Chapter 811: Knocking on the bone and sucking the marrow
Qiao Baihu brought more than 30 people, his own six guards, all of whom were registered soldiers and generals of the Lu Wangfu, and the worst was also a small banner, and then the head of the Lu Wangfu and the treasured steward also sent people, and the eunuchs also sent cronies, and then there were the shopkeepers and account rooms drawn from the Lu Wangfu's own property.
This Yu came directly to Xuzhou to take over the salt market, knowing that after this Qiao Baihu came, Zhao Ziying was worried, thinking that this person had suffered a big loss in the hands of Zhao Ziying, and this time he would not take the opportunity to take revenge and make waves.
Unexpectedly, although this Qiao Baihu didn't have a smiling face, he didn't retaliate or anything, and his attitude was even polite, he obviously inquired about the rules of the salt market before he came, and he didn't want to break these rules, and even wanted to keep Yunshan Xing in charge of the salt market.
This approach made Zhao Jin and his partners sigh, and they all said that the palace was stupid and incompetent, and from the perspective of this team, there were still people who could do things.
But it's one thing to want to maintain the salt market, and it's another thing to stare at the silver, of course Zhao Ziying won't have any silver left on the books, and the people of Lu Wangfu came from Yanzhou Mansion, so naturally they can't come in vain, so they have to collect two years' shop rent in advance.
The salt market is a treasure land, all the shop warehouses are Zhao Jin's private property, and the annual commission from the income of the salt merchants is naturally the most lucrative income, but the rent of this shop warehouse is also a lot, because of the wealth here, so the rent rises every year, Zhao Ziying collects once a year, and every year to see whether the salt market is prosperous or not to adjust the rent
At present, there is nothing to doubt about the continued prosperity of the salt market, and the rent will naturally rise every year.
However, the people from Lu Wangfu insisted very much, everyone is not stupid, they also have to guard against Zhao Ziying's conspiracy, no matter how complete the contract documents are, they are not as good as real money, although the documents and deeds of this salt city are extremely complete, and they did not encounter trouble when the government notarized and changed hands.
Originally, Qiao Baihu regarded the matter of collecting rent in advance in the salt market as a matter of life and death, and after proposing and insisting, he asked everyone around him to sleep without undressing, keep weapons at hand, and horses parked outside the door, ready to escape in the siege at any time.
Unexpectedly, the people of Yunshan did not insist after objecting, but did what Qiao Baihu asked them to do.
When the news of collecting three years' rent in advance spread throughout the salt market, the merchants of the salt market finally felt that something was wrong, first, Yun Shanxing was very shrewd and would not do such a loss-making deed, and then, the people from the Lu Wangfu also began to swagger in the salt market, although they were instructed in advance, they could not be too arrogant, but everyone was not stupid, at this moment, they could always see and hear something
If this incident is born in the bazaar, it is not good that the businessmen will go a group, and Zhao Ziying Yunshan Xing will talk about it, and this Lu Wangfu is not easy to say.
But after these merchants in the salt market talked to each other, they began to pay rent, and those who can do business on this salt can always involve such and such characters behind them, and they are not small people, as long as you dare to collect it, I am not afraid that you will regret it, and someone behind them has said something, which makes them more assured.
Looking at the gold and silver in the golden and white flowers, Qiao Baihu's worries disappeared, and he was smiling up and down, it seems that he came to the right place this time, and he will definitely be rich.
"Old lady Wang, when will you give me a message? Come back soon, everyone can rest assured. "Zhao Ziying naturally wants to mention this matter.
"Don't worry, my father-in-law Xiong often writes letters to take care of him, Lord Wang has not suffered much in the edict prison, and what we agreed this time is not only this salt market, but also the wine shop, this is not paid, how to say release people, Qiao Mou will be blamed by the above if he returns the letter." Qiao Baihu said it very bluntly.
Since it is said that the wine shop, Zhao Ziying also counts his words, and immediately arranged for someone from Lu Wangfu to hand over the wine shop, you must know that at the beginning, it was the people from Lu Wangfu who did not mention the wine shop.
When they first came to Xuzhou, these people in Lu Wangfu trembled, and they were still worried, although they had been sure that they were subdued here, but they were still afraid that these rough people would turn their faces, and they came to Xuzhou to enter the wolf's den into the tiger's den, but as soon as the real money and silver in the salt market were collected, there was nothing to worry about, everything in the world was fake, gold and silver were real, these were all taken out, and the barbarians in Xuzhou were sure that they did not dare to toss, no matter how fierce they were, once they were involved in rebellion, they were not obediently bowed.
Since you are not afraid, then wealth is the first priority, Lu Wangfu immediately set his eyes on the winery, the salt market is too big, there are accounts, and it is not easy to do tricks, but there are so many wineries, it is estimated that several people are in charge of one place, or even one person in charge of one place, what a lot of money is this
Xuzhou City, Hejiazhuang, and several other places of the winery also quickly handed over, the oil and water here can be abundant and abnormal, in addition to the filial piety of the palace backer and the leader of the team, as well as the left to hand in, they can get too much, this wine is not worried about selling at all, and someone will take the silver to the door when it is produced.
