167. Upstream and downstream (2/2)

167

In Zhu Xia's words, the merchants of the Citi Business Alliance were too busy to breathe, and even the markets of the entire Han Kingdom, Wen Kingdom, and Penglai City were affected. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Outsiders who are keen to collect all kinds of data in Penglai City will find a sign.

In Penglai City, those merchants from the Han Kingdom, regardless of the size of the store, whether it is hostile or not, and what the price is, since yesterday, they have tightened the output of all goods, and all kinds of goods have been reduced in sales.

Some goods began to be restricted on a daily basis, and the scale of this restriction was constantly expanding like a plague, relying on these Han merchant stockholders, hawkers, or raw material suppliers, and suddenly found that the demand of the Han merchants was greatly reduced.

As we all know, most of the Han businessmen in Penglai City are downstream industries, while the businessmen from Qingzhou are upstream industries.

Now there is no demand for the downstream, the upstream things can't be sold, squeezed in the warehouse, warehousing and other service fees are secondary, and the entire capital chain can't be turned over immediately, although the Han businessmen give guarantees and compensation, no one knows how long it will end.

The businessmen had no choice, they began to throttle and open source, first laid off some of the guys, and then began to look for the next home in the entire Qingzhou, and some of the time-sensitive ones were even worse, if they failed to sell the things within the effective time, then these things would be completely smashed.

This time the crisis spread widely, implicating the entire Qingzhou, and even had some impact on the surrounding areas of Qingzhou.

In order not to destroy the good image of the Han businessmen, the Citi Business Alliance took the lead and threw out a large amount of money, coupled with the expenditure of their respective Han businessmen, and finally maintained the excellent image of the Han businessmen.

At this point, when the people of Qingzhou heard the name of the Han merchants, they all gave a thumbs up, expressed their appreciation, and were more willing to stay in Penglai City to do business.

Of course, because of the war, this incident is far from over, and the contraction of the downstream has led to the contraction of the upstream, resulting in the commercial recession of the entire Qingzhou, and it is inevitable that many businessmen will go bankrupt.

Especially those who like to gamble and gamble will be great, their losses are inevitable, and they can avoid it with a deep background, otherwise they will inevitably go bankrupt.

And the Bo Chamber of Commerce was stunned, they sent out a lot of wine on the front foot, and the Han Kingdom needed a lot of wine on the back foot, no way, the Han Kingdom was their root, not to mention, Zhu Xia was still the real master of the Bo Chamber of Commerce.

So those drunkards suddenly found that not only did the two pots of wine a day change to one pot of wine every two days, but the price also increased from the usual money to three dollars, and what was even more tragic was that they couldn't quit this fairy drunkenness.

On the other side, the Bo family sent people to Huang County to ask for a meeting with Huang Hou.

Huang Hou was quite puzzled, what a businessman was looking for himself, he didn't want to see it, after all, if a businessman could see him casually, he would definitely be criticized by those courtiers.

But when he thought of the immortal drunk, Huang Hou felt that it was better to give the other party a face, well, for the sake of the thirty or so pots of immortal drunkenness, the thirty pots of immortal drunkenness, at another banquet, he took out each important minister and poured a cup, and then enjoyed the amazed gaze of the ministers, and his heart was happy.

The only thing that is discolored, that is, there is no mandarin duck Zhen's unique secret recipe, he came back and got it, and found that he didn't have many things, including green onions and leeks, he searched all over the country, and there was no trace of it, so he had to give up.

"Meet Huang Hou."

"Excuse me, why are you here this time?"

"I, the Bo Chamber of Commerce, am willing to buy back the thirty pots of immortal drunkenness with three times."

"Huh?"

"Five runs are also OK!"

"Well, please wait a minute." Huang Hou was confused, and he didn't know the reason at all, so he left for a while, and privately summoned his subordinates to inquire about the situation.

Immediately, he returned to his position, and said regretfully: "I disappointed my foot, Lone has been rewarded to the ministers a few days ago, and there is not much left, Lone is not short of money, and has no intention of selling, sorry."

"If you take a pot, I'm in charge of the Bo Chamber of Commerce, and I won't give you a meal of mandarin ducks."

"This ...... Goo-dong. Huang Hou couldn't help but swallow his saliva, that mandarin duck Zhen is really delicious, it makes people want to stop, but it's too expensive, it costs a gold for a meal, and he went a few times, and finally he could hold back, but he was irritable.

"Two meals!"

"Come on, get all the remaining immortals drunk."

In the end, there were only thirteen pots of immortal drunk left, and the man was a little disappointed, but he finally filled in some of the king's indicators, and after three shifts of uninterrupted production, he should be able to barely supply.

Huang Hou pretended to ask inadvertently: "Is your country going to war?"

Obviously, if you reduce the output of goods, what will the production capacity of the workshop do? Naturally, it is to produce other things, and the only one who can make all the Han merchants produce other items must be the mysterious Han Kingdom.

The only conclusion is that the Han State launched a war.

For the Han State, everyone in Qingzhou is very curious, the quality of the Han merchants, as well as the quality of the goods, as well as the overall tight-lipped attitude, and the governance of the entire city, the equipment and weapons of the Han soldiers, all prove the strength of the country.

The tip of the iceberg alone, and the scales and claws they knew, were enough to shock people's hearts.

In less than half a year, about sixty percent of the businessmen in Qingzhou were gathered, and hundreds of thousands of people survived by relying on the industrial chain generated by Penglai City.

It can be said that if Penglai City suddenly disappears, the economic and trade of the entire Qingzhou will be hit hard, and at least hundreds of thousands of people will become homeless.

When the man heard this, he subconsciously nodded and said, "Uh-huh...... Eh, I don't understand what Huang Hou means. ”

Huang Hou smiled and said, "It's nothing." In his eyes, there are other emotions hidden.

The man looked at Huang Hou and left with his things without saying a word.

Huang Hou watched his back disappear at the end, and muttered for a moment, compared to his previous jealousy of Penglai, he still had another complicated emotion at this moment.

At the same time, the yield of wheat and soybean has increased greatly due to phosphate rock, plant ash and manure, and the planting area has been expanded, and the taste is very different from that produced in Liaodong thanks to the environment of Yongchun Island.

The hydraulic mills set up in various places in Han County and Zhuanghe County have started construction, and each stone of wheat can produce 70% of wheat flour, and these wheat flour are transported to Yingxian County to make steamed buns, steamed buns, and soybean milk to ensure the food of the soldiers.

While the soldiers were conducting emergency training, Zhu Xia and the others watched Gan Ning and Ning Fu send troops many times in the past two days to conduct a map for the terrain and enemy reconnaissance of the Liaoxi Corridor to carry out deductions before the start of the war.
