Chapter 325: The First War of the Merchants

"Your Lao Tian family, even if you eat, drink and Lazar, you can save fifty taels of silver a year, and it will only be five hundred taels in ten years."

The merchant said loudly.

"I earned that number last year." The merchant doubled with a slap.

The business behavior of Zhang Bola's investment has pointed out the direction for countless small businessmen who lack capital.

"Didn't your family sell pasta in Beiping City before, and your stall could earn 1,000 taels a year, deceiving ghosts."

"This business has long been gone, I'm mining now, do you understand mining mining?"

The merchant said angrily.

The Lao Tian family has been opposing him, interrupting him several times, which makes the merchant very dissatisfied.

"If you do this, you won't be afraid that the government will take you."

Lao Tian said threateningly.

"Ha, the biggest one in Beiping." The businessman gave a thumbs up, "This big man supports us, who dares to mess around?" ”

Although the merchant did not specify who it was, it was known that the merchant was talking about the royal palace.

The environment is different.

When the power of the local lord class is strong, it is natural that they have the right to speak, and in the face of the challenger - industry, they will naturally make a strong counterattack.

This is in line with the logic of the development of things.

But only if the landlord class is strong.

When the forces are not proportional, the weakness of the landlord class is revealed.

Beiping Prefecture is not the same as Shandong, and it is even more incomparable with the landlord forces in the south.

At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, after Zhu Yuanzhang's unchanged immigration policy for 30 years, the local big households had long been hit and breathless.

The big families in these places were split up and moved to different regions.

Although new acres of land were allocated and manpower was brought to underpopulated areas, the original network of relationships was wiped out and the right to speak was lost.

Even the influence of the government is not as good as that of the royal government, let alone the small landlords in the countryside.

The power of industry and the power of land have long been out of proportion.

Those dissatisfied voices can't set off the wind and waves.

It is also the confidence of businessmen who dare to slap the table.

It is also one of the reasons for the germination of capital ideas in the Jianghuai region at the end of the Ming Dynasty in the future.

The well-developed business environment in the Jianghuai region allowed the merchants to overpower the landlords, and the merchants were even able to defeat the imperial power.

The Wanli Emperor's tax collection in the Jianghuai region was dominated by textile workers, supplemented by citizens, and ended in a joint rebellion.

"You're welcome to tell you, if you don't keep up, the gap between me and you will get bigger and bigger in the future."

"When the time comes, huh."

"How dare you?" The descendants of the Lao Tian family roared.

"I don't dare to do anything, but you know the reason, now you beg me to join, and I don't want it."

"Everyone dissipates their anger first, they are all from the villagers, you can't look up and look down, why bother."

The rest of the people persuaded each other.

The merchant and the Lao Tian family ignored each other, but did not continue.

At last.

The merchant proved that he had indeed earned more than seven hundred taels of silver last year, and although it was a grain stamp, it was known that the grain stamp was equal to real money.

Seven hundred taels of silver.

Several families looked at each other with envy.

Lao Tian's family left angrily, and the rest of the family pulled the merchant to ask questions, and the merchant explained in detail.

In the end, the merchant invited several of their family members to go to Beiping for a visit.

Also looked at his small mine.

Finally.

The merchant got what he wanted, brought back more than 3,000 taels of real money and silver from his hometown, and then went to Kaiping to buy land, recruit workers, and then take the contract to the grain stamp bank for a loan.

The first pot of gold stumped the vast majority of ordinary people.

The merchant has the first pot of gold, and through the act of joint venture, the first pot of gold is enough to climb the threshold and enter the gate of the new world.

Kaiping is in the north.

New world.

The mineral resources here are abundant, there are many open-pit mines, high-quality minerals, low mining costs, and high production output.

The railway engineering team has already made a plan and started construction on the land, planning to lay the railway in half a year, with an average of five miles of land per day.

And mining at the mine also takes time.

Survey, buy land, go through procedures, recruit workers, purchase equipment, hire qualified stewards .......

The wages are higher every day.

There have even been incidents of robbing workers.

There was an armed battle between the two trading houses, and hundreds of people fought on horseback and weapons on the grassland.

It alarmed China Heavy Industry, and also alarmed the government and the royal government.

The Investigation Division initiated the investigation as soon as possible.

"Shabuddin Taiji has signed a contract to hand over his tribe's herdsmen to one of the two troublesome trading houses."

"But another company secretly contacted Sapudin and used a higher price to make Sapudding change his mind."

"Because there was a conflict between the two trading houses, and after many negotiations there was no agreement, so that there was an armed conflict."

"Where did they come from?"

"The two commercial houses have their own good Taiji, and they pay them to help fight the war."

Zhu Gaochi rubbed his temples.

"Too bold."

"What the little prince said is that you need to take care of it."

……

"It's incredible, it's an eye-opener, and people can't believe that this kind of thing can happen."

Zhu Neng, who was in charge of the rotation of military workers in Daning, was stunned.

