they can become the few wealthy businessmen in the south of the Yangtze River, and the silver can be channeled, as long as there is enough silver, it is no longer a dream to call for wind and rain.

The opening of agents has come back one after another, all bringing the latest negotiation news.

Two acquaintances, five thousand households, only one thousand households with a little bit of courage was originally very excited, and after being threatened by Kou Mengjie with a few words, he happily agreed to Li Chuan's conditions, and converted the encroached fields into the molecules of the commercial bank established by Wan Youqing and seven people according to 30 taels of silver per mu, of course, there is still a lot of work to be done in the specific delivery.

In the evening, Li Chuan left seven agents to eat in the house.

Knowing that he had something to arrange, Wan Youqing and the seven of them happily agreed.

Li Chuan also called Lu Congliang, which made Lu Congliang excited for a while.

After dinner, Li Chuan took everyone to the study room.

Lu Congliang participated in Li Chuan's circle for the first time, and he just listened from beginning to end and didn't say a word.

"Hurry up and finalize the negotiations, I don't have much time."

Li Chuan said: "Today I will make one thing clear, I want to rectify Jinshanwei and let those military households who can only farm land take up arms again, so the land and people must be taken back no matter what, at all costs." ”

Lu Congliang was suddenly nervous for a while.

Suddenly hearing this extremely confidential thing, I don't know if it's good or bad.

Li Chuan ignored him and continued: "If you can solve it with interests, try to solve it with interests, but if there is really something that is not interesting, don't blame me for being ruthless." Although I don't want to make too many enemies for the time being, the goal of reorganizing the armament will not change. ”

Wan Youqing and the seven people were very disapproving, how could it be so easy to rectify the armament of the guard.

But no one dares to say it, it's none of their business anyway, so naturally they won't talk much.

Kou Mengjie asked, "That being the case, but I don't know how the adults arrange those officials?" ”

Li Chuan sneered: "Those people like silver, and it is naturally best to be a rich man who keeps to himself." If he is not greedy enough, and wants both money and power, then I don't mind letting him die on the street one day. ”

The eyelids of the seven agents jumped, and they suddenly felt that the world was inevitably changing too fast.

Although he had to look up to Li Chuan before, Li Chuan was just a businessman at that time, and he didn't feel anything, if only now did the seven people find out, unconsciously, this Young Master Li seemed to be changing at an alarming speed.

The words just now, although they were plain, hide an undoubted murderous intention.

Lu Congliang felt a little frightened, and suddenly found that the more things he knew, sometimes it was not necessarily a good thing, just like now, if this commander felt that he was unreliable, would he be able to see the sun tomorrow?
