Chapter 597: United Front (2-in-1 Chapter)
Marseille is all about fast, it's exciting.
In the blink of an eye, the long-awaited finals came to an end.
It's so fast that many people can't react.
I saw that the racecourse was empty, but there were still many people sitting around, holding the tickets tightly in their hands, and their eyes were so empty.
None of them expected despair to come so quickly.
For them, perhaps this is a sign that everything is over.
They lost everything, not just all the savings in the family, but probably even their wives and children.
Maybe someone can come back to life with the last fight, but that person will never be you, it will always be someone else.
They have fallen into endless despair.
Many people looked up at the blue sky, and only God could save them.
Perhaps, God has really come!
.....
Over there, Guo Dan got out of the racecourse, and then took a carriage to Nanjing's Yinuoya Hang.
I saw a few sedan chairs parked in front of the Yahang Gate, this Jiangnan lacks horses, mountain roads are the majority, and the carriages are naturally not as much as coming from the north, and more people choose to take the sedan chair when traveling.
"Uncle! There you are. ”
"Hello uncle!"
"Hello uncle!"
When Guo Dan got off the carriage, he was warmly welcomed by the staff of the dental store, some of whom were sent from Beijing, but more of them were recruited from Nanjing, and they were all excited to see this legendary uncle for the first time!
This is a man who took out a million taels!
Moreover, they are the ones who are living the most nourishing life now.
"Hello everyone!"
Guo Dan nodded and said with a smile: "I have already chartered the Golden Jade Building tonight, and none of you are allowed to be absent." ”
There was a burst of cheers.
It is worthy of being an uncle, and it is not ordinary to shoot, you must know that Jinyulou is one of the best restaurants in Nanjing, and with their wages, they may not be able to go to Jinyulou for the rest of their lives.
Guo Dan only exchanged a word or two with them briefly, and then went to the conference room under Kou Yi's guidance.
I saw a few middle-aged people with big bellies sitting in the conference room, and when they saw Guo Dan walking in, a look of surprise flashed in their eyes unconsciously.
"I'm Guo Dan! If it's fake! ”
Guo Dan briefly introduced himself, and then came to the front seat and sat down.
Kou Yi still added: "Ladies and gentlemen, this is my aunt. ”
"Oh... You are Guo Dan! ”
The man on the left immediately snorted angrily.
The rest of the people also glared at Guo Dan angrily.
It's really an enemy who is very red when they meet.
Kou Yi whispered in Guo Dan's ear.
The man who spoke just now was surnamed Sun, his name was He Tian, and he was a large landowner in the south of the city.
And the rest are also very famous wealthy businessmen and big landowners in Nanjing.
Guo Dan nodded and said with a smile: "Judging from your unfriendly eyes, there should be a big misunderstanding between us. ”
"Misunderstanding?"
Sun Hetian snorted: "What misunderstanding? Do you dare to say that our Nanjing is now like this, and it has nothing to do with you? ”
At the beginning of the conversation, the atmosphere was very unpleasant.
How happy to lose so much money.
"Why not?"
Guo Dan sighed twice and said: "Why can you say that I am the same as the winner, I am also a victim, I took out one million taels to save Weihui Mansion, if there is no new tariff law, do I need to spend this money?" ”
A large landowner named Chen Sanyuan said: "We also want to know, why do you want to hurt people with this, and what is the benefit to you?" ”
That's what they hate, you take a million taels out and kill us, how much enmity we have with you!
"You all know that it is not beneficial to hurt others with your own and others, is it such a simple truth, I don't know?"
Guo Dan snorted, changed his words, and said: "This money is important, but it is far less important than life, if I don't save Wei Hui Mansion, then my little life may not be guaranteed!" Think about how it feels to owe hundreds of thousands of taels of taxes to the imperial court. ”
The few big landlords sitting there were a little short of words by Guo Dan.
As if it were .......
I really can't blame Guo Dan.
Guo Dan may be the biggest victim!
