Chapter 714

: Turn the world

"They let you go, and you're gone."

Chen Yuan's voice sounded at the mouth of Mén. Ma Chang was stunned at first, then suddenly became happy on his face, and shook Chen Shizhong's hand, and ran towards Chen Yuan: "Mr. Prince Consort, you are back."

Chen Shizhong also seemed to have suddenly found the backbone and called out: "Brother."

Chen Yuan's face was very ugly. He walked in without a sound and sat down on the chair: "Close the mén, I'll ask you, who did this?"

Ma Chang's son closed the room with his backhand. Ma Chang and Chen Shizhong looked at each other and finally whispered: "Yes, we discussed it."

"Haha, okay, it's great. We're discussing how to do it? Do you have the ability to continue playing?" Chen Yuan pointed outside: "Have you ever played with someone? What's the point of picking things out?"

Chen Shizhong said: "Brother, I know I'm wrong, but things have already happened. That guy Xia Shu is clearly going to kill us now. Do you think?"

Chen Yuan also knew that things were already like this. When he entered the Song Dynasty, he felt that the situation was not right, so this time he did not send a fast horse to deliver a letter, but came back directly on the fast horse from the post station. For two days and two nights, Chen Yuan could not sleep together, but he was finally one step slower.

It's like a person who heard that his family was fighting with outsiders and rushed over to dissuade him. But when he went there, he found that the fight had started. So what else could he dissuade him? Just search the guy directly.

He picked up the teapot and took a sip. Chen Yuan looked at the three people in the room: "Don't tell anyone about my return, do you know?"

Three people were one head, and Ma Chang's whole face looked like bitter gourd: "Mr. Prince Concubine, please think of a solution. I really can't live anymore."

Chen Yuan sneered at the corner of his mouth: "Didn't I say that, they asked you to leave, and you'll leave. When you go back immediately, you'll close all the workshops. The guy disbands. If someone asks you why, you'll say that Sima Guang asked you to get out of Bianjing."

Ma Chang was stunned and couldn't speak for a long time. The market here was built by him for decades. Now he can't bear to leave when he says he can't bear to leave.

Chen Yuan looked at him: "Don't worry, you will be back soon. By the way, Shizhong, I'll rest here at your evening. I'll open a list for you, and you call me one by one."

Chen Shizhong is more confident now: "Yes, don't worry, brother."

After drinking two sips of tea, Chen Yuan stood up and hammered his butt with his hands: "Okay, Mr. Ma, you tell me about the situation in Bianjing now. I just heard it a little and didn't know much about it."

Ma Chang nodded and told everything about what happened in Bianjing in the end that Renzong wanted to recognize Zhao Shi as his grandson.

The next day, another shocking news came from Bianjing. Ma Chang, who had been doing business in Bianjing for many years, suddenly left Bianjing. The reason was very simple. Sima Guang of the current dynasty forced him away.

Sima Guang didn't care much about this news, because he did it, and once he did it, he dared to admit it. Isn't it just a wine seller? In his opinion, it's not a big deal.

Ma Chang is the third person in the Business Association after Chen Shimei and Chen Shizhong. This person was dismissed by himself, which means that the literati and official group is very powerful. In a few words, the important figures of the Business Association were solved.

However, some of the things that happened afterwards really surprised Sima Guang.

Ma Chang left, business stopped, but the hundreds of guys in his workshop had no place to live. If Sima Guang could ignore these things, then all the restaurants in Bianjing suddenly had no alcohol, and Sima Guang could not cover them immediately.

The literati likes romantic affairs, but wouldn’t it be a shame if you don’t have wine when you are romantic? I will understand how comfortable it is to hold a pot of old wine and have sex with Mei NV. But as soon as Ma Chang left, he could only drink tea when he was romantic affairs. The literati were very uncomfortable with this.

There are also those coolies who have become accustomed to getting a few taels after a day of work, but now they are suddenly gone. When they find out that it was Sima Guang's good thing, these coolies immediately cursed and greeted Sima Guang's family directly in their way.

All day long, almost all the streets and alleys of Bianjing were looking for wine, and Sima Guang became a synonym for evil for a moment. Even all the people with the surname Sima felt that they could not raise their heads.

Xia Xuan was helpless in the face of this situation. He had already planned when launching an attack. In his opinion, to give the students some good skills. After all, everyone is a scholar, so you have to make a little sense of action. As for the warriors, they are now the emperor's subordinates. Besides, the warriors have indeed done some things in recent years, so it's okay to warn them.

But Xia Shun was not so polite to the business association. He sincerely wanted to kill Ji Shihou, so that Chen Shimei knew that the Song Dynasty was the world of scholars and officials, and it was no time for the merchants to speak.

