Chapter 60 Planning and Layout
If it was for the former Wei Yu and others to discuss things, it would have been in his courtyard, but now because the weather is too cold, the place of discussion has already been moved to his study. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Now in Wei Yu's study, only Gu Yong is studying this with a deep face, the stove under his feet is very strong, and Cai Wenji is holding the guqin on the side, hoping to let the senior brother get a little relaxation.
With a "click", the door was pushed open, and Wei Zhongdao walked in with a tight swimsuit, and some small water droplets on his body had condensed into micro-Xiaoice crystals.
Cai Yan just raised his head, and his face was quickly covered with redness, but fortunately, Xiao Ru was not surprised to put a robe on Wei Yu.
"You guy, you have to tinker in the pond on such a cold day, and I don't know what effort you have to make."
Wei Zhongdao lit sandalwood in the room, sat next to Gu Yong with a smile, stretched out his hands and kept turning back and forth on the red basin, wanting to keep warm.
"You sour and rotten literati, where do you understand the benefits of winter travel, this son is called strengthening the body."
Everyone has been familiar with each other for such a long time, and jokes have been started from time to time between the words.
Gu Yong watched Wei Yu leisurely drinking hot tea, and couldn't help frowning and said, "Come on, just Zhongdao, you can be considered to be healthy by showing your teeth and claws in the water like that?" Now the house is busy to death, and you are the only one who has this leisure. ”
"The body is the capital of the revolution!" Wei Yu snapped his fingers, "I have already asked Ru'er to go down, tomorrow there will be a dressmaker to tailor your swimsuit, and then you will also swim with me in winter!" ”
Gu Yong's face was black, while Cai Yan was speechless, it was hard for her to imagine what it would be like for five or six men to run around the house in one-piece swimsuits.
"Revolution? Whose life is to be changed, I think Zhongdao is going to reform our old life! ”
The door was pushed open again, and the two men with hats wiped the snow off their bodies and carefully closed the door.
Xu Shu has also integrated into this small inner circle for so many days, and at this time he entered the room with Cheng Yu, looking like he had just returned from the street.
"Oh, hot tea!"
Wei Yu got up and gave two cups of hot tea to the two of them, and the two of them were also uncomfortable by the cold weather, and when they saw the hot tea, they also drank it cleanly.
"In the south of the city, in the west of the city, in the north of the city, Zhongde and I have already dealt with the shops on the three sides, there are a lot of families who came to buy grain today, if it weren't for Zhongde to learn from you, I would be difficult to deal with alone."
Seeing Xu Shu blowing his beard and glaring, Cheng Yu also smiled, "Yuan Zhi is laughing, it is still a loss that Yuan Zhi commands the overall situation, otherwise Yu alone will be unable to support himself." ”
Gu Yongweiyu looked at the goosebumps all over his body as the two of them looked at each other, and people who didn't know their feelings thought that the two of you had some ulterior secrets.
Cheng Yu also felt the embarrassment of the atmosphere, coughed lightly and said: "Today, more than half of the families who buy grain in Hedong have been the most fierce people who bought our goods at that time.
It's just that Zhongdao, since we want to cross these families, is the current food price a little low, it is better to quickly cut through the mess and double the price at one time! ”
"Can't wait!" Wei Yu looked at Cheng Yu exuding momentum, and couldn't help but open his mouth to stop it, no wonder Cheng Yu in history was famous for being ruthless, when Boss Cao defeated Chibi, he mentioned that he wanted to eat people.
"What we want to take is a step-by-step cannibalization, and now the price gouging will inevitably cause joint resistance from various families, and then it will be troublesome."
The door was pushed open again, and this time it was Cheng Xi Yangliu who appeared, and the two of them also looked like dusty people, and when they saw hot tea in the study, they poured a big cup by themselves.
The two of them came in and did not close the door, the howling cold wind poured into the house, and seeing the displeasure of everyone, Yang Liu had to touch his head and close the door.
"Nakado just said it right."
Cheng Xi was not as casual as Yang Liu, found a place to sit down, and then said to everyone: "Today, Ziyi and I went to put grain, and we have vaguely found some familiar faces, thinking that those families encouraged their slaves to go and claim them. ”
"It's not, there are some guys with extreme means who have already sent people to make trouble, fortunately Komeito is present, otherwise it would be difficult to clean up." Finally squeezed out a position near the brazier, Yang Liu added.
Now that the weather is freezing and the undercurrent in Hedong is surging, Wei Zhongdao is reluctant to let the matter of releasing grain continue to be handed over to Xiaoru and Cai Wenji, so he can only let Cheng Xi Yangliu do it.
When Gu Yong heard this, he also slowly spoke, "Let them make trouble, such a small fight will never hurt our foundation." It's just that it needs to be as Zhongdao just said, slowly and slowly. ”
"Starting tomorrow, we will set a limit on the amount of grain purchased for each family, and the salt shops, wine shops, and pharmacies under our names all accept cash transactions, all of which have Lao Yuanzhi and Zhongde."
