The money in her private treasury is best known to Tinghe.

Zhao Hanzhang immediately went back to ask Tinghe.

As soon as Tinghe heard this, he reported a huge number to her, and seeing that there was not much expression on her face, he whispered: "There are still three caravans that have not been accounted for, among which Wu Erlang's caravan has the highest value, and it was recorded last year with 24.68 million yuan. ”

Zhao Hanzhang was speechless, "Why is it so profitable?" ”

Listen to Hedao: "Lang Jun divided the route for them, a caravan is responsible for the Western Regions, a caravan is responsible for the south, they are not allowed to cross the border again, and the goods brought back are distributed in Luoyang, which shortens their time. ”

"But since the year before last, because the girl and Xiliang had a good relationship, Lang Jun asked Wu Erlang to only be in charge of the caravan north of Xiliang, and he asked Wu Erlang to sell furs, medicinal materials, cattle and sheep from Xiliang and other places, and also asked Wu Erlang to bring a lot of people over and opened a paper mill and wool mill at the end of Xiliang."

"Xiliang admires the things of the Central Plains very much, the paper is very good, and even the books he brought over are also very good, and the threads and blankets woven from the wool mill are very good in Xiliang, Qianghu and Xianbei, even in Chang'an, but unfortunately the people here in Luoyang don't like it very much, so they have not been sold."

Tinghe explained: "Last year, Wu Erlang met a merchant from the Western Regions from the Dayue clan and bought a lot of gems and spices, and he got a lot of money just for those gems and spices. ”

Zhao Hanzhang: "I know this, he sent a box of gems and a box of spices when I got married last year. ”

Then she kept a few, and gave the rest to Wang, which she rarely could use.

Tinghe smiled and said: "That's the best batch, those who go out are all for the girl to pick the rest, this year Wu Erlang has not come back for a long time to return the account, it should be to go to the Dayue clan, if he can completely open the line in the Western Regions, the money will not be a problem in the future." ”

Zhao Hanzhang lowered his eyes and said: "Copper coins are not easy to carry, so you still have to find silver and gold mines." ”

Tinghe also nodded, "Wu Erlang also said that money is not easy to carry, and there is a lot of silver in Xiliang, so he often uses glass, tea and other things to exchange for gold and silver over there." ”

Zhao Hanzhang's heart is hot, her private treasury has so much money, this battle can be fought completely.

She asked Tinghe, "Do you know how much money Tinghan has there?" ”

Tinghe shook his head, "I can only ask Fu An about this." ”

After a pause, she whispered: "But it should be a lot, I heard Fu An say that Lang Jun has two caravans in his hands that are extremely profitable, and the Seventh Master likes to pull Lang Jun to do business the most, and many workshops have Lang Jun's shares, so they also make a lot of money." ”

Zhao Hanzhang understood, relieved, she asked Tinghe with a smile, "Do you have any difficulties in managing these?" ”

Tinghe: "It's just that the manpower is not enough, Cheng Bo and Zhao Tong are both old, and they have not had enough energy in the past two years, and many things have been pushed to me." ”

So now Zhao Hanzhang listens to the rain and Zhao Ya around him, Zhao Ya goes out, listens to the rain at home, and listens to the lotus only occasionally follows.

Zhao Hanzhang thought for a while and said: "If you have time, you can go to the school for a walk, or you can look outside, like the weaving workshop and the embroidery workshop, use more girls, to find assertive, capable and loyal girls, go back and promote, each workshop has its own steward, tell them to take care of their own affairs, you can manage them well, you can also bring two people around you to help, and let them exercise." ”

Listen to the charge.

Zhao Hanzhang thought about the various stewards who made money for her, and said: "Mention Hu Zhi to Luoyang, I may need a lot of money in the next year, let him give you a shot." ”

Listen to the lotus and write it down.

Zhao Hanzhang said: "Let the stewards of the workshops in various places start to buy and hoard grain, and hoard it in the warehouses of their respective workshops, and each workshop needs to fill a warehouse, but it is not allowed to raise prices." ”

"If this batch of grain is stored, I will be useful, let them come quietly, without fanfare, and without leaking the news."

It is impossible not to leak the news, so many places, so many people buy so much food at the same time, and they are all Zhao Hanzhang's industry, how can it not be eye-catching?

At this time, the annual tax has just been paid, and it is the gap between the peasants who have begun to count the year's harvest and sell the surplus grain, so the grain price is much lower than in the past year.

No, it's a lot lower.

Prior to this, food shortages, locust plagues, wars, and various natural and man-made disasters kept food prices high.

This year's bumper harvest, Zhao Hanzhang has reduced a lot of taxes, and there will be more grain in the market at once, and grain prices will naturally fall.

The price of grain shops has fallen, and the grain merchants and peasants will only buy lower, and many people have sold grain one after another, but most of the people who have been starved are much more cautious and are unwilling to sell grain.

Seeing this, the grain merchants began to hook up with some gentry, buying their grain at a slightly higher price than the market price, and at the same time negotiating with them to release lower grain prices.

Obviously, they didn't receive much grain when they went to the countryside, but the grain price given by the grain merchants was to press down for three days and three days, and each time they didn't drop much, they pressed down a few pennies per stone, and on average, a pound would drop a few cents, but for the common people, these cents were enough for them to feel heartache.

In addition, the gentry took the lead in selling grain, saying, "This year's harvest will make the grain worthless, and if you don't sell it now, it will only get lower and lower in the future." ”

Someone said stiffly: "It despises itself, and I won't sell it anyway." ”

"If you have surplus food at home, what do you do if you don't sell it and keep it? I think next year will still be a bumper harvest year, and it will be even less valuable to keep it for old grain," said the gentry: "And if you don't sell grain, how can you have the money to repair houses, buy farm tools, and exchange seeds?" Do you want to marry a daughter-in-law? I have to buy some pots and pans to get by, and after a busy year, I always have to buy some meat to eat, right? ”

If you want to trade, you have to use money, and where does the money come from in the countryside?

Naturally, it is selling agricultural products.

Moreover, people are inevitably born, old, sick and die, they need money to see a doctor, they need to buy all kinds of things when a child is born, and they also need money, and they still have to spend money when they die.

So some people began to panic, watching the food prices getting lower and lower day by day, panic, and began to sell out

Soon, a county magistrate noticed this unusual scene, and remembered that the "case of collusion between the gentry, officials, merchants, and gentry in the school" mentioned in the school, he immediately took action to curb it, but he had just made an appointment with a few gentry and merchants, and before he could convince them, some people began to go to the countryside to collect a large amount of grain.

In order to receive grain from the grain merchants, the visitors also raised the price of grain, which was the same as the price of grain sold in the grain store.

See you tomorrow
