C63 Businesses Fighting for Wealth

Second Opium War had only been around for four years, and the newly opened business areas were basically monopolized by the English and French. Although the USA could also join in, due to the war in the country, they had not been able to interfere too much.

Under this situation, English and French Trader naturally formed an alliance and started a price alliance. For example, in this Pig Mane Trade, although one kilogram of silver dollar was expensive, as long as they could transport it back to the Europe, they would earn at least four times or more of the profit.

This was what a typical distance was like. The distant sea not only caused inconvenience in traffic, but also extremely high profits for the goods. To Trader, it was a painful yet happy experience.

It was not like the Trader of Daqing could not see through this point. No one could look down on Chinese's intelligence, this kind of monopolistic method of making money was not new at all. However, due to various reasons, Qing Dynasty Trader could only sit on the ground and watch Trader. Without Ocean trade, he would naturally be controlled by others, and even if he met with a monopoly, he would be at a disadvantage.

Now, Xiao Letian actually said that he wanted to break the English and French's price alliance, and introduce a new face into the business world. This was definitely beneficial for the business people of Tanggu Port. Furthermore, with two evil spirits's reputation as Xiao Letian, he might actually succeed.

A fervent look had already appeared in Trader's eyes. Xiao Letian was too familiar with this look. He knew what Trader really needed in his heart. As long as he was right and took the medicine, it would be easy for him to do so.

The weird atmosphere in the Oceanic made High Scholar Huang and Xiao Biansun very uneasy. Their dog-like sense of smell allowed them to smell a smell of betrayal, and they knew that these Trader must have been persuaded by Xiao Letian, so the greed and hesitation in their eyes couldn't be deceived.

Xiao Biansun pressed his hand on the steel dart on the braid's head and stared at his allies with a cold gaze. Idiot could understand the threat in Xiao Biansun's eyes.

"Hahaha, what you said was better than singing. Don't forget that this Tanggu is the territory of Daqing, even if the foreign people come, they have to follow the rules of the treaty. You think a new foreign businessman can come? Where did you put court and Emperor? Where did you put adults and adults? "You sure are arrogant …" High Scholar Huang had no choice but to open his mouth. He emphasized the words "Tong Zhi" and "Feng Tai".

On the surface, they were questioning Xiao Letian, but in reality, they were threatening Trader. The subtext was that no one was to be a traitor, be careful not to get into trouble when the time came.

How could Xiao Letian care about such a despicable threat? He was too lazy to answer him, so he just turned around and asked Fan Lian, "Is the auspicious hour coming soon?" Fan Lian took out his pocket watch and looked at it. "In another quarter of an hour, it will be the auspicious hour …"

At this moment, a slightly embarrassed voice sounded out behind Xiao Letian, "Mr. Xiao, Manager Fan, the name of your treasure is open for business. At this moment, a slightly embarrassed voice sounded out behind Xiao Letian," Mr. Xiao, Manager Fan, the name of your treasure is open for business.

"I have some pig's hair. I know that you and French have discussed it already, so I won't trouble you. I'll pass it to you today." Not much. According to the foreigners' algorithm, it was more than seven tons, more than seven thousand kilograms … "Thanks for your help. If you don't count, let's settle the accounts at the price of seven thousand …"

The one who spoke up was a Trader surnamed Wang. In Tanggu, he was just a third-rate Owner, with a small trading station, he received a few pieces of business from everyone here. There were many things he did not like being rich, so basically everyone present could scold him.

Xiao Letian and Fan Lian had already known that Trader would come to discuss the pig mane business today. This was something that they had decided on with many Sun Steeles before the opening ceremony, and it was all about luck. However, how could they, overjoyed, discover that Boss Wang looked so awkward?

"Boss Wang, Gao Yi, this humble one owes you a debt of gratitude. In a while, I'll definitely toast you three times …" Before Fan Lian could finish being polite, Boss Wang's face suddenly turned red and he said in a low voice, "I dare not …" "However, my business is not that big. I still need to eat some more today. I hope Manager Fan can first reward me with some goods …"

At that time, Fan Lian's face froze as he thought to himself, what kind of rule is this? There's no such thing as doing business here? But Xiao Letian suddenly laughed and said, "Boss Wang, do you want the banknotes or the Current silver?"

