Chapter 537: Preparation for the Mutual Market

Encountering Houjin's calculations, it strengthened Su Tiancheng's determination, there are various means of revenge, there are long-term, and there are short-term, as a traversing person, Su Tiancheng has a clear understanding, that is, to devote himself to development, really strong, and completely defeat the opponent, that is the biggest revenge, of course, in the middle of this process, he also needs to pay attention to the situation of Houjin at all times, and when he has the opportunity, he may as well calculate the other party.

The mutual market with the Mongolian tribes has been mentioned to the most important position.

The mutual market is a big blow to the Houjin, the Houjin through many expeditions, basically conquered the Mongolian tribes, but also established the Mongolian Eight Banners, but unfortunately this time, Su Tiancheng led the Jiangning camp, directly recovered the Xibe tribe and the Daurian tribe, these two years later, the most brave and warlike Mongolian tribe, from this moment on, will break away from the Houjin.

The biggest role of the mutual market is to make the Mongolian tribes heavily dependent on the Ming Dynasty, after a long time, the Ming Dynasty through economic means, control the Mongolian tribes, such means, more effective than the conquest, experienced the economic power of Su Tiancheng, well versed in the truth. This is not to say that there is no means of armed conquest, and a two-pronged approach is the safest.

"Boss Song, I am ready to let you fully preside over the mutual market with the Mongolian tribes, you must come up with a practical plan, the principle of the plan is inequality, for those who trade secretly, ordinary people, don't pay attention to it for the time being, it will not have much impact, but for some businessmen, secretly trading, we must crack down, including some officials, who want to benefit from it, absolutely not soft, we and the Mongolian steppe tribes to carry out mutual markets, but do not pay attention to the concept of benevolence. It is not possible to trade at our prices. ”

"For example, the price of war horses, we have at least fifty taels of silver here, but we accept the price proposed by the Mongolian tribes, at most twenty taels to twenty-five taels, followed by sheep, don't underestimate it. The Mongolian tribes used to feed a large number of sheep, which was also the main part of their trade, and they also traded at half the price in the Guannai. ”

"What the Mongolian tribes need most is grain, the price of grain cannot be too high, the mutual market needs to be carried out for a long time, you have a principle, the Mongolian tribes buy grain with gold and silver. The price can be higher, but if you trade war horses and sheep, you will ...... according to the price in the customs area."

Song Sijun looked at Su Tiancheng, the churning in his heart, he thought he was doing business, but sometimes he was very dark-hearted, and he couldn't think of what it was compared to Su Tiancheng. If the mutual market is carried out according to such an operation, it is equivalent to obtaining gold and silver. Rijin Doujin is not an unusual thing, he once made a transaction with the Mongolian tribe, the poverty of the Mongolian tribe is very different from that of the Guannai, mainly manifested in the difficult conditions, no fixed residence, and migration from time to time. This is destined to be able to only carry out a nomadic life, it is impossible to grow food, and there are no such conditions in the grasslands and deserts, and grain, tea, liquor, silk and other things are regarded as luxuries by them.

Develop a plan. The focus is to control the mutual market, the merchants and people who enter the mutual market must pay a large amount of taxes, and the taxes in this regard need to be clearly defined in the middle of the plan, including the necessary calculations, such a large transaction volume, no one can take it, there is no such ability, of course, as long as the mutual market is carried out, it will attract a large number of businessmen, who is allowed to enter the market for trading, this is a huge power.

In this regard, Su Tiancheng was completely handed over to Song Sijun to deal with, which shows that he is completely trusted.

Song Sijun also felt tremendous pressure.

"Boss Song, King Qin, King Rui and King Han are definitely going to enter the mutual market trading, as for their taxes, they will not be collected for the time being this year, they have already taken out 500,000 taels of silver, even if it is this year's tax, I will tell them, the scale should not be too large, lest everyone look good, in addition, I suggest, you should consider the businessmen of Jiangning County, these people are familiar to you, as for Henan Mansion, don't absorb too much, so as not to shake the foundation of Henan Mansion, the conditions of Nanzhili are good, It is also appropriate to attract some businessmen to come here. ”

Song Sijun nodded again and again.

"Don't worry, my lord, my subordinates will do their best."

"I know this, but my requirements are different, you must come up with a plan within five days, you can't delay, the sooner the mutual market starts, the better, I have sent people to the Hetao area, please ask the representatives of the Xibe tribe and the Daurian tribe to come to Xianyang, when the time comes, you talk to them directly, on behalf of the governor Yamen to talk to them."

"My lord, is thisβ€”is this appropriate?"

