Chapter 181: Fooling Jin Shang
Chapter 181 Fooling Jin Shang
"Haha, very good, my woman should be like this, this is like our New People's Army. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info "Receiving Hu Lili's report, Yang Dongfang was very pleased and very happy, more surprises to Hu Lili, I didn't expect that she was weak and had such a strong side, and dared to scold the French counselor, this must be praised.
"Dashuai doesn't know what the news is, it's worth Dashuai to be so happy."
Yang Dongfang is now holding a Jin Merchants Conference, all the Jin Merchants are basically invited over, the hall is full, everyone looks at Yang Dongfang who suddenly laughs, and a few clever people who like to speculate asked.
"What news, just right, let me tell you, the foreigners want our New Nationalist Army to help the Manchus repay 1,600 taels of silver, but my wife refused, you say, I need to help the Manchus repay the money of the Beijing Treaty, as a Chinese, is it necessary?"
It was quiet for a while, everyone didn't expect it to be this, in fact, there are few people who have heard of the Beijing Treaty, this kind of thing is generally covered by the official and not allowed to be passed on, so the people actually don't know much about the shameful ass selling behavior of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, otherwise the world would have fallen out.
"Women heroes, so bold!"
"Yes, yes, yes! Why give so much money to foreigners. ”
"That's it! If you put this money in our ticket number, I don't know how much profit you can turn over. ”
"You can multiply your ticket number for a few profits, but I heard that you lost money today, so you lost a lot of money."
After discussing the article, Yang Dongfang found that this group of shrewd guys was actually pulling calves and crooked buildings.
coughed at the moment, and then said after a quiet moment: "If you really want to lose, where is there so much money in this world, I heard that all of you Jin merchants are big households, and you can take it out casually." ”
"Dashuai is joking, what kind of big family are we, so much money, it's not worth selling the whole of Shanxi, everyone says it's not true!" The Jin merchants became excited one by one, looking scared, and hurriedly covered their money bags and cried poor.
Yang Dongfang sneered disdainfully, you have no money, the people of the whole country are healthy, and said: "Of course, this is just a joke, there are really 1,600 taels of silver, why should I feed the dogs, just use the money to beat the foreigners away, wouldn't it be more cost-effective, I heard that all of you in Shanxi can settle accounts, and everyone has an abacus in their hearts, do you say this is the reason." ”
"It's this reason, it's this reason, the handsome can't give money to foreigners in vain."
"Okay, you calculate, how much money you have to need to beat the foreigners away, stabilize the world, save the people, how many good karma each of you prepare to save the world and help the people, and make some contribution to the world." Yang Dongfang doesn't want to talk nonsense with these old Shanxi, so if he can be simple and rude, he can be simple and rude.
Finally mentioned the money, the Shanxi bosses who picked the door looked at each other one by one, showing the expression of an old fox, they had already guessed that the reason why Yang Dongfang invited them to Taiyuan was nothing more than donating money and getting silver.
Whoever came to Shanxi is not this faction, no matter what, the New People's Army has entered Shanxi, and the Manchu forces have been expelled, and they will definitely come up with some protection money to eliminate disasters and solve problems.
Before Yang Dongfang appeared, they connected in series early, and each family had negotiated, the money could not be too much, and of course it could not be donated, so they began to take the initiative to report the number one by one:
"Dashuai, I am willing to pay eight thousand taels of silver."
"Dashuai, I'll give you eight thousand two hundred taels."
"Dashuai, our family is poor, and I will pay 5,000."
"Dashuai, our family is poorer, and I will pay four thousand."
"Dashuai, my family's funds are in trouble, and I can't turn around, and I will pay 2,000."
Sure enough, it is a group of old Shanxi who are picking the door, according to this calculation, the sum of the hundreds of Jin merchants is only 200,000 taels, and they are called Huazi.
Later generations have data that show that in the Qing Dynasty, the top 16 large consortia in the country were all in Shanxi. Just adding up the family assets of wealthy families in several counties in the Taiyuan Basin, the amount exceeds 100 million taels of silver.
As soon as he thought of 100 million, Yang Dongfang salivated, it was enough to make people crazy to the extreme, and any plan to hurt the sky and reason could be used.
Yang Dongfang's face was extremely bad, as if he was angry, and finally knew the urine nature of the Jin merchants, but before he broke out, his eyes set on the eight families.
Eight families are the pillars of the Jin merchants, they are wealthy, they are the people who really influence the thoughts of all the Jin merchants, the ancients generally had guilds and chambers of commerce, huddle together for warmth, so there will be Jin merchants and later micro-business.
The eight families are the representatives of Shanxi, they are all multimillionaires, and the least family assets are more than five million, they have not yet spoken, and Yang Dongfang has still taken a knife to Lao Shanxi.
"Yang Dashuai, let's talk about what you want to do, we all know the rules of officialdom, but we don't know the rules of the New People's Army." The one who spoke was a middle-aged man in his forties, well-dressed, different from ordinary businessmen at a glance, he exuded a temperament a bit like a scholar, with a righteous face, neutral vocal cords, neither humble nor arrogant.
"You are...!" Yang Dongfang knew that he was one of the eight major families, but he didn't know who it was.
"Grass man Qiao Zhongdeng, the owner of the Dadeheng in Qi County, is handsome and polite." Qiao Zhiyong made a hand salute and introduced himself.
