"The Weaving Bureau can buy them all, but there are conditions." Li Qing added another sentence.

Hearing this, the joy on the faces of these silk hoarders stiffened, and they knelt down and kowtowed again and again.

"My lord, we're about to lose all of our money this time, we really can't stand the toss!"

"Yes, sir, you can do it all when you're old, we really can't hold it anymore!"

Xiao Liuzi slapped the table and said sharply: "Be quiet, if you don't want to sell raw silk, get out immediately." ”

Everyone immediately shut up and looked at Li Qing worriedly.

Li Qing said with a smile: "Don't worry, don't embarrass you, this condition is very simple;

In the next three years, half of your raw silk will be sold to the imperial court, and the price will be at the current price. ”

After a pause, "Of course, if you don't want to, and the official doesn't force it, you can sell it to those big silk farmers, as for what price they will pay...... Hehe, you love me to buy and sell, although the official is a bad officer, but it is not easy to interfere. ”

"Adult, villain willing."

"The grass people are willing, too."

……

In previous years, the price of raw silk was seventy percent, and the big silk households refused to accept it, and the devil knows how far they would push the price of raw silk.

If Shengsi doesn't hurry up, not only will they go bankrupt, but they will also face prison, and they have no choice at all.

Next year, at this price, they will suffer a little loss, but compared to those big silk households, the court has done its best, so what do they have to hesitate.

No one refused.

Li Qing raised his chin, "Father-in-law." ”

Xiao Liuzi arched his hand and took out the documents that had been prepared from his arms, "Sign your name, press your handprint, we will trade tonight, and as soon as the goods arrive, I will give you the silver immediately." ”

A group of people took the paperwork, read it back and forth several times, and after confirming that there was no problem, they quickly signed and drew it.

"You go outside and wait first, and there will be an official to connect with you later." Li Qing waved his hand, "Go ahead." ”

"Yes, sir." A group of people hula and retreated.

Li Qing got up and said, "Father-in-law, let the brothers of Jinyiwei work harder tonight, it is best to transport all the raw silk back before dawn, and tell them to do a good job tonight, and reward each of them two taels of silver." ”

"Don't worry, my lord, the workers under those people are not old or young, plus our brothers in Jinyiwei, this long night is enough." Xiao Liuzi patted his chest and promised, "Hello, my lord, I will rest for a long time, and our family promises not to leave one or two raw silks." ”

"Well, my father-in-law has always done things safely, so Ben Qincha is lazy." Li Qing said with a smile.

Jinyiwei is under the jurisdiction of the East Factory, and the East Factory is under the supervision of the priest, so that Xiao Liuzi can mobilize Jinyiwei, which is better than Li Qing's own start.

Of course, he knew that Xiao Liuzi wanted to get some oil and water from it, but that didn't matter.

It is not advisable to let people do things and ask people to take nothing.

~

"Brothers, do your best tonight, and each of you will be rewarded with a tael of silver." Xiao Liuzi rolled up his arms and sleeves, "But if anyone is cheating and playing tricks, hum, don't blame our family for not being emotional." ”

"Father-in-law, don't worry."

…

Li Qing sat in the warehouse of the Weaving Bureau, guarding the gold and silver, waiting for the raw silk.

At that time, raw silk began to be transported, and then, one cart after another.

A large amount of raw silk was hoarded in the warehouse, and in the second half of the night, the entire warehouse was full.

Fortunately, Li Qing had made preparations before and vacated a dyeing workshop and a grocery store, but even so, it was still difficult to hoard, and by dawn, raw silk was crowded with these places. gòйЪ.ōΓg

Due to Li Qing's previous price hikes, these large sericulture farmers concentrated all of Jinling, and even the raw silk within a radius of dozens of miles outside Jinling, in their own hands.

The amount of raw silk is only huge, nearly half more than in previous years.

Li Qing is naturally the more the merrier, the warehouse is not enough, so he is piled up in the backyard corridor of the Weaving Bureau, and the room is ...... But all the land that can shelter from the wind and rain is used to store raw silk.

This is just an expedient measure, and after this matter is over, he will take these raw silk to the weaving bureau in Suzhou and Hangzhou.

After this incident, Su Hang's raw silk will definitely be nervous, and the same method may not be effective if used the second time, but Li Qing is already satisfied.

These silks can at least be used by the Jiangnan Weaving Bureau until June and July next year, plus half of the raw silk of the large sericulture farmers next year, how can they deal with it until the end of the year.

As for the future...... After getting through this beginning, it's easy to talk about it later.

Shen Mansion Compound.

There was a big drama on the stage; The rich gentry in the audience shook their heads, and the spring breeze was proud.

