Chapter 541: Disadvantages of a lot of money

Views:

Hearing this, Mu Chong and Meng Weizhong looked at each other and nodded decisively: "Everything is at your command..."

Qian Le stared at Mu Chong and Meng Weizhong with a look of astonishment, and lost his voice: "If there is nothing to make money, you are willing to do it?"

Mu Chongqing coughed and said meaningfully: "In my opinion, this is a stable and uncompromising sale."

"Earning can be earned... But after spending so much manpower and material resources, just earning a little, it's not worth the gain."

Qian Le said dissatisfiedly.

Mu Chong glanced at him, but said nothing.

Kou Ji did not pay attention to the dialogue between Mu Chong and Qian Le, and continued lightly: "In addition, I also need you to help the people raise some walnut, pomegranate, grape and other saplings."

Mu Chong and Meng Weizhong nodded decisively.

Qian Le spoke intentionally, but after seeing Mu Chong and Meng Weizhong nodding their heads, he could only nodded sullenly.

Kou Ji ordered them more trivial things, and then sent them out of the palace. When they were parting, Kou Ji said to the three of them: "You have rushed to Shazhou all the way, rest for a few days and then work, don't worry about it."

The three agreed and left the palace.

After leaving the palace, Qian Le blocked Mu Chong and Meng Weizhong with a huge body, and said with a gloomy expression: "Brother Mu, Brother Meng, our three families have met for generations. The three of us have also worked together for many years.

For the sake of years of friendship, can you two tell me, are you hiding something from me? "

Mu Chong and Meng Weizhong fell into silence.

After a long time, Meng Weizhong sighed, "Brother Qian, how much money have the three of us made since we entered Bianjing?"

Qian Le blurted out almost without any hesitation: "Forty million tons... Textile workshops, textile machine forging workshops, wrought iron workshops, Yizijiaozipu, every business is a business that makes money every day."

Meng Weizhong sighed: "Forty million cans. For generations of our ancestors, without eating or drinking, we may not be able to make so much money. In a few years, we will make more than 10,000 yuan. Through."

Qian Le nodded in agreement.

Meng Weizhong continued: "It is a good thing to have money, but if it is too rich, it is not a good thing. Now in the Song Dynasty, there are only two people who have more money than us.

One is the official family, and the other is the bureaucracy.

The official family is the lord of the world and sits on the world. It can be said that all the money in the world belongs to him. No matter how much money he has, no one will say anything.

The Kou staff is the official's confidant, and as long as the official allows him, even if his family is wealthy, it is nothing.

But the three of us are different.

To put it mildly, we are the three great merchants of the Song Dynasty.

To put it harder, we are three rich flat-headed people.

There is no big background, but he holds a lot of money.

Many people looked at us with jealousy. "

When Qian Le heard Meng Weizhong's words, he probably understood why Meng Weizhong and Mu Chong were so abnormal.

Mu Chong took over Meng Weizhong's words, and said bitterly: "When we first cooperated with the Kou Li Department, the scene described by the Kou Li Department in controlling the world's money and controlling the world was very moving for us.

But at this point, I found out.

I feel like sitting on pins and needles. "

Meng Weizhong sighed, "When Yizijiaozipu's money exceeded ten million guan, we have already gained the power to control the world. But, on the other hand, there is also a knife hanging on the head."

Mu Chong nodded and said: "Now I understand that being rich is not a good thing."

Qian Le said with an ugly face: "Why do you have this idea?"

The words of Mu Chong and Meng Weizhong were very pessimistic, and Qian Le was frightened.

Mu Chong stared at Qian Le and said, "Brother Qian remembers the new chief steward in my house, but remembers the number of big shopkeepers in Brother Meng's house, but remembers the eighth concubine in his house..."

Qian Le's eyes widened in astonishment, and he stammered: "They... They..."

Mu Chong's sad voice said: "They are all people in the palace."

"how come?!"

"Heh... why not?"

Mu Chong sneered and said: "A big steward, working in Bianjing city, has more face than me. Several big shopkeepers help Brother Meng allocate the goods, and they can actually mobilize the official ship of the water transportation. And the eighth in your house. Lady, I just wanted to ask Brother Meng to come over and have fun, so I was taken to Jinmingchi and practiced vigorously for seven days and nights.

