Daming: Brother, there is no future for monks, let's rebel

Chapter 418 The Problem Is No Money

After chatting for half an hour, Shen Wansan was so drunk that he still didn't get to the point.

Zhang Fengnian is very impressed by this skill in nourishing qi.

In the end, the businessmen who invited Shen Wansan and Zhou Gushan couldn't sit still.

The fat man who brought Shen Wansan into the private room first toasted Shen Wansan with a glass of wine, and then sighed pretending to be helpless: "I don't know if Boss Shen found out, business is getting worse and worse recently."

Shen Wansan didn't answer: "Why does Boss Du say that? There are a lot of projects in Yanjing now, and the manpower needed for these projects can be said to be countless. I don't know how many people have gathered in Yanjing because of this."

"Everyone here is an old businessman. If there are people, there will be business opportunities. If there are business opportunities, there will be money. I believe I don't need to say more."

"Boss Du and I think exactly the opposite. In the next few years, Yanjing will be the most profitable place in Ming Dynasty."

"Of course, this is just a superficial opinion of the three of Shen Wan, so you don't have to take it too seriously."

This principle, the people present naturally understood, nodded in agreement.

"Boss Shen is right, it's true."

"The more people there are, the easier it is for us to do business."

Du Rong saw that these people were being led astray by Shen Wansan, so he quickly interrupted the topic: "The reason is that this is true, but the current environment in Yanjing seems a bit unsuitable for doing business, right?"

With such a point from him, the other people sitting here also calmed down again.

He began to echo Du Rong's words again.

"Boss Shen, what Boss Du said is correct. It is true that there are more and more people in Yanjing, but..." The speaker pointed to the sky: "We are really unpredictable about the current attitude of the higher authorities. "

In front of Shen Wansan, the businessman didn't dare to mention Zhu Han directly.

"I'm afraid, in case that day, like Qian Yong, I am accidentally hacked on the street." Another person said worriedly.

"The people above always said that in our Ming Dynasty, scholars, peasants, businessmen, and everyone were equal, but now it seems that we businessmen are still inferior after all."

"Boss Shen, Boss Zhou! Don't you guys think that we should let the court know that we businessmen are not just for bullying?"

Although Du Rong was still smiling, there seemed to be something different in his smile.

"Of course, you two don't have to worry. I'm not saying that we are going to fight against the court. We people are just responsible people who want to do some small business honestly, and we don't have the intention to fight against the court. "

"This time, we just need to let the adults above know that although we businessmen have no skills, we are not just being bullied."

Shen Wansan said with a half-smile, "Oh? I don't know what Boss Du thinks. You might as well say it. Let's study it."

"This..." Du Rong hesitated for a while, and after considering the time for half a cup of tea, he suddenly picked up the wine glass and drank the wine in the glass.

Then he said with Jiu Jin: "Boss Shen, I am not dissatisfied with you now, our idea is actually very simple."

"The guy who used the money owed someone's wages, but was cut off accidentally. He deserves it. We have nothing to say."

"However, the principle of paying the debt with the life of the murderer must be explained, right? We only hope for fairness, and the murderer can be punished as he should, and that's enough."

Shen Wansan was expressionless, but sneered in his heart.This guy's wishful thinking was too loud.

"If the court refuses to agree, what are you going to do? You don't want to just play tricks like this, do you?"

Du Rong smiled faintly, and said with feigned regret: "Boss Shen, you are worrying too much. Don't we businessmen dare to fight against the imperial court?"

"It's just... If the imperial court doesn't value us so much, there's no need for us to travel thousands of miles to Yanjing to work so hard, is there?"

"Make money, where is it not making money, it's nothing more than earning a little more and a little less."

"Oh?" Shen Wansan raised his eyebrows: "Everyone means..."

Du Rong pretended to be helpless: "I, Du Rong, plan to go back to Guanzhong and continue to do my own small business. I will never touch any business related to the imperial court in the future?"

"I'll also go back to Liaodong to dump my furs."

"The Shu brocade in our Sichuan province will not worry about selling no matter what time of day it is."

These people made a statement together.

