1151 Business is Business
The cloth sales in the autumn of the third year of the Apocalypse were personally presided over by Zhou Xuezhi, and Zhao Ziying would give the greatest cooperation in all aspects, and the news of the internal guards and various eyeliners continued to gather to him.
Now even Songjiang cloth merchants are secretly snapping up Xuzhou cloth, they all feel that Xuzhou is holding on to the hard top, and now it is also losing blood, as long as the blood loss process of Xuzhou cloth merchants is accelerated, the loss this year can be earned back in the coming year, and the cloth can be preserved for a long time.
Songjiang's approach made many people in Yunshanxing extremely angry, and some people directly suggested to Zhou Xuezhi, saying that if they went to put a fire on the warehouse in Songjiang, or show a knife, it would save them so disgusting.
These mentions were rejected by Zhou Xuezhi, this time it was to fight a business war with Songjiang in a dignified manner, only in this way can you win the battle, and then you can do business normally, otherwise, the two sides will continue to be entangled like this, and the way of fighting will become more and more extreme.
And the peripheral businesses of Yunshan Xing, including the merchants outside Qingjiangpu cotton spinning, are also worried about Yunshan Xing, they have been up and down for many years, although they don't know the bottom of the cotton industry, but the approximate cost can always be calculated, and now Zhao Ziying's cotton cloth business makes everyone can't understand it, which is constantly bleeding.
Is it to find a livelihood for those refugees, but wouldn't it be more secure to cultivate the land, but whether it is a peripheral business or those merchants, no one persuaded them, and even some people followed to buy some Songjiang cloth and Xuzhou cloth, which are two percent lower than the market price, how can they make money, everyone is only watching in silence.
Because the workshops of cotton gins and spinning machines are kept secret, outsiders can only see and hear the weaving yards that are no different from other places, so no one knows that the cost of Xuzhou cloth is a fraction of that of other cotton cloths in the market.
Zhou Xuezhi will take the abacus every night when he is alone in the study, and he can't help laughing every time, others think that Zhao Ziying is losing blood, but in fact, gold and silver money are rolling in, this feeling of secrecy is really wonderful.
In the business war between Xuzhou and Songjiang this time, there are also maritime merchants who also feel wonderful, especially the Li family gang who has just caught up with Zhao Jin, and the cotton cloth below the market price of two percent, how to sell it is profitable, and it is more than in previous years, and Songjiang cotton cloth is in short supply in previous years, and this year it is open to sale, so that they can earn more.
The Songjiang Yu family should have made a lot of benefits in this cotton cloth business war, because they had already laid out in advance, and Xuzhou did not impose any restrictions on them, but the family was in Songjiang, and they would definitely offend the anger of the public in this contest that had already played a real fire, Yu Zhiyuan knew better than others the consequences of the anger of the Songjiang wealthy merchant clan, even if he wanted to force it, his family and clansmen would not agree, and there was no accommodation this time.
After knowing that a shipload of cotton cloth was transported away from the sea, the wealthy merchants in Songjiang did not think that the cloth in Xuzhou was sold well, but thought of the relationship between Zhao Jin and the rivers and lakes and the sea, and wondered if the purchase on the sea was a good act with Xuzhou.
The power and relationship of the wealthy merchants in Jiangnan is not a joke, even if it is a sea leader like the Li family's big gang, the wealthy businessmen in Songjiang can also ask about the relationship, and then know the truth, the Li family's big gang spent real money in Xuzhou, and then they will earn back more real money and silver in other places, and they even know that there is a lot of inventory in Xuzhou, and the weaving yard is still in a steady stream of production.
The next step was that the patrol team of Qingjiangpu captured more than a dozen outlaws who intended to set fire, and then set up a warehouse twenty miles south of Qingjiangpu to fight the water thieves who got off the ship, killing and capturing a total of more than 100 people.
These people attempted or were caught, and it is said that some people used money in Huai'an Mansion and Shanyang County, preparing to make Zhao Ziying entangled in trouble in the lawsuit.
When the more than 100 water bandits who were caught were beheaded in public, Huai'an Mansion ignored them, and even some people took the initiative to tell the whistle and still ignored them, the Songjiang merchants quickly understood something, and the cotton war immediately came to an end.
The means of the open and the secret have been tried, and there is no effect, the Songjiang wealthy businessmen immediately softened, the situation of the price of the shipment lasted for a day, Songjiang cotton industry will make one less day of silver, since there is no way to destroy the other party, and the cotton cloth produced by both sides is not worried about the market, so why continue to live and die? Especially when the other party can't die.
When Xuzhou and Songjiang Mansion were fighting openly and secretly on cotton cloth, Yu Zhiyuan was very low-key, but he was still suspicious and suspicious of his fellow villagers, and there were always people watching him in the house, but when he needed to make peace, Yu Zhiyuan was immediately pushed out, and was known for his friendship with his fellow villagers, so he went to Xuzhou to make peace.
