Chapter 418 One disaster after another

Xiao Yu had always thought that he had hidden things deeply and had not been exposed, but looking at Shopkeeper Liu in front of him, he felt that something might have been exposed.

"Think carefully, when did the transaction between us and Zhi Da Bao begin, and when did they say they were going to terminate the relationship with us? Don't miss any details in between. The more detailed you are, the better. ."

Xiao Yu was also a capable person. If he had not been born at the wrong time, he would have been able to influence the situation in the court. Even so, he had served as a prime minister. Although he is currently idle at home, it does not mean that he personal abilities have declined.

Under such a chaotic situation, the main cause of the incident was quickly grasped, that is, Zhizhidaobao terminated its loan cooperation with them. If this is true, then many of the actions of His Highness King Wu will be stopped. There was originally going to be a banquet for these generals, but if they couldn't come up with some powerful bribery supplies, then the banquet would have no effect.

Some people stand in line for their own political future, and some people stand in line just for these yellow and white things. If you don't have it, then why do they need to stand behind you?

Shopkeeper Liu recalled everything. Because their assets were all excellent assets and they were registered with Zhi Da Bao, they basically passed the verification in just three days. Moreover, the manager of Zhi Da Bao also said that if you have similar assets that you want to mortgage in the future, you can contact them at any time. They have a very good attitude.

But when he came to see him just now, his attitude was neither cold nor indifferent, completely different from before. Shopkeeper Liu didn't understand what was going on, but Xiao Yu already understood it, which meant that the other party had already Have you noticed that if Zhi Da Bao is someone else's business, someone may need to interfere with it, but Zhi Da Bao itself is Li Xiang's business, and this matter must have something to do with Li Xiang.

"How about I ask a few acquaintances in the shopping mall, who have a good relationship with Zhi Da Bao, to tell us something?"

When Shopkeeper Liu saw Xiao Yu being silent for a long time, he also thought about what he could do. Xiao Yu himself was dissatisfied with him. If he could help with this matter, he might still be in this position in the future. , if it has no effect at all, I am afraid that the position of the big shopkeeper will change hands after this incident.

"Immediately go find these people overnight and ask them to say a word to us. Don't be reluctant to spend money. As long as this thing is done, no matter how much money you spend, you will be able to earn back ten times in the future. I will be here." Waiting for you to report back to me immediately if you have any news."

Although Xiao Yu understood that these friends of shopkeeper Liu would not have much effect, Xiao Yu still had a glimmer of hope in his heart. If it was a purely commercial operation, maybe a few words from these people would be useful. Of course, Xiao Yu's heart There are already other ideas, this is just one of the ways.

"Young man, go right here."

Shopkeeper Liu ran out quickly. He also realized that this matter was very important, but he didn't know why their master spent so much money. You must know that in recent years, in addition to the normal expenses of the house, In addition, the master basically doesn’t take money from their business. Most of the time, he will put some money into his hands and let him expand the business. I don’t know what happened now, but he wants so much money all of a sudden. .

"master…"

Hearing the voice of the old housekeeper, Xiao Yu frowned again. Usually after sunset, nothing happens in this house. Why are there so many things today?

After hearing the old butler's report, Xiao Yu was even more surprised. Did the other party's counterattack come so quickly?

When he asked shopkeeper Liu to go out to contact his friend just now, Xiao Yu still felt a little lucky. Maybe it was a purely commercial operation, maybe he wanted to increase the interest. It may have nothing to do with this matter, but when he saw the person outside the door When he came to Wuzhuangtou, he knew that this matter was not that simple.

Shopkeeper Liu is responsible for the business operations of the Lanling Xiao family, and Wuzhuangtou is responsible for the grain farm of the Lanling Xiao family. Now that Wuzhuangtou has come all the way here, he must have encountered something fatal.

"Are you coming from Luoyang?"

Xiao Yu said somewhat incredulously that although this person was an old man in his hands, he only met him twice throughout the year. Except for the Chinese New Year and August 15th, when he came to send off his breath, he did not meet Xiao Yu at all at other times.

"Replying to the master, I set off at noon today. I changed horses without changing people along the way, and then I arrived at Chang'an City. Something big happened. The steward of the Cui family..."

Wuzhuangtou didn't care about anything else and quickly told his story. It turned out that there was a buyer for the grain on their farm, and the deposit was paid. But when it was time to pick up the grain, the steward of the Cui family He actually said he didn’t want it anymore, not even the previous deposit.

Such a thing has never happened. The Cui family is the largest grain merchant in the entire Tang Dynasty. If you want to buy and sell grain, you must go to them to sell it.

For people like Xiao Yu, they usually don't care about such things at all. The people below carry out the transactions, but now there are mountains of food lying there. If they can't be sold, they must There needs to be enough granaries. If you want granaries, you have to spend money to build them.

It's okay to have enough time, but we don't have that time now. The weather is relatively good these days, but if it rains, the food will become moldy. Even if you want to lower the price, you won't be able to sell it in the end. .

The Lanling Xiao family's dozen or so farms are all doing business with the Cui family, and they have been doing business for more than ten years. Now, if the other party breaks the agreement, they will pay the deposit, no matter where the lawsuit ends. Go, there is nothing we can do to save it.

After a long time, Xiao Yu finally calmed down. The annual expenses of the Lanling Xiao family are not a small amount, and food income accounts for 40% of it. If the food income is out If there is a problem, then these people may not have money to eat in the coming year, which is fatal to any big family.

Although the Lanling Xiao family has other income, such a sales system cannot be established overnight. It is also profitable for the Cui family. Why don't they make money? Could it be that my money bites my hand?
