The latest chapter of Prince in Imperial Clothes Yang Chengzu was very polite to Yang Shen, but his attitude was also extremely firm and he refused to even make any concessions.
"Brother Yang, what I mean has been made very clear.
They have an hour to mobilize food funds and manpower.
After an hour, they just need to maintain the food price at the level before the Tatar siege.
To be honest, before the Tatar siege, Grain dealers still make a profit on the price of grain, but it's just that they make more or less.
I admit that if they are asked to donate grain again, they may lose money this time.
When the bandits besiege the city, some people are working hard, and some are bleeding.
Let them pay some money and compensate for some food.
Isn't it natural that everyone is in trouble?
How can they continue to make a fortune?
This makes no sense.
Brother Yang is a scholar. , they know more truths than I do, Confucius said, but they don’t know what principles support them in making money forever.”
Yang Shen's face froze.
In his opinion, the grain merchant had already done his best to retreat to this step.
In fact, if it weren't for Yang Tinghe's mediation, the strike would have already begun.
This was possible because the grain merchants gave the chief minister face.
Yang Tinghe wanted to get things done, so he left the face to Yang Chengzu.
Unexpectedly, he didn't appreciate it and refused directly.
This was a bit intolerable.
"Brother Yang Shi, I can understand some of your reasoning, but I can only say that there are people who do the business of beheading, and no one does the business of losing money.
This kind of saying is indeed not in line with the way of a saint, but what we are facing is There is nothing that can be done for such a group of merchants.
The city is surrounded by thieves and there are so many people in the city.
What you want is stability, and other things can only be put aside.
In fact, if my father hadn't fought for it, the capital would have started to stop.
You are right, they are just hoarding, but there is no way. , every disaster year is like this, this is the foundation of business. " Yang Shen softened his tone again and kept his body as low as possible: "Brother Chengzu, those grain merchants are not really going to starve to death.
There are too many people dead.
Once a civil uprising occurs, the grain merchants will be the first to bear the brunt. , and they don’t want to, so they will open a porridge restaurant to make sure that these people don’t get into trouble.
The purpose is to harvest the land.
In fact, the military food on the border has to be transported by these grain merchants, so that they can get some benefits.
It is better than them actually quitting, causing the people to have money and not be able to buy it.
The things must be good.
Besides, if all the businesses are shut down at the same time, this means serious consequences, please think about it.”
Yang Chengzu smiled at Red Peony, "Sister Mudan, invite the other sisters here.
You know these things better than me.
Tell Mr.
Yang."
Not long after, Red Peony brought a woman in.
Some of these women were women from the same family as her, and some were the daughters-in-law of wealthy families that Yang Chengzu bought in Anlu.
For one reason or another, these people became slaves of the Yang family, and their talents in calculation or management were discovered by Yang Chengzu, and now they all hold errands such as stewards in the government.
Including the two maids from the palace, Siqin and Qi were among them.
Yang Shen praised Yang Chengzu for his taste, but it was just a compliment.
A famous person like him, a great talent, can do whatever he wants, and others will not say no.
But to say how much he really values a woman is to think too much.
As far as he is concerned, there are only a few men in the world who can catch the eye of Dharma.
As for the so-called talented women, they are just a gimmick and not worth a penny.

Nowadays, although there are female mountain people and female helpers, they are still in the category of three aunts and six wives, and they cannot be considered elegant.
It is possible to cause trouble in the boudoir, but Yang Shen is not optimistic about letting them actually do things.
From the bottom of his heart, he was very critical of Yang Chengzu's method of using beautiful women to manage all matters in the family.
He thought that the other party was a vulgar warrior and a drunkard, and after all he had no great achievements.
When I saw so many women coming in to worship together, I felt even more embarrassed and unseemly.
These women were of different ages, but their appearance was not bad, and their demeanor was good.
Some of them looked like they were from well-known families.
I don't know how they ended up in the Yang family as servants.
Seeing Yang Shen looking over, several women were slightly red-faced and a little shy.
This was not surprising.
After all, there was a handsome and unrestrained first talent in the Ming Dynasty in front of him.
It was reasonable for a few women to be attracted to him.
Hong Mudan coughed, and the expressions of these women immediately returned to solemnity.
Siqin walked out expressionlessly, opened the account book in his hand, and chanted loudly.
However, the amount of grain stored in Niu Jijie and the location where it was stored, including two secret warehouses, were clearly stated.
Later, the property of Cao Zihou, Liu Shoudao and others was also clearly stated.
What Siqi was talking about was the large amounts of grain that several grain dealers had eaten more than twenty days ago, as well as the figures of grain they had eaten during the same time period in previous years.
After two comparisons, you can find that the amount of food eaten this time is surprising and a bit abnormal.
When something goes wrong, it becomes a monster.
The intake of such a large number is enough to illustrate the problem.
With Yang Shen's wisdom, he naturally understood that this problem was not just a simple hoarding, but that they actually knew that there would be a large influx of refugees in the capital before the Mongolian soldiers besieged the capital, and made preparations in advance.
If you continue to investigate, you can rise to the level of Tonglu.
Red Peony came over by herself at this time, reading a long list.
The businessmen on this list are all those who Yang Chengzu promised not to participate in the strike and are even willing to operate at a loss.
The name that should not appear on this list is Fan Zhong, who was beaten to death.
"Fan Zhong" "My people.
I think Young Master Yang understands this.
So you understand now that even if Pang Wencai really goes to war, it will only be done by a group of people, and there will still be some businessmen operating normally. " "But the operations of these merchants are not enough to meet the needs of the entire capital.
Once all the chambers of commerce cease operations, these people will not be able to sustain the business."
"Sister Jin Chan, it's up to you to discuss this issue."
The woman named Jin Chan blushed and said to Yang Shenfu, "Sir, we have ambushed Jin Yiwei around every shop.
If any shop is closed, our people will help them open the door.
Since they are not doing business, then Let us do business for them and ensure that the people will not have nothing to buy.
We can even control those warehouses.
They will either pay 10,000 shi of food or lose all the food.
It is up to them what they choose.
