The snow on the grassland always comes earlier than in the north of Ming Dynasty, but this year the snow on the grassland comes earlier. 5 eight 5 eight 5 read 5 books, o
"It's only October and it's snowing now. The herdsmen are having a hard time again this year."
Yang Jing was wearing a leather robe, with his neck curled up, holding a cup of hot tea in his hands, breathing hot air from his mouth.
"Our life is not easy either."
There is another person sitting in the room, who is also a Han businessman from Banshengdi. Like Yang Jing, he also cooperates with Huziqi. He is also a shareholder of the shops on the grassland of Huziqi. Together with Yang Jing, he manages Banshengdi. shop.
Yang Jing said, "Boss Chen, you said that the Fan family did this not to make a profit at a loss. I have asked the people who delivered the goods from Tiger Flag. At the price of the goods sold by the Fan family on the grassland, they did not make any money at all." , I still have to put in a lot of effort."
Chen Guangyu said, "You still don't understand this. This is to squeeze the Tiger Flag out of the grassland. Now I regret joining the Chamber of Commerce of the Tiger Flag and becoming a shareholder of this shop."
"It's easy to lower the price, but it's difficult to raise the price. What the Fan family did was simply a way of hurting the enemy by one thousand and hurting themselves by eight hundred." Yang Jing said with a frown.
Fanji Chamber of Commerce cooperated with several powerful Han merchants in Bansheng City to lower the price of goods and sold them to herders at low prices. Even Han merchants like the Zhao family in Bansheng City also bought a lot.
The price of the same thing was so cheap that many herdsmen began to no longer buy from the shops in Huzi Banner, but instead exchanged various needed goods from several Han merchants in Bansheng City.
Yang Jing's Banshengdi is next to Bansheng City, and his shop here has been the most affected. No herders have come to buy from him for almost half a month.
Chen Guangyu, who was wrapped up like a ball, said, "If this continues, the family will soon be unable to open the pot. Why don't you go to Qingcheng and see what the Tiger-character Flag says? We can't waste it like this, even if the Tiger-Character Flag consumes Our whole family can’t afford it. Studying for 88 years, o”
Yang Jing showed a trace of hesitation.
Hu Ziqi completely handed over the management of the shop to him and Chen Guangyu, and only sent one accountant to manage the accounts. Normally, except for the accounting matters, he never interfered with other matters.
It can be said that this shop is just like his and Chen Guangyu's.
Faced with Hu Ziqi's trust, he didn't want to go to Hu Ziqi whenever he encountered a problem. He still hoped to find a solution on his own.
Chen Guangyu on the side said again, "If you don't go, then I will go. In this half month alone, the family has not made any income. If we persist, the whole family will not even be able to drink gruel. The key is that if we persist like this, we will not be able to drink gruel at all." It's of no use, as long as the Fan family doesn't raise the price, our shop will never have business."
"I'd better go," Yang Jing said.
He knew that what Chen Guangyu said was true. Even his family had begun to eat porridge to survive. If he continued to spend time with the Fan family, his family would have no income at all. With the little money his family had saved, it would be difficult to survive this winter.
"Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing?"
At this moment, the waiter's exclamation came from the front hall.
Yang Jing and Chen Guangyu hurriedly stood up, walked out of the back hall, and came to the front hall.
The front hall is where the shop sells goods. At this time, there are several Mongolian armored soldiers wearing fur coats standing in the shop, with scimitars on their waists.
"You are the steward of this shop." A Mongolian armored soldier led by him squinted at Yang Jing who came out of the back hall.
Yang Jingpei smiled and said, "I'm the steward of this shop. I wonder what those who come to the shop want to buy."
"Buy something, hum." The Mongolian armored soldier snorted coldly and said, "Taiji said that your shop is making money from the herdsmen, so he ordered us to inspect your shop and prepare all the things. We want to take them away."
"Is there some misunderstanding among you? Our shop is allowed to be opened by the Great Khan."
