Xie Junyi didn't quite understand what Qu Yunchu meant, but after all, it was a family matter of the Lu family, so he didn't want to ask more questions, so he just complained:

"It would be cruel for Mr. Lu to leave at this time and leave you to deal with this mess alone. However, Uncle Tang has become increasingly incomprehensible recently. He somehow got involved with Song Chuyuan. I'm here What I heard from Crescent Academy is that they are probably going to unite all forces to deal with Lu Wenqian and Zhang Jinnian, so I know you must be more careful."

"Thank you, Lord Magistrate, for reminding me."

Qu Yunchu replied calmly.

This was just expected.

Both himself and Tang Youning annoyed Tang Shun. Tang Shun had no good intentions towards the Lu family. He was colluding with Song Chuyuan and wanted to deal with the Lu family. He also hoped that the Lu family would be completely defeated and wanted a share of the pie.

"There are too many trivial matters in the house, so I won't keep the magistrate here."

Lu Wenqian was currently away from home. Due to the relationship between Xie Junyi and the original owner, Qu Yunchu naturally had to keep a certain distance from him. After saying goodbye to him, he returned to Fengyage.

……

In the study room of the headmaster of Crescent Academy, Song Chuyuan drank a cup of tea comfortably and said to Tang Shun with a smile on his face: "I heard that the Lu family is in trouble now, so Lu Boting left the house directly."

"These old guys in the Lu family have always been selfish and short-sighted. It's strange that the Lu family doesn't fall into decline without them."

Tang Shun curled his lips with a cold face: "Now we just need to wait quietly for the Lu family to ask the Song family leader for a way out."

Song Chuyuan frowned thoughtfully: "The behavior of Ling Qianjin and your son-in-law is puzzling. The Lu family is now like a clay Buddha crossing the river and cannot save itself. Ling Qianjin not only did not disperse the servants in the house, Instead, they all stayed, and Lu Wenqian is even more puzzling, I heard that he started hoarding silk again in Bingzhou."

"The backlog of finished fabrics in the Lu family's warehouse is already piling up like a mountain. If he continues to buy silk at this time, wouldn't he be asking for death?"

Tang Shun was also a little confused. He was silent for a moment before saying, "Is it possible that he wants to use Zhang Jinnian's connections to regain the position of imperial merchant for the Lu family?"

"If he dares to do this, wouldn't it just be in line with the wishes of the Minister?"

Song Chuyuan smiled meaningfully.

Tang Shun also felt that Lu Wenqian was not that stupid. The rumors that he and Zhang Jinnian were in cahoots had already been widely circulated, and the emperor might have become suspicious.

If Zhang Jinnian dared to approach the Lu family at this time, he would really be seeking death.

"It seems like my little nigga and Lu Wenqian are just fools and don't know what they can do."

Tang Shun looked at Song Chuyuan with deep eyes: "Lu Wenqian does have some abilities. He has turned the tide when the Lu family was in crisis many times, but this time it is different. Without the protection of the royal merchant, where can he be?" Can compete with Master Song."

Song Chuyuan couldn't help but laugh sadly: "Then I will have fun with the Lu family leader."

As soon as he finished speaking, he summoned the servant and immediately ordered: "Go quickly and send an order to Zhuangzi in each state. The Song family wants all the silk produced by all the farmers in the coming year. The price is [-]% higher than this year's purchase price."

"Thirty percent?"

Tang Shun looked shocked: "I'm afraid that this will force all the cloth merchants to lose their livelihood."

Although the Song family is wealthy, this monopoly method of killing one thousand enemies and losing eight hundred to oneself will arouse public outrage.

For a moment, Tang Shun also felt disgusted with the power of capital.

"I heard that this year, the head of the Song family and Lu Yanchao competed for the fabric market in the five Tanzhou prefectures. They not only doubled the price of silk, but also lowered the price of the finished products by several percent. If this continues, the entire silk and satin industry will be in decline. You won’t be able to survive.”

