Chapter 1116 Collusion inside and outside, pitting the Huang family(1/2)
Doing business is about making money, the more the better.
This is the businessman's rule.
Maximizing interests is their pursuit.
No one can transcend this pursuit. The only thing that can transcend is that he feels that he has earned enough money and has to pursue something else, such as power.
The little lady Huang happily held a small party in the back garden of her home. She handed her handkerchiefs and covered her mouth with handkerchiefs and smiled reservedly.
This kind of poetry is mostly the place where girls’ dreams sprout, with all kinds of pink bubbles permeating.
"The most outstanding poem recently is the poem by Duke Chen County...the fairy on Magpie Bridge."
The little lady Huang's face was slightly cold, and she looked at the girl without saying anything.
The girl Yingying stood up, covered half of her face with a round fan, and said, "There is a trick on the clouds... When the golden wind and jade dew meet, it will be better than it. There are countless people in the world... If the two loves last for a long time, how can they be there? Day and night..."
She put down her fan and smiled and said, "When the golden wind and jade dew meet, if the two loves last for a long time, it will make people think of the meeting of the Magpie Bridge. I think the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl will definitely read this poem, so she looks at the world. This year, this is such an excellent word, what do you think?"
Everyone covered their mouths and looked at Miss Huang.
Who doesn’t know that Miss Huang has a grudge with the Shen family? Do you praise Chen An? Is this trying not to give the master a face?
Mrs. Huang was just a spoiled girl. She couldn't help it at this moment and said angrily: "This is the Huang family! That hateful Chen An shouldn't be mentioned."
The girl maintained a decent smile and said, "Mr. Chen County should not be evil..."
"His family bullies others with their power..." Mrs. Huang said sharply.
"No, he left his youngest son's family and led the army north, and the enemy in front of him was the Liao army..."
The girl had a sacred look on her face, "More than 50,000 cavalry intercepted the infantry of the Song Dynasty in the plains, which was a crisis that the Song Dynasty had never encountered before... But the Duke of Chen County led his army to defeat the strong with the weak. The defeated enemy was unwilling to give up and launched another night attack in the early morning. That battle... Countless people sacrificed their lives, for the Song Dynasty, for us to sit here and enjoy peace, they fought bloody battles... and defeated the enemy in one battle..."
The petite ladies were silent, feeling a solemn aura flowing.
"The Chen County Public is known as the first general of the Song Dynasty. He commanded the battle as if he was determined and finally defeated the fierce Liao army... Han Xiang personally chased the enemy. The Chen County Public Public led his army to attack Fanyang City and was under the command of the city. How heroic and proud he was!"
Everyone couldn't help feeling excited. Someone let go of the handkerchief and sighed: "The Duke of Chen County is so brave and both civil and military, it is really fascinating!"
The girl's surname is Wang. She looked at Huang Xiaozi and continued, "When she returned to the journey, the Duke of Chen County led his army to break through Laishui. This was the first time in many years that the Song Dynasty had broken through the Liao people's city. Do you know what the Liao people thought? I know a Liao merchant who came to the Song Dynasty to do business. He was at a loss and said that the Da Liao must be panicked... Do you know? This is the power of the Duke of Chen County's battle."
"And you!" The girl looked at Huang Xiaozi with her head raised, "What qualifications do you have to blaspheme the Duke of Chen County? I came here today but I didn't give you a handkerchief, but because I couldn't stand you and the Huang family. In this way, I came to say a few words to Chen County Prince. After saying that, I said goodbye."
Everyone couldn't help but stand up and see him off. The little lady Huang screamed, "Wang Ding'er, no matter how many good things you say to Chen An, he will not look at you more. You are wasting your thoughts..."
The girl turned around and frowned and said, "I never thought that County Duke Chen knew that I was talking to him. I just... I would talk if I couldn't stand it."
She nodded slightly, then turned and left.
Miss Huang was so angry that she hurried to talk to her father.
She ran all the way outside the study and heard someone talking, so she stopped.
"...Langjun, Bianliang City is crazy, and countless people flock to Chen'an's cloth shop. In front of our cloth shop... there is no one anymore, there is no door!"
"It's 20% lower than the market price. Chen An doesn't want to make money anymore? Well? No, he can make money, but he's pitifully small. What's the use of holding that little money?"
"Mr., yes...but he is not short of money!"
"Pooh!"
After a long time, Huang Li's voice came, "Yes! That beast is rich, and it is so rich that he has to cooperate with the royal family and share some benefits, otherwise he will sooner or later be in trouble because he is rich enough to rival the country!"
"But...Langjun, our business is gone!"
Huang Li wanted to scold people, but even more wanted to hit people!
This Chen An is so immoral! He actually used the means of hurting people, who can follow?
"How about we cut the price by 20%?"
"No! There are other people in our business. It doesn't matter if we don't make money. If we don't make money... Langjun, then they will withdraw their shares!"