Except for the people in the palace, who can do this

They didn't hide anything, but just let us see them and let us know that someone in the palace is staring at us. "

Qian Le lost his voice: "Why don't I know?"

Meng Weizhong sighed and said, "The person in your house should not have a low status in the palace, so there is only one person in your house. You are only busy doing business on weekdays, and you don't have time to take care of the back house.

As long as that person does not reveal the flaw, you will not notice it at all. "

Qian Le said in horror: "How could this be?"

Mu Chong sighed and said, "I also want to know how this can happen. After thinking about it, I realized that it is because we have too much money and because we are too greedy.

When you entered the city just now, the folks you saw were gold ingots one by one.

The folks we saw were a kind of urging knife. "

Qian Le said in horror: "So you don't hesitate to lose money, but you also want to do things for the bureaucrats, just to spend money to save your life?"

Mu Chong nodded slowly, and said, "In fact, the Western Regions can do too much business. If the Kou officials can open up tens of millions of acres of fertile land in the Western Regions, we can make a lot of money every year from the grain business.

In addition, the cattle and sheep that were entrusted to us by the officials and the people can produce a huge amount of fur every year.

We can buy it at a low price near the water.

The profits are far more than what our textile workshop earns. "

Meng Weizhong sighed: "We can see the money close in front of us, but we dare not take it."

Qian Le stared at Mu Chong in disbelief.

Mu Chong looked at Qian Le and Meng Weizhong and said, "I have prepared to sell the members of the textile workshop and the members of the forging steel workshop to the Kou Mansion at a low price. From now on, I will only keep the members of Jiaozipu and the members of Shuzhong Silk. business.

I'm not going to get involved in other businesses.

From now on, I will put out a sum of money every year to subsidize the imperial court through the Ministry of Corruptors. "

"Dock tail to survive?!"

"Dock tail to survive!"

Qian Le and Meng Weizhong said in unison.

Mu Chong nodded and said: "For the sake of years of friendship, I remind you two to prepare early. Don't wait until the court's knife is down before you do it. At that time, it will be too late."

"Only keep the word Jiaozipu members?"

"Only keep the members of Jiaozipu."

"..."

"If you don't hand over the members of Yizijiaozipu, the three of you will not be far from death..."

Inside the palace.

Kou Ji stood on the stairs with his hands on his back, and sighed.

Kou Ji can see the abnormalities of Mu Chong and Meng Weizhong.

Kou Ji guessed roughly, and then guessed the original abnormality of the two.

When he made a request, but did not say anything in return, Mu Chong and Meng Weizhong agreed without hesitation.

That means they already know that money is not a good thing, but money is a disaster.

If it weren't for no one to threaten them and intimidate them behind their backs.

According to their greedy nature, they would never see this.

The two most profitable businesses behind them, the largest shareholder is Zhao Zhen.

Only Zhao Zhen himself was the one who dared to threaten him and scare them under the protection of Zhao Zhen.

"In the beginning, it is very likely that the old man Chen Lin placed someone in private and monitored the three of them. Now, it is possible that the official is doing the sword himself."

Kou Ji thought, muttering another guess of his own.

If Chen Lin was threatening and intimidating the three of them.

The three of them will never appear in Shazhou.

If Chen Lin wanted the members of Jiaozipu in their hands, she would never let them leave Dasong until they got it.

According to Chen Lin's scheming temperament, he would never let the people under his hands be exposed before he did not deal with the thoughts of the three of Mu Chong.

If the people under his hands are not exposed, then the three of Mu Chong will not feel any threat or intimidation at all.

After removing Chen Lin, Zhao Zhen was the only one who was capable and dared to threaten and intimidate the three of them in the Song Dynasty.

Only Zhao Zhen could dare to let them leave the Song Dynasty while threatening them.

Because Zhao Zhen is not afraid of making mistakes, nor is he worried about making mistakes.

What if the three of Mu Chong escaped from the Song Dynasty by taking the opportunity of going to Shazhou

Who could dismiss Zhao Zhen from his imperial throne because of this incident

Kou Ji figured out the joints in it, smirked, carrying his hands on his back, walking towards the side hall, and smiling: "The official family has really grown up, and you can see the importance of the word Jiaozipu, too. Knowing that Yizi Jiaozipu shouldn't be in the hands of anyone other than him.

