Early in the morning, the back door of Wang Kai's private house in Shenyang opened a crack. A round-faced head with a melon-skin hat and two mustaches poked his head out of the doorway.

The alley outside the back door was deserted, with only mottled walls and grass in the corners. The round-faced head squeezed out of the door, revealing the size of a fat man. He cautiously walked down the corner towards the alley, and before he reached the mouth of the alley, he heard someone talking outside.

"Today, I must see this king, and I have to ask for back the money we invested in the 'money-making treasure'."

"Coming back? It's hard for me to see. Since I heard that there was a war in Fushun, my heart was tight. I took a look at the prospectus of 'Money Maker', guess what I saw? There are a lot of small words written in the dense clauses, including 'in the event of war and other force majeure circumstances, this wealth management product will not cover compensation'. Don't you say that this is a cheat? ”

"Yes, yes, this kid surnamed Zhou is too unauthentic. My lord has already gotten to the governor of Liaodong, Lord Li. In any case, I had to get the money back. ”

"You have no use in suing Master Li. Li Weihan and Master Li originally wanted to eat dry stocks, but Zhou Qingfeng was stunned and didn't do it. Li Da was very popular and sent people to find Zhou Qingfeng's top official, Li Yongfang, but in the end, he was greedy for profit and invested 20,000 taels in the 'money-making treasure'. Now the governor is also in a hurry, and has already sent his standard camp to Fushun to ask for money. ”

"Hey......, it's useless to go to the standard camp. Haven't you heard? That Zhou Qingfeng was amazing, he was the first in the world when he was young. The general who led the team in the standard camp was originally dissatisfied before he went to Fushun, but after he went, he behaved like a cat. I heard that he was beaten and couldn't win at all. ”

"I also heard about this evil sect, and now the entire Liaodong officialdom says that this little Fushun hundred households are too domineering, and several adults can't do anything about him. Now that there is war in Fushun again, we have no choice but to come to this king. If we can't get the money back, we will eat the black-hearted Mr. Wang Kai. ”

The fat man who came out of the back door heard this discussion and cursed a few words in his heart. But he couldn't go any further, so he had to turn around. But as soon as he turned around, the people at the mouth of the alley looked at his back coldly and immediately shouted: "Oh, the king is out." Catch him, don't let him run. ”

"Fat Wang, what do you mean? Wear a hat and a mustache, and we won't know you? "The alley was narrow, but more than a dozen people poured in from outside. The fat man couldn't run, and after a while, he was caught up. He could only wave his hands again and again and shout, "Everyone, everyone, slow down." ”

"Wang Kai, pay back."

"You black-hearted fat man, if we hadn't listened to your encouragement, how could we have invested money? You and Zhou Qingfeng must be in the same group. ”

"If you don't pay back, I will arrest you and take you to the official. If we don't get the money this time, we won't give up. ”

The people who surrounded him kept shouting and scolding, and the fat man who was surrounded was Wang Kai, who used to stand on the platform for 'making money'. He looked at the angry crowd around him, and knew that he must not show weakness, so he shouted: "Enough, enough!" Do you still want money? If you want money, shut up Lao Tzu. ”

Those who owe money are more horizontal than those who ask for money, and a bunch of people who ask for money really quieted down, staring at Wang Kai with big eyes. Wang Kai gasped for breath and straightened out the wrinkled clothes in the push. He was annoyed but couldn't help it, and with a wave of his hand, he shouted: "If you want money, go to my house, everything is negotiable." ”

Wang Fatzi had just come out of the back door, and now he led a large number of people to go home from the back door. Several servants in the family also knew that the master had been in trouble recently. The scene in front of them made them panic one by one, and they didn't know what to do?

