Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
Interests can unite two strangers, and interests can also make brothers turn against each other. At the beginning, the merchants of Tokyo were united and looked forward to the head of the Richie, but at this time, these grain merchants finally looked forward to the catastrophe, and the grain they had been hoarding for a long time was not prepared for today. Of course, they didn't realize that the Jin Kingdom wanted to completely destroy the Song Dynasty, so that they did not hesitate to fall out with Li Qi for this.
Li Qi is also a businessman and an official, and he doesn't know whether to evaluate them as smart or stupid, but no matter what it is, he must keep these businessmen synchronized with him, otherwise, this battle will not be able to go on at all. looked at Boss Gu coldly, and smiled secretly, his subordinates were defeated, and they dared to take the lead. "Inappropriate? You still have the face to say this to me, now my Great Song Dynasty is facing a catastrophe, and not only do you not help, but you stab you in the back, is this your way to serve your motherland? You are all not small, why don't you even understand the superficial truth that there are no eggs under the nest. ”
Boss Gu snorted and said: "My Gu family has been in business for decades, I haven't seen any strong winds and waves, and the repeated wars with the Liao State and Western Xia at the beginning, the situation is even worse than today, but we have all survived, and your words can't scare us." He thought to himself, this is not what I took the lead in, everyone used to be like this.
"Survived? I think it's sent all the way, and this kind of time is a godsend for you, and you may want to go to war. Li Qi said.
Throughout the ages, whenever there is a war, there must be a merchant who makes a fortune from the war, and this law is probably second only to the law of conservation of energy.
Gu Lao Dao: "I didn't say that. ”
Li Qi glanced at the group, put his hands together, and said, "Now it seems that no one is willing to cooperate with my Commerce Bureau?" ”
No one made a sound.
"Good, good!" Li Qi laughed a few times and said, "I can be regarded as having done my best to be benevolent, so from now on." This is the end of the relationship between us, and if I do anything in the future, don't blame me, after all, I have informed you in advance. ”
As soon as these words came out, most businessmen trembled in their hearts, Li Qi's methods, they have all seen it, it is really murder without blood.
One person said: "Economic envoy, you are an official, you can't know the law and break the law!" ”
Another person said: "Although you are a member of the third grade." But we are not afraid of you. ”
"I know you're not afraid of me, and I also know that you all have backstage in the court."
Li Qi smiled and nodded, suddenly his face changed greatly, and he slapped the table suddenly, so frightened that everyone couldn't help but stir violently, and shouted angrily: "But Lao Tzu is also scared, since everything has been said about this, I am not afraid to tell you in plain terms, three days." I will give you only three days, and within three days, if the price of grain is not lowered for me, the granary will not be opened. I will use a qiē means to greet you, I will not defeat you one by one, Lao Tzu will not be this economic envoy, just you birdmen. I'll take your place with just a few of them. Could it be that without you, no piece of land would have grown grain, it really gives three points of color. You want to open a dyeing shop. You go and call out those backstage of yours to me, you see me frowning no, TMD, your interests are a p, and the interests of the country are the greatest. Now you all get out of here. Get lost! ”
As he spoke, he jerked his hand towards the door.
Those businessmen are blinded, although Li Qi used to be ruthless, but on the surface he has always been amiable, scolding people with a smile, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a smiling tiger, how could he have such a big temper.
The atmosphere became very awkward.
Those people are not leaving, nor are they staying, and they don't know what to do.
Li Qi shouted: "Come on, give me a stick and blast the crowd out." ”
When those businessmen heard this, they knew that Li Qi was really here, and they were so depressed in their hearts, and regretted that they shouldn't have said it so deadly, and now there was no room for redemption.
"These bastards, the tigers don't wield, they really treat me as a hellokitty." Li Qi snorted and scolded.
Hello Keti? Qin Hui, who was standing on the side, never expected that the scene would be so stiff, but of course he supported Li Qi and said, "My lord, don't be angry." ”
Li Qi was stunned, and said with curiosity on his face: "Do I look like a precursor to a dizziness?" ”
Qin Hui nodded cautiously.
Li Qi smiled and said, "Even you have been deceived, it seems that I performed quite well." ”
Qin Hui sighed and said, "The adults deliberately scared them. ”
"Of course. As for these birdmen, I can be angry, I just say that my mouth is a little dry. Li Qi said as he picked up his cup of tea and drank it down.
Dry mouth? Qin Hui broke out in a cold sweat, this adult is so neurotic, it's unpredictable at all, which one is him or the real him! Qin Hui felt that he was about to split his personality, and said carefully: "My lord, the lower official has a sentence, I don't know whether to say it or not." ”
Li Qi waved his hand and said, "Say it." ”
Qin Hui said: "Since ancient times, whenever there is a war, the price of grain will definitely rise, they these grain merchants hoard grain, just waiting for this day, although the adults you just looked like they were really angry, but the lower officials thought that they still would not give in, maybe the previous examples, let them be afraid of adults, but, at most, this is to let them restrain a little, let the food price slow down the growth, but it is impossible to fall." ”
Li Qi smiled: "I know this, as far as their urine nature, looking forward to the stars and the moon, and finally looking forward to this day, how willing to miss it." ”
"Since you know, why do you still say that, in case, when the time comes." Qin Hui wanted to speak and stopped.