"What's inappropriate, in business, you have been doing business for many years, familiar with everything here, if you want to maintain the order of the mutual market, you must negotiate well, both sides have accepted, it is possible to trade well, you have to remember that our mutual market is open all year round, not a limited time, as long as there is no particularly big change, the mutual market will always be maintained."

"My lord, my subordinates understand."

Song Sijun left with his front foot, and Yue Gaofeng entered the governor's yamen with his back foot.

"Yue Gaofeng, I am going to send you to Ningxia Weiyi to replace the governor Yamen and participate in the management of the mutual market, I don't know if you have the guts."

"The subordinate obeys the command of the adults."

"Very good, you deal with things very flexibly, the mutual market is my Ming Dynasty and the Mongolian tribes to trade, there are a lot of matters that need to be coordinated, there are always disputes in the transaction, there is nothing unusual, there is no need to make a fuss, let alone resort to force at every turn, after you get there, the task is very heavy, you must be in the middle to do a good job of coordination, you must remember, when dealing with specific disputes, deal with it impartially, can not be because it is in the land of my Ming Dynasty, there is a situation of favoritism, the transaction needs to be honest, Under the conditions that are accepted by all, fair trade is necessary. ”

"Xiaguan understands."

"Well, you are ready, in addition, you have to look for a few candidates, there is more than one location in the mutual market, the distance is very far, the preliminary plan is three places, respectively in the Yulin Wei, Ningxia Wei and Ningxia Guards are stationed, you don't have a doppelganger technique, it is impossible to be all-encompassing, but I said ugly things in front, since you are representing the governor's yamen, to coordinate the dispute between the city, if you are looking for a candidate, in the process of doing things, if there is a problem, you are asking."

"Don't worry, my lord, Xia Guan knows how to do it."

"The candidate you are looking for does not have to be an official, as for their salary, the governor's yamen will determine it."

After saying everything that should be said, Yue Gaofeng was ready to leave.

Su Tiancheng looked at Yue Gaofeng and inadvertently said the most important point.

"Yue Gaofeng, don't touch the things that are greedy for ink, eat other people's soft mouths, take other people's soft hands, once you get involved, you can't get rid of it, and don't think about being able to do things well."

Su Tiancheng found Qu Qingze the last time.

"Lao Qu, what do you think about the mutual market, or maybe it's a suggestion."

"My lord, Xia Guan thinks that the mutual market is very good, and if it is really done, it can earn a lot of silver, Xia Guan has seen it these days, and the adult has always been busy with the affairs of the mutual market, but he can't help."

Su Tiancheng shook his head, quite hated that iron could not become steel.

"Lao Qu, you have been in Jinyiwei for so many years, at least you are not sensitive, in such an important place as the mutual market, why didn't you think of arranging a dark line."

"This, my lord, Xia Guan really didn't expect it, I don't know what effect the dark line can be arranged by the road."

"Then let me tell you, since the mutual market has begun, do you think that the people who come to trade are just the Dauria tribe of the Xibe tribe, it is impossible, the other tribes of the grassland, break their heads and enter the market, even if the Xibe tribe and the Dauria tribe are strong, they dare not offend all the tribes on the grassland, and those who can enter the market to trade are among the grassland tribes, and there are some powerful families, although they are here to trade, but who knows if they will reveal some information, Even if they don't say it, can't our dark line tempt them to say it? ”

"There is one of the most important aspects, since the mutual market has begun, my Ming Dynasty has traded with the grassland tribes, do you think Houjin is watching like this, won't they send people, whether they are here to destroy, or have any other motives, in short, they are coming, discovering their traces, mastering their actions, isn't it a matter of dark lines."

"I can tell you very clearly, the mutual market is a huge source of intelligence, there will be a steady stream of intelligence here, if the dark line is done, you can even grasp the situation of the entire grassland tribe, there is such a big opportunity, you actually didn't notice it, you tell me what you did in Jinyiwei."

Qu Qingze's face flushed.

"My lord, the lower officials used to obey the orders from above, and they never made their own decisions, so I couldn't think of this, so I will arrange it right away."

"Well, you have to install the key force, don't contact anyone else with the dark line, if you have any information, give it to you directly, you keep a single line with many dark lines, this is very important, they can't be exposed, otherwise their lives will be lost."

The arrangements have been arranged, and next, Su Tiancheng needs to think about how to deal with the matter of dismantling the guard, the middle-aged man has been secretly escorted to the capital, except for Su Tiancheng and Qu Qingze, the others almost don't know the way, Su Tiancheng's secret fold was also presented, and the letter to Sun Chengzong was also sent to the capital by a special person, in this case, his plan will be realized, I believe that after the emperor sees the secret fold, he will be furious, and the trace of hesitation in his heart will disappear without a trace.
