The Ming Dynasty’s Prodigal Son - Chapter 1734

[1734. Chapter 1649 The show begins]

Since there is no way out, we have no choice but to fight to the end.

The Qi family began to buy frantically.

In fact, it didn’t take long for someone to realize something was wrong.

The first to be aware are, after all, the big players.

They clearly felt that people suddenly began to buy the land they had listed.

None of these people are fuel-efficient.

Just when others were still realizing it, the latest news was grasped by them.

The Qi family began to buy land like crazy. They took countless amounts of money and went around to buy land.

When the gentry heard this, they immediately stamped their feet.

The Qi family sold it first, but now the price has dropped to the bottom. Where did they get so much money and they are looking for purchases everywhere.

As a result, many families began to flock to Yahang and withdraw the land they had listed for sale.

In the tooth shop, transactions are going on like crazy, but sometimes, the seller refuses to sell after the deal has just been concluded.

I feel pity for the ordinary people. When they heard that the land was plummeting, they had to sell their land to stop losses. They were still ignorant. They only heard that some people were willing to buy land, so they happily talked to the people who bought the land. Signed the contract.

But prices have begun to rise slightly.

Of course, ordinary people are naturally not that sensitive and cannot react so quickly!

“Second Master, Second Master… I have found out that the Qi family’s money is not their own at all. They borrowed it from Xishan Bank. Now they are buying land everywhere. How much land is there for seven or eight taels of silver? “They took as much as they could, and all the children of the Qi family from every prefecture and county went there, and they refused to let anyone go.”

A long follower hurried to the Zhao Mansion.

The Zhao family is the largest wealthy family in Zhenjiang, but Nanjing is lively because although most of the land is in Zhenjiang, they have already purchased a separate courtyard in Nanjing, and the family has lived here for a long time.

When Mr. Zhao heard the news, his face twitched: “How much land have we sold at a low price before?”

“More than seven thousand acres. When the young master heard the news, he immediately removed all the land that was listed for sale. Many of the lands that were originally sold were The land that was to be sold was not sold, otherwise…”

“This surname is Qi…” Mr. Zhao’s face was as gloomy as if he could drip ink, and he looked like he was grinding his teeth.

He felt that he had been cheated. Now it seemed that the Qi family had sold off before just to make the land market collapse. However, they had secretly prepared a large amount of money and went crazy when the price fell to the bottom. acquisition.

Mr. Zhao Er was very angry, but he still asked calmly: “How did they borrow money from Xishan?”

The Changsui looked at the angry look of his master and said quickly: “If they only have land and land, You can mortgage it and lend money at any time.”

Mr. Zhao put his hands behind his back and paced back and forth, looking a little anxious.

His eldest brother was an official in Beijing, so he was almost entirely responsible for the Zhao family’s business.

Nanjing is now in such chaos, like a pot of porridge, that he even has the idea of returning to his hometown in Zhenjiang.

But he also thought that if there was a military disaster in the south of the Yangtze River, Zhenjiang, as an important town, would bear the brunt. The imperial court would definitely take Zhenjiang to suppress the rebellion, so he simply stayed in Nanjing.

“How much is the current land price?”

“Between eighty and ninety liang… The people of the Qi family are very smart. Although it is a large-scale acquisition, the acquisition is kept secret, so… many people have not reacted yet, What’s more… everyone is really scared. If you are worried about keeping the land in your hands, it is better to exchange it for real money. Yaxing accepted the entrustment, but directly signed the contract and delivered the land deed, so… this transaction is extremely difficult. Hurry…”

At this moment, Mr. Zhao opened his eyes and said urgently: “Go to the bank! We can’t let the Qi family eat alone.”

At this point, Mr. Zhao has already returned. It seems that this was a premeditated harvest. The knife had obviously been sharpened long ago. Not only did they want to buy the land of those small people at a low price, but even the Zhao family was taken away at a low price. More than seven thousand acres.

More than seven thousand acres…

This guy named Qi is really ruthless.

Mr. Zhao Er is a very shrewd man. Since he took charge of the family business, he has made the Zhao family prosperous.

Isn’t the current situation very clear?

Whoever has money can acquire the land at the lowest price and make huge profits from it. This is what the Qi family does. However, they are all big gentry and have plenty of land and real estate. They even have piles of them in warehouses. Countless food and cash are their weaknesses.

But…

the Qi family can borrow money, and so can the Zhao family.

Because it won’t take long for the price of land to skyrocket. By then, where will there be land worth seven or eight taels? If it goes back to before the plummet, the price may even rise to thirty taels, and it may even return to the original price. Fifty taels.

Thinking of this, Mr. Zhao Er couldn’t sit still.

Not to be missed.

A big family like this can enjoy prosperity and wealth for more than ten generations, not just by sitting back and enjoying the success.

Without enough information, enough contacts, not even enough crisp methods, and without superhuman vision, we would never be where we are today.

When Mr. Zhao Er arrived at Xishan Bank… he bumped into many old acquaintances.

