Chapter 290(1/2)
The Jiangnan Mint was taken away. Although it was strictly confidential to the outside world, the news still spread like wildfire.
The underground black market in the entire Jinling City was panicked.
Many people take advantage of this business to make money, make money overnight, go to various high-end places, spend a lot of money, comparable to a god-making fortune.
Kong Lao Er was quite sad. He was originally a third-level agent and had just replaced Lan Qi as a first-level agent. He wanted to do something big, but before his butt was still hot, the news came that the Jiangnan Foundry Bureau was being exposed. He became dazed and hid at home all day and did not dare to go out, for fear that the next moment, the government would rush in and capture him.
But after a few days, there was no movement. When he went out to inquire with a few colleagues, it turned out that the court had no action, so his mind became lively again. He still had some inventory under his command, so he had to find a way to disperse it, after all, he invested all his old capital in it.
Although Kong Laoer is rough, his mind is delicate.
Even if you lose money, you must stop the loss in time.
At this moment, several leading brothers in the black market issued a notice to hold a meeting, asking agents at all levels to go to Heishui City to discuss and recycle the inventory they had in their hands at a price of 100 yuan. Although they purchased the goods at a price of 300 yuan, at this time, no one except a few big dealers were shipped.
It is probably because they took the opportunity to recycle goods, stock up on goods, and wait for the limelight to come and find ways to put them on the market.
While he was hesitating whether to go, Fan Xiaodao, dressed in Hu merchants, came to the door.
When Kong Laoer saw him, he thought that it was not a better choice than selling it to those big brothers, so he smiled and welcomed him in, "Brother Hu, I haven't seen you for several days, I feel like you are refreshed."
Fan Xiaodao laughed, "Thank you the second brother Kong, the first batch of goods, our boss is very satisfied. He has bought a large amount of goods in Zhejiang, but the other party didn't notice it at all. He ordered me to discuss the next batch of goods again. I originally wanted to find Uncle Qu, but their people said that Uncle Qu had something to go to Hangzhou. The matter was too urgent. Our boss was going back to the Western Regions at the end of the month. I was wondering if Brother Kong could help and think of a solution."
Kong Laoer thought to himself, this kid is afraid he doesn't know the Jiangnan Mint Bureau is being punished. It is estimated that the second boss has run away long ago, and this kid is fooling me. However, he said, "Thank you the second boss's blessing, our business has been doing well these days. How much more goods have you purchased?"
Kong Lao Er still has tens of millions of dollars in his hand. He bought it from the second-level agent at a price of 400 taels. Since he is here to be the sucker, he should make good use of this.
Fan Xiaodao said: "Our boss wants to do a big vote!"
“How big is it?”
Fan Xiaodao stretched out three fingers.
"Three hundred taels?"
Fan Xiaodao shook his head, "Thirty thousand taels!"
What? Thirty thousand taels? Kong Laoer almost refused to believe his ears. Thirty thousand taels of silver can buy 100,000 yuan of iron and tin at the price of a first-level agent. Now the entire underground black market in Jinling is probably not that much inventory in his hands.
However, there is no business in the world that cannot be done.
Keep him steady first.
"So big?"
Fan Xiaodao said: "We are sought in danger!"
He lowered his voice and smiled, "I want to hide it from my second brother, there are five thousand taels of mine in it, but I have all my belongings."
Kong Laoer said, "It's easy to say, it's easy to say. However, there's something I have to tell you. This time it may not be shipped at the last price."
Fan Xiaodao's face froze, "How many?"
Kong Laoer said: "Thousands of texts are four hundred and fifty coins."
"Why is it so much expensive all of a sudden?"
Kong Laoer said, "A good thing is of course expensive. Our goods are of course of quality and imitation. Unless they are specially identified, they cannot be noticed. Moreover, business has been very good recently and the supply is in short supply, so the price will naturally rise."
Fan Xiaodao said: "It's a bit outrageous."
"Think about it, if you can buy 1,000 yuan for 450 cents, it is a sure profitable deal. However, Brother Hu, I can apply to the above. The 5,000 taels you paid out of your own pocket and the price was still at the last time. What's the matter? You have to do your job as your boss."
