After Ding Jun left, Zhao Song told Cai Qin a few words before slowly saying goodbye.

This trip costs two to three hundred thousand taels, which is worth his appearance.

Later, Cai Qin also went out and went to Biezhuang to meet his father.

Cai Guang couldn't help but sigh when he learned that Ding Jun had left.

"Dad, don't sigh. Next we have to sell the 100,000 donkeys that are about to be put on the market."

Cai Qin does not regret this decision at all. It is rare to have such a big opportunity to make money. It would be a pity for the Cai family not to take advantage of it.

He dared to do this entirely because the Cai family had other big buyers and patrons. The most important thing was that they could sell the donkeys directly to Pingzhou!

Cai Guang sighed, he really couldn't help his father when he was older.

He has been sick for a while now, and this feeling is even worse.

If it had been before, when he was still strong and healthy, he would have stopped this, but it was a pity that he was unable to do so.

The son was very happy after settling the contract with Ding Jun, but Cai Guang was not so optimistic.

This matter was solved too easily.

That's all, let's look at what happens next. In the worst case, it's just a lesson.

Next, Ding Jun went to several large donkey owners who had signed contracts, and almost all of them defaulted on the contract.

Without exception, these big donkey owners have all got in touch with Zhao Song. They only need to pay a sum of money to use his name to reject Ding Jun. How could they not do such a cost-effective deal?

Although Zhao Song is taking away nearly 25% of the profit from the contract, isn't there still 75% left?

It can be said that in this round, Ding Jun’s fruit was picked by Zhao Song!

Only one of these big donkey owners was willing to fulfill the contract, but this family was not as good as the Cai family. They only signed a contract with Ding Jun for 20,000 donkeys.

Ding Jun was unassuming when he arrived in Zhuozhou, and even more quietly when he left.

This matter was not honorable to a family like the Cai family. Zhao Song made a fortune without making any announcement about it.

The only thing they were worried about was Ding Jun. If he went out to spread the word, they would be embarrassed for a while.

But they waited and waited. I wonder what Ding Jun's psychology was, why he didn't publicize it? Is this admission? And then decided to take this hidden loss?

Jiang Boya vaguely noticed something was wrong. After careful inspection, he couldn't help but shake his head. Zhao Song was not hiding in secret, and if he dared to do this, Zhao Minglou must have known it, but he just turned a blind eye.

Grand Governor, Zhao Minglou has a poor view of the overall situation, is too selfish, and is not persistent enough in his actions. He is really not qualified for the position of Zhuozhou County Governor.

Zhao Minglou did not know anything about what Zhao Song did.

He tacitly allowed his cousin to do this because his cousin was right when he said that with his brother-in-law gone, he would not be able to break Pingzhou's situation against Zhuozhou.

When the song ends and everyone goes away, he probably won't be able to do well, so it is better to take advantage of this moment to realize his power, even if it is for the Zhao family. Take advantage of this opportunity and make as much money as you can.

Zhao Song told Zhao Minglou that in three or four months at most, the Cai family would be able to sell all their donkeys, and then he would be able to return to Chang'an with a large sum of money.

A conservative estimate is that the Zhao family will earn at least two to three million taels in this wave.

The price of donkeys in Zhuozhou has skyrocketed, driving almost everyone involved crazy.

Anhe Pharmacy is also waiting. In more than a month, Zhou Yi will deliver the goods.

Judging from the current donkey price, the other party definitely wants to exercise the right to cancel the transaction and lose the previous 60,000 taels of deposit. But, it's not that easy. But they never expected that the day would change so quickly.

After Cai Guang got better, he immediately took his son Cai Qin to Juyang, which is the place closest to Zhuozhou in Pingzhou.

Pingzhou set up a place in Juyang specifically to house the donkeys bought from Zhuozhou.

As soon as the plan was implemented, Lu Songli appointed Jiang Shaoyan, Ning Jiran and Liao Ying to bring the money to Juyang.

Jiang Shaoyan was previously a newly promoted official in Pingzhou. He graduated from Liaodong Academy and was later promoted to Zhonglang General due to his meritorious service.

Ning Jiran is the money bag of the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce.

Liao Ying is the quartermaster of the Sun family army.

Three people are in charge of this stall.

At this time, they had received the latest order from the governor, and also knew what happened to Ding Jun, Cai's family, and several other big donkey owners. One by one, they began to gear up, humming, how could they take advantage of Pingzhou so easily?