Back in the hall of the private house, Wang Kai shouted loudly: "Everyone, Wang Mou also invested money in the 'Money Treasure' like you." At the beginning, when you were greedy for profit, you begged to invest money one by one, but now you feel that there is a risk, and you want to withdraw your money one by one. Why do you want to divest from me? As long as you can afford the 5% handling fee, you will naturally be able to Fushun to recover the capital. ”

The crowd began to shout and curse again. They just want to make a profit, they don't want to lose money, and they can't lose a single copper. But Wang Kai shouted again: "Shut up for me." A few people who said they wanted to sue the officials for arresting me, there was a kind of lawsuit, but I still couldn't get a few days in prison to be clean. I'll be blunt, there's no way to get money back to me, but I have business to do here.

Cloth and grain, the premium is fifty percent, and the cash is traded. This is also a money-making treasure project, you can do it if you want to do it, and if you don't do it, you will get out. Don't think that Wang is afraid of you, now that the war is about to break out, only Wang is willing to trade in cash.

I would also like to remind you a few words, everyone knows what our Liaodong border defense is like badly. Fushun is afraid that he will not be able to hold it. Don't expect to hoard and sell at a price. When the time comes, the court will issue a military order to buy the goods in your hands at a fair price, so you can cry. My words have come to this, and it is useless to stay with me. Let's figure it out for yourselves. ”

The voice fell, where was the person who came to ask for money willing to leave, and the hall continued to be noisy. Wang Kai couldn't get away, so he could only stay with him. He was originally ordered by Zhou Qingfeng to come to Shenyang to purchase supplies, and he didn't have a good life for a few days after he came.

The governor and chief military officer of Liaodong also called Wang Kai for questioning, and all kinds of coercion and temptation were useless. Zhou Qingfeng has firmly controlled Fushun in the name of military management, and at present, the enemy is not good, and no one can save face. A bunch of big officials threw rat traps, but they didn't dare to do anything with him. In the end, Wang Kai could only be released.

After arguing for a long time, someone finally had no choice but to ask in tears: "Outside the king, the old man invested 5,000 taels in the 'money-making treasure', which is my family's savings for decades. If I lose it, I'll have to hang myself. But you just said that the premium is 50% to receive the goods, but is it true? ”

Wang Kai casually took out a book fold from his pocket, spread it out and said: "As long as the various goods on this catalog are transported to Shenyang, I will quickly send someone to Fushun and let Zhou Baihu go down the river to pay you." One hand of money, one hand of goods, Tong Su is not deceived.

I won't hide it from you, Master Li Weihan and Li have already sold us 20,000 stone of grain, and the price I gave is 4 taels or 5 yuan a stone, which is 90,000 taels. Master Li only invested 20,000 taels in the money-making treasure, and he had already earned his capital. If you don't do business with me now, you will cry when all the money in the money is spent. ”

The Hunhe River passes through Fushun and also flows through Shenyang, and it is to be transported downstream anyway, and it is the same for boarding a boat in Shenyang. As soon as Wang Kai said this, everyone in the hall was shocked - no wonder this black-hearted profiteer could sit here safely, it turned out that he had already fed the governor of Liaodong. With the greed and black heart of officialdom, he is really a dead friend who is not a poor man, and absolutely no one cares about the life or death of others.

This time the situation reversed, and the idea of making a fortune in business began to rise. Everyone in the hall originally unanimously condemned Wang Kai, but Wang Kai provoked their anxiety, and the side with a large number of people instead influenced each other and became irrational. There are more and more people who are willing to do business and make a profit.

Seeing that the form was not right, many die-hard creditors who lacked cloth and food suddenly beat their chests. They also want to sell their goods at a premium to reduce their losses. But for non-cloth grain, Wang Kai is another face.

"What do you have? Field property? Don't, don't, don't, it's a mess, who wants this thing that can't be taken away. I myself have thousands of acres of land in Fushun, and the low price of one or two acres is not yours? ”

Usually there are at least a dozen taels of land per acre, but Wang Kai has one or two acres, and there are really people who are greedy and want to take advantage of it and want to buy it. After all, the official gentry of the Ming Dynasty have not yet tasted Nurhachi's power, although some people feel that the border trouble is serious, but at most it will be calmed down in half a year and a year. Now is a good time to buy the bottom at a low price.

