Five Hundred and Eighty-Eight: Spendthrift Woman, Where Did the Money Go? (5)
The manager was so angry that he fainted, but he didn't know that Gu Xin also wanted to explode on the spot.
He knelt down in front of Jiang Pengji with guilt in his eyes, carrying a thorn stick behind him, and asked her to apologize.
Jiang Pengji helped him up forcefully, her face as usual, "Uncle Gu, what are you doing? Get up, do you want me to shorten my life?"
Gu Xin seemed to have aged a lot overnight. He couldn't resist Jiang Pengji and could only sit down with a guilty look on his face.
Feng Jin and others were all present. Most of them had met Gu Xin and knew how much he had contributed to Xiangyang County, so they respected him very much.
"Mr. Gu, what happened on the road and why did you..."
He was directly asking for forgiveness. He looked like he had not washed himself for many days. He looked very embarrassed. How could he lose his calm demeanor before?
Gu Xin said, "I betrayed my master's trust and accidentally messed up the things my master ordered me to do."
Did it go wrong?
Jiang Pengji frowned and said calmly, "Uncle Gu, what happened?"
Gu Xin frowned and said, "According to the owner's instructions, I took various colored glass objects to Zhongzhao to seek new business. It was fine at first, but after a while, Zhongzhao seemed to have a demonic wind, and all kinds of glass objects They were sold all over the streets and were sold at extremely high prices. Later, due to too many merchants selling them, the prices dropped from tens of thousands to hundreds of yuan..."
After hearing this, the expressions of everyone present suddenly changed, and Xu Ke was even biting his tongue in shock.
Fengyi County can have such a huge fortune, doesn't it rely on "rare" glass?
Now that the price of glass has dropped from tens of thousands to hundreds of yuan, and the price is still falling, they have no profit.
Xu Ke is in charge of Jiang Pengji's private treasury and knows this best. Others also know that Fengyi County is so rich that it cannot do without glass.
The audience in the live broadcast room was even more excited. According to Gu Xin's description, there was something fishy going on.
[The little angel is the cutest]: Holding the grass - what kind of method is this?
[520]: #picking your nose, what else could it be, it could just be a traitor. So far, only Anchor has perfected the craftsmanship of making glass. The sky is high and the water is far away in Zhongzhao. How could there be so many glass products in the mind?
【I Love You】: A traitor? But,
You have also seen how closely the anchor protects the glass manufacturing technology. Internally and externally, the anchor is strict and has a pair of piercing eyes. An Anwen has been buying glass for a whole year, why was the secret suddenly leaked?
[Double update today]: There is a high possibility of a traitor, but I think it is more likely that there is another time-traveling woman. You have also seen it, it is Zhongzhao again! Before Zhongzhao, the Four Books of Women appeared, which were exactly the same as the Four Books of Women in ancient China. Wen Chaogong copied 666. Now that the glass has been found, I wouldn't believe it even if there were no traces of the time-traveling woman.
[Ghost Guo Fengxiao]: According to Jia's analysis, in addition to the traitor and the time-traveling woman, there is another unlikely possibility - maybe someone accidentally burned the pottery and made the glass. It's just that the possibility is too low. Even if it is burned out, the technology is not that mature.
[Musician Zhuge Qinmo]: You are so shameless upstairs that you call yourself "Jia", why don't you call yourself "Fuck"!
There was a lot of discussion in the live broadcast room. They were not only curious about the truth behind this incident, but also worried about Jiang Pengji.
Destroying someone's wealth is like killing their parents!
Jiang Pengji swindled more than 20 million guan from Beijiang by relying on glass products. If this kind of thing hadn't happened, she might have been able to swindle tens of millions of guan from Zhongzhao. In the future, she wouldn't have to worry about money when conquering the world. Now she's been cut off How can she not get angry if she has a chance to make a fortune?
In fact, Jiang Pengji didn't really deliver much.
Compared to their gaffes, she had a calm expression of "I see."
She smiled and spoke helplessly.
"It's not Uncle Gu's fault. Do you think the glass-making method was leaked because of you?"
Gu Xin was surprised, and everyone here thought of a possibility - a traitor!
Glass is so profitable, who wouldn’t be jealous?
By burning a handful of sand, you can make tens of thousands of dollars in one instant, and the benefits are astonishingly huge.
While Gu Xin was thinking about who the traitor was, he felt extremely ashamed.
"There may be a traitor, but she probably didn't do it."
Because the time doesn't match up.
Jiang Pengji was very sure, but she didn't doubt it.
Even though there was no evidence, she already understood what was going on.
Jiang Pengji is not the only person in this world who has the ability to make glass.
she?
Everyone looked at each other, Lord, what do you mean, people already knew that there was a traitor, but they just pretended not to know?
"Then my lord..."
Without the glass business, what should they do?
"It doesn't matter. From this incident, we can see how stupid the person behind it is. Why should we be afraid?"
Jiang Pengji smiled contemptuously, not taking the so-called enemy into consideration at all.
Gu Xin was a businessman. He calmed down and thought about the flooding of glass in Zhongzhao. He couldn't help but shake his head. It was indeed stupid.
"What the owner said is that glass is cheap, but it is rare. Few people in the world know how it is made. If the production and sales are strictly controlled, even if you only have one kiln, you can easily become the richest man in the world, as rich as your country. It’s not just an idiot’s dream. That person was short-sighted and didn’t protect the method of glass firing, but instead allowed kilns to bloom everywhere... It’s really stupid.”
Gu Xin witnessed with his own eyes the price of glass in Zhongzhao plummeted from tens of thousands.
It is conceivable that the people who first fired it also wanted to make money, but they did not have the foresight and did not understand the greedy nature of merchants.
Such a huge profit is enough to risk one's life and fortune.
It was also driven by profit that caused Zhongzhao's glass to bloom everywhere and cause disasters.
Fortunately, when Gu Xin saw that things were going badly, he sold all the glass in his hands early at a price lower than the market price, and hurried back to Xiangyang County with the money. Even though he came back in embarrassment, he actually made more than 300 yuan. Wan Guan, a big businessman who specializes in trapping Zhongzhao.
Compared with businessmen like Gu Xin, how could those opportunistic businessmen be his opponents?
When Gu Xin saw that things were not going well, he sold out and left, making the last profit. The merchant who took over the deal thought he had made a lot of money, but he was confused when he turned around.
Xu Ke and others looked at Jiang Pengji with admiration.
Ask yourself, if they have such a way of making money and are abruptly cut off by someone, they will not only faint, but they will also become furious.
My lord is doing well, he is calm and relaxed, and he still has time to mock the enemies behind him.
"But my lord, I lost this way of making money..."
As the housekeeper, Xu Ke is the one who feels the most distressed.
"It doesn't matter, there is enough money in the private treasury anyway. If the public treasury is short, just take it." There is not much money in the public treasury, so she has always replenished it from her own pocket. Jiang Pengji said with a smile, "On the contrary, it is the imperial edict. After all this trouble, I'm afraid It’s time to run out of energy.”
Nationwide glass makers are crazy about making money.
The greater the quantity of glass, the cheaper the price.
The first person to eat this cake will be full of money, but those who follow the trend will be in bad luck.
The situation in Zhongzhao was already unstable, and the chaos caused by the party was fierce, and the people's lives became increasingly difficult.
Many people regard glass as a good way to get rich and get rid of poverty, so they will naturally follow the trend crazily.
Although glass firing is simple and low-cost, the brick kiln for firing has temperature requirements, and fuel also costs money. If ordinary people follow the trend, the final result will definitely be that they invest their savings and cannot earn even half a penny...
