Medical Brocade Concentric

It is true that the Lu family claims to be the number one imperial merchant in the world, and it is true that it has a big backer, but it is not to the point where it can run rampant in the world and do whatever it wants.

The worst thing is that Mr. Lu has already accepted the goods. Seeing the cooperation for many years and the face of Prince Ning's Mansion, the other party agreed to live in the capital for more than half a month and wait for the payment.

Mr. Lu is eagerly looking forward to the two uncles and nephews bringing back the in-demand goods to cash in. Who knew it would happen!

It has never happened before, how could such a problem happen to Lu's cargo ship! How did it just happen to happen this time!

"I think there is something strange about this matter. How could it be such a coincidence! How could it be such a coincidence? Check it out, check it out for me! Please help Prince Ning's mansion and check it out for me!" Eldest Lu was so angry that his liver ached.

Master Lu Er and Young Master Lu were shocked, and their faces changed slightly. Yes, why didn't they expect it? It was a coincidence.

"Don't worry, brother, I'll handle this matter myself. If I'm asked to find out who is behind the scenes, I won't let her go!" Master Lu Er gritted his teeth.

The first person he wanted to investigate was of course Xu Rongyue and Mingyuelou.

He secretly thought it was a pity, if Mingyue Tower didn't have the background of Dingjun Wangfei, maybe he could take this opportunity to take it down, and he shouldn't be too skilled in such things as taking advantage of the fire.

It's a pity that both Princess Dingjun and King Dingjun are not easy to provoke, and he dare not mess around.

Mr. Lu sighed. It will definitely take a long time to find out the ins and outs of this matter, and customers outside the customs can't wait that long.

It is necessary to raise 300,000 taels of silver to others first.

Three hundred thousand taels is not a small sum.

The plates of the Lu family were spread too wide, and everyone envied him, and he was the number one imperial merchant in the world, so he would never dare to ask others to borrow money easily.

Let alone whether you can borrow 300,000 taels, once the news spreads that your family can't even pay 300,000 taels, firstly, his Lu family can't afford to lose face, and secondly, it's unknown what will be spread. Woolen cloth.

At that time, people's hearts will definitely be unstable. First, it will affect the business of each store, and second, the cooperative merchants will also be suspicious and hesitant. Merchants will definitely come to ask for loans that are not due.

Thousands or tens of thousands of taels is not a big sum. One or two families may be able to handle it, but what if there are more than one or two families? Can you still handle it?

The more Mr. Lu thinks about it, the more frightened he is. If such a chain reaction continues, the Lu family will be doomed!

Why are those bastards of the Cao Gang so courageous! Lu's things dare to move! If he wants to find out that someone is really making trouble behind his back, he will definitely tear him to pieces!

Money cannot be borrowed. Recently, there are two payments that can be returned, but the sum is less than 100,000 taels, and there are other odd and small expenses recently. Counting one in and one out, there are about 50,000 taels left , still short of two hundred and fifty thousand taels.

After thinking about it, Mr. Lu gritted his teeth, and decided to take out two hundred and fifty thousand taels from the Lu family's bank first, and deal with this matter first.

Lu's Bank is the largest bank in the capital, and a certain amount of turnover on the book cannot be changed, but in addition to this, there is a reserve of 300,000 taels for emergencies.

In fact, normally, the reserve fund in the bank should be at least 500,000 taels, but the Lu family is rich and powerful, with huge financial resources and the backing of Prince Ning's Mansion, and everyone is willing to trust them, so 300,000 taels is enough.

Even so, the Lu family would embezzle one or two from time to time, but they quickly made up for it, and nothing happened.

At this time, Mr. Lu couldn't care less.

Two days after the customer outside the pass left with 300,000 taels of silver, rumors spread in the capital out of nowhere.

It is said that something happened to the Lu family! The cargo ship Jiangnan returned to Beijing was destroyed, and the goods worth millions were burned to ashes. Now there is only an empty shell left in the Lu family, and all the money has been lost! Therefore, if you need to pay, hurry up and ask for it, and if there is no supply, you should take it easy.

The news spread so well that people couldn't help but believe it.

The Lu family was very angry, and they went everywhere to find out who spread the rumors!

Instead of checking, all kinds of information were passed on in more detail.

Some people couldn't sit still, and a group of three or five people went to the shopkeeper of the Lu family and complained politely. The small business needed money urgently. Please take pity on the Lu family and pay the owed money first. .

In the past, if such a person dared to go to the Lu family to ask for money, the shopkeeper of the Lu family would have a cold face and ordered the account to settle the debt immediately, and he would never want to cooperate with the Lu family again in the future!

In the past, the Lu family had this kind of confidence, but now, there is only a lack of confidence.

The sum of the arrears of this group of people is not much, just over 20,000 taels. The shopkeeper of the Lu family gritted his teeth, settled the payment, and ordered the people to drive him away without any politeness, so that he would not be able to cooperate with the Lu family again.

Although these people were a little regretful, they still took the money and left. None of them said that they would pay back the money and begged for continued cooperation in the future.

Originally thought that after seeing this, other people would definitely not come again, but unexpectedly, something happened to Mei Yunxuan again.

Those customers who placed large orders all sent people to urge the goods one after another. The quantity they wanted was huge. Mei Yunxuan used to have the Lu family as a backer, and he was doing business at a loss. Now the Lu family can't afford it. The money has come, what compensation will Mei Yunxuan take?

Without money to buy raw materials, how to produce?

The amount involved in these orders has reached nearly 50,000 taels of silver, the Lu family can't take care of themselves now, how can they care about Mei Yunxuan?

So, the rumors spread even more!

More people couldn't sit still, and rushed to Lu's house to ask for the balance.

Sure enough, the supplier tried every means to complain about the delay and refused to continue supplying.

The Lu family is in a state of desperation, and it seems that they will be unable to cover it.

At this time, the most fatal blow came, and the bank ran out!

Countless customers who had previously deposited money in Lu's Bank flocked to ask to withdraw their silver. Where does the Lu family still have money to pay?

In an instant, nothing could be covered, like a long dike collapsing, falling apart!

Overnight, almost all the shops of the Lu family were closed, and the gold, silver, jade, porcelain and various treasures in the warehouse were carried out one by one to pay off the debts. Other courtyards, fertile land, and even shops had to be sold off.

After all the creditors were dealt with, the strength of the Lu family was severely damaged, not to mention empty, at least 60% of the huge wealth was gone.

In addition, the reputation has been severely damaged, the supply chain is broken, and the capital flow is insufficient. The stores cannot open their doors at all. If they want to start the business again, they still don't know how much money they need to invest in it as start-up capital to repair the entire supply chain. completely.

Lu's house was full of gloom and mist.

Prince Ning's Mansion is also very angry, but on the surface, Prince Ning's Mansion can't do anything, and Prince Ning's Mansion can secretly support Lu's family in business matters, and it's impossible to end in person.
