Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

Chapter 180: Counterattack Horn

"Although it wasn't a major construction project, when you arranged for people to build the salt factory, the Sun family still had quite a few people working there, so they naturally heard some rumors."

Sun Miao was right. Since the Sun family and Qin Ming started cooperating, more and more people have been assigned here.

No matter what Qin Ming wanted to do, he could not escape the other party's eyes.

This made him a little unhappy.

It seems that when I have free time, I have to find a chance for Cao Chuan to think about how to do things more secretly.

Seeing Qin Ming lost in thought, Sun Miao continued:

"Is Xiao Pingzhang still collecting things recently?"

"No, they've cleared out the textile mill's inventory."

"I see. Then, do you want to go to Jiangnan and learn from them to grab most of the cloth in the market at once, and replace the Sun family as the dealer?"

"Do you have a way?"

Qin Ming's eyes gradually lit up.

If he could do as the other party said, this trip would not only bring a threat to the Xiao family.

Instead, they will ride directly on their heads!

"I can't say I have a way, but our Sun family still has some influence in Jiangnan. If you want, we can come forward to protect the owners of all the cloth shops and let them work for Your Highness from now on."

"But all of this has a prerequisite. We must severely damage the Xiao family's vitality and make them unable to take care of the major cloth shops."

Sun Miao has already explained the situation to Qin Ming.

Qin Ming no longer needs to think too much about these things.

"No problem, just do it."

"Ah."

Sun Miao nodded slowly.

Then they began to rush to produce refined salt.

During this period, Xiao Pingzhang, who suffered heavy losses in the textile factory, did not stop.

He did something that could be said to be a disaster!

After taking control of all the major cloth shops in Jiangnan, he freed up his hands and actually dumped the countless cloths in his hands directly into the major counties in Lingnan!

Each piece of cloth is only 10% of the original price!

Now, no one is selling it!

The Xiao family's actions are pure hooliganism!

All the cloth shops were cursing them, but they couldn't do anything about it.

This move almost destroyed Qin Ming's market...

At noon that day, Guan Yue hurriedly found Qin Ming with more than a dozen letters in her hand.

"Look, all the major cloth shops are in chaos right now. They took the goods, but now they can't sell them, so they've all written to us asking us to take back some of them."

Now it’s not just the major cloth shops that are under pressure.

There is also Qin Ming above them, so many people hope that Qin Ming will take action at this time to help everyone recover their losses.

"Can't retreat!"

Wan Shu also came over at this time and spoke in a firm tone.

Because the Lingnan Chamber of Commerce also has many cloth shops, and now they are all doing business with Qin Ming.

"How much can we afford? We're simply losing money right now. I've already issued a strict order within the Lingnan Chamber of Commerce. We can even compensate them for their losses, but if we withdraw, everything will be in jeopardy!"

Now they were all waiting eagerly for Qin Ming to speak.

Once Qin Ming gives in, a huge pressure will come pouring in!

When that time really comes, it won’t just be the major cloth shops.

Even the cloth in the Xiao family's hands would fall into Qin Ming's hands.

By then, Qin Ming would not be able to sell it at all, and it would be useless even if he bought it back at 10% of the price.

That's all!

"What if I were to take control of this business and not sell a single piece of cloth after I take it back, and just hold on until the price returns to normal?"

Qin Ming did not agree with Wan Shu's statement.

Guan Yue frowned and said:

"Then if we just hoard it, with nothing to sell, how long will it last and how much silver will it cost?"

If they hoard goods and only bring them in but not out, they won’t make any money.

But the major cloth shops need to be maintained, and the thousands of people in the textile factories also need to be maintained, so at that time I will have to pay for it myself.

The cost of keeping it is too high. How much money can they afford?

Waiting for prices to return seems to be a long way off.

This decision was too risky. Wan Shu and Guan Yue both felt that it was simply a pipe dream.

"It won't last long. The Xiao family won't be able to hold on for long either."

Qin Ming waved his hand slowly.

Seeing that he was really going to do this, Wan Shu's voice became a little more serious.

"You're crazy! I don't agree!"

Qin Ming stepped forward and suddenly said:

"You're right, but we are different."

"What's the difference?"

Wan Shu frowned, still not understanding all this.

There is obviously a better way, which is to distribute the pressure to the major cloth shops and the workers in the textile factories.

But Qin Ming wants to accept it all and bear everything?

She doesn't understand.

Qin Ming took a deep breath and said with a smile:

"You are a businessman who values ​​profit, but I am the King of Qin, and Lingnan is my fiefdom."

"The cloth shop and textile factory are almost collapsing. If I don't protect them, who else can?"

"The first and foremost thing is not a conflict of interests, it never has been."

……

Wan Shu was silent.

Guan Yue's beautiful eyes flickered as she leaned gently against Qin Ming, her thoughts naturally self-evident.

She wants to support Qin Ming.

After a long time, Wan Shu said:

"Some of the cloth from the cloth shops under the Lingnan Chamber of Commerce will be returned tomorrow. We will then send it together with the cloth shops in other counties. If you can't accept such a large quantity, please let me know immediately."

"Do not worry."

Qin Ming smiled and nodded, looking extremely calm.

This made Wan Shu feel more at ease.

"I am leaving."

Wan Shu, feeling a little unhappy, walked away on the stairs with heavy steps.

"If the people of Lingnan knew you thought this way, they would definitely thank you."

After Wan Shu left, Guan Yue leaned on Qin Ming's shoulder and spoke softly.

"Hey, isn't he handsome?"

Qin Ming held the beauty in his arms and teased her.

This time, Guan Yue was not arrogant, but said seriously:

"It would be great if the world were full of people like you."

"It's impossible for everyone to be like me, but we can try to have more people like me."

"Ah."

After sending Guan Yue away, Chang Baishan followed into the room and said to Qin Ming:

"Your Highness, you can't just be so cool. Now that so much is at stake, what are we going to do?"

"The Nanyang caravan is back. I'm going there in the next two days."

Qin Ming was actually a little panicked, but his face was still worth something.

He planned to let the Nanyang merchant caravan swallow up a batch of them and then make plans for himself later.

"How much stuff should I take?"

"About 50,000 pieces of cloth."

"what?!"

This is the total number of their more than a dozen warehouses. Even Chang Baishan widened his eyes when he heard this number.

"Are you sure? If we can sell this batch of goods this time, our pressure will definitely be much less, and we may even make a profit."

Chang Baishan spoke with some excitement.

But at this time, Qin Ming waved his hand and said:

"What a ridiculous profit! Selling at 30% off the cost price!"

"Um!??"
