Chapter 811: The Crushing Crush(1/2)
"Haha. Please be calm."
Facing the faces of each of them, which were slightly red and twisted, Xu Changqing waved his hand lightly.
Even though the salt merchants were anxious, they really did not dare to directly provoke Xu Changqing's power. Even if they had just oppressed Xu Changqing, they had carefully thought about his words, for fear that Xu Changqing would be caught in this regard.
Seeing Xu Changqing's words shocked the scene, Zheng Chagu also relaxed a little, and suddenly realized that her location was the safest location in the world.
Because no matter what danger occurs, the man around her will bear it for her...
"Everyone, I understand everyone's mood. But things have happened, we still have to solve them. Can such noisy solve the problem? No! So, we still have to sit down and talk slowly."
Xu Changqing played with the wine glass in his hand, and looked at the salt merchants one by one with seemingly careless eyes.
Although these salt merchants are all big shots in their respective areas, in terms of momentum, how could Xu Changqing climb out of the dead and step on countless real Manchu corpses and take over? He didn't dare to look at Xu Changqing and hung his head one after another.
"What everyone said makes sense, but when wars are in trouble, who are you, um, who will pay for someone or pay for the Qing Dynasty? Come on, as long as someone makes such a move, my family will not only not take any money at his salt farm, but will also subsidize the money and let them resume work immediately!"
"this……"
The salt merchants were speechless. Who would have thought that Xu Changqing would use this to criticize them...
Someone came up to take over Xu Changqing's words, but soon stopped this idea and didn't dare to think about it anymore.
Who would be stupid when they reach their level?
This must be Xu Changqing's bait. If you are not careful, you will shoot the first bird.
With Xu Changqing's current power, who can bear the price?
Seeing the scene gradually entering the track she controlled, Xu Changqing's mouth curled up slightly, "Your salt fields were indeed your private property before the Qing army entered the country, but now they are not the same! As the owners of the salt fields, you did not protect the salt fields well. Instead, they made the countless poor people who relied on the salt fields become slaves of the Qing army. How should you calculate this account?"
"this……"
The salt merchants were a little stunned. Xu Changqing was obviously biting back, but they could not refute it for a moment.
Because what Xu Changqing said is indeed the truth...
In the crowd, Wang Fuchun couldn't help but nodded repeatedly. If it weren't for the occasion, he would have quickly flattered him.
What he was most worried about before was that Xu Changqing could not explain the "legal principles" of these salt fields, but he never thought that Xu Changqing was prepared long ago.
Fan Yongdou also nodded secretly.
It is not an exaggeration to say that Xu Changqing is a hero who has never been seen in a century!
If these salt merchants really want to fight Xu Changqing to the death, they may not only not get any good, but they may even have to throw their old capital in it. They are not of the same level as the same level.
Zheng Chagu also looked at Xu Changqing with great admiration and joy.
At this time, she also discovered that Xu Changqing was so handsome that no word could be described.
It is almost impossible for this guy to take advantage of him.
But she...
It’s a pity that Zheng Chagu’s little head was a little dizzy for a moment. What did she do during this period?
I'm afraid even her father, the elder brother, would never be able to do it...
"Everyone, you must be aware of the general, know how to advance and retreat, and even more so you must judge the situation! Now many salt fields have been severely damaged and are indecent. In many places, no one will take over the corpse! Come and tell me now, that is your salt fields? Well, your salt fields, at this time, no one will harm the aftermath.
?”
“…”
quiet.
Deadly quiet.
The salt merchants didn't even dare to breathe anymore.
Xu Changqing was an open conspiracy, but they did not do it well for various reasons, so they can only listen now.
With their scheming and experience, even if they think with their toes, they can understand that once someone wants to go to Xu Changqing at this time—
Then, it will surely become the terrible chicken that kills chickens to warn monkeys...
Xu Changqing looked at them as if they were losing their parents, and his mind became more and more relaxed.
In fact, this is a dimensionality reduction strike, using the energy of the Ming Dynasty and the court to directly crush these fat salt merchants.
Although these people are smart in business and understand some politics, more people are still short-sighted and have a bad position.
I used to be desperate to be positive, but they were really positive, they were not the only ones!
Of course, they are not the ones they are best at. They are their specialty in making conspiracies and tricks in private, and Xu Changqing has to be careful.