Guo Dan coughed lightly: "Everyone, I wanted to come to Nanjing City for a long time, but I didn't dare, because a month ago, many people went to Yangzigou to trouble me. I wonder why you're targeting me, I'm a victim like all of you, why are we killing each other when we're supposed to be on the same front, and if you think about it, isn't it strange? ”
"What's so strange about that?"
Sun Hetian said stiffly: "If it weren't for your Weihui Mansion selling a large number of goods to me in Nanjing, how could this happen." ”
Guo Dan said: "First of all, those goods have little to do with me, they were made by the merchants of Weihui Mansion, and secondly, the goods of the former Weihui Mansion were also sold to Nanjing, and we were all safe at that time. ”
"That's it! Come on! ”
Chen Sanyuan waved his hand and said, "What's the use of talking about this now, what are you inviting us here for?" ”
"It's still useful."
Guo Dan smiled slightly, and said: "We are not enemies, nor are we opponents, we are all victims, we should stand together, work together to solve difficulties, if we still scatter and fight with each other, I can't stand it, and you can't stand it." ”
The fat man with a big belly on Guo Dan's right said: "If we can solve the difficulties, of course we are willing to work together." ”
Sun Hetian also said: "I don't know what tricks Your Excellency has, you can help us solve difficulties, we are willing to take Your Excellency's head as a leader!" ”
There was no sincerity in the tone.
Guo Dan's expression froze, looked left and right, and said with a wry smile: "I came here today to cooperate with you to solve the current difficulties, but I think you are insincere, since this is the case, then I have nothing to say, let you run for nothing today, and I apologize to you here." ”
With that, he arched his hand.
Sun Hetian: They made eye contact.
This is not a good way to go!
After all, they were really in trouble.
Although it is not fatal to them as big landlords, it is certainly good to be able to solve it.
"Your Excellency, if I hadn't been sincere, we wouldn't have come here today, and if there is any offense, I hope Your Excellency can bear with me!" Sun Hetian's tone suddenly softened.
The rest of the landlords also showed their sincerity.
"Since everyone is sincere, I believe that the problem can be solved."
Guo smiled lightly and continued: "The root cause of all this trouble comes from the new tariff law, and we must find a way to get the imperial court to cancel the new tariff law, or at least adjust it." ”
"That being said, but ......." Chen Sanyuan sighed: "But this matter is not something we can say!" ”
Guo Dan said: "But we have to at least make a sound!" ”
"It's happening every day, but when this problem can be solved is not something we can control. I don't even know if I'll make it to that point. ”
"That's right, you don't know, we lent a lot of money some time ago, and now the money is about to be returned."
"Do you borrow money without collateral?"
"There are collaterals, but those collaterals are now burdens."
"Burden?"
"Those collaterals are all workshops, and now our own workshops can't operate, what more do we need from those workshops? Do you use it to pay the city tax to the imperial court? ”
"The government is now staring at this city tax, which has risen a little bit more than before."
"If Your Excellency really helps us, you might as well let the merchants of Weihui Mansion bring some goods here."
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Guo Dan expectantly.
Guo Dan said: "You should have also heard of the system of Weihui Mansion, this is not something I can control, if I cancel the subsidy, it will be tantamount to the death of Weihui Mansion, you should not let me sacrifice myself for others." ”
"That's... So what do you say? Sun Hetian simply threw the question to Guo Dan.
Guo Dan pondered for a while and said, "Most of the problems you are facing at present are because of debt, so let's pay for your debts." ”
"Acquisitions... Buying up our debt? ”
Sun Hetian looked confused.
They live so big, and for the first time they have heard that debt can be acquired?
And this kind of operation?
Guo Dan nodded and said, "What do you think?" ”
Sun Hetian swallowed involuntarily, "This... It's certainly ... It's good, but... But why would you want to do that? ”
If they were to choose, then they would rather let Weihui Mansion ship produce less goods than buy these rotten debts.
