Ever since Cui Jiuming came back from Su Ren, he has become lighter and lighter. Businessmen are all smart people. Although I don't know what good things have happened to Cui Jiuming, just looking at the usually steady president, he seems to have become a fool.
This good thing cannot be trivial. One by one, they went to Cui Jiuming to inquire about the news. This time, Cui Jiuming was very strict. No matter how the merchants tried to talk, it had no effect.
The shopkeeper of Yongye Company was one of the first members of the Shuzhong Chamber of Commerce and had inextricable connections with the Cui family. Cui Jiuming's distant cousin's nephew's third aunt's nephew, his aunt's third daughter-in-law's brother's child married
He is the nephew of the shopkeeper of Yongye Trading Company. It is impossible to say that this relationship is far away, but in the eyes of the shopkeeper of Yongye Trading Company, he and Cui Jiuming are relatives, and they are the kind of people who are closer than their children and their in-laws.
Shopkeeper Yongye smiled: "President, has General Su agreed that we can go to Mayi?"
Cui Jiuming chuckled: "That's natural. This is what Brother Su said before. He will not go back on it now. However, Brother Su must not treat the soldiers badly. They have made great achievements this time. Who dares to follow them again?"
He won't be polite if he grabs something from his hand."
Shopkeeper Yong Ye nodded repeatedly: "That's natural. Although we are merchants, we are also Han people. The soldiers have made such contributions, why should we reach out again? I swear first, if I harm those soldiers, I will let the old man do it.
Cut off your descendants!"
This oath is by no means harmless, but some people laughed and said: "Don't talk nonsense, old guy. Your third concubine has given birth to eight sons for you, and you have no descendants. Who the hell can believe this?"
"Hahaha..." There was a burst of laughter in the room.
The shopkeeper of Yongye Company also laughed. Cui Jiuming also smiled. He knew that although this was a joke, no one dared to do anything nonsense at this juncture. If someone sued them, it would not be surprising to describe it as a family being destroyed.
If the Emperor is angry and annihilates all nine tribes, it will be complete. Merchants are for the purpose of making money, but they must clearly distinguish what money should be made and what should not be made. This is what Su Ren said in Shu.
Said in.
When the city of Mayi calmed down, the soldiers suddenly discovered that there were many merchants in the military camp. These people were wandering around the military camp arrogantly. When they met people, they would ask if they had captured anything, or if they had received any rewards? When they got an affirmative answer
After that, the merchants smiled even sweeter, and they were busy asking them to take out the seized items, and if the price was right, they could trade them immediately.
A simple and honest soldier held a small red stone in his hand, and shyly approached the merchant in front of him. The guy only glanced at it, then looked up at the simple and honest soldier: "Brother, how much do you want to exchange for it?"
The honest soldier shook his head and said he didn't know. The merchant laughed and said, "How about I give you this number?"
The merchant held out three fingers, and the honest soldier quickly shook his head. The merchant smiled and changed the number of his fingers again, this time holding out five fingers. The honest soldier nodded with satisfaction. This was a successful business.
, the soldiers were happy, and the merchants were also happy. However, the troubles that followed made the soldier somewhat uncomfortable.
It turns out that the five fingers of the merchant are not five coins as the soldiers thought, but a full five hundred coins. Five hundred coins is a huge amount of money, and it must be kept with you. A small pocket with money is as big as a human head, and it is hung on the waist.
Time became a problem. The march was going well, but what should we do if there was another battle? If unfortunately he died in battle, who knew who would get cheaper with the money? Therefore, the soldiers were worried.
There are many people who are as troubled as this honest soldier. The reasons are different and the situations are similar. In short, suddenly a huge sum of money falls in front of him, and he is reluctant to let it go. Just when these soldiers are uncomfortable
At that time, as the former city lord of Mayi City and now a member of the army of the Dang Kou General's Mansion, Sang Hongyang, the representative of the Sang family in Luoyang, stood up.
He called all the soldiers who had too much money and had no choice but to use the reputation of the Sang family and Su Ren, plus the reputation of the court as guarantee, to ask the soldiers to hand over the money to him, and he would be responsible for sending people to deliver it.
When you go to their home, of course there will be some fees, but it’s not much, just 1 out of 20.
After hearing this, some people thought it was feasible, some were waiting and watching, and some were doubtful. Sang Hongyang was not impatient and explained to those people over and over again. It was the honest soldier who sold rubies who stood up first, carrying his own
Five Hundred Dollars walked up to Sang Hongyang: "Sir, are you serious?"
Sang Hongyang chuckled and said, "Of course."
"Well, can I send the money back home to my mother for me?"
Sang Hongyang looked at the honest soldier: "Are you from Shu County? Those who don't believe in me should believe in General Su. To tell you the truth, I did this because of General Su's suggestion. General Su has you in mind.
I was afraid that you wouldn’t be able to send the money back home, so I used the imperial court as a guarantee. Some losses are inevitable after traveling thousands of miles, so there is really no other way to draw 1 out of 20.”
The honest soldier nodded repeatedly: "Since you were sent by Mr. Su, I don't believe you. I will trouble you to send these five hundred dollars back for me!"
With the first person, there is the second person. It didn’t take long for all the money transferred from the hands of the merchants to the soldiers to go to Sang Hongyang. Looking at the money in the room, Sang Hongyang was happy
His face was blooming. As long as the money was sent to the place, it would be a big expense to draw one out of twenty. He had already calculated that, excluding the wear and tear, he could still save about thirty thousand money.
