When the Kang family contacted Houjin and Nurhachi and his son to resell ordnance, the Qiao family had no idea at first. After learning the truth, many Shanxi merchants had already boarded the pirate ship and could not get off.
It's okay to resell ordnance, and it's okay to get on a pirate ship, but the Kang family shouldn't hide it from the Qiao family. The feeling of being forcibly tied onto a pirate ship is really uncomfortable.
What happened before, coupled with the repeated losses and obstacles now, Qiao Liuyun felt that he should reconsider his relationship with the Kang family.
Kang Zhendai's tone was gloomy, but Qiao Liuyun had no intention of arguing. He stood up and cupped his hands hastily, "Second Young Master, it seems that there is no need for us to continue talking. Qiao will leave now."
Seeing Qiao Liuyun turn around and leave, Kang Zhendai felt a little regretful. But he couldn't bear to say soft words, so he could only watch Qiao Liuyun walk away.
Qiao Liuyun walked out of the Kang family courtyard, her face instantly turned cold. She looked back at the familiar door plaque, sneered and shook her head.
The Kang family is really getting worse from generation to generation.
.....
In the Qiao family, when Qiao Liuyun came back, he found two guests sitting in the living room. One of them was Zhangjiakou guard Hei Yunlong. Next to him, there was a young man in a blue robe.
Qiao Liuyun took a few more glances and quickly recognized it. Isn't this Tie Mo?
Why are they two here?
Qiao Liuyun quickly raised his hands and said: "I don't know if the two generals are coming, but they are far away to greet you, but they still hope to see Haihan."
"It doesn't matter, we decided to come to Mr. Qiao's house on the spur of the moment and didn't notify us in advance. What's more, your tea is really delicious, so we can't say we're being lazy!" Hei Yunlong joked and smiled.
Qiao Liuyun apologized and sat down across from him. Looking at the two familiar and unfamiliar garrison generals across from him, he didn't know what to talk about for a while.
After a moment of silence, it was Tie Mo who broke the awkward atmosphere first, "Brother Qiao, you must understand why Tie and Yunlong are here, right? Tie is a straightforward person and speaks straightforwardly."
Qiao Liuyun had some thoughts in his mind, but decided to listen to Tie Mo first, "If Tie Shoubei has anything to say, it's okay to say it. Qiao is all ears."
"That's what Tie Mo said." Tie Mo put down the tea in his hand and his expression became more serious, "The Qiao family has spent a lot of effort in Zhangbei. Is it true that Mr. Qiao doesn't feel sorry for him at all?"
"This..." Qiao Liuyun looked embarrassed and really didn't know how to answer. Zhang Bei's land reclamation required real financial resources and manpower. In order to open up wasteland, the Qiao family invested nearly 100,000 taels of silver, but now they have nothing.
Return, can you not feel distressed?
But I said I feel sorry for you, can you return the land and food to me?
Tie Mou pursed his lips and smiled, "Looking at Mr. Qiao's expression, he must be feeling distressed. Mr. Tie has a suggestion here. Mr. Qiao may wish to consider it."
"Young Master Qiao must also know that a few months ago, the Chang and Cao families started planning to build Duofuhao. Now there are semicolons in Zhangbei, Zhangjiakou and Urge. In the future, they plan to build semicolons in the capital, but now
The funds at hand are limited. As we all know, the Qiao family is at the top of the list in the land of Sanjin. I wonder if Mr. Qiao has any idea of joining in? "
Of course, Qiao Liuyun knew about Duofuhao. He not only knew about it, but also studied the business model of Duofuhao. It can be said that Duofuhao borrowed from the previous bank model, but it was simpler and more convenient than the bank.
The ratio is not too high, which greatly solves the trouble of merchants transporting gold and silver to different places.
To transport gold and silver, you need to hire someone to look after it, which is a big expense. If you don't hire people, if the gold and silver is robbed along the way, nothing will be left.
The emergence of Duofuhao has solved this kind of trouble. You only need to pay a small amount of money to withdraw money from another place safely and worry-free, which is quite cost-effective.
Qiao Liuyun himself is a successful businessman. He can see at a glance the unlimited business opportunities behind the Duofu Hao. He can't see it now, but in a few years, the Duofu Hao will definitely see a surge in profits and become the most valuable business in the Ming Dynasty.
Money business.
Many Shanxi businessmen are interested in buying shares in Duofuhao, but that is the golden knot jointly created by several Shanxi businessmen headed by Chang and Cao. How can others easily get involved? If others buy more shares, the Chang family and the Cao family will
Of course they wouldn't be happy with less dividends.
It can be said that in the land of Sanjin, if there is no shortage of money, the first one is Duofuhao. Now Tie Mo said that Duofuhao has limited funds. Isn't this funny?
Qiao Liuyun knew very well that this was a piece of fat thrown by Tie Mo.
Of course he was excited, but once he joined the Duofu, it would mean a complete break with the Kang family. The alliance between the Kang family and the Qiao family for more than fifty years had to make Qiao Liuyun hesitate.
Qiao Liuyun couldn't make up his mind for a moment, but Tie Mo said something again in a leisurely manner, completely breaking the defense in Qiao Liuyun's heart.
"Brother Qiao, do you think the affairs between the Kang family and Huang Taiji are really so secret that others don't know about it? If nothing else, just in our Zhangjiakou area, a lot of people know about it, right? If the court doesn't ask about it now, then
I have no time to care about it, but one day the score will be settled, how will Brother Qiao and the Qiao family deal with each other then?"
Tie Mo shrugged and said with a mocking smile: "Or maybe Brother Qiao thinks that Hou Jin can take over the Central Plains in the future and take over the Ming Dynasty? If this is the case, Brother Qiao doesn't have to worry."
As soon as these words came out, Qiao Liuyun's face immediately darkened, and the panic in his eyes could no longer be concealed.
It has to be said that Tie Mo's words hit the nail on the head. Tie Mo knew that according to normal development, the Jurchens would take over the Central Plains, but Qiao Liuyun didn't know that.
These days, if you say that Hou Jin could replace the Ming Dynasty and establish the Qing Dynasty in Manchuria, you must be crazy. Qiao Liuyun naturally did not believe that Hou Jin could take over the Central Plains, so he immediately panicked.
After the Jin Dynasty declined, there was no way it could defeat the Ming Dynasty. Once the domestic situation stabilized and the people were at peace, it was time for the imperial court to settle the score. What would happen to the Shanxi merchants who followed the Kang family?
I'm afraid it will be better if my family is not confiscated and my family is exterminated by then.
Tie Mo was very satisfied with the effect in front of him, but Hei Yunlong squinted his eyes and his face trembled.
Brother Tie looks honest and honest, but in fact he has a dark heart. He keeps threatening people about the Kang family and Huang Taiji, but he never mentions his business with Dorgon.
Of course, Heiyunlong would not be so stupid as to cause trouble for his own people. After all, he could make a lot of profits by reselling those junk products.
Who doesn’t like war horses and money? Unless he is a fool!
...
It didn't take long for Qiao Liuyun to make up his mind. He raised his head and said with a smile: "Since Tie Shouwei warmly invites you, what else can Qiao say? Duofuhao is a gold nugget that makes money. This kind of good thing, Qiao
How can you refuse?"
"Haha, then Tie Mou welcomes Brother Qiao in advance on behalf of others!"
"Haha, Tie Shouwei is so polite!"
Qiao Liuyun asked someone to prepare a dinner, and the three of them chatted happily during the dinner.
However, things were different in the Kang family compound. Not long after Qiao Liuyun left in anger, Kang Zhendai welcomed another guest, his eldest brother Kang Zhenyue.
