Chapter 820: Continue wrestling
Half a month has passed, and the Zheng family's several warehouses are all full of medicinal materials, as well as all kinds of pills.
These things are very sought-after on the Terran side.
During this time, the Zheng trading company mastered more than seventy percent of the medicinal materials and pills business, before they intervened, the Mei trading company had always shipped goods once every five days, and now it has been half a month, and they haven't even collected a batch of goods.
This situation directly led to the fact that most of the cargo compartments were empty when the Terran shuttle returned home.
Although they have increased their purchase of ore, it is far from tripling or even doubling as advertised, because it is unlikely that much more production can be increased in a short period of time.
Zheng Zirong had just inspected the warehouse and happily returned to the office, he was sure that the human race would not be able to hold on, and Ye Yunyang would not be able to hold it either.
The bookkeeper hurriedly walked in and said, "Shopkeeper, it's not good!"
"What's wrong, will you speak?" Zheng Zirong said angrily: "This shopkeeper has just seen it, everything is normal, don't be alarmist, if it causes any adverse effects, I will ask you!"
The bookkeeper was startled, but he still stiffened his neck and said, "There is a very serious matter, even if you want to punish me, mine must tell the truth." ”
Zheng Zirong frowned, Mr. Ledger was personally selected by him, and he has always been more at ease with this person, is there really an accident?
"Say it. He said in a deep voice.
The bookkeeper took a deep breath and said, "There is not much money left on the books, only a few million taels left!"
"What?" Zheng Zirong's eyes widened: "How did you do it? Is there someone who fills his pockets, who is it, you tell me immediately, I will definitely not spare him, dare to touch my money, don't you want to live!"
The bookkeeper looked embarrassed and stopped talking.
Zheng Zirong said angrily: "Say it quickly!"
"Nobody spends money on their books. The bookkeeper said cautiously: "During this period of time, the acquisition that you personally presided over, several warehouses were piled up, and the money spent was naturally gone." ”
Zheng Zirong's face was relieved, and he said with a smile: "So that's the case, I'll just say, the Zheng family knows the rules, who dares to automatically automate the money in the account without my permission." It doesn't matter, it won't be long before we can ship, and when the time comes, we will not only be able to return to our original capital, but also make a lot of money, what do you have to worry about. ”
"But ......," said Mr. "This month happens to be a 10-year memorial event, and it costs a lot of money, and I am afraid that these millions of taels are not enough." Besides, we have played the banner of large-scale acquisitions, and people will come to ship every day, and the liquidity is running out, can we still collect it?"
Zheng Zirong didn't think about it and said: "Of course, if we stop the acquisition, it will definitely cause market turmoil, and all the efforts we have made before will be in vain." ”
"But where do we get so much money?" The bookkeeper was about to cry, he wanted to say that it was difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and there was no money for normal turnover, so what would she take?
Zheng Zirong must not have cared, and said: "The few hunting teams we sent out will come back soon, and when the time comes, we will sell the ore to the Lei family trading company, and the working capital will come back." As for the acquisition, we only need to make a slight adjustment, and in the future, we will only accept bulk goods, not large quantities, and there will be no change on the surface, and retail investors alone will be able to maintain the same market as before, understand?"
"The shopkeeper is clever. The bookkeeper gave a thumbs up, then turned away.
After receiving the praise, Zheng Zirong couldn't help but become complacent, and said to himself with a smile: "How big it is, I have also experienced strong winds and waves, of course, it is impossible to be stumped by such a trivial matter." ”
He decided to come forward to meet the shopkeepers of several major trading companies in the city, and join them to stock up on goods and carry them to the end with the human race.
That night, in the name of the Zheng trading company, he set up a banquet in the highest-grade restaurant in the city, and invited the heads of the four major families and the eight surnames.
The businessman puts profit first, and when he proposed the phrase that everyone has money to earn together, it was recognized by those present.
Everyone expressed their willingness to support the proposal of the Zheng Trading Company, and no matter how many medicinal herbs and pills appeared on the market, they would all be purchased and hoarded.
In addition, Zheng Zirong proposed to increase the price now, because the purchase price has increased by half percent, and the selling price must be increased by one and a half percent, as long as it persists for a period of time, this price will be accepted by people, and then become the so-called norm.
In this way, when the Terrans re-purchase, they can only accept such a price.
More than a dozen old foxes hit it off, saying that the price would increase from tomorrow, first by one percent, and then by half a percent after three days.
......
Alliance College, Ye Yunyang, as usual, came to the second floor of the library to read books.
After reading a few pages of a book, Lei Shaoyuan walked over and said, "Have you heard, the price of medicinal herbs and pills has risen." ”
Ye Yunyang nodded: "I heard about it a few days ago." ”
Lei Shaoyuan sat down, twisted his eyebrows and said: "Those profiteers are really ruthless, first they increased the price by 10%, everyone thought it was unreasonable, and thought that it would return to the original price in a few days, so they held back and didn't buy it." But three days later, it rose by half percent, and now everyone panicked, and hurriedly ran to buy it, for fear of raising the price again. ”
Ye Yunyang raised his head with a smile: "It's just a small trick, the public psychology is always to buy up and not buy down, and there is no shortage of business talents in major families, and they have long been thoroughly studied by them." ”
"But in this case, your side will suffer a big loss. Lei Shaoyuan said: "The price has risen by one and a half, and the supply of goods is all in their hands, the price is completely up to them, and when the Terrans start purchasing again, they will open their mouths." ”
Ye Yunyang closed the book and was silent.
