Chapter 479: I am respected in heaven and earth

The mountains are dyed, the roads are traversing, and the flags are waving like shuttles. The sun walks and the moon is bright again. The horse is neighing and the bow passes through the mud. The wind is in harmony and the rain falls even more.

During the spring plowing season, people who hope to rain more will suddenly find that the rainy season is prolonged, which adds a little concern.

After Li Longji issued the order, the temporary disaster relief department was quickly operated and sent telegrams to the prefectures to check the positions of Changping. If there is any gap, report in a timely manner. If there is no report, it will be strict and severe. It will also send a call for the transactions of Zhang and Wang families in various places. If the supply of materials is needed, the transactions of Zhang and Wang families must be taken out.

They knew that if Chang Ping's position was empty, the Zhang and Wang family would definitely be prepared for the transaction. If Zhang Xiaobao had not been busy with other things and was unwilling to follow the disasters of the Tang Dynasty all day long, the materials in the disaster area had already been allocated.

Many people speculated that Zhang Xiaobao did not take action this spring because he was afraid that he would lead the disaster relief. In the end, the people only remembered the Zhang and Wang families, but did not know that the court was very kind, so they remained indifferent. They thought it was not good to feel good.

There was no major disaster today when Henan Road arrived. Due to the bridge construction, this section of the Yellow River deliberately strengthened the river embankment and was not washed away.

There are countless vehicles coming and going on the river bank now, and the muddy roads are covered with ruts. Occasionally, people push and horses are so lively. When the wind blows, the flags keep ringing.

"Mom, please walk slowly. The road is slippery and the road is broken. It will be difficult to walk when it rains. You should build a three-foot-wide cement sidewalk. Wait until the child writes a letter at night and send it to the Beijing Works Department tomorrow to ask Shangshu Zhang to see if he can find someone to pay for the repair."

On the road, a five-year-old boy was helping a woman walk hard, and his calves were rubbed with mud on his calves, and he talked to the woman while walking.

The woman frowned and advised: "How can you manage the major matters of road construction? Even if you write a letter, you must send it to the eastern capital Luoyang Prefecture first."

"Shangshu Zhang is not in Luoyang, so I can't expect Luoyang officials to do their best. Why can't I take care of major issues? I took the Juren exam last year and should contribute to the Tang Dynasty. Otherwise, wouldn't it be a waste of money from merchants? The purpose of Chaoyang's action is not to cultivate waste materials."

The boy made excuses for himself so that his mother could agree.

Seeing that his son was stubborn, the woman sighed and said, "The result is that there are more and more Juren. If you can't get a good imperial examination, your Juren will not be worth the future."

"Study is not just to get into the spring exam, but to increase your knowledge, understand the truth, and to understand the righteousness. My child has studied chemistry in school, and the soap he made is also very useful? Judging from the inner courtyards of Zhang and Wang, who are still a servant, compared to learning, the child believes that he is not as good as himself.

Mom, why did you pass by the child again? There are so many vehicles coming and going, and the horses are so tired. Be careful to lose your temper and kick people. When you go to the other side, the child is sensitive and can avoid it even if you encounter a crazy horse."

The boy spoke and pulled his mother back.

The woman had no choice but to listen to her son. She actually went there on purpose. In case of danger, she could help her son block it.

"Mom, let's go up the grass. I heard from other students in the school that now our Henan Road is fighting, called a war without swords and arrows. The Fengzhi Logistics of the people wanted to find trouble. My Tang Dynasty merchants couldn't stand it and sent someone to deal with it.

Mom, look, the banner of beautiful groceries. Mom, don’t you see that they are just businessmen, but they are very capable. I heard that all the merchants who came here are among the top 100 top rankings of Monopoly. They are well-known in various places. If you take out any one, it can affect the fluctuations in the local price."

The boy saw a fleet of cars passing by and pointed to the flag and introduced it to his mother.

"I really have such great ability, but I'm not confused yet? I haven't seen any power in them. There are two in Luoyang, and my mother thinks they are still the same." The woman doesn't care much about such things on weekdays, and she knows little. She hears her son's words, and she doesn't believe it in her words.

The boy walked to the tree next to him, broke a willow branch, and pulled it in front of him. He was afraid that a grass snake would suddenly jump out and bite people, so he said to his mother with a smile:

"Mom, you don't know, it's not that they can't do it, but they dare not. The people on the top rankings are powerful, but there is another one that is even more powerful, beyond the rankings. Zhang Xiaobao, the son of Zhang Shangshu of the Ministry of Works, is close to his child. The merchants on the rankings dare to impact the local economy, and Zhang Xiaobao will immediately make him lose all his money, but unfortunately he never saw him."

