Working together for the benefit of one party?

If you really want to work together, why do you have to wait until everything has been negotiated before telling yourself about these people who are very prestigious among the people?

Lin'an's Zheng family, Qiu family, Shan family, and Shan family, to be honest, the gentry under the hall have not heard of much, but as long as they know these families, they are all big clans with extremely strong Guangdong heritage, because they also have their own main business, and naturally have the experience of dealing with the Zheng, Qiu, Shan, and Shan families, which have great influence in Zhejiang and Zhejiang.

The Zheng family may have dealt with them for a while, but the other three families have had some pleasant or unpleasant experiences in the process of dealing with them before.

Like Wang Yurong's Wang family, a lot of bulk grain was imported into Zhejiang and Lin'an through Qiu Shuyu's Qiu family; Dai Zhenbai's Dai family, a lot of raw silk also has to be purchased from the Qiu family, the silk produced in the two Zhejiang sales, but also with the single family is very much a lot of disputes, and finally had no choice but to withdraw from the two Zhejiang.

It is precisely because he knows the four that he knows better that with the strength of the four, he wants to expand a Guangzhou port, and any of the four has enough money to do this, not to mention that Jia Yidao directly invited all four to Guangzhou, and the four joined forces to expand the Guangzhou port.

Even if the current Guangzhou Port is expanded tenfold, it seems that it is not difficult to use the strength of the four to join forces.

It's just that the truth is that truth, but that's not how things work.

The four were all developed in Liangzhejiang before, and now Jia Rudao handed over the Guangzhou Port to the four to expand, and the four obviously will not benefit from any benefit, they are all businessmen, even if they give Jia Nidao face, they will not be all good people who have lost all their money.

So apart from Jia Nidao's face, what else can make those four families so bloody? There is Jia Yidao to support the four to gain a foothold in Guangdong, and I am afraid that it is the most basic of them.

Guangdong is so big, the four are like dragons crossing the river, and with the support of Jia Yidao, the pacification envoy, it can be expected that in the future, I am afraid that the life of the local giant businessmen in Guangdong will not be easy.

The gentry in the hall whispered, and soon everyone knew what Zheng Qiu and the other four were doing, and all their faces were a little unsightly.

"My lord, the grass people have something to say."

An old man in brocade with white hair and a strong figure who had been sitting beside Wang Yurong stood up and saluted Jia Yidao with a fist.

"Xing family? After the armor of the Guangdong army is needed, the old man and the Dai family will have to cooperate a lot, the old man has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it, sit down and say sit down and say,"

The Dai family with armor wearing Zhenbai can only make underwear and lining inside, and the iron armor and other things outside, but they can't do it, the Xingjia family's business is this, Jia Rudao was going to hand it over to the Xingjia, at this time Xing Dongzhe himself stood up, and he pushed the boat down the river.

However, Jia Rudao's attitude towards Xing Dongzhe made the corners of Wang Yurong's mouth twitch unconsciously.

He really did it to disgrace me.

"Thank you, Lord for your support."

Xing Dongzhe was overjoyed when he heard Jia Yidao's words.

He didn't expect that he would be able to receive such a big gift package just after he opened his mouth, so should he say what he was about to say just now? Xingdongzhe was a little entangled.

"What's wrong? It doesn't hurt for the old man to speak directly. ”

Jia Yidao was a little amused when he saw Xing Dongzhe, who was a little hesitant, and asked in a harmonious voice.

"This ......"

Xingdongzhe gritted his teeth and finally made up his mind to continue;

"My lord, the grass people think that it would be more appropriate for Guangzhou Port to have my gentry from Guangdong to prepare for the adult."

"Oh? What do you mean by that? ”

"The expansion of Guangzhou Port is a major event for the benefit of the country and the people, and for the benefit of one party, how can I, the gentry of Guangdong, be left behind? What's more, the grass people thought that if the adults handed over the Guangzhou Port to the local gentry in Guangdong to prepare for the construction, the government and the people would be united, and the matter would spread, wouldn't it be a good talk again? ”

Xing Dongzhe secretly wiped the cold sweat on his head and secretly praised his eagerness.

"Hehe, it's just, old man, how did you know that the gentry of Guangdong were willing to expand this Guangzhou port for the imperial court? And what he took out was white flowers. ”

Jia Rudao looked at Xing Dongzhe and said with a smile.

"My lord, the grass people are willing to pay 500,000 taels of silver for the government to expand the port of Guangzhou free of charge."

Dai Zhenbai was the first to speak.

"My lord, the grass people are willing to pay 100,000 taels of silver."

"My lord, the grass people are willing to give 50,000 taels of silver."

"My lord, the grass people are willing to pay 300,000 taels of silver."

"My lord, the grass people are willing to pay 30,000 taels."

"My lord, the grass people are willing to pay 200,000 taels."

…………

Immediately after Dai Zhenbai, a series of voices continued to sound.

"My lord, the grass people are also willing to pay 500,000 taels of silver."

Xing Dongzhe said with a smile.

"My lord, the student Wang family is willing to pay 800,000 taels."

Wang Yurong, who had not spoken before, also spoke proudly at this time.

"My lord, Zhang Ping'an, a grass farmer, is willing to contribute one million taels of silver to make a contribution to the expansion of Guangzhou Port."