Li Qi ha: "You want to say, if I don't do what I just said by then, then I will also get out of this business bureau." ”
Qin Hui smiled and said, "My lord, they are not easy to mess with, if you want to defeat them, the lower officials think that it is almost impossible." ”
"Don't you think what I just said was to scare them?"
"Isn't it?"
Li Qi rolled his eyes and said, "Of course not, I know that I can't scare them, so why should I scare them." I'm calling this a salute before a soldier, and look, see that I have tamed them all at once, and if I don't stop this now, I won't be able to stop it in the future, MD, don't die at the hands of the enemy, but starve your own people to death, that's really sad. ”
In fact, he had long expected such a day, and he had already thought of tricks to deal with these grain merchants. On a certain level, he actually hopes that those grain merchants will raise the price at the beginning, because this will give him an excuse to play on the topic, otherwise, if he drags it out, he may have nothing to do.
Qin Hui listened to Li Qi's tone, it really didn't seem like he was joking, and he really pinched a cold sweat in his heart for those grain merchants, you really don't have a long memory. It's not good to provoke anyone, but to provoke this madman.
Two days passed quickly.
Sure enough, as Qin Hui expected, the increase in grain prices began to slow down, but it still kept rising.
Profit kills people!
Those businessmen were very jealous of Richie. But in the face of such a big benefit, they are still willing to fight, and they don't believe that Li Qi can defeat them, is there any royal law!
Taishifu.
I saw Cai Jing, Liang Shicheng, Li Bangyan, Cai Juan, Bai Shizhong and others all sitting in it.
These people can be said to be Li Qi's political allies.
Richie stood in the middle. One by one, he said, "I invite you to come here today, because I want to discuss something with you." ”
Cai Jing still has the usual smile on his face now. Distraught, he said casually: "Say it." ”
Li Qi said: "I am very familiar with my predecessors, I believe you also know the character of the next, if it is profitable, you must think of you at the first time, it was in the past, it is now, and it will be in the future." However, at this time, my Great Song Dynasty is facing a catastrophe, I believe that at this time, our interests are absolutely the same, that is, to stop this catastrophe, if my Great Song is good, we will be fine, if it is the Great Song Dynasty, we will never be spared. ”
Cai Jing's face was overjoyed when he heard this, and he hurriedly said, "Do you have a good plan?" ”
Everyone also looked at Li Qi with hope, after all, Li Qi brought them too many miracles.
It's a pity that this time Li Qi shook his head helplessly and said, "Not at the moment." ”
Everyone was disappointed!
"But I think we should be prepared for everything and never allow anyone to undermine our interests," said Rich. ”
Liang Shicheng said: "Needless to say, if anyone dares to cause chaos at this time, our family will not be the first to spare him." ”
He relied on Song Huizong, if Jin Guozhen called, maybe Li Qi and they could still rely on their talents to get the appreciation of the Jin people, but he was an old eunuch with a hairy use, he must be dead, he didn't want the Song Dynasty to collapse like this.
And Li Qi just grasped their psychology and said: "What the hidden phase said is good. However, there is now a group of people who are slowly encroaching on our interests and putting us in danger. ”
Liang Shicheng bounced up directly and said, "Who dares to do this?" ”
Li Qi said: "Yin Xiang usually lives in the palace, maybe he doesn't know that the price of food outside has risen to an unacceptable level, however, this is just the beginning. As soon as the news of the war with the Jin State came out, it has already made people panic, and now the price of food is so rising, sooner or later there will be turmoil, even if there is no chaos, the people have nothing to eat, and what to talk about uniting to resist the enemy, you are all elders, you eat more salt than the rice you eat below, the people take food as the truth, I believe you know more than you know more than below, this people have no food to eat, can they still work for us, if the people's hearts are broken up with my Great Song Dynasty, then, our situation will become very difficult, At that time, internal and external troubles may really cause irreparable consequences, and we have to guard against them. ”
"The price of food!"
Liang Shicheng's eyes were a little evasive, and he sat back again, his face hesitant.
This wood has thousands of acres of small ** fertile land, and it must be one of them. Li Qi said again: "Everyone, this money is inexhaustible, do you have to fight with your own life, I don't think there is a need for this, as long as I am stable, I will have money to earn in the future, why fight for it." ”
Cai Jing nodded and said, "What you said is very reasonable, but even if we reduce the price of grain in our family's grain shop, it will only be a drop in the bucket, and it will not play a role at all, you have a way to stop this grain price from rising." ”
Li Qi said: "I have already thought of a way to do this, and I can do it all in the future, but I just hope that you can secretly give your support." ”
Cai Jing turned his head to Liang Shicheng and asked, "Hidden Phase, what do you think?" ”
Liang Shicheng thought to himself that what Li Qi said was very reasonable, if the Song Dynasty fell, no matter how much money he had, he would not be able to use it, and said, "Then how do you let us support you in secret?" ”
Li Qi said: "It's very simple, it's just that the two don't help each other." ”
Don't help each other? It's too simple. Liang Shicheng said briskly: "Okay." We promise you. ”
He nodded, and Cai Jing and the others all agreed. (To be continued)
