Breaking through Guandong, I became Zhu Chuanwen

Chapter 274 Han Yao Trading Company's Results

Hanyao's accounts are now rich, and the steady development of several months has completely opened up Hanyao's capital chain.

Hanyao Office

Zhu Chuanwen and Gu Ansheng were sitting on the sofa drinking tea and discussing the achievements of Hanyao Commercial Bank since April.

"Lao Gu, from now on, this little green mountain's reward will go into business!" Zhu Chuanwen sat on the newly bought single leather sofa, with his hands resting on the armrests of his own, and his legs crossed, like a godfather.

"Okay, my boss, it's all small money..." Gu Ansheng also sat calmly.

As for why the two of them are suddenly so arrogant, there is one reason, the trade between the Yilan and Japan can be regarded as a fortune.

The last time I went to Japan, the raw materials purchased from the prairie cost about 8 silver dollars, but when I arrived in Japan, it was worth 12 silver dollars, and then I brought back 12 silver dollars from Japan, and it became 15 silver dollars when I arrived on the grassland. Goods, so this first trip down, the trade with Japan is almost doubled.

Of course, it is also relying on the size of Hanyao, the cheap price of Xiaoqingshan, its own trains, and its own boats, all of which are invested in the early stage, and the accumulation has produced a qualitative change.

I just like your aggressive look. Zhu Chuanwen looked at Gu Ansheng, who was also in high spirits, and asked him: "Lao Gu, how much cotton cloth did you buy from Antian?"

"Master, there are more than 2 pieces of cotton cloth printed and dyed in various colors."

The cotton cloth industry has a long history in the Qing Dynasty, cotton spinning and yarn spinning.

At this time, the distribution is divided into three classes, the horses of three feet are called "long head", the horses of two feet are called "short head", and the horses of two feet and four feet are called "long head".What Zhu Chuanwen asked Gu Ansheng to buy from Japan were all pad-dyed long-headed cloths, each worth about 6 silver dollars.

Cotton weaving was originally supposed to be a sharp weapon for the Qing government to return trade. Take before 1860, for example, the cotton cloth in Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions was only used by nobles in the European and American markets.It's just that gradually, with the emergence of industrial textiles, cheap machine cloths have replaced domestic handmade cloths.

Maybe it's because I'm used to being bullied, or as someone said, I can't stand up after kneeling for a long time.

This kind of appellation of one soil and one foreign is gradually becoming popular. Domestic handmade cloth is called earthen cloth, while foreign machine cloth is called foreign cloth.

The war between the local and foreign countries was regarded as the complete defeat of the Qing Dynasty, which directly destroyed most of the textile industry in the Qing Dynasty. Now, the Qing Dynasty needs to import tens of millions of cotton cloth from Britain and Japan every year.

However, Black Province does not produce cotton, so we can only talk about it slowly.

"Most of this cloth is sold, and the blue cloth is reserved for Han Yao and the insurance team's clothes." Zhu Chuanwen directly determined the purpose of these cloths in the future.

Gu Ansheng nodded. He also meant the same thing. The cloth used to make insurance team uniforms and Hanyao work uniforms was expensive, but now it is considered cheap. Then, he sneered and said, "Boss, I guess this Mitsui It never occurred to me that while Yasuda and I competed for the raw materials on the grassland, we also bought cotton cloth produced in Japan from him."

Speaking of this, Zhu Chuanwen also laughed. Yasuda’s way is really wild. After finding that the textile road is not going to work, he directly started to build a sinking channel with Zhu Chuanwen’s monosodium glutamate, and then took the empty check of not participating in the textile industry on a large scale. He swaggered to find Mitsui, bought the cloth, and then handed it over to Han Yao.

It seems that Mitsui and Hanyao are competing, but Yasuda's talents are actually smart people who earn money at the middle.

Of course, it is most appropriate to dump the cotton cloth again on the grassland: "Lao Gu, last time you said that your caravan has expanded to 18?" Zhu Chuanwen was talking about the merchant team on the grassland.

"Boss, it's increased again, 24. Since the guns started, I found that the workers who participated in the rotation training with the insurance team are really positive."

Hanyao's caravan fired guns. For Xiaoqingshan, Zhu Chuanwen still had a relatively wild development idea. The guns obtained from the bandits before and after were directly established a small arsenal in the camp of Xiaoqingshan Shan Shuxin. When employees of Hanyao came to Xiaoqingshan, the first thing they did was to fire guns and bullets.