The only lean man in the four families in Guangdong who didn't make a sound, Zhang Ping'an followed Wang Yurong and said loudly.

Wang Yurong's face involuntarily turned white again, and he secretly scolded the turtle in his heart.

"The student Wang family can also contribute 30,000 strong laborers, and the student Wang family is responsible for all food and drink."

Wang Yurong gritted his teeth and spoke again.

To tell the truth, speaking from his heart, Wang Yurong didn't want to join in the fun in this matter, let alone just take the money out of the white flowers to help Jia Nidao expand Guangzhou Port for free without any benefits, and help Jia Nidao build his political achievements. The Wang family is not the Dai family, nor is it the Zhang family, which mainly relied on maritime merchants, the Wang family has fields, and some are grain, and the expansion of Guangzhou Port will not have any impact on the Wang family.

However, if the four families from Lin'an really come to expand the Guangzhou Port, the Wang family's grain business will naturally be affected, and whether the expansion of the Guangzhou Port has an impact on the Wang family, in order to maintain the status of the Wang family in the Guangdong gentry clan, no matter how much the gentry support, it will hurt Wang Yurong no matter how unwilling he is, and he will definitely not be left behind.

When did the Wang family get the upper hand by others?

This is also the most important reason why Wang Yurong added 30,000 strong laborers after hearing Zhang Ping'an say one million taels of silver.

No matter what time it is, the Wang family is the only real clan in Guangdong, not one of them.

This is what Wang Yurong really wants to express.

The gentry in the hall obviously also understood Wang Yurong's thoughts, the Wang family has always been like this, and no one will have to earn a high or low with the Wang family in this matter, the Wang family is willing to pay both silver and people, that is the Wang family's business. You just need to show your attitude.

Ding Daquan was a little dumbfounded.

In just a few moments, just the sum of the silver he heard from the mouths of the gentry was not less than five hundred taels, right?

What is the situation, when did these gentry clans in Guangdong become so generous? The opening is tens of millions of taels of white flowers and silver, and it is taken out for the government to expand the port of Guangzhou? Which of these gentry clans is not desperately trying to make more money from the government?

Jia Yidao was not surprised at all.

Inviting Zheng Mingxuan and the other four to come to Guangzhou, if he had this idea from the beginning, it was naturally impossible. However, after coming to Guangzhou, the more he learned, the more worries about the conservative forces of the clans in Guangdong, gradually increased, so that Jia Yidao had the idea of using the east wind of Zheng Mingxuan and others to pressure these gentry clans in Guangdong.

The expansion of Guangzhou Port is just a temptation, otherwise Jia Yidao would not have opened his mouth so much to Zheng Mingxuan and others.

Now it seems to be working well.

Jia Yidao more or less understands Wang Yurong's thoughts, but this is also what he is happy to see.

People who are stupid and have a lot of money, he will never dislike them.

The gentry of Guangdong really don't want anyone to come with them to seize the market and silver in Guangdong, but after all, they can't help it.

"You are the heart of the country and the people, this official has seen it, there are all the kings like this, why worry about my great Song Dynasty is not prosperous?"

Jia Rudao said with a smile.

"But a man cannot stand without faith. In the matter of Guangzhou Port, the Guangzhou government has already made a charter with the four Lin'anlai, and I am afraid that it will not change. ”

When the gentry in the hall heard Jia Rudao's sudden turn, their expressions all changed greatly.

I and the others have already taken the initiative to send money to the government for nothing, isn't it possible that you are still not satisfied? Too little? Why is there such a big appetite?

"My lord, if the silver is not enough, we can add ......."

Dai Zhenbai was the first to speak.

When the four families entered Guangdong, the first thing that affected them was the interests of the Dai family, and when it was related to their own interests, Dai Zhenbai couldn't take care of it too much at the moment.

"The head of the Dai family is calm and don't be impatient, listen to the official finish speaking."

Jia Rudao waved his hand to interrupt Dai Zhenbai's words and said in a straight voice.

"The grass people are guilty."

"What are you worried about, in fact, the official is very clear in his heart, but you can rest assured, the official is the emperor's shepherd, you are all very prestigious people in Guangdong, the official will not sacrifice your interests to satisfy others, such a self-destructive thing The official will naturally not do.

But this matter is not irreconcilable. For example, the Dai family, which is the head of the Dai family, is also mainly engaged in silk garments and other businesses, and the single family in Lin'an may have had unpleasantness, but it is not without solutions. The official knew that although the Dai family and the Shan family were both silk and ready-to-wear, some of the Dai family's raw silk still needed to be purchased from the Qiu family, so the Shan family was not less embarrassed by the Dai family.

But has the head of the Dai family ever thought about whether it is possible for the Dai family and the Shan family to cooperate? The silk of the Dai family can enter the two Zhejiang provinces and even Lin'an, and the ready-to-wear of the single family can also be sold to Lingnan, Guangdong and other places. Why not do such a mutually beneficial thing?

In the same way, those four companies may have some business in common with you, but they are not incompatible. Just as this Guangzhou Port, four can be built, and my local gentry in Guangdong can naturally contribute. Why not work together to do more with less money and achieve greater benefits? ”
