Chapter 521 Shanxi Merchants

In this dilapidated carriage shop, people dressed in silk gave him a voluntary greeting and had to pack nearly two thousand people and thousands of horses for food and accommodation.

I have to say that it is too generous and too bizarre.

Since He Jinchao left Juyongguan, he has never seen the Ming official army taken seriously by the merchants along the way.

There is nothing else, there are people behind you, you can't afford to offend.

"I didn't plan to pay for staying in a hotel."

He Jinchao shrugged and ignored the businessman in front of him.

Tian Shenglan laughed twice: "June Jun is quick and speaks quickly. Listening to June June's accent, can it be from Qin and Jin?"

"The Qin people have made a living in Jin."

Tian Shenglan nodded quickly: "I am also from Jin. I have come out of my family since I was a child. I have only done some small business in Zhangjiakou for so many years. I have gained a firm foothold. We are half of our fellow countrymen."

Hearing this, He Jinchao raised his eyebrows, a businessman from Jin?

Get a firm foothold in Zhangjiakou and do some small business.

The key is that it is also generous, which is quite interesting.

When you go out, your relationship is mostly about getting to know relatives and fellow villagers.

This is how people can quickly become familiar and unite together.

"Today I have benefited half of your fellow countrymen."

Tian Shenglan invited He Jinchao and others to go to the restaurant for dinner with a smile on her face, and He Jinchao shook her head: "No need, I will eat whatever my subordinates eat."

Hearing this, Tian Shenglan felt more and more that this group of officials was not simple, so how could the Ming Dynasty officials do this?

He saw countless officials passing by Jimingyi, and this was the first one.

Especially the soldiers under his command, almost all looked at people with nostrils and were so arrogant that they seemed to have just done something big in the palace, and they didn't take anyone seriously.

As a businessman, it is a basic operation that is not versatile, but talks about people when they meet others, or talks about ghosts.

Tian Shenglan said the praises in her mouth as if she didn't have money.

Then he sat next to He Jinchao according to the standards of the big cart shop, eating delicacies and pancakes and rice porridge.

"Master Liang, is it a horse sold when you go to Zhangjiakou this time?"

"What, you want to accept it?"

Tian Shenglan laughed and waved her hand quickly, "How can I buy horses? It's all the court that can buy and sell them."

His tone changed again: "The villain has known some friends in Zhangjiakou for so many years. If Mr. Liang wants to take action, I can also help build a bridge. It is sure that he will make more money than Mr. Liang himself."

The reselling of military horses is very common among the Ming Dynasty's official army.

Among the nine borders, the Yansui Cavalry is probably the most promising, and it was stolen and sold by former general Wu Zimian.

Now they all have become Gao Yingxiang's subordinates.

Tian Shenglan felt that Liang Pu’s military discipline was nothing. As long as he was a human, he had to have things needed and weaknesses.

That will pull them into the water and use them for your own use.

Now he wants to steal and sell military horses, and he is required to require money. At that time, any shopkeeper under his command can come forward.

In any case, the left hand is turned to the right hand.

He Jinchao put down the quickie in his hand and smiled:

"Shopkeeper Tian, ​​when I was in Shanxi, I heard that many Shanxi merchants were making a living in Zhangjiakou and made a fortune. The old house at home was renovated so grandly."

"Hey, it's all hard money that you earn from going south and north." Tian Shenglan shook her head and said:

"Shanxi has been uneasy recently and has traveled south and north to the north. A friend of mine went back to his hometown to worship his ancestors. He hasn't come back yet, so we dare not go home."

He Jinchao laughed twice: "Governor Zhang Zongheng, the Governor of Xuanda, is speeding up the training of troops, and the Governor of the Three-Borders, Hong Chengchou, is speeding up the extermination of the bandits in Shaanxi. I am afraid that it will not be occupied for too long, and you will be able to return to your hometown."

"I hope."

Tian Shenglan felt that according to the combat effectiveness of the official army, the hammer bandit leader He Jinchao must not be easily wiped out by the official army.

Although he was in Zhangjiakou, he had sent people to investigate the situation in Shanxi many times, and Huang Yongfa from Jiexiu County sent people to pass the qi.

The strength of the hammer bandit leader He Jinchao is even clearer than those officials in the capital.

He Jinchao was not sure if the person in front of him was one of the eight major merchants of Shanxi. He only knew one with the surname Fan.

Shanxi merchants controlled the Mongolian business road, and for bitter and cold places like Mongolia, the business road is like blood vessels.

The motivation of the Jurchens was also very simple. They not only had to transfusion blood for Shanxi merchants, but also wanted to win over Shanxi merchants and control the Mongolian Plateau.

Huang Taiji was also planning, but now Sun Chengzong is restoring the Daling River. He is busy dealing with Sun Chengzong, but he has not yet taken time to deal with Lin Danhan.

The Shanxi merchants provided food and iron tools information to the Jurchens to support Huang Taiji's robbery of the Ming Dynasty. Then Huang Taiji spent the robbery of silver on the Shanxi merchants, forming a closed loop.

"Who is the Mongolians outside Xuanfu stationed?"

"The main trade between the old mandu is the old mandu, Yong Xie Bu Dacheng Taiji, Haha, Qing Badu, Yin Ding Dao Erhan and other tribes."

He Jinchao looked at the rough wooden table and said, "Take it serious?"

Tian Shenglan laughed twice: "In fact, it was the Mongolian Khan Tiger Dun Rabbit. Datong was beaten to pieces by him, and the merchants almost didn't leave much.

As for the Shanxi mutual market sites controlled by Hammer He Jinchao, although He Jinchao wants to trade.

But not many merchants went there, and even if many Mongolian people gathered outside, they could not exchange much.

All the trading sites in Liaodong were closed, and the Jurchens had no place to trade with each other.

Only this Zhangjiakou mutual market has become a hot commodity. Mr. Liang is confident that he can make a lot of money when he comes here."

Now this is the buyer's market.

He Jinchao's mutual market point in Shanxi also lowered his own profits, did not give middlemen the opportunity to make a difference, and did not have sufficient supply, how can he win?

The Shanxi merchants used Zhangjiakou as their base to collect goods from all over the country of the Ming Dynasty, and then traveled between inside and outside the customs to engage in trade trafficking activities, and transported large quantities of food, clothing, cooking utensils and other basic daily necessities to the Later Jin regime.

Nurhaci treated them unfairly and exchanged valuables such as ginseng, deer antler, and animal skin to each other.

All the gunpowder needed to start a war, 80% of the grain and more than half of the metal were needed for succession to Huang Taiji.

This is a win-win deal. It was through the Shanxi merchants that the Later Jin Dynasty turned robbed property, antiques and gold and silver into food to feed the captured population and give the slaves the chance to farm.

He Jinchao nodded slightly, and it seemed that his cheap father-in-law Lin Danhan was stationed outside Xuanfu.

He could also be sure that the Jurchens would definitely be able to do business in Zhangjiakou.

Only the officials of the Ming Dynasty would not recognize who was the traded tribe outside. As long as you give money, everything would be easy to say.

It is really normal for foreigners to impersonate others to trade here.

Gao Yingxiang glanced at He Jinchao, would you do it now and burn the entire Jiming Office? In short, all these goods were sent to Zhangjiakou.

He saw several oil shops outside, which could be used as fuel.

He Jinchao had a smile on his face: "Shopkeeper Tian, ​​I'm still going to go to Zhangjiakou in person to see the fun."

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say." Tian Shenglan also smiled: "Mr. Liang wants to take action, so he has to compare the products to make a deal."
