I was the emperor in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 1041 Conspiracy, Wang Family's Counterattack
Although Li Tian and others went south in secret this time, even in order to keep it secret, he did a lot of things to conceal the truth.

However, he is the lord of a country after all, and there are too many people who pay attention to him all the time.

How could it be prevented.

Although it didn't spread in a large area, but in a small area, the news that Li Tian had already toured the south and was no longer in the capital still spread.

At this time, people with a heart start to move around.

The first one who couldn't bear it was the Wang family.

The Wang family has been a wealthy family in Langya for hundreds of years. First, because the royal bank was cut off a profitable hand, and later in the process of fighting for cotton, it almost exhausted the funds above the average level of the family.

Although the current Wang family is not yet reduced to a second-class family, it has almost fallen from the ranks of the top wealthy families.

Such a setback, such a loss, how could the Wang family be willing to let it go.

So after they confirmed that Li Tian had left the capital, it was impossible to return in a short time.

Immediately began to contact those officials and wealthy families who were better friends in the past.

It has to be said that the Langya royal family is worthy of being a centuries-old family with a wide network of contacts, and it is definitely not comparable to a third-rate small family.

In less than a day, they recruited more than a dozen families who had also suffered losses under Li Tian's New Deal reform.

On this day, they gathered together to discuss how to restore their former glory, how to make Li Tian bleed a little, and let him know that they are not easy to bully.

Today's Royal Bank has tens of millions of deposits, and more than half of the people and small businessmen in the capital basically have money transactions with the Royal Bank.

It can be said that the cornerstone of the current royal bank is already solid, as long as there are no major accidents, basically no one can move it.

Even if more than a dozen of their families joined forces, they would never be able to shake the status of the Royal Bank at this time.

They also knew this situation, so they did not regard the Royal Bank as their first target.

What they are now targeting is the trading houses that shined a few years ago, and the soap workshops that are unparalleled in the limelight and making huge profits that make people envious.

The people who can gather here are basically the helmsmen of big families, and no one has a bad vision.

They can already see at this time that this trading house will inevitably become an extremely fierce battlefield for capital strangulation in the future.

As for soap, it will surely become a good thing that will be popular throughout Daming and even the whole world in the future.

They haven't found a suitable opportunity and method yet for the fighting among trading houses.

But for things like soap, they can get their hands on it a little bit.

You must know that soap with the same volume and weight is currently priced at the same price as silver, and some people even use soap as hard currency to replace silver for transactions.

Even sometimes, the price of soap will even overflow a lot.

How can such a huge profit keep them from being tempted?
Nowadays, in the entire Ming Dynasty, there is only one place in the capital, where there are soap workshops.

It is only supplying one place in the capital, and some production capacity is insufficient.

The future market has great potential for growth.

Although there are some discerning businessmen who obtained the scarce supply through various means, and sold the soap little by little to the wealthy places in the south, earning a lot of money.

But that little supply, for the southern region with a huge population base and far more affluence than the north, it is estimated that it is not even enough to fit the gap between the teeth.

This is only the domestic situation. For overseas countries, it is simply a large untapped blue ocean.

They may not be able to compete with soap workshops with royal backgrounds in China, but they can take a share of the foreign market.

This is what they mainly discussed today.

However, all of this has a major premise, that is, the soap making process and material ratio are still a secret at present, and are closely guarded by the people in the workshop.

If they want a share of the pie, they must first get the production technology in their hands.

Although these wealthy people are used to being arrogant, they are still very hesitant when their opponent is the royal family.

But the Wang family is already broken at this time, and they don't care whether they will offend the royal family.

The royal family said to them,

"We have sent people to spend a lot of money to buy the workers in the workshop.

As long as they are willing to reveal the news, no matter how strict the workshop's secrecy is, we still have a way to figure out the production process of soap. "

"Our Wang family pays for the purchase of the recipe, as long as we have the recipe, we can share it with you for free.

But there is one thing we want to say in advance.

After all, our Wang family is taking the biggest risk this time, no matter which one of you gets the formula from us, we will take [-]% of the profits from future sales..."

As soon as these words came out, everyone started to mutter.

Some people even jumped out and said,

"Your Wang family is too unkind. Just providing a formula will take up [-]% of our income. Is this clearly just sitting around and collecting money? No, no..."

Naturally, the Wang family had expected that someone would say that.

But they did not flinch, but said coldly,
"You can't stand the [-]% profit?
You know, if my Wang family didn't take this risk, you wouldn't even be able to drink some soup dregs, and the remaining [-]% of the profit will be given to you, and you have already earned it. If you are not willing to pay even this small profit .

Then today, I will pretend that my Wang family didn't say anything, everyone please go back! "

The order to evict customers was issued, and now those who thought the share was too high immediately shut up.

What the Wang family said was right, without the recipe, they couldn't even drink the soup.

Although it is necessary to contribute [-]% of the profits to participate, it is better than not earning a penny at all.

After such a scare from the Wang family, everyone became quiet, and no one dared to criticize anymore.

Seeing that everyone basically agreed, the Wang family showed a satisfied smile on their faces.

"So, let's discuss how to build workshops in the future, where to build workshops, and how to train workers."

The Wang family is putting all their eggs in one basket this time. Whether the Wang family can be brought back to life and stand in the first echelon of the wealthy family again depends on their success this time.

That's why they took the risk of being exterminated by the royal family and completely disappearing from the ranks of the wealthy to do this matter.

Don't look at them as if they are taking great risks, but the success rate is still very high.

They had already thought about it a long time ago, this time they only provided the formula, and did not participate in the specific production and sales affairs.