There is only one meaning, if Zhu Han does not agree to their request, they will quit.

"Boss Shen, Boss Zhou. You two are the business leaders of our Ming Dynasty. We have no choice but to use this method to express our attitude to the court."

Du Rong looked aggrieved: "But I'm just a small businessman after all, and the imperial court will definitely not take me seriously."

"So, I still want to ask Boss Shen and Boss Zhou to be our leaders. When the time comes, we will advance and retreat together, so we can take care of them."

"So that's how it is." Shen Wansan sighed helplessly: "I, Shen Wansan, know all about your difficulties."

"It's just this matter, I really can't help you. You should also know that the money I invested in the first two biddings was more than one million taels."

"So much money, even for me and Lao Zhou, it is definitely not a small sum."

"The two of us are not like you guys. The boat is so easy to turn around. If you really want to give up the business here, it will hurt your muscles and bones."

"This time, it is Shen who is sorry for everyone." Shen Wansan Shi Shiran stood up and gave everyone a glass of wine.

"If you suffer any losses because of this incident, Shen Wansan can help you as much as possible in the future. But it is really impossible to take advantage of the family business and be with you."

"Haihan, everyone, I still have some business matters to deal with. I'm leaving today. I hope you can get what you want."

After finishing the wine in the glass, Shen Wansan turned around and left, Zhou Gushan also followed behind him expressionlessly.

"Boss Shen, wait..." Someone wanted to organize, but was pulled away by the person next to him. He shook his head helplessly and sat back down.

Although Du Rong still kept a smile on his face, there was no smile at all.

Just look at it so coldly.

Zhang Fengnian secretly breathed a sigh of relief, Shen Wansan really did not get involved in this kind of matter.

He also took the opportunity to stand up, clasped his fists sloppily, and went out with Shen Wansan.

Shen Wansan, who was a little staggering, walked to the door of the private room, and stopped again.

Drunkenly said: "By the way, you don't have to worry, today's words can get out of your mouth and into my Shen Wansan's ears. I, Shen Wansan, will not tell His Highness the King of England about this matter."

"Everyone... just do it for yourself."

Boom!

The door of the box was closed in various ways to block all the noise.

"What did I say, Shen Wansan and the others are simply unreliable. They all started their fortunes by relying on the King of England, how could they add trouble to the King of England."

Du Rong smiled coldly: "I never thought that Shen Wansan and the others would stand with us. They are all fed dogs, how could they bite their master at this time."

"The sole purpose of inviting Shen Wansan over today is just to test the attitude of the King of England."

"Now you should see it clearly, right? This King of England is no different from those guys who say that there are all peoples in the world, but in fact they never relent when they collect money in private."

"So, you don't have to be lucky anymore. If you don't show the court a little bit of strength, the same sect will not take us seriously."

For a while, the private room fell silent again.

Soon someone gritted his teeth and said, "Boss Du, we all listen to you. If those troublemakers develop a temper, how will we do business in the future?"

"Yes, I can't let those unruly people do whatever they want, otherwise, I'd rather go back to Guanzhong."

the other side.

Shen Wansan had just stepped out of the door of the private room, and his expression had returned to normal.

It was completely gone from the look just now, where he couldn't walk well when he was drunk.

Zhang Fengnian originally wanted to reach out to subdue Shen Wansan, but he couldn't help being taken aback when he saw his appearance.

Shen Wansan gave him a look, signaling him not to speak yet.

It wasn't until he left Jufeng Tower that Shen Wansan laughed and said: "That's right, I thought just now that you kid also wanted to die with them, to fight against the prince."

"..." Zhang Fengnian smiled bitterly: "Boss Shen, so you are not drunk."

"I've only drunk so much, how can I get drunk? Shen Wansan is famous for his huge volume." Zhou Gushan said in a compliment or mockingly.

But judging from his expression, it should be mostly mocking.

Shen Wansan didn't care, instead he said with a joking smile: "These guys are looking for death, so we don't need to worry about it. However, we can take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune."

Zhang Fengnian hesitated: "Boss Shen, is this not good?"

