It is said that one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, who is in charge of the Ming Dynasty?

As a head of the family, will he tolerate someone "threatening" his position?

Daydream.

When they do business, they don’t want to threaten their competitors to appear, let alone the imperial court and the royal family behind the imperial court.

Mr. Sun and others admire Qian Laifu very much. No wonder they were able to become the "big merchants in the world". They were prosperous in everything they did and did not attract the eyes of the court. That was because they knew where the bottom line of the court was, and no matter how much money they made, they would not touch them.

A group of businessmen led by Qian Laifu found an "excusation" and said that they would not "borrow money" to the aristocratic families, but they could help "stock up salt".

In fact, they greeted the court, "stocked salt" here, and secretly dropped the bags and returned them to the official salt shop, asking them to continue to "sell".

Then I don’t want the money for buying salt, so I will treat it as “donated” to the court.

When Li Wenchong found out, he was a little amused and crying.

Qian Laifu was his person, so it was normal for him to go to the court.

But unexpectedly, he had already attracted so many people and set up a "Tianxia Chamber of Commerce" without realizing it.

No one who joins the "Tianxia Chamber of Commerce" does not listen to him.

I dare not say that all the businessmen in the world have joined the "Tianxia Chamber of Commerce", but Gu Qingling is holding the "Jinling Investment Club" in his hand, and Qian Laifu is holding the "Tianxia Chamber of Commerce" in his hand, which is almost equivalent to two-thirds of the richest businessmen group in the world except for the aristocratic families.

Two-thirds of the wealthy businessmen were held in the hands of the court, so what tricks could the remaining one-third play?

Even if those aristocratic families have a strong foundation, they will have various assets and real estate, such as "cash flow" and so on, they seem to be a little inadequately prepared.

Prince Cheng saved so much snow salt, and only one-fifth of it left, he had already emptied the money in the wallets of several aristocratic families. If they wanted to buy it, they either sold their real estate and other assets, or looked for other merchants to cooperate, borrow money or mobilized them to "stock up on salt" with themselves.

Except for the salt that the aristocratic families really stocked up, the salt bought by other families returned to the court. In addition, the people also stocked up a few kilograms of salt at home. Even if there is no salt circulation on the market in a short period of time, it will not have much impact on the daily life of the people, so...

The one that was most affected became a family.

They spent all the money they had in their hands to stock up on salt, but the salt shop had no money to come in, and the living water turned into stagnant water, and the problem was caused.

There are so many people in a family, not to mention anything else, just three meals a day requires a lot of silver, not to mention other daily expenses.

So, not long after, Mrs. Qi came to see Mrs. Qi and cried to the point of being poor.

"Old lady, there is no money in the family's account."

"How come you have no money?" Mrs. Qi looked surprised.

"I really have no money. Mrs. Ruo doesn't believe it. My daughter-in-law will tell you..." Mrs. Qi directly carried the account book and asked her to tell her.

It turned out that the Qi family had tens of thousands of taels of silver in their official account, but because the Qi family wanted to stock up on salt, most of them were taken away in addition to leaving a small amount of silver expenses.

There seems to be no problem in a short period of time, but a month has passed, and all the major shops in Qijia have experienced economic problems. The money cannot be obtained, but the account "spending money is like flowing water". This is a shortage.

Mrs. Qi was snatching the account book and couldn't believe it at all: "How is it possible?! In addition to salt shops, there are other shops in the Qi family. Are those shops without money?"

"The Qi family has other shops, but those shops also have to be banned and charge various expenses... Anyway, the shops are all managed by the man, and the daughter-in-law doesn't know what's going on. As soon as the money came in, it was transferred out in a few days. The daughter-in-law has only received hundreds of taels of silver. But what can hundreds of taels of silver do? There are hundreds of people in the Qi family, and a meal is not enough." Mrs. Qi said obscurely that she had turned over her dowry.

But not. She only has a lot of dowry. There are so many people in the Qi family, and the man spends money very well, so she can't afford it.

As he was talking, Mrs. Qi Er ran in crying and complained to Mrs. Qi, saying that Mrs. Qi had deducted her daily expenses.

"It just so happened that my sister-in-law is here, so I wanted to ask, what does my sister-in-law mean? I stew the bird's nest well on weekdays, so why has it become an old product for pigs today?"

"Didn't I say that my family has been in a tight situation recently, so I have to save some money."

As soon as Mrs. Qi finished speaking, Mrs. Qi called out: "I'm afraid you've embezzled it?" Do you think I don't know. The maid in your yard had even flipped through your warehouse a few days ago."

"I..." Mrs. Qi was so angry that she gritted her teeth. She asked the maid to go through the warehouse. It was to take stock of the money and use her dowry to fill in the daily expenses of the Qi family.

Mrs. Qi Er believed that she was also the daughter of a wealthy family before she became a monk. If Mrs. Qi had not married the eldest son, how could she have suppressed her everywhere?

She was indignant and insisted that Mrs. Qi give her an explanation.

It has not been resolved yet. The ladies, aunts, young masters and ladies from other rooms have also appeared one after another, indicating that their daily expenses have been problematic recently.

Mrs. Qi felt wronged, but she didn't want to deduct it. It was obvious that all the money in the account was paid away by the man. She had no money to give everyone food and didn't even use the dowry enough. What could she do?

It was noisy and noisy, and Mrs. Qi couldn't help but make a fuss in front of Mr. Qi.

Mr. Qi had a bad temper and cried everyone directly, asking the men in each room to manage the women and children in each room, and drove the people away.

Mrs. Qi realized that it was not a second, so she asked Mr. Qi what was wrong and why all the money in the family was spent?

She knew about stocking up salt, but why was other shops affected in addition to the salt shop?!

Mr. Qi covered his chest and gritted his teeth with hatred: "What else can happen? It's not done by the imperial court."

Originally, he thought that although their aristocratic family had a lot of resources in their hands, even if the salt shop was closed, it would have no effect on their daily lives. But who knew that after they spent so much money in, the salt shop in the Guanyan Shop was not too small. The people became more and more at ease to buy, and the rumors they released were useless at all. The common people were holding three or two kilograms of salt in their hands, and they saw that the salt shop was full of salt, so they couldn't make a fuss.

They had no choice but to continue spending money to buy salt.

I spent more and more money. When the money in the account was used up, I started to mortgage other stores to borrow money to stock up on salt, or borrow money from other families, and exchange resources for it...

Various means.

They also joined forces with many families and merchants of all sizes to stock up on salt, and almost all over the world, but the official salt shop is like a bottomless pit, with a steady stream of salt coming out.

The ninety-nine steps ahead have left, so Mr. Qi cannot stop, and those aristocratic families cannot stop.

They had no choice, the cost of investing was increasing, and the battle to hoard salt was getting deeper and deeper.

In the end, it became what it is today.

Now he can't move forward or retreat.

"flutter……"

Mr. Qi couldn't hold back his blood and vomited it out directly.

"master?!"

Mrs. Qi screamed in fear.
