Chapter 124: Economic Crisis

Although Guo Yitian was in a different place, he was familiar with Li Yu at first sight. Seeing Li Yu, Guo Yitian felt much more at ease. Guo Yitian had a lot of things to ask the housekeeper, but he forgot to say anything for a while.

In fact, although Li Yu has inconvenient legs and feet, he is a very shrewd person. From that day when Guo Yitian fought for Master Li and the eldest grandson's family, Li Yu expected that Guo Yitian would definitely want to redeem Master Li in the future. Although Li Yu didn't know what the relationship between Guo Yitian and her had developed, Li Yu still had a lot of complaints about asking for help for the sake of Fengyue. The two are in love, and Guo Yitian also has the strength to redeem himself for each other. In order to spread out a puddle of troubled water, Li Yu chose to go home to avoid the limelight for a while, and by the way, he visited his parents who had not seen him for a long time.

Since Guo Yitian came to the door, he must have come to redeem Master Li. Guo Yitian sat on the top of the hall and looked like a guest. Guo Yitian looked at Li Yu's face, weathered but still in good spirits, and responded: "I'll just say it directly, I'm here to get the key to the Longmen Vault." ”

Although all this was expected by Li Yu, he was still a little shocked for a while when he saw Guo Yitian speak so directly. Li Yu had something to do to go to the kitchen and wanted Guo Yitian to think about it again.

As the minutes ticked by, Guo Yitian sat on the chair and kept tapping the table rhythmically with his fingertips, looking preoccupied, and his anxious emotions spread.

After a long time, Li Yu boiled a pot of hot water and brewed a bowl of good West Lake Longjing tea for Guo Yitian, and took this opportunity to change the topic, and said enthusiastically: "This West Lake Longjing tea is quite authentic, right?" Guo Yitian tasted it, the taste was fresh, the aftertaste was sweet, and he nodded and affirmed: "Authentic." ”

Then, Li Yu followed the origin of tea, Lu Yu's "Book of Tea", and the characteristics of West Lake Longjing. Guo Yitian suddenly felt refreshed and admired the wisdom of the ancients.

Half an hour passed, and Guo Yitian yawned unconsciously. Li Yu saw that he was getting sleepy, so he reminded: "Master Guo should be tired from the journey, why don't you rest in the cold house for one night?"

Guo Yitian was in high spirits, and suddenly remembered something important. But Li Yu wanted to leave again, and limped back to the bedroom. This made Guo Yitian not very happy, and the conversation between the two was spent in peace. Guo Yitian didn't want to break this peaceful atmosphere, after all, nine thousand taels was not a small amount. At that time, when Guo Yitian wanted to build Chunfeng Tower, Li Yu was very opposed.

The amount of money asked for now is not something that can be done with one or two thousand taels of silver, and Li Yu will naturally stand on the opposite side. Instead of constantly speculating on Li Yu's thoughts, it is better to be honest.

"Steward Li, don't go. I have important things to say to you. Guo Yitian said.

"I'm sleepy, let's talk about it tomorrow. Li Yu prevaricated.

"No! right now, tomorrow won't be too late. Guo Yitian put down his identity and said eagerly.

"Okay. Say, if I can do it, I'll do my best. If it is beyond the scope of the ego's duties, there is nothing that can be done about it. Li Yu drew a line and said.

"If the owner of this sect urgently needs a sum of money to help in an emergency, can Steward Li embezzle this fund?"

"The newly completed Chunfeng Building has caused financial constraints on Longmen. If it is less than one thousand taels, you can consider it. ”

"Don't be too rigid about the form, I may want a little too much silver, but it won't be like this in the future, the master of this door promises. ”

"How much?"

Guo Yitian gestured to nine, and Li Yu asked, "Nine hundred taels?" Guo Yitian said seriously: "No! Li Yu was dumbfounded and asked, "This is inevitably too much, isn't it?" Guo Yitian said aggressively: "But this money is very important to me, I must raise it in two days, otherwise Master Li will enter the endless abyss." ”

"What is your relationship with her, why are you so interested in her? Is it as rumored that you like her?"

"She is my savior, I want to give her a great future, that's all. Guo Yitian then recalled the pictures of being rescued by Master Li that day, although he had fallen unconscious at that time, but under the careful care of Master Li, he recovered his health.

After listening, Li Yu was actually moved by compassion and responded: "Let's go, I have the key to the vault here to give you." Guo Yitian was moved, and hurriedly took Li Yu's arm and walked out of the Li family compound.

The two came to a clearing, and Guo Yitian directly summoned the green dragon. Guo Yitian helped Li Yu onto the dragon's back, and then Guo Yitian also rode on the dragon's back. Qinglong asked, where were the two going. Guo Yitian said back to Longmen.

The speed of the green dragon is suffocating, and it has the reputation of traveling thousands of miles a day. Guo Yitian told Li Yu to sit firmly, and Qinglong would soon be able to return to Longmen.

In Li Yu's heart, it is already good to be able to travel dozens of miles a day. According to the speed of Qinglong, it is really jaw-dropping, and there is a feeling of crumbling.

Half an hour later, the two finally returned to Humen.

The two secretly came to the door of the Longmen vault, and each took out the vault key and inserted it into the lockhole. Guo Yitian thought that there would be at least two or three hundred thousand taels of silver in it, but he didn't see anything. Disappointed, Guo Yitian asked if the vault had been ransacked by thieves. Li Yu is also at a loss.

After leaving the vault, the disappointed expression on Guo Yitian's face became more obvious. So Guo Yitian prepared to convene a high-level meeting, that is, to investigate the mystery of the disappearance of the silver in the treasury.

In front of the hall, Guo Yitian and Li Yu were sitting precariously. After the four protectors came, Guo Yitian asked who had moved the silver in the treasury. The bandit didn't know the reason for the theft of the silver at all, because he had been practicing the Yixing fist of the inner disciple, and as for the second bandit, he was often busy with the normal operation of Yihe's commerce.

After being reminded by the second bandit, Li Yu recalled the mystery of the lack of money in the treasury: because of the development needs of Yihe commerce, the 350,000 taels of silver had been escorted to Yihe commercial operations all over the country as a commercial investment. Guo Yitian asked, so how much money can Suzhou Yihe Commercial raise now under the condition of ensuring normal operation.

Li Yu replied, less than three thousand taels. Guo Yitian's mood fluctuated, he just saw the dawn of hope, but it disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Since in order to strengthen the blueprint of Yihe business, there is a return on investment. But Guo Yitian still didn't expect that bad news would come one after another. The bandits reported that the eldest grandson family deliberately lowered the market price of goods, resulting in an extremely hot business of the eldest grandson family. The Boxer Tavern, which used to be functioning, is now crowded.

In order to reverse the defeat, Li Yu suggested that it is better to lower the market price together and make small profits but quick turnover. Guo Yitian thought about it, this is also a way out.

Unfortunately, the business blueprint of the eldest grandson family covers a wide range of industries, not only the catering industry, but also the textile industry, grain industry, mining industry, salt industry, fishing industry and so on. They frantically lowered prices for two purposes: one was to lose money and make money, and the other was to take revenge on Guo Yitian.

In the face of such a strong enemy, Guo Yitian felt a sense of crisis that he had never felt before. Since the eldest grandson family has started an economic war, Yihe Commerce must not show weakness. The commercial structure and the penthouse must be adjusted, and the price reduction promotion must be followed. In the end, who will be killed? It is not only whose economic strength is strong, but also whose strategic policy is correctly formulated.