"Xiaobao? Xiaobao's mother knows that she has seen it, and her daughter-in-law Juanjuan, who has not passed through the door, is so beautiful and has big eyes that can speak. She looks like a husband, with a gentle nature, virtuous and generous, so happy." The woman finally knew about it.

"Ah? Mom, have you seen it? What does it look like?" The boy became interested.

"It's not as good as my son, but it's worse than that. My son is the best in the Tang Dynasty. Even if he doesn't get a Jinshi exam in the future, he will find a wife like Juanjuan, and his mother will be content." In the eyes of the woman, she seems to be the best son.

The boy nodded helplessly, "The child also thinks that his mother is the best mother in the world, but your requirements for his daughter-in-law are really... It really makes the child embarrassed, and the child doesn't think she is gentle and happy."

"Why aren't you gentle and virtuous? Everyone laughs, they are steady, and my mother likes it." The woman wanted to set the standards of her daughter-in-law.

The young man shivered, "Mom, she was also steadily when she rode outside the horse. She killed people so hard that the corpses were piled up like mountains. When blood flowed into a river, she also blinked her cute big eyes and laughed. People said, "I would rather hear the King of Hell cry than see the demons laughing. Even if a child could find such a person, he would not dare to marry him. He could scare him to death if he had nightmares at night. Only those who laughed like Zhang Xiaobao and talked about destroying people's country were able to calm him down."

Ah, mom, the child suddenly remembered an important thing. Our family should not eat garlic recently. My Tang Dynasty merchant and Fengzhi Logistics fought on garlic. While raising the price, they were worried that ordinary people would not have a good time. We have to help them to rest assured."

"Mom knows that my family has been eating onions recently. I dare to compete with me in the Tang Dynasty to let him know that it is amazing." The woman deliberately straightened her body and said disdainfully, showing the pride that the Tang people should have.

Not only the women think this way, but other people who understand the situation also support me. Isn’t it just that I don’t eat garlic for two months, and now my life is better, so I eat the same thing.

As a result, the merchants involved in the sniping found that things became clear and easier to operate. The price of garlic was adjusted up and down with the movement of Fengzhi Logistics, so that Fengqiao Er could not take any advantage.

Feng Qiaoer couldn't sleep well for several days, his eyes turned red and his skin wrinkled. He was as haggard as the dogtail grass hit by the rain, but not as tough as the dogtail grass.

The purchase of 50,000 jin of garlic at a high price only affected the price of garlic in some areas, and did not cause a large-scale price increase. If you want to sell garlic, you can't sell it. The people in Henan Road all tacitly stopped eating garlic. Even Zhang Xiaobao did not expect that he wanted to sell it far away, and transportation was another problem.

The piles of garlic that is piled up like a mountain cannot be stored and stored. It is damp, moldy, deflated, or even the piled at the bottom and rots directly. It will lose a lot every day.

"Hahahaha..." A flash of lightning flashed across the sky. Fengqiaoji, who was standing at the window, suddenly burst into laughter outside, scaring Yamamoto and Yamaji, thinking that Fengqiaoji was crazy and wanted to take some measures. Fengqiaoji stopped laughing.

"Okay, when I went to the Tang Dynasty, I actually caused dozens of top ranking people from the Tang Dynasty to attack me at the same time. Even though I lost You Rong, who can? Who in the world can attract so many people to deal with them at the same time like me? Even if I lose, they will become my reputation forever."

Yamamoto and Yamaji nodded slightly. Indeed, there have never been dozens of people on top rankings in the Tang Dynasty who attacked one of them.

Yamamoto planned to echo a few words, but when he thought about it carefully, it was not that true. Even if dozens of merchants did not unite, he would just take out one person. With the property at home, the money Feng Qiaojun had was only a fraction of the other person's family. The reason for this was to reflect the unity of merchants in the Tang Dynasty, which felt like he was for Zhang Xiaobao to see.

After hesitating for a moment, Yamamoto resisted the idea that it would be better not to cause trouble for Fengqiaojun.

Feng Qiaoer's face turned red and excited, and then continued, "I have a way. I will collect onions and ginger. I still have a lot of money in my hands. I don't believe that the people of the Tang Dynasty don't eat anything, so I can't keep them busy."

