Chapter 64: Fujita is dumbfounded, paper prices plummet

Together with Wei Yutang, Fujita Miyachi and others left the Tianyan Emperor's Palace.

Declining Wei Yutang's invitation, the three of them hurried to Lin's house.

"Prince Fujita, what's going on?"

When Lin Kaiji met them, Fujita Miyaichi and the other three didn't look very good!

Fujita Miyaichi said in a deep voice: "Master Lin, the marriage has not been reached!"

"And Ye Chen agreed to the big order we proposed!"

Lin Kaiji's expression changed: "What big order did you place?"

To put pressure on the royal family, Miyachi Fujita took the opportunity to ask for a marriage. This was a plan that Lin Kaiji and Miyachi Fujita had discussed, but they had not discussed anything else!

Fujita Miyaichi said with a sullen face: "Ye Chen seems to be guilty, so we increased the contract by 500 million taels of silver."

"Thirty years of delivery!"

"We thought Ye Chen would not dare to sign, but he did!"

"Master Lin, please help me analyze this. What's going on?"

Lin Kaiji's face turned pale.

What could this be?

If the royal family dares to sign such a contract, it will definitely make a profit, and the profit should be not small!

"What's your price?"

Lin Kaiji asked quickly.

Fujita Miyaichi gritted his teeth and said: "It's double the price of your fourth contract!"

Lin Kaiji secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

At this price, they still have hope!

"Prince Fujita, you dare to sign such a contract for double the price. How brave you are!"

Lin Kaiji felt that they were three fools!

One of the envoys explained the situation in detail.

Lin Kaiji frowned, Ye Chen's tricks were actually so deep, he might have fallen into it too!

"Since the Emperor and Empress agree, the royal family's cost price must be lower than this price!"

Lin Kaiji said bluntly.

Fujita Miyaichi's face became even more ugly: "Master Lin, is it possible to cancel this contract? It is only stamped with the emperor's seal."

Lin Kaiji shook his head: "Prince Fujita, let alone the emperor's seal, even if you do business with a certain businessman, you can't break the contract after it is signed!"

"Unless you don't want to ascend the throne as emperor in the future!"

Fujita Miyaichi wanted to slap himself several times.

When they were in the palace, they were simply begging Ye Chen to make a contract with them!

"Master Lin, you are so powerful in the Tianyan dynasty, so there really is nothing you can do about it? We are willing to pay a compensation of 10 million taels to cancel the contract!"

Fujita Palace.

Lin Kaiji said: "Five hundred million taels of silver or ten million taels, how would you choose?"

Fujita Miyaichi was speechless.

There is no choice at all!

"Now we can only hope that the cost of the royal family's papermaking will be higher, so that you will not lose much, and our six major families may still make some money!"

Lin Kaiji said.

Ten days passed in the blink of an eye, and Eunuch Wu, who was beside Luo Hongyan, arrived at the Lin family again.

"Master Lin, our family has sent you paper again!"

"I'd better put all the paper on your side, and the other five heads of the family can share it with you!"

Eunuch Wu said in a sharp voice.

This time the amount was three times the last time!

Five minutes passed, and hundreds of boxes of blank paper were transferred from the treasures in Eunuch Wu's space to the outside.

"Master Lin, check it out!"

Eunuch Wu said quietly.

Lin Kaiji's heart was bleeding. The delivery of the second batch of paper showed that their second contract also suffered a loss, and the loss was probably not low!

"Eunuch Wu, no problem."

Lin Kaiji checked it carefully, and the other five family heads who came behind also checked it.

They tried to find out the problem, but failed!

"No problem, our family will return to the palace to recover!"

Eunuch Wu left.

"Guys, to be honest, I have an ominous premonition!"

Huangfulong smiled bitterly.

"After the first and second contracts, why did the Emperor and Empress sign a third contract with us?"

They used to think that the royal family had no choice but to use this method to suppress expectations!

But the price of royal paper was not high, and the speed of making paper was also very fast.

All it takes is selling in large quantities to drive down the price of paper!

"Crack!"

A pair of jade beads in Lin Kaiji's hand was crushed by him.

Huangfulong's words are correct.

"We have been fooled, by the emperor and empress!"

The head of the Tao family gritted his teeth and said that the second batch of paper was delivered as scheduled. They actually already had this judgment in their hearts, but they just didn't want to admit it!

Huangfulong's words shattered their illusions!

Since the royal family does not need such expectations of lowering paper prices, there is only one possibility.

The royal family wants to make more money!

They are the harvested leeks!

Lin Kaiji said bitterly: "Let's sell it at the original price and try to sell the paper we received!"

The other masters nodded.

If you don’t ship it, it’s likely that everything will be lost!

"Family...Master, something is wrong!"

The housekeeper of the Lin Mansion hurriedly came to Lin Kaiji and said, "Master, the purchase limit of Royal Paper has been increased from ten to one hundred per person per day!"

"What?"

Lin Kaiji and the others' expressions changed wildly.

The purchase is limited to ten pieces, and some people will buy from them for convenience!

The purchase limit was suddenly increased to one hundred. Who would buy theirs at double the price?

Huangfulong smiled bitterly and said: "Guys, with the speed of the royal family's paper production, even if there is insufficient paper now, the newly made paper will definitely be able to meet the demand!"

"We don't need to discuss it anymore, let's take our leave."

Huangfulong left in a hurry with his piece of paper, and the stores owned by the Huangfu family quickly sold the paper at the same official price, with no purchase restrictions!

"Bah, you used such a high price to make huge profits, now you know how powerful it is?"

"Everyone, although the paper from Royal Paper is limited to purchase, it is enough for use. There is no need to buy it elsewhere!"

"You're right, we won't buy it even if the price drops again. We scholars must have some backbone!"

A lot of people resisted!

Fengming Palace.

Luo Hongyan came here immediately after getting the news, and sure enough, Ye Chen was lying there lazily reading a book.

"Hongyan, judging from your appearance, is there any good news?"

Ye Chen put down the book and said with a smile.

Luo Hongyan sat down next to Ye Chen.

"The six aristocratic families collapsed internally. The Huangfu family was the first to stand up and sell paper, but they couldn't sell their paper at the same price."

Ye Chen chuckled and said, "It's normal. Such a high price broke everyone's hearts. Who hasn't lost their temper yet?"

"It shouldn't take long for the six major families to come look for you!"

Luo Hongyan asked: "What are your plans in this regard? Don't let my decision ruin your plans!"

Ye Chen said coldly: "Hongyan, the six aristocratic families were so arrogant before! Don't let them go, they will not remember your kindness, they will only remember your hatred!"

"This is a good time to establish your imperial authority!"

Luo Hongyan frowned and said, "Ye Chen, if it goes too far, they may fall to Prince Mu."

Ye Chen chuckled and said: "Hongyan, isn't this a good thing? Their cash flow will definitely have huge problems next, and all other industries will be affected."

"Prince Mu, if we save the Situ family, a lot of money will have to be poured into this bottomless pit!"

"In addition, although this completely offends them, it can deter more forces!"

Luo Hongyan nodded lightly. In her heart, she didn't really want to let them go.
