One Hundred and Thirty-Eight: The Heart Is Too Black to Wash (1)
"But you reminded me of one thing. ≠≥≥≥≥≠≠=≈≥≥≈" Jiang Pengji frowned as she thought about something interesting, the corners of her lips curled up slightly, With a pervasive smile, "The sage has a saying, don't take advantage of the bastard, this is indeed a good opportunity."
Xu Ke bluffed his lips, unable to speak in astonishment.
Which saint said such vulgar and rascal words, stand up and not beat him to death.
Since Jiang Pengji decided to do something, she definitely needed the original capital. As for how to use a series of methods to roll such a small amount of original capital into a big snowball, and even shake the entire world, she already had some direction in her heart.
From Xu Ke's standpoint and personality, it is impossible for him to encourage himself to exploit and oppress ordinary people. In other words, if this kid really has any ideas, the knife for slaughtering fat sheep in his hand will definitely be aimed at the nobles and squires... Is this going to be black and white?
For a while, several very classic self-made cases flashed in her mind.
Although the two eras are quite different, the profit-seeking nature of human beings is the same.
Jiang Pengji always had a smile on her face, "Tell me about your plan carefully. If I think it's good, I can consider adopting it."
Her words obviously aggravated Xu Ke's itch, and with a flash in his eyes, he immediately put aside the prejudice that had arisen in his heart... Let it go, his husband's temperament is a little out of tune, but this Temperament is extremely appetizing, especially in terms of employing people.
Just focus on this point, even if Lang Jun's temper is out of tune, he can hold his nose and bear it.
Xu Ke cupped his hands and said, "Ke has offended you, please come forward."
Yo——it seems that the content is really great, and I am going to whisper.
Jiang Pengji took a few steps forward with a smile, and Xu Ke lowered his voice and said, "Before I answer you, Ke has something I hope you can clarify. Where did you know about the civil disturbance in Meng County, Cangzhou, and when will it spread?" Hejian and neighboring counties?"
She thought for a while and said, "At first I heard it from Wenzheng. You don't know Wenzheng yet, but he is also an extremely interesting person. His words are presumably also from a merchant from Meng County. I heard from him. I heard from him that the Meng family’s army is so powerful that they even sent troops to lock up Meng County, deploying troops at various checkpoints in Cangzhou, saying that they wanted to catch the rebels..."
The mobility of the refugees must not be so fast, but the merchants who go to the merchants are different. They travel from south to north and have their own caravans. Many news are spread through them.
Meng Jiajun can detain and delay them, but they can't really detain them and prevent them from going into business.
After all, Cangzhou can have such a prosperous scene today, but it is inseparable from these caravans traveling north and south.
However, even if these merchant caravans can leave Cangzhou and bring the news to the outside world, these people will be beaten again and again before they leave. Most merchants are afraid of the power of the Meng family in Cangzhou and rely on profits here. Will keep silent.
The remaining small number of merchants may simply stay away from Cangzhou after this incident because they have a strong foundation in Cangzhou.
It is these merchants who are traveling in business that it is possible to spread the situation of Cangzhou Mengjun to the outside world.
"Is this news reliable?" Xu Ke asked.
"Reliable, absolutely reliable."
Thinking of the master and servant Meng Ting in the mansion, Jiang Pengji's lips curled into a bloodthirsty smile.
There is no more evidence for the military chaos in Meng County, Cangzhou. Can it be more credible than this pair of master and servant?
Xu Ke mused, "The spring plowing has just ended for less than a month now. If we wait for the incident in Meng County, Cangzhou to break out, I'm afraid we will have to wait for the summer planting, and it is far from the autumn harvest. It probably took more than half of the time. If this matter really breaks out, the common people will be panicked and buy and stockpile rice, so why would the unscrupulous rice merchants miss this good opportunity?"
As the saying goes, if you have food in your hand, you don't panic.
If the news of the military chaos in Meng County of Cangzhou is completely spread, how will the people react?
Think about this question with your toes.
Xu Ke could even imagine how much food prices would soar by then.
This is not unfounded, he has not only witnessed that scene once when he was young.
My mother sewed, mended, washed clothes for others, and sold the few acres of crops she planted. The little money she saved for a year of hard work could not even buy 20% of the previous grain. five times or more!
How can those merchants and rich households with rice granaries in their hands care about those people who can't afford rice and can only suffer from hunger?
Years of drought and waterlogging in Dongqing caused a severe shortage of rice and grain. Ordinary people who couldn't afford it could only dig weeds and tree roots, and even eat Guanyin soil.
He has been a ranger for a period of time, hoping to be a chivalrous hero, he has traveled a lot of places, and the scenes he saw with his eyes are even more shocking.
"Businessmen seek profit, and it has existed since ancient times." Jiang Pengji said, "It's not unusual, but I'm even more curious. Are you trying to do nothing?"
Xu Ke was stunned, and immediately said with admiration, "White wolf with empty gloves? Your words are exquisite."
She said firmly, "If this is the case, you will need a batch of rice for operation."
Xu Ke's eyes lit up, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Although it is against the way of a gentleman, Ke promises that he will never hurt the common people."
"What did you promise me? Are you afraid that I won't agree?" Jiang Pengji smiled suddenly, and said under Xu Ke's astonished gaze, "I originally thought that you need to change your temper so as not to antagonize me, but in the end You are the one who suffers. Looking at it now, it is quite right!"
Before Xu Ke could speak, she added, "This man, he can't suffer from anything. I also like white wolves with empty gloves."
Jiang Pengji had guessed Xu Ke's scheme in her heart.
In her era, this kind of strategy was estimated to have been played by a businessman when she was a child. However, in this era, it is extremely bold and out of the ordinary. Everyone in the world regards merchants as cheap and looks down on them. Did not think about how to calculate.
Xu Ke, as expected of the accountant she had her eye on, is a good hand in managing internal affairs, and now she has awakened a bit.
His strategy is similar to that of stock trading, but it is more rough, and the information transmission is backward, so there is a lot of room for manipulation.
"However..." Jiang Pengji changed the subject and said in a somewhat embarrassed manner, "The key is where can we get such a large amount of food?"
The smile on Xu Ke's face froze, that's right, although his method is good, he can make a lot of money in 100% of the way, but the rice grains needed to start the operation are not easy to get together, let alone empty The glove is a white wolf... His embarrassing cancer is about to happen.
He is full of confidence in this strategy, and he will definitely earn a fortune for the gentleman, but he ignores the most basic conditions.
[Sugar Stir-Fried Chestnuts]: 233333333 Forgive me for not being able to help laughing. Seeing the anchor and the boy Xu Ke talking about strategies in a serious manner, and then getting stuck on the most basic conditions, they looked at each other. Emoticons are gone. (To be continued.)
