Chapter 152: Shrewd Imperial Merchant

Yun Yu did not embarrass Cui Yue, but asked him to find all the imperial merchants in the capital.

The stalls that need to be laid for this wine and sugar are relatively large, and Yun Yu has to select some of them from these royal shops.

If you have this ready-made, why spend a lot of money to buy a shop yourself!

Anyway, the emperor is also the emperor who has the majority of this, so it is also appropriate to let him have more things.

"Yun Gongzi, this matter is a little difficult."

Cui Yue's face was embarrassed, obviously although those imperial businessmen were restrained by him, they couldn't do it if they wanted to be like an arm.

"What's so difficult? As the Shaofu Commander, you have been controlling these imperial merchants for the emperor, and now you can't even invite them? ”

Yun Yu was a little surprised, Cui Yue no longer had the ability to say that he was also an official, and he was an official who specialized in managing those imperial merchants, and those imperial merchants did not dare to disobey Cui Yue even if they ate the bear's heart and leopard gall.

After all, a group of businessmen with no social status, and they are just part-time workers, Cui Yue can let them be laid off directly with a word, and can he still command these people?

"Gongzi doesn't know, those imperial businessmen are not ordinary people, they are businessmen, but in fact, they are also people from the families recommended to His Majesty by major families, each of them has some background, otherwise it is impossible to do business safely and soundly in the capital, I can nominally be in charge of them, but in fact, it depends on their faces."

Cui Yue felt that his Shaofu Order was simply too much of a failure, so he secretly glanced at Yun Yu with his eyes, and saw that the other party did not show disgust, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

"These families are so bold that they have put their hands into the emperor's private treasury! Does the emperor not care? ”

Yun Yu knew that the emperor was poor, but he didn't expect it to be such a poor method, and even the private treasury was about to be emptied by the family, no wonder he was so happy to hear that he could make money.

Those families also died by themselves, and they were not afraid of being punished by the nine clans when they were forced by the emperor, and everything they had accumulated before was made into a wedding dress for the emperor, they were really a group of guys.

"Alas! Your Majesty can't take care of it, after all, talents are rare, even if you remove these people and replace them with those who have no background, and want to do business in the capital, you have to look at the faces of these big families at that time, and you can't go with them, and you will be squeezed to death in the end, so it is also a helpless way to do things. ”

Cui Yue doesn't have a good way, his subordinates are just these people, and they can still make some money with how much they use, and sooner or later they will be eaten by those families and there will be no scum left.

"They dare to play tricks on the emperor?"

Yun Yu didn't believe this, could it be that those people thought that the emperor's butcher's knife was unfavorable? Or do you think King Qi is too old to lift a knife?

"That's not true, these families are also fighting with each other, relying on their own strong financial resources I don't know how many chambers of commerce have squeezed to death, and they don't violate the law, even if Your Majesty wants to attack, there is no reason."

"If you want to say that, I will understand, and tell them directly that I will feast them here this afternoon, and if you don't come, you will bear the consequences."

can only use commercial means, and Yun Yu is really not afraid of these people.

The two sides are not in the same dimension at all, and they can crush them by virtue of the quality of the goods.

There are many people in the capital who are not short of money, and the methods that could not be used in Qi County before must be like a fish in water here.

"The lower officials understand, so I'll go and inform them."

Cui Yue didn't say anything anymore when he saw Yun Yu like this, and went down to inform those imperial merchants.

Yun Yu also took the opportunity to let the factory take out the first batch of goods first, and wait until the afternoon to open the eyes of these imperial merchants, if they don't repent, just a few businessmen, it's a big deal to train a few by themselves, it's nothing more than a matter of spending a little more time.

In the evening, Yun Yu waited for a banquet in Huangzhuang.

Cui Yue came with three or five people with a guilty face.

"Childe, the lower officials have insulted the mission, and only five of the thirty-seven shopkeepers came."

Cui Yue didn't even enter the door, and shrank at the door.

originally thought that at least one-third could be invited, but he didn't expect to come to five families, so he really had no place to put his face away.

"It's okay, five families will be five, and the rest will not obey the emperor's orders, and they will have their own plans in the future."

Yun Yu never thought of himself as a generous person, since they didn't want to give face, they wouldn't give it.

After these five companies began to sell wine and sugar in the capital, those red-eyed people wanted to demand themselves, and then slowly pinch them.

It's just some minions who take care of the shop for the emperor, and they really think those things are theirs.

You don't need to care about them if you don't have to make money by yourself, but this winery and sugar factory have their own share, which affects them and counts them unlucky.

"Come on, come on, please sit in first!"

After these people sat down and Cui Yue introduced them one by one, Yun Yu found out that the five people behind them had something to do with him, and they were entrusted by the head of the family to deliberately support themselves to come to the field, otherwise there would really be no one.

Among the five shopkeepers, two surnamed Lu are distant royal relatives, and after coming to the capital, they will work under King Qi.

One surnamed Qian is Yun Qian's domestic servant.

There is also a surname Wang, and a surname Zhou, who is the righteous son of the great eunuch in the palace, who paid the most when they were offered in previous years, and belonged to a member of the imperial party.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors, Yun Yu began to talk about the purpose of looking for them.

"You should have seen it when you came, or Cui Shaofu also told you, the main business this time is wine and sugar, as for the output, it is not a problem to supply the entire capital, and the rest of you can ask if you have any questions."

"Yun Gongzi, I'm afraid we can't do this wine business." The money shopkeeper stood up and said.

"Why can't you do it? Could it be that there are still people in the imperial businessmen who dare to suppress it? ”

"It's not like that, but the best wine in the capital is in the hands of the Tianshui Yang family, and the Sanle pulp they got from foreign countries has a mellow taste and overflowing with the aroma of wine, and the dignitaries in the capital recognize them as a family, and it is difficult for us to take a share from them."

The money shopkeeper is mainly responsible for the rouge gouache business, but he usually likes wine, so he pays more attention to the wine industry in the capital.

The Sanle pulp in the hands of the Tianshui Yang clan can be described as a must in the capital, and every other wine seller is their opponent.

The Yang family occupies sixty percent of the liquor business in the capital, and the remaining forty percent is only the turn of more than 30 other liquor shops to share the profits, which is still the Yang family is unwilling to offend people too much, and deliberately set aside the share, if it annoys the Yang family, I am afraid that I can't even afford to drink soup when selling alcohol in the capital.

"Hahahaha! What should I be the problem? Since I can call you over, this wine is naturally not a problem, come and serve new wine, so that you can taste it. ”
