Zhao Hao and Tang Youde got into the carriage and prepared to enter the city through Qingliangmen.

"Childe, at what price shall we buy silk?"

In the carriage, Tang Fat asked with a wicked smile on his face.

He can fully imagine what kind of mood and expression Liu Yuanwai, who has more than 100,000 catties of raw silk, will be at this moment.

"What does the contract say?" Zhao Hao asked rhetorically, he was busy accompanying the exam for a while, and he forgot these details.

"September 18." Tang Fatzi is familiar with it.

"Yes, this is still a day I specially picked." Zhao Hao slapped his forehead and said with a sudden smile: "Isn't there more than twenty days left, what's the hurry?" ”

"It's just, what's the hurry?" Tang Fatzi saw the same thing, nodded and smiled: "After more than 20 days, the price of silk still doesn't know where it has fallen!" ”

"Anyway, it's not us who are in a hurry now." Zhao Hao said with an underwhelming expression: "It is estimated that Liu Yuanwai has already looked for us in the city." ”

"That's natural, he can't sit still if the price of silk doesn't rise before." Tang Youde thought deeply and said, "Looking for us like you're not crazy now?" ”

"I'm going to go to Kokura Mountain to escape the summer, and if he looks for you, you'll push things on me."

Zhao Hao looked at Xiaocang Mountain not far away, and said in his heart This is really a good place, so close to Qingliangmen and Jiangdong Wharf, I should build a conference hall here.

"If he looks for me, you just say you don't know, anyway, the deadline is not enough, I won't show my head."

"Listen to Childe." Tang Youde saw that he was going to make another big vote, and he was naturally overjoyed.

A few families are happy and a few are sad, some laugh and some cry.

Two days later, in the water pavilion of the Suzhou Guild Hall, Liu Yuanwai had already smashed everything he could smash.

The anger was followed by endless remorse and pain.

Liu Yuanwai sat on the Taishi chair, looking at the craggy rockery outside the water pavilion with blank eyes, eager to hit it headlong.

"I'm so stupid, really, knowing that Xu Ge is always in the background of those people, how can I believe that the price of silk will rise......"

"I'm so stupid, really, knowing that kid is not at ease, how can I promise him to borrow silk for repayment......"

He muttered to himself, slapped himself at the same word, and half of his face was swollen.

The subordinates and worshippers were all silent, bowing their heads and standing outside the water pavilion, and none of them dared to speak out......

This time, the owner's losses were too heavy. More than 100,000 catties of silk smashed in the warehouse and couldn't be sold, and in just a few days, it had already lost 50,000 taels.

What's even more terrifying is that under the panic, all rational and gentlemanly agreements no longer exist. All chambers of commerce are frantically selling, but no one is willing to take this plate, and the price of silk is still falling.

If it goes on like this, it will lose 20,000 taels a day, even if the owner is worth millions, he can't bear this fall.

As for the fact that the owner lent the silk at the highest price and asked the family to return the silk after three months, no one dared to mention it. This has become a big joke in the Jinling business community!

Liu Zhengqi, the president of the dignified Suzhou Chamber of Commerce and known as a shrewd man, was actually handled so clearly by a fledgling Huizhou boy and played so miserably!

The so-called 'drilling the sky and Dongting are all over the place', Su merchants and Hui merchants are the two major business gangs that do not like each other, and the raw silk and silk business has always been controlled by the Dongting business gang, and the Hui merchants will definitely exaggerate this matter when they seize the opportunity, to prove that the Hui merchants are stronger than the Su merchants!

This will be a devastating blow to Liu Yuanwai's dream of competing for the next chairman of the Dongting Business Gang.

After sitting for a long time, Liu Yuanwai gritted his teeth and stood up with the crescent armrest of the Taishi chair, and hissed and ordered: "Prepare the car, go to the street outside the Drum Tower!" ”

The plummeting price of silk is beyond his control, and he now has to do what he can control - let Tang Youde immediately return the silk, or pay back the money!

Tang Ji South Store.

When the shopkeeper's report to Liu Yuanwai asked to see him, Tang Fatzi was taking his son to inventory in the warehouse.

