It's just that when an official document reached Guilin Mansion, this Governor Liu was stunned.

The good days are over.

In view of the fact that Guilin Prefecture and other prefectures and counties along the route were becoming more and more unpeaceful, and thieves were breeding, not to mention the imperial court's intention to ban commerce and trade, Lang Son complied with the imperial court's decree and took precautions, and decided to suspend the purchase of 1qiē timber and minerals from various prefectures and counties in Guangxi, and instead increase the quota in Sumatra, Johor and other places.

I don't accept it......

This is like a blow to the head, the shocked Liu Zhifu was speechless, at that time, the demand for Langshan was great, so everywhere to buy all kinds of minerals, many people saw that it was profitable, they never imagined, many worthless stones in the mountains, the original can be exchanged for silver, so many people are like crazy to look for mines and open mountains, and organize people to cut down trees and destroy forests, after these four or five years of development, not to mention other places, just Guilin, here, almost many people rely on this to eat.

Liu Xiong and Liu Governor also relied on this to eat, originally he felt that the situation was a little bad, and sooner or later this oil and water would be cut off, but he never thought that this time, it would come so fast, and he was not given any time to prepare at all.

In the past, they also rented out land to tenants to plant, but the income was too low, and as a last resort, many people abandoned the land, and then began to buy mines and mine, and the income was several times that of the past, and now it is ...... All of a sudden, it's over.

If there's nothing wrong, it's over. Almost all of them are finished.

This is by no means alarmist, because the lives of countless people are maintained on this chain of interests.

Let's talk about Liu Xiong alone. Liu Xiong is the prefect, and the situation was good a few years ago, so he wanted to be an official. Every year, Bing respects carbon, and there are thousands of taels of silver sent out, and his handwriting is not small, and he has gradually been favored by Shangguan, originally this time, Liu Xiong planned to add more strength, and pay more filial piety in the past two years. Strive to get a fat difference when you are transferred.

But now, that qiē has come to naught. His financial resources are cut off, which means that next year's filial piety will not be able to make up five hundred taels. Unless you come out with your old book. For him, filial piety is investment, and as soon as the capital chain is broken, the previous investment will be wasted, after all, everyone above knows that the prefect surnamed Liu is very sensible, and filial piety is also very powerful, so he favors some. But next year, your filial piety will not be added. Instead, it decreases, what does that mean? No matter how you explain it, this is also a different explanation, people's appetite will only get bigger and bigger, you are good, a year is not as good as a year, what, when you are an official, is it to ask Hanako to send away? Or which high branch did you climb on, which Buddha's foot did you hold, so you looked down on your own officials?

Therefore, once the capital chain is broken, Liu Xiong's wishful thinking will not only fail, but may even be beaten into the cold palace from now on, and he will do nothing all his life, this time it is Guilin, and the next one is afraid that he will go to Qiongzhou.

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

In fact, for Liu Xiong, it is not bad, after all, he is just an official, and he guarantees income in drought and flood, so it's a big deal to change to a remote place, but he is still an official. And for many big families and families in Guilin Mansion, it is a real catastrophe, they have to buy the entire mine in order to mine, and after that, they have to recruit young people on a large scale, but these alone, it is still not enough, you can't transport all the iron ore to Langshan, this car of iron ore, can not train how much iron, transported, how much silver can be exchanged? So they had to refine the iron ore roughly, smelt it into pig iron, and then send it to Lang Son, Lang Son's workshop, and then make it into fine steel.

Every link here is silver, the cost of the mine is getting higher and higher, the manpower recruited is getting more and more expensive, and you have to have strong labor, you can't afford to pay a lot of money, so people go to Lang Son to make a living, in addition to building a small blast furnace, to recruit a group of blacksmiths, to buy some big cars, to recruit some people to be responsible for transportation.

This back and forth, if you want to do this kind of business, you can't do it without thousands of taels of silver.

But after all, Guilin has a small temple, and there will be no such wealthy family who spends a lot of money, so how to do this business? Everyone naturally has a way, that is to take out a loan, anyway, as long as this business can be done, you can make money every day, the iron price in Langshan is rising, do not worry about sales, our Wang family is full of calculations, can only take out three thousand silver, but not afraid, the Wang family is a huge influence in the local family after all, after all, generations are here, poetry and books are heirlooms, grandfathers built bridges and paved roads, fathers have run good halls, the influence is well-known, and generations are entrenched here, countless in-laws, relatives and friends, all over Guilin, so the Wang family came out, let's partner together, you give a little, I give a little, or you borrow a little, count your profit, and everyone will get rich together.

Harmony is the most superficial form of mining, which not only shares the risk, but also allows everyone to take a share of the mining together.

The vast majority of the more than 70 mines in Guilin are formed in this form.

Originally, they had an income every year, and then dividends or repayment, as long as the year was the same as in previous years, ten years and eight years, they would have to have a lot of money, but now, when such a news came out, everyone was stunned.

People don't want iron ore, which means that the ore you mine has become a useless stone, the stone can't be exchanged for silver, there is no silver, how to repay the debt, so much silver has been invested in the early stage, and the account has not been paid off, which is really going to be ruined.

Dozens of mine owners encountered a lot of trouble that day, because the creditors and relatives came to the door, everyone is not stupid, once the news came out, everyone was most worried about their own silver, since this mining is unprofitable, this account, you have to pay it back.

Don't pay it back? Although everyone is a relative and a friend, but the brothers still have to settle the account, you have to sell your mine, and you have to raise money.

Unfortunately...... This mine is now worthless, who will buy a worthless mine, so even if the mine owners sell their family business, those accounts will be difficult to offset.

On the one hand, they appeased the creditors, and on the other hand, they ran to the capital city one after another, with only one purpose, that is, to see the meaning of the government. (To be continued......)