After the fierce attack, Xia Shu suddenly realized that the current merchants were different from before. In the past, merchants were making small fuss, like Ma Chang. Before Chen Shimei came, he just served a few streets of water and wine, and occasionally made some big jiāo with Fanbang, just like the New Year.

But now it is different. Now 50% of the water and wine in Bianjing is provided by Ma Chang. Those vassal states have made every move with Ma Chang every month.

What they did was not business, but the market in the Song Dynasty. Each of them supported many people in the Song Dynasty, and even the daily lives of the literati and officials were closely related to these merchants.

When all the merchants were really defeated, the Song Dynasty was injured and the scholars were injured.

Xia Shu walked back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back. Renzong scolded Sima Guang in the court today and asked Sima Guang to make wine. He was quite angry in his tone. It would be fine if there was only Ma Chang, but Xia Shu had just received the news that the game was just the beginning and was far from the end.

Ma Chang was just the first one to leave. After Ma Chang left, the shopkeeper Xiao Zhang of the cloth shop also said that he was unable to withstand the troubles of the servants during this period. The seven workshops closed four of them and were ready to leave.

For a time, the price of fabrics in Bianjing rose rapidly. Residents were afraid that the fabrics would be out of stock like wine after Manager Zhang left. If the wine was broken, you could not drink them, but now the Chun Festival is over and the season is about to change. You can't wear a jacket to go out on the street when the weather is hot, right?

The snap-up of fabrics has also begun.

"Does it really have to go to those merchants to negotiate?" Xia Feng felt a little scary when he thought of this. He was the leader of the scholar-officials, scholar-officials, farmers, industry and commerce, and they were the highest-level figures. Xia Feng could not do it if they wanted them to lower their stature and negotiate with the merchants.

His hands subconsciously picked up the teacup, frowned after taking a sip, opened the teapot and saw that there were some broken tea leaves inside.

"Summer is precious and summer is precious"

The butler of the Xia Mansion hurriedly came in from outside: "Master, what's the matter?"

"Where is the tea? Why is it like this inside?"

Xia Gui dodged his eyes and said, "Master, you don't know. The tea in the mansion was sent by Manager Liu in the past. I don't know what happened this year. Several days have passed since the delivery of new tea, and Manager Liu has nowhere to be seen."

"Will you buy it on the street?"

"Master, there are very few tea leaves on the streets now, and several big tea merchants have not come this year."

Xia Xun understood something and threw the teacup to the ground hard, but had no choice: "You go back."

Chen Yuan has carefully tasted the taste of the new tea: "Well, it's good, this year's tea leaves are good."

Manager Liu smiled and said, "That's right, how dare I give the inferior tea to my husband and wife to drink? The villain also pointed at the husband and wife, and could take care of him in the future."

Chen Yuan put down the tea cup: "How about it? Let your tea stop for a few days and enter the market, will you lose a lot?"

"If it's not the case, that's just a little money. As long as your big task is done by your son-in-law, we don't have to pay attention to this little money."

"You can't say that. Brothers are the rules of our businessmen to settle accounts clearly. If you help me, I can't let you suffer. What's more, I've been making you feel wronged here these days, and I really feel sorry for you."

When Chen Yuan spoke, the eyes of those people were very hot, because now everyone knows that they can't suffer any losses when doing business with the prince-consort.

Sure enough, Chen Yuan gave them a reward of beyond imagination: "There is an island next to Qiongzhou called Ryukyu, and it is said that it is also suitable for producing tea."

Those merchants have never heard of this, but Chen Yuan knew that there were ten famous teas in Taiwan in the 21st century, and the output was extremely high. Let these merchants go to Taiwan. In Chen Yuan’s island chain plan, each island has its own unique products. These islands surround the Song Dynasty, which can replenish energy for the business of the Song Dynasty and absorb new and improved products with higher technical content faster.

Merchants have never heard of tea in Ryukyu, but from a geographical point of view, Ryukyu and the southeast coast of the Song Dynasty should be able to be planted.

Some time ago, these tea merchants had their share of land enclosed because they needed land. When the trade in the Song Dynasty opened up, the tea trade also flourished, and they needed more people to grow tea.

Now that Chen Yuan gave them a place, these people were naturally very happy.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you,"

The shopkeeper Liu was a little more mature. After thanking him, he immediately asked, "Mr. Prince Consort, do you think we will stay here until when? If this really doesn't go out for a long time, it may be bad for us."

Chen Yuan nodded: "What he said was that he wanted to leave was just to scare them. If he really left, we would lose a piece of money. And this matter should not be too big, as it would be bad for everyone. Shizhong, what did Xia Shu do in the past two days?"

Chen Shizhong stepped forward and said, "Brother, although that old guy pretended to be fine these two days, anyone with a discerning eye could see that he had no choice but to worry about it."

Chen Yuan smiled: "Wait for two more days and tell the merchants who have recently said they want to leave, and do a lot of power for me. Of course, don't really leave."
