Chapter 50: Punish the Family! Xuchang Chamber of Commerce!

In front of Xun Yu and Li Ru, who were two studious students, Jiang Zhe talked about the meaning of monopoly and explained what profits, maximization, and so on, and the satisfaction in them couldn't help but make Jiang Zhe very complacent.

"I see!" Xun Yu suddenly realized, and said with his head bowed, "This is the monopoly of Shouyi, not bad!" Such a monopoly is indeed the profit maximization that Shouyi said! That's why those families are so resistant to righteous taxes......"

"Humph!" Li Ru sneered and said, "Sir's tax method has attracted countless businessmen from outside the world to come to Xuchang, and those families will naturally no longer be able to control the market as before, how can they not be in a hurry?" Family? Hum! ”

Xun Yu's face was slightly embarrassed, because the Xun family was also a famous family in Yingchuan, coughed to cover it up, Xun Yu said quietly, "Shouyi, the Chamber of Commerce you said is ......"

Jiang Zhe licked his lips and said to Xun Yu and Li Ru, "I'm wondering, can we unite these businessmen, of course, it is naturally led by us and other Xuchang officials, so that the competition between evil surnames can be reduced, and it can ...... Hum! ”

Li Ru seemed to understand a little, because he followed Jiang Zhe much more than Xun Yu, and Li Ru could roughly understand the meaning of some of Jiang Zhe's terms.

"Just to unite those merchants to form a chamber of commerce?" Li Ru asked suspiciously.

"Of course not!" Jiang Zhe smiled and said, "Xianzhang, for example, you and I are members of the Chamber of Commerce, and Wen Ruo represents the Xuchang family......

"......" Xun Yu was very helpless and embarrassed, but he didn't want to interrupt Jiang Zhe's words, after all, what Jiang Zhe said now was unheard of before.

"The transaction between me and me is naturally low and market-priced, but if it is sold to Wen Ruo, it will not be true, and it doesn't matter if you raise each one or two floors......

"This ......" Li Ru has never been exposed to this knowledge, and he is very puzzled.

"And!" Jiang Zhe knocked on the table and said, "Xuchang is now only hundreds of thousands of people, for the items brought by those merchants now, the people of Xuchang still have the strength to consume, but what about the future?" Let's just say that a year later, after Xuchang's fame increased, businessmen from all over the world rushed to Xuchang? So can the people of Xuchang still have the ability to consume such a large amount of materials? ”

Xun Yu and Li Ru glanced at each other, and they didn't understand Jiang Zhe's list of terms such as consumption, but they were afraid of disrupting Jiang Zhe's thoughts, so they each found a piece of paper to record what Jiang Zhe said one by one, and asked Jiang Zhe one by one after Jiang Zhe finished speaking.

"So I'm thinking, if Xuchang is built into a consumer market, this will not work, after all, the life of the people in Xuchang is not very stable, and the purchasing power is too low, so what should I do? The only way out is to build Xuchang into a material transit city! ”

Sighing, Xun Yu wrote down everything Jiang Zhe said word for word, because he really couldn't understand a word......

"Merchants can't come from one place, and it is impossible to buy and sell only one kind of item, some merchants want to sell grain and buy salt, some merchants want to sell salt and buy cloth, and some want to sell cloth and buy horses, etc., if it was before, these merchants naturally had to run south and north to buy the materials they needed, but in Xuchang in my conception, no matter what they want to buy, they can buy it in Xuchang; No matter what you want to sell, you can sell it in Xuchang! ”

Li Ru finally replied, "It seems to have a reason with the market......

"Yes!" Jiang Zhe nodded and said, "But Xuchang is not an ordinary market, Xuchang wants to become a market all over the world!" ”

Xun Yu conceived Jiang Zhe's words in his mind, his hands trembled slightly, all the businessmen in the world went to Xuchang? What a spectacle this is? In the future, just Xuchang's taxes will be able to afford the armaments under his rule......

"But ......" Xun Yu looked at Jiang Zhe suspiciously and asked, "Shouyi's words come and go, Yu still doesn't know, what does this have to do with the family?" Even if Xuchang is in the future, he can buy and sell what he needs from Xuchang......"

