Chapter 137

The guard brought the shopkeeper to Jia Fugui. The shopkeeper was stunned at first, and then said with a bitter smile: "the big shopkeeper is really elegant."

Jia Fugui has just been fed pepper, his mouth is red, his clothes are open, his skin is red.

He coughed twice and said, "let it go if you have a fart!"

With a smile, the shopkeeper took out a notebook, picked up a pen, and said, "the shantytown has been built. The canteen, the hospital, the information bureau, and some grocery stores have been prepared in succession. Now the problem is that there is a little more money needed. Although they have been loaned from all over the world, some of them are too small to use. I don't know if we can mobilize the money of the chamber of Commerce This matter? All the money used before was the money of the caravan. This month is the time to purchase goods. There is not much surplus for each family. "

"That's it? You can't decide? "

The shopkeeper said with a wry smile, "who dares to move the money of the chamber of commerce without you? You are a well-known Iron Rooster. Who dares to pluck a hair from the chamber of Commerce? Who can stand it? It's a matter of weight. It's hard for anyone to bear the weight of your body, isn't it? "

"Go away!"

Jia Fugui rolled his eyes, then took the pen and paper, sketched a few words on it, and said, "regardless of the cost, regardless of the cost, how many times do I have to say that you can understand? If you can't do it well, you'll get the hell out of me! There are so many people aiming at your position. When did I lack people? "

"That's right, that's right. I'm afraid I'll make you unhappy."

Jia Fugui hummed twice. It's clear that he is a prisoner now, but his momentum is not weak.

After thinking about it for a while, he said, "it seems that the number of people coming over is far more than we expected! This is a bit of a problem. The shanty towns are obviously not enough, and the resources are not enough. There are so many grains in Daliang City, I'm afraid It's easy to cause panic and lead to the phenomenon of grain looting and hoarding, especially those big families who don't fill their own granaries

Jia Fugui said: "it's true. It's still too urgent, but If you're in a hurry, I can't do without you! Since there will be a shortage of food, the caravan will make some efforts to stop all the work in hand immediately. Even if it is a breach of contract, it will pay liquidated damages. But I think the offline merchants are embarrassed to ask for it, right? In short, regardless of the loss, regardless of the cost! By the way, it's said that there was a bumper harvest in the Western Zhou Dynasty this year, and all kinds of crops would grow hairy in the warehouse. Now they are worried about no one to buy and sell, and the common people are even more miserable. Ha ha, how do they know how to do business? I thought that if I collected more, I would be rich, but I didn't understand that it would make them poor! It's just that we'll send someone over. Before, the great God of the Western Zhou Dynasty had a little friendship with our childe, so we'll do them a favor and collect all the surplus grain. "

They were talking, but the people in the next room were curious.

An official asked in a low voice: "Qi Xiang, why does a good harvest make farmers poor? This It's unreasonable. "

Qi Wanshi sighed and said, "the way of merchants is very complicated. I have seen this rich harvest even poorer, especially in some small countries. As for the reason You and I are not merchants, and the reason is not clear. "

"Oh..."

The officials couldn't help thinking, frankly speaking, they just didn't know.

But listen to the conversation between two people next door, really Is it a businessman?

How come the more you listen, the more you want to be in charge of the government? Even other countries will be involved. The content of this brief conversation is even more wonderful than the political comments in the cabinet!

Jia Fugui also talked with the shopkeeper for a while, and then the shopkeeper suddenly stopped talking. He didn't go or speak there. It's strange.

Jia Fugui asked, "what's the matter? Is there anything I can't say? "

"This matter It's a bit of trouble. I have to make up my mind, but now you are obviously Cough, what can we do? "

"Tell me first." Jia Fugui frowned and sat upright.

The shopkeeper said, "well, since our chamber of Commerce has grown, the money It's not that we don't have enough money. It's not that we don't have enough money. It's that we don't have enough money in Daliang. Whether it's gold, silver or copper coins, even if the government tried to issue them in the later period, the amount is still far from enough. In the past, we could still operate in the form of token money, but now we need to use a lot of money, which is not enough. If we invest more money in the future, if the money doesn't work well, I'm afraid it will shake the foundation of the whole country. At that time, the people will not be able to afford it. At that time It's burning. "

"Well..."

