Chapter 33: The Suppression of Bandits Begins
When the first rays of morning sunlight shine on the land through the mottled ancient city walls, the loud rooster crow resounds throughout the county, symbolizing the arrival of a new day.
Li Weigong had already practiced martial arts in the courtyard at this time, even if it was cold and summer, he practiced diligently, and in the past 20 years, he has never slackened at all.
Because Li Weigong knows that if he wants to go far-reaching on the road of Jinyiwei, then his martial arts are not advanced enough.
Although there are no clear requirements for martial arts in the official system, there are always some conformist rules in the officialdom, and if martial arts are not enough, the high position of this brocade guard will never fall on him.
And just when Li Weigong was practicing martial arts, a Jinyi guard walked into the courtyard and came to Li Weigong's side, saying:
"My lord, Master Li Yucheng has arrived."
Li Weigong slowly put away the Yanling knife, and after exhaling a breath, he squinted and said: "It is said that the Xiangjun is lazy and procrastinating, I don't think it's slow, let's go, we should also see what kind of business this Jinyi Wei Qincha is doing." ”
Li Weigong had long wanted to know what kind of business Fang Xiu was doing, after all, he watched his actions and people.
If you want to see how capable this Jinyi Wei Qincha is, this is the best opportunity.
………
In Fang City, Mianchi County, at this time, Li Yucheng was commanding the box army to unload the goods, Li Weigong saw Li Yucheng's figure and hurriedly stepped forward and said:
"I thought that Yucheng would be able to reach it at least at noon, and I didn't want Yucheng to lead the troops so quickly, but I was lazy."
"It's okay, it's okay, it stands to reason that Kunshan to Mianchi Town should have arrived at noon, but I just rushed ahead of time, it's not your fault."
Li Yucheng waved his hand, and then pointed to the goods and said: "It's just that this goods, you still have to receive it as soon as possible, and then notify the Shu Merchants Chamber of Commerce to inspect the goods." ”
"I don't know what Lord Qincha's business is, but I hope Yucheng will clarify it with me." Li Weigong glanced at the goods, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"As it should be, let's talk about today's business with Shu merchants."
Li Yucheng nodded, pointed to the unloaded cloth, and said:
"Here are the finest cloths, a hundred silks, ten silks, a thousand in all; fine cloth, 1,000 silk, 5 per silk, a total of 5,000 silk; medium cloth, 5,000 silk, consistently one silk, a total of 5,000 guan; Inferior cloth, 10,000 silk, 1 silk 300 wen, a total of 3,000 yuan.
A total of 14,000 pieces of goods were all traded with Shu merchants this time.
According to the agreement, the Shu Chamber of Commerce will pick up the goods after the nineth, when the money and goods are cleared, there is no credit, all transactions are settled in gold, if there is a shortage, it can also be settled in the land of Cuishan.
According to the meaning of the lord on the mountain, you can ask the owner of the Shu Merchant Chamber of Commerce to inspect the goods today, and the payment can be pressed after nine days, of course, if the Shu merchant wants to pick up the goods in advance, it is also possible. ”
Li Weigong looked at the unloaded cloth and couldn't help but be shocked, this year, a Yin Shi family could almost save six to ten yuan a year, and just the first transaction between the Shu Merchants Chamber of Commerce and Jin Yiwei was equivalent to the money saved by 1,500 Yin Shi families in a year.
It seems that what this adult said about 100,000 guan a year and him is definitely not an empty word, but I don't know how much this lord of Jinyiwei can earn with this 14,000 guan.
"And what about this business?" Li Weigong paused.
"In addition to this business, my lord has asked you to be responsible for connecting with all the chambers of commerce that trade with him from now on, this is the list he asked me to give you, this is the cloth list of Shu merchants, this is the porcelain business of Zhejiang merchants, this is the paper and printing business of Jiangnan merchants, this is the vinegar and soy sauce business of Ji merchants, and this is the wine business of Jin merchants."
Li Yucheng said and took out a colorful book from his arms, handed it to Li Weigong, and then pointed to another batch of goods in the distance:
"In addition, my lord also asked me to bring you the corresponding samples, you can also take a look."
Li Weigong took the book and looked at it first, the texture of this book can be said to be the best he has ever seen, generally only the paper in the collection of books can be compared to this kind of paper, and even slightly inferior, this Lord Jinyiwei looks extremely extraordinary.
After looking at the book, Li Weigong opened the book and compared the contents and samples inside, and then the look of surprise in his eyes became more and more intense.
