Chapter 403: Zhang Ning's words
It's not great, but it's not that bad either.
The funds must have been exhausted, not only that, but after resuming production, a large amount of money will be required, so Wu Xian can only borrow part of it from the bank.
Ye Chen is very concerned about the operation of the bank, but fortunately, there is no crisis, the funds are still safe, and there is no run, it seems that after such a long period of development, the family in Youzhou still trusts Liaodong very much.
Generally speaking, the Ye family's business in Youzhou has almost stopped, the entire Youzhou is at war, materials cannot be effectively circulated, and it is impossible to do business.
As for the business in other regions, it has also been affected a lot, because the Ye family cannot produce enough goods, and there is not enough capacity, so it is inevitable that it will be affected.
In foreign trade, part of the land route, the other by sea, the land route must have been greatly affected, and the sea route has also been affected, the original use of the ship to transport goods, at first Ye Chen was transferred to transport a part of the troops, and later used to transport military supplies, so the capacity has also been greatly affected.
Ye Chen estimated that it would take at least a month for the business to fully recover, and as for Youzhou, don't think about it in a few months if it recovers.
However, what was not affected was the salt trade with Dong Zhuo, which had been hoarded a lot before, and the war had not yet affected Yuxian, and Yuxian did not organize personnel to retreat temporarily, except for the workshop transferred to a wartime state, the rest did not change much.
This time, due to the intensification of the hoarding and manufacture of military equipment, a large amount of weapons and equipment has been hoarded in the warehouse, and there is no need to rush to produce them in a short time.
Youzhou's business has been affected, but it's okay, if you can trade normally with the Xiongnu and Xianbei, not only can you make more money without losses, and now the Ye family's business has spread all over the entire Han Dynasty, a state, or a relatively poor state, can no longer affect the overall situation, as long as the Ye family can resume production as soon as possible and ship the products out.
What makes Ye Chen most pleased is the stability of the Ye family's money bank, if something happens to the money bank, it will be a big deal, and it is very likely that the Ye family's entire business empire will be affected.
Out of Yejiabao, Ye Chen went to Xiangping City, and he was going to Taishou Mansion to deal with official business.
After finding a few staff members and learning about the situation for a long time, Liaodong is quite stable and is restoring order.
After understanding, Ye Chen breathed a sigh of relief, Liaodong was not greatly damaged, only a few county towns were attacked, but they attacked tightly and did not break through, so they were forced to withdraw.
Several staff members Ye Chen let them do their own work, and he left Liu Qi behind.
"What's wrong with this time?"
"Back to the lord, everything is fine, but most of the families sent some of the children of the family to Qingzhou by sea for refuge, but they did not find that any family colluded with the enemy and caused trouble during the war."
"It's okay to run for refuge when war comes, as long as you don't collude with the enemy and make trouble for us, I won't pursue anything else. Can the yellow scarf be stable? ”
Ye Chen understood very well the way of life of these families, they all took survival as the first priority, and then considered other things.
"Most of the yellow scarves have been integrated into the life of Liaodong, some of them don't even think of themselves as yellow scarves anymore, and some of them also live a stable life, there are no special movements, just one person"
"Don't worry about it, just say it."
"Lord, it is Zhang Jing who told you before, he has been walking around in Xiangxian County before, I heard that the war was over, after the Xiongnu and Xianbei retreated, he came to Xiangping City, and several times I went to ask Mrs. when you would come back, and the rest of the time stayed in Xiangping City."
"Okay, I got it."
Ye Chen asked Liu Qi to go down first, Zhang Jing's matter had been reported before, it seemed that the other party had something to find him, but Ye Chen didn't have time for the time being, there were a lot of things for him to deal with, and he still had to pay attention to the battle situation in the entire Youzhou, the crisis in Liaodong was temporarily lifted, but Zhang Chun's rebels were still in chaos.
Ye Chen had been handling official business in the Taishou Mansion, and it was getting dark, and he didn't notice it.
"Lord, someone outside the door asks to see you, saying that it is your old friend." The soldiers of the escort battalion came to report, and Ye Chen realized that it was dark.
"Invite him in."
"Zhang Jing? It's you. ”
It was Chen Jing who came in with the soldiers of the guard battalion, which made Ye Chen a little surprised, the two had been familiar with each other for a long time, it seemed that this Zhang Jing really had something to do with him.
"Let's go to the backyard, I just haven't eaten yet." It was true that he hadn't eaten after a busy day, and Ye Chen thought that Chen Jing must be a private matter to find him, so it was more convenient to go to the backyard.
Let people prepare food, Ye Chen took Zhang Jing to the study in the backyard, which was also his residence in the Taishou Mansion, Ye Chen had his own mansion in Xiangping City, and he spent most of his time in the Ye family, so it was relatively simple here.
"Zhang Jing, I don't know what you came to me for?"
"I'm a yellow scarf too." Zhang Ning said expressionlessly, but Yu Guang kept secretly looking at Ye Chen's expression.
"Haha" Ye Chen smiled freely: "I already knew this, since I am willing to accept you, as long as you don't do anything that endangers my Liaodong, then I won't do anything, you can live in Liaodong completely normally, and no one will trouble you." ”
Zhang Ning shook his head and said, "I'm not an ordinary yellow scarf, my identity is special. ”
Ye Chen frowned, he knew that Zhang Jing had something to say, and it was more important, but Ye Chen didn't understand, what did Zhang Ning's special identity mean?
"My uncle told me that if the Han Dynasty perishes in the future, then you must have a share of the credit, and he also said that you may be the only one in the entire Han Dynasty who can tolerate my yellow scarf." Zhang Ning didn't care about Ye Chen's reaction, and said to himself.
Ye Chen didn't answer this time, and quietly waited for Zhang Ning to continue.
However, Ye Chen didn't agree with her statement in his heart, saying that he had his credit for the demise of the Great Han, which Ye Chen believed, but it would be wrong to say that he could tolerate the yellow scarf.
He can accept these Yellow Turban members, but he can't allow the spread of Taiping Dao in Liaodong, without the ideological armament of Taiping Dao, in fact, the Yellow Turban is not a Yellow Turban, after these Yellow Turban members were absorbed by Liaodong, many people gradually gave up the idea of Taiping Dao, many of them were originally coerced, and there are not many real Yellow Turban loyalists.
Only those Yellow Turban diehards could not be transformed, and the others were gradually transformed into ordinary people, so Ye Chen eliminated the Yellow Turban spiritually, so Ye Chen could not accommodate the Yellow Turban at all.
"So my uncle told me that it is not okay to overthrow the entire Han Yellow Turban, but you can, so let me cooperate with you and let me help you." Zhang Ning continued.
Ye Chen was very puzzled? Who is Zhang Jing's uncle, how does he know his ambitions, knows that he wants to kill the big Han, and how much strength do they still have, so that he even said that he wants to help him? If he hadn't helped before, they would have survived, so why would she help herself?
