Zhu Jiuye got off the car outside the corner gate, entered the corner gate, and went straight to the small courtyard in the corner of the back garden.
Zhu Jiuye went straight into the upper room and gave his father Zhu a gift. He hurriedly said: "Dad, I can see clearly this time. I am playing the same tricks as in Pingjiang City. I teach peasant women to weave and weave on credit."
Give them the opportunity and collect the cloth to offset the debt.
"No wonder they only picked on the old, weak, sick and disabled. We were careless. What should we do now?"
"Humph." Mr. Zhu snorted coldly, "It's just an idea to lay eggs by borrowing chickens.
"This kind of business will be a bleak operation if it doesn't work. If it does..." Mr. Zhu snorted again, "With a capital of more than ten or dozens of taels of silver, you can squeeze in and get a share of the scraps.
When the time comes, they will definitely come together in groups, and when the time comes, they will be making wedding clothes for others."
"Dad is right, but we weavers are so irritated that we, the weavers, are taking advantage of them for nothing." Zhu Jiuye was very angry.
"It's nothing. It's just that I was careless, but it's not all careless." Mr. Zhu folded his hands on his stomach, "At that time, Pang Xiang hadn't replied to the letter yet. Your eldest brother has always been in charge of the capital side.
Don’t allow others to interfere.”
Mr. Zhu paused in his words and sighed deeply.
Zhu Jiuye sighed.
The prince suddenly revolted. It was too sudden. The silk shop and his eldest brother's house were all confiscated. Until the day when the eldest brother was executed, he and his father tried their best, but they could not see his eldest brother, nor could they get even a word from him.<
/p>
"Brother is always cautious." Zhu Jiuye sighed again.
His eldest brother is a cautious person. He handles all the important personnel matters with the government himself and never relies on others. Nowadays, no one knows how many personal relationships his eldest brother has. All these are buried with his eldest brother.
Into the underground.
"Let's not talk about it anymore." Mr. Zhu waved his hand, "We were wrong this time. We shouldn't have been like this. We were too cautious step by step, which was exactly what they wanted."
"What about us?" Zhu Jiuye leaned forward slightly.
"Tell all the weaving mills that since the work is suspended, there is no need to support the weavers in vain and let them kneel at the yamen gate to beg for food." Mr. Zhu said calmly.
"Ah? What if the government allows the weaving workshop to sell weavers?" Zhu Jiuye's eyes widened.
"If the government says to sell them, they will be involved in the sale." Mr. Zhu sneered, "That's one, and two, the autumn silkworm cocoons will be harvested in about ten days. Tell all the weaving mills that since work has stopped, they can't do it."
There is no need for cocoons and silk, not a single cocoon is harvested!"
Zhu Jiuye blinked and said slowly.
He understands, this is a two-pronged approach!
There are no less than 100,000 weavers in the weaving workshops of the Jiangnan Silk Industry. These 100,000 weavers are not easy to buy and raise. Add in the autumn silkworm cocoons and press them down together. If you want to take over, it is not just a matter of money! p>
"Son, I understand. I'll do it right away!" Zhu Jiuye shouted and stood up.
………………………………
Zhou Chennian rushed to Li's house just after lunch, and Wan Qing came with Zhou Chennian.
Wan Qing went to the backyard to see Sister Mei planting autumn vegetables, while Zhou Chennian and Li Xiaonan were talking.
"The old man here is named Yu Chengfu, and he is a powerful man."
Zhou Chennian got straight to the point. Li Xiaonan made a cup of tea and put it in front of him.
"Yu Chengfu's mother and the mother of the Pingjiang Silk Industry Association said they were cousins. When Yu Chengfu was two or three years old, his mother carried him to Pingjiang City and went to Pingjiang City to join this cousin.
"Yu Chengfu and his mother were placed in a large courtyard in Ruifufang, and Yu's mother went to the weaving workshop to get a job as a handyman.
"Look at this arrangement, this relative is either very far away, or the relationship between the cousins is not very good."
Zhou Chennian smiled and commented.