In the end, Li Weigong suddenly closed the book, looked at Li Yucheng, and said:
"Sir, isn't there really a mistake in the price of his book? Is this price really profitable? ”
"Adults can naturally earn money by doing this, but as for why they can earn it, I don't understand." Li Yucheng replied honestly.
"If that's the case, then your lord is going to do a splashing business, and your lord has already talked with various merchants?" Li Weigong tried to suppress his excited tone.
With his gaze, he could naturally see that if he could still make a profit by selling it at the above price, then no chamber of commerce in the world could refuse that adult's business.
This kind of business represents a great ability, and Li Weigong felt for the first time that he was underestimating that adult.
"The adult has already talked with the Jin merchants, Ji merchants, Shu merchants, Jiangnan merchants, and Zhejiang merchants, but at present, I have only seen the principal of the Shu merchants, but the adults mean that there is no need to talk about it in the future, if you are willing to place an order directly, the Shu merchants have verified our credit, so we don't need to lower our value next, it's time for that group of people to beg us." Li Yucheng repeated what Fang Xiu had told him.
Hearing this, Li Weigong took a deep breath again, tried to calm his mood and said, "I understand, just leave it to me next." ”
After speaking, Li Weigong looked at the Jinyi guard beside him and ordered: "Immediately let someone go and notify the young owner of the Shu Chamber of Commerce, tell him that the goods he wants have arrived, and let all the chambers of commerce know about this business." ”
"Yes!"
………
“……… Less for the gentlemen, very fond of prosperity, good house, good beauty, good children, good fresh clothes, good food, good horses, good lanterns, good fireworks, good pear orchards, good advocacy, good antiques, good flowers and birds, and tea and orange abuse, books and poems, half a lifetime of hard work, all become dreams.
By fifty, the country was ruined and the family was destroyed, and he avoided the mountain dwelling. The survivors, broken beds, broken pianos, and broken books, lack of inkstone. The cloth is sparse and often broken. Looking back on 20 years ago, it was like a lifetime away. ”
At the residence of the Shu Chamber of Commerce, Qian Kun was listening to the sound of the piano and looking at the books in his hand at this time.
Among the books is an epitaph written by a rich and noble son, and the characters no longer know the age, but when he read this, Qian Kun was deeply touched.
He has already lived the life of a young brocade cloth, and it is even better than what is described in the book.
As for the second half of his life, if the Chamber of Commerce fights for power, he will be defeated, and the second half of his life written in the book may be the second half of his life, and the country may not be broken, but the death of the family may be overnight.
Thinking of this, Qian Kun couldn't help but be more eager to know if his business could be successful.
If that Lord Jinyi Wei can really take out the cloth, then it means that the overall situation has been decided in the internal struggle of the Chamber of Commerce.
And at this moment when Qian Kun was stunned, the steward Old Man Li walked in quickly, came to Qian Kun's ear and said:
"Young master, the goods have arrived."
Just such a sentence, Qian Kun's whole person immediately stood up and said to the beautiful maid who played the piano: "Don't play the piano, go down." ”
The beautiful maid who played the piano immediately stopped, and left with the guqin, and after the slaves and maids went down, Qian Kun looked at the steward Li and said, "It's really here?" ”
"Jin Yiwei has already asked us to come over to inspect the goods." Old man Li replied.
"So what are you waiting for?"
Qian Kun turned around and walked outside, but at this time, Old Man Li stopped Qian Kun and said:
"People from other chambers of commerce are here, saying that they want to see you, and they want to discuss with you face-to-face, if you don't guess wrong, it should be related to Jinyiwei's business, do you remember the previous news, Jinyiwei not only met with one of our chambers of commerce, they should have come to find out the news."
"How did the news get out?"
After Qian Kun spoke, he paused and said: "Also, since that person wants to do business with these chambers of commerce, then my business with him is a kind of propaganda in itself, so let's go see these merchants, you go to inspect the goods for me, you have to inspect the goods well, whether I can suppress the voice of the chamber of commerce in one fell swoop depends on this time." ”
Old man Li nodded when he heard this, and said cautiously: "Yes!" ”
………
On the lobby of the Shu Chamber of Commerce, when Qian Kun came here, the lobby was already full, he calmly walked up to the lobby, sat on the main seat, and said unhurriedly:
"What do you want to talk about when you come to me, with such fanfare?"