"Your Majesty Fengqiao, you can't do it, what can the Tang Dynasty be like? You can collect it yourself. I guess at the beginning, wherever we can receive onions and ginger, the prices of both will immediately increase, several times, or even dozens of times, increasing our acquisition costs."

Yamamoto felt that Fengqiaojun was really crazy. The sulfur and silver he brought when he came were worth one million guan. Now he withdraws it immediately, and the remaining one is less than 400,000 guan. Then he collects onions and ginger. In the end, he may not have any money left. He came here to make money, not to be angry.

Feng Qiaoer shook his head, "The price increases, then the people will not eat it anymore? I want to see what else Zhang Xiaobao can do to discredit his credibility and break his myth."

"Yamamoto, Fengqiao, Yamasaki, and all supermarkets on Henan Road have issued notices." When Fengqiao Er made up his mind, a man came into the outside and shouted loudly to the three of them.

"Why is the supermarket? What is the notice?" Feng Qiaoer couldn't even say anything, and a domestic phrase popped up, which means something.

"It's the matter of onion and ginger. The supermarket notice says that starting tomorrow, all supermarkets in Henan Road will supply onion and ginger at a limited price. Ten days later, garlic will be available at a fair price. People from Henan Road can buy it with their own household registration, saying that it is to welcome spring plowing and reward guests."

The ***er who came in said that he meant that the price of garlic would drop in five days, but he didn't know that Feng Qiaoer was just going to make onion and ginger.

After hearing this, Yamamoto said to Yamaji in a low voice: "Is it over? The supermarket is the Zhang family. There are their chain supermarkets around it. There are many merchants working with them. Before Feng Qiaojun takes action, Zhang Xiaobao blocked the road. The time card is really accurate, but I wonder, where does the garlic come from ten days later? I will transfer it from another place? I would rather lose money than sell it?"

"I guess it's not like, how could Zhang Xiaobao do the same with other Tang Dynasty merchants? That's not Zhang Xiaobao. Look, there are so many things. Do you still remember Zhang Xiaobao's trick?"

"Remember, you must have a series of plans. You should have stopped early. The batch of garlic that came to Huainan Road that hit our deposit came. Stop immediately. Maybe the loss will be small. Feng Qiaojun doesn't believe that evil, hey~!"

Yamamoto didn't dare to continue thinking, and there was a psychological shadow. He waved his hand and asked the ***er who came to report to leave. He turned around and looked at the local Fengqiaoji who was stupid and sighed.

Fengqiao Er passed a quarter of an hour before recovering from the blow. "What should I do? What should I do?"

"Fengqiaojun, go to Datang Money House for the remaining money, and take back the silver. After deducting the interest given to the money house, there should be 350,000 pounds of silver. Sell the garlic accumulated in your hand quickly to make a comeback."

When Yamamoto came up with the idea, he was crying without tears. In less than two months, there were only 400,000 yuan left for one million yuan of goods, and there were also sulfur that had not been mortgaged. In two months, 500,000 yuan, what kind of transaction can be used to pay for this?

Next, there is also the storage fee for goods. Since it is not from the Tang Dynasty, other countries need to specify the storage location and purpose before it is sold to the Tang Dynasty. Now it has been exposed and a tariff needs to be added. Because when I came in, I walked with the tributes from the *** tributes, and the offerings have not been delivered to the capital, so the purpose of other things is unknown.

I think Zhang Xiaobao will solve this tribute loophole, hoping that there will be no extra punishment.

Fengqiao Er could not think of any other way, so he nodded and agreed, "Okay, Yamamoto, Yamaji, help me."

The three of them took the loan contract signed with the Datang Money House and the remaining banknotes and went out to the Datang Money House in the center of Luoyang.

As soon as he arrived at the place, he walked up without waiting to speak, and said to the three of them with a smile: "But Fengqiao, Yamamoto, Yamaji, Yamaji?"

"Are you?" Yamamoto said in confusion.

"I am the deacon of the inner courtyard of Zhangjiazhuangzi, Sanshui County. Xu Si, this person should be Yamamoto. When I received the news, my young master said that Fengzhi logistics will not be lost at once. Because Yamamoto Junshan Temple, *** is a great country, and the Tang Dynasty is also a great country. The people of the Tang Dynasty are kind and wise, and the people of the *** are kind and wise.