Jia also frowned and said, "what about other countries? Isn't there a new gold mine in Southern Jin? It's said that the output is not bad. Just because they love money, they should work hard to exploit it. Isn't that enough? "

"Not only is it not enough, the key is Even if it's enough, it's impossible to buy them all, right? Gold is just money. When they dig it out, they sell money crazily and exchange it for real goods. The Southern Jin Dynasty will become strong in a short time. Especially the warlords who own gold will surpass other warlords in a short time The situation of the Warlord's separatist regime in the Southern Jin Dynasty will be broken. As the young master has strictly ordered before, we must keep a balance between the warlords. We must not support a strong guy, because a chaotic country, the Southern Jin with internal checks and balances, is a good Southern Jin. If it is unified, then the state of Daliang will send troops to guard against the south. The gain is not worth the loss! ""Well You are absolutely right, young master. If so Money is really worrying now. "

The shopkeeper's silence for a while, suddenly said: "otherwise, we found the money ticket?"

Jia Fugui's eyes immediately widened and said harshly, "are you crazy?! Do you remember what you said about the Southern Jin Dynasty and how did you forget about the money and tickets? Childe said, this kind of thing is imperative, but you must ask your majesty to nod! If your majesty does not allow it, you must not move! Do you understand? "

The shopkeeper said with a bitter face: "but some other chambers of Commerce have already issued some money tickets of their own. We haven't seen any action yet. The businessmen outside have already been anxious, because every time they trade with us, they need real money with them. You don't know that once the shipment was expensive. A carriage went by, and then you came back with ten carriages of copper money. Just for the consumption on the road, you used up a carriage of copper money, which is equivalent to 10% of our net profit! The big business of your family is not distressed, but the small one. Who is not distressed in the whole chamber of Commerce? It's clear that the money ticket is a wonderful method that our young master came up with, but he doesn't use it himself. Now other chambers of commerce are starting to use it on a small scale. This It's too Well

Jia Fugui was also in some pain and said, "well, I know about this, but I'm sure it can't be solved in a short time. As you can see, I don't know when I can get out of here. You can think of your own way. In terms of money, you must have a certain degree, and you must not let the money affect the people's will in Daliang. Do you understand? "

"Don't worry, but It's going to slow down a little bit. "

"No! Must be fast, the fastest! Young master is an acute man. Even if you break your leg, it's slow for him. Do you want to work slower? Do you want to do it? "

The shopkeeper said with a sad face: "that little one is really helpless, or Why don't you change people! "

"Why? Do you know that I can't get out now and want to use words to motivate me? "

The two of them quarreled.

Qi Wanshi narrowed his eyes and touched his chin. Then he suddenly said to the people around him, "if this guy is kicked by the Qin chamber of Commerce, send someone to find him immediately. The chamber of Commerce doesn't want him. I want him."

The official quickly nodded his head.

But I can't help thinking, let a businessman run to the officialdom? It's always a little inappropriate.

But listen to that shopkeeper's words, it really doesn't look like a businessman.

In other words, they have never seen such a businessman!

Why?

Because Qin Murong teaches and presses on it.

They do things in a wild and unrestrained way, but they are relaxed and have a certain degree, which can never exceed a limit.

And this is Qin Murong's "Tao"!

Of course, the official didn't understand these reasons, but he only knew one thing, that is, it's a pity that such a talented man didn't come to be an official. It's really a pity that he had to be a merchant of the lower class It's strange.

He didn't understand, but he didn't know the shopkeepers of the Qin family chamber of Commerce, and he didn't understand those officials!

What's good about being an official? To be a man and to do things, we should always consider other people. There is not much to do with salary alone. Now the world is greedy, but we also have to bear the risk that we will be doomed after being caught.

They are different. They have plenty of money!

One by one, they enjoy the same life as emperors.

Take this hunchback shopkeeper as an example. He just married a 16-year-old girl a few days ago. She is beautiful and incurable! They are all the same age as his granddaughter. In addition, this guy is very ugly. He is a beauty and a beast. He is still an old beast!

But other girls just like him.

Why?

