The war between the Mo Kingdom and the Yan Kingdom has entered the most critical moment.
It has also entered a stalemate.
The Mo Kingdom was unstoppable all the way, and in less than a month, they reached the capital of the Yan Kingdom.
They surrounded Dajing, the capital of Yan State.
In just one month, Yan State lost most of its territory.
In this war, it seems to have become a fact that the Mo country is strong and the Yan country is weak.
From the very beginning, Mo State launched a blitzkrieg war, catching Yan State off guard and gaining an absolute advantage.
However, the centipede insect is dead but not stiff.
A skinny camel is bigger than a horse.
As the most powerful country among the seven countries, Yan State did not completely collapse because of this.
Now, this war has lasted for three months.
The desert country has been surrounding the capital city for nearly two months.
But in the capital city, the walls are high and the pools are deep.
The desert country did not take advantage at all.
The pace of the attack has stalled.
It is said that the troops of King Qin from various places in the eastern part of Yan Kingdom have begun to gather and move towards the capital city.
In the western part of Yan State occupied by Mo State, resistance has never stopped...
In particular, when Yan State retreated to the capital, it adopted a strategy of clearing the country.
Not only were the people from around the capital moved into the city, but all the food that could be eaten was also brought into the city.
The capital city surrounded by the desert army consumes countless amounts of food and grass every day, and all of it needs to be transported from far behind...
This is undoubtedly a huge burden for the desert country, which is mainly nomadic and likes to support war.
Now that the blitz battle has turned into a tug-of-war, the result is particularly obvious.
In other words, Mo Country launched this war, but got itself into this quagmire.
By the time Duan Wenjun finished his analysis, Guan Xing on the side had already frowned, "So, do you think the Yan State will win? That means the imperial court will still need annual cloth to give to the Yan State. But why do you want Lin Jingyun to give away all the raw materials in Rhine County?" What about selling it?”
"That's right!" Chai Jingyun nodded, "I've also heard that Miss Shu'er put a lot of effort into hoarding these raw materials. Even the Dai family had a headache, so she had to resort to so many dirty tricks."
"Even if we don't do this business, we can make nearly three times the profit from those raw materials alone." Lin Shuer's face showed a bright smile. "Besides, almost all the raw materials from several counties near the capital are Most of it is in our hands.”
Although Lin Shuer didn't understand Duan Wenjun's thoughts, her first thing at this time was to protect Duan Wenjun's face.
"In other words, even if the Dai family buys back the raw materials that Miss Lin had hoarded before, his cost will increase at least three times." Chai Jingyun said thoughtfully, "But even so, he cannot bring anything back to the Dai family. There will be too much loss. As long as the business of this year's cloth is here, the Dai family can make a profit. As for the price of this year's cloth..."
When he said this, Chai Jingyun's face became extremely embarrassed, "I'm afraid that the Dai family will raise the price on the spot on the grounds that the price of raw materials has increased. The court could not raise enough old cloth, so it had to compromise with the Dai family. .”
"So, is it possible that such a large court cannot control the Dai family?" Mo Shoucheng, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.
He knew that the four major families in the capital were powerful, but he did not expect that they were so powerful that they could challenge the imperial court.
Moreover, he seemed to hear from Chai Jingyun's tone that he vaguely meant to blame Duan Wenjun.
When Duan Wenjun asked Lin Shuer to come to the capital in advance to purchase fabric raw materials, Mo Shoucheng followed him.
So, he knows.
When the Lin family received news from the capital, they were planning to prepare raw materials for New Year's cloth. They also wanted to make a deal with Duan Wenjun, so that Duan Wenjun could redeem the properties that the Duan family sold to the Lin family at the original price.
However, he was rejected by Duan Wenjun.
However, the Lin family did not stop their actions, but began to operate secretly.
After getting the news, Duan Wenjun gave Lin Shuer a sum of money and used the identity of the Lin family to purchase raw materials near the capital.
Naturally, just as the Lin family's purchase of materials in Wangjiang caused prices to rise, the prices of fabric raw materials in Beijing also continued to rise.
In particular, Lin Shuer received Duan Wenjun's request and has been competing with the Dai family and constantly raising prices, causing the price of raw materials in Beijing to keep rising, more than double the price in Wangjiang.
Although, Mo Shoucheng was also very surprised when Duan Wenjun left Lin Jingyun in Rhine County and asked him to sell all the raw materials.
He originally thought that Duan Wenjun asked Lin Shuer to come to compete with the Dai family near the capital because he did not want the Dai family to purchase raw materials at too low a price and occupy too much market power.
However, Duan Wenjun's current response made him a little confused.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the price of cloth and raw materials is rising again and again, all in an effort to compete for the share of cloth in the near future.
Whoever has more raw materials will be able to weave more cloth, and will naturally be more favored by the court.
Of course, perhaps everyone is not focused on this year’s profits, but on the long-term.
It’s a big share, but it doesn’t matter if I don’t make much this year.
If the share is high and the market calms down a bit next year, there will be opportunities to earn more.
It is impossible for the Dai family not to know this truth.
However, they did not expect Lin Shuer to strike first and at such a fast speed.
By the time the Dai family reacted, Lin Shuer had already taken control of nearly half of the raw materials.
However, the Dai family is rich and powerful, and under their operation, they have occupied a lot of shares.
Therefore, with only a few days of response time, the Dai family was frantically purchasing raw materials, and the price was naturally high.
No one expected that Lin Shuer, who originally wanted to compete with the Dai family, would actually sell all the raw materials in her hands.
Of course, although Lin Jingyun came forward, these raw materials were not sold in the name of the Lin family.
Therefore, by the time the Dai family reacted, the Lin family's raw materials had almost been sold.
The Lin family can naturally make some money by selling the materials.
However, considering the huge annual cloth order, this is undoubtedly equivalent to killing the goose that lays the egg.
Although the Lin family made a temporary profit, in the long run, it was a failure.
The annual cloth collection is about to begin. If the Lin family controls the raw materials, they can naturally do something big and take a certain initiative among the imperial merchants.
Even if you can't compete with the Dai family, you still have a chance to rise, and at least you can make more money...
However, Duan Wenjun asked Lin Jingyun to take charge and sell off all the raw materials, which is confusing...