With that said, Yang Jing took out a piece of broken silver worth two ounces and stuffed it into the hands of the Mongolian armored soldier.
The Mongolian armored soldier got the silver, weighed it, put it into his arms, and said with a sneer, "You want to bribe us with silver. You are a black shop. You have made a lot of money from the herdsmen. Come and take everything in the shop." Move away.”
Yang Jing was stunned.
He didn't expect that the other party would empty out the goods in his shop after receiving his benefits.
Although his shop is not big, all the goods added up are worth more than a thousand taels of silver. If these Mongolian armored soldiers are moved away like this, he and Chen Guangyu cannot afford to lose money if they sell them.
"Can't take it, you can't take it."
Chen Guangyu rushed over to stop the Mongolian armored soldiers who were moving things out of the shop.
A Mongolian armored soldier on the side kicked Chen Guangyu to the ground, and at the same time took out the scimitar in his hand and was about to chop it down.
When the leading Mongolian armored soldier saw it, he yelled, "Leave him alone, hurry up and move your things into the car."
"Bah, Han Gou, you're lucky."
The Mongolian armored soldier holding the sword put away his scimitar and spat at Chen Guangyu who was on the ground.
In addition to some groceries, the shop also had a lot of ironware hanging on the walls. These Mongolian armored soldiers were the first to carry these ironware onto the car outside the door.
Yang Jing helped Chen Guangyu up from the ground and watched with cold eyes as these Mongolian armored soldiers moved items from inside the shop onto the cart outside.
These Mongolian armored soldiers and their vehicles were all ready. At first glance, it seemed that they did not arrive suddenly, but that they had been premeditated.
There were many Mongolian herdsmen standing outside the shop watching the excitement. At this time, they saw the Mongolian armored soldiers carrying the goods in the shop outside, and they kept cheering.
Many herdsmen even spat at their shops, cursing the tiger-character flag and the Han people.
"What can we do? What can we do?" Chen Guangyu stamped his feet anxiously.
Although Hu Ziqi had the largest share in this shop and suffered the greatest losses, he and Yang Jing also occupied a large share in the shop, and they also suffered considerable losses.
Compared to the Huzi Banner family, which has a huge business, the two of them are just a small family, and the loss this time was enough to bankrupt them both.
"Let them move." Yang Jing grabbed Chen Guangyu.
At this time, he knew that blocking was useless. Since these Mongolian armored soldiers dared to come to the shop to grab things, they would naturally not be afraid of the tiger-character flag, not to mention that there was a Taiji backing him behind this matter.
A few Mongolian armored soldiers carried a store of goods back and forth, and it took more than half an hour to move everything onto the cart outside.
Looking at the empty shop, Yang Jing felt heartbroken.
The leader of the Mongolian armored soldiers walked in from outside the door, stood in front of Yang Jing, and said coldly, "Go back and tell the people of Tiger Character Banner that if you want to open shops in our Mongolian territory, you must follow our Mongolian rules." The rule is that you will sell the Fan family’s goods at whatever price they sell for in the future. This time is a lesson to you. You Chinese dogs should not even think about making money from us herdsmen again."
"This is a shop that the Great Khan allowed us to open. Aren't you afraid that the Great Khan will blame you for doing this?" Chen Guangyu asked.
The Mongolian armored soldier snorted disdainfully.
Yang Jing said calmly, "May I ask which of these people belong to Tai Ji's tent, so that I can make it clear when I tell the tiger character flag."
The Mongolian armored soldier said coldly, "I might as well tell you that we are under Su Nang Tai Ji's account, and it was S Nang Tai Ji's order to search the goods in your shop."
After the Mongolian armored soldiers left, Chen Guangyu said helplessly, "Is Su Nang crazy? He even dares to disobey the Khan's orders."
Yang Jing, who was standing aside, said in a calm tone, "When did Su Nang care about the orders of the great Khan in Qingcheng?" 11
