First Minister of Ming Dynasty Chapter 792

Xu Da hesitated for a while and didn't tell the two of them, but it was not easy to take advantage of the children, so he turned around and went to Zhang Ximeng's house.

The jujube-red roast duck is steaming and delicate. It is wrapped in lotus leaves and has a unique aroma.

When Xu arrived at Zhang's house, naturally, he walked in casually, and by chance, he heard a heart-piercing scream.

"I'm wronged, you can't hit me!"

Then Xu Da saw Zhang Ximeng carrying a bamboo stick and directly killed him. The ball-like Zhang Chengtian stepped forward with his short legs and ran wildly, but how could he outrun Zhang Ximeng? Xu Da, he plunged in.

"Wei Guogong, for the sake of my eldest brother, help!"

It's better if he doesn't say it. After saying that, Zhang Ximeng is even more angry. You still know your big brother?

I won't punch your **** out!

Xu Da's hands were fast and his eyes were fast, so he hurriedly held Zhang Chengtian in his arms with one arm. The child was not big, and his weight was quite heavy.

"Mr. Zhang, show mercy! Show mercy!"

Zhang Ximeng snorted angrily, "Xu Da, don't protect him! This **** has knocked a lot of money from you, right?"

Xu Da was stunned, and he did knock some money, but compared to the inspiration he gave himself, it was really nothing.

"Mr. Zhang, you are the most reasonable. If the child is disobedient, you can teach it without beating!"

Zhang Ximeng snorted coldly, "This **** can't be taught well, unless he is reincarnated!"

To be able to make Zhang Ximeng so angry, Zhang Chengtian is really powerful.

This pig-headed and dog-brained thing, why did you rank the Twelve Young Masters of Jinling, and you ranked your eldest brother first, what's your brain pumping?

I think our family is not enough to attract the wind!

Everyone is keeping a low profile to protect their lives, and you go out and talk yourself!

You lined up the Twelve Young Masters, will there be Twelve Gold Hairpins and Twelve Dads next? At that time, you will take out this little bit of my family.

Especially hateful, he also randomly arranged some things, for example, what kind of salty tofu brain should Zhang Shuning eat, even if it is sweet!

Zhang Ximeng felt that he had to teach this kid a lesson. If he dared to sell his brother's news for money, he would be able to sell his father's. If he was happy and told Gong Wei's secret, there would be endless troubles.

The virtues of the family are not enough for him to break up.

Xu Da swore that he had never seen Zhang Ximeng so angry.

"Mr. Zhang, listen to me first. In fact, this ranking is not useless. I plan to make a ranking of rich businessmen and toss these troubled businessmen."

Although Zhang Ximeng was furious, his reason was still there. Hearing that Xu Da wanted to make a list of rich businessmen, he immediately understood what he meant.

Gradually showing a thoughtful look, Xu Da saw the opportunity and quickly put Zhang Chengtian down, then dragged Zhang Ximeng into the study, before entering the door, he also handed the roast duck to Zhang Chengtian, take it to suppress the shock, look at the child's frightened face white.

After sending Zhang Chengtian away, Xu Da sat down with Zhang Ximeng, and only then explained his thoughts to Zhang Ximeng in the original.

Zhang Ximeng shook his head and put Zhang Chengtian's mess aside, and after thinking for a while, he said, "Is it time for a decisive battle?"

Xu Da thought for a while, "It should be almost the same. Although it will be better after a few more days, the price of food is too high, and the people in the city will not be able to bear it."

Zhang Ximeng paused, then said: "Xu Da, do you understand the purpose of this grain price war?"

Xu Da was stunned. "Mr. Zhang, I also thought about it. It is to get rid of the rich merchants in the middle and keep the grain in the hands of the court. But whether there is a deeper plan later, I don't know."

Zhang Ximeng smiled and said, "Xu Da, today, we can really develop industry and commerce on a large scale. That is to say, we can gather people, enter the city, and act as workers. Because we have opened up all the joints."

"You think, to produce goods and sell them overseas, we have basically mastered Goryeo now, and we have also used troops against the Japanese country, and the entire north has a broad market. After the reorganization of the navy, the conditions for opening up to the south are ready... At this time What remains is Wang Baobao, who is still lingering. We can mobilize the army to attack, and at the same time open the Silk Road in the Western Regions... It is no exaggeration to say that since the An-Shi Rebellion, our external environment has reached the best level in history. It can be said to be unprecedented!"

Xu Da nodded again and again, that's true, thinking about it now, it's really not easy to be able to do this.

Zhang Ximeng continued: "We have now eliminated the salt merchant group and the maritime merchant group. If we eliminate the grain merchants again, everything that is related to the national economy and people's livelihood will be in the hands of the imperial court. To develop industry and commerce, the population must gather in the cities, and food is needed. , we will requisition from the private sector. If it is not enough, we can expand it to the outside world, or even emigrate, a variety of grains... As long as there are no grain merchants in the middle, we can ensure stable grain prices and prices. This is the biggest prerequisite for our development. !"

Zhang Ximeng was in a good mood and talked eloquently. He put the final key on the price, which surprised Xu Da. To be honest, Xu Da did not expect this, and he felt that the price change was nothing special.

