Chapter Thirty-Eight

"Destiny?"

When he heard this word from Li Desheng's mouth, Lao Zhang smiled, "The sky is not afraid, even Li Fengjie knows about things, why does the brother say it over and over again?" ”

Lao Li frowned slightly: "How many people died in the 'sugar market'?" If there is a 'silk reeling production book', but all Suchang, Bashu, and Jingxiang weavers are afraid of losing overnight. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoThis time, it's not just sugar, it's raw silk, it's silk. ”

"The inner government actually controls three or four percent of the sugar market, isn't it?"

"Everyone in Xinnan City knows about this matter, but they don't dare to speak out. At the beginning, the emperor was short of money, this is the emperor's money bag, who dares to make a mistake? ”

"Who says no one dares to make a mistake?"

Zhang De took a deep breath and looked at Li Desheng: "This time, we will fight the emperor." ”

"Sugar production must have a 'production cost', how can there be extra sugar? This is not food, it grows out of the ground. ”

"Who says there's no extra sugar? The palaces and court supervisors in Chang'an have a relationship with the inner government, and how much can they cover according to the market price of the property in their hands? Have you counted? ”

"It's not high, but it's not low. Don't forget, the price of sugar will not go down for a while. ”

"Again, as long as there is extra sugar, and there is no need for 'production capital' to prepare, then I will give two Beijing and three million people a pound of sugar each, what should I do?"

"This ......"

Lao Li's mind was running fast, "Could it be that the plantation you opened up in Liuqiu or Jiaozhou has already produced sugar?" However, even if there are three million catties, once they change hands, they will be net profits. ”

"Really? Who gave him the transport? If Luoyang really hoarded three million catties of sugar, the inner government would not only have a share in the 'sugar market'. He also took the money to buy at least 700,000 yuan of white sugar in the amount of 'production capital' at the market price in June last year, and smashed 3 million catties of white sugar into it, and the 'sugar market' in Xinnan City, Luoyang, the price of sugar was smashed to half...... Hey, everyone has given the sugar to the inner government, doesn't he know how to market? Watching them sell slowly, maybe they will return to their original cost? ”

Half of the sugar price is equivalent to a loss of 350,000 yuan at that time, but maybe it is only half? If it was really three million catties of sugar piled up in Luoyang. If the logistics industry is not running well, it will be able to make Luoyang white sugar as cheap as mud at that time.

The emperor's royal white gloves in the inner house, greedily bought the sugar in the forehead of the "production capital" in the early stage, wanting to eat a fat man in one bite, and even wanting to eat alone. They invested a huge amount of money in the redemption alone, and even took the Shandong clan such as Qinghe Cui's Wuchengfang to bet.

Chasing the rise and killing the fall, Guan Zhong has been playing for more than a thousand years.

It's just that Lao Zhang has the extra sugar at hand, and he really has it. This white sugar can be called "imported", at least this piece of white sugar, is legal. And everyone knows that Tianzhu frosting is gray with yellow, not very white. So these Tianzhu frostings, not to mention selling them at will, the city tax is just like that.

As long as there are no mistakes in the records of the Guanshi Rongchang, these white sugar from "thousands of miles of stone ponds" are "imported". Whether it is called Tianzhu Frosting or Gouda White Sugar, these white sugars are not only legal, but also outside the "production capital" quota.

It's just that......

"This is tantamount to robbing the money of the inner government and the emperor's money."

"So, do the people of Luoyang have the guts?"

Zhang De looked at Li Desheng.

Lao Li shook his head slowly: "It's useless, the rats have no heart." ”

"But there are people who do have the guts......"

Zhang De took a deep breath, "The products produced in Jiaozhou are transferred and sold by Feng and Xian, and Feng and Xian are out of the matter and do not want to be contaminated with Jiaozhou sugar." Therefore, it was the Bohai Gao clan who received this batch of Jiaozhou sugar, and also named the 'Six Edicts' sugar, and gathered in the Ryukyu Kingdom. ”

"Hiss......"

Some of the marginal areas of Jiaozhou have a strong nature of local autonomy, and they often do not collect taxes, but get something every year, in the name of "Tugong", and go to the master of Chang'an to give a big gift to the master of Chang'an like a vassal country.

As for the "Six Edicts", it is indeed a subject country, not the territory of the Tang Dynasty. If the Bohai Gao clan really got a large amount of "Six Edicts" sugar, and in last year's sugar production incident, they maliciously sold it to the amount of white sugar that the inner government could control, then this year's white sugar price smashed to the floor, which is a real robbery of the emperor's money.

One Bohai Gao clan is not enough, far from enough.

"Xu Guogong, do you have the audacity?"

Lao Zhang smiled, didn't answer, and said, "When did you ask the natives to clean up?" When Shan Dao was really the leader of the 'Dongfeng Fleet', where should you do things? In the north and south of Liuqiu Island, there is a port each, and there are more than a dozen sugar cane orchards in each. ”

"Shan Dao is really after Shan Xiongxin, presumably with his father's friendship, at least Li Jingyang's family must be maintained."

Li Jingyang is Li Zhen, and Li Ji is still called Xu Shiji, how can there be no friendship?

Pulling his fingers, Lao Li still shook his head: "It's still not enough." ”

"Lu, Yu, Yao, Zhou, Sun, Zhu, Jianghuai and Jiangdong's six families, last year's high price changed hands to the inner government with peace of mind, and now they have eaten low-priced sugar, and they have never been frightened. You know, Yu Chang was still the ambassador of Suzhou before. ”

"In this way, I can compare my strength with the emperor."

Lao Li pondered for a while, "In this way, the 'silk reeling capital' is only afraid that it will be unresolved, and the so-called rat bogeyer is like this." White sugar is small, but silk reeling is big. ”

"But our majesty, can endure this breath?"

"So, it's still going to be dead."

"And there are a lot of deaths, but who dies must be carefully considered."

Li Desheng said suddenly: "The dead are not afraid, if the dead can be exchanged for some benefits, then it is meaningless to die." ”

"Last year, the sugar market made history to be recommended by the Luoyang Sugar Family, and it was said that there was filial piety at the time, and now it is white sugar. The emperor wants to use foreign officials to gag people's mouths, and this time, there may be more than foreign officials. ”

"Selling officials and selling knights, I'm afraid it won't work."

"When it comes to promotion, there is a recommendation and a promotion. Zai Fu is still recommended, not to mention the market officials? ”

"Hmm......"

Lao Li fell into contemplation again, he was good at people's hearts, and after a while, he said: "If the emperor moves the capital, Luoyang will have a huge room of wealth and goods, and it will become a climate." ”

To move the capital, it is necessary to abandon the original forces of Chang'an and buy the new forces of Luoyang. But how to buy it? What the emperor can give, the Shandong scholars can not only give, but also give more.

But there is one thing, the Shandong scholars will not let it, the local governance power, the imperial power is not in the countryside, let alone the economic generation? However, the emperor can use foreign officials as bait, and someone will take the bait.

"The matter should be started on both sides at the same time, Luoyang is responsible for the dead, and Chang'an is responsible for the plan."

Zhang De said to Li Desheng, "Zai Fu and important ministers, if you promote this matter, there should be a report." ”

Li Desheng, who was thoughtful, thought about it and looked up at Zhang De: "If the establishment of the 'production capital' in each city is recommended by the local family, it should not be a loss." ”
