Since Mukden dares to snatch soybeans with the Japanese, it proves that they are fully prepared, and if they want to rely on simple intimidation, it will definitely be ineffective, and the only way now is to raise the price as well, and the Fengjun will launch a acquisition competition to suppress the momentum of the Fengjun with financial resources.

"Kimura-kun, let's mobilize funds immediately, the faster the better, otherwise the soybean supply can't keep up, it will affect this year's production, if we can't complete the order, we will be in big trouble!"

"Well, but we have limited funds now, so it's best to contact the Bank of Korea and the Jeongjin Bank and ask them to provide loans, and also inform the foreign bank, as well as the merchants in charge of the acquisition, so that they can eat better, and don't force those farmers to the side of Mukden."

After the two guys had discussed it, they immediately took action, mobilized funds, and gave orders for the acquisition, and the Chinese comprador businessmen also got moved by the news, and they also put down their high shelves, and they also had a smile on the peasants who had been dismissive in the past.

What was originally an exclusive business suddenly became two, from monopoly to competition, and the entire acquisition scene has changed dramatically.

The peasants no longer have to endure hunger and cold, waiting bitterly, as long as they arrive at the purchase point, they can sell the soybeans immediately, and they still get real money, and those who are responsible for the purchase do not dare to deceive the peasants in terms of quantity, otherwise the common people will be angry, and it will be light to turn around and run to the other side, and if they do not do well, they will also take other peasants away, and then it will be a big trouble.

But even if the compradors raised the price and were on the same level as the Mukden government, the amount of soybeans they could receive was very limited, for the simple reason that they could receive. These ordinary people have been dealing with them for many years, and they have been bullied too hard, and they had no choice but to sell them before.

Now that the situation has changed, the common people would rather wait in line more and wait a little longer than sell to them. Moreover, many of these ordinary people are members of the farm, and from the moment they entered the three eastern provinces, they received all kinds of care from the Mukden government. They have a strong loyalty to the Mukden government and don't think about the chops that eat Japanese rice at all.

"Master, we only received three copies today, more than 2,000 catties, less than one-twentieth of last year. Hurry up and figure it out! ”

Liu Wenxin listened to the cry of the housekeeper, and he was also upset. His reputation has always been very bad. There are not many ordinary people who are willing to sell it to him, he can't collect soybeans, he can't complete the tasks assigned by the Japanese, and his career as a comprador is only about to come to an end.

"Three, you have to think about a way for you, how can you make those mud legs willingly deliver soybeans to us?"

"Sir. I thought about it for a long time, and there was only one way, which was to raise the price a little more, and these mud legs would admit the money. As long as the price is high, we won't have to worry about not being able to collect it! ”

"Damn, it's easy to say, if we raise the price again, we'll make even less, what's the point?"

"Master, you can't think so, as long as we pass this hurdle, the Fengtian government can't hold on, as soon as they stop, let's push down the price again, overwhelm the two yuan, won't the losses be made up."

Liu Wenxin nodded: "You also said that, don't look at the current competition between the Fengtian government and the Japanese, if you want me to say that in the eyes of the Japanese, Zhang Zuolin in Fengtian is an ant bedbug, and if you pinch it so hard, he will be broken!" ”

The third child nodded hurriedly and said with a smile: "Master, you are high-minded, there is nothing wrong with betting on the Japanese, and when they win, shouldn't they reward the heroes?" At that time, you will not be in charge of a county, but a city, or even a province, and your Liu Ye's name is also a well-known golden signboard in the three eastern provinces! ”

Liu Wenxin seemed to have that kind of scene with infinite scenery in his mind, and a smug smile appeared on his face: "Three, what you said makes sense, if there is really such a day, the master will also promote you and let you take charge of several counties!" ”

"Thank you for your grace!"

Liu Wenxin thought about it again, and then said: "It's easy to raise the price, but we don't have much money in our hands, these mud legs have a bad appetite, and they won't sell it to us without cash!" ”

"Then go to Jiao Wuye to borrow a little, we have given him soybeans in previous years, he can contact the Japanese directly, the funds in his hands are very abundant, and the relationship between you and Jiao Wuye is also good, he will definitely help!"

"Well, that's it!"

Liu Wenxin acted immediately and hurriedly found Jiao Wuye, this so-called Jiao Wuye was originally a veterinarian, his mind was very flexible, and he did a little business, during the Russo-Japanese War, he helped the Japanese transport war materials, so he was appreciated by the Japanese, and the business became bigger and bigger.

At present, this Jiao Wuye has a monopoly on the soybean purchase business in Beiman, directly supplying soybeans to Nissin and Santai, and has an annual income of millions of dollars, and the business is getting bigger and bigger, and the family property is getting more and more abundant.

