Sending Huang Zichang away, Yi Zhi, who returned to the study, felt relaxed and gave the Tea Industry Association a great favor, naturally with his own wishful thinking, how much silver this favor is worth is still unknown, but it firmly tied the Tea Industry Association and Yuan Qi and the Thirteen Lines together, and then the strangulation of the Shunde silk merchants, the Tea Industry Association is the main force, there are huge interests, and I am not afraid that the tea merchants will not do their best.

In addition, in this way, it will be able to greatly reduce the loss of the tea merchants, which is equivalent to indirectly reducing the losses of the money village, the tea collapse, the loss of the tea merchants is large, and the loss of the money village lent to the tea merchants is not small, and the reduction of the loss of the tea merchant is also equivalent to the reduction of the loss of the money village.

In addition, this move will help the Tea Industry Association to support a group of powerful tea merchants. After the outbreak of the war, the Qing Dynasty was forced to trade with five ports, Guangzhou lost its status as a mouthful of trade, and the Thirteen Banks also lost their monopoly on foreign trade.

As for whether the Thirteen Lines can continue to monopolize the tea trade in the future, it depends on the expansion speed of Yuanqi and whether the Thirteen Lines and the merchants of the Thirteen Lines are united, of course, through this matter, Yuanqi and the Thirteen Lines will leave a deep impression and an excellent reputation on the tea merchants, which is very important for him to Yuanqi for the future development of the Thirteen Lines, at least to lay a good foundation for future cooperation.

He clearly knows the direction of history, and he has to take a long-term view, as for how to explain the thirteen lines, the net profit of a load of tea and four taels of silver is enough for a group of merchants to have fun.

Drinking a cup of herbal tea, he slowly paced in the study with his hands behind his back, carefully pondering the Shunde silk market, since the Shunde silk businessman's funds have been set in the tea market, there is no doubt that there will be a huge gap in the Shunde silk market, which is conducive to the Yuanqi Shunde branch quickly gain a firm foothold to open the situation, once the integration of Shunde money is completed, there is basically no major resistance to the unification of Guangdong money bank.

What he is thinking about now is how to make money for himself, Wu Panlu has five million, and he has seven hundred and sixty thousand in his own hands, Su Mengdie will definitely follow suit, which adds up to at least six million, which is enough for him to stir up trouble in Shunde.

Taihesheng tea, backyard, living room.

The sound of "popping" sounded from time to time, He Shutai and Wang Chaoyi were inseparable from the car and horse artillery against each other, several silk merchants were watching the battle, all of them were relaxed, soon after the door opened, the number of merchants who came to trade gradually increased, the amount of transactions was growing steadily, and everyone was naturally relaxed.

The two chess skills were between the two and the middle, and finally ended in a draw, and while swinging, He Shutai asked: "What is the transaction amount now?" ”

"It's more than 5,000 quintals." A silk merchant hurriedly replied.

"Tell me to go down and lower the price to twenty-four taels and one quintal."

"Huh?" The silk merchant was stunned for a moment, and didn't dare to move, Chen Jiawang, who had a beautiful mustache, was puzzled and said: "Fifth brother, it's so good, why is the price so suddenly drastically reduced?" ”

Wang Chaoyi glanced up at him and said, "You don't understand such a simple truth?" Why did the good end suddenly cut the purchase price sharply? This shows that there is not enough silver, and He Dangjia is deliberately creating an atmosphere of panic and lowering the integer price of twenty-four taels, which makes people feel that it may fall below twenty-four at any time, so that those who are still waiting and waiting are determined to make a quick move. ”

"The king's sharp eyes." He Shutai said with a smile: "The tea market has fallen sharply several times, and many businessmen are already frightened birds. As he spoke, he raised his head and ordered: "Send two men to spread the news outside, and say that Taihesheng is not enough silver." ”

"Yes, I'll arrange it." Chen Jiawang responded briskly, and before he could leave, a silk merchant walked in quickly and whispered in He Shutai's ear: "Liang Jiemin is here, just outside the back door, do you see it?" ”

"Naturally, I want to see you, please come in." He Shutai got up as he said and said to everyone: "It's all gone." After everyone left, he said to Wang Chao: "The chief shopkeeper of Yuanqi Guangzhou Branch, the shopkeeper Liang is here, and I will greet him." ”

Hearing that Liang Jiemin was coming, Wang Chaoyi was also quite surprised, and immediately went out together, before going out, Liang Jiemin had already come quickly, and the two people who saw him saluted, he arched his hand expressionlessly and went straight into the room, He Shutai followed in, and hurriedly introduced Wang Chaoyi to him.

Take him to stop, Wang Chaoyi respectfully re-greeted him as a junior, and said: "This time I came to the provincial capital, my father repeatedly told me to go and visit Liang Shibo. ”

"How is Ling Zun?"

"Xie Shibo is worried." Wang Chaoyi said respectfully: "My father is still healthy. ”

Liang Jiemin nodded, and he was not polite, and sat down straight and said: "They are not outsiders, and the old man is not going around in circles, he came here today to ask you to stop." ”

Wang Chaoyi was a little surprised and said, "Shibo is here to be a lobbyist for Yuan Qi?" ”

"Be a lobbyist for Yuanqi?" Liang Jiemin sneered and said, "Yuan Qi can not even leave the scum of your food, and you can use the old man as a lobbyist?" You're too arrogant. ”

He was not polite at all, He Shutai and Wang Chaoyi were both wealthy and powerful in Shunde, and they were welcomed by people in every way, and when they heard this, their faces were hot and a little uncomfortable, but the other party was an elder, but it was not easy to shake their faces.

Liang Jiemin continued: "The tea collapsed, the bank hall and the tea industry association joined forces, and they are not Yuanqi's opponents, and now Yuanqi and the Tea Industry Association have joined forces, how are you their opponents?" Guangdong Customs rectified foreign businessmen overnight, seized more than 400 businesses, strictly prohibited foreign businessmen from trading privately with foreign businessmen, and forced tea prices to fall. ”

"But we've got millions." Wang Chao said: "At the moment, it's just self-help, you can't rely on Yuan Qi and the Tea Industry Association to save us, right?" We don't want to make money in the tea market now, we just hope to get out of the way. ”

"Since Yuan Qi has already made a move, there is no possibility for you to retreat with your whole body." Liang Jiemin said in a deep voice: "For the sake of friendship with your fathers, the old man specially came to remind you that less loss is winning, and honestly losing hundreds of thousands or millions of people is the best ending." ”

He Shutai, who had been silent, said vigilantly: "Did Yuan Qi take measures against us?" ”

"Hmph." Liang Jiemin snorted coldly and said, "The old man came to remind you that it has been counted as benevolence and righteousness, what's the matter, do you still think that the old man is not a person inside and out?" As he spoke, he glanced at the two of them with a displeased expression, stood up and threw his sleeves away.

He came fast and went fast, He Shutai and Wang Chaoyi glanced at each other, both of them looked helpless, Wang Chaoyi shook his head and said: "Lose hundreds of thousands or millions of people to leave, this is really standing and talking without back pain, our silver is like a strong wind." ”

Seeing that He Shutai was silent, he sighed lightly and said: "It's useless to think too much, there is no turning back arrow when you open the bow, I still don't believe it, the thirteen elements dare to lose both." ”