Yu Zhiyuan is only the first wave, and then all the wealthy businessmen in Yangzhou and Qingjiangpu, who have a relationship with Zhao Ziying, have been asked by various relationships to come to Xuzhou to intercede, and to end this cotton cloth battle that seems to be "both lose-losers".
Although the wealthy businessmen in Songjiang did not talk about business, and in the end they also used bad means outside the shopping mall, but Zhao Ziying did not hold them accountable, but agreed to your peace from the good, because under the management of Songjiang Mansion from wealthy merchants to weavers and cotton farmers, this cotton cloth business has long been a mature market, from cotton sowing to weaving and dyeing cloth for export, there are mature links, Songjiang people play a huge role in every link, Zhao Ziying is to use this market to make money, not to break their own reconstruction, So in the end, Zhao Ziying was kind and "in business".
Of course, this is also the current cotton cloth market is far from saturated, Songjiang and the production of all parts of the world is far from meeting the demand, because this demand is not only the Ming and Beijing provinces, but also includes the Wa Kingdom, Goryeo, Nanyang and even further places, as long as there are sea trade channels, can contact the fleet that is willing to buy, how much cotton cloth can be sold, so Zhao Ziying wants to make money with anger, if this market is saturated, then this time it will be endless.
The two sides negotiated very smoothly, since they can make more money, then why bother to lower the price of two percent to others, so the two sides decided to readjust the price back, if anyone secretly reduces the price of the shipment, it is the public enemy, and the same judgment of both sides, the price of cotton cloth export after the original price is restored, it does not affect the market, because the people who sell cotton cloth have the same profit according to the original price, Songjiang wealthy businessmen are just very disgusted about their own price reduction some time ago, they feel that Xuzhou is the same, just force calm to save face.
Outsiders seem to be bleeding, but the inside of the Zhao Ziying is rejoicing at the profits brought by this cotton cloth, which is equivalent to opening up a new source of wealth in addition to the soju, salt, ironware and bazaar trade, originally this year to move the people, to resettle the Liao people, this year's expenses and the budget for the coming year will be very large, although the income is still rich, the savings are still enough, but Wang Zhaojing, Ruhui, Zhou Xuezhi and Chen Hong are ready to live within their means, but the cotton cloth business opened, everyone was relieved, it seems that they can spread out the stall again.
Jixiang in the north of Yizhou, with Gegoudian as the center to establish a large camp, personnel and materials are continuously concentrated in the past, there is no waterway to go in this location, even if there is a waterway in the winter season, it can not be relied on, can only rely on the carriage and horses, the cattle and horses carrying the materials on the road, pulling the cart and livestock themselves also consume a lot of food, such a distribution material costs a lot, but the Zhao Ziying is transported in such a car, nearly 3,000 people in Gegoudian are well fed and well-equipped.
Not to mention the elite of the pro-guard brigade, the momentum of more than a dozen old regiments training companies, just this endless transportation, piled up of materials, let the officials in this area shocked, how fierce Xuzhou can fight they have seen, such financial and material resources and action force make them even more staggering, anyone knows that the border area between Qingzhou Mansion and Yanzhou Mansion is remote and poor, and it is not worth spending too much effort, even so there is such a huge amount of material investment, and the strength of Zhao Ziying can be seen.
The gentry and heroes of Yishui, Mengyin, Juzhou and other areas of Qingzhou Prefecture, regardless of whether they were involved in the bloody turmoil set off by Zhao Ziying, did not prepare for the New Year as in previous years, but sent their children, and even the patriarch of the family to go to Xuzhou to take a look.
Zhao Jin didn't even pay much attention to the cotton fight, a battle that Xuzhou would win steadily, why should he pay attention, if it wasn't to maintain the stability of this market, Zhao Ziying directly pressed down forty percent of the shipment according to the market price, Songjiang was only afraid that he would immediately mourn all over the field, and then Zhao Ziying took the silver over, and all the cotton fields and cloth shops could eat it at a low price, but if he did that, he would soon cause a bloody storm, but when it came to killing people and seeing blood, who was Zhao Ziying afraid of?
What really made Zhao Jin a little interested was that the two teams of bandits who were captured, led by those who had been sent to Xuzhou to be imprisoned and tortured, these two teams were from Taihu Lake, once Jiangnan had no way to go, there were two places to go, one was Taihu Lake, the other was on the sea, and the Taihu Lake Water Village also involved Chen Youliang, Zhang Shicheng and other former dynasty forces, the government was unwilling to cause this trouble, so it also became the "arsenal" of the Jiangnan wealthy family, and when it was necessary to do murder and arson, it would contact that side, for such forces, Zhao Ziying must be checked clearly.
Regarding Yu Zhiyuan's statement this time, many people in Zhao Ziying were dissatisfied