"Fifth master, you have been looking at the love for many years, you must help the little brother, those people want cash, the gap in my hand is too big, but I can't collect soybeans without cash, so I can't do anything for the Japanese, my heart is like being on fire!"

"If you're in a hurry, I'm not in a hurry?" Jiao Wuye said loudly: "You just saw my family's big business, but you should also know that this big business is big, and the trouble is big, let me tell you, this time to buy soybeans, businessmen from all over the world came to me and asked me to increase the acquisition funds, but you also know that the money given to me by the Japanese is also limited, and it can't be exchanged!" ”

Liu Wenxin's face was bitter, and he said flatteringly: "Fifth master, don't be happy with the little ones, the Japanese are so rich, they can buy the entire three eastern provinces, it's not a problem, where will there be such a little money." ”

Jiao Wuye squinted his eyes and glared at him: "You are really so rich as a Japanese, let me tell you that things are troublesome!" In the past, in the three eastern provinces, the money of the Japanese was circulated in the south of Manchuria, and the money of Russia was circulated in the north of Manchuria, that is to say, as long as the Japanese took a few pieces of paper, they could immediately turn into real money! But now the situation is different, the entire three eastern provinces are circulating in the ticket, and the people sell soybeans to receive the ticket, and the money you give to the Japanese is not recognized, and now there are two choices, either to get the ticket, or to use the ocean. ”

Jiao Wuye has a higher status and a longer view, he has noticed the financial problems, in previous years, the Japanese paid money, very happy, but now the funds are also tight, speaking of which also makes him feel a little uneasy, this time and Fengtian competition, whether the Japanese can take advantage of it, is still between the two, it can only depend on who holds up to zuihou!

"Fifth master, no matter what, you pluck your hair, it's thicker than my waist, at this time, you must pull me, little brother, please!"

Saying that Liu Wenxin was about to kneel, Jiao Wuyi pulled it up and sighed: "Don't come to this set, we all eat a bowl of rice, you go to the account room to receive 100,000 oceans, I will contact the Japanese again, and ask them to quickly allocate more funds to come, otherwise we won't last long." ”

The price of soybeans purchased by comprador businessmen in the three eastern provinces has generally increased, and has reached three yuan and one two, and even to three yuan and two three, which has overpowered the price set by Fengjun, and many peasants began to sell soybeans to them.

"Humble words, how do you think the current situation should be handled, should we also increase the price?"

Although Guo Zongxi is the governor of the province, he is still very polite in front of Zhang Tinglan, even humble, and looks like asking for instructions.

Zhang Tinglan said with a smile: "Governor Guo, there is no point in blindly competing with the Japanese for price, let's do it better." While speaking, Zhang Tinglan asked the adjutant to invite a young woman, it was Qiao Lanyun, who held a stack of documents in her hand and sent it to Guo Zongxi.

"Governor Guo, I have drawn up a new jihua, just to compete with the Japanese for the price, it will become a money-burning game, although we are not afraid of Japan, but there is no need, we have to give full play to our advantages. In this jihua, we will set up additional purchase points, set up a special transport fleet, to the farmers' fields, directly pull away the soybeans, farmers do not have to go all the way to the county, directly sit on the kang to collect money. Our unified acquisition, unified transportation, and reasonable storage can save a lot of costs, and the people can also get more benefits! ”

Guo Zongxi looked at Jihua, and nodded with a smile and said: "This method is good, we already have a farm, and the low-level government, let them coordinate, our acquisition work will be much easier, this is a good way to promote strengths and avoid weaknesses!" ”

Guo Zongxi immediately went to arrange it, Zhang Tinglan said with a smile: "Miss Qiao is really talented, I want to hire a girl as a special economic consultant, I don't know if the girl is willing?" ”

As soon as Zhang Tinglan said this, Qiao Lanyun's face turned slightly red, she is not stupid, Zhou Xinyao was first hired by Zhang Tinglan as a health consultant, then became a wife, and now she has become an economic consultant, so what will happen next, she doesn't know in her heart!

Qiao Lanyun's face was full of shyness, she was silent for a long time, and nodded slightly, even if she agreed to this proposal, her heart was already in turmoil.

The Fengtian government quickly adjusted its acquisition strategy, and the comprador businessmen, who had finally improved somewhat, faced a huge challenge again, and Liu Wenxin completely fell into passivity.

"Master, why don't we hire people, rent a fleet, and go to the countryside to buy soybeans, and we can't be snatched away without our eyes, right?"

"It's easy to say, but these all need money, where can I conjure up so much money!"

"Master, now in addition to continuing to ask Jiao Wuye for help, we can only use our own funds, Master take out all your savings, we must survive this hurdle." (To be continued......)
