After all, the second lady of the Chu family is only a woman. Although she has a vicious mind, it is okay to let her do things inside the Chu family. It is not enough to see it outside. It is still necessary to have Ding Kaishan hanging out in Tongzhou for decades. The old fox should come.

Ding Kaishan pondered for a while and said, "According to what you said, this Chu Xiu's current situation has become a reality, and it took only a few things to completely establish his position in the Chu family. The birth of a son is not the eldest son, and it is not too Chu. Zong Guang's love, facing this Chu Xiu, can't take advantage of the Chu family, so I only have one idea, I can only attack this Chu Xiu through the outside."

The second lady sighed and said, "But I'm just a woman, and I still have some weight in the Chu family's house. I can't get involved in external affairs at all, so I'm here to beg you."

Ding Kaishan stroked his long beard and said, "There is always a way, I just remembered that the caravan under Chu Xiu recently received a big deal.

One of my apprentices is now at the **** bureau. He happened to meet the Chu family's caravan when he went to Yan State last time. I heard that the Chu family's caravan reached a deal with a big local businessman in Yan State. The agreement was to acquire the refined ore produced by the Chu family in the Nanshan mining area at a high price, and even a large amount of the deposit had been paid. "

The second lady said with a bit of jealousy: "This Chu Xiu has been like a fortune since he came back from the Nanshan mining area. He has encountered all kinds of good things."

Ding Kaishan said with a straight face: "It's not luck, it's Chu Xiu's ability. Although he is competing with his son for the position of the heir of the family, you should learn from him.

This business has nothing to do with Na Chuxiu. He has long since left the caravan, and it is completely handled by the managers of the caravan. The manager of the caravan negotiated this business himself.

Your Chu family used to manage the caravan and only sent some monthly money to those caravan people, but now this Chu Xiu is willing to give half of the income to everyone in the caravan, don't underestimate this half, it is It is because of this half-percentage that these caravan talents are so active and desperate.

The caravan earns more, and the members of the caravan can get the same amount of silver.

So those caravan stewards don't need Chu Xiu's supervision, they spend their days studying how to improve their profits, and those caravan servants don't need to be urged to work. Get more money.

People in your Chu family may not have noticed these things, but you don't know that in Tongzhou Mansion, they all say that the younger generation of your Chu family, the only one who can show it is this Chu Xiu. "

The second lady's face turned red and white, she still couldn't accept that Chu Xiu was so good.

Ding Kaishan said with a smile: "But this Chu Xiu is useless no matter how good it is. The child is my grandson, and of course I want to stand by him. Then the caravan under Chu Xiu has negotiated such a big deal. If What's wrong? If the ore cannot be delivered on time, not only will the deposit have to be paid to the other side, but even the reputation of his caravan will be ruined.

There are countless caravans between Weijun and Yan Kingdom, and no one is willing to do business with a discredited caravan.

The most profitable income that Chu Xiu holds is the caravan. Without the caravan, you should be very clear about what his position in Chu Xiu will be. "

The second lady frowned and said, "It still won't work. Nanshan mining area will deliver a batch of ore every month. Now, although Chu Xiu is no longer in charge, he is also a member of the Chu family. I didn't mind going there, Master, and it would delay the Chu family's business."

Ding Kaishan shook his head somewhat resentfully and said, "Daughter, how did I tell you back then? Don't stare at the Chu family's one-third of an acre of land, and be more open-minded.

Who asked you to hold down those ores? Before you deliver those ore to Chu Xiu, you sell them to others, isn't that the best of both worlds? "

The second lady hesitated: "Nanshan mining area produces refined ores, and if the ore is sold at the highest price every month, there are as many as tens of thousands of taels.

In the past, my Chu family kept some of these ores as spares, and sold the others as weapons. Now who can eat so many ores in one go?

If the price is too low, Chu Xiu finds out, stabs the master, and damages the interests of the Chu family. This is the master's bottom line. "

It's true that Chu Zongguang didn't care much about the affairs of the Chu family these years, but Chu Zongguang also had a bottom line, that is, no one, including his own son, could harm the interests of the Chu family, otherwise they would definitely be severely punished.

It is precisely because of this bottom line that although the Chu family has not developed over the years, it has not declined much.

Ding Kaishan shook his head and said, "Who told you to sell it cheaply? Just sell it at the market price. Then Chu Xiu sold this batch of ore to a big businessman in the country of Yan. He might make double the profit, but How much money can he give to the Chu family? It's less than one third of the sky.

