Everyone was scratching their heads but couldn't figure it out. The three United Polo companies could only wait and see what would happen and wait silently.
Early on the third day, new news came out. Datang Daily published an exclusive interview on the front page, in which General Cheng Zhijie revealed his true feelings.
Why did he close the racecourse? It has nothing to do with anything. The recent rumors are just rumors. The real reason is that His Majesty wanted to conquer Goguryeo and lacked good horses. After learning about this situation, he closed the racecourse and raised the horses.
Be prepared to present it to the imperial court at any time for the Eastern Expedition.
Below the interview, there is also a commentary article, which greatly praises General Cheng for his profound understanding of justice and taking his family and country as his own responsibility. He is worthy of being a founding veteran and the pillar of the country.
As soon as the news came out, everyone was dumbfounded.
Are you kidding? Cheng Yaojin understands justice well? Isn’t that profit-seeking guy not named Cheng?
Except for some people who didn't know the truth, everyone who knew Cheng Yaojin a little bit scoffed at the news. But it didn't matter, Li Mu's goal had been achieved.
On that day, United Polo's stock price fell in response. By the time the market closed, it had dropped by 30%.
Cheng Yaojin was beaming with joy and came to the Hou Mansion. Before anyone came in, laughter could already be heard: "My nephew, you are really amazing. Cheng Qian just came back from the trading center. According to him, Zhao Jun
The shopkeeper Li left behind at the exchange had his face turned black."
Before Li Mu could speak, he sat in front of Li Mu and stared at him with both eyes: "But my dear nephew, isn't your trick of killing everyone a bit cruel? Do I really want to kill those three thousand good horses?"
, are you dedicating them all to His Majesty?" The more Cheng Yaojin said, the more his flesh ached, and his black face twitched.
"The layout is too small. There are only a few thousand horses. If you don't let go of your children, you won't be able to trap the wolf. If you don't pay, there will be no reward. Don't worry, I won't let you suffer."
"Then I believe you." That's what Cheng Yaojin was waiting for. He didn't plan to ask Li Mu now. He knew that asking would be in vain and Li Mu wouldn't be able to tell him. Thinking from his perspective, he also felt
It was impossible for Li Mu to say. This is wisdom worth tens of thousands of gold, how could it be easily shared with others?
If Li Mu heard what he said, he would definitely cry out that he was wronged. He didn't want to explain to Cheng Yaojin, he just thought he was big-mouthed. There was no other reason at all. Li Mu curled his lips and looked at Cheng Yaojin who was not going to leave.
Li Chongyi nodded, and then turned around to arrange the table.
The maid looked at the tea, Cheng Yaojin picked it up and blew it, drank all the tea in the cup, wiped his mouth, and said: "I ran here panting all the way, I am really a little thirsty... My nephew, you think so too"
It’s strange, I still haven’t figured out why their stock price dropped?”
"Ah?" Li Mu was stunned and looked at Cheng Yaojin: "Don't you understand?"
Cheng Yaojin shook his head: "I don't understand, what's wrong?"
Li Mu was startled for a moment, sighed, and said: "Uncle Cheng, isn't this obvious? The news I released can be said to kill two birds with one stone. Each of these birds is overwhelming others with righteousness. There will be a war soon.
The country needs war horses. How can good horses be used for fun? The Cheng family understands the righteousness and voluntarily gave up the horse farm business that made a lot of money every day. If they join forces with polo, if they take advantage of the trend to expand and go against the trend, what will it be like?
Reputation? They are both a thousand-year-old family, and everyone wants to have face. No matter how profitable this business is, they will not be able to do it again. At most, they will maintain the current level, and they will never dare to touch the meat on your plate. "
"Gao!" Cheng Yaojin said happily, "This is like knocking out your teeth and swallowing them in your own stomach. My nephew, Gao Ming! Where is the second bird? What is it?"
"The second bird is to tell the market that the imperial court is going to war."
Cheng Yaojin was stunned and said, "Why is this?"
Li Mu's mentality is really going to collapse. How did this head grow? Does it say that the muscles have grown to death?
"There is a lot of money in the market, and now the court is about to go to war. The horses in the racecourse, used for entertainment, must be bucking the trend. In other words, the business of the racecourse will not be prosperous. And the war is about to begin, and food,
The demand for materials such as iron, cloth, medicinal materials, etc. will be very large. These things will become popular, and the stock prices related to them will rise. Think about it, if you were a shareholder who invested in United Polo, what would you do at this time?
"
"I..." Cheng Yaojin thought for a moment, and suddenly his eyes lit up: "I will take the money out of the United Polo and invest it in the hot spots you mentioned -" Cheng Yaojin suddenly said: "That's it,
I understand, good nephew, you are tall, you are really tall!"
"But..." Cheng Yaojin rubbed his hands and said, "You haven't said yet, how can you prevent me from suffering a loss? Now it seems that my thousands of horses have suffered a huge loss."
"You are really..." Li Mu was so annoyed by him that he suppressed his impatience and said, "Uncle Cheng, why can't you see through it? Your Majesty is going to war, and your horse farm still has His Majesty's elements, even if you
Even if you pretend to be stupid, you can't keep these horses. Since you can't keep them, why not offer them up in exchange for a good reputation and favors from His Majesty?"
Cheng Yaojin was thoughtful, and Li Mu continued: "It seems that you have lost thousands of horses now, but His Majesty owes you a favor... Think about it, His Majesty will definitely express his feelings, right? After this battle is over,
The benefits of this battle are definitely indispensable. However, I suggest you take this opportunity to apply to His Majesty to join the army——"
Cheng Yaojin frowned and said: "Do you need to say that I will accompany the army? I am General Youwuwei, and your Majesty will definitely take me with you!"
"I'm talking about your sons!" Li Mu said angrily: "With you, can you take your sons with no military merit? Let me tell you, His Majesty has been planning this battle for a long time, and he has a trump card. Goguryeo will definitely
Defeat. With such a good opportunity, wouldn’t you be a fool not to try your luck in the military? Uncle Cheng, you have six sons! Except for the eldest son who is in Dingxiang, the other five sons have not been found yet, right?"
"This..." Cheng Yaojin's eyes lit up, yes, military merit! The three thousand horses are counted among the five sons, and each son is worth six hundred. Six hundred horses are exchanged for one military merit. Although this transaction is expensive
A little, but it’s worth it! After all, you can buy horses again, but this military merit has passed this village and there is no such shop!
