Chapter 1266 Returning to the Village ([-])
This form can't be shown directly to Bai Jiajun, but it can only be used to chat in this way, secretly reminding the direction to pay attention, and beware of any crazy behavior that the Maritime Commercial Bank will do under the huge burden of tax and money.

"You said a group of powerless men in the guild, if they want to deal with people, what tactics will they use?"

Qi Ke looked at the numbers on the watch page by page. Because she lacked long-term records from previous years for comparison, she could only guess from the existing numbers that the business situation of Qingshui Port was declining, but she didn't know how bad it was. Yes, the real situation of this is only in the hands of the Maritime Guild.

"The men in the guild usually rely on power and money to bully people, and they can't rely on fists to subdue the Bai family army to grab benefits. If their little calculations are repeatedly frustrated, the safest thing to do is to dump the pot and turn the ship The fact that the tax reduction has been reduced is thrown at the head of the Bai family army, and the Fu Zun writes a sincere and desolate memorial written with thousands of sheets of paper filled with tears and complains to the imperial court."

It’s really not talking nonsense, but for so many years, this is the consistent routine of the Maritime Merchant Guild. The guild was not strong and difficult to shake when it was established. Talking about the strength and status of one and the same, not to mention ordinary businessmen, the court officials who fell into their hands are unknown. If they do too many bullying things, their behavior habits will naturally be engraved in their bones and cannot be changed.

"Officials big and small in the government office, including every senior man in the government, must have colluded with the Maritime Merchant Guild. Those who are obedient will be promoted and get rich, and those who are disobedient will be kicked out. Compared with this, we actually have a lot of countermeasures against them. "

"There are quite a few, but they are all secrets that can only be obtained by digging under the bed or digging through the secret room in the dead of night. They cannot be released to the public carelessly. We cannot explain the source of the information. We have to wait for the right time and place to throw out two hits. Human nature is cheap, and only when one’s own safety is endangered will one know how to restrain oneself.”

Qi Ke grinned: "Okay, we didn't see it when they built a high-rise banquet in this guild, but we can definitely see their building collapse."

The external environment that the maritime merchant guild relies on for its growth and development is the constant flow of overseas merchant ships in Qingshui Port. Now that the environment has changed, it is hard to say that the guild can last for a few years. It is not nonsense to say that their buildings are about to collapse.

Zhao Lin smiled, and started another topic, "The pigs on the mountain should be harvested. Should we ask the villagers to help collect them, or ask the hundreds of households in the town to borrow some help?"

"Let's go to the town first and ask to see if they will send another person. Let us collect it ourselves and ask the villagers for help." Qi Ke really didn't care if Bai Qing and Cheng Feng would send another soldier. It's fine, it doesn't matter if you don't, you can't get into the habit of counting on soldiers to do coolies when the harvest season comes.

"it is good."

Zhaolin wrote a letter in Qi Ke's handwriting, put it in a small bag with surplus and flew to the town, and brought back a sealed reply letter, saying that he would send soldiers to help collect the grain in two days, and if Qi Ke couldn't wait, he could go to work first. It's the same when the soldiers arrive and then take over. The letter didn't say whether they would contact the county.

Qi Ke is content to see that the town will send people to come. It is of course good to have more people to work, so that the grain can be harvested and put into storage earlier.

"Since we will send people here, we don't need to spend money to hire villagers, let the maids start harvesting."

"Okay." Zhao Lin nodded slightly, and the order went on, "It's almost time for the evening story meeting, do you want to wash your face and change your clothes?"

"Wash your face, and don't change your clothes. Anyway, you didn't go out after you came back."