Yamamoto and Yamasaki Jun suffered a loss. The young master believed that the two knew their mistakes and would persuade Fengqiao to come and pay the loan. He also said that Yamamoto was loyal and talked a lot, and Yamasaki Jun was always steady. Therefore, Fengqiao came for a short time and could not respond. The first person who made a sound must be Yamamoto, who didn't know if it was right?"

This person called himself Xu Si, first said a few diplomatic rhetoric, then named Yamamoto's identity and informed him of the reason.

In an instant, the clothes behind Yamamoto and the other two were wet with sweat. Fengqiao II was the most intense. Not only did he sweat a lot, but his face also turned pale.

He finally saw Zhang Xiaobao's power. He knew that Zhang Xiaobao was staying in his hometown in Sanshui County. It was so far away that the telegram came over, not only blocking his other ideas, but also allowing the inner courtyard to wait in the money house. At the beginning of the meeting, he knew who would speak first.

One side only knows that Zhang Xiaobao is very capable in economics, but Zhang Xiaobao has already analyzed the personalities of his three people. Is he really flawless?

Yamamoto was quite accustomed to it, and admitted, "Yes, I am Yamamoto, I don't know when Xu Jun was waiting?"

"If you say help you, you will definitely think I am hypocritical. Let me tell the truth. The young master is going to teach you a lesson that you know that you are selling garlic at a high price and still buy garlic at a high price and ask you to ship it. I want to take over your Fengzhi Logistics and bid 10,000 yuan.

It is considered an exchange. The conditions for exchange are not pursued. You are not responsible for the actual goods sold in the name of tribute. However, you must make up the tax that should be supplemented. Silver is 100% levied and sulfur is exempted. Because I, the Tang Dynasty, need sulfur. The young master said, for the last chance, do you agree or not?"

Xu Si didn't say politely, and told Yamamoto the three young masters very bluntly what they meant.

"Agree." Yamamoto and Yamaji spoke at the same time, as if they didn't think about it, which was so satisfying.

Feng Qiaoer was still thinking about what Xu Si said in his words and wanted to estimate the gains and losses. Seeing that the two of them had agreed, they were very puzzled. Could it be that the two of them had analyzed the gains and losses?

"Fengqiaojun, since Zhang Xiaobao sent someone to say that, he must not deliberately mocked and bullied us. He disdained to do that. The conditions he put forward must be the best for us at the moment. The consequences of not agreeing are unimaginable."

Yamamoto answered Fukihashiji's doubts, and why he and Yamaji agreed happily was because of this.

Fengqiao Er immediately lost the arrogance of wanting to be on par with Zhang Xiaobao at the beginning. He found that he was too different and was not at the same level at all. No wonder Zhang Xiaobao made a decision every time. The Tang Dynasty merchants, even those who are famous on the top rankings, must take the initiative to express their opinions. In terms of economy, they are god-like existences.

As mentioned in Buddhism, his ancestors pointed to the sky with one hand and the earth with the other hand. In the sky, I am the only one who is the only one who is in the world.

"I don't know... I don't know how Zhang Xiaobao will teach them a lesson?" Feng Qiaoer's voice was trembling when he spoke. He wanted to know what Zhang Xiaobao would do when he greeted Feng Logistics, but he really couldn't think of it.

"If Feng Qiaojun is not in a hurry to return to China, we will know later that we will sign the contract." Xu Si said with a smile.

Fengqiao Er nodded, "Okay, okay, there is another thing. Where did the garlic come from ten days after the Henan Road Supermarket?"

"Sila comes from Silla. After the young master knows what you are doing, he immediately contacts people on the border of Silla to exchange for a large amount of Silla garlic with an important technical formula. During this period, he has been transporting to Henan Road as fast as possible. After eight days, he can fully distribute the goods and put them on the shelves for one day, and can buy them on the tenth day."

Xu Si did not hide it, but he didn't say anything about the technical formula, which made Yamamoto and the other two feel itchy.

Feng Qiaoer wanted to wait for the future to explore, so he paid back the money first. After estimating, the Tang Dynasty was willing to pay more money for sulfur and paid 100% tariff on silver, he almost didn't have any money left. This was Zhang Xiaobao's failure to pursue other aspects, which was indeed ruthless.

"Xu Jun, will Mr. Zhang, the other businessmen who came here, not compensate?" Feng Qiaoer asked another thing, and he didn't believe Zhang Xiaobao ignored it.

"Of course not, otherwise who will help in the future?" Xu Si said with a mysterious smile.