"Current silver, I only recognize Current silver, I am truly ashamed, I am ashamed …" This time, Boss Wang's face was completely red. He knew that he was the youngest Trader, Yellow Lord and the others could not afford to offend him, but Xiao Letian and the others could not. However, High Scholar Huang's side had the advantage of numbers, so Boss Wang could only brace himself and take the lead.

"Someone come!" Giving Boss Wang seven thousand Ocean … " With a roar, two burly men walked out from the accounting room. They were holding a large lacquer tray filled with red foreign currency scrolls, and a hundred of them were rolled into a ball with red paper.

Xiao Letian grabbed a condor Yang, and gently pulled it apart. The bright silver dollar fell onto the lacquer plate, and the double-headed eagle's symbol could be clearly seen. This was the most famous currency that affected the financial markets of the China, the Mexico Eagle Yang.

"Boss Wang, wait and see. There are seven thousand Mexico eagles, do you need to go through them individually …" How could Boss Wang have the face to open them one by one at this time? He quickly beckoned Buddy from his shop to carry them away.

Boss Wang wiped the sweat off his forehead, bowed and said, "I'm really sorry. Don't blame adults for this small business of mine …" Xiao Letian had already seen through the problem. He patted Boss Wang on the shoulder and said honestly, "It's fine. You have your own difficulties too. We'll be working together for a long time. I'm sure you know a lot about people …"

Just then, another person, Chief Manager, stood up and bowed slightly towards Xiao Letian. "Mr. Xiao is indeed magnanimous. I can't not take your business today, I also have 8000 kg of pig's hair in my hands. I want to transfer it to Mr. Xiao …" But we also need Current silver s, I am really sorry about the fact that we need to go about doing business, we have let you down … "

Xiao Letian laughed and said in a domineering tone, "What are you saying? Those who come are guests. Since you are buying and selling me, how can I not appreciate you?" "Serving the accountant, preparing the contract, we will eat all the pig hair that we have today …"

In a split-second, the entire Oceanic felt like it had exploded. Trader and the others who had already teamed up all stood up and started shouting non-stop.

"Mr. Xiao Hang, my storehouse has 12,000 kilograms... I have thirty thousand pounds... Sixty thousand... Eighty thousand … One by one, the numbers started rolling up and down. Xiao Letian was always calm and emotionless.

Ying Yang carried out the boxes one by one. After the contracts were written, they would immediately light up the Ocean. Xiao Letian was not worried that these people would go back on their words.

Tanggu's people finally opened his eyes today. He had never seen anyone doing business like this before. He received the entire sum without even seeing a single paper contract on the spot. Furthermore, shouldn't all the banknotes be for the Ocean? The most peculiar thing was that the Rakuten was dealing with only one kind of Currency, which was the Mexico's Eagle Ocean.

"Yellow Lord …" This, this, this was not right. Where did Xiao Letian get so much foreign money from the foreigners? Is he really backed by a foreigner? " Xiao Biansun didn't have the slightest bit of arrogance left and didn't even have the confidence to speak anymore.

High Scholar Huang was also dumbfounded. Although he was from the Tanggu, Landlord, the majority of his assets were just real items like land. The top of the Current silver family was only about a hundred thousand taels of silver, he had never seen people spending money like this. In just the time it took to make a cup of tea, Rakuten had already carried out 100,000 Ocean.

"Look again, look again …" In any case, if we don't suffer a loss, I don't believe that Xiao Letian, the God of Fortune, has possessed us! He had only returned to the Daqing half a year ago and he could gather so much money? Out of it? " High Scholar Huang's forehead was covered in sweat.

At this time, the people on the street outside the door were all stunned, they saw Buddy carrying a red cloth Ocean and walking towards his own home, and in the end even the foreigners were shocked, many westerner looked at the feast from afar, sighing at the wealth of Daqing.

