Chapter 890: Dig a pit for the Mei family
Fu Yuanling has been thinking about Yunzhou, if she couldn't have those dreams as a guide, in fact, she didn't know that Yunzhou would become the largest seaport in the future.
Moreover, the imperial court was very strict in enforcing the decrees of the seaport, which the merchants who did not pay much attention to at the beginning suffered a big loss.
Since Fu Yuanling knows this, he will naturally avoid this pit, and besides, the Fu family's money will never scrape the people's fat and ointment, which is a win-win good thing.
After Qiao Anyi and Xiao Jiuqi left, Fu Yuanling did not leave, but discussed the matter of Yunzhou with Qi Ruozhong and Yuanli.
Now that Shangjing is on the right track, Yuan Li said directly: "Big girl, otherwise the slave will personally go to Yunzhou to find Uncle Cheng." ”
There are some things that are not easy to say in the letters, and it is naturally better for Yuan Li to run in person.
Fu Yuanling nodded, "It's okay, it's already June, and seeing that the summer vacation in the palace is just around the corner, there are so many things on my side that I can't get out of, it's best for you to take a trip." ”
Yuan Li bowed, "The slave and maid also think so, and Uncle Cheng's side should be short of manpower now, the slave and maid will stay in Yunzhou for a while, and come back when the side is stable." ”
Fu Yuanling asked Qi Ruozhong, "Now if I transfer out a million taels of silver, can I get it?" ”
Qi Ruo thought about it again, "A lot of silver has been invested in the racecourse after the New Year, but the silver on the account in May this year is enough for the big girl." ”
In previous years, after the account, Fu Yuanling, who had more money on the books, would be included in her private treasury, but in the past two years, her stall has become bigger and bigger, and the more money turnover is needed.
"You prepare a silver ticket for Yuan Li and let her take it to Yunzhou to Uncle Cheng." Fu Yuanling said directly, "Once the imperial decree is issued, Yunzhou Port is just the beginning, and if we don't want to be pushed to the status of Yunzhou Port in the future, we have to increase investment, and the shipping company will discuss with Duan Er Gongzi to increase the number of ships going to sea." ”
Yuan Li wrote them down one by one, "What if the expenses exceed this amount?" ”
Fu Yuanling was silent for a moment, "Try to control this range as much as possible, if you really need to increase the silver, you have to prepare for the news for me before." ”
Qi Ruozhong looked at the eldest girl's expression, and knew that there was really not much silver on the account now, he thought for a while, "Big girl, you haven't let the account of Jingchunfang move, and now there is a lot of silver here, if you need it urgently, you can move it." ”
"Nope." Fu Yuanling shook his head, the silver on Jingchunfang's side will be prepared for Xiao Jiuqi's escort team, and the silver will flow out like flowing water to build an elite escort team.
Qi Ruozhong couldn't help it, "Why don't you ask Qiu Xing?" ”
Fu Yuanling frowned slightly, "Let's look at the situation first, you should keep an eye on it, as soon as there is a change in Yunzhou, the Mei family will definitely intervene, and there is news from Zhang Xin's side?" ”
Yuan Li immediately said: "Yesterday, Zhang Xin sent the news according to reason, and I didn't find anything unusual about Mei Chengchuan and the Mei family. ”
Fu Yuanling's fingers tapped on the table slightly, making a tinkling sound, Qi Ruozhong and Yuanli didn't dare to come out, whenever this time, the eldest girl must have something big to decide.
After a while, Fu Yuanling looked at Qi Ruozhong, "King Wu has supported the Mei family to gain a foothold in Shangjing, and in the past six months, the Mei family's business has been slowly spreading in Shangjing. ”
Qi Ruozhong's expression was clear, "Big girl, please command." ”
"Order all the shops of the Fu family in Shangjing to make a gesture of raising gold and silver, no matter who comes to inquire, you only say that I want to use silver, and don't say anything else." Fu Yuanling said.
"Yes." Qi Ruo should come down in a hurry.
Yuan Li couldn't guess what the girl was going to do, but it was obviously aimed at the Mei family, so he said: "The Mei family has always been a big trouble, and with King Wu behind it, the expansion of the past six months can be described as ferocious. The merchants of our business alliance who are losing money listen to the orders of the business alliance, unlike other retail investors who have suffered big losses. ”
Fu Yuanling is not the only business alliance in Shangjing, the Fu family's business bank has developed extremely fast recently, and even the other merchants of the business house have risen with the tide, so naturally there are other business houses that are not so friendly to them.
Under such circumstances, the Mei family chose merchants to cooperate with them, which was much better than when they first entered Beijing and did not know the situation.
No matter which line of work it is, no one can survive safely and worry-free, and the camp supported by the Fu family and the Mei family is different, which is relatively a natural result.
Although Fu Yuanling said to Fu Xuanyi that he didn't care, how could he really not care, he was not stupid, he fattened the enemy, and then gave himself a knife?
But after all, the current situation is not so tense, in this case, if the Fu family presses the Mei family's head, I am afraid that Xiao Ting's side will have to make a move.
She is not married to Xiao Jiuqi yet, and everything will be variable, so Fu Yuanling can only contain the Mei family in secret, find an opportunity to suppress it, and wait for the rest.
It involves the overall situation, and if things are slow, there is no way to do it.
Qi Ruozhong looked at the eldest girl's serious expression, which he had only seen when the eldest girl wanted to rectify those things after the death of his wife.
He suppressed all kinds of emotions in his heart and said, "Big girl, do you want to use the matter of Yunzhou Port to set up the Mei family?" ”
In addition, Qi Ruozhong really couldn't think of what the girl was going to do with the big money and the news released to the outside world.
Fu Yuanling smiled lightly and looked at Qi Ruozhong, "This battle is critical, don't underestimate the enemy." ”
"Yes." Qi Ruozhong rubbed his hands, he had long seen that the Mei family was not pleasing to the eye, and now that the eldest girl was finally going to punch hard, why was she a little excited.
Yuan Li said with a smile: "The Mei family has long coveted the benefits of the seaport we won in Yunzhou at the beginning, and once used this to wander around to persuade others to confront the Fu family. The slave maid felt that the matter of increasing the number of places in the imperial court this time was indispensable to the Mei family. ”
Once this hole is torn open, with King Wu as the backing, the Mei family will definitely be the first to benefit.
Fu Yuanling chuckled, "Some benefits are not so easy to eat, if the Mei family wants to grab them, they have to see if they have the ability." ”
"What do you mean?"
"King Wu can support the Mei family, can't the Fu family support others?" Fu Yuanling has already been chosen, and that is Duan Yujia.
Duan Yujia was originally a native of Yunzhou, and the Duan family was once a well-known merchant in Yunzhou, and his foundation was thicker than others.
Second, Duan Yujia can be regarded as a trustworthy friend, it is better for Fu Yuanling to join forces with him than to find other people with unknown details, who knows if it will change hands and hack you.
Fu Yuanling asked Yuanli to lay paper and ink, and wrote a letter to Duan Yujia about the cooperation.
Fu Yuanling supports the imperial decree, and he is so righteous as an example, he thinks that the prefect of Yunzhou will also be very interested in giving her some convenience, just like Fu Yuanling recommended Duan Yujia's firm to get a share.