They didn't care about the surprise, because they didn't understand it at all.
Guo smiled lightly: "You should also know my methods, those workshops may be some burdens in your opinion, but in my opinion, there is still a place for use, maybe in my hands, I can come back to life."
But I'm not sure about it, after all, there is no such thing as buying and selling, so I will only take out 30% of the money to buy your debts for the time being, and if it succeeds, I will pay off your debts in a year, but if it fails, then we will bear it together. ”
"Sancheng?"
Sun Hetian's expression changed, and he said: "Your Excellency, this transaction is not like this, this hand is paid, the other hand is delivered, you only take thirty percent of the money, and you will buy all our debts, and then what goes wrong, it will not be clear." ”
Guo Dan said: "You can rest assured that we will sign a special debt transfer contract, that is, temporarily transfer the debt to my name for a period of one year, during this year, I will try my best to save those workshops, if you can save it, then this debt transfer contract will automatically take effect, that is to say, your debts will be paid off."
But if I can't save it, I will take out the thirty percent of the money, even if it is the interest paid to you, this matter has nothing to do with me, whether you are forced to pay the debt, or not, then you can do it yourself, at least in this way, you can temporarily reduce your burden, and at the same time, there is hope to get all the principal plus interest. ”
The meaning is very clear, I take 30% of the money to buy a year's debt time.
Of course you can!
Sun Hetian: They were all very impressed by this.
"Okay, we'll promise you."
Chen Sanyuan said very shyly.
The rest of the people nodded their heads as well.
I really don't have anything to say.
If there is this 30% interest, even if those workshops are sold at that time, it is estimated that there will not be much loss.
Guo smiled and said: "Everyone, we pay attention to win-win trading, and we can't let me bear the loss of 30% in vain." ”
Everyone's faces changed.
It turns out that he still has a plan!
"I wonder what your conditions are?" Sun Hetian said very cautiously.
Guo Dan said: "Regarding the conditions, I said before, why things have become like this, the main reason is because of the new tariff law, but because I have received holy grace, it is inconvenient to say anything about it, and no matter how much money I lose, I will admit it, but you ......." ”
"You don't have to worry about that."
Sun Hetian raised his hand and said, "Even if you don't say it, we will resolutely oppose the new tariff law." ”
"I really didn't say anything."
Guo smiled lightly and shook his head.
An hour later.
Guo Dan talked and laughed with them in the conference room.
"Guo Dan, when are you free, come to my house and sit down, I want to thank you for my life."
"Definitely, definitely."
"Guo Dan, when will you go to my workshop and take a walk, point and point."
"Well said! Say! ”
......
The employees of the tooth store were stunned, not long ago, when these employees came in, they were all angry, eager to eat people, just like this for a while, how could they all smile.
The group had just arrived in the hall when they suddenly heard someone shouting outside the door: "You tooth people, Lao Tzu will not let you go." ”
"Ho! With your virtue, you still want to be a ghost? ”
.....
"What's going on?"
Guo Dan frowned slightly.
Kou Yi hurriedly said, "I'll take a look." ”
After a while, I saw two guards with big shoulders and round waists escorting a thin middle-aged man in.
Kou Yi whispered: "Uncle, our people just found out that this person is sneaky on the edge of our tooth shop, so they went up to investigate, you see, this is drawn from him." ”
He took a rusty firewood knife and handed it to Guo Dan.
Guo Dan nodded, glanced at the man, and was about to ask, when he suddenly heard Sun Hetian say: "Isn't this arbitrary?" ”
"Sun... Sun Yuanwai? ”
When the arbitrary man saw Sun Yuanwai, his feet immediately weakened and he fell to his knees.
Guo Dan asked Sun Hetian in a low voice, "Do you know this person outside the staff?" ”
Sun Hetian said: "How can you not know, he was originally a trader, often bought silk from me, at the beginning of the year, borrowed a hundred taels from me to open a dye workshop, and now he can't even pay taxes, let alone pay me back." ”
"I see."
