The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1300

"It's just Xuangong, now we are trying our best to supply Longshouyuan with the materials to build the new palace, so where are the materials on hand to sell to ordinary people?" said a businessman.

"Send [-]% to Longshouyuan, keep [-]% in my own hands, and sell it by myself. As for Longshouyuan, I will figure out a way." Xuan Shijing said.

In this way, for these businessmen, they can take care of both sides. Not only can they make big business and money, but they can also severely eat away at the business in Chang'an City and its surrounding areas.

Xuan Shijing's plan was to allow these merchants to completely rob the entire Guanzhong market. He would rather let the materials on the dragon's head be broken for a few days, and would not let those hoarding materials to compete with the court.

Just to make them panic!
This can also be said to kill one thousand enemies, and self-defeating eight hundred, but Xuan Shijing's attitude is decisive, this kind of thing only happens once, and once they are ruthlessly rectified, it will make these people have lingering fears, and when they encounter such things in the future Don't dare to confront this kind of thing maliciously!

If he was doing business in a serious manner, Xuan Shijing would not be so angry. If the business with the imperial court fails, then he should do his own business well at home and send people everywhere to collect and stockpile materials throughout the pass. , Raise the price, and want the court to pay the bill, it is really bad.

This is still the relatives of the Li royal family, and this is how they treat their own family members, it is simply greedy for profit!
I have already told Li Chengqian and Li Zhi about sending troops out to open mountains and quarry, and logging into forests. As long as His Majesty Li Er passes by, a large number of troops will leave Chang'an and go to Qinling, and the materials mined will be They are continuously transported to Chang'an City. As for those who want to hoard materials, let them hoard them and stay at home for the New Year.

"After this incident is over, I hope you will continue to support the construction of the new palace on Longshouyuan." Xuan Shijing cupped his hands and said, "Please everyone."

"Xuan Gong is polite, I will definitely do my best." Several shopkeepers also expressed their opinions one after another.

"I'll toast Duke Xuan."

"Please." Xuan Shijing raised his wine glass: "Tomorrow's grand event in Xuanwu Tower, I invite a few shopkeepers to attend in person."

"sure."

Some brands are not difficult for the Ministry of Industry, mainly the official name, which is what these businessmen value. Originally, these businessmen followed the pace of money piles, doing business with the court and making money, but this To them, the commendation order was a complete surprise.

This is what Xuan Shijing wants to show to outsiders.

Didn't the masters behind those stubborn businessmen want to raise an argument with the Ministry of Industry?In other words, it is not the imperial court, the Ministry of Industry, or the businessmen who support the imperial court who will lose in the end.

They feel that even if they can’t do business with the imperial court, Chang’an City still has their market and a place for them. Some merchants even supported the imperial court and sent most of the materials to Longshouyuan. Chang’an City is already empty. Come out, this market is their main battlefield.

But once Xuan Shijing's commendation orders for these merchants came out, did the people in Chang'an City recognize those merchants?Or do you agree with the honest businessmen who have been rewarded by the court?
As soon as the commendation order came out, most of the markets in Chang'an City were still owned by these merchants.

The common people trust the court, and the court trusts these merchants, so the common people follow the court to trust these merchants. This is what Xuan Shijing said, no matter what business these people do in the future, they will inadvertently outperform other merchants in Chang'an City.

As long as these businessmen don't compromise their reputation and do business honestly, this brand will always be useful and in their hands forever.

Once these businessmen are dishonest, the imperial court will still take back the brand, and the imperial court's reputation will not be damaged.

A brand is the honor of businessmen and their constraints. It is a good thing and a win-win situation for both businessmen and common people.

What I want to tell these businessmen today is this one thing, let them pack up tomorrow, come to Xuanwu Tower in good spirits, and accept this honor in front of the people of Chang'an.

After the banquet was over, Xuan Shijing and Qian Dui came to the study, they sat facing each other, drank tea to clear the alcohol in their mouths.

"Grandpa, have you found a way to deal with those merchants?" Qian Dui asked.

Qiandui felt that if there was no other purpose, his father-in-law would not give such a big pie to those businessmen. Although it was in the name of the court, the benefits of this were not small. To the court, it had nothing to do with it. Big, but for these merchants, the gap widened at once.

"The countermeasure came out of desperation. I remember that there was a joint chamber of commerce in Chang'an City. That is, more than a dozen chambers of commerce came together to elect a leader. Is our family also among them?" Xuan Shijing asked.

Qiandui nodded: "Grandpa, our family's business is so big, it must be in the middle, and the subordinate has the cheek to take the post of president."

"Where are the merchants who came today?" Xuan Shijing asked.

"It's all in the middle." Qian Dui said: "The merchants in Chang'an City are also divided into circles, forming cliques. Chang'an City looks prosperous on the surface, but in fact the business circle is very chaotic. It seems to be tolerant, that is also from outsiders Before the merchants gained a foothold, they all dredged up the relationship and found their backers."

"Normal." Xuan Shijing said: "Otherwise, the local merchants in Chang'an will not be happy. After opening up the relationship, even if the merchants in Chang'an are not happy, it's okay. There are people above them, and now the merchant circle in Chang'an City is still balanced. Harmonious, each family has its own means, and each family relies on its own means to live, but tomorrow the Ministry of Industry's brand is issued, and it is estimated that there will be a gust of wind in the entire Tang Dynasty."

"Yes, everyone will recognize the court in the future, and those merchants who are not recognized by the court will be unlucky." Qian Dui said.

"Let's talk about the future. Let's take care of what is in front of us first. Besides, tomorrow's brand is not issued by His Majesty, but cast by the Ministry of Industry. What does the Ministry of Industry do? It is not in charge of merchants and taxes, to put it bluntly. It's still a name to fool people, but it can fool many people." Xuan Shijing said.

Qiandui nodded.

But the fame at this moment can also increase the value of merchants with brands by a lot. From the current point of view, I have to say that Xuan Shijing's strategy is good. Take revenge on those people.

Qiandui is very well connected in Chang'an City, and his methods are also very good. Xuan Shijing ordered Qiandui to do it, and Qiandui was quickly completed. On the same day, people from the third floor of Xuanwu Building came to the third floor. , there are also quite a few reputable merchants, and more of them are the common people in the city.
