Feng Youcai entrusted all the negotiations with Chen Shaokuan to Li Jiafu, and later Li Jiafu reported to Feng Youcai the details of the negotiations. Feng Youcai feels that Li Jiafu does have business acumen, and he should be able to stand alone, which may be the reason for exercising during this time, it seems that all synths will be given the opportunity to exercise in the future.
Feng Youcai synthesized a senior businessman Gao Ming, temporarily as Li Jiafu's assistant, and after the start of Gansu, Li Jiafu went to Gansu to take charge of overall management. Now he will first lead Gao Ming to find the thousands of household officials in Ningxia Town to discuss the opening of grain store branches, and if the thousands of household officials are willing to open stores, the Sihai Commercial Bank can give one and a half percent of the preferential measures. Feng Youcai wants to completely control the entire northwest grain market.
And decided to let the grain store in Xi'an adopt this model the next time I went to Xi'an. The market of this model in Xi'an will be larger, and the big shopkeeper in Xi'an must be required to do a good job in this matter.
Feng Youcai sighed that everything is endless, there will always be potential to be tapped, he used to be really a little white, and he is really not as shrewd and thoughtful as these professionals, don't be self-righteous in the future, or mobilize everyone's enthusiasm.
In fact, Xi'an started the agent's action much earlier than Feng Youcai knew, Feng Youcai's mind was not on this at all, and he rarely listened to the report below. Xi'an cooperation is a business, specializing in business, the effect must be better than a thousand households, now in Dingxi, Tianshui, Guyuan, Qingyang and Yansui and other places set up agents, even Shanxi Yuncheng has grain merchants to negotiate, if Feng Youcai announced a reduction in wholesale prices by one and a half, then Xi'an's business will be better.
Chen Shaokuan, rushed back to Zhangye in a hurry, he was already tired, but he still hurried to report the harvest of this trip to the chief military officer.
Chief military officer Chen Jialiang was very excited after learning that Chen Shaokuan was back, it must be that things were going well, and he was busy recruiting him into the study, Chen Shaokuan introduced the matter, mainly because the other party has a road, he can come to build a fort, open a grain store, and can operate the materials that are in short supply in our northwest, and the price for us is absolutely cheap.
The chief military officer was overjoyed, "This time Mr. has worked hard. ”
"Doing things for adults, that's as it should be. However, the other party also put forward a condition. ”
When Chen Jialiang heard this, there were still conditions, and he sighed in his heart, didn't it work out?
Chen Shaokuan continued: "The other party is not going to open a branch outside Zhangye, he hopes that we will organize some thousands of households and others to form a small caravan together, and set up grain stores in other places in Gansu, and the price can be discounted by one and a half percent, my lord, this is a good thing." “
"Haha, sir, this is a good benefit for our officers and soldiers in Gansu, thank you so much, so let's do it, the matter of the road should be handled immediately, and it will not bother the two masters, or you will work hard to do it, and you will rest for half a month after you finish it." Also, in the future, you will be responsible for all the things about this grain store, after all, you are familiar with it, and then there will be a familiarization process, if you don't have a temper, it may not be done. “
"Yes, Chief Officer"
"And what do you think about opening a branch?"
"My lord, if we do it ourselves, it will definitely attract the dissatisfaction of the overseers and governors, and if we don't do it, we will lose a lot of benefits in vain. After we also opened a grain store, the grain in our town was completely purchased at wholesale prices, which is also a means for the Four Seas Commercial Bank to intersect us in disguise, so I mean that the person who sent the letter by the adult will preside over this matter, and the adult does not have to come forward in person, and can manipulate this matter, and our town can still get benefits. In this way, others can't find fault with adults, which can be regarded as a multiplicity. “
"Good! Good! Good! That's it, and you're still in charge of it, okay? I don't want to change people, you are familiar with them, things are going well, and I don't feel at ease if I change people again. “
"Yes, I would like to share my worries for adults." Chen Shaokuan said: "My lord, how is the salt matter? ”
"I have discussed this matter with the prison army and the governor, and they all agree with this matter, that is, to exchange grain for salt, the prison army has written a chapter to report to the saint, I believe there will be no problem."
Chen Shaokuan said: "My lord, if this is the case, the benefits will definitely be greater, the salt of the Four Seas Commercial Bank is really good, fine as sand, white as snow, better than green salt, and the price is cheaper than green salt, we can not only sell in the branch, but also can ship to the Western Regions, with this way, I believe that the adults will never work hard for the military salary in the future." ”
"Is this true? How can it be so cheap? Is it a fake? ”
"My lord, it definitely won't be a fake, how could the Four Seas Trading Company dig its own grave with such a big business? Besides, there are a lot of such salt on sale in the market in Ningxia Prefecture now, and if it is fake, who will buy it. It's just that I don't know how they process it, there must be a secret recipe. And I've tasted it, and it must have no variegated colors and miscellaneous flavors, so it's really a good thing. ”
"Okay, then we can occupy this geographical advantage, make a good fortune, and the soldiers should also train and train well, and they will no longer be angry with the Mongols in the future, and we will not be afraid of anything with silver." Chen Jialiang said: "You are responsible for this matter to the end, but you must keep it secret and not leak the news." ”
"Yes, my lord, I will definitely do this well, my lord will wait and see."
"That's it, after you take care of the road matter, you can rest for half a month, I've tired you recently."
"Thank you, sir."
This time I went to Ningxia Mansion to invite the Four Seas Commercial Bank to open a grain store in Gansu, Chen Shaokuan has made a great contribution, but now the grain store has not yet opened, and we can't take it lightly. When Chen Shaokuan returned home, he didn't bother to wash it, first wrote the road strip, and then asked the housekeeper to take it to the chief military officer to stamp the seal of the customs defense, and asked the chief military officer to send officers and soldiers to send them away on the same day.
In early April, after Feng Youcai learned that he had received the road slip from the chief military officer of Gansu, he asked Li Jiafu to go to Gansu to take charge of everything such as building a fort and opening a store, and sent Li Jiafu a team of 1,000 people, including 1 heavy cavalry team of 100 people, 4 light cavalry team of 100 people, 5 army team of 100 people, and 1 team of 100 heavy soldiers, 3 middle-level merchants, 6 junior businessmen, 400 carts, and the grain was transported away from the Sihai Commercial Bank in Ningxia Prefecture, and 10,000 taels of silver were transported away as initial funds, so that he could go to Zhangye to build a fort first. I will go to Zhangye once every 1 to 2 months to set a safety point.
Feng Youcai doesn't have to worry about the rest of the things.
After the grain store in Zhangye, Gansu Province was built, the grain market in the northwest fell under Feng Youcai's control. The next step is to develop to the east, Luoyang, Kaifeng, Linqing and other places, to control the northern grain market is still a long way to go.