In this way, the original 12 caravans doubled to 24, with about 800 people, under the condition of Gu Ansheng's continuous deployment and sending people away.The managers of these caravans are not stupid either. They have established a good relationship with the insurance team for a long time, and they communicate with each other to operate within the support of the insurance team.

Now, Han Yao's team walking on the grassland is like a hedgehog, you can hit him, he immediately curled up into a ball, his firepower is not weak, the defensive circle built by carriages, livestock, and people won't be taken down for a while, Moreover, with the launch of the notification firework, a squadron of more than a hundred people rushes in this direction, and the support will not be later than half an hour, because the caravan and insurance team try to keep the 1-to-2 form Time to act.

Sometimes there are small groups of horse bandits, and the caravan can be killed by itself without giving out fireworks. The profit is divided equally between the caravan and the insurance team, which has also become the motivation for workers to go to the grassland to do business.Zhu Chuanwen's reward prompted the caravan to scream.

"Take care of the caravan. If I find out that the grassland tribes have been looted, I will never forgive them!" Zhu Chuanwen reminded Gu Ansheng.

"No, Master, they were all born in Kuhaha, and besides, there are instructors watching over them, so nothing like this will happen."

"Well, that's good. Is it settled that the Yilan will go to Japan for the second time?" Zhu Chuanwen asked.

"It's fixed. I should set sail tomorrow. This time I have more cargo than last time. Part of the gathering area on the Xiaoqingshan side is squatting, and part of it is still in the ice city."

"Well, build the warehouse as soon as possible. When the cattle and horse trade on the grassland closes in October, you will have to stock up on three times."

"Understood, boss, the plan I told you a few days ago?"

"The raw materials on the Horqin Grassland in eastern Mongolia have squeezed out Mitsui?"

"The supply to eastern Mongolia has basically been cut off, because Hanyao is only targeting Mitsui, the Russians at the Russian trading house greeted us, and the British saw that we were only targeting the Japanese, and they didn't have any friction with us, so I think it's time to move on to central Mongolia." Gu Ansheng repeated his plan.

"Yes, it can be regarded as a steady progress, but for the sake of the safety of the caravan, our forces in central and western Mongolia are still out of reach for the time being, but the big merchants on the grassland can be involved. Didn't Uncle De Zhong and Bai Yin mention it? Is there any contact with this businessman? This person, when you contact him, you can still lower our profit as much as possible, and let him supply us with goods. At least you have to grab the share that was originally sold to Japan, and according to my side The news is that Baiyintibu has a Russian background." Zhu Chuanwen said to Gu Ansheng, and he did not reply to Gu Ansheng after two days because he found some information about Baiyintibu from Wang Keren, not much, but he also analyzed the background.

Russian background!Gu Ansheng made a secret note in his heart, knowing that no big businessman can rely on himself alone at this time, and even if he reaches a certain level of power, even if he doesn't stand in line, there will be a bigger force to win over you.

But this news should be very secretive, and Zhu Chuanwen told Gu Ansheng that this partnership with the Russians pushed Mitsui out of the grassland with the help of the Russians. Before that, Baiyintibu was still providing Mitsui with raw materials. It seems that The Russians who were not from Bingcheng stood behind them.

But for the time being it is always a family.

"Understood, boss, I will contact the person in charge of Xiaoqingshan's business in a while, and grab the Japanese supply from Baiyintibu." Gu Ansheng nodded and said yes, and he had already started a small amount. I got in touch with the Prairie Merchant.

Zhu Chuanwen divided Mongolia into four parts, east, west, north and middle, and Hanyao also gradually eroded the Japanese's share of raw materials in the four parts.Baiyintibu is a big businessman in Mongolia in the north.

As for profit sharing, I can accept it.The cost of transporting the Japanese to the grasslands is much more expensive than that of Hanyao. Although there is a distribution center in the middle of Baotou, Mongolia today is not a long and narrow area for later generations. There are advantages.

In the office, the two were still discussing the business actions against Mitsui in full swing. As far away as Shanghai, Seinosuke Mitsui, who was in charge of Mitsui Shanghai Commercial Bank, was listening to the secretary's report from Japan with his face getting darker and darker.