When the Wang steward of the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce heard this, he took the lead in speaking: "Qian Shaodong, we don't say secret words, we just want to know what business you talked about with the Lord Jinyiwei, but you really reached a deal?" ”
"I knew you were going to ask this, and I can answer you that question, but you answer my question first."
Qian Kun raised his head and looked at the people present: "What business did that person talk about with you?" ”
There was a moment of silence in the lobby, and in the end, it was the king of Jiangnan businessmen who took the lead in speaking: "What we are talking about in Jiangnan is paper and printing business, and the Jinyiwei will reduce the selling price to almost half of my cost, we have no way to refuse this business, and everyone present should be about the same." ”
The director of the Zhejiang Chamber of Commerce said: "Our Zhejiang businessmen are talking about the porcelain business, which is basically the same as what the superior said, and he offered a price that we have no way to refuse." ”
When the director of the Ji Chamber of Commerce heard this, there was a hint of surprise in his eyes and said: "Ji Shang is a vinegar and soy sauce business, and the price cannot be refused. ”
"Jin Shang is a wine business, as for why, obviously I don't need to say." The head of the Jin Chamber of Commerce spread his hands.
The more Qian Kun heard this, the more frightened he became, from cloth to wine to paper to vinegar and soy sauce, half of the world's business was basically here.
After everyone finished speaking, Qian Kun took a deep breath and said: "I believe what he said now, his business can't be eaten even if Shu merchants, Jin merchants, Jiangnan merchants, Zhejiang merchants, and Hebei merchants join forces." ”
"Qian Shaodong's family hasn't answered our question yet?" Jiangnan Shangwang stewardship.
Qian Kun waved his hand when he heard this: "Shu Shang is a cloth business, I did reach a deal, it was negotiated yesterday, and now Steward Li is inspecting the goods, if you don't have any opinions, you can wait for the result here with me, if it happens, then it means that the world's business will change because of me." ”
………
On the top of the mountain, under the warlock tower, the TOP0 team and the big muscle bully team have already gathered, ready to start heading towards the bandit camp in the mountain.
Deng Xian and the others explored the county yamen yesterday and the results were not good, except for learning the faces of a few fugitives, they got almost nothing, and even almost got arrested, and finally Deng Xian and the others decided to complete the ring running task first.
The donkeys of the production team left behind in the mountains have completed training on those present, and both teams have now learned how to throw grenades, how to use individual bazookas, and have mastered submachine guns and AK47s.
"In order to play this game, I have learned how to make a bow and crossbow with my bare hands, how to press an AK with one hand, how to quickly disassemble a submachine gun, how to throw grenades effectively, and even how to fire a single rocket projectile, and I always feel as if I am not far from it." ”
"It's really not far from going in, I feel that it's only wood to iron, glue to welding, you can communicate with Spicy Tiao Ju in this regard." Dongcheng Azu echoed on the side.
Hearing this, Spicy Strip glanced at the two living treasures, did not speak, just checked the AK47 in his hand, as for the bow and crossbow have been sold to other squads, with real firearms, the role of the bow and crossbow is not so important.
This time, the team has almost an order of magnitude more equipment than the previous team, with guns on hand and even a map-cannon type weapon like a bazooka.
If you meet the fierce overlord-like guy from last time again, two packs of spicy strips are confident that they can be beaten into a sieve.
What punches fast within seven steps, and the gun is fast outside seven steps, whether it is close or long, the gun is fast and accurate.
If you really can't do it, you can paste your face with a bazooka.
"Are you all ready?" The two packets of spicy strips turned their heads to look at Deng Xiandao.
Deng Xian checked the equipment and said, "It's ready." ”
This time, they even brought the living bandit Zhang Yong, just to be able to clear all the bandits with certainty, but Zhang Yong was not in a good state at this time, and his whole face was extremely pale at this time.
This is mainly due to the fact that he has not been treated for his wounds since he was brought back, but has only bandaged him briefly.
Players all felt that seriously injured NPCs would not die if they were not treated, and Zhang Yong did not dare to speak, so no one cared about him, so that Zhang Yong now felt that this group of people wanted to survive him.
"Now that you're ready, let's go!" The two packets of spicy strips waved suddenly.
In the next second, everyone rushed into the distance, shouting various slogans as they went.
"Rush!"
"Ulla!"
"For the great Warlock!"
"To revive the Warlock civilization!"
Zhang Yong was numb when he saw this scene, and he only felt that this was a group of crazy people.