At this time, Fan Sai Manager pulled Xiao Letian aside and whispered, "This won't do, we won't be able to hold on for long." "This is obviously because they are joining forces to fight against us for wealth. The silver warehouse behind us only has over 400,000 eagles. If we continue to spend like this, we'll be able to see the bottom in a day …"

Xiao Letian rolled his eyes and calculated: "400,000 pieces, 400,000 kilograms, this is 400 tons of pig hair..." "Damn, this is already a mountain. This group of people can't possibly have more goods than this number, can they?"

"Aiya, my good Master Xiao, don't be rash, you should know how big the throughput is in the sea trade. Just the Merchant ships alone is enough to carry more than 1000 tons of pig mane, and right now, Tanggu's warehouse is filled with pig mane gathered here by Li, Henan, Shandong and Shanxi. Let alone crammed with a Lucky, as long as we have sufficient time, crammed with two of them would not be a problem …"

Xiao Letian sucked in a breath of cold air. He had still underestimated the scale of the ocean trade, this epoch was precisely at the peak of the sail Merchant ships's development, sea s could be seen everywhere with cargo exceeding a few hundred tons, or even over a thousand tons.

Fan Lian understood the moment he saw Xiao Letian's weird gaze. He frowned and said in a low voice, "It seems like these Wu steelers want to fight with us for wealth. They are joining forces to pressure us." There is no choice, today is the only thing we can do, last until the opening, then start as soon as possible, we will temporarily stop collecting pig hair in the afternoon, and from tomorrow onwards, we must have a daily limit until the Current silver s in the Taibai Top are transferred over … "

Xiao Letian laughed bitterly, "I'm afraid it's not that simple, this is not just Trader's fight for wealth, this is what those surnamed Huang did. They are forcing me to lower my head here, he wants me to lose face in front of universal population, and even made the foreigners look down on us …"

"If the famous two evil spirits, the head of the Jin Shang, Manager Fan is unable to fork out over a million silver, who would dare to do business with us in the future? "Damn, I hate this kind of scheme the most. It's the hardest to deal with …"

What Xiao Letian said was right, a million silver wasn't much to Xiao Letian and Fan Lian, the Taibai Top already had over a million silver in deposits in the past few months. Furthermore, Fan Lian even had a million Current silver hidden in Beijing.

Money was not a problem, but timing was a big problem. Even if Grandchild had the money, he still wouldn't be able to bring it up.

Just when Manager Fan was frowning, a voice rang out, "Rakuten is indeed extraordinary. The Four Seas Trading Company is extremely impressed. I have three hundred thousand kilograms of pig's hair and I want to transfer it to Manager Fan …" "I want the Current silver, I don't want the silver notes …"

At the most critical moment, cow-keeper finally made his move, and with a Strangle, if Xiao Letian ate this business, then Oceanic's Current silver reserves would immediately run low, and Liu Tie, who was at the back of the line, would not be able to get a single silver. However, if they did not take this business, then they would completely give in in front of all Trader. In the future, perhaps even foreigners would look down on this Rakuten.

"cow-keeper is indeed rich, this one dares not compare to him, but I also have a hundred thousand kilograms in the storehouse, I hope Rakuten can eat it …"

"I have one hundred and twenty thousand catties …" I have a hundred and fifty thousand pounds... I have a hundred and thirty thousand... "I have two hundred and ten thousand …"

When cow-keeper took action, it meant that the first tier Tanggu Trader began to fight. This group of people were not like the second or third tier Little Trader, they at least had over a hundred thousand kilograms of pig hair. Once this group of people joined the battle, the transaction volume would instantly reach the terrifying number of over seven hundred thousand silver coin.

High Scholar Huang sneered as he looked at Xiao Letian. He thought to himself, "You're awesome!" I think you're still the best? The Tanggu has an inventory of 1.4m kg of pig mane, do you think we would tell you about a foreigner? If you, Kid, can take out one million and four hundred thousand Current silver, I will immediately flee Tanggu and hide from you for the rest of my life … "