Fan Xiaodao thought for a while, "Our boss is in the city. I'll go back now and report to the boss and I'll give you news in the afternoon."
Kong Laoer said: "Then hurry up, otherwise there might not be so many goods!"
After Fan Xiaodao left, Kong Laoer didn't say anything and quickly prepared the horse and contacted the third-level agents to discuss inventory. As for the first-level and second-level agents, he did not have the courage. Although he replaced Lan Qi, it has not officially announced that he has not established his own network of relationships. However, after contacting several companies, he can get up to 10,000 hangs, and there is still a lot of gap between 100,000 hangs.
In the afternoon, Fan Xiaodao brought news, "I did a great job and our boss agreed to the price. We agreed that my five thousand taels will be three hundred in a thousand."
Kong Lao Er laughed, "Even if I pay for it, I can't ruin our friendship, right?"
"The goods are urgent. Second brother, when will the goods be delivered?"
Kong Laoer said, "You want so much at once, I have to contact you. Otherwise, we have an internal meeting tomorrow, why don't you go together?"
Fan Xiaodao laughed in his heart. The reason why he opened such a big mouthful was that he expected that you would not get so many goods. He was waiting for your words, so he said with ease, "Okay, one word is certain."
...
The next day, Fan Xiaodao and Gu Dachun came to Kong Laoer's house together.
Kong Laoer had already prepared the carriage and the three of them went to Heishui City together.
Heishui City, located in the east of the city, is an underground black market in Jinling City, which is somewhat similar to Guifanlou in the capital.
Jinling City is poor in the east and expensive in the west. This Heishui City is located in the slums of Jinling, with mixed fish and dragons inside. It is said that it can get all kinds of rare things. It is also the place where the thieves and beggars sell stolen goods on weekdays. The leader is a one-eyed person, nicknamed as Diao Chan. Even Kong Laoer doesn't understand why he named a brothel woman.
Saidi Chan is a low-key person, but she is cruel and ruthless, and there are many lawsuits under her command.
Sai Diaochan has dominated Heishui City all year round, and the Hei and White Domain will sell his face. Even the big gangs like the Cao Gang and the Dajiang Gang will sell a little face in front of such local snakes.
The meeting was held in a small black room in the black market.
As soon as you enter the door, the three big words "Zhongyitang" are written on it, with dragons flying and phoenix dancing, which is obviously written by a famous artist.
Kong Laoer was familiar with this place. He was originally a gangster. Although he was in charge of the Confucius Temple area, he still had to listen to Saidi Chan's orders in name. In the small black room, there was a large round table and ten chairs. Apart from that, there was nothing, and torches were lit around him.
Everyone greeted Kong Laoer when they saw him.
When he saw Fan Xiaodao and Gu Dachun, he looked unhappy and asked, "Kong Laoer, why did you bring a stranger here?"
When Kong Lao Er saw that this person was Gui Qijiao, a gangster in Xuanwu Street, he had never fought for him for the territory of Confucius Temple with him. He had always been very dissatisfied with him, so he had no good expression on Gui Qijiao, "Gui Qi, did you call Kong Lao Er?"
"If you don't call you Kong Laoer, you still call you Kong Erye?"
Kong Lao Er snorted coldly, "After Master Lan Qi has passed, I will take over his seat. This is the arrangement of Qu Erdong's family. Are you dissatisfied?"
Gui Qijiao said, "What are the second bosses and the third bosses? In Jinling City, I only recognize Diao Chan Sai's eldest brother. I'm afraid the second bosses you mentioned have already run away, right?"
Bang!
At some point, he slapped Gui Qijiao in the face. Gui Qijiao was a fool. He was beaten for no reason and scolded him, "Which bastard dares to beat me?"
Turning back, I saw Saidi Chan standing in front of me, her eyes cold and she was staring at him tightly.
Gui Qijiao whispered: "Sai Ye!"
Saidi Chan said coldly, "In Heishui City, no one must be rude to the second boss!"
Gui Qi wanted to flatter Saidi Chan, but he didn't expect to film the donkey's hoof, covered his face, and took two steps back, "Yes, Yes, Saidi is right."
