Chapter 171: Domination


Walking out of the door of the Silver Hook Casino, Ren Zhen was in a much more relaxed mood.This gamble was completely different from what he expected.He could not have expected that he would be involved in the business war between the two major families in the capital, and unexpectedly throw himself into the Ye family.According to his original plan, he wanted to win as much money as possible, and after forcing the dealer behind the scenes to show up, he would reveal a certain layer of his identity, using both soft and hard to put pressure on the other party.It's okay now, with the Ye family behind their backs, the Mu family should not be ruined, which can reduce some trouble.And the biggest surprise is to join the Ye family itself.This was another task in his overall plan, and due to the encounter at the casino, it was completed ahead of schedule, so there was no need for painstaking planning.The Ye family is one of the important goals of his coming to Chang'an, and he has inextricable grievances.The enemy is bright and I am dark, and the young and old of the Ye family at this time are not clear who the young man in front of him is.However, Ren Zhen knows his relationship with this young and old couple very well.Some old accounts, it's time to settle them.He asked Gu Haitang to find an inn to live in first, and he went to work as an errand with Ye Lao, and immediately became the second housekeeper.The Ye family in the east of the city, the foundation is far from being as simple as a family.The plaque hanging on the lintel of the luxurious mansion is not written with the word "Ye Mansion", but "Dedication to the Mansion".Ye Wuji, one of the six dukes, is one of the six princes, according to the rank of the current dynasty, he is a very civil minister, and he is the highest glory in the eyes of the courtiers with different surnames, just like the descendants of the royal family divide the territory and seal the king.Unlike other princes, although the title of Duke Xianguo was also awarded at the founding of the country, Ye Zhidong's merits were not obvious, and he became the biggest dark horse, which was a blockbuster at the time and caused a lot of sensation.In the following twenty years, the power of the Ye family has been tepid, unlike some high-ranking officials, the saints have risen step by step, and they have not suffered from neglect and sinking, and they are relatively dull.It is not easy to live in Chang'an, and it is already a great blessing to be able to sail smoothly in the treacherous sea.Outsiders don't know where the blessing comes from, and they are inexplicably jealous and jealous of the Ye family.The Ye family has a deep heritage, and the repaired mansion is even deeper than the sea.Ren Zhen followed behind Ye Lao all the way, cautious, not daring to look around, and silently remembering all the details of Ye Mansion in his heart.Walking in the winding verandah, I met many people along the road, and they retreated to both sides and saluted Ye Lao, extremely respectful."

I've seen the old lady, the young master."

It turned out that this Ye Lao was the Duke of Xianguo himself, and the son Ye Tianming was his own grandson, the young master of the Ye family.Although Ren Zhen expected it, he still had a lot of emotion in his heart, "Creation makes people, who would have thought that we would meet so early" Ye Lao walked to the depths of the courtyard with his hand, and suddenly remembered the new Ren Zhen, so he beckoned the chief housekeeper Ye Minghua to come over and explain the appointment order, so that the two could settle down.Ye Minghua is a tall and thin middle-aged man, who is not only capable of being a big housekeeper and taking care of the whole house, but also a thoughtful character.Seeing that the old lady was personally appointed, Ye Minghua knew that this young man was highly valued, how could he dare to be lazy, he personally took Ren Zhen around the mansion and introduced the general situation, and his attitude was very gentle.As the top priority, the two went to the silver warehouse, granary and account room together, and after taking stock of the Ye family's inventory of money and grain, they handed over it clearly in person.After that, Ye Minghua summoned all the bookkeepers over and left after announcing the appointment.The Ye family dared to compete with the Cui family for the grain business in the entire capital, and its financial capital was strong enough, and there were dozens of people just for the settler and the warehouse guys.When these subordinates stood in front of him and saluted together, Ren Zhen's face was full of spring breeze, and his heart was very comfortable."

If it was placed in the previous life, this should be regarded as a financial director, I never expected that I would actually enter the financial accounting industry in this life" He coughed lightly, turned to sit on the chair he moved, and began his first lecture after taking office."

Before I introduce myself, let me guess, you must be curious, how I squeezed out my former butler and sat in this position, right, do you want to learn too" Everyone looked at each other silently.Judging by the situation, this newly appointed young housekeeper is another monkey spirit who is not easy to deal with."

My name is Ren Zhen, according to the rules of the house, I will be called Ye Zhen in the future.I won't hide it from you, I have just entered the capital, and I will have to worry about many trivial matters in the future. ”He paused slightly, and said seriously: "As for why he was promoted, it was because I helped the old lady of our family and taught the Cui family a hard lesson."

Therefore, if I take over the money and food, and deal with the Cui family in the future, everyone will have to work harder" When everyone heard this, they all had a look of sudden realization.The Ye family has been in the grain business recently, competing with the Cui family for hegemony and monopolizing the entire Chang'an grain market.The position of the money and grain steward is very important, no wonder this young man was appointed, it turned out that he started by running the Cui family.After the new housekeeper takes the position, he will inevitably make careful calculations and work harder to bring down the Cui family in order to repay the old lady for his kindness."

A few of you stay, and the others are scattered" The few people he left behind were all henchmen of the Ye family who were in charge of money and food, and they knew the current situation well.When he infiltrated the Ye family, he first had to find out the details of the other party."

You report first, let's talk about the grain stock of us and the Cui family."

A supervisor stepped forward and said respectfully: "According to the undercover report we planted in the Cui family, the two families are currently buying about the same amount of grain in the market, and they have hoarded about 500,000 stones. ”First buy external grain at a high price, hoard it, and monopolize it, resulting in a shortage of grain in the market and a shortage of supply, and then sell it at a higher price to manipulate the grain market, which is the so-called hegemony.In order to compete for hegemony, Ye Cui and his family are sparing no effort to collect grain at a high price, converting the cash on hand into grain hoarding.If anyone can't hold on and can't hoard food anymore, they will not only lose their previous achievements, but will also be controlled by the other party, forced to sell at a low price, and lose all their money.This is the reason why the Cui family is in a hurry to make peace, and they can't hold it anymore.Ren Zhen nodded, remembering in his heart, "How much cash is left in the treasury of the two families" The gentleman in charge of keeping the silver treasury stood up and replied: "Our family still has nine million taels left, as for the Cui family, it should be less than five million."

However, it is not excluded that in the hands of the heads of both sides, there are still some silver tickets at the bottom of the box. ”Ren Zhen didn't speak again, closed his eyes and began to calculate.He needs to roughly estimate how many days the Cui family can last according to the current market price, and if the two sides choose to reduce their holdings, how much grain should they sell in order to choke each other to death.It's a complicated calculation.At this time, another bookkeeper added: "There is another situation that you need to know.The reason why the Cui family couldn't hold it back was also because Cui even owed a lot of gambling debts outside, and this time he exhausted his financial resources, making those creditors restless and coming to the door to force debts. ”Ren Zhen opened his eyes, shining brightly, and understood what he meant
