The Super Summoning System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 519 Empty Gloves White Wolf

Wei Xiaokuan found Xun You and Mi Zhu, and told Xun You about Liu Bian's plan, Mi Zhu knew about it beforehand.I was not too surprised, and Xun You did not agree with the business war for the first time. It was not until Liu Bian said that he used money from his private treasury to borrow money from businessmen, and that the war was run by him and Wei Xiaokuan, that Xun You felt relieved. concerns.

Xun You is also confident that if he operates by himself, he will lose a lot of encouragement, instead of using the state's money, there will be no loss. If he loses, he will teach Liu Bian a lesson.After all, this son of heaven is arbitrarily arbitrary, thinking that every time he goes out is one time, although he continues to succeed, it is too risky. Whether he wins or loses this business war, it is good for Liu Bian.

Explain to Xun You that Wei Xiaokuan and Xun You continued to improve Liu Bian's draft, and Mi Zhu borrowed business knowledge to perfect the commercial steps.

In one night, the plan was finally perfected. At dawn, Xun You and Mi Zhu took their leave. Wei Xiaokuan used Jin Yiwei to summon Zhu Min from Chang'an, Wang Lin from Bingzhou, Su Shuang from Youzhou, and Zhang Shiping to Luoyang.

At the residence of the Luoyang Commercial Department, several business leaders gathered together. They were quite nervous at the moment. It would be fine if Mi Zhu invited them to come, but now it is Jin Yiwei who invited them to come.A few people were worried that Jin Yiwei would be bad for them, and they were all fidgeting.

Mi Zhu stepped in, and the four of them breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Mi Zhu. Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping traveled all over the world and had a good personal relationship with Mi Zhu.This is why the Ministry of Commerce was established, and they supported the establishment of the Ministry of Commerce.Su Shuang hurriedly asked: "Mi Shangshu, what is the reason for Jinyiwei to invite us here? I asked along the way, but he just didn't say anything, which made me frightened and frightened. I was so scared that I was out of my mind. I have always been law-abiding."

Mi Zhu laughed loudly and said, "It's not a bad thing, it's something good that benefits you."

Several people were overjoyed. They actively supported the establishment of the Ministry of Commerce, took the lead in joining the Ministry of Commerce, and obtained a large share of sales of ceramics and fine wine. Now there is a good thing, how can they not be tempted?Several people asked quickly, Mi Zhu sold out and asked them to meet someone.

Liu Bian walked out from the back of the palace, Mi Zhu immediately saluted Liu Bian and called him Your Majesty. Several business leaders were shocked, it was His Majesty who wanted to see them?Several people hurriedly saluted and bowed in fear.

Liu Bian sat on the grand teacher's chair in the master's seat, and said with both hands: "You don't need to be polite, please sit down."

The four of them sat down in panic, not knowing that Liu Bian had a purpose for looking for them, Liu Bian said with a smile: "Several, I have something to ask you to do, so I call you here at will."

The four were overjoyed when they heard this, did the emperor order them to do things?Doesn't this owe them a favor, which can make a lot of money.It's just that even the emperor can't do it. If they need to do it, can they do it?
Seeing that several people were both happy and worried, Liu Bian said with a smile: "What I asked you to do is what you are good at, creating public opinion, driving up prices, and hoarding."

When the few people heard this, they quickly knelt down on the ground: "Your Majesty, we abide by the law and will never dare to do such things that endanger the country. Please learn from your majesty!"

Liu Bian smiled lightly and said, "I didn't ask you to do these things in my territory. I asked you to go to Jizhou. It's the wheat harvest season. I just heard the news that the harvest in Jizhou this year is very bad. I asked you to go to Jizhou." , spread news, create chaos, drive up prices, and buy food."

When the four heard it, it turned out that the emperor wanted to use their power to destroy Jizhou.The four of them breathed a sigh of relief, but they all kept silent. If they really went to Jizhou, it would be dangerous to do such things, and they would need a lot of working capital. The commodity economy is underdeveloped at the moment. I will also hurt my muscles and bones.

And there are benefits, the emperor let them do such a dangerous thing, at least there must be benefits.

Waiting for a price is the psychology of the four people at the moment.

Liu Bian saw that the three were silent, not knowing what they were thinking, and said immediately: "You go to Jizhou, and I will send people to cooperate with you. Don't worry about safety. After this is done, your descendants will be eligible to take the imperial examination. .”

"Phew!" The four people's eyes flashed. Merchants have no chance to participate in government affairs. In the past, the system of promoting filial piety and honesty was not in the hands of businessmen. Later, the imperial examination system also excluded them. Give them where they can not get excited.

But these were not enough, the four of them still remained silent, and Liu Bian continued to increase his chips: "In addition to the share of the imperial examination, you can reduce your business tax by [-]% in the future, and go to ceramics, fine wine, etc. I still have a lot of goods in my hand. If you help me successfully complete this matter, those products will be sold by you, and you will occupy the bulk."

At this time, the four of them could no longer calm down, and they all nodded and agreed: "It is our duty to serve His Majesty."