It's just that the methods are a little rough, but they are stronger than his ancestors.

Did not rush to exterminate, and did not frame up.

Instead, they left a way for Mu Chong to survive.

It's just that the three of Mu Chong, I am afraid it is not so easy to compromise.

They will never give up a golden rooster laying eggs. "

Back in the depths of the side hall, after sitting down, Kou Ji's smile was thicker, "Speaking of which, I also have a character Jiaozipu in my hand, I just don't know if you want to take it away."

"Even if you want it, I won't give it to you. Because you can't hold all of this stuff in your hands. If someone tricks you into messing around with a word, the people of that day will suffer."

"..."

Just when Kou Ji was muttering.

Liu Heng stepped into the side hall and saw Kou Ji sitting there with a low laugh, talking to himself, Liu Heng's face was stunned.

"Four brothers?!"

"Are you hysteria?"

Hearing this, Kou Ji slowly returned to his senses, and gave Liu Heng a look, "You are just hysteria..."

Liu Heng said suspiciously: "Then you just..."

"I made a poem and chanted it myself."

Kou Ji said angrily.

Liu Heng nodded suspiciously, "Fourth brother, I have checked the information you asked me to check. The documents sent by the court are mostly from a month ago, and there is no document mentioning the name of the sister-in-law."

Kou Ji frowned and said solemnly: "Send someone to remind you to see if it is delayed."

Liu Heng naturally knew that Kou Ji was worried about his children, so he didn't dare to say anything more about this matter, and immediately nodded in response.

Kou Ji felt a little irritable and waved his hand to let Liu Heng leave.

When Liu Heng walked to the door of the side hall.

Kou Ji seemed to remember something, and told Liu Heng: "You send someone to tell the supervising army, let them arrange a reasonable time, and arrange some days off for the civilian husbands.

Every ten days, every civilian husband can rest for one day.

In addition, people were sent to spread the news among the civilian husbands, saying that there was a city outside of Shazhou city.

If they have anything they want, they can go to Wazi City to buy it during the day off. "

Liu Heng nodded in response and withdrew from the side hall.

Kou Ji was left alone in the side hall.

Days go by day by day.

The fertile fields outside the city are increasing day by day.

In just one day, the city of Wazi, just established in the outer city, was sold out by rich civilians.

The three of Mu Chong had to send people to escort carts of cattle and sheep skins, as well as special products of the Western Regions, to return to Song Dynasty to replace the goods.

When the other folks were resting, they took money and rushed to Wazi City, facing a street full of people but not much goods.

The goods of the three of Mu Chong had been robbed long ago. Only some handy civilians woven baskets and other items on the street were selling, and some of the game hunted by the civilians on the way to open up wasteland were selling.

The folks complained about this, and Kou Ji couldn't help them solve the problem, so he could only pretend that he couldn't see it.

Under the same encounter.

Some people are sighing all day long, while others are walking forward with a heavy load.

While the other civilians were opening up wasteland while waiting for the goods replaced by the three of Mu Chong to be shipped back; some people had already made enough money with their own skill and clever mind.

That was a man about 30 years old who had decided to stay in Shazhou.

He has a pair of skillful hands and a shrewd mind.

He taught his wife how to weave baskets and baskets, and taught his wife how to choose the tree strips from the trees to weave baskets.

Then he ordered his wife to recruit a large number of familiar women to weave baskets together.

Finally sell the baskets and baskets.

In exchange for money, wages were given to the women.

The surplus became his income.

After he saved enough money, he spent money to hire people to build a few civil-structured houses in the woodland he had allocated, and when the new house was completed, he was ready to marry his three wives in accordance with the Han ceremony.

When the invitation card made of animal skins was handed to Kou Ji's hands.

Kou Ji looked confused.

"There are people who are preparing to get married, and invite me to be a witness?"

Kou Ji stared at the crooked characters on the animal skin, and asked in disbelief that Liu Heng and Fan Zhongyan were standing in front of him.

Liu Heng handed over the animal skins, and Fan Zhongyan came to report another incident to Kou Ji.

Liu Heng heard Kou Ji’s question and nodded with a smile: "Yes..."

Kou Ji squeezed the animal skin and said in disbelief: "This guy named Lin Zhicai, what's the background, actually let you, the bestowed official of the five ranks, run errands for him himself?"
