Chapter 132: Cotton Battle
In the suburbs of the magic capital, Gaoyang purchased equipment from modern time and space and built a printing and dyeing factory that was put into operation. Gao Yang is standing quietly in the production plant area, watching the long cotton cloth being dyed into various colors and fancy through one process after another.
Rolls of dyed cotton cloth were sent to the warehouse by cart, Gao Yang followed the cart to the warehouse, looked at the huge warehouse full of piles, nodded slightly, and was very satisfied.
Before heading south to Commander Sun, Gao Yang was already preparing to launch a sniper war against Japanese-made cotton cloth, which occupied the majority of the domestic cotton market.
After buying a large number of finished cotton cloth in modern time and space, transporting it to 1925, and establishing a new printing and dyeing factory to dye some cotton cloth, Gao Yang was ready to start working.
Gaoyang has spent nearly 1 billion RMB in a short period of time, and has hoarded nearly 80 million meters of cotton cloth so far! This is already on par with the country's cotton cloth production this year in history!
If such a large amount of cotton cloth is put into the market at a low price, it will inevitably collapse the current cotton cloth market in an instant.
Not only did it hit the Japanese cotton, but it also had a huge impact on the local cotton merchants and other countries. For the impending situation, Gaoyang has prepared a response plan.
Watching a large amount of cotton cloth being transported out of the warehouse by truck, Gao Yang lit a cigarette and said lightly to Gao Feng, who was standing quietly behind him, "Get ready to do it." ”
A new day began, and many Modu citizens who went to work and grocery shopping were surprised to find that there were temporary mobile warehouses in many places in the urban area.
The mobile warehouse is full of all kinds of cotton cloth, and the big sign says a corner of cotton cloth per foot! The current price of cotton cloth in the magic capital is three corners per foot!
Many citizens were surprised, and most of them didn't believe it and came forward to ask. After perceiving the quality of the cotton cloth with their hands, everyone was excited, and there was absolutely nothing to say about this quality!
I asked the price again, and after getting an exact answer, I had the audacity to pay for a few feet. It's really a dime!
The onlookers were all in a stir, and many of them hurried home to get their money. The mobile warehouses were surrounded in a short period of time, and countless citizens held up the money in their hands and shouted how much I wanted, how much I wanted!
There were even many citizens who got the news and didn't even go to work, so they hurriedly asked for leave and went home to get money to buy cloth. There are also many citizens in various concessions who have come to Huajie to buy cloth, and there are not many opportunities to take advantage of it!
The same scene is playing out at the same time in many cities around the Magic City.
Magic City, the Textile Industry Guild. A number of giants in the domestic textile industry in the magic capital have gathered here.
"Xingong, now we can't sell a foot of our cloth! You've got to get an idea for the big guys! Huang Chengcheng, the owner of Daguang Yarn Factory, shook the fat on his face and said urgently.
The person known as Xingong is the boss of the textile industry in the magic capital, Li Xinren, the owner of the Xindadi Textile Company. He is a native of Ningbo, Zhejiang. At the age of 17, he came to the magic capital to work hard, and worked hard for decades before he went from a small apprentice to open his own factory!
At this moment, the big boss, who is nearly seventy years old, is sitting on a chair with a gloomy face, looking at the commotion below.
"Bang!" A bang. Li Xinren slapped the table fiercely and shouted, "Don't make any noise!" It's not that good, I messed up the square inch first, what kind of system! ”
The scene immediately fell silent, and everyone turned their eyes to Lee Shin-in, expecting the industry leader to come up with a good solution.
Picking up the teacup and taking a sip, Li Xinren raised his gaze and glanced coldly at everyone present. He snorted heavily. Only then did he slowly speak, "Do you know who the other party is?" ”
Everyone in the room shook their heads in unison.
"A bunch of rubbish! I don't even know who the other party is, how can I fight? Li Xinren said angrily.
"Xingong, I'll also ask the patrolmen to inquire. But the patrolmen said they couldn't control it! The faces of everyone present were not good-looking, and they paused for a while. An emaciated middle-aged man spoke up.
"Huh? They are openly selling goods on the streets, disrupting the market, why can't the patrols control it? Li Xinren said with a disbelieving expression.
"Xingong, they are all sold in the Chinese world. Now the patrols in the Chinese realm are all from the High Overseer! They said they couldn't. We can't help it. The middle-aged man continued.
Just then, the door to the venue was opened. Seeing someone walk in, everyone present stood up to greet them. Greet in unison, "Boss Zhao!" ”
The person who came was Zhao Lan, the owner of the magic capital Hongtu Textile Company. This person is a rising star in the textile industry of the magic capital, and he is only in his forties this year, and he has already created a large industry. It was only because he was inferior to Li Xinyang in terms of age and age that he was relegated to the position of vice president of the guild.
After bowing his hand and saluting everyone, Zhao Lan walked in front of Li Xinren and bowed, "Xin Gong." ”
"Hmm." Li Xinren replied expressionlessly, not giving his competitor a good look.
Zhao Lan smiled lightly, unimpressed by Li Xinren's attitude. Turned around and sat down at the head of Lee Shin-in.
