Chapter 129: Miscellaneous Business Connections
As a Momen man, Mo Yan understood the meaning of his words as soon as he heard the words of the gentleman. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
Mo Yan nodded and said, "A few little friends, don't worry. Today's events, I Momen is at fault first. Since the old man is here, he will definitely keep all the friends alive. ”
After saying that, Mo Yan stood up and said as if talking to himself: "This Xiangyang City is getting more and more lively. Immediately, Mo Yan said, "Since an old friend is here, please show up and see it." Although the voice was not loud, to everyone's ears, the entire Suzaku Street seemed to be the voice of only Mo Yan.
As soon as Mo Yan's voice fell, the figures on the roofs on the side of the street flashed, and four figures fell in the field.
These four figures are all four old men.
The middle one is a round-faced old man dressed as an outsider. The round-faced old man was dressed in a navy blue base and a crimson pattern, and on top of his head, he wore a cyan hat.
To the left of the round-faced old man is an old man with a thin face and a thin body. The old man was dressed like a housekeeper of a large family. In the old man's hand, he carried a Sima scale.
To the right of the round-faced old man, there were two old men. The one near the round-faced old man was a man dressed as a shopkeeper. In this person's hand, he is holding an abacus. To the right of this person is a man who looks like a bookkeeper. This man, like the round-faced old man, was empty-handed.
As soon as the four of them landed in the field, the round-faced old man immediately arched his hand to Mo Yan, and said with a smile: "Guan Mou has seen Juzi!" After greeting Mo Yu, the round-faced old man arched his hand to Lao Dao again, and the smile on his face was even greater, and said: "Guan Mou has seen the Taoist!
Mo Yan said lightly: "Manage all directions, weigh thousands of gold, count 100 cents, and remember 10 points." What kind of big deal is there in this Xiangyang City, which is worth your miscellaneous family to come up with such a big deal and let the four of you come here at the same time?"
Lao Dao also said coldly: "With such a big courage of the miscellaneous family, do you want to use the entire Xiangyang City for trading?"
After Mo Yan said the names of the four old men, everyone in the audience, including Liu Yunfeng and Dugu Han, who were extremely knowledgeable, were all confused. Only the four monks of Northern Shaolin and the seven members of the Confucian family, after hearing Mo Jian and Lao Dao say "miscellaneous family", their faces were quite solemn.
This miscellaneous family, according to legend, is also one of the hundred schools of thought thousands of years ago, and it was gathered in the hands of Lu Buwei, the prime minister of the powerful Qin at that time.
Lü Buwei is a businessman, but he has the talent to go through the heavens and the earth. This person not only conquered the world and created a wealth that rivaled the wealth of the country, but also entered politics from business, and successively held various official positions in Qiang Qin, until the official worshiped the prime minister.
Not only that, Lü Buwei was very discerning and knowledgeable, and he fully supported the Great Qin Proton Government, so that it could achieve the hegemony of dominating the world.
Although Lü Buwei had long since disappeared when the First Emperor swept the Six Kingdoms and ruled the world, neither the wild history, miscellaneous talks, nor the history books have erased the merits of this strange merchant in the First Emperor's achievement of hegemony.
During Lü Buwei's lifetime, he was respected as a strong Qin prime minister and gathered the strength of thousands of guests to compile "Lü's Spring and Autumn Period". This book should be in response to the time of the day, in the observation of human feelings, down to the geographical advantages, take Confucianism, Taoism, law, ink, name, soldiers, agriculture and other family strengths, and finally become a miscellaneous holy text.
Because of the miscellaneous thoughts, there is not only the style of Confucianism, but also the foundation of Taoism, as well as the rule of the Legalists, the righteousness of the Mohists, the thinking of the famous families, the strategy of the soldiers and the basis of the farmers.
Later, since the first emperor destroyed Confucianism and revived the law, hundreds of schools of thought fought endlessly and poured into each other. Even Confucianism, Taoism, Buddhism, Dharma, and Mo, which were once brilliant and dazzling, have all suffered great ups and downs.
With these struggles, the miscellaneous family gradually fell apart. The people of the miscellaneous family each return to their origins, from Confucianism to Confucianism, and from Taoism. Only Lü Buwei's old line has been prosperous for thousands of years.
This vein is the business vein. After the rest of the miscellaneous families returned to Confucianism, Taoism, Law, Mo, Ming, Bing, Agriculture and other schools, the people of the merchant line called themselves the authentic sects of the miscellaneous families.
It's just that people in business are not like Confucianism, Taoism, Legalism, and Buddhism, and they don't have the holy scriptures that are widely known to the world, and there are no holy places like Confucius, Wudang, and Shaolin.
Although there are many people with business connections and great ambitions, they are always engaged in profit-oriented business.
People in business, from the appearance of it, are loosely organized and go their own way. You sell your salt, and I sell my cloth, and they seem to have nothing to do with each other. But giants like the Confucian family and the Mo family know that secretly, people with business connections actually have a set of extremely strict rules.
One of the rules is that no one should disturb the rules of the mall and harm the interests of the entire business network.
Let's take a simple example.
When Arai salt was listed, except for the official buying and selling, most of the rest were in the hands of people with business connections. Although the price of well salt in the hands of people with business connections is also different due to different regions, the people with business connections have a secret range for their fluctuations.
For example, in the Xiangyang area, people with business connections may set the sale price of Arai salt at between 50 and 60 yuan. In the Taiyuan area, in the current situation of war tension, the people of the merchant network may raise the price of Xinjing salt to 90 to 100 Wen.
