"I still have twenty thousand taels left here..."
"I don't have much here, only about 15,000 taels!"
…
In the end, all the people together could not collect one hundred thousand taels of silver. Now they were completely dumbfounded.
"Collect it from me. One hundred thousand taels of silver is enough! I don't believe how much inventory he has in hand!"
Liu Xian said with red eyes.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is right, I don't believe how much more they have in their hands? Besides, the best green salt only costs 150 cents. Even if my prince cooks the salt himself, I'm afraid the price won't be able to come down. !”
Of course Yang Sheng had to come out and play the drums at the critical moment, otherwise, Liu Xian would have to kick him back to Guangling.
"Master Sheep is right, this is not the coarse salt from before. At the current price, I will buy as much as he has!"
Zhao Tingfang hurriedly came out to express his position. At this time, they are all grasshoppers on a rope. If Liu Xian is unlucky, they will not be able to go anywhere.
What's more, unlike these people, Liu Xian is a dignified prince of the Wu Kingdom. Even if something goes wrong, he can still go back and be his prince. It just costs a little money, so it doesn't matter.
After all, the money belongs to the family, but it is different for people like them. The money in their hands belongs to the princes and princes behind them.
Although the princes were usually very respectful to them, they knew it in their hearts. If the princes knew that they had lost such a large amount of money, they would be in trouble if they didn't skin them all!
For their own lives, they have to be active!
"I say everyone, we have to make two plans. While sending people to collect salt, we have to hurry up and continue to raise money!"
Zhao Tingfang also knew in his heart that they had to prepare for the worst at this time. If Liu Deng had more inventory than they expected, as long as their confidence was shaken, the things in their hands would be completely destroyed. It fell into their own hands.
For the coarse salt lumps in their hands, they worked hard and sent all the real money to Liu Deng's hands, so they were able to raise the price to the current level.
Once the price drops to the bottom, they will lose all their money. Their own net worth is said to be hundreds of thousands, but compared to the money they used this time, it is really a drop in the bucket!
Even if we sell them all, I'm afraid we still won't be able to repay the debts of those princes.
"Old Zhao is right. If we don't show our strength, I'm afraid, each of us will die without a burial place this time. Your Highness, I will take my leave now. I will go back to raise money, even if it is to sell the shop. Even if you sell the land, I will stick with you to the end!"
"That's right, we have been forced to a dead end. What is the difference between these 1 million taels of silver and 10 million taels of silver to us?"
These businessmen are now like gamblers who have become obsessed with gambling, and this sentence really expresses their feelings.
There is no difference at all between the compensation of 1 million taels of silver and the compensation of 10 million taels of silver. It is just the death of a whole family, so just think of it as gambling with the whole family's life on wealth.
"What you big shopkeepers are saying makes sense. As the saying goes, wealth can be found in danger. This time it all depends on our luck!"
As Yang Sheng spoke, he picked up a glass of wine, raised it to the big shopkeepers, and drank it all in one gulp.
Everyone also picked up their glasses and drank it all in one gulp, then walked away.
"Your Majesty, those guys have started to move. Now they are starting to collect the salt in our warehouse like crazy. Do you think we should increase the price?"
Seeing the salt in the library flowing out like water, Nei Shi Chen Qi felt really distressed.
"What you said makes sense. That's good. Don't worry about him today. If they have a large sale tomorrow, they will increase the price by 100 fen, and then another 100 fen the day after tomorrow, until it reaches 500 fen!"
With that huge base, Liu Deng is now confident. Although he only has 150,000 dan in hand, his current production rate has reached 5,000 dan per day.
As long as they survive this first wave, they will naturally be timid by then. This is a good time to make money!
The Huns are coming soon. As the saying goes, when the gun fires and gold is ten thousand taels, the war begins, and there is no place to spend money. If you don't make more money at this time, there will be no such good opportunities in the future!
If you want to empty out the last penny in their pockets, you have to give them hope and let them see the price rising again, and then they will work hard to raise money.
"What do you mean, my lord?"
Hearing what the king said, Chen Qi didn't quite understand.
"If you want them to do their best, you have to give them some hope, right? Otherwise, the money bags of those princes and kings will not be so easy to untie!"
There was a sinister smile on Liu Deng's lips, and Chen Qi understood immediately.
"Your Majesty, this plan is very clever! If this is the case, I'm afraid they will suffer a big loss this time. This is because our production still needs to keep up!"
Having said that, if you want to make money, the supply must be sufficient.
"Don't worry about this. Otherwise, starting from tomorrow, I will ship 20,000 stone to me every day. As long as we persist for another 10 days, our output can be doubled!"
The daily output is 10,000 shi. This output is almost the output of the whole country in Wu State in 10 days.
This would have been unimaginable before, but now it has become a reality for Liu Deng.
In Zhang Tu's words, this is much faster than digging copper and casting money.
"I know what I'm doing. Don't worry, Your Majesty. Just take care of yourself this time!"
Although Chen Qi was really tired and vomiting blood after more than a day, his heart was extremely happy.
Seeing more and more money on his books, he suddenly felt like turning into a serf and singing.
This country has been in poverty for too long. Now it is better. I am afraid that the country will take off from now on.
"Okay, okay. From now on, I'll leave such little things to you. Don't bother me if you have anything to do. I want to think about our next move!"
Liu Deng said and started to chase people away. It was a hot summer, so I would be sorry for myself if I didn't go back quickly to discuss with Duke Zhou about what to do next.
"I retire. Your Majesty, you must take care of yourself and don't overwork yourself!"
Chen Qi looked at Liu Deng with admiration. His king was indeed wise and mighty. If it had been him, he would have been so happy that he didn't know how to celebrate.
How could it be possible that the king is so calm now!