"How did you come up with it? These businessmen are fucking geniuses. ”

"Are those Taiji stupid? The businessmen had a conflict, they fought first, grandma is a bear, lose your share. ”

Some generals felt that it was not worth it for them to fight those Taiji back then.

These Taiji are too embarrassed this time, and they are also ashamed to be their opponents for many years.

Kaiping Development and Infrastructure Group Corporation is even more angry.

When the momentum is like a rainbow, this kind of thing happens, and in the end they have to take the blame, how can they not be angry.

The entire Kaiping commercial bank has to look at the face of the Kaiping Development and Infrastructure Group Corporation to eat.

The head office of Kaiping Development and Infrastructure Group was angry, and the two troublesome commercial banks obediently came to explain, both saying that it was the other party's fault.

"Our firm has signed a contract with Sapuding, and they have violated the rules and tempted Sapudin to break the contract."

"What rules? Which rule prohibits it? You go to Shapuding, he broke the contract, you just have to look for him. ”

Contracts are mature business practices, and Shapudin knows a fart contract.

He thinks that his herdsmen can arrange to go to whichever mine he wants, and no one can control him.

As for the contract, what is it?

This is where civilized people suffer, and people are either ignorant or backward, because people naturally think that they are right.

What to do, you can only be angry.

The business house that was violated the contract naturally had to find a business firm that could reason with it, and the conflict between the two companies became stronger and stronger.

So much so that they have to give each other a good look, and there is such a big incident.

Now the two commercial banks are afraid and vigorously defend themselves in the Kaiping Development and Infrastructure Group Corporation building.

Many people are also watching.

How will the head office of Kaiping Development and Infrastructure Group punish the two firms.

Without making people wait long, Kaiping Development and Infrastructure Group Corporation gave a penalty notice.

Two firms, each fined 100 taels.

That's a fart punishment.

The merchants ignored it and didn't take it to heart anymore.

Soon after, a new rule was introduced.

It is forbidden to use various improper means to increase the labor price north of Kaiping and destroy the development environment of Kaiping.

It was found that one was severely punished together, and the serious one was deprived of the qualification to do business in Kaiping.

This punishment is severe.

However, most of the comptoirs were in favor of it.

No one wants to be dug up.

It is already difficult to recruit herders on the grasslands, and there is too little manpower.

They prefer rules to no rules, unless they have their own advantages, and now Kaiping, they want to compete in an orderly manner.

This provision.

It not only ensures their labor costs, but also avoids competition in employment.

The merchants made a profit, so naturally they would not violate this new rule, and it was quickly implemented.

When there are fewer people who oppose it, it is easier to implement the new rules.

When there are many people who oppose it, it is easy for the new regulations to go bankrupt.

Even the head office of Kaiping Development and Infrastructure Group has to consider its own prestige and will not follow the rules.

Shapudding is having a hard time.

Shapudin was to pay a fine of one hundred taels as a penalty for violating the contract.

One hundred taels is a small amount for a trading house, but a large amount for a sabding, and of course he is not willing to pay.

Therefore, the Kaiping Development and Infrastructure Group Corporation did not allow the commercial banks to use the herdsmen of the Shapuding tribe, which put Shapuddin in trouble.

Except for the profit he wanted, the herders who lost their wages didn't matter.

Their wages are paid directly by the mine to the sapuding.

Shapudin was relatively generous at the beginning, and he deducted two or three percent, and as Shapuding went to Beiping City more and more, the deduction became more and more powerful.

Now the herders are not interested in working in the mines, because there are too many sand buttens of them.

Sha Puddin even bought a house in Peiping.

"Our people work in the mines, and they only have five dollars of silver a month, or one hundred taels of silver, which is equivalent to a month's work for nothing."

In the new house in Beiping.

Shabuddin grumbled to the merchant.

"If you do something wrong, you have to bear the consequences, and the longer you delay, the more you lose." The merchant comforted him.

"You are working against the Kaiping Development and Infrastructure Group Corporation, and you can't get any benefits."

"Alas, it's too bullying."

Sapudding shows weakness.

Although he still doesn't feel that he has done anything wrong, he still pays the fine.

June on the grassland north of Kaiping is like a big construction site.

Different from the model of the construction business group of the three provinces, the management here in Kaiping is more strict, because it is pressed by the head office of Kaiping Development and Infrastructure Group.

Countless projects have flowed out of the Kaiping Development and Infrastructure Group Corporation, and they have been contracted by businessmen one by one.

Abide by the policies set by Kaiping Development and Infrastructure Group Corporation.

Countless herders left their horses and stood on the ground to work industriously.

At least.

Against the backdrop of this year's grassland drought, many people have a new way to survive and are no longer threatened with death.

"We need to hurry up the deadline here."

The management system supported by China Heavy Industries has become the guest of honor of each commercial bank and helped the commercial bank establish the backbone of the organization.

Behind the stewards and team leaders followed some young graduates, as well as some young people on the grassland.

Most of the young people on the grassland come from the children of the head people, who can speak and write.

They carried pens and paper, just like the school's recent graduates.