After you sold this batch of ore, you gave all the profits to the Chu family and kept nothing for yourself. In this way, the Chu family did not lose, and you did not lose, so Chu Xiu was the only one who lost. "

"Who are you going to sell this batch of ore to?"

Ding Kaishan smiled and said: "With your father here, with my personal connections, are you afraid that this ore can't be sold? The third son of the Li family is my disciple, and I can help you connect and let the Li family eat it. The next batch of ore.

The Li family is much better at forging weapons than your Chu family, but they have no minerals. If the Chu family is willing to sell it, even if it is a little more than the market price, I believe the Li family will agree. "

When the second lady heard this, she shook her head and said, "The Li family can't do it. When my Chu family first established a foothold in Tongzhou Mansion, it was the Li family who had the most trouble with us. If the ore was sold to the Li family, the master would be different. If you agree, let's not talk about it, the rest of the Chu family will not agree."

Ding Kaishan waved his hand casually and said, "You think too much, you have been so indecisive since you were a child, how can you be afraid of wolves and tigers later?

The Li family did feel sorry for you when your Chu family first established their foothold in Tongzhou Mansion, but that was all in the past. After so many years, the old man of the Li family was already dead, and your Chu family was not too. No revenge.

So you don't have to be afraid of this matter at all. As long as Chu Zongguang doesn't speak up, no one in the Chu family will be held accountable for this matter. Anyway, the Chu family didn't suffer in the end, right? "

Seeing that the second lady was still a little hesitant, Ding Kaishan's eyes showed a bright light and said: "Otherwise, let's do this first, you sell the ore to me, and I will sell it to Li San Gongzi, this matter has nothing to do with you. already."

The second lady thought for a while, Ding Kaishan's words seemed to have some truth, anyway, her father couldn't cheat her, so the second lady directly said: "If this is the case, then I will trouble you."

Ding Kaishan nodded and said, "By the way, how much refined ore does your Chu family's Nanshan mining area produce in a month?"

The second lady thought for a while and said, "I'm a woman, so I don't know much about this, but normally it should be around 50,000 jin."

Ding Kaishan was a little surprised and said, "According to the highest market price, 50,000 kilograms of refined ore is enough to sell for 50,000 taels of silver. In this way, your Chu family's most profitable business should be this mine."

The second lady shook her head with a wry smile and said, "It's not that easy. It's easy to die in the mines. Every year our Chu family buys a large number of prisoners from the government.

Also, these ores must be refined once before they can be used. 50,000 kilograms of refined ore requires at least 500,000 kilograms of refined ore. The cost is too high, so the profit is actually not too much. "

Ding Kaishan showed a thoughtful expression, UU reading www.uukanshu.com said to the second lady: "Okay, this matter will be handed over to me, wait for you to send someone to deliver those refined ores to me. That's all, then I'll give you more than fifty thousand taels of silver.

Don't worry, although Chu Zongguang is not good enough, I can't let you marry into the Chu family in vain. This Chu family will be my grandson sooner or later! "

The second lady left happily. Compared with the eldest lady, her only advantage was the background in the Tongzhou mansion.

With such a powerful foreign aid as Ding Kaishan, what if the eldest lady is from a big family? The family behind her is not in Tongzhou.

Early the next morning, the servants of the Chu family pulled over a truckload of ores and released them into the Kaishan Martial Arts Hall.

Ding Kaishan looked at the ore and asked the manager, "How many kilograms of ore did you send?"

The steward glanced at the booklet and said, "It's 57,000 jin."

Ding Kaishan raised his eyebrows and said, "Go and change it, change it to 52,000 jin."

The steward was stunned for a moment, then he understood what Ding Kaishan meant, and said with a wry smile: "Master Ding, I lost 5,000 kilograms of refined ore, and I can't explain it when I go back."

Ding Kaishan waved his hand and said, "You also know my identity, so you should also know who told you about this matter. Is it so difficult to change the accounts? Remember, don't talk nonsense when you go back!"

The steward nodded quickly, and then he remembered that this Ding Pavilion owner is the father of the second lady. The second lady wants to secretly get some benefits for her father, but of course she won't make it public, and he naturally doesn't have to give it to anyone. explained.

Thinking like this, the steward changed it directly, changing the 57,000 catties of refined ore to 52,000 catties, and Ding Kaishan was satisfied and let them all leave.
