As soon as Sun Ci got up early, the steward he hired brought today's Bianjing Xinbao and Bianjing Yibao.

He first picked up the Bianjing Yibao and read it carefully.

His cultural level is not very high, so it is very difficult for him to read.

But it doesn't matter, he has several poor people.

If you encounter something you don’t understand, just take it and ask what it means, and you’ll always be able to figure it out.

Therefore, after spending a lot of effort, he finally finished reading the contents of Bianjing Yibao.

Putting down the tabloid, Sun Ci shook his head: "Recently, the number of poems and poems published in the Bianjing Yibao has declined."

"Of course it will go down." A scholar sitting opposite him replied: "Sima Xianggong has been recuperating at home after the foot sore broke out last month. I heard that it is difficult to even walk now."

"My old husband is seriously ill, so the favor is light."

"Many people no longer write poems and poems for Bianjing Yibao."

When the Bianjing Yibao was founded, it was very popular.

The elders and governors, including Grand Master Wen Yanbo, used their own names to publish poems and essays on it.

Therefore, paper in Luoyang is expensive.

But slowly, the quality of the poems above began to decline.

This is even more true now.

That is to say, Yan Jidao, who was hired by Sima Kang with a lot of money, could occasionally produce excellent works.

Sun Ci nodded. In Bianjing City, such things have happened one after another throughout the ages.

Apart from other things, after Wang Gongchen's death last year, the once prosperous Wang family suddenly became deserted.

Today, Wang Gongchen's descendants are even fighting a lawsuit over property rights.

What a shame!

So, he picked up the Bianjing New Newspaper and only glanced at it. Sun Ci asked the manager who had been standing beside him: "Manager Zhang, a few days ago, I ordered the store to send back all the remaining money."

How much money do you have at home now?"

Manager Zhang replied: "Reporting to my lord, there are currently more than 3,000 guan of Jiaozi in the family, and there are also silk cloth, copper coins, gold and silver worth more than 10,000 guan."

Sun Ci listened and frowned: "Why are there so few?"

"Didn't I say that I should prepare at least 50,000 yuan of silk in the near future?"

Manager Zhang replied: "Master, if the whipping is too severe, the store may not be able to open its doors!"

The stalls in Sun Jiazheng Store are now quite large.

The farthest foot shop has opened in Baima County.

For such a big stall, the amount of cash needed to be turned over every day is naturally astronomical.

Sun Ci said directly: "Don't worry about this!"

"How much money do you have, how much money can you draw!"

Manager Zhang hesitated: "If those families find out about this matter... there may be trouble..."

Each of the 72 main stores in Bianjing is ostensibly opened by merchants, but in fact, behind them are noble relatives and even civil servants.

These families control these main stores in the form of fighting or leading.

The merchants who run the main stores can make money, so they continue to lie down and count the money.

If you can't make money, just kick it out and replace it with one that can make money.

Of course, businessmen are not stupid either.

If the big shots behind them can cover them up, they will continue to be dogs for these people.

If not, I will change myself to something that can cover me.

This has been the case for hundreds of years.

Naturally, Sun Ci was not exempt from vulgarity.

Hearing this, he chuckled: "If those families have any objections, you can come to me!"

"Someone can withdraw their shares!"

Now, he has found a real supporter.

As a result, the offensive and defensive momentum changed.

He had long wanted to kick him away!

It's just that he didn't dare - to kick away the nobles who supported him when he got the upper hand.

What is this when it falls into the palace?

Unfaithful!

Therefore, I can only hold my nose and continue to distribute money to each other.

But if they are ignorant.

Then Sun Ci would not hesitate!

When Sun Ci said this, Manager Zhang immediately said: "Lord, I'll do it right away."

"As soon as possible!" Sun Ci said with a frown.

After sending Manager Zhang away, Sun Ci shook his head and sighed: "These people are so short-sighted!"

"All I know is money, money, money!"

"One day I will be like the Zhang family and be killed by money!"

That Manager Zhang was forced to come over from a distinguished family to monitor him.

Regardless of these nobles, people in Bianjing have been rich and prosperous for two or three generations.

But each one is stingier and stingier than the other.

That is to say, Sun Ci's background was too low, and in order to make a fortune in his early years, he had to join others.

Otherwise, he really wouldn't bother to submit to such a short-sighted nobleman.

Several of the scholars laughed.

One of them said: "What Mr. Sun said is true!"

"Today, the most valuable thing is money!"

“Without the permission of the imperial court, you can’t make money even if you have it!”

Sun Ci listened and thought deeply.

His Sunjiazheng store is like this.

Nowadays, there are only five serious shops in Bianjing City that can brew and sell liquor, which is commonly known as "Yuye Liquor" and "Palace Liquor".

It’s not like others don’t!

Liquor distillation technology is not difficult.

The koji for making wine can be made with the koji from Guanquyuan and slightly improved.

But the question is - who dares to sell?

Royal franchise, limited operation!

It may not be a problem to secretly brew some at home and drink it at home.

As long as someone dares to sell it publicly.

Officials from Kaifeng Prefecture will come to your door immediately.

Then, five official stores licensed by Royal Power can let this person know what Iron Fist is.

It is precisely for this reason that everyone is willing to cooperate with the officials in the palace and do whatever they want.

And the initiative is very high!

"Hmph!" Sun Ci shook his head and said, "That's it for a household dog."

Within this year, he will find a way to kick out those companies in a reasonable and reasonable manner.

Then concentrate on hugging the thigh inside the palace.

How can sending money to them be compared to sending money to the palace?

"Let's not talk about them!" Sun Ci looked at the scholars in front of him, cupped his hands and said, "You still have to work hard these two days."

"We have to keep a close eye on that side of Jing'anfang!"

"If it goes on sale, I will be the first to appear in Jing'anfang!"

"Fifty thousand guan, smash them all out!"