Because he can bring the little girl a luxury world that the other party has never imagined, and let the little girl's family enjoy the prosperity of Daliang

This kind of thing, of course, is hidden from Qin Murong. After all, according to the rumor, Qin Murong hates people doing this, although he doesn't know why.

If they dare not be impeached, they will be impeached.

So what's good about being an official?

Besides, now he is a manager of the Qin family chamber of Commerce. No matter which country he goes to, people treat him with great courtesy and treat him as a guest of honor. Those officials also have to accompany him. Who has more face? obvious.

It's not a fish, but a fish's pleasure. Most things in the world are like this.

"Well, you go back. You're spending time with me here, and I can't find a way to deal with it. Anyway, I'm here for the board. You go out and fight hard, I'll lose face, and you'll pay for the inside. Don't stop everyone!"

The shopkeeper had no choice but to leave.

However, as soon as he went out, he was happy, as if he had won the "struggle" with Jia Fugui.

I don't know where he won.

Jia Fugui sighed in the room and said, "that Did you all hear that? There are a lot of things going on outside now, otherwise Just put me back? When you're done, you can settle with me. "He said it pitifully.

But the officials are not listening to the mind.

What's the matter?

Are we holding you back? Are we bad people? The one who can't accomplish enough but can't defeat enough?

"No! It's better to have a whip or a board. The general choice is the same. This guy can't learn without blood! "

A group of Wen Chen surrounded them, but they were Wen Chen after all. What could they do? If the literati don't have to kill people with a knife, it's like they don't have to kill people with a knife.

A group of people around Jia Fugui, all kinds of saliva attack, make Jia Fugui is not tired of.

But it doesn't hurt.

In the end, the military officer rushed up, and Jia Fugui was soft hearted. After a while of begging for mercy, his heart was slightly calmed.

But if you want to be released, it's unlikely.

What is the reason to let go of what is hard to catch? In addition, he made a full set of plays, especially for the case that he instigated his nephew to rob the daughter of the people.

Of course, nothing came out, but it was just a formality, with the intention of disgusting Jia Fugui.

This matter was soon heard by his majesty. He was stunned for a while, and then burst into laughter.

Finally, he asked with concern: "people have not been tossed to death, have they?"

"No, I haven't lost any meat. There's only one hob meat!"

"That's good. Let them make trouble. Everyone is not happy when kid Qin comes up with such a thing. There must be a point to vent. Jia Fugui himself knows it."

"So it is."

The eunuch also laughed.

As for some unfortunate guy, it's none of his business how unfortunate he will be.

Of course, it's none of Qin Murong's business. He should know nothing about everything!

……

North of Daliang City, shanty town.

There are "idle" people from all over the country. Some people worry that they can't get money, so they ask around and dare not talk to those in charge.

Maybe the shopkeepers have also considered this problem, so they have actually prepared the roster, registered by person, divided the residential areas, and assigned special personnel to take care of them, and then paid money and clothes.

Some farmers are confused when they look at the money and clothes in their hands.

Money There are a lot of them, at least more than they expected.

The key is this dress!

Cotton mixed with flax, with diagonal dense weaving, inside and outside the total three layers, layer by layer.

It's wear-resistant and warm, and it's very comfortable to wear. It's much better than the rag like things on them!

Many farmers only have three sets of clothes in their whole life, not when they were young. They were left by the previous generation. At the rite of passage, the grandparents in the ancestral hall in the village would give them a suit of clothes. When they got married, the grandparents in the ancestral hall would give them another suit. When they died, the family would prepare one.

A lot of people have these three suits in their whole lives.

If you live a better life, you will have two more sets. They belong to multi-layer sets, three layers inside and three layers outside. The ones you wash frequently are the innermost and outermost ones. If you don't wash them in the middle, they won't be bad. The more you wash them inside, the softer they are. The more you wash them outside, the more loose they are. They are comfortable to wear.

However, compared with the suit in front of me, those things seem to be a bit petty.

"This What is this dress for? "

A farmer still asked the people concerned.

"Work clothes."

The shopkeeper said naturally, then waved his hand and said, "well, there are too many people here. Go down first and let others come to register."

"Wait!"

The farmer was in a hurry and said, "this Is this for work? You don't want to pit us with the clothes, do you? This We can't afford that! "