From time to time, a rich gentry threw a handful of broken silver, which caused the actors on the stage to be glamorous.

In this era, almost all the people who sing are men, but the corners in the troupe, put on fat powder, wear red clothes, the orchid fingers are cocked, the eyes are flattering, and the figure and posture are more feminine than women.

The rich gentry are extremely extravagant, they have no shortage of women, sometimes they are tired, and they will change their tastes, and there are not a few people who have a habit of breaking their sleeves.

This is the case now, several rich gentry have taken a fancy to the pillars in the opera troupe, vying to be the big brother on the list.

The silver was sprinkled with a bang.

Shen Xin is not good at this, he is more concerned about raw silk, today is the ninth day, and tomorrow is the deadline.

The day after tomorrow was the day of reckoning, and he believed that by the afternoon at the latest, those people would come to the door.

This is also the reason why he called the rich gentry to the house to watch the play, the previous agreement was the same thing, but when it comes to harvesting raw silk, it is inevitable that no one will want to eat more and occupy more.

He took a sip of tea, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, today's tea is especially delicious.

At this moment, the housekeeper of the house hurriedly ran over and said hurriedly: "Master, something is wrong." ”

Seeing that many rich gentry looked over, Shen Xin smiled and said, "It's okay, you guys continue, there are some things at home, Shen is out of company." ”

"Master, it's not our family's business," the housekeeper said urgently, "it's your lord's business." ”

Shen Xin frowned, and asked urgently, "What's the matter?" ”

"Raw silk, raw silk is all in the weaving bureau!" The housekeeper said in a trembling voice, "The little one sent someone to investigate, they started last night, and they haven't stopped, it is said that the raw silk of the Weaving Bureau cannot be saved now." ”

"What?"

Shen Xin, who had always been calm, changed color in shock, "How is this possible, how can the Weaving Bureau still have money?" ”

The other people's faces also changed greatly, including several rich gentlemen who were competing for the first place, and they were also in no mood, and their faces were hard to see.

"Then didn't Qincha allocate money from the household department again?"

"No way, he didn't get a penny." A rich gentry denied.

"Could it be that he allocated the money from the imperial court?"

"It shouldn't be, there are people watching on land and water, if that's the case, no one will be informed."

Shen Xin woke up from the shock and asked urgently, "At what price did he receive it?" ”

"I haven't heard about this little one yet." The housekeeper said, "But it doesn't matter, the weaving bureau is almost finished harvesting the raw silk, and now it's too late to stop it." ”

"Plop~" Shen Xin sat on the chair, then stood up again, and exclaimed: "Hurry, go and buy raw silk, at the original price, not twice the price, how much is it, go quickly." ”

When the others saw this, they also came back to their senses, and their buttocks seemed to be on fire, and they rushed out with their heads bored.

They bought a lot of raw silk from Suzhou and Hangzhou, but it was far from enough for the workshop, mainly because they expected that the raw silk from Jinling would fall into their hands.

But now that this situation has happened, if they don't rush to buy raw silk, they won't wait for the Chinese New Year, and their workshop will have to stop.

No one cares about watching the play, and the lively courtyard is deserted for a moment, leaving the drama alone to sing.

Shen Xin hurriedly walked out, "Prepare the sedan chair, no, prepare the horse, I want to see Boss Zhang." ”

Yesterday, he ignored the begging to sell him raw silk Boss Zhang, but today he can't climb a little high.

"Butler, go to the backyard and bring the Ninth Lady, go quickly."

……

At the same time, the same drama was played out in other rich gentry.

Gift-giving, money-giving, a group of wealthy gentry or sedan chair, or horseback, hurried to the home of their former partner.

They were fast enough, but they were still a step slower, and by the time they arrived, those big silkworm farmers had already sold out of raw silk, and there were not a single or two left.

It was mainly the government's hoarding that scared them.

"Hey... Yikes! Shen Xin gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, "Damn, I was slammed by others!" ”

He quickly made a decision, "Butler, you immediately send someone to Suzhou and Hangzhou to purchase raw silk, remember, as long as the price is not more than three times, how much can be collected, how much is counted." ”

"Master, with such a high price, we don't have much to earn!"

", isn't Lao Tzu clearer than you?" Shen Xin scolded, "It doesn't matter if you don't make money, but if the workshop stops and the workers leave, what will I do next year, hurry up, and find the eldest young master for approval." ”

"Yes, yes, the little ones will go." The housekeeper hurriedly agreed, and hurriedly went.

Shen Xin took a deep breath, turned over and got on his horse, "Go to the Weaving Bureau." ”

"Master, what about the concubine?" The Ninth Lady chased after her and shouted.

"Go home."
