Now some people have seen that if this continues, it may be impossible for them to start weaving or purchase large quantities of silk next year.

Because not only did the weaving workers in the workshop flow to Tongzhou, but the Huaiyang Business Group also established an extremely reliable reputation through the acquisition of silkworm cocoons.

When the silk from those small manufacturing workshops is on the market, they will never beg the big silk merchants to buy their own fabrics.

Instead, they will go directly to the Huaiyang merchants who trade fairly and sell the silk they woven to them! There are no cocoons, no raw silk, no workers, and no one sells them finished silk. How can they resume weaving and squeeze into this market?

...So now, the big silk merchants suddenly realized.

It turned out that the Shen Lang in Tongzhou didn't just want to pick the fruits from their trees, but also completely dug up their roots! Under such circumstances, all the monopoly silk merchants in the Song Dynasty gritted their teeth at Shen Mo, hoping to crush him to ashes to relieve their hatred.

But they had no choice but to retaliate or counter the Shen Langjun.

This feeling of being beaten and unable to fight back, seeing that someone was digging the foundation of the wealth but was unable to turn the world back, really made them almost frustrated to death!... Although the silk trade tax on the tax tariff has not been collected, Shen Mo is not in a hurry at all.

Because after next year's spring silkworm season, there will naturally be small and medium-sized workshops that get Zhang Jiutai's loan to weave a lot of silk.

By then, all rivers in the Song Dynasty would become beautiful rivers filled with silk, and the silk trade tax would naturally return to normal.

As of next autumn, the silk trade tax collected must be more than three times the harsh taxes such as the "body tax" in the past, which Shen Mo was very confident about.

After that, Shen Mo was in charge of Lin'an, allowing his factory, logistics, and commercial consortium to fully cooperate with the healthy operation of the silk industry.

While also observing carefully, preventing the enemy from taking new actions.

Because as of now, the big tea merchants all over the world, kiln owners who monopolized the ceramic industry, silk merchants, and important officials of the court who once made a lot of profits have almost all hated Shen Mo because of this incident.

Now that he has established so many enemies, Shen Mo must be wary of any sinister tricks they use.

Nearly a month later, it was almost the late autumn silkworm season, but Shen Mo still did not notice any movements on the enemy. Even he felt a little strange!... Not long after, Shen Mo received the news that Hu Shang Apu also completed the activity of rectifying the ceramic industry in Pingjiang Prefecture and returned to Lin'an.

Anyway, nothing happened that day, so Shen Mo simply didn't wait for the Hu Shang disciple to come to see him.

Instead, he pinched Apu and left the boat ashore and went straight to the Crystal Palace Building.

I was about to wait until this Hu Shang disciple came back and listen to his report immediately.

But what Shen Mo did not expect was that he had expected Apu to come to him with a smile, but it did not appear at all.

Although Apu had reported in detail in the letter he wrote before this.

He said that when the ceramic industry was rectifying monopoly behavior, it was going very smoothly because of Shen Mo's power and previous experience in tea shops.

Now Apu has basically completed the free market-oriented operation of the ceramic industry.

In addition, Apu not only purchased and sold it on its own during the sales process, but also broke the monopoly of big merchants.

He also spent a huge amount of money to gather experienced handicrafts in the Pingjiang area and built his own porcelain kilns, preparing to use more advanced firing techniques to compete with the big kiln owners for the market.

But when Shen Mo saw Apu, he never expected it.

As soon as he saw him, he burst into tears! Now they are on the ninth floor of the Crystal Palace Building, at Apu's home.

When Shen Mo saw this scene, he knew something was different, so he asked all the servants to retreat, put Apu on the sofa and sat down, and asked him the reason for his sadness.

As a result, it took until Apu said a few words before Shen Mo nodded secretly.

...It turned out that although Apu moved all his family to the Song Dynasty, he also determined to be a family in the Song Dynasty.

However, the dozens of fleets in his hand still traveled between the Song Dynasty and the West, constantly earning wealth for Apu in international trade.

On the way back this time, he met a fleet of his own men who drove back from his hometown as soon as he went out to sea.

Often such fleets will bring Apu food and fruits and vegetables from his hometown, and also news from his hometown.

But this time the news Apu received made him extremely sad and completely disappointed! According to Apu's account of Shen Mo, it turned out that in his hometown, the once prosperous Zoroastrianism was oppressed and destroyed more and more seriously.

Now there has been a craze in which you will kill all your family if you don’t change your religion.

Under such circumstances, Apu's merchant ships failed to even land and almost died at the hands of the great pagans.

After that, the sailor on the merchant ship, Apu, hurriedly drove out to sea to avoid the limelight, and then quietly slipped back in the dark.

They secretly got ashore and after taking makeup in Apu's hometown, they found out that the neighbors, distant relatives, and old friends of the big bearded Hu Shang were all killed by the believers! At that time, Apu realized that his hometown had disappeared forever.

Because the land is still there and the mountains and rivers are still there, but he has no one he knows! So in fact, his hometown will never exist again.

That's why Apu was so sad when he saw Shen Mo.

When he cried bitterly and told about this, Shen Mo was also a little depressed by him.

He was as sympathetic as this disciple, but he was even more miserable.

Because Shen Mo's family's old friend was still at the end of the long river of time, eight hundred years later! At this time, Shen Mo saw that the expression on Apu's face became more and more ferocious, so he asked him: "A person cannot be resurrected. Since this incident has been done, what else can you do?"

"That won't work!"

At this time, Apu gritted his teeth and said, "Will it be the real man who does not take revenge if he has revenge?"

"When talking about this, Apu had an idea in his mind when he was on the boat..." At this point, Apu took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and handed it to Shen Mo. Shen Mo looked down at the contents on the paper, and then threw him back into Apu's arms.