"Everyone, the state is difficult."
As he spoke, Xu Changqing changed his mind and began to become softer, "At this time of Ming Dynasty, the country and the country were in decline, the people were displaced, and everything was in trouble. When I communicated with the three cabinet masters including Shibutang this morning, I also reached a certain agreement with the cabinet. All salt fields in Lianghuai will be included in the inner treasury and the court in the near future!"
"What?"
"this……"
"Crash!"
It was almost like a nuclear weapon exploded in public, and everyone could no longer control their emotions.
"Haicang Hou, you, what's the difference between you and Ming robbery? That's the hard work and sweat of more than ten generations of our Wang family, two hundred years of hard work..."
"Marty, you are too bullying. Looking at the past few thousand years, there has never been such a sensational thing."
"Tyranny, politics, this is tyranny..."
All the salt merchants said everything at the moment, and the accumulated anger could no longer be held back and all erupted.
"Swish swish swish swish!"
"Everyone has it, ready to shoot!"
However, the tyranny had just lasted for a moment, and suddenly there was a sound of fierce footsteps around him, and then there was a sound of steel knife being sheathed with the countdown.
The salt merchants were looking around in public, and their souls were scared away for a moment. They dared not speak more, and there was no movement in an instant.
I saw countless bright red figures that had firmly surrounded them.
At least a few hundred black muzzles were aimed at them.
How can I play this?
People are really tyrannical. What can you do?
Do you want to reason with these soldiers of the model army?
Xu Changqing winked at Zhu Guobi at this time.
"Ahem..."
Zhu Guobi immediately cleared his throat and came forward with a smile, "Everyone, please be careful. What are you doing? Are you trying to force the marquis to the marquis? The marquis has been in war for nearly ten years, and even those real Manchu soldiers are no match for him. Are you even more fierce than those real Manchu soldiers?"
“…”
Everyone was silent.
They finally realized that things were no longer something they could decide.
Even the court was supported by Xu Changqing, and Xu Changqing gave these salt fields to the emperor and the court. Can they still fight against the entire general trend?
"hehe."
Zhu Guobi walked up slowly, patted the shoulders, and continued, "Everyone, don't be impatient. Who is our Marquis of Haicheng? How could everyone not survive? Although the salt farm was taken over to the Tian family and the imperial court, can the Tian family and the imperial court be managed directly? It's not up to the big one.
Home. We have now started to count and plan many salt farms. I think more accurate news will come tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. At that time, these salt farms will be auctioned openly, fairly and justly under the leadership of the Pavilion Master. Whether it is the Shandong Chamber of Commerce, the two Huai salt merchants, or the foreign wealthy merchants like our shopkeeper Fan, they are qualified to participate."
"this……"
The stadium was infuriating again, and countless people looked at each other, as if they fell directly into an ice hole.
Only then did they understand how ruthless and sophisticated Xu Changqing's plan was...
Now, the emperor, the court, the model army, including these sons from southern Shandong, and Fan Yongdou and his old westerners have already stood in a group.
If their "land tigers" are not polite, they will be enemies of the whole world...
"Haha. Don't panic. This is probably the case, but we can continue to discuss some things."
As he said that, Zhu Guobi hurriedly asked Xu Changqing respectfully: "Mr. Marquis, please tell me."
Successfully completed his supporting role.
Xu Changqing sighed and said, "To be honest, Changqing is also worried about the loss of such a heavy loss to you. But the same thing is still the case, and escaping is not a way to go, we have to face it! However, everyone is famous in the Ming Dynasty, and many of them have fame and fortune, so the preferential treatment they should have must not be missed. In this way, I can make the decision for everyone here. The salt merchants in Lianghuai can remove 50% of the salt farm. Do you have any objections?"
"this……"
The yard was filled with frying again, and countless salt merchants almost suddenly came to heaven from hell, but their hair stood up and were experiencing Xu Changqing's arrangement quickly.
Zhu Guobi smiled and stepped forward to comfort him, continuing to state his interests to them.
Soon, everyone began to accept reality. No matter how unhappy they felt, no one dared to take the lead in causing trouble.
The matter is already very clear. Xu Changqing gave them 50% of the share, which is already a huge face.
Even if you have to spend more money or even spend a lot of money to buy their own salt farm, it is better than nothing, right?
To be continued...