Jiang Zhe smiled and said, "You can buy it, and of course you can sell it, but it's ...... price?"

Xun Yu suddenly understood in his heart, pointed at Jiang Zhe and said, "Shouyi's intentions are sinister, could it be that there is something strange in this chamber of commerce?" ”

"It's not strange, it's just that the internal merchants buy and sell at a low market price, and for the outside, it's naturally higher than the market price......

Xun Yu nodded secretly, but after hesitating, he opened his mouth and said, "Shouyi, this plan is wonderful, what Shouyi said is something that we have never heard of, presumably those families will not understand it in their hearts, but, Shouyi, don't be too harsh on the family, the lord has a great cause, and you can't get his help!" ”

"Don't worry!" Jiang Zhe said with a smile, in fact, Jiang Zhe also wanted to understand that in the era of the Three Kingdoms, where there were many families, if you want to suppress the family, you will inevitably encounter a strong backlash from the family class in the world, but if you only let it suffer some dark losses, it will not be so bold and reckless in the future, this is still desirable......

Hang those families for a few days first, and then knock them out on the entrance fee, which can be regarded as revenge for daring to resist my first decree......

So, a day later, when the Xuchang family was in full swing to unite all the families in Xuchang and planned to put pressure on Jiang Zhe, Jiang Zhe slowly released a decree:

"Headed by the Xuchang government, the Xuchang Chamber of Commerce will be formed, and those who join the club need to pay a membership fee of two hundred thousand yuan!"

All the businessmen and families who were staring at Jiang Zhe's movements really didn't understand the meaning, what was the Chamber of Commerce? What are the benefits of joining the Chamber of Commerce?

The family was hit by Jiang Zhe early, and planned to wait and see what happened, and then deal with it after the matter was clear.

But the attitude of the businessman is different, in their eyes, Jiang Zhe is equivalent to their reincarnation benefactor, two hundred thousand yuan? Is that also called money? So a large number of businessmen paid their entrance fees one after another and entered the Xuchang Chamber of Commerce that Jiang Zhe called ......

In just ten days, those who were in Xuchang heard about it, and there were more than 200 people who joined the Chamber of Commerce......

Jiang Zhe brought more than 200 people to his mansion and hosted a banquet for them......

Of course, this is just Jiang Zhe's official answer, in order to celebrate the establishment of the Xuchang Chamber of Commerce, please eat......

But a discerning person can see at a glance that there is a strange thing, if it is just to invite those merchants to dinner, why are all the guards guarding around Jiangfu replaced by the most ferocious soldiers of the Tiger and Par Battalion? And there were three hundred of them!

Those businessmen who joined the Chamber of Commerce came out and replied to others in the same way as Jiang Zhe, but those who had a heart were suspicious and could see that the relationship between the two hundred merchants seemed to have deepened a lot between that meal......

In order to avoid suspicion, Xun Yu did not inform his family, but he also got Jiang Zhe's permission, and the second batch of chamber of commerce members must have a share of the Xun family!

Not knowing what Jiang Zhe was doing, those families slowly began to disrupt the market price in order to put pressure on Jiang Zhe.

But what people didn't expect was that those merchants of the Xuchang Chamber of Commerce seemed to have an agreement, if the family raised the price of grain, the merchants of the Xuchang Chamber of Commerce would sell grain, and if the family suppressed the price of salt, those merchants of the Chamber of Commerce would buy salt, and more than 200 shops were like this!

This is nothing, and after another half a month, those families will slowly see the doorway.

At the same price, the Xuchang family was sold, and it was a loss! Xuchang Chamber of Commerce businessmen sold, earn!

Why is that?

In addition, those families gradually saw that the merchants in Xuchang gradually reduced the sale of materials to the local people in Xuchang, and only regarded Xuchang as a transit as Jiang Zhe said earlier.

Are the merchants trying to sell those things elsewhere? The Xuchang family was puzzled.

It turned out that Jiang Zhe added the most important one to the Chamber of Commerce, the second one! Information and intelligence sharing!

If there is a shortage of grain in the north, those northern merchants will buy rice and grain in the Xuchang Chamber of Commerce, sell it to the north, and then bring back the surplus materials and sell them to merchants in other chambers of commerce, and vice versa.

