Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 82 Wuyin Merchants, Weijingping Trading Company!Down
Gong's mansion in the south of the city was lifeless, and there was an oppressive atmosphere in the mansion, which made all the long-term servants in the mansion feel the chill blowing towards their faces.

"Patriarch, we are all finished!"

Rory said bitterly.

In this battle, they lost so badly that they couldn't control the last price at all, and it went down all the way. The lower the price fell, the more miserable the Gong family would face.

"I see, you go down first!" Gong Chang sat on the seat, looking like an old teenager overnight.

This battle, he lost.

When the food price completely collapsed, he knew that he had lost, and lost the Gong family overnight.

There was no Gong family before.

After having him, the Gong family came into existence. For decades, he was comfortable going to the elite, being cautious in everything, abandoning his dignity, and flattering the nobles, but in the end he ended up with nothing.

The price of a whole hundred thousand shi of grain collapsed, and he was able to recover less than half of the funds in the end.

He already knew very well what he was about to wait for.

Above him is the gentry.

The gentry have never looked down on merchants, they will not give charcoal in the snow, they can only add insult to injury.

"Patriarch, the chief steward of the Gu family outside the mansion, please see me!"

"Please!"

Hearing this, Gong Chang's expression was as calm as water, as if everything was expected, he said calmly.

They come very quickly.

It quickly made him laugh a little mockingly in his heart.

"Patriarch Gong, we haven't seen each other for a long time!" The butler of the ancient mansion walked in. He was in his early 40s.

"Gu Butler, you are here this time..."

"Patriarch Gong, it has been so many days since we lent you food, the Gong family should settle the bill!" The butler of the ancient mansion said calmly, "So our Patriarch sent me here to urge you!"

There are silver ornaments in this era, but silver has not yet been included in the ranks of currencies. There are only two currencies in this era, one is five baht coins, one hundred thousand shi grains, and the average price is one thousand yuan, which is worth [-] million yuan. The official price is [-] yuan. Money is equal to one gold, that is ten thousand gold.

ten thousand gold...

The Gong family couldn't pay back the [-] grains, and now they can't afford this sum of money at all.

"Gu Butler, you are also aware of the current situation of my Gong family, can you forgive me for a while?" Hearing this, Gong Chang's expression was as calm as ever, but he struggled somewhat unwillingly.

Over the years, Gong Zhang has been at the forefront of everything he does. He has carried the pot for the gentry and has been injured, so he can be regarded as a dog of the gentry.

There is no credit or hard work.

There is no need to erase this debt, just to tolerate time, isn't it?
As long as he is given a little time, he thinks the Gong family can survive.

"Patriarch Gong, I'm actually very embarrassed, but this is an order from our Patriarch!"

The chief steward of the ancient mansion shook his head, his voice became a bit cold, and said: "There is still a long time before the autumn harvest, and the one hundred thousand shi of grain and grain is not owned by our family. You must know that this is a gathering of several of our family heads." If there is anything wrong with the food that comes out, our Gu family can't afford it, and your Gong family may also..."

"Please wait a moment, Steward Gu. I will calculate some assets in the family. No matter what, my Gong family has recognized this account. Even if the family goes bankrupt, I will not let you lose money!"

Gong Chang understood that this was a threat, but he had to eat the bitter fruit. He had three sons and two daughters, and managed to manage a family from a local ruffian. He couldn't destroy his family overnight.

Even if he has resentment in his heart.

This resentment must also be suppressed in the heart.

So he compromised.

[-] gold, that is [-] million yuan...

Three days later, the Gong family, the number one merchant in Wuyin, went bankrupt.

The entire Gong family had nothing but a mansion under Gong Chang's own name. After losing the price war, their vitality was severely injured, and then they were stabbed in the back by the vampires of the gentry. All the shops, properties, are basically used to fill the debt.

……

Jingping Firm.

"We won, the Gong family lost!"

Looking at the results of the past few days, Sun Hao couldn't help sighing a little: "One thousand yuan and one stone of rice, originally it was just a fried price. If it was just returned to the original price, those nobles would be worthy of it, and the Gong family can still hold on, but The family of the gentry is really ruthless, insisting on returning the entire price, we just fought head-on, but they slashed the Gong family from behind, the Gong family must be exhausted!"

"People who have no use value, they never take it to heart!"