Despite his superb means, Zhang Fengnian is obviously not as good as Shen Wansan and Zhou Gushan, and has no bottom line.

Shen Wansan patted Zhang Fengnian on the shoulder and said with a big smile: "What's wrong, these guys commit suicide, that's their business. What should be said, we have already said what should be said, and it can be regarded as the utmost benevolence .”

"When it's time to consider your own interests, you should consider yourself. Too thin-skinned, but there is no way to do business well."

Zhang Fengnian bowed his hands to Shen Wansan with tears and smiles: "Thank you for your advice, Senior, Ruixue understands."

After thinking about it, Zhang Fengnian hesitated and said: "It's just...does it really not need to tell the prince about this matter? It's okay, let the prince be prepared."

Although Zhang Fengnian earned 50 taels a day, he has become a household legend in Yanjing City.

But to Zhu Han, he is really just an ordinary businessman, he can't just meet the prince casually.

Before that, Zhang Fengnian was thinking about how to notify this matter.

On the one hand, he is grateful to Zhu Han for taking care of him. Without Zhu Han, it is impossible for his formula to be sold at such a high price.

On the other hand, Zhang Fengnian is also clear.Whether these people will succeed in the future or lose their money depends mainly on the development of Yanjing City.

If Yanjing City is really tossed by those businessmen, they will be completely over.

"Hahaha!"

Shen Wansan and Zhou Gushan laughed at the same time.

What made Zhang Fengnian laugh was inexplicable, and he didn't know which sentence he said was wrong.

After laughing for a while, Shen Wansan explained: "Do you still need to worry about the prince? I can guarantee that within two sticks of incense, the prince will understand what we just said."

"I came here this time just to see how far they want to go."

Zhou Gushan added mercilessly: "It's nice to say, you just don't want to offend those people to death, and at the same time you want to show your loyalty in front of His Royal Highness."

"Your little thought, others can't see it, do you think I can't see it?"

Shen Wansan gritted his teeth: "You still have the same idea as me, otherwise how would you come back to Jufeng Tower?"

While bickering, the two got into their respective carriages.

Only Zhang Fengnian was left alone, standing on the spot in a mess in the wind.

After listening to Shen Wansan's words, he also realized that he had been fooled.He was even afraid that Zhu Han didn't know the plan of these businessmen, so he was caught off guard.

Knowing that Zhu Han didn't have to worry, Zhang Fengnian began to worry again.

What Shen Wansan said is correct, if these businessmen really want to make trouble, a considerable number of them will definitely be unlucky.

Most of the projects that were originally contracted by others will be vacated.

These projects all need someone to take over.

He would love to have a hand in it, too.

But the problem is, their 50 taels have already been invested in the previous project.

Now, there is simply no way to draw much liquidity.

Even if you can barely make up 1 taels of silver, it is simply a drop in the bucket.

They have now become merchants with small capital, but it is inconvenient to compete with other merchants for ordinary residential buildings.

It's not that Zhang Fengnian has money, so he looks down on the small profits.

It's just that for them now, this investment is no longer directly proportional to their revenue.

Zhang Fengnian also wanted to borrow money in the past, but at this time, everyone was staring at the third bidding, and no one would lend them money easily at this time.

Even if it is borrowed, the interest rate will never be low.

Zhang Fengnian discussed with Liu Jiyang and Shen Xiong for a long time, but they didn't think of any good solution, so they had to give up in the end.

Liu Jiyang blamed himself, "It was the two of us who dragged you down, Ruixue."

Shen Xiong is quite open-minded: "If you miss it, you should miss it. This is the way of doing business. Not every good opportunity can be seized. Compared with before, we are much better now."

Zhang Fengnian smiled wryly and shook his head: "I understand, it's just that I'm still a little bit unwilling."

The Study Room of the King's Mansion.

Zhu Han was listening to Jin Yiwei's report.

Just like what Shen Wansan said, in the elegant room of Jufeng Building, Jin Yiwei could clearly understand every word said by the businessmen present.

Even how many glasses of wine they drank and how many bites of food they ate at the banquet were all treasures.
