Chapter 130: Business Talent
"It turns out that you ......" Hearing Zhao Zhe say this, Chen Susu also understood. It turned out that this Zhao Gongzi was the backstage of her sister Yan.
Cai Guyan slowly unveiled his veil, and his expression was as cold as smoke as usual: "It's nothing, it's just a little boring to stay alone in the capital." followed Su Su to Liaodong to relax. ”
Zhao Zhe only felt a loss for a while, and thought that he hadn't run to visit her for two months. No wonder she could smell a trace of resentment when she spoke. He laughed dryly, stepped forward to help her shoulders and said, "Aren't I very busy this time, there are many things that I need to deal with personally." I'm still very worried about you. Immediately, he quickly shifted his focus and said, "You, don't you know that Liaodong is very dangerous?" Don't let anyone inform me, and I'll arrange some masters to protect you. ”
"It's nothing, I'm originally a lonely leaf in this world, and I'm already satisfied to be able to get your occasional attention." Cai Guyan said lightly, and after a little struggle, he got out from his clutches, stepped forward and saluted Yun Bingmeng, who was a little embarrassed: "Yan'er has seen Sister Meng. ”
"Hello Sister Lone Smoke." Yun Bingmeng blushed and nodded slightly.
Zhao Zhe was also a little helpless against Cai Guyan. Maybe it has something to do with her life experience and all kinds of hardships, she sees everything very lightly, even her own life. Moreover, she didn't care about his status as an emperor at all, she never just treated him as an ordinary person. She never flattered him because he was the emperor, how she lost her temper and how she spoke, all by her own surname. This can't be really done, including Yun Bingmeng.
But Zhao Zhe knew that there was one more thing in her life that she cared about. That's who you are. Perhaps, she is already the only nostalgia and sustenance in her life. It is precisely because of this that Zhao Zhe pitied her and cherished her. Of course, Zhao Zhe was also a little infatuated with the scorching heat like lava hidden under her indifferent exterior.
didn't pay attention to Zhao Zhe, Cai Guyan sat on the seat and began to chat with Yun Bingmeng. Yun Bingmeng also knew that Cai Guyan was a woman that Zhao Zhe loved a lot, and she also knew more or less about her miserable experience in the past. It's quite close to her. The two of you have a sentence, and I have a casual conversation. Zhao Zhe leaned up and interjected several times with his face on his face, but he was treated coldly by the two women.
He felt bored, so he had to laugh dryly twice and retreat to the back. It's not to blame Gu Yan, it's true that I haven't seen her for a long time. Second, she hasn't recognized her masked since yesterday, which naturally makes her really unhappy. came to Chen Susu, who was a little at a loss, and said to Chen Susu in a low voice: "I said Susu, how did you two hook up?" ”
"Hook, hookup?" Chen Susu was a little crying and laughing by what he said, but although he didn't know the true identity of this Zhao Gongzi, he also knew that his identity was very extraordinary. didn't dare to offend indiscriminately, so she had to answer truthfully: "I met when I was buying and selling grain, and Sister Yan's vision in business is very unique." Su Su followed to take some of the light. ”
"Then why did you come to Liaodong together?" Zhao Zhe sighed, he knew that Guyan had played a few tricks of hoarding and selling grain. But the specific process is not very clear. As long as she has something to do, it doesn't matter if she makes money or loses.
"Actually, coming to Liaodong to do this business is completely because of Sister Yan's idea." Chen Susu hesitated, but still answered truthfully: "I, Da Hengxiang, suffered a great disaster because of the calculations of some internal and external thieves. Especially in the big Hengxiang bank. If there is not enough money to replenish it by the end of the year. Once the account reaches the end of the year, it will be used and attacked by people with intentions. At that time, there will be a large number of people who withdraw money with silver tickets. Therefore, Sister Yan helped me think about how to make a lot of money in a short period of time, so I raised some silver taels together and bought enough goods to come to Liaodong to do this transaction. It's a desperate gamble. ”
Zhao Zhe gasped when he heard this, he didn't expect that Gu Yan was really bold. And this Chen Susu seems to be not small. Two daring women can play such an exaggerated trick together. These two hundred and dozens of truckloads of goods are worth a lot of money. Even Zhao Zhe couldn't help but ask curiously: "You said that you raised some silver taels, I'm afraid it won't be less than 10 million taels, right?" ”
"Ten million taels?" Chen Susu shook his head directly in denial and said: "We bought tea, silk and porcelain, at least the best goods, and many of them are of the best quality, and we spent a total of 30 million taels." Among them, 10 million taels were provided by Sister Yan. ”
Thirty million taels? Even Zhao Zhe was shocked by this exaggerated figure. Thirty million taels? Although he is an emperor, according to the emptiness of the treasury today, he wants to take out 30 million taels at a time to do something, let alone not. Even if there is, it is guaranteed that the ministers, including Shen Yijun, will admonish each other with death. It is worthy of the family that opened a bank, and it was able to come up with so much money after a catastrophe. No, it seems that there are still 10 million taels taken out by the smoke. Where did she get so much money? That's 10 million, not 100,000 taels, 100,000 taels.
