Peerless Pirates

Chapter 493 Difficulties

"One-tenth, this is too little.

"Song Zheng sat on the chair, his face as cold as frost.

The time has come in March, the grass is growing and orioles are flying, and the spring breeze is whirling. The trading building and warehouse of Huitong Trading Co., Ltd. have started construction at the same time. The trading building is next to Yuhua Building, with a three-story pavilion in front and a large courtyard with two entrances in the back.

.The warehouse is located in the northwest corner of Jiangning City. Not only does it enclose a hundred acres of farmland, but it also builds three docks on the riverside for the future entry and exit of goods.

Starting two major projects at the same time cost a lot of money. However, the money Song Zheng and Xu Mingxuan earned in the casino, plus the capital of Lu Dafu and his son, were more than enough to meet these expenses.

With Huang Yue coming forward, the Ministry of Industry sent an assistant officer to contact Huitong Trading Company about the project, and everything went very smoothly. However, what Song Zheng didn't expect was that the contact with the big families was extremely unsatisfactory. Whether it was Xu

The family is still the Ji family, and they are only willing to give out one-tenth of the goods.

, traded in the trading house. And this one-tenth is only one-tenth of Jiangning City’s supply. Even Huang Yue’s mother family, the Bao family, only has one-tenth of the quantity. Several other families, see Bao

If the family is like this, they will naturally not agree to provide more goods for trading in the trading house.

Although Huang Yue was furious with anger, he had no choice but to do anything. He himself knew what was going on. It was not because the big families expected what was behind the trading house, but because Huang Yue's original reputation was too poor. These big families could provide ten percent of the price.

I just wanted to give the goods to this young master for fun. Although Huitong Trading House has a great influence in Licheng, it is really not worth mentioning to everyone in Jiangnan.

For example, the Xu family has purchased goods from the Dajin Forge at the trading house in Licheng, but compared with the Xu family's huge business, the little business of the Dajin Forge is really not worth mentioning. Because Daqi deliberately restricted the forge market.

The scale has even closed down the market several times, making this business dispensable. Otherwise, Xu Mingxuan would not have been sent to Licheng as a transporter (the latest chapter of Love Cactus).

Although Huang Yue is the eldest son of the prime minister's house, he never does anything serious. This time he wants to do something serious, but people can't believe him. Lu Dafu, who accompanied Huang Yue in "negotiations", even though he repeatedly explained the operating mechanism of the trading house

, and various "benefits", but these big

The family did not trust Huang Yue at all. Although he was very respectful on the surface, the disdain in his eyes was still easily caught by Bei Leye, who had transformed into a boy. In their eyes, Huang Yue was just a whim, and Lu Dafu

It's just a little rich man who had a sudden idea.

After several interviews with several major families, Huang Yue almost lost his patience. If his temperament hadn't changed drastically and Mu Yi was pressing him down, Huang Yue might have gone crazy on the spot.

Huang Yue played his big card but had no effect. Mu Yi and others gathered together and had no choice but to find Song Zheng, who had been hiding behind the scenes, to discuss countermeasures.

During this period of time, Song Zheng concentrated on training in Huang Yue's "Summer Resort" and paid no attention to the business of the trading house. He took two months' leave from the Forbidden Army, and when the vacation was about to expire, he was picked up by Huang Yue in a carriage.

Come to a private house.

"Xiao Lang, although those people say nice things, they just refuse to supply more goods." Mu Yi said with some shame, "The eldest son's uncle also scolded the eldest son, which makes people very depressed."

At this time, Huang Yue was sitting on the chair on the other side parallel to Song Zheng, with a sullen face and not saying a word. There were only blue veins on his forehead, and he was obviously very angry.

Seeing this, Song Zheng couldn't help but arouse Huang Yue's anger, so he turned around and asked, "Mingxuan, how is your Xu family doing?"

Xu Mingxuan also had annoyance on his face, but he still said in a deep voice, "I have called my uncle several times, but I didn't meet him until half a month ago. He didn't listen to my explanation, so he asked me to discuss it with Xu Mingsu on my own. "

Song Zheng frowned. He naturally knew about the grievances between Xu Mingsu and Xu Mingxuan. Xu Yinshun did this, which showed that he didn't take Xu Mingxuan seriously at all.

Sure enough, Xu Mingxuan said, "Xu Mingsu knew that I was on good terms with the eldest son, but he didn't dare to reject it outright. He just said to think about it (the latest chapter of Soul Refining in Prison). Just the day before yesterday, he gave me a reply, saying that he would give Jiangning City ten percent. One's silk business was dealt with by the trading house, but as for food, it was not mentioned at all."

Although Xu Mingxuan said it simply, judging from his face, the conversation with Xu Mingsu was definitely not that pleasant. This is also true. Although Xu Mingsu was intimidated by Huang Yue's "prestige" and did not embarrass Xu Mingxuan too much, but what he said was not so pleasant. The irony was strong. It would be okay for him to talk to Song Zheng in private about this kind of thing, but with so many people sitting together, he didn't want to publicize his family's scandal.

"Have you contacted their merchants?"

"We have contacted you." It was Lu Chun who replied, "We have some merchants who have dealt with us on Shandong Road, and they are very welcome to purchase goods at the trading house. Other merchants are still waiting to see."

This is easy to understand. After all, the supply of goods is mainly controlled by a few big families. Although these merchants are willing to buy things at the trading house, they do not want to cut off direct contact with the big families. This will prevent them from turning back and worrying about what to do if the trading house fails to open.

"These big families must be angry behind their backs, otherwise they wouldn't all call out for a tenth share." Bei Leye interjected, "If we don't break through one family, I'm afraid the other big families won't let go. of."

