"Of course! If you don't move him down, how can you successfully ascend to the throne?"
Li You asked timidly: "Then, the plan will be released?"
"Uh...how to deal with Guo Ye, I'm afraid we have to think long-term. The most urgent task now is to raise the price of glazed vessels. If you have money, don't panic. To be honest, our five noble families have suffered heavy losses recently..."
Just as Li Quan said this, someone came to report suddenly: "Patriarch Li, something is wrong! Guo Ye is selling glassware again!"
Chapter 1791 Turn defeat into victory?
It's really hard to say how much money Wude Bank lost.
The first is the man's wages.Because it closed after only three days of opening, the loss was not great.Roughly speaking, the loss was less than [-] yuan.
The second is the rent of each store. The loss in this area is about tens of thousands.
What really caused Wude Bank to suffer huge losses was the various glazed vessels it purchased from the glazed workshop.
These glazed vessels cost 1000 million guan when they were bought, but now they are only worth more than 100 million guan.A deficit of nearly 900 million guan.
However, this is only a paper loss.
After a little thought, you can see that the price of glassware cannot deviate from its production cost for too long after all.Except for the five major gentry families, the production cost of glazed vessels is very high.
Therefore, as long as a period of time passes, the price of glassware will inevitably return to its proper price.At that time, the five major noble families will sell the batch of glazed vessels in their hands, and the income will far exceed 1000 million guan.
Roughly speaking, the five major gentry families in this business war did not have much actual loss, and it can only be regarded as failing to achieve their original purpose.
This is like a person buying a stock and being locked in, as long as the performance of this stock has been good.For him, a low stock price is no big deal, and there will be a day when he will untangle himself.
The crux of the matter is how long this period of time is.
Li Quan's plan is to find a way to shorten this time as much as possible.
And Guo Ye obviously wouldn't let him get what he wanted, and he made some moves when the price of glassware just started to improve!
Hearing this news, Cui Shaoze's expression changed.
He said: "Patriarch Li, this is troublesome! Guo Ye made it clear that he didn't want us to have a good time. If this continues, when will we be able to get rid of the goods in our hands?"
Li Quan said: "Why are you panicking? Guo Ye's move is completely against the trend. Could it be possible to keep down the price of glassware?"
"We can't stand it even if it is suppressed for a year or two! People are buying up and not buying down, and he still has at least 200 million worth of goods in his hand. As long as the shipment continues, this can be done!"
Li Quan thought for a while, and said: "What you said is also reasonable. One or two years is indeed too long. If we don't get this money back, our other businesses will also be greatly affected."
"Then what do you say now?"
Li Quan didn't pick up his words, and asked the person who reported the letter: "What is the price of Guo Ye's glassware now?"
"Siguan money and a glass bowl!"
"What? How much did you say?"
"Four pennies!"
"Hahaha!" Hearing this, Li Quan couldn't help laughing out loud.
Li You staggered a few steps to the side, and said cautiously: "Patriarch Li, are you okay? Money is something outside of your body. If you don't bring it with you when you die, you should think about it."
Cui Shaoze also said: "Brother Li, even if the glazed utensils are worthless, our five great gentry clans can only be regarded as injured, and they are far from the point where the mountains and rivers are exhausted. Don't worry too much."
"What are you talking about? I'm not crazy!" Li Quan glared at the two of them, and said, "Do you think I'm that trash like Cen Wenwen?"
"How is that possible? Patriarch Li misunderstood! We just, just..."
Before Li You could figure out how to lie, Li Quan waved his hand and said, "Your Highness Qi Wang doesn't need to explain, I understand. Thank you for your concern. In fact, I feel very good now."
Li You still couldn't believe it, and said, "Then why did you laugh just now?"
"I'm just kidding that Guo Ye doesn't understand the truth that too much is too much! Now he has suppressed the price of glassware so low, I just need to use a little trick to make him steal a chicken without losing a handful of rice!"
"What are you going to do?"
"One word - buy!"
"purchase?"
"That's right! We all know that the production cost of a glazed bowl is about [-] guan. But now Guo Ye sells it for [-] guan. What does this mean?"
Cui Shaoze said: "Of course it means that the price of glassware has been suppressed very low by Guo Ye."
"That's up to you? You have to look at it from another angle!"
"Another angle? What angle?"
"Another point of view is that if we buy all the glazed vessels in Guo Ye's hands, we can get at least seven times the profit!"
One sentence awakened the dreamer, hearing this, everyone present was all smiles!
Li Youdao: "Wonderful! Guo Ye only has about 200 million glazed vessels in his hands, and if he sells them at his current price, it's only about 30 yuan. Why don't we just buy them all?"
Cui Shaoze answered: "This move kills two birds with one stone. On the one hand, Guo Ye has no goods in hand, so naturally he has no way to continue to suppress the price. On the other hand, we bought a batch of glassware at a very low price, which is equivalent to earning a lot of money." Millions of dollars."
Li Quandao: "That's the reason. At the same time, we have to close all our shops that sell glazed vessels! So that there will be no new glazed vessels on the market. With this two-pronged approach, I believe that within three months, the glazed vessels will be sold. The price of utensils will return to normal."
Speaking of this, he said with a proud smile: "This time, let Guo Ye have a taste too. Stealing a chicken won't make you lose a handful of rice!"
Li Youdao: "In this business war, Guo Ye lost a lot and we made a lot of money. In this way, we have won?"
Li Quan sighed, and said: "That's not true. After Guo Ye's troubles, our Wude Bank went bankrupt, and it can't be made up with millions of dollars."
"Not necessarily? The Five Virtues Bank closed down. Why don't we open another Six Virtues Bank and Seven Virtues Bank? It won't cost much!" Li You said unconvinced.
Cui Shaoze smiled wryly and said, "It's not about money. Under normal circumstances, a newly opened bank cannot compete head-on with the big Changlefang bank. The reason why we can pose a threat to Guo Ye this time is because we have Liuli utensils."
Seeing that Li You's face was still full of doubts, Cui Shaoze paused for a moment and continued to explain.
He said: "It turns out that the price of glassware is stable, and people can accept it as collateral. But after Guo Ye's disturbance, even if the price of glassware can be restored to the original state, people will still have lingering fears. It is no longer a suitable collateral. .”
Li Quan continued: "So, the result of this business war is that we lost the opportunity to open a big bank by relying on glassware, but made millions more money. Fundamentally speaking, we still lost money."
Li You shook his head and said, "I don't agree with the opinions of the two of you. We make money and Guo Ye loses money. How can we be considered a loser? Think about it, if we suffer from such losses a few more times, what will happen to Guo Ye?" ?”
Cui Shaoze's eyes lit up, and he said, "Then he pawned all his pants?"
"It's still true! According to this king, we made a few hundred dollars this time, and Guo Ye lost a few hundred dollars. Of course we won!"
Of course, Li Quan knew that Li You's words were not very reliable. There was no second among the five great gentry for such a unique skill as a glazed vessel.Such a situation can never happen again.