After a long time, he asked, "The Council of Elders should intervene in this kind of matter, right?"
"It stands to reason that it should be. The old man said, but he quickly shook his head and said, "But don't forget, the Qian family is also involved, will Elder Qian, who is in charge of economic affairs, dismantle his family's platform?"
I have to admit that Zheng Zirong is old and spicy enough, pulling the four major families and the eight surnames to do the same thing together, tying everyone into a collective of interests, no one wants to stay out of the matter, and no one has a chance to contradict.
Ye Yunyang stood up and said, "Try it, you accompany me to see Elder Qian!"
The old man thought for a while, and said with some embarrassment: "Okay then, but the relationship between you and me on the surface is not good during this time, so I will only accompany you, and I will not help you speak." ”
"That's nature!" Ye Yunyang said with a smile.
During this time, the two deliberately showed that their friendship had broken down, in order to help Lei Shaoyuan deceive Elder Zhao's trust.
But no matter what, Ye Yunyang was single-handedly supported by Lei Shaoyuan, even if he fell out, there were still a lot of face-saving things to do, not to mention that they didn't completely turn their faces.
For example, in this matter now, Ye Yunyang is in trouble, and the only one who can ask for help is Lei Shaoyuan, and it seems logical that he will go to see Elder Qian with him.
On the contrary, if you don't go, it will arouse the suspicion of others, especially the delicate Elder Zhao.
But when he went, he was just making a gesture, as long as he didn't stand on Ye Yunyang's side too much, it would be regarded as a gesture.
Soon, the two of them came to Elder Qian's office.
Ye Yunyang got straight to the point: "Elder Qian, Zheng Zirong has united the major trading companies in the city, they are colluding to raise prices, you can't ignore this matter, and the Council of Elders can't ignore it." ”
Elder Qian glanced at him and said in an official tone: "Elder Ye is a little alarmist, the market price is determined by the market, this is a very reasonable thing, it has not violated a certain regulation, what do you want Elder Ben to do?"
"However, the price is not influenced by the market, but the decision is made after secret deliberation, and there is a world of difference between the two. Ye Yunyang argued.
Elder Qian smiled: "Elder Ben doesn't think there's anything wrong with this, medicinal herbs and pills are selling well, the market is in short supply, and the price increase is a very reasonable thing, and several major trading companies are sitting together to discuss this matter, just out of a responsible attitude towards the market, isn't it?"
Ye Yun's anger was not light, but he couldn't get angry, so he could only ask: "Is this your personal attitude, or the attitude of the Elders' Council?"
Elder Qian said with a straight face: "I represent the Council of Elders, do you have any other questions about Elder Ye, you might as well say it together, and Elder Ben will answer them one by one." ”
As he spoke, he glanced at Lei Shaoyuan, who had not spoken from beginning to end.
It is said that there has been a crack between Lei Shaoyuan and Ye Yunyang, and Elder Zhao is fighting for Lei Shaoyuan, it seems that it is true at this time, if his relationship with Ye Yunyang is still as iron as before, he must have spoken for him.
Ye Yunyang took a deep breath and said, "It seems that Elder Zhao has already chosen the team, and it is useless to say more, then there will be no problem, and he will resign." ”
With that, he turned to leave.
Lei Shaoyuan hugged his fist at Elder Qian, and then turned around and left.
In the corridor, the old man lowered his voice: "I'll just say, it's useless, you have to do more." ”
Ye Yunyang smiled faintly: "The posture that should be done must be done, otherwise, it will make people think about it." The fact that I was deflated in front of Elder Qian would soon reach the ears of Zheng Zirong and the others, who thought that I was helpless, instead of secretly waiting for an opportunity to fight back. ”
This is very important, if the other person perceives what he really thinks, he will prepare accordingly, and it will be difficult to defeat them all at once.
At the same time, an entourage walked up to Elder Qian, opened the folder and said, "According to the statistics just done, due to the fact that the Terrans have not been able to purchase two goods, medicinal materials and pills, during this time, the amount of purple gold in their hands has reached more than three billion taels ......"
Elder Qian frowned: "So much, it's only been half a month!"
The attendant nodded and said, "Because the amount of goods they have brought over has increased, if it were not for the increase in the output of ore, it is estimated that it would have exceeded four billion taels." ”
"What is the concept of three billion taels?" Elder Qian asked in a deep voice.
The retinue frowned, and said cautiously, "Close to one-third of the total amount of purple gold flowing in the God Realm, that is to say, one-third of our wealth has fallen into the pockets of the human race. Although the purple gold can only be used for them to purchase divine realm goods, and has no other use, if they hold it in their hands and refuse to spend it, we will have no money. ”
Elder Qian chuckled in his heart, and suddenly realized the seriousness of the matter.