These people were all local celebrities in Jiangnan. When they met each other, they couldn’t help but greet each other, but they didn’t explain their purpose of coming, but smiled tacitly to each other.

This made Mr. Zhao Er even more aware that next… the land was going to skyrocket, and now, everyone with strength came to Xishan Bank.

What are you doing at the bank? Not a loan? The purpose of borrowing is to purchase land, and while more people are buying it, less and less land is being sold. Even Mr. Zhao Er has never read The Wealth of Nations, but he knows that next… the land will have a price but no market. Who will seize it? Whoever seizes the opportunity can buy the cheap land that was taken advantage of later. If anyone is too late, from now on, I am afraid that among these countless families, they will have to settle for the bottom.

The land of the gentry was returned in full, and the land of the common people was purchased at a low price.

Mr. Zhao Er has probably understood the Qi family’s routine. This is actually the same as the previous gameplay, and there is no essential difference.

Mr. Zhao Er hurriedly met with Wang Jinyuan. He went straight to the point and loaned him two million taels of silver.

He had already prepared the mortgage deeds and house deeds. Wang Jinyuan seemed to have been prepared and quickly ordered someone to lend money.

In the past two days, he has received dozens of people who came to borrow money.

These people all have a strong tone. Of course, they are also rich. The least they can borrow is hundreds of thousands of taels of silver. They have almost no other requirements. The only requirement is to lend money quickly.

Faced with such a big customer, Wang Jinyuan is very hands-on.

For Xishan Bank, this is a hugely profitable deal, and anyway… there is no loss at all.

As for the risks.

Haha…

Wang Jinyuan took advantage of a gap to take a leisurely sip of tea and crossed his legs.

The most important thing about following the young master is the stimulation, which he could never feel before.

Next…the fun is about to begin.

…………

In the city of Nanjing, it seemed as if the sky had suddenly changed.

Even dental shops in various places have noticed that the market has begun to change dramatically.

On the one hand, a large number of lands have begun to remove their signs, and the owners of the land have told them that they are no longer for sale, no matter how much money they have.

On the other hand, many people came to the door, waving countless cash, demanding to buy land immediately, how much… how much… some land was even offered for ten taels, eleven taels, and they didn’t ask about the price of the land. Regardless of the quality of the land, it will be delivered immediately.

All of a sudden…

land prices started to rise.

In Nanjing, in Zhenjiang, in Hangzhou, and even in Nanchang, hundreds of miles away.

This land in the south of the Yangtze River is full of people like this. The land in Nanjing was the first to rise, and then other prefectures and counties also began to rise slightly.

Everyone still doesn’t understand what’s going on.

The countless amounts of land quickly began to trade, with prices rising by 50% in one day.

The price has reached thirteen taels…

Qi Zhiyuan is already crazy with joy.

He was the fastest to get the land, and the price for the land was also the lowest. The land he got for an average of eight or nine taels of silver, in one day, based on the valuation, he was afraid that he would have made hundreds of thousands of taels of silver for nothing.

This… is just the beginning.

…………

Purple Mountain.

Although Emperor Hongzhi killed someone, no one dared to enter the Xiaoling Mausoleum to take the person.

Therefore, life in the mountains is naturally unpretentious and boring.

Emperor Hongzhi sent countless edicts every day, and it seemed that he had begun to make arrangements for Jiangnan affairs.

And Fang Jifan also stayed in the Xiangdian where he lived every day, seeming to be planning something.

Occasionally, Emperor Hongzhi would call Fang Jifan for tea.

Emperor Hongzhi could not help but sigh with emotion when the emperor and his ministers sat down.

Fang Jifan saw Emperor Hongzhi’s preoccupied look and said, “Your Majesty… don’t worry. When the British Duke arrives, this Nanjing scoundrel will die without a burial place.”

Emperor Hongzhi sighed, shook his head and said: ” What I am worried about are just a few thieves. To me, these are just a group of clowns. It’s just… When I went to Jiangnan and saw all kinds of things, I realized that although Jiangnan is rich, the people are still… It has been hard, and there have been many disadvantages over the past hundred years. It is not easy to clean up this situation. Look at this Purple Mountain…”

He took a deep look at Fang Jifan and said: “The imperial court has clearly ordered that people are not allowed to enter the Forbidden City to poach and illegally log wood. , this is where the tomb of Emperor Taizu Gao is located. Anyone who enters the forbidden area will be severely punished. But so what, the day before yesterday, the Xiaoling Guards arrested seven people, and yesterday, the Xiaoling Guards arrested three more. I personally met these poachers and illegal logging people. I expected them to be thieves with deer-headed and rat-like eyes, but they were just ordinary ordinary people with honest faces. They succeeded the vassal… They burst into tears and said that they could not live anymore. Why… The imperial court has done so many good things and has corrected so many ills, but there are still people who have gone through such hardships that they even…risked beheading to enter the forbidden area of Xiaoling?”
