Chapter 960: Market Volatility
[End of the God Station] Remind book friends to keep in mind: Website URL: www.xinwanben.com Remember in a second, never lose it!
All Hanlin were angry.
They couldn't accept that Wang Bushi was such a person.
He was full of these "filthy" words. Back then, when everyone laughed at The Wealth of Nations, he just stood aside and laughed.
Well now, does this guy want to take the opportunity to seek refuge because he sees that Fang Jifan is so powerful?
Shameless.
Anyone in the world can have no bones, but Hanlin Qingliu, how can there be no bones.
Think back to the beginning, when the emperor sent the Hanlins to study in Xishan, they still didn’t change their aspirations. This is why, it’s because, what the Ming Dynasty needs is the iron bones of the Hanlin Qingliu.
Even the Imperial Academy in the world can flatter Fang Jifan, but who is your king Bushi? Have you forgotten that scum in the world back then?
How can a person be so shameless, being humiliated and humiliated by others, not only is he not ashamed, but proud of it. In the world, there is no one who is more brazen than this.
"Wang Bushi, you... you are lucky to call yourself a disciple of a saint!"
Wang Bushi worshiped on the ground. He felt ashamed at first, but he was accused by thousands of people. He thought to himself, when Wang Bushi, the scum of the world, came out, the old man was so angry that he wanted to kill people. Who stopped the old man and said that it was a Children, you have said all the good things. When I was teased by others, who would stand up and say a few words for themselves.
But now... I was just saying a few words from the bottom of my heart, but you guys stood up.
Wang Bushi said: "The disciples of the sages should learn the way of economics. The disciples of the sages should not just talk about the sayings. What the sages pay attention to is to benefit the world and benefit the people of the world. They can only rely on the Four Books. What can the Five Classics do? These are my words from the bottom of my heart. Why can’t I say that now that the country lacks pig iron, I think the price of pig iron will plummet, can’t I say it?”
"you……"
The Hanlins were dumbfounded.
Someone sneered, hehe...it's full of nonsense, let's see what will happen to a person like you, when the time comes, don't cry.
"You are deviant."
But someone couldn't help but said.
Wang Bushi is going all out, he is already the scum of the world, what does it matter if he adds another deviant: "This is speaking out of justice!"
Hanlin, you look at me, I look at you, all sneer.
This is a talk.
The advantage of 筳talking is that here, Hanlin people can say whatever they want, even if they contradict the emperor and say something that should not be said, often the emperor will let them say it in order to show that he is open to the outside world.
So someone said: "Wang Bushi, I feel sorry for you, so I can persuade you with good words, but you don't change after repeated admonitions. Well, when the time comes, it's natural to see what happens to you!"
Wang Bushi said with a dull face: "Everyone sweeps the snow in front of the door, this is my business."
Well this is my business.
This person... is probably crazy...
Emperor Hongzhi seemed impatient about this. The Imperial Academy criticized each other just for this trivial matter?
What is really worrying is the lack of pig iron...
How can you talk, but in the end, it has risen to the point of deviant?
…………
new town...
Long and dusty, a convoy began to embark on the road to the new city.
Compared with the dirt road, the asphalt road of this new city, the envoys' heavy carriages and horses suddenly became lighter.
"Quick, quick!"
Someone shouted.
The one who rides the horse is a steward.
Although the Li family business is not one of the best, it can be regarded as having a strong background.
Just because the family has a big business, the Li family only saw the business opportunity and immediately realized that it was profitable.
Therefore, more than 80 vehicles and horses were collected and rushed to the Hexi Corridor.
This journey is certainly difficult, but the price of pig iron is rising day by day, as long as the action is quick, it will definitely be profitable.
There were more than 80 carts and horses, except for a few delays, almost each cart carried three thousand catties of pig iron.
The 300,000 catties of pig iron finally returned to the capital after more than three months.
The blood and tears along the way goes without saying.
Every car is covered with a black awning, but a convoy of this size is rare.
The person in charge of this trip back and forth this time is already returning home.
But... even if they arrive at the place, they have to quickly transport the pig iron to the warehouse, unload the goods, and finally pay the salaries of the coachmen. This journey is completely over.
It must be fast, the faster the step, the greater the profit.
How could the person in charge of the Li family not know that behind his own convoy, there was a mighty convoy heading towards the capital.
What I want to grab is the first batch of goods from the Hexi Corridor.
The four-wheeled carriage was weighed down by the heavy cargo.
A cart weighs three thousand catties, which is already the limit load of a four-wheeled carriage.
If it weren't for the appearance of the four-wheeled carriage, the Li family company really didn't plan to send a convoy to the Hexi Corridor.
After all, an ordinary two-wheeled carriage can carry a thousand catties, which is almost at its limit. Too many horses and carriages will increase the cost.