Tang Shun said with anxious eyes.

"I just want all cloth merchants to look at the face of my Song family to make a living."

Compared with the ambitions of Lu Yanchao, the ambitions of Song and Chuyuan could be said to be even worse.

The business map in his mind has long been formed, and it is precisely to completely monopolize the fabric and satin industry of the Dayue Dynasty.

So he didn't hesitate to throw money into it crazily.

After defeating these rivals, he can purchase the opponent's property at a low price, and then use the price difference to make up for the shortfall invested in it.

<divclass="contentadv">In this way, it can not only defeat the opponent, but also expand the industry. It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone.

But as soon as he finished his thoughts, a boy came to report in a hurry: "Let me report to the head of the family, people who came back from Bingzhou, Quzhou and other places said that the head of the Lu family is now leading many boys to set up stalls in the city to sell silk brocade at low prices. .”

"Set up a stall?"

Song Chuyuan had a look of astonishment on his face: "What kind of trick is he playing? The materials produced by the Lu family are all of the highest quality, yet they are sold to those lowly common people as street goods."

Tang Shun's focus was not on this: "How can the Lu family have so many people available now?"

"I heard it's the Chen family."

The boy replied: "The head of the Chen family sent a lot of people and helped the Lu family build a temporary shop. The vendors setting up the stalls are all from the Chen family."

"Chen family?"

Song Chuyuan frowned: "That makes sense."

"Could it be that Lu Wenqian sold all the backlog of silk brocades to the Chen family?"

Tang Shun suddenly noticed something: "It's said that you can't afford to start early without benefit. If it wasn't true, how could the Chen family take such pains to help the Lu family?"

The boy nodded and said, "Recently, there are indeed rumors everywhere that the Lu family's head sold the goods in various warehouses to the Chen family at a discount of several percent."

"It's such a huge bargain that old guy Chen Yingnan picked it up."

Song Chuyuan clenched his fists angrily, feeling firsthand the malice of snipe and clam competing for fishermen's profits.

He worked hard to defeat the Lu family, but in the end all the benefits were taken away by the Chen family.

It's really annoying.

"It seems that Lu Wenqian is determined to fight with me to the end."

Song Chuyuan said with a gloomy look.

"I'm afraid that's the case."

Mentioning this matter, the boy also said anxiously: "Master, I heard that the Lu family has sent people to the south to buy silk."

"Going to the south to purchase? I don't believe he has the ability to dare to compete with my Song family."

As soon as Song Chuyuan finished speaking, another servant hurried in and reported loudly: "Master, I heard that Chen Yingnan ordered people to buy silk on a large scale. Nine out of ten mulberry farmers in Yizhou have been booked by the Chen family."

"It doesn't make sense."

Song Chuyuan pursed his lips and slapped the coffee table hard: "Then Chen Yingnan is too brave to dare to fight against my Song family. I will make sure that old man dies without a burial place."

"Business is all about profit."

Tang Shun was calm and advised disapprovingly: "At this time, the head of the Song family should be more generous. It won't be too late to defeat the Lu family first and then deal with Chen Yingnan."

These words reminded Song Chuyuan, and he immediately calmed down.

"That's right, that's right. This old guy Chen Yingnan must have received the Lu family's silk brocade at a low price and tasted the benefits. He thought of getting a share of the silk business."

After saying that, he immediately ordered the servant: "Send the steward to the Chen family quickly to negotiate. No matter what, we must capture Yizhou's silk. It must not fall into the hands of the Lu family. This time, I want to make sure that all of Lu Wenqian's weaving workshops are destroyed. A piece of silk is available.”

Seeing him being so vicious and decisive, Tang Shun felt relieved.

Lu Wenqian was really unwise this time. Perhaps he was blinded by hatred and lost his mind. Even if he sold the backlog of goods to Chen Yingnan at a discount, the cash exchanged would not be enough to compete with the Song family.

Well, I just lamented that my two stupid daughters could only drink the northwest wind with the Lu family this time.