Wang Kai took out the land deed on the spot and traded it, and the property in Fushun was also sold at a discount. He not only sold his own, but also sold Li Yongfang and other Fushun bureaucrats. He didn't want silver, he had to exchange land for goods - after a while, this ultra-low-priced industry was in short supply. It must be coordinated by the proportion of investment in 'making money', and only those who invest more can take advantage.

Seeing all kinds of real estate in Fushun being frantically snapped up, Wang Kai couldn't help but sigh in his heart. If he hadn't followed Zhou Qingfeng, he clearly knew that the war in Liaodong would definitely be out of control, and he would definitely be one of the snappers. And now he's in charge of cashiering and collecting goods - it's really important to follow the right boss, otherwise even the most perfect calculation will lose everything.

In addition to the purchase of cloth and grain at a premium, other commodities were purchased at a discount. For example, hired labor.

Every time there is a war and a war, a large number of refugees will be created, and the price of the population will become very cheap. Displaced people sell themselves for a bite to eat. Wang Kai bought mechanics, women and children for Zhou Qingfeng. At present, it mainly recruits skilled workers.

There are a number of workshops in Shenyang and Liaoyang, many of which are artisans under the control of the government. These people have no personal freedom, their living conditions are extremely harsh, and their work attitude is even more perfunctory. But Zhou Qingfeng still decided to accept a batch at a low price, as long as the management is strengthened, it is a little easier than re-cultivating by himself.

In addition, Wang Kai collects a lot of things, from a needle and a thread to firewood, rice, oil, salt, to pots and pans, all daily necessities. Carriages, horses, cattle and sheep, knives, axes, guns and spears, means of transport and weapons and equipment are also required. Anyway, he is desperately spending the money, and he doesn't want to keep a copper plate.

These goods were either transported by water or by land, in any case, to Yingkou, hundreds of miles away. Waiting for the pile of creditors in the hall to be sent away, Wang Kai found that it was already west and about to go down the mountain the first day. Thinking that he was going to go out secretly early in the morning, now he felt hungry and hungry to death.

"What about people? Where did they all die? Wang Kai sat in the hall and scolded loudly: "Master, I'm dying of hunger, go and get me a bowl of noodles." ”

The whole private house is quiet. After shouting for a long time, a little guy came in and said, "Master, didn't you arrange for everyone in your family to leave along the river to go to Yingkou?" ”

"Is there no one in the house?" Wang Kaiqi said.

The little guy smiled bitterly, "There are only those who live in Shenyang like me for a long time and refuse to leave." The servants and the children you bought are gone. If you're hungry, I'll go out on the street and buy you a few cookcakes? ”

Cooking cakes? I haven't eaten that thing in years.

But at present, the family is afraid that even the cooks have been evacuated, and no one is working to cook. Wang Kai could only nod, took out a few coins of silver from his pocket and handed it out, "Buy more, presumably you are also hungry, eat with me." ”

"Thank you, sir." The little guy left quickly and came back quickly. The master and servant relied on a few pieces of cooking bread and two bowls of noodle soup to fill their stomachs. After eating and drinking, Wang Kai sighed and said to the little guy: "I know that you Shenyang locals are unwilling to follow. But my lord, I would like to remind you today, buy more rice and grain, and hurry to the countryside to join your relatives. ”

The little guy hurriedly smiled and asked: "The master must be joking and scaring me, isn't it enough for Nurhachi to beat Fushun, and he dares to come to Shenyang?" ”

Wang Kai shook his head with a wry smile, he looked at the sun outside the hall at dusk, and said in a panic: "It's better to be a peaceful dog than a troubled world." The catastrophe is coming, if you want to live, run away. ”