After Cai Guang and his son arrived in Juyang, they waited for a long time before someone came to invite them. Unlike before, whenever they came to sell donkeys, they were treated well.

Cai Guang felt vaguely that something was wrong.

After seeing Jiang Shaoyan and saying hello, Cai Guang asked, "Master Jiang, our Cai family is about to have 100,000 donkeys for sale. Do you think they should all be sent here?"

"How much does one cost?" Jiang Shaoyan asked casually.

Cai Guang and Cai Qin were both stunned. When they brought donkeys before, the price was based on the market price. There was no bargaining at all in Pingzhou. Why did they ask about the price this time?

After Cai Guang came to his senses, he smiled and said, "Master Jiang, the price of donkeys in the market now is seventeen taels per head."

Jiang Shaoyan: "It's too expensive, I don't want it anymore."

Cai Guang suddenly felt bad. When had Pingzhou ever bargained for a price? "If Mr. Jiang thinks the price is expensive, we can discuss it. How about sixteen taels per head?"

“It’s still expensive.”

Cai Guang gritted his teeth, "Then thirteen and two!"

After the quotation, he quickly cried, "Mr. Jiang, our family is also doing small business. This is really the greatest sincerity of our Cai family."

Cai Qin was dissatisfied when he heard his father quoted such a low price, but now he also realized something was wrong.

So he also said, "Yes, yes, Mr. Jiang, we are not making much money selling it at this price now. If the price goes down further, we will suffer a big loss."

Jiang Shaoyan snorted softly, "Since you are losing money, then don't sell it. If you don't sell it, you won't lose money."

Cai and his son choked.

"Master Jiang, can you tell me how much money a donkey costs, and you, Pingzhou, will buy it?"

"No amount of money will be charged, please take it back!"

After Cai Guang and his son were invited out, Cai Qin couldn't help complaining, "Dad, what's going on in Pingzhou? This donkey won't be taken in even if it's not accepted?"

Cai Guang had a solemn look on his face. He didn't know whether Pingzhou was targeting the Cai family, or whether he was not accepting the donkeys at all. If it's the former, it's okay, but if it's the latter, something big will happen!

"Let's go to your Uncle He!"

Cai Guang has already found He Shizhong and asked him to help ask Ding Jun if he still needs donkeys. The Cai family is willing to sell 100,000 donkeys to him for 10 taels each, and is willing to pay 60,000 taels in compensation, as an apology for what happened before.

He Shizhong looked at Cai Guang and his son and shook his head, "You guys, if you had known about this, why did you do it in the first place?"

Cai Guang also regretted for indulging his son.

Later, He Shizhong heard Ding Jun's tone, and the other party only replied with four words - no need.

Cai Guang quickly asked He Shizhong to tell the other party that they could make the 100,000 donkeys cheaper.

When He Shizhong received Ding Jun's reply again, Ding Jun was only willing to pay five taels of silver per head.

"Five taels!" Cai Guang said without even mentioning it.

"Impossible!" Cai Qin shouted.

Selling for five taels of silver, they would really lose money to grandma's family.

In previous years, five taels of silver per donkey would barely break even, but this year the cost of raising donkeys is particularly high because they are fed with good fodder.

After Cai Guang and his son returned, several other big donkey owners heard the news and all rushed to Juyang, but they were all rejected.

Those people looked at each other, something big was going to happen!

Ship, ship quickly! We can only run away!

But their speed is not as fast as Pingzhou.

As they were preparing to exert their efforts, Pingzhou officials had already issued a statement.

The announcement states as follows: "Letter to the People of Zhuozhou"

In the late spring of the fourth year of Tianhe, there was a large demand for donkey meat in Pingzhou. In order to stabilize supply and demand, the government not only purchased large quantities of donkey meat, but also specially appointed individuals to go to Zhuozhou to order donkeys for the coming year at a price of ten taels per donkey. For this reason, the deposit alone cost hundreds of thousands of silver.

The agreed time is approaching and we are ready to fulfill the contract.

However, Zhuozhou County Governor Zhao Minglou, together with Cai Guang, Lu Xiujie and other major Zhuozhou donkey farmers, raised the price and broke the contract first. Now the Pingzhou official unilaterally announced that it will remove the donkey meat from the military supply list and will no longer order the donkey meat from Zhuozhou. If you buy a donkey from Zhuozhou, you will no longer have any cooperation with Zhuozhou!

As soon as this announcement came out, there was an uproar in Zhuozhou, and the price of donkeys in Zhuozhou fell in response.