Sai Diaochan looked at the two of them with one eye, as if she wanted to see through them, and asked, "Kong Laoer, who are these two?"
Kong Laoer quickly introduced, "Justice Sai, this is our God of Wealth!"
"God of Wealth?"
"This person's surname is Hu, and he is a uncle and nephew of Qu Erdong's family. He placed the order of 5,000 taels not long ago. Brother Hu found me yesterday and wanted to get a large batch of goods. I didn't have enough authority, so I took his own initiative and brought him over and introduced him to Saiye."
Originally, Kong Lao Er thought about taking the order privately, but his ability was limited and he could not take the order at all. Moreover, he would have to work in Jinling in the future. It would be better to be a favor and introduce it to Saisai Diao Chan. After all, Lan Qi is dead and his position has not yet been firmly settled. If the deal is formed, it would be considered a great contribution. It would be much easier to replace Lan Qi with Saisai Diao Chan and take the seventh position.
Sai Diaochan's face was slightly relaxed, "It turns out that he is an old customer, so he will be very happy to receive him. I wonder how much goods are needed?"
"Thirty thousand taels, the silver is in stock!"
When Saidi Chan heard this, her one eye flashed with a bright light.
Originally, apart from the dispersed goods, the first, second and third-level agents still had a large amount of inventory in their hands. After the Mint Incident, Saidichan discussed with several other leaders, thinking that the goods could not be smashed into their hands, so he thought of taking back the goods from agents at all levels at the price of 10%, to avoid the limelight, and to avoid being found by the government, and to stock up on the other hand, it was also considered as stocking up. In the future, I found a meeting today to discuss the matter, and by the way, I would like to remind everyone not to talk nonsense outside.
Now that there are big buyers coming to the door, it directly solves their worries!
Sai Diaochan laughed and came up to hold Fan Xiaodao's hand, "Brother Hu, you came in time!"
Fan Xiaodao said, "That price..."
Saidi Diao Chan was about to speak, but Kong Lao Er quickly interrupted and took the lead, "I applied with Sai Ye, so I will pay 450,000 ounces of 1,000 ounces, and your own 5,000 taels will still maintain the original price, right, Sai Ye?" While saying that, he kept his Fan Xiaodao on his back and winked at Sai Diao Chan frequently.
When Saidi Chan heard this, she was secretly happy.
Unexpectedly, Kong Lao Er, who is a big, thick and a rash man, suddenly became so active in his little head? He originally had a price of 300 yuan, but he talked about 45 yuan. He made more 15 yuan with tears in his eyes. He whispered, "Originally, he wanted 45 yuan, but for the sake of being an old customer, he was the nephew of Qu Erdong's family. We asked you for 50 yuan for every 100 yuan, and it would be fine!"
Fan Xiaodao shook his head and lowered his voice, "Don't let me do a good job with my boss, so I will count on 45, and the extra fifty will be added to 21 and 50, and we will divide it together."
Sai Diaochan laughed, "It's still Brother Hu who can do business, even his boss's money is profitable."
Fan Xiaodao smiled bitterly, "It's all workers, you can make money."
"It's decided!" Sai Diao Chan said, "But now, the goods are a little nervous. Today is just about to have a meeting, and agents at all levels are here. We will work together to help you get together!"
...
"Everyone is here, now we have a meeting!"
Although it was a round table meeting, the hierarchy here was still very strict. Headed by Sai Jinhua, the big shots in the entire Jinling underworld sat on the round table. As for the helmsman, the hall master at the entrance of the hall, that is, the second and third-level agents, there was no chance to sit at all. They stood in the second and third rows according to the ranks of superiority.
Kong Lao Er was also standing obediently in the outermost row.
Sai Jinhua pointed to an empty chair opposite, "A few days ago, Master Lan Qi was caught off guard and suddenly died suddenly. Before the meeting began, everyone stood up and observed a moment of silence for Master Lan Qi."
Lan Qi was killed by Qu Moucai because of offending Qu Moucai. Not many people knew about this, and the publication was that they died of a disease.
Everyone finished their silence.