Zhang Heng said with a sneer: "In their minds, a merchant is just a dog. If there is no more, just keep another dog. But they will not be willing to damage their own interests, so they have no burden in their hearts to sacrifice the Gong family. It is already Gong Zhang's ability to retreat completely!"

"What do you think of Gong Chang?"

Mu Jing suddenly became interested in this sad villain.

"Have the ability, have the city government!"

"But he has no bones, he is willing to be a dog, but he may not be willing to be a man!"

Zhang Heng and Sun Hao looked at each other and said.

"Have the ability, but no bones, it's not that such a person can't be used, it just depends on where you are placed!" Mu Jing said with a smile: "There will be no person who naturally wants to be a dog, he also wants to be dignified. To be a man is to see who can give him confidence!"

"The shopkeeper is planning to recruit this person to join the firm!"

Zhang Heng frowned.

"The icing on the cake is worse than sending charcoal in the snow. To put it bluntly, if the gentry stand behind this person sincerely, Lao Zhang, you may not be able to win the Gong family!" Mu Jing said.

He is very interested in Gong Zhang's ability. It is a talent to be able to compete with him in the mall in this backward era, the era when merchants were slaves.

"That's true!" Zhang Heng didn't doubt this. Gong Chang reacted too quickly in the mall. Even he didn't have the absolute confidence to defeat him. This time he was lucky, more because of the group of pigs around Gong Chang. Teammates, as well as the gentry's impatience to kill chickens and take eggs, that's why they can win the overall situation.

"It's up to you. If you are willing, you can get in touch. Why leave talents to others, let him work for us is the best way out!"

Mu Jing waved his hand, and said in a deep voice: "However, our top priority now is to get them, the losers, to chase after them. I want the entire Wuyin County. Among the merchants, there is only Jingping Trading Company. Only by uniting the business world can we fight against the gentry, and I want the world to know that merchants who are united cannot tolerate anyone's bullying!"

"Boss, what about the gentry?" Zhang Heng was very excited, but worried: "Will they end in person!"

The gentry has a profound background, and if it comes to funds, they can kill all of them.

After all, it was only the Zhu family's mansion that was copied at the beginning, and Mu Jing had reaped six thousand gold alone, which is not counting other things. One can imagine how terrible the background of the noble family is.

"rest assured!"

Mu Jing sneered, and said coldly: "At this time, they will definitely clamp their tails. After all, they have lost an arm. In the Wuyin business world, they can use very little power. The most important thing is that they will not damage their reputation. , They think from the bottom of their hearts that merchants are lowly, how can they end up in person, so we need the fastest speed to wipe out Wuyin!"

"promise!"

When the two of you heard this, your blood boiled all over your body. To them, this was an honor, and it belonged to merchants.

……

In the following time, the Wuyin business world changed dramatically.

"Brother Liu, what do you think?"

"Patriarch Sun is really ruthless!"

"They are all wine shops. Your Liu family's wine is good, and I don't want to see you collapse!"

"Okay, I promise you!"

"You will not regret today's decision in the future!"

"..."

"Brother Bai, how are you thinking?"

"Brother Zhang, do we have to kill them all? Don't forget, who is behind us?" The Bai family is a well-known merchant in the Gong family's formation. They also mainly deal in food, but this battle has seriously damaged their vitality. .

"If Brother Bai thinks that you can still rely on the gentry, I have nothing to say!"

Zhang Heng said indifferently: "I came here not because I have only one choice, but because I don't want to see us killing each other. After all, we are all businessmen with low status!"

"Is there no third choice?" The Patriarch of the Bai family looked gloomy.

"no!"

Zhang Heng said indifferently: "Either you become a merchant of Jingping Company, or you become an enemy of Jingping Company, you can choose one!"

"The Bai family joins Jingping Firm!"

The head of the Bai family struggled for a long time before making a helpless decision.

"This is a very wise decision!"

Zhang Heng's smile is full of confidence.

When a person is humble, he will always be humble, but when his success can be contagious, he will make himself confident. Zhang Heng has never been as confident in his identity as a merchant as he is now.

……

After the food price war ended, the Gong family was defeated, and the merchants on the Gong family's side were severely injured. As the winner, Jingping Trading Co., Ltd. continued to attack and expand Jingping's territory with abundant funds.

In the entire Wuyin business world, within ten days, more than [-]% of the merchants have become merchants of Jingping Trading Company.

Since then, Wuyin merchants, Weijingping Trading Company!
