Since the chaos in Biluoling and the news of the Southern Expedition, the merchants of the entire Yunqin have also been paying extremely nervous attention to the changing situation of the entire Yunqin.

The fall of a single artemisia grass on the wall of the imperial city of Zhongzhou may crush a century-old trading house.

This is the relationship between the situation and the business.

In a quiet room, an elegant middle-aged man with a long beard is talking to a wealthy old man in a thin leather jacket.

These two people are extremely famous in the entire Yunqin, the elegant middle-aged man with a long beard is Sheng Manying, the owner of Dasheng Gaoqian Village, and the rich old man is Mu Zongli, the big shopkeeper of Dasheng Gaoqian Village.

Dasheng Gao Qian Zhuang is one of the three major money villages in the Yunqin Empire, and it is rich enough to rival the country!

Although the name Sheng Manying was a bit too vulgar in the eyes of some scribes, he was recognized as the best merchant of all the Yunqin firms, and his experience so far can be described as legendary.

At the age of sixteen, his father, the treasurer of the Dasheng Gao Qian Village, Sheng Dafa, died of a serious illness, and he took over at the age of sixteen.

What people didn't expect was that Dasheng Gao in his hands, it was more rapid than in his father's hands, especially at the age of thirty-two, after 16 years in charge of Dasheng Gao, the fire in Dayuan City, Sanyin Province, nearly one-third of the merchants were burned, and the bills in their hands turned into ashes, but Dasheng Gao only relied on the oral representations of these merchants, and still cashed in silver one by one, this move came out, causing a sensation in Yunqin, everyone said that Dashenggao's reputation was not bad, and then it was just a few years, Dashenggao became one of the three major money houses in Yunqin, and Shengmanyin was also called the god of wealth in Shanyin by Yunqin merchants。

The success of a person like Sheng Manying naturally does not depend on the luck of the fire, but on his wisdom, hard work, his keen insight and the integrity of a businessman, as well as the way of employing people.

Da Dexiang can be said to be the most rapidly rising business name in Yunqin in recent years, and it is naturally impossible for a character like Sheng Manying not to pay some attention to this also legendary business.

Today, after receiving some positive news from the imperial city, and discussing some countermeasures to deal with the next severe situation, Sheng Manying asked about the recent movements of Dadexiang.

In his opinion, whether it is adding color and spice to ordinary soap cream, and then making molds to make exquisite patterns and even poems on the soap cream, or directly monopolizing the origin of the next golden silk pomelo tea, making it impossible to compete at all, all show the high wisdom of Da Dexiang. The measures taken by such a firm in the face of the turbulent situation at this moment are certainly worth studying and even learning from.

In the past few days, Dadexiang bought more than a dozen rice banks in Qixia Province, and spent about the same amount of money as the acquisition of Datong business. In the face of Sheng Manying's inquiry, Mu Zongli, the big shopkeeper of Dasheng Gaoqian Village, seemed to be unable to hold back the curiosity and confession in his heart**, with a puzzled look on his face, and immediately responded.

"It's such a big deal again?"

Sheng Manying's brows suddenly furrowed deeply, stroked his long beard, and after a moment of silence, he continued: "This can already supply thirty percent of the rice grain in Qixia Province... I remember that in order to monopolize the business of golden silk pomelo tea, Da Dexiang bought land and signed long-term contracts with those growers in the producing area, and signed most of the silver taels, which has now been paid off?"

Mu Zongli seemed to be aware of the doubts in the owner's heart, shook his head with a wry smile, and said, "I am still walking according to the agreement, and I have not repaid the arrears in advance." ”

After a slight pause, the big shopkeeper of Da Shenggao continued: "And I have been dealing with Da Dexiang according to the intention of the owner before, if you want to give credit, Da Dexiang will definitely give priority to us... But according to my understanding, Da Dexiang used his own silver taels, and did not borrow a tael of silver from outside money banks and commercial houses at all. ”

Sheng Manying shook his head: "To do such a hasty thing... With the circulation of Dadexiang's silver, the acquisition of Datong is close to the limit, and at this moment there is such a big deal, the circulation of silver must have reached a very dangerous point... As long as there is something wrong with one business, it will not be able to fill the hole, and I don't know how far it will collapse. ”

Mu Zongli nodded and said, "Emerging businesses generally have not suffered hardships, and they will make the mistake of expanding too quickly, and I have made careful calculations. As long as the rice and noodle business is not done well, the silver taels in circulation of Dadexiang will not be able to keep up, and how to give it up at that time will be extremely painful. ”

"It's a good idea, it's just too urgent. Sheng Manying sighed and said: "The Southern Expedition is a foregone conclusion, prepare for autumn and winter, and the war will start in the spring of next year." Conscription, grain hoarding, rice and grain business will be in demand in the future, but in the long run, the labor force will decrease, and the grain production will decrease, unless we start to spend a lot of silver to build a granary and hoard some grain now, but Da Dexiang has no extra silver to do such a thing, so he can only do business like others in all directions, and the rest of the rice shops, will it be easy for such an outsider to rob the business? If you want to rely on business alone to make a way out... It's just hard to get to the top. ”

"I also find it difficult to understand. ”

Mu Zongli also frowned and said regretfully: "Every important thing that Da Dexiang did before was extremely beautiful, and it stands to reason that these shopkeepers of Da Dexiang should be extremely smart and stable people, how could they make such a big mistake." Da Dexiang's soap paste and golden silk honey pomelo tea have become famous things, even if you are in a hurry to do other business, eager to expand, and make some rouge gouache are very easy to penetrate into the hearts of the people, and it is very easy to make a big profit. How did you think of starting a rice noodle business that doesn't have any advantages at all?"