In these two places, it is considered proper for those who hold the business connections of Arai salt to sell between the two fixed prices.
It would be okay if a few people in business were kind enough to lower the price of Arai salt a little bit and sell some of it at a low price, which would be regarded as a good deed. After all, there are not many of them, and the losses are also borne by such business connections. And, occasionally, it can also win some good names for people in business.
However, if people with business connections sell a large number of new well salt in these two cities at low prices because of excessive hoarding or big nerves, resulting in a sharp drop in the price of new well salt in the two cities, and even the price of new well salt in the surrounding areas is also lower, this is to damage the interests of the entire business network and break the rules of the business network.
If this happens, there are usually two ways for people in business.
The first method is to buy back the sold Xinjing salt as soon as possible with the funds of the business connections, so as not to let it flow into the market too much, and then stabilize its price by controlling the total market volume of Xinjing salt. After the price stabilizes, the losses suffered by the people in the business network as a result of the sell-off will be claimed by the people who sold them.
This is a gentle approach.
The second way is to directly dispatch people like Guan Wanfang to "negotiate deals" with people who break the rules. As long as a person like Guan Wanfang comes out, the deal can usually be "negotiated" immediately. And people like Guan Wanfang who took the initiative to come to the door to "discuss" the business will generally close the door immediately, and from then on, they will withdraw from the business in this industry. There are also others who have since disappeared from the world's sight.
And a figure like Guan Wanfang is one of the people in charge of the business generation.
Lao Dao and Mo Yan both know that there is no supreme figure in the Mo Sect like Mo Yan. The people in charge of the business network are all made up of a small group. More than a dozen people, as few as six or seven. The smaller the number, the more concentrated and powerful the person in charge will be.
This generation of business leaders is the least in these hundreds of years. As far as Lao Dao and Mo Yan know, there are only four people who appear here at this moment: Guan Wanfang, weighing thousands of gold, counting 100 cents and remembering 10 points.
There are very few business connections that really require Guan Wanfang and others to personally intervene. And like today, the four people who were in charge of ten thousand squares, weighing thousands of gold, counting hundreds, and remembering ten points were dispatched at the same time, and even Mo Yan and the old Taoist had never heard of them.
is in charge of Wanfang's head, and he usually manages the affairs of the world's business connections. However, when necessary, managing Wanfang can also manage the general trend of the world.
The Sima scale in the hand of the weighing daughter usually weighs yellow and white things such as real gold and silver. However, there are many people who have weighed this scale.
The abacus in the hands of Baili is usually carefully calculated, and it is all kinds of incomings and outs of the world's business connections. However, this abacus, from time to time, will also calculate the life and death of people's yin and yang.
As for the tenth, there was an account book and a wolf's hair around his waist. In this account book, there are not many running accounts, but there are many names of the dead.
Guan Wanfang heard Mo Yan and Lao Dao ask questions one after another, and once again bowed his hand to the two of them, and said with a smile: "Guan Mou and others are doing small business, where is there such a skill and courage as Juzi and Dao Chang said?"
Mo Yan's face remained unchanged, and he still asked lightly: "Guan Wanfang, since the four people in charge of your miscellaneous family have appeared here, what is the deal, just say it directly." There's no need to hide it. ”
Guan Wanfang smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed, and he replied: "Juzi, Guan Mou and the four of them came here today, and it was indeed someone who introduced a deal. However, whether to accept this deal or not, Guan and others have not yet made up their minds. ”
After that, Guan Wanfang tilted his head to the left, and asked with a smile to the daughter of the scale, "Second brother, what do you mean?"
The daughter of the scale frowned and said, "I haven't weighed anything, and I can't make up my mind." ”
Liang Qianjin replied to Guan Wanfang's words, tilted her head to the right, looked at Guan Wanfang's right side and asked, "Third child, what do you think?"
Shu Baili grabbed the abacus with his left hand, crackled a few times on the abacus with his right hand, and said, "In my opinion, this deal is not very easy to do." The benefits are great, and the cost is also large. One is not good, I'm afraid it will lose money. ”
After finishing speaking, he also tilted his head, looked at the Ji Shi on his right, and asked, "Fourth, what do you say?"
Ji replied with a sad face: "I haven't recorded an account for a long time. I don't know how much I'll be able to keep track of this transaction if I take this deal forward. ”
After the four of them finished speaking, Guan Wanfang's face also showed sadness, and he said to Mo Yan and Lao Dao: "Juzi, Dao Chief, this deal, Guan Mou and the other four can't be settled for a while." Discretion is still needed. ”
After that, Guan Wanfang asked, "I don't know what happened to Juzi and Dao Chang here today?"
Lao Dao smiled coldly, and didn't answer Wanfang's words, but asked rhetorically: "What, do you want to take care of Lao Dao's affairs?"
Guan Wanfang seemed to be startled, and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "How dare you, how dare you!" The Taoist chief doesn't come to take care of Guan Mou's affairs, Guan Mou has already burned high incense. Where do you dare to manage the chief's affairs? Dao Chief, please take care of yourself!"
Mo Yan said lightly: "The old man is here today, and there are some families that need to be dealt with in advance. Why? Don't you dare to wait for the chief's business, do you have to take care of the old man's business?"
Guan Wanfang seemed to be taken aback again, and waved his hand again: "How dare Guan and the others take care of Juzi's family affairs? Juzi, since you have family affairs to deal with, you are busy, you are busy!"
After that, Guan Wanfang wiped a handful of sweat on his head, seemed to wipe away some sweat, and muttered: "What's the matter today, the anger is so big? It seems that today is not good, and the business is not good!" (To be continued.) )