Guo Dan smiled and said to anyone: "Did you hear that Guo Dan came here, so you want to come and die with Guo Dan." ”
Arbitrarily looked at Guo Dan in surprise, "You... How do you know? ”
Guo Dan said: "Except for Guo Dan, there is no one here who is worthy of you to die with him!" Oh, I almost forgot to tell you, I'm Guo Dan. ”
"You... You are Guo Dan. ”
Arbitrarily shocked and angry!
Sun Hetian stood up and said, "You fool, he is your savior!" ”
Said arbitrarily: "Outside, why do you still help him speak, he caused my family to be ruined." Guo Dan, Lao Tzu will not let you go if he is a ghost. ”
Guo smiled and said, "That person is right, you really can't be a ghost for the time being." ”
Sun He was naturally afraid that he would anger Guo Dan, so he hurriedly said: "You are really stupid, Guo Dan has already bought your debts, not only will he give you another year to pay off the debts, but also will help you, if he really has three long and two short, do you think you can run away if you are a ghost?" ”
Anything is immediately stunned.
There was so much information that he couldn't digest it for a while!
Guo Dan said to Sun Hetian again: "Sun Yuanwai, please tell him." ”
Sun Hetian immediately nodded and agreed.
Guo Dan said to them again: "Everyone, you have also seen it, you have to tell those people the news quickly, otherwise, my life will be in danger at any time!" ”
"Your Excellency, please rest assured, we will go back to deal with this matter right now."
"Then there will be labor."
Sun Hetian and the others immediately left Qianzhuang with arbitrariness.
After they left, Kou Yi said: "Uncle, why don't we buy them all, anyway, there is a lot of silver in the bank, buy a thirty percent, I am afraid that there will be a moth when the time comes, these people are very cautious." ”
Guo smiled lightly: "First of all, we have to leave a sum of money to prepare for the next plan." Second, I'm going to buy it all, and what are we going to do if those people pay me a debt? When it comes to debt collection, we are far inferior to them! It's worth paying 30% of your money, getting a good debt, and getting a bunch of people who do the dirty work. When will the next batch arrive. ”
"Three o'clock in the afternoon."
"Wow! What an auspicious time! Fortunately, I am armed with a knife. ”
......
West!
"Quick! Hurry up! ”
I saw a man eagerly whipping a little donkey, urging it to hurry up, the little donkey was also very aggrieved, his body was weak, and there was not only a pair of mother and son sitting on the car, but also a lot of luggage, how could this be fast!
"It's all your fault, there is only a little money left at home, and you have to lose."
The little lady in the car was crying and complaining.
"I also want to fight, anyway, this horizontal and vertical is death, how do I know that I will carry it like this." The man said with great annoyance.
"Zhang Sanfa."
Suddenly, I heard a shout from behind.
The man named Zhang Sanfa looked back and saw a short and fat man chasing after him with three or five idlers, and immediately cried bitterly: "This is a bad day! Why did you catch up like this? ”
"Stop! Stop. ”
"Hurry up, hurry up! Oops! Why did you stop. ”
I don't know if the little donkey has become a sperm, not only is it not happy, but it stops.
Hit me?
You are asking me now, and you are still beating me?
After a while, the fat man chased after him with someone.
"I said Zhang Sanfa, are you deaf, hey, you really ran to death."
The fat man was panting for breath while pointing at Zhang Sanfa and scolding.
Zhang Sanfa stood in front of his wife and children, who were already crying, and said: "I borrowed the money, if you want to arrest me, don't arrest my wife and children." ”
"Who's going to arrest you."
The fat man snorted angrily: "I came to tell you that your debts can not be repaid for the time being." ”
Zhang Sanfa was immediately stunned, "You... What did you say? Can... Can I not pay it back? ”
"You want to be beautiful, but I don't want you to return it for the time being."
