Chapter 173: A Clever Scheme
When Wang Qi heard this, he suddenly stood up from his chair and asked in disbelief, "Abandoned?" ”
Hua Xiyan looked at Wang Qi steadily, there was no half-parted joke in his eyes, and he was serious: "Abandon it!" ”
Wang Qi knew that what Hua Xiyan was going to say was very challenging to his three views, but unexpectedly, he wanted to blind him!
"Second sister...... Wang Qi wanted to say something, but he muttered for a long time, and finally just spit out these two words, and couldn't help wiping his face, "Reason." ”
The Wang family has a big business, although there are many industries under its name, but the expenses are also large, and the surplus obtained in addition to various expenses in a year is only two or three million taels of gold, and now it is necessary to abandon two thousand taels at once...... Unless you're crazy, you have to think about it......
Compared with Wang Qi's consternation, Yun Qi was much calmer. He knows Hua Xiyan's temperament and never does things that are not guaranteed, since he says so, he naturally has her reasons.
Moreover, it is a reason that the Wang family will not suffer.
"Third brother, don't be impatient." Hua Xiyan looked at Wang Qi with a smile, and handed over a cup of tea very intimately, "Sister, the method I am going to talk about next, if it is used well, it will have a lot of benefits, but it is not a mere 20 million taels of gold that can be exchanged for it." ”
Wang Qi knows that Hua Xiyan is not a big talker, and now that he says this, there must be a way. The fright he received just now because of Hua Xiyan's words disappeared without a trace in an instant: "What kind of method, hurry up and listen to it." ”
Hua Xiyan took a sip of tea unhurriedly, and then spoke: "The third brother stopped transporting silver money to the south, and instead transported cloth, rice and grain, and at the same time reduced the price of these items on a large scale. Then send your own people to buy these things and sell them at a slightly higher price. ”
Wang Qi said: "What does my sister mean that I find my own people to buy my own things, and then sell them at a slightly higher price than my own?" ”
Hua Xiyan shook his head: "After the money in Wang's money is put forward by the people, if it is not deposited in Wen's bank, the best way is to spend it." And the third brother's people showed a profitable appearance of turning their heads and reselling rice and grain, and driven by interests, they naturally followed suit. And it happened that South Vietnam was in turmoil and war was imminent, and there was a great demand for these things, so the people naturally chose this path. ”
"I heard my sister-in-law say before that there is a lot of backlog of cloth in Zhuangzi, and now I take this opportunity to dispose of it all."
"But even like this, you can't earn back 20 million taels ......"
Hua Xiyan shook his head: "Our purpose is to exchange the minimum price for the maximum benefit, and some benefits cannot be measured by money." ”
Thinking of what Hua Xiyan said just now that he was going to hit the Wen family hard, Wang Qi then asked, "Then how are you going to deal with the Wen family?" ”
"The third brother sent someone to deliver the news to Wen Chun, Shengtian is against South Vietnam, and the southern army is still insufficient, so it is necessary to recruit troops."
Wang Qi thought for a moment: "When this news spreads, the Wen family is afraid that they will transport the horses they have hoarded in other places and sell them all when the time comes, wouldn't they have made war money?" How did this hit the Wen family hard? ”
Hua Xiyan sneered: "The third brother doesn't know, the border between Shengtian and South Vietnam, the terrain is extremely rugged, and most of them are mountainous, and horses are useless when fighting, even if the Wen family transports it, no one cares." ”
Wang Qi was stunned for a moment, the two armies fought, and the cavalry was often extremely lethal and occupied an extremely important position. But he didn't know that horses were useless in South Vietnam?
It is said that when Shengtian fought with South Vietnam before, they were all in the poisonous miasma forest, so no one knows what the specific situation is, and those who are lucky enough to come out alive are also secretive. So everyone thinks it's no different from an ordinary war, but how did Hua Xiyan know?
Hua Xiyan knew what Wang Qi was thinking, but obviously didn't intend to explain, and continued: "When the time comes, if Wen Chun lowers the price of horses, the third brother will start." If he wants to transfer it elsewhere, the third brother will raise the price of Caoyun. ”
"The Wen family also has luck, how do you know that he will definitely choose my Wang family's luck?"
Hua Xiyan hooked his lips and smiled, and said in an extremely affirmative tone: "He will definitely choose Wang Jiacaoyun." ”
"If the money was transported before, it was for the Wen family's own business, and others were understandable. But transporting horses is obviously to make war money, do you think the emperor will allow him to do this? Therefore, he will never use the Wen family's own luck, and some small families are too unsafe, so he will definitely choose the Wang family's luck, even if something happens, it will be directly planted on the Wang family. ”
Hua Xiyan knows Wen Chun's temperament too well, judging from the previous few times, they have never given up on planting Hua Xiyan, and this is such a good opportunity, they naturally have to make good use of it.
Wang Qi thought for a moment and understood what Hua Xiyan meant: "As soon as Qianzhuang is passed, the loss is very great, so we naturally want to camp on Caoyun, and what the Wen family and we have to do must be a big business, so we naturally have to protect those horses, and arrive in South Vietnam safely and unknowingly, so as to make a fortune." ”
Hua Xiyan nodded: "That's it." ”
"In this way, it seems that selling rice and grain and this luck can indeed return a lot of money." Wen Chun thought about it and said again, "Even if the horses are sold at a low price, the loss of the Wen family is very small, how can it be said that it is a heavy blow?" ”
Hua Xiyan had a shallow smile on his lips, and when he turned his head, he just saw the morning sun shining in from the window facing east, adding a lot of warmth to the whole room. And the shallow sunlight reflected on Huaxi Yan's face, plated with a shallow layer of melt light. It's obviously a warm color, but it adds a bit of meaning to her whole smile.