"I heard someone say that Dadexiang has purchased a large amount of flower land in Qiantang Province, and he should either want to make some rouge gouache or do some flower and water business. Sheng Manying was a little annoyed and said: "The result is just for the Southern Expedition, so I took such a stinky move, and I don't know if this great Dexiang will be defeated." ”

......

When the proprietor of Dasheng Gaoqian Village couldn't help but hate because of the stinky move of the optimistic trading house, in the small courtyard room planted with chrysanthemums and orchids, Nangong Weiyang opened his eyes, and angrily slashed a small mahogany stool in front of him into a puddle of sawdust dust.

In this place surrounded by mountains and noisy every day, but where he could stay quietly, Lin Xi began to meditate day and night again.

Nangong Weiyang also admired Lin Xi's ability to meditate continuously for many days in a row, so she also tried to meditate with Lin Xi without interruption.

But she didn't last for seven days, and she already felt so upset that it was difficult for her to calm down and practice.

With her own cultivation and will, Lin Xi can do it, but she can't... So she was very angry and unconvinced, and wanted to ask Lin Xi what the reason was.

At this moment, she heard Chen Feirong's footsteps, and she knew that Chen Feirong must have something to find Lin Xi, so she calmed her face, arrived at the door in one step, pushed the door open, and followed behind Chen Feirong.

......

Lin Xi's cultivation had reached the peak of the Great Soul Master.

After receiving Gu Xinyin's inheritance, his perception has become more and more acute.

There is only one step left between the peak of the Great Soul Master and the cultivation of the national scholar, but this step itself is a big threshold, and it takes a long time to continue meditation and practice, and with the decrease and disappearance of the medicinal power in his body, even if he cultivates day and night, this step is still very long in his perception, but after returning to the world of ordinary people who are not cultivators, and after figuring out some things, his mood has become more calm.

After exhaling a breath of turbidity, he looked at Chen Feirong and Nangong Weiyang, who gently pushed the door and walked in, and didn't say anything, just nodded slowly.

"Your Excellency, everything you have told you has been done. ”

Chen Feirong saluted Lin Xiyingying, "Qin Zhiyan said that there are still no problems with the roads in that booklet, but I have some questions that I don't know, and I want to ask my lord." ”

Lin Xi opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, Nangong Weiyang had already interjected: "I also have questions to ask." ”

Lin Xi was slightly stunned.

Nangong Weiyang had already glanced at Chen Feirong beside him, and said, "But you can wait for you to finish asking first." ”

Chen Feirong couldn't help but smile, these days, she also knows a little about Nangong Weiyang's temperament, and she only thinks that Nangong Weiyang is very interesting, but after smiling, the look on her face became serious and respectful, and she didn't say any nonsense, and asked the teacher to ask for advice in general: "Why do adults want to spend a lot of effort to do a rice and noodle business?"

Lin Xi raised his head slightly, looked at the autumn colors outside the window greedily, and replied seriously and softly: "The business I asked Da Dexiang to do before, no matter how well it is done, it is a small fight after all, and what can really control the lifeblood of this world is nothing more than the four words of clothing, food, housing and transportation." ”

Just this sentence, Chen Feirong's heart trembled slightly, and her expression naturally became more and more respectful and respectful.

"Soap, cream, spices, rouge and gouache, these are not essential things, without which people can still live. But there are some things that you can't live without them... I have thought about many things carefully, but for example, salt, which is officially controlled by Yunqin and cannot be smuggled. But rice and grain are not limited to trading. ”

"Since the founding of Yunqin, the national strength has been considered to be extremely prosperous, but I didn't ask you to do statistics before... Although they can all be fed, at least forty percent of them are either coarse grains, or their lives are still very poor, and they have to sacrifice some other aspects in order to be fed, and sometimes they even owe some other silver taels on credit. Most of these people are laborers and tenants. Lin Xi looked at Chen Feirong, and then said: "I can catch these forty percent of people... can allow these people to eat more securely, and Dadexiang's rice and noodle business will not worry about making a lot of money. ”

Chen Feirong naturally knew that even the military strength of this country was about money and grain in the final analysis, and silver taels, in the final analysis, were also to satisfy the grain and grass first, but her incomprehension and Sheng Manying were the same, she frowned slightly, and asked: "My lord... But to compete with other firms, there is no trickery, only business. ”

Hearing Chen Feirong's words, Lin Xi shook his head slightly and sighed lightly in his heart.

People in this world can't even understand what a fully cooked steak is... How could he possibly know how a person called the "God of Management" made a fortune, and how could he know that Yun Qin was at least four adults and the situation of the customers that this person called the "God of Management" faced back then was completely similar. Moreover, Yun Qin people are simpler and less picky than the customers he faced back then.

People in this world don't know which road is successful, they haven't seen the road of success, even the wisest person just carries a lantern in the dark night, and sees farther than ordinary people, but he knows which road is successful, he just needs to follow this road of success.

In the most unscrupulous thing, in the same thing than business... How can a person in this world compare with him, who is equivalent to thousands of years of business experience... Who in this world knows how to run better than him?

"What I'm going to compare is management. ”

Lin Xi handed a few pages of written paper to Chen Feirong and said, "You can refer to the next thing and do it." ”

Nangong Weiyang was a little absorbed when he heard this, and when he heard Lin Xi's words, he immediately frowned slightly, and wanted to take the page over and take a look at it first.

Chen Feirong controlled her mood of wanting to see it immediately, nodded, and continued to ask: "The other things that my lord asked me to check are all related to the black market smuggling business in the east... Do you want to take over the underground black market business of this corrupt official? From what I know about you, you definitely don't want Yun Qin's soldiers to die under what they smuggled. So I have a hard time understanding what adults are trying to do with us putting so much effort into it. ”
