Chapter 688 The Merchant's Last Struggle
Chapter 688 The Merchant's Last Struggle
A few days passed after Ying Yu's order got out.
There have been news from all over the country, and they are all exciting and good news.
Above the court, the people who came back to deliver the letter are telling the general meeting of the situation in various places.
After Ying Yu's imperial decree was issued a few days ago, the local governments immediately issued notices.
At that time, businessmen from all walks of life gritted their teeth after hearing the news.
Everyone wanted to eat this group of officials alive.
In the land of Qilu, the merchants here are the most developed.
Many business tycoons gathered together, and they were discussing the order issued by Ying Yu.
This group of people can still sit here and talk calmly, which is already their greatest self-cultivation.
For those who came here for talks, all the calmness now is just pretending on the surface.
In fact, their hearts were already burning with anger, but the facts forced them to suppress the anger in their hearts.
Because of this matter, they are really unreasonable. Of course, the most important thing is that they are just businessmen and have no capital to resist.
At the beginning, they united to hoard goods in order to fight against Ying Yu under the protection of the law.
Hope to gain some voice.
It's just that they didn't expect the situation to develop so quickly and their defeat to be so complete.
At this moment, the Daqin officials did not use any means of extortion, and everything they did was also in accordance with the law.
These businessmen have suffered a great loss, but they can only smash their teeth and swallow it in their stomachs, which is their own fault.
"It's only been so long, and we're going to lose [-]% out of thin air. How can there be such a reason in the world? I'm not convinced."
"Unconvinced? So what, after all, we are just businessmen, what can we use to challenge the officials?"
"In my opinion, how about we unite again and ask the government for an explanation?"
"That's right, anyway, things have come to this point, we don't mess around with them, we're just trying to reason."
The business tycoon, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke at this moment.
"Having said that, even if we find the government, the government is willing to talk to us, but how can we negotiate?"
This person analyzed the ins and outs.
He bluntly said that the government made such an operation, which was clearly to cheat them.
It was said before that the government subsidized the repurchase of goods in order to reduce the losses of merchants.
In fact, that's just an excuse. If you really want to reduce the losses of the merchants, then just open the blockade.
If the gate cannot be opened, then why did it unseal it immediately after purchasing the goods from the merchants.
In the final analysis, this is just a calculation by the government, and it cannot be regarded as some kind of conspiracy.
The reason why such a situation happened was, in the final analysis, all caused by them themselves.
So at the end of the day, it was the merchants who initiated the war, but they were all defeated in the end.
Ying Yu naturally intended to do this, so he must have already made preparations for the future.
Even if the government interviews this morning, the final result will still not change in any way.
And looking at Ying Yu's operations in the past few days, they have reason to believe that the emperor of Great Qin has a much more calculating heart than them.
If you really want to have an interview this time, you will not be able to guarantee everything, and you will have to add more things.
Things have developed to the current situation. If you want to really avoid losses, you can only accept the reality and swallow the bitter fruit you caused.
Gather up the money and buy the goods again.
Although doing so, the losses of the merchants are still too great to make up for, but after all, this is the best way.
After this tycoon in the business world finished speaking, another person of the same status as him also spoke.
"Since this matter is calculated by His Majesty the Emperor, we have no way to resist, but I think there may be a little room for maneuver in this matter. We can choose a representative and visit Shopkeeper Shen to see if we can negotiate with him." Your Majesty, talk to me."
Immediately after purchasing the goods they had hoarded, the government ordered the unblocking of all the gates.
To put it bluntly, this is the emperor Ying Yu's warning, which is equivalent to announcing it to the world, letting everyone know what will happen if they want to fight against the emperor.
Ying Yu is now the emperor of Great Qin, and he has the greatest power in the world in his hands, so he can naturally do whatever he wants.
He can control and mobilize all the power of this country, and the businessmen finally realized at this moment.
Wanting to fight against such a person is simply nonsense.
Ridiculous, they thought they could really persevere and win.
After unlocking all the checkpoints, Ying Yu went on to order that all the government that purchased the supplies should be sold to merchants again at a price of [-]%.
On the surface, it is also to reduce the losses of the merchants. During this period of time, the government has been busy with this matter for too long.
The price difference in the middle is regarded as the cost of subsidizing the government.
Anyone with a discerning eye knows the price difference, as long as [-]% is taken out, it is enough to cover all expenses.
But the announcement issued by the government did say that the balance was just right.
And the [-]% of the cheaper price still has to be paid by Daqin's official uniform.
This is a typical example of getting cheap and being good-looking, but after all, people say what they say. As long as the truth holds up, even if the words are a little outrageous, businessmen can only grit their teeth and believe them.
All of this was clearly planned by Ying Yu, so it would be impossible for Ying Yu to take care of these businessmen.
But if the price is pushed down again, there is still hope.
After all, earning [-]% less money doesn't actually mean much to Ying Yu.
As for whether this matter can be negotiated, no one can guarantee it.
At this moment, the business tycoons at the gathering, after thinking about it for a long time, all think that this is the only feasible way now.
The representative they elected asked him to represent more than half of the businessmen in the world to meet Shen Wansan in person, hoping to negotiate terms with Ying Yu.
What they are asking for is not much, they can only lower the price by [-]%, and it will be considered a success.
If they can't reach an agreement, even [-]% is a good thing for them.
The specific plan, they will negotiate in the remaining time.
Afterwards, a respected business tycoon went to Xianyang on behalf of the merchants.
After meeting Shen Wansan, he explained why he came.
Ying Yu, who got the news, smiled knowingly, "This is what I, a Daqin businessman, should look like."
Afterwards, Ying Yu asked the person who was the representative of the business world to come to the Qilin Hall to have an audience.
At this moment, it is still in the court meeting, and all civil and military officials are on the list.
The representative of the business community just walked up to the Qilin Hall.
This is the first time he has come to such a place. As a giant in the business world, he has seen many big scenes in his life.
But it was his first time to come to such a grand, solemn, and supreme place.
He tried his best to keep his posture stable, and after walking into the main hall, he saluted Ying Yu respectfully.
Ying Yu didn't want to entangle too much, so he asked him to explain why he came.
It took a long time for this giant in the business world to calm down.
Only then did he dare to look up, Ying Yu on the dragon chair.
This glance, let him know what is called a real dragon among men
We have been in the business world for many years, so we naturally have a good eye for people.
At this moment, he just saw Ying Yu for the first time, and he was completely convinced by Ying Yu's temperament.
This tycoon in the business world is bitter at the moment and has only one thought.
"If I could have met His Majesty the Emperor earlier, how could I do such absurd things?"
