Wei Mansion!
"What? The Mo Family Village got another 300,000 strings of cash!"
Wei Changde was shocked when he heard Manager Wei's report!
"It's just a contract. The 300,000 strings of cash haven't arrived yet. But with the reputation of these big businessmen, it's only a matter of time." Manager Wang said bitterly. In this era of business, reputation was very important. Since they had promised something, they would definitely keep it.
Wei Changde closed his eyes in pain and shook his head. Even if the 300,000 strings of cash hadn't arrived, as long as the news was spread, the grain alliance would naturally collapse.
So far, Wei and Du had suffered a crushing defeat. What was even more shameful was that the two families were defeated by the Mo Family Village alone even though they had joined forces.
The first time they got nearly 100,000 strings of cash, plus the 100,000 strings of cash brought by Xu Jie from Luoyang, plus the 300,000 strings of cash this time. In a short period of time, the Mo Family Village had gathered nearly 500,000 strings of cash. Their defeat was not unjustified at all.
Soon, the bad news came. The Zhang Family Village was the first to change sides!
The Zhang Family Village was not a big grain merchant in Chang 'an City, but it was a big grain consumer in Chang' an City. The famous Zhang Family Turbid Wine in Chang 'an City came from the Zhang Family Village. Because of its low price, it directly occupied the low-end wine market in Chang' an City.
The Zhang Family Turbid Wine had a large sales volume, so naturally, they consumed a lot of grain. Every year, they needed to buy a large amount of grain to make wine. This time, the Zhang Family Village had a deep grudge against the increase in grain prices. The Zhang Family Turbid Wine originally sold in large quantities, so the profit was low. The increase in grain prices directly increased the cost of the Zhang Family Turbid Wine, and there was even a possibility that they would lose money.
Therefore, when the Wei and Du families called for a boycott of grain, the Zhang Family Village could be said to have responded positively.
However, the Mo Family Village repeatedly received huge amounts of money to buy grain, which directly made the Zhang Family Village lose hope of winning. Especially when the price of Xie Qianchou and Stuffy Horse was spread, the Zhang Family Village was even more excited. The price was more than a hundred times that of the Zhang Family Turbid Wine, which made them feel embarrassed.
"The Mo Family Village people are really black-hearted!" The village head of the Zhang Family Village was eating in his house. He took a sip of the Turbid Wine produced in his village and said with jealousy.
At this moment, a villager ran in panic and reported, "Village head! Village head Li from the Mo Family Village Village is here! "
"Village head Li? Li Yi, that old bastard! I don't want to see him! "The village head of Zhang Village blew his beard and glared.
The Zhang Family Village and the Mo Family Village were both in the south of the city. They usually met each other frequently, so naturally, they knew each other.
"Hahaha, Brother Zhang, don't regret it. I brought good wine to apologize." Li Yi's hearty voice came from outside the Village Head Courtyard.
"You don't even want to see good wine!" Village Chief Zhang said angrily.
Li Yi stood outside the courtyard and said regretfully, "That's a pity. This is such a good Xie Qianchou."
"Xie Qianchou?"
Village head Zhang felt as if a kitten was scratching his heart. That was a good wine that could be sold for 500 grams of money. He couldn't sit still anymore. He rushed out of the door and grabbed the bottle of Xie Qianchou from Li Yi who was about to pour out the opened bottle.
Back in the house, Village Chief Zhang eagerly poured himself a cup of wine and drank it in one gulp.
"What do you think?" Li Yi followed him into the room with a smirk.
"Peerless wine!" Village Chief Zhang sighed. The Zhang Family Village had been brewing wine for generations. Naturally, he had been immersed in the wine all his life. He had drunk a lot of wine in his life. Naturally, he could tell the benefits of this wine.
"Don't think that this wine can make me calm down. This time, my Zhang Family Village is in big trouble because of you." Village Chief Zhang drank the wine and immediately scolded. If the price of grain increased by two coins, the Zhang Family Village's wine would definitely be affected the most.
"No, I'm here to apologize." Li Yi smiled apologetically.
"Apologize? How do you want to apologize? "Village Chief Zhang's tone softened a little.
"The Mo Family Village will increase the price by 30% and reserve 1000 big jars of the Zhang Family Village's wine." Li Yi said.
"Really?" Village Chief Zhang suddenly stood up. A big jar of wine was more than 50 kilograms. 1000 jars was not a small number. It was the Zhang Family Village's annual production.
"Yes, and the orders will only increase in the future!" Li Yi added.
Village Chief Zhang's breath suddenly stopped. If this was the case, the Zhang Family Village could make a whole year's profit with this deal.
"Is the Xie Qianchou made from the Zhang Family Village's wine?" Village Chief Zhang thought. Hearing so many orders, he immediately knew the Mo Family Village's plan.
The Mo Family Village had just released the Xie Qianchou and Stuffy Horse, and there were a lot of orders. It was impossible for the Mo Family Village to complete all the orders. They could only buy the Zhang Family Village's wine and use it to make wine.
Li Yi shook his head and said: "Of course not. The Xie Qianchou is the secret recipe of the Mo Family Village, but Stuffy Horse can be brewed with the Zhang Family Village's wine."
The biggest feature of Stuffy Horse was its fierceness. As long as it was pure, the Zhang Family Village's wine was the most suitable as it cost the least.
"Unfortunately, the Zhang Family Village doesn't have much grain. We can't make so much wine!" Village Chief Zhang shook his head. The rising price of grain caused the cost to increase. The Zhang Family Village couldn't buy enough grain to make wine.
"Since we don't have much grain, we can buy more! The Mo Family Village can pay half of the deposit. "Li Yi tempted.
The Mo Family Village had enough cash now, so they didn't care about the deposit.
"You want the Zhang Family Village to be the first to collect grain?" Village Chief Zhang instantly understood Li Yi's plan. If the Zhang Family Village wanted to get the big order of the Mo Family Village, the only way was to buy grain. But that would offend the Wei and Du families.
Li Yi said, "The Mo Family Village is about to earn 300,000 strings of cash. The Grain Trade Alliance will collapse sooner or later. Even if the Zhang Family Village doesn't collect grain first, the order of 1,000 jars is still valid. But if the Zhang Family Village collects grain first, the Mo Family Village will give the Zhang Family Village the method of filtering the wine in return."
"Good! The Zhang Family Village will be the first to collect grain. "Village Chief Zhang agreed to the Mo Family Village's request in less than three breaths. The main reason why the Zhang Family Village's wine was cheap was that the wine was turbid and looked bad. If they could get the filtering technology of the Mo Family Village, the biggest shortcoming would be solved.
"Congratulations, the Zhang Family Village's wine can be renamed as Zhang Family Village's wine." Li Yi said with a smile.
This was the best opportunity for the Zhang Family Village. If they missed it, the Zhang Family Village would regret it for the rest of their lives. It was known that there were more than one wine-making village like the Zhang Family Village around Chang 'an City.
"I have brought the deposit and the filtering equipment. Village Chief Zhang, you just need to sign this contract." Li Yi took out the contract he had prepared.
Village Chief Zhang was stunned. The filtering equipment had been brought here. That was to say, the filtering equipment was originally prepared for the Zhang Family Village's wine.
"Nonsense, if I don't filter it in your Zhang Family Village, do I have to filter it again in the Mo Family Village?" Li Yi said angrily.
"You old bastard, how dare you trick me!" Village Chief Zhang was furious.
Suddenly, the Zhang Family Village was in chaos. However, Village Chief Zhang didn't mean to break the contract. After all, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the Zhang Family Village.
The Zhang Family Village was the first to collect grain, and the price was seven coins per jar.