Seeing those merchants of the Chamber of Commerce busy loading trucks every day, the Xuchang family was puzzled and red-eyed, so they sent someone to ask those merchants.

But how can a merchant be greedy for profit and tell those families about it? It's just a few vague and perfunctory words.

Nearly a month later, almost the New Year, under the instruction of Jiang Zhe, a certain businessman said a little after being "drunk".

At this moment, those families panicked, when they were focusing on Xuchang, Jiang Zhe had already set his sights on the world, which was stronger and which was weak, and he could know at a glance.

The family was anxious in their hearts, and blushingly watched those merchants make a profit, but they were guarding Xuchang hard, and they wanted to disturb the market price of Xuchang earlier, so as to put pressure on Jiang Zhe, but how can the materials in this city be compared with those merchants who are now all over the world? You know, those businessmen also have relatives and friends, and they also have close friends!

Although there are only more than 200 members of the Xuchang Chamber of Commerce, the businessmen who are making this money today may not even exceed 2,000......

The family couldn't bear it, and went to Jiangfu one after another to pay respects, or send invitations to invite Jiang Zhe to the banquet, the old king who guarded the door according to Jiang Zhe's meaning, as soon as he turned around, he burned all those worship posts and invitations, and when the families came again, Lao Wang said with a bitter face, "The lord is really busy with government affairs, sorry for your ......"

The families are not stupid, how can they not understand the strangeness? Now all of Xuchang knows that Lord Jiang is so idle that he can walk around the city a few times a day, and he is busy with government affairs for a few days alone?

must be deliberately neglected, in order to accuse himself and others of uniting with the Xuchang family to put pressure on him!

Resentment to resentment, hatred to hatred, but for Jiang Zhe's hand, Xuchang's family can only secretly admire, saying that since Jiang Zhe has been in power for more than half a year, don't look at this Jiang Lord every time he walks around the city with two guards, asking about the living conditions of those mud-legged people, but Xuchang has inadvertently become lively......

Especially on Xuchang Third Street, where most of the merchants of the Xuchang Chamber of Commerce load and unload goods, and then willingly pay the transaction tax......

Xuchang has developed, and the life of the people of Xuchang has also become better, for example, many people of Xuchang are employed by merchants on the third street, loading and unloading goods for them, and there is also a lot of money in the future.

What's more, he was hired to join the ranks of those merchants with a ruthless heart, and as the merchants traveled north and south, although it took a lot of time, it was real to make money!

This is the third article in the Jiangzhe Chamber of Commerce! Members of the Chamber of Commerce give priority to employing the people of Xuchang! This article is not for anything else, but simply to improve the living conditions of the people of Xuchang.

Another month passed, and finally there were only three or two days before the New Year, and those families couldn't wait any longer, and now there were only two ways out in front of them:

One is resistance! But just by looking at Jiang Zhe's summoning of the tiger and leopard camp and the trapped camp into Xuchang, you can know that he is also guarding against the family, or rather, he is hinting to those families: Don't mess around!

Second, there is only one way to compromise......

But now that I can't even see this adult's face, what can I do?

Maybe it was the luck of those families, Qiao Xuan went to the Dantu after Lu Bu's defeat earlier, and when he returned to Xuchang to hear about it, he was begged a few times by the mourning of several families, and Qiao Xuan, who was originally a member of the family, immediately frowned and went towards Jiangfu......

In addition, it turned out that Cao Ying of Luoyang defeated Li Dao and Guo Yan several times, and in the last battle, he killed these two thieves, and then moved to Xuchang with the Son of Heaven and hundreds of officials!

Under the governance of Jiang Zhe, Xuchang, which has been expanded twice in a row, is finally about to usher in its most glorious moment!

However, now Jiang Zhe didn't think about it so much, just coaxed Cai Yan while waiting for Cao Ying, after all, borrowing money from Cao Ying to marry a wife, but not waiting for Cao Ying's words, it seems a little unreasonable......

"Humph! If you don't come back for the New Year! Don't even want to get a penny from me! Standing at the door of his mansion, Jiang Zhe looked at the west and said viciously.