"Don't you see I'm busy? Let him wait. ”

Tang Fatzi dropped a sentence and continued to do his work.

He had to quickly sort out a clue and let his son take over as soon as possible, so that he could take time off to preside over Kokurayama's stall.

But Liu Yuanwai is determined this time, and he must see Tang Fatzi.

He waited in the store for a whole afternoon, and when it was dark, the guy had to close, but Liu Yuanwai still didn't leave.

There was no way, Tang Fat had to come out to see him.

The two have been playing Tai Chi for several days, and there is nothing polite to say.

"Isn't there more than 20 days left, what are you anxious about?" Tang Youde sat down on the main seat and said angrily.

"What's the hurry?!" Liu Yuanwai jumped to his feet when he heard this, and shouted loudly: "After more than 20 days, I don't know where the price of silk has fallen!" ”

"It's useless for you to cut your throat? We businessmen are based on faith and have to act according to the contract. Tang Youde covered his ears with a look of disgust. How can there be a little daughter-in-law when borrowing silk?

"You don't come to this set!" Liu Yuanwai didn't care about the image at all, stepped on the official hat chair, pointed at Tang Fatzi and shouted: "Are you embarrassed to say Xinyi?" You were a liar in the first place, where is your workshop? Bought a loom? Hired a worker? ”

"Hired, bought, and opened. It's just not in Nanjing. Tang Youde spread his hands and played tricks.

"Fart!" Liu Yuanwai's forehead was bruised, he rolled up his sleeves, and said with a posture of wanting to beat someone: "You sell it!" ”

Tang Youde is taller and fatter than Liu Yuanwai, and he also practiced boxing and kicking when he was a businessman, and when he saw this, he also stood up, pulled the hem of his robe into his belt, and sneered: "I signed a contract with you to borrow silk, do you care if I sell it or use it?" If you don't believe it, take out the contract and take a look, there is a word on it, I must start the yard, can't sell silk? ”

"I don't care, today you either pay back the money or the silk!" Liu Yuan pounced on Tang Fatzi like a crazy tiger, and roared in his mouth: "Otherwise, I will fight with you!" ”

"Come on, who's afraid of whom!" Tang Youde also put on a posture and wanted to practice with Liu Yuanwai.

Fortunately, the entourage on both sides rushed up in time to separate the two owners, which prevented a hand-to-hand fight.

At this time, Tang Ji's men also rushed up and pushed Liu Yuanwai and a few people out of the store.

"The surname is Tang, you wait, I'll go to the county to sue you!" Liu Yuanwai was still jumping up there and shouting: "You, and that bastard boy, wait for the lawsuit!" ”

"Who's afraid of whom." Tang Youde waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "Close the store!" ”

~~

Liu Yuanwai was kicked out of Tang Ji, and in a fit of rage, he immediately drove straight to Shangyuan County.

Although it was already dark at this time, the yamen had long since closed. However, Liu Yuanwaitang, the president of the Suzhou Chamber of Commerce, the vice president of the Dongting Business Gang, and the donor from the Wupin Wailang, if he wants to see a small Shangyuan Zhi County, he still doesn't need to look at the time.

At this time, Lord Zhang of Shangyuan Zhi County was having dinner with the two-room concubine.

Mr. Zhang is a Dongguan, a native of Sichuan, who was born in an old man, and it took more than ten years to make this Shangyuan Zhi County, which is not a person and a ghost. Of course, if it weren't for the fact that there were not only direct superiors like Ying Tianfu in the county, but also a full set of civil and military teams in Nanjing, as well as seven or eight guards, more than a dozen military camps, and a number of noble mansions, it would not be his turn to be an old man to come to Jinling City to enjoy the blessings of the flowery world.

Zhang Zhixian is in his sixties, and he has been widowed for many years and has not been able to continue the strings. But after coming to Shangyuan County as a county magistrate for two years, he has already taken two concubines, and is talking about the third room, all of them are young and beautiful Jiangnan girls......

After all, this is Nanjing City, no matter how many mothers-in-law there are, as long as he, the magistrate, is willing to be idle, he still has a lot of money.
