Chapter 342
What Chen Chu said was actually a very common lending in the Tang Dynasty.
The Changsun family also has a similar business.
The difference is that Chen Chu said that he was interest-free, while the Changsun family was doing usury.
Of course, Changsun Wuji was not worried about the interest issue. What he was worried about was that the stalls of Xidatang Company were too big and could not make ends meet. There were places where money was used everywhere, and the money treasury would not exceed 10,000 guan.
Just this, Chen Chu still dares to lend?
Changsun Wuji thought Chen Chu was crazy.
Besides, lending without interest is not something that only fools would do?
As one of the shareholders of Xidatang Company, Changsun Wuji was of course anxious.
This is all the money we have paid for.
Chen Chu was so happy when he saw Changsun Wuji's blushing face and wanted to beat someone: "Brother Changsun, listen to me first. I said I would give out 500,000 yuan of interest-free loans, but I didn't plan to do this. The purpose of my doing this is to make Zheng feel the pressure and let Zheng hurry up and open a franchise store..."
"you……"
Changsun Wuji's head turned and he immediately understood the key.
He stared at Chen Chu in amazement: "You...you are planning to force Zheng to open a franchise store at all costs under the guise of lending, but Zheng's family has no cotton and cannot produce cotton. At that time, all the franchise stores of Zheng's family will become decorations, and Zheng's family will also suffer heavy losses...you... are you planning to knock Zheng to death with one stick?"
Is this too vicious?
But Changsun Wuji rubbed his hands and felt a little excited.
Back then, he came to the door in person and advised Zheng Chengdong with kind words to tell Zheng not to hoard cloth, but he was ridiculed by Zheng Chengdong for a few words.
Oh, it would be great if Zheng was in trouble.
Chen Chu nodded and said, "That's right, we only said we would give out 500,000 dan to lend interest-free, but we didn't say we really wanted to lend. Do you think this is the reason?"
Changsun Wuji: "..."
Bang.
Changsun Wuji slapped the table and smiled: "Don't worry, leave this matter to me, please leave it to me, brigadier general Zheng's cheating... Forget it, this is not a fraud, this is a plan. However, after this matter is successful, you can't say that all the credit is yours, at least 10% of it is mys, right?"
Chen Chu smiled and said nothing.
Changsun Wuji shook his sleeves: "It's outrageous. You kid like to take credit for it. Forget it, I won't bother with you."
Changsun Wuji left with complaints.
Chen Chu watched the other party leave and shouted, "Brother Changsun, stay for dinner..."
Changsun Wuji didn't even reply: "What are you eating? I am the one who does big things."
People who do big things will stop eating?
Chen Chu was happy.
Changsun Wuji is the most suitable thing to do about lending.
Because the Changsun family still has a high prestige in the Tang Dynasty.
If someone else appeared, the effect would definitely not be as good as Changsun Wuji.
...
early morning.
Chang'an City.
A street corner.
A big red notice suddenly appeared on the wall of Fangzi.
This color is so eye-catching that passersby are attracted by it.
Someone asked, "But it is the government's notice?"
Next to him, a man in his thirties dressed in a scholar, shook his head and said, "It's not true, this is the notice of the Xidatang Company."
"Xi Datang Company? Is the Xi Datang Company that makes cotton cloth?"
The scholar said: "That's right, it is the Xidatang Company founded by Chen Chu, Pingxibo. This is said. Since Xidatang Company invited everyone to join, until yesterday, there are still hundreds of county towns in the entire Datang, and there are no franchise stores. In order to enable those who have dreams to realize their dreams, Xidatang Company decided to spend 500,000 yuan, and lend interest-free three years to the franchisees to help everyone open their own franchise stores..."
hiss?
Everyone present took a breath of air conditioning.
Five hundred thousand coins?
Three years of interest-free loans?
What a big deal.
Even in the years of famine, the court is not so generous to lend money.
"Ping Xibo is really the savior."
"I want to see what are the conditions for this interest-free loan."
"Zhang Ergou, don't get involved. Those who can open franchise stores are either rich or noble. Look at your family. The whole family only has a pair of pants. Whoever goes out and wears them, what do you use to open a franchise store?"
"Ha ha……"
The crowd burst into laughter.
The young man called Zhang Ergou was blushed and said, "Who said that he couldn't? It's said that he didn't have a penny of interest and he could take out a loan to open a franchise store..."
Everyone burst into laughter again.
In the crowd, a servant wearing a blue shirt and a soap-corner hat slowly retreated and ran towards a carriage not far away.
The servant took two steps at a time, lifted the curtain of the carriage, and got in.
In the carriage, a middle-aged man wearing a black robe, a tied hair and a golden crown.
It was Zheng Feiyuan of the Zheng family in Xingyang.
Zheng Feiyuan asked: "How about it, what news can you hear?"
The servant took a breath and said, "Master, the big thing is not good. The Xidatang Company actually wants to spend 500,000 yuan to the Changsun family for three-year interest-free loans, so that those who have no money can open franchise stores everywhere."
Upon hearing this, Zheng Feiyuan's expression changed.
"hiss."
"Xi Datang Company, this is the director of the department targeting me Zheng's family."
“It’s unreasonable…”
"Five hundred thousand coins..."
"Hurry, come home quickly, I want to report this to my father."
Two strong horses, pulling a carriage, walked quickly through the streets.
Zheng Feiyuan rushed back to Zheng Mansion without stopping and ran to the backyard to see Zheng Chengdong.
He was about to speak, but he saw Zheng Chengdong holding a notice posted by Xidatang Company in his hand.
"Dad, it seems you know everything." Zheng Feiyuan said.
Zheng Chengdong nodded and threw the notice aside, his face a little gloomy.
Bang.
Zheng Chengdong slapped the table and said coldly: "Xi Datang Company, it is indeed Li Erlang's killing weapon. My Zheng family just announced that she would produce cotton cloth. She just invited the gentry to open a franchise store. He asked Xi Datang Company to give out 500,000 yuan to lend without interest. It was such a big deal and a big conspiracy. He did not intend to give me a way out for Zheng family. He wanted to eat my Zheng family's cloth business in one fell swoop. It was simply outrageous..."
Zheng Feiyuan asked, "Dad, what should we do now?"
Zheng Chengdong thought for a while and said, "This is not difficult... Since Li Erlang is pressing step by step, we don't have to be timid. You can summon the gentry. I, Zheng, are willing to spend 200,000 yuan to lend interest-free loans. At the same time, if you are willing to open a franchise store, Zheng can use land and other guarantees to ensure that those who open a franchise store make money within half a year..."
"Dad, if this is the case, we will bet on it." Zheng Feiyuan was a little worried.
Zheng Chengdong sneered: "I can't bear to leave my child and can't trap the wolf. This time, I will have a gamble. After success, my Zheng family will become the largest cloth merchant in the world. The Xi Datang Company will be in a slump. What's the fear?"
The old Zheng Chengdong suddenly became bolder.