Su Ren was standing next to Sang Hongyang, frowning. Sang Hongyang glanced at Su Ren: "General, what do you think is wrong?"
Su Ren shook his head: "How many people have asked you to give money recently?"
Sang Hongyang nodded quickly: "Of course there are, and there are more and more. After listening to the general's words, I have already sent money back to some people nearby, and brought back receipts from their homes. From that point on,
No one doubted that there was anything wrong with what the general did. More and more people came every day, and more and more money was made."
"Do the merchants still have money?"
Sang Hongyang was stunned: "Merchant? I haven't paid much attention to this. It seems that there are no less than 200,000 soldiers here. Even if no one gets a piece of money from the merchants, it will still cost 200,000 yuan. Even if there is still money, I'm afraid it won't be much."
Already."
"Then you haven't thought about lending the money to those merchants?"
"Lending it to merchants?"
Su Ren nodded.
Sang Hongyang also came from a great merchant family. After Su Ren mentioned this, he immediately understood and looked at Su Ren with his eyes open: "What do you mean, general?"
"I don't mean anything. I'll leave this matter to you. You can think about it yourself. If there's anything unclear, we can discuss how to manage and operate it. You can do it yourself. I'll tell you something here. If this matter can be
If it’s done well, I’ll tell you this, and the result will last forever.”
Sang Hongyang was a little excited and respectfully saluted Su Ren: "Thank you, General, for your advice!"
Just when Cui Jiuming and other merchants were counting the money in their hands and couldn't bear to give up what they had seized from the soldiers, Sang Hongyang came. Although the Huns were poor, they had nothing to eat, and gold, silver, jewelry, etc.
There are quite a few. These things were just playthings in the Xiongnu, but when they arrived in the Han Dynasty, they became very valuable in a blink of an eye. Take the ruby for example. If you buy it for 500 yuan, the merchant will make at least double the profit, so who doesn’t want to get more of it?
No one knows whether there will be another chance.
Cui Jiuming looked at Sang Hongyang fiercely: "What are you doing here? All our money has gone into your hands. Are you here to embarrass us?"
Sang Hongyang was an officer affiliated with Su Ren, and was naturally an acquaintance with Cui Jiuming. He smiled and said, "It's not like I robbed President Cui of his money. What's more, I'm sending money home for the soldiers' lives. What's the point?"
wrong?"
"Then why don't you go and send the money quickly? What are you doing here?"
"Come to give Chairman Cui money? Forget it if you don't want to!"
"Send money? What kind of money?"
Sang Hongyang sat next to Cui Jiuming and turned to look at the servant behind Cui Jiuming. When Cui Jiuming heard the money was given, his heart was moved, and he quickly ordered Sang Hongyang to be served tea. Drinking the tea from Shu County, Sang Hong
The sheep is in a good mood.
Cui Jiuming couldn't help it anymore and took Sang Hongyang's arm: "Speak quickly! You kid is so anxious!"
Sang Hongyang chuckled: "President Cui is short of money. Where can I find the money? I wonder if President Cui is interested in lending me money? Of course it can't be borrowed in vain. One out of ten will be drawn. Such an interest rate is unprecedented."
"really?"
Sang Hongyang took a sip of tea: "Do you think I will lie to you because I have nothing to do? In that case, I will take my leave and President Cui will stay!"
Cui Jiuming immediately smiled like Maitreya Buddha. He quickly grabbed Sang Hongyang and asked his servants to prepare the meal. At the same time, he called all the people from the Sichuan Chamber of Commerce over. Cui Jiuming was not a fool, so he naturally guessed that Sang Hongyang dared to do this.
, there must be the shadow of Su Ren. So he is not afraid of suffering a loss. Even if he suffers a loss in the end, he will just treat it as Su Ren owes him a favor, and he can still afford to pay tens of thousands of dollars.
A large group of merchants gathered around Sang Hongyang and talked all night long. Except for the parties concerned, no one outside knew what was discussed inside. Anyway, everyone who came out had a happy face, while the other merchants who looked at it were worried and frightened.
These people from the Shuzhong Chamber of Commerce are so abominable. Not only are they independent, but they are also united. No wonder they can create such a big battle in such a short period of time.
The next day, Sang Hongyang released another message. If the soldiers were willing to temporarily leave the money with him, instead of taking the money for safekeeping, they would also give some money. No more than 50 and one draw, which means you put 50
Give the money to Sang Hongyang for temporary safekeeping. The custody period is one year, and it will become fifty-one dollars by then. At the same time, Sang Hongyang also guarantees that even if you have an accident, the money will not be lost. The one-year period
It will still be sent back to your home if it is full, and no fees will be charged.
With the lessons learned from the past, soldiers are out all year round and have few opportunities to make money. They have the same idea as the merchants. Who knows if there will be such an opportunity next time. Since money can make money, many people have not given up. Originally, there were some demands.
The people who sent money back all found Sang Hongyang, hoping that they could temporarily hand over the money to Sang Hongyang for safekeeping. Sang Hongyang naturally agreed, and there was peace in the camp.
There are stupid people, and there are smart people. After hearing this, Han Anguo laughed loudly: "Su Ren is really not simple. As soon as the money comes in and out, a lot more money comes out for no reason. He is called the God of Business. I am convinced!