After looking around, he looked at the people with eager faces. Smiling slightly, he took a sip of the teacup before he said lightly, "I sent to report to the men of the cart carrying the cloth that these cloths were pulled from the newly built factory on the outskirts of the city. The factory is very strange, there is no sign, and I don't know what the name of the road is. ”
"TNND, whatever its name is, it's really impatient to dare to squeeze us like this. The big guy paid some money to find the brothers on the road to burn it! "I was in a hurry and jumped out immediately.
"Are you crazy? How can there be any brothers in the Tao now? How many gangs did so many troops enter the city and destroy some time ago? Those who were caught and killed, and those who were lucky enough to be alive all ran away to the concession. How much money can you pay for them to come out of the concession and do things for you at the risk of killing their heads? There are those who usually don't deal with it, and immediately said sarcastically.
"XXX, do you have an idea? Who wouldn't sit here and talk cool things? The hot-tempered immediately jumped up, rolled up his sleeves and was ready to move.
Looking at the commotion below, Li Xinren was annoyed in his heart. When has it been, everyone has already stepped on their faces and are still in this nest?
Just when Li Xinren was about to lose his temper, Zhao Lan, who had been observing him from the corner of his eye, suddenly got up, clapped his hands and said, "Everyone, be quiet." ”
The venue, which had been noisy and bustling like a market, soon fell silent. Everyone turned their attention to Zhao Lan.
Lee Shin-in's face was already gloomy, as if it was about to drip water! "This bastard!" Lee Shin-in was furious!
Li Xinren has been in the guild for many years, and he has always had benefits for himself. If you want to pay for it, you will share it. The money in the guild is a lot less every year when it is settled! He also arranged for many of his relatives to receive salaries for nothing in the guild. Everyone dares to be angry but dare not speak!
And Zhao Lan has had the attitude of a corporal of Lixian since he entered the guild. Treat everyone equally and make friends with heart. Never look down on people because the other party is small!
Zhao Lan quickly gained a firm foothold in the guild and received the support of many people. If this trend continues, it won't be long before Zhao Lan replaces Lee Shin-in as the president!
Zhao Lan smiled faintly and said softly, "Everyone, the other party's action this time is so big, it must be not small!" Contemptible people think that it is better not to do anything drastic before figuring out the identity of the other party. What we should do now is to mobilize the strength of all parties and find out who the other party is first! ”
"What Boss Zhao said is very true!"
"Boss Zhao is right!"
"It's still Boss Zhao"
The compliments of everyone made Li Xinren, who was sitting at the top, almost unable to hold back the anger in his heart!
Just when Lee Shin-in wanted to be furious, the door was opened again.
Everyone in the venue turned their heads to look at it, thinking that an old man wearing a sophisticated silk coat and a red sandalwood cane walked in.
Seeing the people, everyone present changed color in unison. Everyone hurriedly stood up and saluted. Even Li Xinren, who was sitting in a chair, changed his face and got up to salute.
The person who came was the domestic business tycoon, Mr. Zhang, the governor of Jiangsu Province!
Mr. Zhang smiled, his eyes swept over everyone and slowly walked to Li Xinren's side.
"Elder Zhang! You may be seated! Li Xinren hurriedly asked Mr. Zhang to sit on the top with a flattering face, and he came to the bottom to find a chair to sit down.
Mr. Zhang looked around, and finally set his eyes on Li Xinren and Zhao Lan. With a smile on the corner of his mouth, he said lightly, "It's the people of the High Overseer Army who sell cloth outside." ”
A simple sentence made everyone present change their colors together! It turned out to be the High Overseer! This news was so shocking that everyone present was silent! The scene fell cold for a moment.
Mr. Zhang smiled faintly and continued, "I came this time to convey the meaning of the High Overseer. The crowd who were still digesting the news hurriedly made a deaf gesture.
"What the High Overseer means is that all of your shops sell cloth from the High Overseer at the same time, and the price is set by the High Overseer. As remuneration. The rest of the tax will be waived for the rest of the year. Mr. Zhang continued.
"Wow~" The originally quiet venue suddenly became lively, and everyone talked about it, and the most they said was "How can this be done!" ”
Mr. Zhang was not in a hurry, and quietly drank the tea brought by the servant. After a while. The venue quieted down, and everyone's eyes were on Li Xinren and Zhao Lan.
Zhao Lan coughed, looked up at Mr. Zhang, and said with a chuckle, "Thank you for your care." I am willing to obey the arrangement of the High Overseer! ”
As soon as Zhao Lan's words were finished, everyone in the venue took a breath in unison! The eyes that looked at Zhao Lan were all dissatisfied! Everyone really didn't expect Boss Zhao to agree!
The people here have their own factories! What should I do if I sell Gaoyang's cloth and produce it in my own factory? As for what is exempt from taxes. Originally, Gao Yang collected very little tax to support domestic industry, and this year's tax is only three months left, what is this money?
Originally, everyone was counting on Boss Zhao to take the lead in opposing and being a bird. Unexpectedly, Boss Zhao was the first to defect! This disappointed everyone present. (To be continued......)
PS: Thank you for your support! Thank you! Let's talk about the update here. I'm out of town right now, and I don't have any rest on weekends! Every day, I didn't finish my work until it was almost dark, and it was an hour's drive back to the hotel. Now two shifts a day is the limit, I have to code words to more than 1.2 o'clock every night, and my colleagues say that my eyes are bloodshot. Friends who asked for three watches, I'm really sorry. I will work hard, and the support of all friends is my greatest motivation!