"Qiao Zhongdeng, Qiao family!" Yang Dongfang was a little confused, didn't he say that the head of the Qiao family went to Baotou to talk about business and was not in Qi County, Wu Dadi hurriedly came over and explained: "Master, this Qiao Zhiyong heard that you are going to have a meeting with all the Jin merchants, so he rode back from Baotou on a fast horse, and he just arrived today."
"Oh! I see. Suddenly, Yang Dongfang had a good impression of Qiao Zhiyong, and others hid far away when they heard about the meeting, and many refused to come, but they didn't expect one to take the initiative to come in.
couldn't help but take a second look at Qiao Zhiyong, Yang Dongfang had read "Qiao's Courtyard", and felt that Qiao Zhiyong's character was not bad, he was kind to the rules, the Qiao family was honest, the family style was good, he himself was also a talent, and he secretly had a plan in his heart. A sincere smile on his face:
"Liang rich man, I have admired you for a long time, Shanxi people are spreading your virtues, opening granaries to help the victims, I saw it today, and it was really magnificent, and it was extraordinary."
Qiao Zhiyong was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect Yang Dongfang to be so polite to him, he had actually heard of himself, he must have inquired after entering the Jin, so he was a little flattered, and still replied gently: "Don't dare, don't dare, just do your best to make a little effort, they are all villagers, drink the same well water, step on the same land, how can there be a reason not to save when you see death." ”
"It's a good one to drink the same well water, step on the same piece of land, just rush to the Qiao family, I think Shanxi still has a foothold for your Qiao family, and the Dade Heng will definitely be famous throughout the country and prosperous." Yang Dongfang fully praised Qiao Zhiyong, and then motioned for everyone to sit down, and then said to everyone:
"Do you know why I'm inviting all of you from the Jin Chamber of Commerce today? The first is nothing more than silver, and I will go straight to the point and say, "I have taken a fancy to the silver in your hands." ”
A bunch of people are cornered! What does it mean!
"You can not give it, but I can rob it, why I haven't robbed it now is because I want you to give it yourself, what rules do we have in the new people's army, some of you must have heard it, before the change, you were all going to be killed, and the family was raided, and then naturally I will confiscate your family funds as military funds."
Rumble! Now everyone understands that it will explode in Mongolia.
Yang Dongfang was too simple and rude, and he expressed it bluntly, which was something that no one expected, and there were many discussions when he entered, and at the same time, he was worried in his heart, and his liver trembled constantly.
"Everyone be quiet, listen to Yang Dashuai, Dashuai is so straightforward, not pretentious, he can say such heartfelt words, I think he will not copy our home, cut us and others, everyone is the owner of each number, the elite of all walks of life, don't laugh at the handsome and let the handsome laugh." Qiao Zhiyong reminded everyone on the side that he was not surprised just now, and he had the courage to hear Yang Dongfang's bluffing since he was a child.
Everyone thought that it was such a reason, Yang Dongfang really wanted to do this, and asked you to come to a fart meeting, and the early attack on the Taiyuan Basin would have washed all the blood.
Yang Dongfang glanced at him, then glanced at everyone and said: "The rich man Liang said very reasonably, you are all understanding people, so I never be verbose, second, Shanxi is a good place, looking barren and barren, not suitable for cultivation and irrigation, but there are buried treasures under it, black treasures, whoever has one or two mines, mountains and mines or something is equivalent to having a mountain of gold and silver, if anyone has the ability to excavate, in the future, I dare to say that his family assets will definitely be ten times more than the current Jin merchants' family base combined." ”
Rumble!
Everyone felt that their brains were not enough, and they were very confused, Yang Dongfang suddenly said what this meant, Shanxi people naturally understood that there was a black mine under the mountains and rivers on the surface, and this mine could be used as firewood, which was a good thing, but it was poisonous and would smoke people to death.
But its value doesn't seem to be so suspenseful, and even if there is, not everyone can do it, and the Manchu Qing Dynasty does not support commercial development and utilization, let alone allow businessmen to mine minerals privately.
So someone asked, "Dashuai, can you explain it more clearly?" This black baby is really worth a mountain of gold and silver. ”
Yang Dongfang saw that everyone didn't understand the importance of coal, so he simply explained: "Let me tell you this, this thing is to be used in the future industrial development, you must ask what industry is, I can only tell that industry can make the country strong, so that the car can run without being pulled, let the boat run fast in the water, and make your tea, silk oil mill, and rice mill faster and better. It doesn't need to be pulled by people, it can run faster than a horse without poles, just like the wind, and the reason why it can run so fast is that it eats coal, and when it eats coal, it has the strength to run, and foreigners call the thing that eats coal a steam engine. ”
"Steam engine?"
A lot of people don't understand what it is, but some people have heard it and get upset: "That thing really eats coal, spews black smoke, and is like a." ”
"No, the steam engine eats coal, and then boils water to generate power, and it can work, and in the future, when walking in the river, large and small boats traveling in the sea will be equipped with a steam engine, and in the future, our various workshops will be the same, and our cars will be the same in the future, and our lives will be inseparable from coal in the future, just as we can't do without eating white rice, sorghum, wheat, corn and sweet potatoes, you say it is not a gold and silver mountain." Yang Dongfang continues to exaggerate and deceive, depicting a bright future for everyone.
"That's the reason! The problem is that Yang Dashuai can't just anyone who can build this mine. (To be continued.) )