The [-]% commercial tax deduction may seem like a small amount, but the commercial law imposes heavy commercial taxes.It’s okay for ordinary businessmen to have low incomes, but Big Macs like them may pay millions of dollars a year in taxes. It turns out that the money they earn will only be done for more, and after three to five years, the taxes they pay will be worth their annual income.

And their products are handed over to them, and the agency side occupies the bulk, which is another huge cake.The four agreed without hesitation, for fear that Liu Bian would go back on his word.

"It's just that my national treasury is empty now. I spent countless gold and silver in the first battle to destroy Yuan. In addition, agriculture is developing everywhere, so I really can't spend much money. Do you think you..." Liu Bian strikes while the iron is hot at this time, blackmailing These people come.

"This..." The four of them looked at each other in blank dismay, secretly thinking that things are really not that easy, the emperor is still young, and the ability of the empty-handed white wolf is really powerful.

If you want to use the commercial war to create chaos in Jizhou, you can only start with the commodities that everyone needs.That is grain. During the period of Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty, the price of grain was fifty yuan per stone. Later, the price of grain became more and more expensive until Liu Bian reorganized the Han Dynasty. Under Liu Bian’s rule, the price of grain was reduced to one hundred yuan per stone, and the price control was very strict , but the harvest is not good, once the merchants drive up prices, they will be severely punished.

But in other areas, the price of grain is extremely high. Take the time when Yuan Shu ruled, the highest price of grain was thousands of dollars a stone, and there was no market for it. Even if you have money, you can’t buy grain. It’s useless to ask for money, and money is worthless. I can't support people anymore.

Under Yuan Shao's rule, the current grain price ranges from [-] to [-] yuan, and now that Jizhou is in short supply, the grain price may increase.

And to create chaos, including driving up prices, we have to run our own operations to buy food from the market. If the price is fair, the food I harvested in Jizhou can still be sold under Liu Bianzhi, which is not a loss.But the price of grain in Jizhou is now more than double that of Liu Bianzhi. Can the grain they harvested in Jizhou be sold under Liu Bianzhi at a par price?It is obviously impossible, that is to say, the food they harvested in chaos in Jizhou can only be eaten by themselves, and they cannot be sold.

But in a general sense, as long as the chaos caused in Jizhou is large enough, although this is an invisible and intangible benefit, it is far more valuable than the money lost.Using money to make Jizhou shattered and chaotic, the people fleeing, and the soldiers have nothing to eat, this is far better than sending troops to attack.

This is equivalent to using money to fight a big victory against Jizhou, and Liu Bian said that he will not pay the money, and he wants nothing but nothing.

The faces of several people turned dark, and they hesitated again. Mi Zhu on the side stepped forward and whispered to several business leaders: "Aren't you satisfied? Your Majesty wants you to show your loyalty. As long as you help His Majesty complete this matter, The benefits in the future can be said to be inexhaustible, and you have to care about the little gains and losses in front of you, don't make big losses because of small things. If you don't agree, I'm afraid your majesty won't give you the benefits of ceramics and fine wine."

One sang red face and the other sang bad face, these businessmen gritted their teeth and agreed: "We will pay for this operation!"

Liu Bian said happily: "Okay, I will guarantee your safety when you go to Jizhou this time. If you succeed, I will reward you greatly. If you fail, I will compensate you for your losses."

The four nodded in agreement, but they knew clearly in their hearts that if they succeeded, they would get a lot of benefits promised earlier, but if they failed, they would compensate for the losses. Can't fail.

"Mi Aiqing, you call Xiaokuan Gongda to tell them the specific operation and details. I'm going back!" Liu Bian waved his hand and left the business station.

After Liu Bian left, Wei Xiaokuan and Xun You came to the Ministry of Commerce to discuss with these merchants how to operate and how to cooperate with each other.After the discussion, these people sent their deputy back to their hometown, mobilized the manpower in the chamber of commerce, and went to Jizhou with money. As for them, they couldn't go back to their hometown until everything was ready and they went directly to Jizhou to operate.

Two days later, Liu Bian summoned Lu Zhi, Cai Yong, Tian Feng, Xun Yu and other core ministers to discuss the matter of dealing with Jizhou.

This matter cannot be said at the court meeting. The fourth and third members of the Yuan family still have Yuan Shao's eyeliner in Liu Bian's court. If this matter is discussed at the court meeting, someone will definitely inform Yuan Shao, so it is necessary to discuss it in secret. .

Liu Bian summoned these confidants into the study, and discussed the matter of destroying Jizhou with a commercial war.When Liu Bian announced his plan, he was strongly opposed by Lu Zhi, Cai Yong, Tian Feng and other ministers.

Liu Bian explained: "I don't need to pay anything for this plan, because this time the expenses are borne by the four major chambers of commerce. It can be said that it is an empty-handed wolf. But if it succeeds, it will be a big victory against Yuan Shao invisibly." , why not do it. And this plan is a joint action between Xiaokuan and Gongda, it will be foolproof, why not do it."

"White wolf with empty gloves, doesn't need to spend money from the treasury? What's going on, Your Majesty?" Cai Yong was taken aback, and then asked specific things.