And this Zhao Ziying may have pressed the inside of the winery too hard, as soon as the receiving person passed, someone immediately came to take refuge, and there were also people outside who took the initiative to contact, and the people who took refuge let them know how the winery operated, and the outside took the initiative to contact the wealthy businessmen who sold wine, and they were willing to produce as much as they could, all of which were paid in cash.
If you pay in cash, you have the most opportunities to get on and off your hands, and everyone who receives the brewery is elated.
Qiao Baihu is proud of his wealth and wealth, and feels that there is no time in life to live faster than these dozens of days, but he is also a little unhappy, the stall is too big, and he can't manage it, but he doesn't want the people from the palace to come over to share the profits and grab food, and he wants to recruit people locally but can't recruit them.
"Wait until next year, even if you kowtow and come to beg, grandpa won't agree" Regarding this situation, he can only be ruthless, while pinching his nose and writing to the palace to ask more people to come.
"Master Qiao, this wine shop has also been handed over, can Old Lady Wang release it? Let's send someone to meet Jingshi. ”
The handover of the winery was very fast, and it had already been handed over around June 20, and the people on Zhao Ziying's side naturally had to politely urge.
"Don't worry, with our father-in-law Xiong here, Lord Wang will not suffer, I will write to ask." Qiao Baihu also said with a haha.
From Xuzhou to Ziyang City, the capital of Yanzhou, it takes two and a half days to expedite the horse, and it takes five days to go back and forth, but this time Qiao Baihu's letterhead exchange is very fast, and there is a letter on June 23.
Qiao Baihu looked quite heavy when he saw Wang Zhaojing, who was in charge of Yunshan Xing, and first sighed and said: "It's a coincidence, when I went to inquire, the palace just received news from the capital, saying that Lord Wang was flustered in the prison, and couldn't help but recruit some things, and now the factory guards in the capital and the yamen everywhere are preparing to investigate, and some people say that they want to invite the Holy Soldiers to suppress Xuzhou, and the people on my father-in-law's side of Xiong took a lot of effort to say peace, and almost dismissed the official and lost his head, and he also wrote an urgent letter over there, saying that he wanted to keep people safe. You have to pay a lot of money. ”
Wang Zhaojing had a panicked look on his face, but his eyes were very calm, and he was even observing the expression of this Qiao Baihu, this Qiao Shan didn't know how to hide his true feelings, his expression was heavy, but he couldn't hide a trace of happiness.
"Do you still want to pay for it? Aren't these salt markets and wineries enough? ”
"This is the old lady of your family, our palace is just to ventilate and report to help, you are not willing to save it, then forget it, why should our palace bear this system, is our father-in-law's face so worthless?"
In the end, Wang Zhaojing just sighed, covered his eyes with his hands, and seemed to don't want others to know that he was crying, and said helplessly: "Since this is the case, how much more, let's think of a way." ”
Wang Zhaojing's voice trembled a little, Qiao Baihu raised his eyebrows, and then said: "Take 30,000 taels of silver out first, this silver can't be transported to Jingshi for a while, the palace will take the silver first, but such a large amount of money can't be paid in vain, I heard that you have a Kongjiazhuang at the junction of Nanzhi, Shandong, and Henan provinces, take a mortgage."
"This money is too much, can you raise it slowly?"
"It's not impossible to slow down, but the title deed of Zhuangzi must be fast, don't delay the safety of Lord Wang, that Jingshi Heavenly Prison is not a reasonable place.
After saying this, the two sides really had nothing to say, Wang Zhaojing said goodbye with a depressed expression, and Qiao Baihu was still like that.
After turning his back and walking out of the door, Wang Zhaojing's expression became gloomy, he didn't have to look back, and he knew that Qiao Baihu had a gloating sneer on his face.
Out of the inn where Qiao Baihu and they lived, Wang Zhaojing got on the horse and went directly to Zhao Jin, and hurriedly entered the conference hall after dismounting, as soon as the door was closed, Wang Zhaojing took a few deep breaths, gritted his teeth and said: "Sooner or later, this gang will be killed with a thousand knives." ”
Cao Ruhui was also in the house, shook his head and said with a wry smile: "These people are really shameless, if it weren't for the Hanjing famous wine coming out and being eaten by us, the market price of this line would be chaotic soon, and now the people of Lu Wangfu have been tossing in the salt market, and they want to buy shares in private, and what do they say to give them benefits, and the usual practice can be less, and the salt merchants are calm." ”
Wang Zhaojing also knew these things, and after hearing this, the anger on his face became heavier, and with this heavy expression, there was a hint of determination, Wang Zhaojing hesitated and said: "Big brother, as we thought, after getting the salt market and the wine shop, the Lu Wangfu will not release people, and they will knock us out of the bone and suck the marrow, and completely exploit us."