The fat man snorted: "I don't know what kind of luck your kid is going, he can't die, go back, go back." Let's talk as we go. ”
Zhang Sanfa looked at the fat man very cautiously.
He didn't believe it.
The fat man snorted, "Do you think you can still run?" ”
......
Suzhou.
Caojia Tea House.
This tea house was opened by a Jin merchant named Cao Fei.
"Oops! It's Brother Liu who is here, rare guest! Rare guest! ”
Cao Fei said to a middle-aged man who had just entered the door.
The man surnamed Liu gently patted his big belly and said with a smile: "Brother, you are really not interesting!" ”
Cao Fei was surprised: "What do you say? ”
"I've heard that someone recently bought your debts."
"Hehe......!"
"What? Still want to hide it from my brother? ”
"How can you, on this one-third of an acre of land, what can you hide from you, brother! Let's say it inside, say it inside. ”
.....
"What do you say? How is this possible, and why did Guo Dan do this? ”
The man surnamed Liu looked at Cao Fei in surprise.
Cao Fei said in a low voice: "Brother, it's just you and me here, I won't hide it from you, of course Guo Dan is not so kind, he did this for two reasons, the first is that he thinks those workshops can still come back to life." ”
"Even so, what's in it for him?"
"Brother, listen to me first."
Cao Fei said: "The second reason is that Guo Dan actually doesn't like the new tariff law very much, but he has always been taken care of by His Majesty, so it is inconvenient to say anything about it, so he ..... Guo Dan hopes that we can shout two sentences. ”
"It turns out that Guo Dan can't stand it, I heard a few days ago that this new tariff law is very beneficial to him."
"Hi... He had no choice but to take the money out and put it on the cushion, as if it was to repay the grace of God, but he was rich and could afford to lose this money, plus the merchants of Weihui Mansion also supported it, this money has come and gone, but we can't afford to lose it. ”
"That's, that's. So that's the case, I also have a debt in my hand, you see if I can ...... it. ”
"Then I don't know Brother Liu, are you willing to say a few words."
"What's not to want to do here, I've always been against it!"
"Okay, I'll get you in touch."
"But I'll leave it to my brother."
......
Willing to spend money on these dying debts, the process is naturally quite smooth.
At the beginning, Guo Dan took the initiative to buy, but later, everyone came to ask Guo Dan to buy.
Soon, Guo Dan swept away Nan Zhili's debts.
This also let the Nanjing businessman know that Guo Dan's wealth is bottomless, he just threw out a million taels over there, and he is such a big deal here, how much money does he have?
At the same time, the voice of opposition to the new tariff law is also growing louder and louder.
These big landlords and wealthy businessmen all have a great say in Jiangnan, and now there are people pushing behind, and their actions are more consistent.
It's even louder.
And they also directly affected Shilin, because many people in Shilin were their relatives, and some people in Shilin also turned their guns and attacked the new tariff law.
Of course, there are also some people who support the new tariff law, after all, Shen Shixing and Wang Xijue are both Jiangnan people!
The Nanjing government did not like the new tariff law in the first place, and of course they were willing to comply with the people's will, so they maintained close contact with the officials in the capital and constantly pressured the cabinet to repeal the new tariff law.
Not only that, but they also secretly encouraged businessmen to storm the banknotes, and the pressure on each banknote gate was also increasing day by day.
Some customs officials or tooth people couldn't bear the pressure and ran away.
This cabinet-led change is already in jeopardy.
PS: Today the community received a notice that the power outage will start tomorrow from the morning, saying that it will be called at six o'clock in the afternoon, but who knows, so I will code tomorrow tonight, and I will also send it together, a total of 6,000 words, and there will be no tomorrow afternoon.
I know I've had a lot of readers asking me to break out lately.
Actually, I want to explode too, and it's best to write it in one sitting, but I can't really explode.
Because this climax is actually a foreshadowing, involving a lot of later plots, the recent update is not on time, also because I have been revising.
I can't write too fast, because if I miss something, it will look very abrupt later in the future.
