Chapter 935 Snatching
Shopkeeper He sneered proudly, Ruixiang Pavilion finally couldn't hold it any longer.
However, this shopkeeper Li—or rather, shopkeeper Xu Rongyue behind her, is really quite capable. Has the courage of a strong man to break his wrist.
If there is really a large amount of fresh Western goods to support, it will definitely be able to sell a lot of balsam balm, then it will not be easy to destroy Ruixiang Pavilion in a short period of time.
Of course, Western goods are not easy to obtain. There are few merchants going to sea. The sea voyage is not only long-term, but also risky. How can it be such a coincidence that Ruixiang Pavilion can get Western goods at this time?
If this is the case, then what he has done during this time is completely meaningless.
Shopkeeper He is a cautious person. Although this news made him feel down, he did not panic, nor did he believe it easily. Instead, he reported the matter to Master Lu in detail, and asked Master Lu to send someone to investigate.
With the Lu family's network in the business field, it is not difficult to find out such a thing.
As a result, the Lu family found out.
Not only found out, but also found out that it is far from the truth!
Through a round of investigation, the Lu family found that the goods Ruixiangge wanted were not only those that the shopkeeper knew, but also a large amount of agarwood, sandalwood and other precious spices, various pearls, gems, rhino horns and ivory , coral glass and other treasures, as well as large quantities of precious dry seafood.
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is worth the price.
This huge cargo belongs to a caravan that has just returned from the ocean. The merchant ship of that caravan was destroyed in the storm at sea, and many people died. The partners who made enough money were a little disheartened. , I was also a little scared, so I decided to break up and quit. This last batch of goods was also eager to cash in cash, so all the goods were packaged and sold to save trouble, all of them cost 1.3 to 1.5 million. two silver coins.
This price looks high, but it is easy to sell it after you get it, and it is easy to double or even triple or triple your profit. There is no need to worry about sales, Western goods have always been in short supply.
Xu Rongyue attaches great importance to this transaction. Not only can it make a lot of money, but it can also make Mingyue Tower go to the next level and save Ruixiang Pavilion. Therefore, as soon as he got the news through a certain channel, Xu Rongyue Immediately go south to contact this big business in person.
The Mingyuelou family couldn't afford such a big business. Xu Rongyue planned to do it together with a partner.
The core members of the Lu family gathered together to discuss, and everyone's heart skipped a beat with excitement.
If the news is true, this is really a big deal!
As soon as you change hands, you will at least make a profit of millions, and it is a guaranteed profit. How can such a big good thing not have the Lu family's share?
The Lu family not only wanted to eat this deal, but also wanted to swallow it all.
Mr. Lu sent his son and eldest son to the south in a hurry with silver notes and confidants, and he must **** this big deal.
The Lu family doesn't have so much cash in cash, and now they can only collect more than 600,000 taels on the book, but the Lu family has the Ning Wangfu as their backing, so it is convenient to write an IOU. When the goods are released, they will be returned immediately, at most two or three months. I believe that the other party will not sell the face of Ning Wangfu.
Since this is not a trivial matter, the amount involved is too huge, and the fact that they do not have the ability to pay the full amount at one time must not be exposed, otherwise it is very likely to bring trouble to the Ning Wangfu, Wu Wangfu and Qian Wangfu. There is an opportunity to make a big fuss.
Therefore, although the second master Lu and the eldest son of Lu went south, they did not plan to reveal their identities. When they arrived in Jiangnan, they would just stand behind the scenes and command and let others come forward.
With the ability of the Lu family, it is very easy to find a businessman who has nothing to do with the Lu family.
Mr. Lu repeated thousands of instructions, asking the second brother and the eldest son to inquire carefully and secretly after they arrived in Jiangnan, and make sure that this matter is true before starting.
Master Lu Er and Young Master Lu repeatedly agreed, but their hearts had already flown away.
Qin Lang has a lot of excellent scouts, and Su Jin has already ordered people to keep an eye on the Lu family. Although the second master Lu and the eldest son of Lu brought people out of Beijing, they were very secretive, but they still couldn't hide from Su Jin's eyes.
After getting the news, Su Jin smiled coldly, and the Lu family was one step closer to death.
Mr. Lu Er and Young Master Lu rushed to Jiangnan, and through various relationships and channels, finally determined that this matter is indeed true. But everyone is very sorry, because someone has already taken the lead in negotiating with that marine merchant, and there is no way for others to intervene.
Mr. Lu Er’s uncle and nephew looked at each other and smiled, their eyes gleaming. The fact that others don't have this ability doesn't mean that the Lu family doesn't have this ability.
It is not the first time for the Lu family to do things like stealing, threatening and enticing.
If it is not Su Jin who contacted the maritime merchants first, maybe they can consider eating meat and sharing a little soup for the other party. After all, their Lu family is also a reasonable person, for the sake of contacting them first. A profit is also possible.
But, who said that Xu Rongyue was Su Jin's? They definitely won't leave her a mouthful of soup!
The Lu family's uncle and nephew stood behind, using all means to force Xu Rongyue and others out.
Xu Rongyue deserves to be Xu Rongyue. The uncle and nephew of the Lu family have already played the trick of bullying others, but they fought with Xu Rongyue for more than half a month, and finally they were torn apart by Xu Rongyue. This is the end of it.
Although Xu Rongyue's group only got 300,000 taels of silver in the end, and the bulk of 1 million taels went to the Lu family, the Lu family's uncles and nephews still felt very unwilling and felt that this matter was not perfect.
got the goods, and the uncle and nephew soon returned to Beijing by water with the goods.
Thinking of how much profit this large batch of seafood will bring back to Beijing, the Lu family's uncle and nephew felt better.
However, what they didn't expect was that when the boat was halfway through, it happened to meet the infighting of the Cao Gang, and the two groups of men and horses fought each other, and they just fought on the dock where they were moored that night.
In the middle of the night, the fire was soaring into the sky, shouting and shouting, which made people tremble.
This is a small wharf. Uncle and nephew of the Lu family have always been used to being domineering, so they drove away the other small ships and occupied the best position for the two large ships of the Lu family, for fear that someone would covet the goods of the Lu family. , and other ships are not allowed to approach, the boss is empty next to it, accounting for almost one-third of the pier.
This is just right under the wrong circumstances. Other ships just avoided it. The open water is just right for the ships to fight fiercely. As a result, only their family's ship was affected.
The Lu family's uncle and nephew were so frightened that they shivered and didn't have time to do anything. The two big boats caught fire, and in the chaos, people who didn't know which side jumped on the boat again tried to take advantage of the fire.
