pier.
Above the river, the flags of merchant ships covered the sky and the sun, attracting everyone's attention.
The strange thing is that these merchant ships originally planned to arrange manpower to load and unload the grain brought on board, but they were told by the government officials that they had no right to unload the grain on the ship and had to wait for Jia Yun's order before they could unload the goods.
However, Jia Yun does not restrict the movement of people. If people on these boats want to get off, they can move freely.
However, for these businessmen, if people come down but the goods can’t come out, what’s the use?
After all, they were merchants who came to buy and sell food, not human beings.
Once people come down, there is no use for them.
Seeing that these officers and soldiers did not allow them to unload the cargo, they also made everyone linger on the ship, not daring to leave easily.
He was afraid that if he left, the cargo and food on the ship would be robbed by others.
In the eyes of everyone, the food on the ship is the capital of their own business and this trade, and it is even a risky move that blocks all their wealth.
If they lose it, or if it is snatched away by someone, I'm afraid they will never be able to get over it in their lifetime.
Ever since they heard that the price of food here has skyrocketed to an outrageous price, they have been working non-stop, traveling at night and night, urging everyone to come here as soon as possible, just to get ahead of everyone and sell their food at a high price. Profit from it.
But I never expected that when this person came, the food also came, but Jia Yun wouldn't let these people get off the ship to unload the food.
For a moment, everyone was like ants on a hot pot, wandering around the bow of the ship with a frown. From time to time, they cast concerned eyes, looked at the position at the dock, and kept slapping their palms, feeling extremely anxious and anxious. He said distressedly: "How can this be good! These grains are my life and property. If the transaction fails, I may not be able to escape death."
During the years of famine, except for a few places where food prices were relatively stable, relatively difficult food problems occurred in other places.
Most of the grain in the hands of these grain merchants is clean grain, which is stored in the rice warehouses in their shops. A small number of grains are from unclean sources. As for the uncleanness, they are just reselling grain from the official warehouse. That’s all.
This behavior has been the same throughout the ages and has never disappeared or changed.
Therefore, although they are anxious about clean food, they are not as anxious and anxious as these people.
Just when everyone was anxious, Lu Sanxue, aboard the largest merchant ship, looked at the dock in the distance and asked a few people around her, "Have you followed my instructions to inform the imperial minister?"
"Master, we went to do it, but we didn't see the gentleman in person. However, before I left, I gave the officer and soldier guarding the door some money. I think he will do the work for us after he got the money." A man of medium height , a middle-aged man with an increasingly older appearance, wearing a long gown, looked at Lu Sanxue in front of him and said.
Hearing this, Lu Sanxue also pondered: "We merchants have needed a backer to do business since ancient times. Now Master Yun needs food. If we come to help in times of need, we can also follow the example of our ancestor Lu Buwei in the past and create a story of living with rare goods!"
To do business in the Eastern land, you need to find a backer, a red-top businessman, nothing more than that.
Just like the Xue family in Jinling, the Xue family was an imperial merchant supported by the emperor.
It was precisely because the Xue family had the emperor as their backer that they were able to obtain such great wealth.
In addition to the Xue family, there are many small businessmen who want to rise to the top, but they just have no chance!
Lu Sanxue is a descendant of Lu Buwei.
People of his generation can barely be regarded as wealthy businessmen in a single place.
But if Lu Sanxue wanted to expand her territory and get involved in other territories, she would need a bigger backer.
If he didn't have this patron supporting him in the imperial court, I'm afraid he wouldn't be qualified to fight those local snakes.
do business
Just take other people's cake.
An ancient saying goes: "Destroying someone's wealth is like killing one's parents."
This hatred is so great.
The bigger the business gets, the more dissatisfied and jealous people become.
If there were no towering trees behind him, he might not even know how Lu Sanxue died.
Lu Sanxue could solve the local issues in the province, but he had no way to solve the problems outside the province.
So, after Lu Sanxue heard that Jia Yun was encountering difficulties and found out that the price of food here was soaring, she guessed the truth and hurriedly came to deliver food to Jia Yun.
Not for anything else, nor for making money, his idea was to have this relationship with Jia Yun, and to find Jia Yun as a backer. This time the grain could be used as a certificate of nomination, a ticket to gain the initial trust of both parties.
The person next to Lu Sanxue asked: "Master, is this really worth it? This time we have risked all our wealth. If we fail, I'm afraid we will have to start all over again!"
When Lu Sanxue heard this, she smiled slightly and said calmly: "For those of us who do business, how can we have a perfect deal? Even if there is such a business, it is mostly a scam. Since ancient times, wealth has been gained through danger. If I I am content with the status quo. With my current worth, I can already rest. The money in the treasury is more than I can spend in a few lifetimes, so why do I need to do such a dangerous thing?"
After hearing Lu Sanxue's words, others were even more puzzled: "Why did the boss take the risk?"
Lu Sanxue looked at the world in front of her, her eyes suddenly became firm, and she said categorically: "How can a man live in the world between heaven and earth and live in depression for a long time? My ancestor Lu Buwei is so famous that he has left his name through the ages. Even though he is dead, his name can be Hanging on the bamboo and silk. As a descendant of the Lu family, how can I covet pleasure and live in a corner, muddle along and live in peace? A real man should develop his grand plans and strive for great achievements in the world.".net
The ambition of a man is like the Kunpeng, which needs to fly ninety thousand miles high.
But the swans and sparrows can never compare with Kunpeng.
Lu Sanxue has always had a dream in her heart, which is to revive the glory of her ancestors, become the richest businessman in the world, and leave a name in history, so that her trip to this world will not be in vain, and she will not waste her life in regret and inaction.
The people next to him also learned about Lu Sanxue's ambition. They couldn't help but gasped and said hurriedly: "My boss, we are willing to follow my boss to expand our territory and do business all over the world."
While everyone was chatting, Jia Yun led a group of people to the dock.
With Jia Yun's arrival, merchants from various families hurried to the dock to discuss selling grain with Jia Yun.
