Chapter 634: Intense
After half a ring, Hong Chengchou's complexion changed greatly and he sat down in the chair. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Sure enough, he couldn't understand the two books that Hou Sheng said just now!
It doesn't matter if you don't understand it, but there are a lot of clear meanings of the words, and with Hong Chengchou's knowledge and experience, these theories are completely self-contained, and they are not nonsense and ignorant gossip piling up words. And this kind of doctrine is completely unacceptable to a person like Hong Chengchou, who thinks highly of himself!
"The books he just mentioned," Hong Chengchou muttered repeatedly, and his strong desire for knowledge still made him put down, and he said to his servant: "Hurry up and buy them for me, and then arrange a sedan car, and we will go to Ulzhou!" ”
The servant said, "Didn't you say that you want to go to Lingqiu first?" ”
"I'm not going." Hong Chengchou said: "After seeing Tianchengwei here, I also know about what Lingqiu is like, you hurry up and buy books, and then we leave together, hurry up, hurry!" ”
"Zhang Han is ......" After no one was around, Hong Chengchou groaned again and again, but still whispered: "Is it really the kind that comes out once in five hundred years?" ”
His face was full of confusion.
……
"I have already sold a porcelain shop, a raw silk shop, and a groceries and dried fruit shop that will also be sold." Tian Shenglan's face was full of tears, and the miserable state was really embarrassing.
However, none of the people present had a good time, everyone's expressions were similar, of course no one would come out to comfort Tian Shenglan.
Seven Jin businessmen together, originally thought that it was at least in the financial resources must be able to cover and Yusheng, this battle will definitely be able to win from the financial resources, who is fighting to this day, and Yusheng's financial resources not only have no signs of not being able to support, but the more they fight, the more courageous, yesterday and Yusheng hung out the latest gouache card, Zhangjiakou here from one to one thousand and then down to one thousand fifty.
This is a heavy blow, not only does Tian Shenglan feel that he has stepped over, Wang Dengku, who has always been full of confidence and has a strong enough personality, is also crossing his face at this time, obviously his mental state is worrying, even if he doesn't cross it, he is almost about to cross.
"Where did they get so much copper! Fuck it! Wang Dengku scolded a little angrily.
Everyone is already a big businessman on the rich side, and they are usually self-respecting, so they rarely do such foul language, but after listening to Wang Dengku's words, the other six people present actually breathed out in unison, and said angrily together: "Damn it!" ”
He Yusheng's strength is really misty, and he can't figure out the situation at all!
More than half a year ago, and Yusheng in Zhangjiakou is just an ordinary firm, the strength is really strong, but not strong enough to call everyone sideways, these more than half a year, not to mention the change of presiding manpower, the strategy of acting is also pressing step by step, and more and more showing superior financial and material resources.
Before the battle of Qianzhuang, He Yusheng gave the impression that he was beginning to become stronger, but in Zhangjiakou, if he wanted to suppress Wang Dengku and others, I am afraid that he still had no strength.
This is also the reason why Ma Chaowen and other big proprietors have not chosen to stand on the side of He Yusheng, no matter how strong He Yusheng is, his strength in Zhangjiakou is limited after all.
At this time, everything was almost settled, the seven Jin merchants combined to be worth more than two million, each with a net worth of hundreds of thousands, at that time it was a wealthy businessman, although it was not comparable with the later Jin merchants with a net worth of millions or even millions, but after all, the richest businessmen are now rarely worth more than one million, and the huge wealth of tens of millions like Zheng Zhilong is just a special case, after all, Zheng Zhilong was at the height of his power and controlled the land of Taiwan and Fujian, in addition to the entire South China Sea of the Ming Dynasty, all passing ships had to pay taxes to the Zheng family, He himself still has a large fleet of ships constantly going to sea to trade, such a scale has only reached the scale of tens of millions, and it is not easy for these Jin merchants here in Zhangjiakou to do this.
"What should I do?" Tian Shenglan said with red eyes: "Everyone is already selling their industries, and everyone knows that I have a foundation of less than 300,000 yuan, and now we are fighting with He Yusheng until the sea is broken, and if we continue to fight, I really can't stand it." ”
Jin Liangyu sighed: "How much stronger can you be than my brother in the next family?" Now it's also selling property! ”
Although the rest of them didn't say anything, they all knew each other and knew that they were all selling their property, otherwise they would not have been able to withstand the pressure.
These merchants say that they have hundreds of thousands of net worth, but most of the assets are fixed, such as shops, goods, and large inputs are fields, and the north is not better than the south, and the south can also be used to open workshops of different sizes to make the accumulation of wealth faster, and you can also buy ships to go to sea for trade, or build large gardens, which are all ways to use money. Most of the wealth of the Jin merchants has become land, since the war with He Yusheng after the business war, each family first took out one or two hundred thousand silver, which has almost mobilized all the active positions, and then the more fierce the fighting, the exchange rate has been constantly lowered, from nine hundred to one thousand and fifty, which does not seem to be much, in fact, even if it is reduced by ten cents, it is a blood loss, not to mention that it has been reduced to so much.
The whole area of the capital was affected by this business war, and you can imagine how big the scale of this business war was, and how fierce the battle was.