"The people's money is all used for business, who will deposit it in Wen's bank? In this case, the money that the Wen family transported over is useless. Hua Xiyan looked at the golden light outside the window, and felt that the color was so similar to bright yellow, so close that it was a bright and dazzling color, which pierced people's eyes.
What does it matter if the money is useless and can be shipped back, or it can be put directly into the bank?
Wang Qizheng was thinking like this, and suddenly heard Hua Xiyan sigh lowly: "Behind the glory, what is it?" ”
Behind the glory? Wang Qi condensed his eyebrows and pondered, and when the calcium carbide fire light saw an idea shoot out, Wang Qi instantly understood the meaning of Huaxi Yan.
When war breaks out, the most important thing is military strength, followed by financial resources. The south is very far away from the capital, and it will be really troublesome if you transport the military salary. Since the Wen family had already transported so many silver taels to the past, and it was useless, why didn't they serve the country and donate it to the country in case of war? Even if the Wen family wants to shirk it, I am afraid it will not work. The bad thing is that they took on the title of "Imperial Merchant", how much benefit and glory this title brought to them at the beginning, then this time, how much silver taels and property they had to pay.
Although in the south, the voice of the Wang family is also very prosperous, but the people have closed more than ten money houses and lost so many silver taels, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that it is impossible for the emperor to make matters worse for the Wang family, so how many silver taels are needed for the war are naturally all counted on the Wen family.
The most important thing needed for the war is nothing more than food and cloth, so in the end, the Wen family's money will still flow into the hands of the Wang family.
The war expenditure is definitely not a small number, even if it is Taiyuan Wen's, I am afraid that it has to be weighed.
"What a plan! If we use it well, we can probably make up for the silver taels we lost! Wang Qilang laughed, "After the people have made money, they will naturally have to save money again, I will open the money again, and the interest will be extremely high, the Wen family has been hit hard and can no longer do this, and the last one to close the door is afraid that it will be the Wen family's shop." ”
"Exactly." Hua Xiyan knew that Wang Qi was extremely smart, and he was not surprised that he could guess his last move.
What she wants the Wen family to lose is naturally not just as simple as silver taels.
"Interlocking, good scheme, good scheme!" Wang Qi seemed to be very happy in his heart, laughed loudly, and the appearance of the Wen family who had suffered a dumb loss but couldn't say it appeared in front of him.
"Naturally, we have to do a little bit of drama, after the money bank falls, where will we be embarrassed, and what kind of situation will we show in business. And after the news of the lack of horses in the south reached the Wen family, how to deal with him, the third brother must be able to do very well. I just want to emphasize one point, the horses used by the Wen family in our Cao Yun must be transported safely, and there must be no mistakes. ”
Hua Xiyan told Wang Qi seriously. If it is known that it is the Wang family, it may cause some unnecessary trouble. And that horse, she still wants.
Wang Qi nodded, signaling that he understood. The sadness on his face has dissipated and is invisible, replaced by a high spirit, and even after a while, he can no longer sit still, and hurriedly goes down to arrange.
Hua Xiyan also knew that this matter was as early as possible, so he didn't say anything.
I didn't have a lot of things in the morning, but now I feel a little hungry when I look at the table full of refreshments. Hua Xiyan picked up a piece of almond crisp and ate it slowly, turned his head inadvertently, and looked at Yun Qi staring at him motionlessly.
"How?" Hua Xiyan raised his eyebrows, picked up another piece and handed it to Yun Qi.
Yun Qi didn't stretch out his hand to take it, but directly stretched his neck and ate the bite in Hua Xiyan's hand that was bitten off by her, and even licked the tip of his tongue lightly on Hua Xiyan's fingertips, and Hua Xiyan felt a trembling touch from his fingers to the bottom of his heart.
Looking at Hua Xiyan's somewhat blushing little face, Yun Qi's interest seemed to be very good: "I'm thinking, you are so smart, we won't starve to death in the future." ”
Hearing this, Hua Xiyan also smiled, and couldn't help but joke: "Don't tell me that your Yun Gongzi doesn't even have the money to marry a daughter-in-law?" ”
"I can still get the money to marry you. Just to marry you, I will have to scatter all my family wealth, and even have to borrow debts, after marrying you, we may be going to drink the northwest wind. ”
"You Yun Gongzi are not picky, so naturally I don't care. The northwest wind is the northwest wind. Hua Xiyan waved her hand indifferently, anyway, she hadn't drunk it in her previous life.
Yun Qi also smiled, as if he was extremely satisfied with Hua Xiyan's empathy, so he took the plate on the side, took something out of it and handed it to Hua Xiyan's lips.
Hua Xiyan learned from his appearance just now and licked his smooth fingertips gently and softly with his tongue.
Yun Qi's eyes deepened, and he was about to say something, but Ziyi knocked on the door outside, and said in a low voice: "Childe, the golden sword general in the post house is gone!" ”