As soon as Wei Zhongdao said this, the eyes of everyone present lit up, and Cheng Yu immediately took over, "Zhongdao's hand is really high, and Yu is not as good as it." ”
"Who's to say it isn't." Xu Shu exhaled a breath of heat, and looked at Wei Zhongdao as if he was looking at a demon, "Limiting the amount of purchases of these families every day will definitely make some families feel dissatisfied, but now we are the only ones in Hedong who can sell a large amount of grain, so these people will trade the grain they buy every day in private." ”
"But that's not all!"
The door was opened again with the three big men entering, Xu Huang and Juyi also came back, Wei Kai, who had just gone to count the Wei family's field, heard Wei Yu's deployment outside the door, and he couldn't help but be excited and immediately pushed the door open.
"Once we turn refined salts, spirits, and medicinal herbs into items that can be traded for cash, it will accelerate the private transactions of these families.
Now because of the shortage of food, these families are rarely able to get goods from us, but that doesn't mean they don't want it. And after a period of reselling, these people have cash in their hands. ”
Gu Yong continued: "And in the face of a cold winter, spirits can drive away the cold, and medicinal herbs can cure diseases, once these families buy grain goods at both ends, it will greatly stimulate them to trade the amount of grain privately." As long as the demand is high, the price of food will rise privately, and it is natural for us to raise the price of salt. ”
Wei Yu was also satisfied with everyone's analysis, nodded and said: "Our food prices are high, and their private food prices will only become higher, and these families will be grateful to us." In this way, the funds they have just accumulated will only become a passing cloud.
But it's not enough for us to recover funds at both ends, and we still need to win over one side and suppress one side. Yuan Zhi Zhongde, you will pick some reliable small families tomorrow, and quietly add more to the limit, so that their contradictions will be more intense, and we can also analyze and disintegrate these people from the inside, and come to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight! ”
Everyone nodded, and Cai Wenji on the side also put down the guqin in her hand, playing the piano can relax when there are few people, and the sound of the piano is somewhat redundant when people discuss things.
From chess and refined salt, from arithmetic and cooking, to the battle of Taishoufu, and then to poetry, plus the recent soup soup kitchen, and now the overall plan, she sent that she became more and more unable to understand Wei Zhongdao.
It's like climbing a famous mountain, when you can't see clearly at the top of the mountain, you think that the peak is in front of you, and when you climb it, you will find that you are still halfway up the mountain.
When you discover Wei Yu's talent, when you think that you are like this, Wei Yu will tell you with ruthless facts that what you have discovered is the tip of the iceberg of your brother's advantages!
The more I want to understand, the more I find Wei Yu mysterious, and the deeper I go, the deeper I let myself fall, and when everyone is thinking, Cai Wenji herself has room for reverie, looking at Wei Zhongdao's light and breezy appearance, she can't help but blush a little.
But the atmosphere is always going to be broken, especially if it is always broken by the same person, it is simply not angry, but that person is doing something serious, and you can't blame him.
"Big brother!"
Xu Huang's loud voice immediately pulled everyone back to reality from their thoughts, "Today, I went with Brother Ziyi Shaowen to put grain, and I vaguely saw some fresh faces, I asked which craftsmen who often run business, and they all said that these people came to the city today." ”
As soon as Xu Huang said this, Ju Yi also remembered something, "But this is the case, when I sent someone to find out the clues behind Wang Ya today, I also saw a lot of outsiders entering the city, and they also brought a lot of goods in the car. ”
"Oh?"
Wei Yu was also vigilant when he heard it, he didn't want any variables to happen at such a juncture, so he immediately asked: "Then Qingyue can find out where these people are coming from." ”
Ju Yi shook his head and said, "I didn't bother to ask for fear of startling the snake, but I just heard my subordinates say that these people are all Hebei accents." ”
"Hebei accent?"
"It's not wrong, my subordinates are used to going south and north, and Hebei has also stayed, so it's not difficult to distinguish the accent."
Wei Yu couldn't help but think about it again, he had no contact with the people in Hebei, and there was no grudge, if he really wanted to say that there was, the only possibility was the Zhen family.
But the Zhen family and the Wei family have been fighting against each other for many years, and it is impossible to blatantly come to Anyi to plot misdeeds, if it is in response to Wei Yu's guess, then Zhen Yi is Wang Ya's backstage, and these people should also appear in Pingyang at this time, not Anyi.
Could it be someone from the Taiping Sect? Wei Yu instinctively thought that it was not far from the Yellow Turban Uprising now, and there were also people preaching in various parts of Hedong, Zhang Jiao was originally from Jizhou, and it was natural for him to speak with a Hebei accent.
But now that the problem of postponement of spring ploughing has been clarified, Zhang Jiao is also a human being, and he must also consider the food of his subordinates, but he can't stupidly come to Hedong to grab grain, because even if he inserts Guo Tai into Baibo, he doesn't dare to make a mistake under the general trend now.
So why exactly?
Wei Yu didn't figure it out, and there was no answer to look at the appearance of everyone, in terms of the overall situation of history, these people have not seen it thoroughly by themselves, in their opinion, the current yellow turban is still harmless.
But no matter what, let's keep an eye on these people.
So Wei Yu immediately said to Ju Yi: "Let go of the matter over there first, these people are careful, don't startle the snake, I want to see what kind of waves these people can make on the one-acre and three-third of land in Anyi!" ”