Everyone knows the relationship between Bei Leye and Song Zheng. When Song Zheng does not come forward, Bei Leye is half of Song Zheng's spokesperson. Therefore, even though he is young, no one dares to ignore him. On this occasion, he There is also a place for it.

Song Zheng glanced at Bei Leye approvingly, "Xiao Bei is right. To break this dilemma, we must first make a breakthrough. The key point must be chosen correctly." At this point, Song Zheng looked at it with a half-smile. Mu Yi.

Mu Yi smiled bitterly and said, "If Xiao Lang chooses the Bao family as his breakthrough point, I'm afraid he won't be very happy."

The Bao family is the wife of Huang Yuandu, and they mainly deal in cotton cloth and banking. The famous Datong Bank is the Bao family's industry. Datong Bank has a good reputation and has branches in major cities throughout Daqi (Demon Sword Chronicles). The money notes it issues are extremely popular in the market and can basically be used as cash.

In addition to banknotes, the Bao family also has another business, which is cotton. Unlike the silk that the Xu family mainly sells, cotton has a huge market among the middle and lower classes. After all, ordinary people cannot afford to wear so many silks and satins, and cotton is more expensive than silk. Linen is naturally much more comfortable. Therefore, the Bao family's cotton business is very large. Huitong Trading House does not involve a bank, but the cotton business is necessary. Like the Ji family's salt, cotton is also a necessity for the people.

The person in charge of the business of the Bao family is named Bao Zhiqing, who is Huang Yue's uncle. Likewise, he is the cousin of Huang Song's mother, Bao Lianqing, and Huang Song's cousin, who now lives in Yangzhou. In order to facilitate the business of Huitong Trading,

Huang Yue once took Mu Yi and Lu Dafu to personally

I went to Yangzhou for a trip. However, Bao Zhiqing was not used to Huang Yue, his close nephew. He always thought that Huang Yue was the reason why his sister Bao Yiqing was so angry. Therefore, he didn't have a good look towards Huang Yue. As for Lu Dafu

, Bao Zhiqing didn’t even see him.

Huang Yue was naturally extremely angry. However, Huang Yue also knew that the cause of his mother's death was too important and did not dare to speak out, so he suffered in vain. Perhaps Bao Zhiqing felt that his nephew had finally done something serious, so he finally gave him a ten percent

One piece of cloth came. Presumably the Ji family and the Xu family heard some rumors and decided on this amount accordingly.

"Did you get the inscription written by the Holy One?" Song Zheng asked again.

"Not yet." Huang Yue said helplessly, "I am worried about this matter. Yesterday I mentioned it to him, and he just asked casually and wanted to write. The dead eunuch next to him suddenly said, give it to uncle Guo

What kind of large brush should I use for my inscription? He also said that the emperor was too tired from studying, and his writing power might be affected.

It would be better to wait until he is in good spirits before writing. The little emperor actually listened to him, saying that he was afraid that he would not be able to write well for me, his uncle, and would wait until he was in better spirits to write again. However, I feel that this guy is old and has bad eyesight.

My hair is straight, so I can't hold on to anything anymore." Huang Yue's face looked very depressed.

"Which father-in-law ruined our good deeds?"

"It's the one named Xiao Guizi."

Sure enough, it was him! Song Zheng sighed secretly. As the saying goes, God's calculations are not as good as those of others. The money in the cabinet became the little emperor's personal eunuch, and he ruined Huang Yue's good deeds easily (read the full text of 1622).

How could Song Zheng not keep in mind the fact that the cupboard was filled with money and he became a little noble son? When he had a deep conversation with Li Hongniang a few years ago, he asked about it. But Li Hongniang didn’t know much. At that time, Jiang Kui had ordered her to

The nobleman's sister, who had just gained some insights during the investigation, unexpectedly received an order from Jiang Kui to stop the investigation.

It wasn't until half a month ago that Song Zheng returned to Jiangning City from the manor and met with Li Hongniang. During their chat, Li Hongniang mentioned that Zhongguiren's sister was now working as a maid for Princess Pang Wei.

Song Zheng was extremely shocked by the news. He immediately understood why the money in the cabinet came to the palace, and he also understood that the maid Xiaoying he had saved twice was Qian Xiaoying from the same village as him.

With Pang Hui's scheming, he would definitely not place a cabinet full of money next to the little emperor for no reason. There are so many smart little eunuchs in the palace, why would only a cabinet full of money become the personal eunuch of the little emperor? It must be Pang Hui.

There was a secret push in the palace. As for keeping Qian Xiaoying in the palace as a maid, it was also a way to control the money in the cabinet.

Song Zheng knew very well about the money in the cupboard. He had destroyed his lifeblood, which was regarded as a life-or-death feud. And in the Qian family's "family extermination case", the murderer pointed directly at Huang Song. Needless to say, the money in the cupboard

I definitely hate the Huang family.

Damn it. This time, Huang Yue wanted to borrow the pen of the little emperor and inscribe the name "Huitong Trading Company". The money in the cabinet took the opportunity to embarrass Huang Yue. It must be said that the money in the cabinet was very smart, and he actually used the spirit of the little emperor.

Provide persuasion on the grounds of poor performance.

Huang Yue didn't know about Song Zheng, the story of the Huang family and the money cabinet. Although he was a little depressed, because Xiao Guizi was right, he didn't expect that Xiao Guizi was just using tricks. However, Song Zheng couldn't tell Song Zheng about this grudge.

Huang Yue made it clear. It would save Huang Yue from going crazy and thinking of ways to deal with the little noble son. In that case, Huang Yue would never get another inscription from the little emperor.

"The matter of the Holy Inscription can be postponed for a while." Song Zheng thought for a while and then said, "But for the Bao family, there is no need to delay."~