Zhao Zhe's face became a little serious, he stepped forward, put his arm on Cai Guyan's incense shoulder and asked, "Yan'er, where did you get the 10 million taels of silver?" Even if you sell all those hoards of grain early, it will only be two or three million taels. ”
Seeing his serious expression, Cai Guyan no longer deliberately ignored him. It's just that his expression is still very cold, and he drank the tea and said, "It's very simple, after I sold all my food." Because after estimating that the next grain drop was likely to be very large, he borrowed a lot of grain and sold it. When the price of grain falls, I will buy it back and give it back to them, just pay some more. ”
Uh, isn't this the legendary short sale? Khan died, Zhao Zhe didn't have money to speculate in stock futures or anything before, at most he looked at this kind of economic knowledge on the forum. But I never thought that there would be people selling short in this era. Moreover, this person turned out to be Cai Guyan. Zhao Zhe stared at her dumbfounded: "Last time I came to the restaurant, you didn't seem to be with me for this matter?" ”
"You are a person who does big things, and I just make a few million taels more than a small amount, which is not worth mentioning." Cai Guyan replied plainly, but she knew that she had put a lot of thought into it. If you want to say that the first time you hoarded food, you wanted to solve some food problems for this hateful negative person in front of you. But he didn't. Then, I was completely immersed in this wonderful feeling. She also had a flash of inspiration, and after careful consideration, she made this move.
"You're really, a big surprise for me." Zhao Zhe exhaled and said with a wry smile: "I have a lot more ability than me." ”
"Sister Yan, you are really a business wizard, you can come up with a wonderful idea of lending grain to sell, Su Su admires it very much." Chen Susu also sincerely admired: "It's a pity that when you persuaded me to do it together, I was too timid. Otherwise, you don't have to go to Liaodong this time, and you can fill the hole. ”
"It's nothing, it's actually very simple. I just thought that the emperor in the Forbidden City would not watch the price of food skyrocket, endangering the people of the world and the imperial court. Although Cai Guyan's expression was calm, he couldn't help but glance at Zhao Zhe slightly. Qing Leng said: "Since you are sure that the emperor will make a move, the possibility of falling grain prices is very great." It's just that those grain merchants are burned by the desire for profit and can't see through it. In fact, I do this, and it is also very risky, after all, anything can happen before the result is achieved. Of course, there is one more important reason she didn't say. She knows more about the emperor than other grain merchants, and she also knows that the negative person is still very domineering in doing things. That's why I made an iron heart to bet on this. And she is also playing Xiao Jiujiu in her heart, if she saves more money in her hands, she can also help him when he is in trouble. At the very least, he'll think more about himself. After all, I have heard several times that he is inadvertently annoyed by the emptiness of the treasury and the lack of money.
Zhao Zhe didn't expect Cai Guyan to have that kind of delicate mind, but he was really surprised by her keen sense of smell and decisive ability to make decisions on the spot. I couldn't help but ask curiously: "Then how did you think that you came to Liaodong to do this business?" As he spoke, he diligently helped her refill the tea: "Come on, come on, Master Cai drinks tea and drinks tea." ”
"It's still analysis." Cai Guyan felt a slight pride in his heart, but he enjoyed that he was so courteous to him, and he couldn't help but feel a little sweet. This person, although sometimes he does not appear, makes himself resentful. When I'm with him, I'm quite good at pleasing people. In the blink of an eye, he almost forgot his disadvantages: "The Jurchen Department is rich in products, but in the past 20 years since the establishment of the rebel Great Zhao, the Jin State has taken the initiative to cut off the trade route with the Great Zhao. So much so that in the past 20 years, the prices of various rare medicinal materials and the best furs have risen again and again. The reason is simple, only a small number of brave and lucky businessmen are likely to make it through. If there are fewer goods, the price will naturally be higher. Since the beginning of this year, the army of the Later Jin Kingdom has invaded our Liaodong and wreaked havoc, cutting off the only remaining trade channels. The price of those goods is rising faster than the price of food. I guess a lot of people actually know about that. But no one dared to take this trade route anymore. ”
"But why do you dare to go?" Zhao Zhe asked curiously.
"Because the situation has changed." Cai Guyan calmly analyzed: "Our transaction this time is actually from two months ago in Shandong and Henan to quell the catastrophe, and we have been preparing for it. Because I know that when the imperial army is freed, it is impossible to let the Houjin barbarians wreak havoc in the territory. We only need to prepare the goods in advance, and as soon as the gold man returns, we will insert the ...... immediately while there is a vacancy."