"Yu Chengfu was taken into the weaving workshop by his mother when he was two or three years old. It is said that Yu Chengfu was very smart and courageous. When he was sixteen or seventeen years old, he became the steward of the weaving workshop.
"Yu Chengfu has a good appearance. It is said that since he was fourteen or fifteen years old, people have been proposing to marry him. When he was seventeen or eighteen years old, he saw that he was becoming more and more promising, and those who proposed to marry him had crossed the threshold. Chengfu just kept silent, until later, the proprietor of Yunshanfang, Zhuang An, took a fancy to him.
"Yunshanfang is an old business. The weaving workshop is not big. Zhang Youan only gave birth to a daughter and a son, so he is not very smart.
"Zhang Youan divided the small weaving workshop into two, leaving half to his son and half to his daughter as a dowry. The dowry half is now Yu Chengfu's Fuyunfang.
"President Shi of Pingjiang Silk Shop is ten years older than Yu Chengfu. When Yu Chengfu was very young, he was very good at flattering his distant cousin. After getting married and having his own weaving workshop, Yu Chengfu still followed him. Same as before, flattering Chairman Shi in front of the saddle and behind the horse.
"When the previous old president of Pingjiang Silk House was about to step down, it was said that everyone was surprised when Chairman Shi came forward to compete for the position of president.
"President Shi is timid and timid, and he doesn't have much foresight. After taking over his father's position and becoming the boss of the industry, he always shrinks to the back of the line and doesn't dare to say much about anything in the industry, hehe."< /p>
Zhou Chennian chuckled.
"Thanks to Chengfu, President Shi won the position of president without much effort. President Shi became the president, and Yu Chengfu became Yu Xinglao.
"President Shi has been sitting in the position of president for almost ten years. Where there is President Shi, there must be Mr. Yu Xing.
"After Yu Chengfu became a businessman, the number of looms in Fuyunfang doubled. How many looms were added in Fuyunfang and how many looms were added in Yunshanfang. The looms in Fuyunfang and Yunshanfang can be doubled. Times, because the original Yunshanfang was too small, with only about twenty looms in total.
"I think, first of all, that Yu Chengfu's great talent can only be limited to the Jiangnan Silk Company's strict control over the weaving workshops. He has nowhere to display his talent, and he must be very frustrated."
Zhou Chennian narrowed his eyes slightly, then clicked his tongue for a moment.
"A talented person cannot display his talent."
Li Xiaonan smiled and nodded. She knows what it feels like.
"Second, as much as Yu Chengfu's Fuyunfang has added looms, his brother-in-law's Yunshanfang has also increased by the same amount. It is said that the amount obtained in some years is an odd number, that is, one more loom in Yunshanfang, Fuyunfang There is one loom in the shop.
"Yu Chengfu is either a good character, or he is extremely scheming and can be both a traitor and a loyal person. Either way, he can be used."
Zhou Chennian looked at Li Xiaonan with a smile and said, "I thought that even if you are a treacherous person, you can still be a loyal girl."
"I think he should have a good character." Li Xiaonan said with a smile.
"Well, I heard that Yu Chengfu has been busy with Chairman Shi's affairs for a while. He just came back from Hangzhou the day before yesterday. He went to Linhai Town yesterday, but he didn't see Chairman Shi. Mr. Huang in Linhai Town is awesome. Very good, watertight.
"When does the girl plan to meet Yu Chengfu?" Zhou Chennian looked expectant.
"I have to go to Linhai Town first to talk to Mr. Huang." Li Xiaonan said with a smile.
"Does the girl have a relationship with Mr. Huang?" Zhou Chennian raised his eyebrows.
"Mr. Huang's predecessor was the magistrate of our Kunshan County, and we met several times. I'm going to Linhai Town now, just in time to catch Wanqing's car." Li Xiaonan stood up as she spoke.
Zhou Chennian stood up and followed him. He really wanted to follow him to Linhai Town, but after hesitating and hesitating, he still couldn't say it. It was not appropriate for him to follow.
