Water Margin farming to become powerful

In Dengzhou, Sun Xin was pacing in the house, and the sound of the abacus hitting came from the small office outside the flower hall from time to time. He felt a little bored in his heart. He made a thick cup of tea and drank it to suppress the feeling of irritability in his heart.

After waiting for half the morning, a young farmer finally came out from the next room.

"Has the data been produced?"

"It's all counted."

Sun Xin nodded, took the report from the banker and ordered: "Give it to the office immediately, and each supervisor will send a copy."

His servants hurried over, and now there is a complete small office in Sun Xin's house. In addition to his staff, several secretaries who help him with affairs also work here on weekdays. In addition, there is a guard squad and a small printing room, where someone is responsible for typesetting and copying the documents Sun Xin needs.

After the dealer left, Sun Xin picked up the report and read it carefully, frowning and thinking every time he read a page.

After a while, he got up from his seat and called for the staff of the Supervisory Board Bank.

The cadres of the bank came in to read the report with Sun Xin, and after a while, Sun Xin ordered him to call other people.

The eldest son, Sun Yu, is four years old and has already skipped the first grade. Now he is in the second grade in the Supervisory Council Primary School. If Sun Xin didn't let the school watch him, he might be able to dance again.

When Sun Yu came home from school, he saw a lot of uncles coming and going in his father's yard, so he consciously didn't go to the flower hall, but turned to look for Aunt Ya'er.

The second son, Sun Ding, also babbled and ran out to find his father, but was quickly carried back by the wet nurse.

I found a group of mid-level cadres to analyze it for half the morning, and Sun Xin finally got a general idea of ​​the situation. At this time, Le He and others also came over, and Sister Gu also came with her. She just gave Sun Xinsheng a little girl this summer.

The child is only three months old and hasn't been weaned yet, but Sister Gu has too many things on her hands and has already returned to work. On weekdays, the child is left to the nurse to take care of.

When she got home, she didn't have time to hold the baby, so she went into Sun Xin's office with a bunch of reports, and Hu Sanniang came soon after.

Everyone looked happy when they entered the room.

When the imperial court just started to guard against the Supervisory Council, everyone was worried that the momentum of the Supervisory Council's development would be blown down at once, but it turned out that two months later, the situation of the Supervisory Council was much better than everyone had imagined.

Today is actually just a temporary regular meeting, but the number of supervisors who came back is more than most of the previous meetings.

Now the court's suppression of the Supervisory Council is too obvious, and everyone is concerned about the situation of the Supervisory Council.

Jiang Jing from the bank was the first to speak, "In general, the market is relatively calm. Although many people were unwilling to invest in the first month, and some people hoarded assets at home, the market has basically recovered by this month, and the income of our supervisory committee has not decreased significantly."

Sun Xin: "How much did you lose?"

"You can see the specific reduction figures in the report. Calculated in two months, it will be reduced by half at most. This half reduction will be equal to the book in three to four months."

Everyone was very optimistic when they heard the words, but Sun Xin frowned slightly. He said, "One more thing, Zhao Ji's tricks on us are already effective. Originally, we have opened many new factories in Shandong this year. It stands to reason that tax revenue and the income of the supervisory committee should have increased, but now they have decreased by half. Although it looks like it should be able to make up for it in the second half of the year, the loss is real."

Although Sun Xin said so, the faces of everyone present were still quite happy.

From Sun Xin's point of view, the Supervisory Committee shouldn't have suffered such a loss, but in everyone's heart, it is completely different.

They are now fighting against the imperial court. It has always been a big expense to rebel against the regime and the imperial court in this kind of place.

Now, under Sun Xin’s rule, Shandong has been targeted by the imperial court for two months. Not only has it not suffered serious damage, taxes are still being collected, and the lives of the people are still considered comfortable. This is already much better than the best scenario many pessimistic people imagined before.

After supplementing, Sun Xin turned his attention to Sister Gu, "The situation of Sun Ji."

Sister Gu said: "Sun Ji's business has been hit hard, and now we can only try our best to use smuggling to transport our goods out of various gates."

Sun Xin asked, "Is there a backlog of goods?"

"That's not true, but the price of goods is falling."

"It's dropped by a few percent."

"More than ten percent."

Sun Xin rubbed his chin with a smile, and said to everyone: "I'm thinking about whether to lower the price of the goods a little more. Anyway, our profit is high enough. Now that the imperial court doesn't let us sell the goods, let's stop hiding them."

"If we lower the price to [-]% of the current price, I can guarantee that no one in Hebei will spin their own yarn anymore, and they will have to buy it from Shandong."

Hearing the words, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay. Some people had opinions in their hearts but they dared not speak out at this time. After all, they were quite worried about starting a war with the imperial court before.

Before the showdown between Sun Xin and the imperial court, there was a wave of fear in the entire Shandong supervisory committee.However, following the past two months in Shandong, this feeling of business as usual is also rapidly dissipating, and what is exchanged for it is a stronger trust in the supervisory committee.

Originally, everyone only thought that the Supervisory Council was a profitable organization, but they felt hair-raising when they wanted to confront the imperial court.

But now everyone already felt that the Supervisory Council was capable of wrestling with the imperial court. The court's two-month invalid sanction had instead put a layer of gold on the Supervisory Council, which had an unexpected publicity effect.

Sun Xin looked at all the beings in the field and smiled inwardly.

What the general said thousands of years later: "Victory is the best way to solve ideological problems" is indeed a wise saying.

Originally, if I said such a strategy two months ago, I would definitely attract a lot of opposition, but now everyone is wondering whether my method of actively lowering the price will be too radical, but I have won before, and now everyone dare not say anything anymore.

The reason why he dared to compete with Da Song was that Sun Xin had already made mental preparations.

The powerful industrial capabilities mastered by their Supervisory Council can't be matched by Da Song. The cotton yarn of the Supervisory Council plus profit and freight is sent to Da Song's territory, which is [-]% cheaper than Da Song's own production.

With [-]% of the profit, those businessmen dare to do anything.

What's more, there is no detailed customs system in the Song Dynasty today. Shandong and the surrounding state capitals have such a long border line. If there is a hole in any place, it will be a steady stream of industrial products exported.

Coupled with the routine of cleaning the place of production, the simple trick here will take several years for the lighthouse country to digest after thousands of years. As long as there is a difference in industrial capabilities, it is simply a dream to use trade sanctions to overthrow the Supervisory Council in this era.
