The Xiang family has an industry here, a fabric store, which has been operating here for more than 20 years. It is one of the pillar industries of the Xiang family, and it can contribute about 15% of the profit every year.
But recently, Xiang's life has not been easy, because the store has been closed, and it's not because of poor management, but in general, it has been treated in a targeted manner.
For the shop they rented, the landlord suddenly raised the price by 30%, and the lease can only be signed once a year. This kind of overbearing clause directly brought the fabric shop to a dead end, but this It's not the biggest problem. After all, it's just a decrease in profits. The biggest factor that led to the closure is that Mashan City suddenly issued a regulation, that is, people who are not from the cave to run a business, and the tax payment will be increased by 15%. There are a few suppliers who have raised their prices by about 20%. As a result, not only the business in Mashan Cave cannot continue, but it is also difficult to support other areas, because under multiple pressures, what do you do? It's all compensation.
For this reason, Xiang Mingtang hurried over from Mashan Cave Tianzhong to deal with the matter, thinking about whether he could save the situation and reopen the business, but his efforts have hardly made any progress so far, and they also expected that , What is the reason for being eaten by the pot? Some people are attacking Xiang Que. In fact, the Xiang family has heard these rumors a long time ago.
After struggling for a few days, Xiang Mingtang failed to settle the matter, and finally had no choice but to make a decision to evacuate Xiangjia from Huoshan Cave and return them to Mashan Cave. It is not possible to die of starvation, but he will definitely be devastated from then on. .
One week after Xiang Mingtang came to Huoshan Cave, Xiang Jia packed several carriages, transported all the goods back to Mashan, and returned home sadly.
When they walked out of Huoshan Cave, Xiang Mingtang and the others couldn't help but glance at the city behind them, their faces were ashamed. They knew that the word "family fortune" would definitely fall on their heads.
The shopkeeper sighed, and said with a gloomy expression: "We all thought that the third young master would be the opportunity for the rise of the Xiang family. It¡¯s hard for everyone to think about it. I heard that Kaiyuan City greeted them this time. They have already agreed with many cities. Xiang¡¯s business cannot be done. If you do our business, you can¡¯t do Kaiyuan City. Think about it, how can the Xiang family compare with a big city, isn't the result obvious?"
In the team, other people also echoed and said: "Only Mashan can persist, and the business in other places will die almost immediately."
Xiang Mingtang looked at the crowd with an ugly face and said, "I'm sorry everyone, it's the Xiang family who have troubled you all."
The big shopkeeper of Huoshan Cave waved his hand and said, "Mingtang, you can't say that. When we worked for Xiangjia, you gave us a good salary. We have lived very peacefully these years. Cooperation is mutual. It¡¯s not about getting involved. If you earn money, you will lose money. I just think that Xiang¡¯s family¡¯s business is gone, and we have to take care of our families. At least we have to pay our salaries, right? Then this is quite a big expense. In the meaning of sharing for the family, we feel that there is something we want to talk to you about."
Xiang Mingtang nodded and said, "Okay, just tell me."
The shopkeeper cupped his hands and said with a smile: "We don't get paid for nothing if we don't do business. We also feel embarrassed. In this case, I think it's better for us to find another way of living."
Xiang Mingtang frowned and said: "With the family's current ability, it's not a problem to support you for a year or so. You know that the Xiang family never treats their own people too badly."
The shopkeeper shook his head and said: "I can't say that. We have nothing to do for a year and a half, so we have fallen behind in all levels. After another year or two, will it get better? We will be far behind if we want to make a living. , maybe no one will want us anymore.¡±
Xiang Mingtang sighed, and said: "To put it bluntly, you are determined to leave, so you have to let go of Xiang's stall, right? Don't you believe that there will be a day when Xiang's family will get up again?"
The shopkeeper said: "Will Master Xiang come out of Tianchi Mountain in sixty years?"
Xiang Mingtang was speechless.
The shopkeeper went on to say: "Mingtang, let's get together and get together, I really plan to go first"
Xiang Mingtang looked at the others with a stiff expression, and asked, "Who else wants to leave?"
The shopkeeper jumped out of the carriage and walked aside. After he left, another seven or eight people stood with him. Almost all of the Xiang family's previous team in the entire Huoshan Cave disappeared at once. The three people Xiang Mingtang brought out from the house did not move.
Xiang Mingtang looked at a few people, nodded deeply, and said: "It turns out that you have already made plans. If I guessed correctly, you may have to go to Kaiyuan City next step, right?"
Xiang Mingtang is not stupid, he is basically not stupid to be able to do business. From the time when Xiang's family suffered a blow to the current closure of various industries, and then someone offered to leave immediately, he knew that the people in Kaiyuan City might have I just got in touch with them. Their intentions are very clear. Not only will it hit your industry, but it will also make the Xiang family no one to use in the future. You will be beaten to death with a single blow, and it is impossible to turn over.
Those people in the shopkeeper didn't deny it, they just said: "Let's get together and get away"
At the same time, when Xiang's family members parted ways, suddenly in the middle of the sky in the distance, three figures flashed out of thin air.
Xiang Mingtang glanced up, he felt a sense of crisis from the three of them, and the murderous aura deliberately exuded by the other party, the cultivation of these people was obviously far beyond their side.
Xiang Mingtang looked at the shopkeeper and said: "It turns out that taking time out of the Xiang family's foundation doesn't count. They didn't even intend to let us return to Mashan City alive. It seems that this is going to uproot the Xiang family?"
The shopkeeper said: "Yes, they want a lot, not just to destroy us, they said that whoever follows the Xiang family will die together, so you can't blame us, Mingtang, after all, we also want to survive of"
Xiang Mingtang smiled miserably.
The three of them were at least above the level of out-of-body powerhouses, their bodies swayed suddenly, and they rushed towards Xiang Mingtang, then he drew out his sword and said, "If it doesn't work, we won't live on our knees, Xiang Mingtang There are no cowards in the family swear to the death to fight to the end"
Only the remaining three people looked sad, and suddenly felt a little regret.
If I had known earlier, we would have followed suit.
