Chapter 97
"So this time not only didn't lose money, but also made a lot of money?" Feng Jiang asked in surprise after listening to Wei Yixue's narration of what happened these days.

When Wei Yixue arrived in Luoyang, she got the news that Yangzhou Chu Jingye had raised troops, so she sold the goods at a preferential price in Luoyang.

Just half a day after he sold the goods, the news began to spread widely in Luoyang.

There are wars and roads are impassable, which is very fatal for commercial companies.

Under normal circumstances, these convoys from the west will stop in Luoyang to wait and see the development of the situation.

If the war can be quelled in a short period of time, it will have little impact.

If it drags on for a few months, or even a year or so, many commercial firms will be overwhelmed.

Especially some goods need to be sold in time, otherwise there is a possibility of damage.

At any rate, news of the rebellion came, and these eastward shipments fell.

During the period of war, prices soared, which also depends on the situation.

Now that everyone knows the news, some people are not going to ship the goods back to Jiangnan, so they have to change hands in Luoyang.

The person taking over here in Luoyang is not an idiot, so when is the price not lowered at this time?

It cannot be said how early Wei Yixue got the news, at least some big forces in Luoyang must have got the news.

It's just that these news are still circulating in a small area, which gave Wei Yixue room to manipulate, and finally sold at a relatively satisfactory price.

If the news spreads, the selling price of this batch of goods will drop by at least half.

That's a few 10 taels of silver.

"If Bai Changxing hadn't gotten the news in time, I wouldn't have been able to sell the goods in Luoyang in time." Wei Yixue said with some lingering fear.

It's almost a loss.

Of course, some people are not ready to sell now because the price is too low, and the chaos of fighting will soon subside.

This is a gamble, and if you lose the bet, the loss will be even greater.

Wei Yixue didn't want to take such a risk, so she exchanged the goods for silver, so it would be convenient for her to do anything afterwards.

Wei's firm has no roots in Luoyang, but Bai's firm is different.

The financial strength of Bai's Commercial Bank is far higher than that of Wei's Commercial Bank, and they have already opened up the situation in Luoyang.

I have made friends with many high-ranking officials and nobles in Luoyang, so I am much more informed than Wei's firm in terms of news.

Whether it is a shopping mall or a battlefield, the importance of news is beyond doubt.

Feng Jiang sighed in his heart, he couldn't help thinking of the palace.

The Wangfu is too lagging behind in collecting information now.

Even if Yang Yuze promised to inform Luoyang of the latest news in time, it would not be a good thing.

These things are in the hands of others, too passive.

When this matter is over, the news matter has to be put on the agenda.

To some extent, this is also one of his responsibilities as the personal guard chief.

"Then what was loaded on the car you transported back to Chang'an this time?" Feng Jiang couldn't help asking.

He knew those cars were full of goods.

"Silk, tea and other specialties from Jiangnan." Wei Yixue patted her chest, a little scared and said, "Now the things from Jiangnan have doubled in Luoyang. Fortunately, I act quickly, otherwise I will lose a lot. gone."

"Is this a good way to get cheap?" Feng Jiang was a little speechless.

"Since we know the news in advance, we should make good use of it," Wei Yixue said.

Indeed, Feng Jiang knew that Wei Yixue had some skills in business.

The war caused poor roads, and a large number of goods from the Western Regions were stranded in Luoyang, and the prices naturally dropped.

It is precisely because of the poor roads that in a short period of time, it may be difficult for the goods from Jiangnan to reach Luoyang, and the price will rise when the quantity is small. This is a very simple reason.

Wei Yixue took advantage of the bad news and sold high and received low.

Now that these Jiangnan specialties are transported from Luoyang to Chang'an City, the price can be doubled several times.

It's no wonder that Lu Boshui would have the idea of ​​Wei's commercial convoy. Feng Jiang felt that even without Tian's relationship, after knowing what the goods in the convoy were, he might become greedy.

Although Lu Boshui and Shi Xinglie have not yet been interrogated, Feng Jiang can be sure that the two of them have colluded together before to do this kind of murder and looting.

One is the strongest Jianghu faction in the local area, and the other is the local county government. If there is no strong caravan, there will be no bones left.

As long as the interests are large enough, people will become bottomless and capable of anything.

"In this way, the palace has made a lot of money." Feng Jiang said with a smile.

"Luck, maybe you will lose next time, so it will be difficult to do business." Wei Yixue said.

"Sister Wei will definitely not pay." Liu Qiaoyu said from the side.

"How can there be a stable profit in business?" Wei Yixue shook her head and said, "Hope is a small loss, otherwise, the business may not be able to continue. Now I don't know when the war will subside. If it drags on for too long, the Western Regions I’m afraid the business here will be abandoned.”

Feng Jiang searched his memory and found that he knew little about Chu Jingye's rebellion.

He knew that he was in the game, so he didn't pay much attention to what happened in the court.

Especially if this happened before the game started, or decades ago, that is, it may be mentioned in some game tasks.

Anyway, Feng Jiang didn't have much contact with it.

He knew that Chu Jingye had failed, but he was not too clear about how long the war lasted.

"It shouldn't be too long." Feng Jiang thought for a while and said.

"Brother Feng thinks so too?" Wei Yixue stared at Feng Jiang with some surprise.

"So you already have an idea."

"This is just my personal guess. Now that Big Brother Feng said the same thing, I feel more at ease." Wei Yixue said with a sigh of relief, "Brother Feng, you must have unique insights, can you tell me about it?"

How could Feng Jiang have any unique insights.

He just inferred from some of his own memories.

Since I have almost no impression of this matter in the game, it means that Chu Jingye's rebellion did not have much impact on the court, and it should have been quelled soon, and most likely there was no big wave.

"I don't dare to say too much. One thing I think is that Chu Jingye's rebellion will definitely fail." Feng Jiang pondered for a while and said, "Yangzhou has always been prosperous, how many people will follow Chu Jingye's rebellion?"

"Brother Feng, I think so too." Wei Yixue nodded repeatedly, "Actually, there have been a lot of rebellions over the years, and they are not successful. The imperial court is merciless in suppressing rebellions, and most of the people in Yangzhou will not follow Chu Jingye. Rebellion, no soldiers, no support, failure is inevitable.”

Feng Jiang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it must have been fooled.

In fact, he knew that although Da Chu had various problems, he had not yet reached the end of a dynasty.

It is impossible to overthrow the imperial court with one or two rebellions.

The collapse of a dynasty is often due to the corruption of officials in the last period, natural disasters and man-made disasters, and the people's livelihood, so there are various possibilities of uprisings.

Da Chu is far from reaching this level.

Take Chu Xiuhui as an example, she later ascended the throne as the emperor, the court was chaotic, and she used troops abroad to win battles and victories, which shows the background of Great Chu.