As long as you don't hoard and drive up prices, it's fine.

But Zhang Ximeng has his own opinion.

"Xu Da, you need to think clearly. The most important thing in doing business is the rules, the stability...the ability to predict the results. Let's take the pawnshop of the money shop as an example, why is their business immoral? It's very simple, they take advantage of people's danger, Buying low and selling high is all about desperate money. We use banks to lower interest rates to provide convenience for the people, so as not to be exploited by high interest rates.”

"You think, if young people go to the cities to work in large numbers, the food they need will increase exponentially. At this time, if someone drives up the price of food, what effect will it have? If the price of food is high, the wages will go up, and if the wages go up, the profits will go down. Even losing money. To be clear, where will this profit come from?”

After thinking for a while, Xu Da understood, and couldn't help laughing: "Actually, Mr. Zhang has been thinking too much. I think it may be to reduce wages and make workers suffer!"

Zhang Ximeng smiled and said, "That's right! But what if the workers return home and don't come to work anymore?"

"Then condone mergers, force the common people to leave the land, or postpone a new round of equalization, forcing those with more children and less land to leave their hometowns and go to the city to earn hard-earned money!"

Zhang Ximeng rubbed his palms and laughed, "This makes it clear... What we need is to ensure the overall stability of prices, to keep workers' wages rising steadily, to ensure a suitable level of interest rates, and to ensure that businessmen have good profits... If they want higher, Then open up to the outside world, or study new technologies and adopt new machines. The imperial court can also guide and help.”

"In my vision, the imperial court, businessmen, workers, scholars...we can sit together, discuss and solve problems, distribute profits reasonably, and achieve a balance."

"If it's not balanced, go out and grab it! Right?" Xu Da said with a smile.

Zhang Ximeng was stunned, and nodded, "Yes, that's what it means!"

Xu Da understood what Zhang Ximeng meant, and also knew what to do next... In the face of businessmen, he must not stab a boat of people with a penny!

If you are willing to be obedient, of course there is no problem.

They also need to operate, gather wealth, and even gain profits from outside.

This is how people are, who can eat the grass by the nest, who wants to work hard!

All loopholes must be plugged, so that those who stretch their claws pay the price, knowing that some benefits cannot be taken and some money cannot be earned, and then they can let go of their hands and feet and vigorously develop business.

Zhang Ximeng has insight into the laws of industrial development, and has been thinking about it for so many years and planning for so many years... If some obvious problems cannot be avoided, it will be a failure.

So this list is a warning and a reminder.

If you are willing to withdraw, cooperate with the court, and have a bright future, if you are unwilling to cooperate, then don't blame the court for being rude.

Sure enough, just three days later, a total of twenty-seven names of world-class merchants appeared in the newspapers, and without exception, all of them were involved in the grain trade this time.

Among them, the seventeenth is the Meiji business, which clearly states that the owner of the Meiji business, Mei Nianzu, is the cousin of the Marquis of Runan.

He started his life as a grain chief, and he was rewarded by the court by borrowing military horses and vehicles from his cousin to deliver tax and grain in time.

Afterwards, a business was established at home to run a grain business, and it gradually developed to its current status.

At this point, the card has been illuminated.

Need to say more?

Your Mei family has come to this day with the grace of the imperial court. Do you still want to eat meat with your bowls and chopsticks down to curse your mother?

The rest of the merchants, more or less, are also a bit broken.

Zhang Chengtian had seen the newspaper. He was having morning tea outside. He knocked 200 pieces from Xu Da and sold it to the newspaper. He made a lot of money.

If you drink soy milk in the morning, you can buy two bowls, drink one bowl, and watch one bowl.

All I want is this pride!

But Zhang Chengtian looked at the newspaper, he was in a hurry!

Hello Xu Da, you are plagiarizing my creativity, you have to pay me for the manuscript!

Zhang Chengtian took the newspaper and went to find Xu Da before going home.

Zhang Chengtian didn't disturb his father because he knew that his father would not take care of him, but Xu Da couldn't. Do you still want to know about my eldest brother?

Just be honest!

Obediently compensate this young master for his losses.

Xu Da was amused when he saw this boy's fearless appearance. You sold this thing to a newspaper, and I haven't settled with you yet! You're good, it's delivered to your door.

But since that's the case, I have my own arrangements.

Xu Da thought for a while, and said to Zhang Chengtian, "I will arrange a job for you. When you come back, I will give you a thousand treasures!"

Zhang Chengtian blinked, "It won't be very dangerous, will it?"

Xu Da couldn't help laughing and said, "Do I dare to let you take risks? Don't worry, UU reading www.uukanshu.com is a trivial matter, just keep calm."

Zhang Chengtian thought about it seriously and nodded.

"Okay, but you have to tell your majesty in advance, not to tell my father!"

Xu Da couldn't help laughing, this kid is quite smart.

Xu Da all agreed, and immediately sent Zhang Chengtian to a newspaper.

Not half an hour after he entered, May Yin, the quasi-consort of the Ming Dynasty, rushed in with hundreds of people.

"Which **** sent it, get out!"

Zhang Chengtian, who was knocking pumpkin seeds, was stunned for a moment. He was quite familiar. Who is so bold?