It can be said that in the entire Xuanda and Beijing areas, and even in some places in the north, this business war in Zhangjiakou is circulating, and Zhang Han is once again standing on the cusp. It's just that no matter what the result of this business war is, the image of He Yusheng is an improvement, after all, the image of the eunuch party in Shilin and the people is not good, Zhang Han said that he was forced to join the eunuch party, bribing Wei Zhongxian to escape the harm of Wang Xinyi, a member of the Donglin Party, but in this era when the information is not widely circulated, most people only know that there is a big businessman Zhang Han in the northwest who served Wei Eunuch, and was awarded a second-grade martial arts, and at the same time framed Zhongliang, and framed Wang Xun, an iron-boned tough guy, and imprisoned...... Of course, what Wang Xinyi himself thinks, these people just don't care and don't know.
This business war, the two sides are equal to each other, and Yusheng did not bully the small with the big and oppress people with power, which made many businessmen who were suspicious of Yusheng join the eunuch camp after changing their perception of Zhang Han, after all, in business, as long as they use commercial methods to do this, others will not be able to say anything, and Zhang Han and his He Yusheng in this business war showed extraordinary strength, but also the entire northern business community was moved, and many businesses who cooperated with Yusheng were more determined.
"Hold on for a little longer." Wang Yongfa said with a tired face: "I still don't believe that He Yusheng can have so much silver and prepare so much copper several years in advance." ”
This time and Yusheng has been in Zhangjiakou to exchange more than 300,000 yuan, plus the semicolon money in various places, at least 400,000 strings of copper coins have been redeemed, although these money is almost insignificant compared to the market of tens of millions of people in the entire north, just a Zhangjiakou can easily digest this number, seven Jin merchants through various channels, but also smashed more than 300,000 taels of silver, bought a large amount of gold back money exchange, and at this moment, their money in the village still has tens of thousands of strings of copper coins, but once again down than exchange, The Jin merchants couldn't hold it anymore.
Wang Dengku was also a little unwilling, and He Yusheng had always been unhurried, which also gave him a lot of hope: "Okay, let's take a look at it for two or three days." ”
……
Three days later, in front of the branch of Yusheng Qianzhuang.
In just a few days, due to the downward adjustment of the exchange rate again, many merchants who had already exchanged money once again took action, even if they did not have much cash, they were also hurrying to mobilize silver to exchange at this time. Ordinary people have always been in an endless stream, but due to the slow transmission of news, the people who were originally only Zhangjiakou were more than the exchange, and now after the downward adjustment again, the news suddenly spread explosively, and in a few days, most of the people who came to exchange money were ordinary people who were hundreds of miles around.
Maybe many people in later generations can't imagine that there are many people who are hundreds of miles away in Daming, in order to exchange for one or two silver copper coins, they walked for two days, that is, they took some miscellaneous grain cakes and drank water on the way, so they came to exchange more than 1,000 yuan, and then walked back with a smile.
There are too many people to come, almost forming a landscape, looking at those who are walking on the road to Zhangjiakou with a small bag on their backs, they don't need to ask to exchange copper coins, the beginning of the copper money trading in the countryside is still complaining, feeling that they were robbed of business by Yusheng, and then thought about it, such an exchange method must not be the norm, but to take advantage of the cheap time to exchange more, their own money in the future is afraid to be more, this thought, is even small businessmen, small pawnshops and loan sharks are also running to make fun.
There was so much flow of people that it alarmed the governor of Xuanda on Yanghe's side, and directly ordered the general Zhangjiakou to send more soldiers and horses to patrol, so as not to cause bandits at this time and provoke the people to revolt, which was a trouble that should not be had.
As for after arriving in the fort, there is no need to worry too much, and Yusheng has his own manpower to maintain order, and people are honestly queuing in and out, which improves efficiency, and Yusheng's copper coins are really exchanged at will, maintaining a good reputation all the time.
In this case, people are only happy and happy, hundreds of people come from afar, always with a little worry, the nearly three hundred dollars may be their daily pocket money and expenses for several months or even more than half a year, the price of Daming is still low so far, especially in the northwest, the silver of sea trade is now pouring into the southeast, the prices over there began to rise, the northwest side is still relatively stable, and it has not risen much.
The hundreds of dollars earned by the exchange can be called to a farmer to buy dozens of chickens, or catch two piglets to raise, and the worst is to buy an underage grass donkey.
Ma Chaoren and Li Mengnian were sitting and drinking tea in a corner of the store lobby, when a farmer with a small bag on his back suddenly walked up to the two, knelt down on the spot and saluted, without speaking, and then stood up and left.
After being in the store for a long time, the two of them are also used to such a scene, these Qianshou people are clumsy, it is difficult to say appropriate words of thanks, but the gratitude of these people is not the slightest false, so that people feel the sincerity and intensity. Ma Chaoren said sincerely: "If I hadn't followed Master Zhang, I'm afraid I wouldn't have had the opportunity to see such a scene in this life." ”
Li Mengnian couldn't help but be excited, and said: "This incident is not only a business war between us and the Jin merchants, but also a great thing that benefits the people's livelihood. ”
