Chapter 170 Zhu Youxiao's big move, food prices collapsed?
Chapter 170 Zhu Youxiao makes a big move and food prices collapse?
Wang Wenyan did not dare to lose and could not lose.
The same goes for other businessmen, who cannot lose.
If you lose, all your early investment will be wasted.
If you win, it will be 100% profit, or even 1,000% profit.
Ma Taizu once said - if there is 10% profit, it is guaranteed to be used everywhere; if there is 20% profit, it will become active; if there is 50% profit, it will take desperate risks; for 100% profit, it will dare to trample
All human laws; with 300% profit, it dares to commit any crime, and even risks being hanged.
The profit they estimated was not 300%, but 1,000%.
In the past, they were all looking forward to it, just waiting for the people's grain reserves to be exhausted in a month or two, which would be the time for them to harvest. Now, they don't want to believe that Zhu Youxiao is here to stabilize grain prices.
Now, they are very willing to believe Wang Wenyan's words. The Dog Emperor just wants to make money, and he definitely does not want to stabilize food prices.
Besides, even if the Dog Emperor wants to stabilize food prices, so what?
As long as all the food released by the dog emperor is eaten into the stomach, wouldn't it be good?
"Everyone, besides, what if the emperor really starts an investigation? How to investigate? How to investigate?"
Wang Wenyan continued: "In any case, how to investigate, and who can the emperor ask to investigate? We have already established connections in the capital, and how many people still expect us to make a fortune for them?"
Wang Wenyan was still worried and continued to patch them.
Collect money and use some of your own wealth.
Wang Wenyan was also furious. He had left a lot of reserve money before, but now he has put it all out.
As much food as the Dog Emperor sells out, they will eat as much food as they want.
Then, Wang Wenyan quickly wrote another letter.
Some of the silver was transferred from the south to the capital.
Zhu Youxiao's behavior must not be allowed to disrupt the market.
The food on the market was quickly consumed.
Soon, the grain supply at Fugui Grain Store will bottom out. You won’t be able to buy even grain at five times the price, and the price of grain will start to rise again.
ten days later
"These profiteers, they are really rich!"
When Zhu Youxiao looked at the memorial sent by the Statistics Department Yamen, his expression couldn't help but start to change.
Ten days later, Zhu Youxiao opened up the food supply.
But these guys really didn't disappoint Zhu Youxiao, they could eat them all.
"The most terrifying thing is that they actually increased the price seven times to purchase grain!"
Zhang Haogu also sighed, and looked at Zhu Youxiao and said slowly: "They really have a lot of money in their hands. I estimate that they invested at least eight million taels of silver this time!"
Zhu Youxiao squinted his eyes and said: "Eight million taels, even the imperial court does not have so much money after being issued the Lian Lian Yin!"
"It's really hateful that you are so rich and don't pay taxes. If you pay taxes honestly every year, I don't have to work so hard to get money in the Ministry of Household Affairs!" Zhang Haogu also muttered a few words with great dissatisfaction.
Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but laugh and said: "Master, you are very capable. Didn't you get this money?"
"What I need is not such a big deal, but a tax system that can continuously provide me with money in the long term!" At this point, Zhang Haogu spread his hands: "Speaking of which, Taizu is still too much.
Too kind!"
Zhu Youxiao said: "Master, don't worry, you and I, the monarch and my ministers, will definitely be able to create a prosperous world together!"
"It will be as the emperor wishes!" Zhang Haogu changed the topic back: "Now, I have asked Fugui Grain Store to reduce its external supply and instead sell the grain to other grain stores at high prices!"
Having said this, Zhang Haogu made a fist with his right hand and smashed it hard on the palm of his left hand: "Just wait for them to eat them all!"
Zhu Youxiao hesitated for a moment, looked at Zhang Haogu and said, "Master, how much money did we make this time?"
"If they eat all the food we have left, it will be about this number!" Zhang Haogu held out four fingers: "Four million taels, it shouldn't be too much!"
"So many?" Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but widen his eyes.
"They have invested a lot of money, so naturally they don't want to lose money!"
Zhang Haogu smiled and said: "Nowadays, the price of food in the market has increased to more than seven times its original value. They still want to persevere. Persistence will be the time to make money in the end!!"
Zhu Youxiao thought for a moment and said: "It's almost done, we can't let the food price continue to rise!"
Having said this, Zhu Youxiao slowly said: "Tomorrow, I will go to court to officially give this Chen Jinglun a count!"
Then, Zhu Youxiao suddenly couldn't help laughing and continued: "In addition, I am organizing a special sweet potato banquet, inviting all civil and military officials to stay in the palace to eat, and at the same time, I want to quickly let the news out.
Let’s see if the price of food will fall or not!”
"Your Majesty!" Zhang Haogu said with a smile: "It's just that these guys are going to hate the Emperor to death!"
"If you hate it, hate it. These dog officials are knocking the people's bones and sucking their marrow. They are making money, but it is my country that is in chaos. How can I spare them? Today I just let them lose some money. In the future, if they dare to act recklessly again, I will
, and their titles will be abolished!”
Having said this, Zhu Youxiao clenched his fists and said coldly: "I can say it and I can do it!"
Zhu Youxiao went to court
This is a new thing for civil and military officials.
After all, it seems that the last time Zhu Youxiao went to court was the last time.
In addition, Zhang Haogu's party also came to court. For this group of people, the Donglin party was really speechless.
It's so presumptuous. How can you say that you won't go to court if you don't want to go to court?
These meritorious groups in the Ming Dynasty have basically watched the internal struggle between Zhang Haogu's party and the Donglin Party. They are nobles and belong to the privileged class of the Ming Dynasty. Although they are not as wealthy as their ancestors, at least they are
, no matter who wins, neither side dares to attack them.
Making money is making money, and there is no need for them to participate in the infighting between civil servant groups.
The Donglin Party did not dare to do anything to them, and the Eunuch Party did not dare to do anything to them either.
It's just that the battle in court today was a bit big.
All the fifth-rank officials arrived.
In addition, Wang Wenyan, a member of Zhongshushe, was specially named and received the order from outside the palace.
"Go to court today!"
Zhu Youxiao slowly said: "I still have something to discuss!"
As he spoke, Zhu Youxiao waved his hand and said: "Send it up!"