The coachmen in this convoy entered the new city,
Everyone was full of energy, they quickly shuttled on the asphalt road, and finally stopped in front of a warehouse.
Here, Li Shaodong's family had already received an urgent report, and recruited manpower to wait here early in the morning.
His eyes lit up, looking at these big carts, one catty of pig iron, at least sixty Wen in net profit could be obtained from it, and the three hundred thousand catties was more than 20,000 taels of silver.
This is the lowest profit estimate, and it doesn't even take into account the recent skyrocketing price of pig iron, excluding all expenses, including the loss of labor and horses and horses.
Even, because it was the first time to lie down and go out, there was a delay in the middle. In fact... if it is faster, you need to be familiar with the road, and the business road is completely opened, the cost can be kept to a minimum.
This round and round is worth 20,000 taels of silver. Where in the world can I find such a good thing.
"Quick, unload!" Li Shaodong's family shouted excitedly.
"Also, hurry up, go to the trading market to put up a sign, hurry up, ship it immediately, and take advantage of the high price now!"
…………
market place……
The Li family was the first to hang a sign.
Crazy merchants, when they saw the words of two hundred and seventy ren per catty, their teeth ached.
Some expensive.
But... under the sign, there is a line of small characters: "High-quality pig iron."
In the trading market, people divide pig iron into four grades: upper, middle, lower, and inferior. Different pig irons have different prices.
The reason why some merchants are attracted to the pig iron in the Hexi Corridor is that the iron ore there is of extremely high quality, and it is top-grade... It is hard to find such high-grade iron ore.
People flocked to the Li family's shop, where they displayed their samples.
This is a pig iron ingot. Many merchants came forward and rubbed it. Now many people have rich experience. After touching it, they knew it in their hearts: "This pig iron...I want it."
"I want it, how many catties do you have?"
"Three hundred thousand catties..."
"Three hundred thousand..." This is not something ordinary merchants can afford: "I want ten thousand catties, is it okay?"
"No, three hundred thousand, we want them all!"
A contract, signed directly.
...
But then...people noticed...an incredible thing happened.
Signs began to hang up one by one.
Wansheng Company, listed for 200,000 catties...
Chen Ji, listing, 650,000 catties...
These shocking numbers made people's eyes straight.
Pig iron, which was originally priceless, has begun to slowly decline...
In the beginning, it was only a slow decline, and people were still talking about it, and some people seemed crazy...hesitating whether to take over.
But later, panic began to spread. Those merchants who took over two hundred texts after saying this began to panic. Looking at this trend... it may plummet.
The current price has actually reached 220 Wen. If this continues, won't it drop to 200 Wen today?
People inquired about all kinds of news.
"Another thirty carts came..."
"I heard that there will be more in the future...it's not good..."
The sell-off begins!
Those merchants who were hoarding their goods now realize that something is wrong.
In the entire trading center, on a huge wall, signs hung up one after another, and the prices began to be refreshed constantly.
Many merchants, beating their chests and feet, let out a howl: "How could the fall be so severe, how could there be so many more sources of goods all of a sudden, my God... I bought the goods at two hundred and thirty Wen, and it was only Moderate."
It was overwhelming. In the trading center, there were crowds of people. They were all merchants. Some people pretended to be calm, some people's faces had changed, but some people... were secretly pleasantly surprised.
The clerks were sweating anxiously, there were people registering and listing signs everywhere, one by one, the signs were hung up, and then, perhaps at this price, they could not be sold, so they continued to update the price.
…………
"Master, master...here it is again...the goods are here again."
Wang Jinyuan ran to Zhen Guo Mansion happily.
Fang Jifan and Zhu Houzhao drank tea calmly.
Anyway, Fang Jifan and Zhu Houzhao are not at a loss anyway.
In this world, someone has to pay tuition fees. As a teacher, Fang Jifan only needs to guarantee that these tuition fees will not be handed over to others.
Zhu Houzhao was very excited: "Haha... I laughed to death. Yesterday, they were reluctant to sell it. Hehe, fighting with Bengong, I don't even look at how many catties they have!"
Wang Jinyuan said: "The current price, the first-class product, has reached the price of 180 Wen."
Fang Jifan said indifferently: "Don't be in a hurry to buy, just keep waiting. The price should be kept at 100 Wen before you make a move. But the premise is that if you buy more than 100 Wen, you won't buy it for a catty, and if you have more than a penny, it won't make a deal."
Wang Jinyuan nodded hurriedly: "I understand, I understand."
Zhu Houzhao said: "It's better to wait until fifty coins, and then accept it when it collapses."
Fang Jifan shook his head: "I calculated, one hundred coins is enough to make a profit for merchants who go to Hexi to sell pig iron. If it is fifty coins, those merchants who go to Xishan will suffer from the northwest wind. Your Highness , Pigs can’t be killed blindly, they have to be raised occasionally, and people can’t be driven to a dead end.”