"grass!"
The gentle Huang Li was angry, "Stay calm, I don't believe he can always sell like this. Besides, we still have the business in the palace, what are we afraid of?"
Mrs. Huang was happy when she heard this and turned around quietly to go back.
...
In the palace, after the meeting was over, Zhao Shu, who was basically silent, suddenly came out of duty and said, "Officials, the palace needs to be purchased a lot of cloth every year, and the local area also pays a lot of tribute... But I heard that local people have complaints about this, so I thought... Now the palace is paying calmly, why not buy them all?"
Han Qi looked at Zhao Xu in shock. He felt that this king was different from the late emperor. If you say saving, he would definitely save. But last time, he ridiculed the ministers for reducing the cost in the palace. He probably felt that the ministers were shameless and asked the royal family to reach out when they had no money.
Why did such a king suddenly understand the arrival of the foreign court?
This is wrong!
Could it be that there is a small plan?
Han Qi returned from Dasheng and was very proud recently, and his voice became much louder. "Why should you worry about this, the king? Now there is some surplus in the Sansi, but it is not enough for the little money in the palace."
Ahem! Sadly, we will definitely not borrow money from the government this year.
Contributions from all over the country formed the small treasury of the officials of the Song Dynasty. In the past, this small treasury was the target of the important officials in the court. Now when he heard Han Qi's words, Zhao Shu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and felt very sad.
I can finally live through this year in peace!
But my son said that all the cloths were purchased...
How many people in the palace are there? Each person has to wear clothes every year, which adds up to a lot!
Isn't my son confused?
The royal family now has tributes from various places as the base, and the dividends from the Anxiang business that has been involved in the shares. Now they are so rich!
Zhao Shu felt much better when he thought about eating roasted lamb at night.
"Is that... enough?"
Alas! Speaking of which, I am really helpless!
Anxiang's dividends were all introduced to the palace in the name of Zhao Xu, and the money was a bit disgusting.
Zhao Xu nodded and said, "It's enough, but the cloth merchant currently supplies the royal family is too cunning and selling it too expensive."
Um?
Zhao Shu frowned and said, "But it is true?"
He looked at Chen Zhongheng, and Chen Zhongheng ran away in a flash. When he came back later, he looked entangled.
"Your Majesty, the Huang family, who supplies cloth to the palace...the cloth in his family was not expensive yesterday, but it has become much more expensive after today."
Zhao Shu said dissatisfiedly: "How did you say this?"
What does it mean to be not expensive yesterday? Does the person surnamed Huang dare to raise the price?
No matter how incompetent the Emperor of the Song Dynasty was, he was not something that a businessman could mess with.
Chen Zhongheng glanced at Zhao Xu and swore that the king must have colluded with Shen An. The two colluded with each other, which was the rhythm of completely ruining the Huang family!
"Your Majesty, the door of the Anxiang Cloth Village is open today..."
"Chen An started another new business?" Zhao Shu smiled and said, "He has been tinkering with Xianglu and Yunchang. I thought he just didn't care so much... It was considered a noble character. Who knew that he had started the cloth shop business again, and he thought he could make money."
That Song Dynasty God of Wealth!
He has money... It seems that I will follow him with money.
Zhao Shu looked at his son, Zhao Xu was very determined and nodded with certainty, saying that if we have members in our family, don’t worry.
Zhao Shu was happy, but when he thought of taking the participants for nothing, he said, "So... that... there is just over 10,000 guan free in the palace. Let Chen Anna go."
Look, I am so fair and just. You can’t say that the royal family has received Chen An’s dividend in vain in the future!
Zhao Xu was trying hard to wink at his father, but Zhao Shu was in a good mood and didn't see it.
So the eyes were vanished.
It’s just that the government openly invests in the stock... It seems that there is no precedent for this?
The Song Dynasty did not suppress business, but the royal family participated in the stake... Is this appropriate?
The ministers were winking and finally calmed down.
It is not easy for the official family to support a large population. Forget it, let’s do it for him. Besides, even if he doesn’t invest, would Chen An not give them dividends?
So the atmosphere became a joyful thing, and the king and his subjects were happy.
Zhao Xu couldn't help it anymore and said, "Officials, I'm thinking, since Anxiang is 20% lower than the market price, then are we..."
Dad, it's 20% cheaper!
There are so many people in the palace, and it adds up to a lot of money.
Zhao Shu frowned and asked, "If it's 20% lower, can he still make money?"
I have only invested 10,000 yuan. If I lose money, how can I explain to the queen when I go back?
Thinking of the queen's bitter face after losing all her money, Zhao Shu felt that she was still impulsive before.
"Can make money." Zhao Xu said confidently: "At present, merchants are very clear about the money they make. Everyone tacitly sells it at the same price. The customers don't know the twists and turns inside, so they all think that they can't make much money, but the fabric industry... can earn more than 20%!"