Mitsui & Co., led by him who lost his son, and Hanyao are deadly rivals, but Japan's Mitsui and Yasuda have cooperated again, and Yasuda and Hanyao are partners again.

Mitsui Makotosuke got more and more angry.

"呲~"

Mitsui Chengnosuke angrily tore up the telegram from Japan in the office.

The above is the news that the textile factory that originally belonged to Mitsui & Co. signed a large order with Yasuda.

This matter, he knew in his heart, without his transfer, it was obvious that Mitsui & Co., Ltd. and Mitsui Bank's superiors, the serious Mitsui General Chamber of Commerce, made a move. It is said that what they got was a guarantee that Yasuda would not get involved in the textile industry on a large scale.

"Are all the people in the bank stupid?" Mitsui Seinosuke growled at the secretary.

He can analyze it even if he is not in Japan. The order with Yasuda was facilitated by the people of Mitsui Bank who reported to the Mitsui Chamber of Commerce. Taking advantage of his time in Shanghai, he directly signed a 10-year order with Yasuda, and Mitsui got Yasuda's Guaranteed, the second is that the banking industry has been respite, and the third can also hit Makoto Mitsui by the way.

Three birds with one stone.

After Mitsui Makotosuke fired another fire, the brain quickly calmed down. Because Japan's local textile industry is strongly supported by the government, the domestic rivalry is also fierce, but in the final analysis, the Japanese government also has ambitions. Compete with Britain in this textile industry.

The government supports it, but in private, various chambers of commerce are also competing with each other. Yasuda and Hanyao have priorities for Mitsui. Obviously, if Yasuda enters the textile industry, it will have more impact on Mitsui's position in the government.

Mitsui Makotosuke's mind is running fast, maybe temporarily put aside the grievances with Hanyao, and turn to deepen cooperation with Toyota again, so as to obtain more resources from the Mitsui General Chamber of Commerce...

Just as he was thinking, there was a knock on the door again, "Idiot! Didn't you tell me to be quiet for a while?" Mitsui Seinosuke shouted at the secretary who shrank his neck like a little quail.

"President, the business firm on the grassland has sent a message!"

Mitsui Makotosuke also stopped planning for Mitsui & Co., Ltd. in the future, thinking that this is good news after all, and he can resolve his somewhat messy mood at this time.

"Say!"

"President, this news is not good!" The secretary also reminded cautiously. He has been with Mitsui Makotosuke for many years, and the relaxed expression of his own president just now is the kind of expression that enjoys success after winning. Offended the chairman again, and hurriedly vaccinated.

"En?" Mitsui Makotosuke leaned forward, ready to fight, but he was thinking what's wrong?

"President! This month, Mitsui's fur purchases in the grassland cattle and horse trade market did not meet expectations!" The secretary held a paper in his hand, and the raw materials purchased from the grassland in July and August were obviously 7% less.

"Have you found out what is the reason?" Mitsui Makotosuke held back his anger.

"The main reason is that the goods from Horqin can't be received right now. There is another news that the raw materials may drop by 2% next month. There is news from the business on the grassland. It turned out that the big businessman Baiyin who cooperated with us proposed Bu, you don’t plan to sell the goods to us in the future?”

"Who is he going to sell to?"

"It's the Hanyao Commercial Firm in Horqin!"

"It's Hanyao again, it's Hanyao again!" Makotosuke Mitsui couldn't bear it any longer, like crazy, he started smashing things in the office crazily, a bit impotent and furious.

"Reduce the price of our products! I don't believe we can't win Hanyao!"

"President, the price has already been reduced last month in order to make up the share, and even if it is lowered further, taking into account the cost, taking Baiyin Tibu will not be much lower than the price given by Hanyao..."

"Does the president know about this?" Makotosuke Mitsui suddenly thought that the price cut last month was self-assertive.

"I should know."

Just as he was talking, another secretary brought in a telegram from Japan.

The president of Mitsui is still headed by Mitsui's people. The telegram did not say anything about Mitsui's actions. After all, he is a veteran who has been in the mall for many years and has made great contributions to Mitsui. He must have his own decision.It was just stated in the telegram that he was asked to return to Japan quickly and not to fight a price war with Hanyao for the time being. It seemed that Mitsui wanted to maintain his own interests and do a big thing. As for the reason, the General Chamber of Commerce did not specify.
