Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Shopkeeper Gao walked around with his boss, returned to the shop, and began to arrange things.  At the same time, he sent people to find the accounting clerks. Since the boss offered such generous terms, everyone must be willing to come back and do what they did a few days ago.

    On the other hand, we need to rent a big truck to bring the coal back. The coal sent by Yang Yuanwai from the north these days has been stored in nearby villages and has not been transported to the Puzi coal yard.

    However, as the Chinese New Year is approaching, it is not easy to rent a sufficient number of large cars, but the owner does not care about it, as if it is not important, which makes shopkeeper Gao secretly wonder.

    When busy until noon, shopkeeper Gao put down his work and followed Li You to the Coal City Office.  Shopkeeper Gao was still looking forward to the meeting at noon, because his boss drew him an attractive pie.

    Even if something seems ridiculous and impossible to achieve, people have more or less "what if it happens" expectations before it is really shattered.

    Li You and shopkeeper Gao had lunch and walked slowly to the office.  Entering the lobby of the office, he saw that there were already ten or twenty people sitting neatly inside. Looking at the number, he knew that representatives from each family should be present. Shopkeeper Gao felt proud. It seemed that the reputation of the boss's family had been truly established.  .

    Indeed, Li Daguan was able to come out unscathed after staying in Tianlao for just one night and kill his enemies with just one hand. To these merchants, he was already a god.

    The boss of the guild, Mr. Ye, who is old and strong, is also present. Li You glanced at him intentionally. After not seeing him for several days, the old man's expression was much gloomier, and he was not as rosy as before.  Maybe he already knew the news of Huang Yong's downfall?  Li You guessed.

    Although there were many people in the lobby, they were silent, as if they were waiting for the judgment to come. A chair in the middle was automatically empty.  Li You was not modest and polite, and sat on it casually. As the saying goes, no one else would do his job but me.

    He took the hot tea and drank a few sips, then looked around and said with a smile, "Thank you for your long wait. I have summoned you all today to solve the plight of your sixteen families."

    Although no one answered, they all stretched their ears to listen.  I wonder what solution this official Li will come up with to solve the problem.

    Li You placed the teacup on the table at hand, "The method is very simple. Don't bother selling coal to others. Sell all the coal you have in your hands to me. Of course, I can show you the money. It's Huichang."  The banknotes of the bank account can be cashed upon sight!"

    At the first gathering of Li Daguan, in front of sixteen shopkeepers, he proposed to purchase all the coal at a price of 20 taels per 100 kilograms, and auctioned a 100,000 taels of silver IOU as security.  .

    However, all the shopkeepers rejected it at that time because the price of 2 taels was only enough to cover the cost.  Everyone who still had expectations of huge profits couldn't accept it, and they just said that Li You deliberately caused trouble.  Today Li You proposed to acquire them all again, and no one dared to despise them anymore.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? The backend of Xixinsi has collapsed, and I heard that things are about to calm down in Xishan The sixteen coal merchants who are hoarding all know that the current risks are suddenly increasing, and they should focus on preserving their capital.

    If the price is still two taels, even if it is two or three cents lower.  Then we can really sell it all to Li You. The goal is to recover the capital as soon as possible to avoid losing everything.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????  The issue they are most concerned about is Li You's price.  Some coal shop owners even set a minimum bottom line of one to two to five dollars for a loss-making sale.

    After everyone returned home, Li You calmly stretched out a finger and said: "The price is one tael! One tael for every hundred kilograms of coal. I want all the coal you have hoarded!"

    As soon as this price was exported, the whole lobby seemed to explode, boiling immediately, and various sounds filled the ears, converging into a noisy symphony.

    Every shopkeeper is extremely dissatisfied, how can it be just one or two!  Not to mention capital preservation, if they sell it at this price, they will lose half of their capital!  Don't go too far if you take advantage of someone's misfortune!

    On behalf of his peers, Mr. Ye, the old shopkeeper, said angrily to Li You: "Master Li! Although the business world is in a strange situation, we are willing to admit defeat, but if you eat Taoism, a scholar can be killed but not humiliated! Does Li Daguan intend to humiliate us by offering this price?"

    Someone else shouted: "If the price is really so low, why do we have to sell it to Li Daguan? We can just sell it ourselves and we can always sell it!"

    Li You calmed down and waited for everyone to finish questioning before saying: "Please be patient! I heard that the Xixin Secretary invested 40,000 taels of silver in the coal market, and these 40,000 taels were divided into each of your coal shops for use."  To hoard coal? In other words, it is equivalent to a debt of 40,000 taels you owe to the eunuchs?"

    "So what?" someone asked.

    "Okay! These debts can be transferred to me and borne by me! But the price is even lower."To completely manipulate the market, and manipulate it however you want.

    At that time, with the millions of pounds of coal and lack of financial resources that are far inferior to Li You, what can you do to compete with Li You?  I'm just afraid that I'll lose all my money from being suppressed!  There is no need to doubt this, everyone has no doubt about Li You's ability.

    Seeing that everyone was silent, Li You urged: "You have to think carefully. If you miss this village, you won't be able to shop next."

    The tall shopkeeper who was the first to question Li You suddenly cupped his hands and strode out of the Coal City Office, obviously rejecting Li You's conditions.  Later, another shopkeeper with a dark face also stood up and left.

    ???????????????????????????????????? Representatives from the eight families in the hall are still guarding each other, looking at each other, how can they not agree?  Better to die than live.

    Better than expected Li Daguan originally estimated that there were only three or five families left, but he didn't expect that there were actually six.  (,.
