"Jingshuai, why don't you chase and fight? This can bring great benefits. You can even force him to buy the people and our food at a high price in the future. Wouldn't we make a big profit?" Ma Zhou asked.

Ma Zhou always believed that Jing Wen did not blame him just now, but also gave him a huge opportunity to go to the next level. This made Ma Zhou not understand. After all, he offended him at least. Not only did he not pursue him, he also said that he would repay his grudges with kindness? Not only did he offend him, he would not pursue him, but he also repay his grudges with kindness. This was definitely a fool's behavior. Therefore, Ma Zhou was about to get something, and he was thrown out immediately, and he was thrown out to a businessman he had always looked down upon, so of course he was unwilling to give up.

"Ma Zhou, do you think the government must rely on tough measures? In fact, the government should pay attention to neutrality rather than interfering in the market without authorization. We can force him to purchase grain at a high price, but what if he can't hold on to the loss? Then they end up going bankrupt, what should we do? You won't even understand the statement that you can't fish in the water, right?" Jing Wen asked.

"But, just let him go?" Ma Zhou asked.

Jing Wen said, "What else can you do? Since he is tactful, so what if we let him go? Even if our government office cannot always be strong to the end! If we keep strong to the end, we may really betrayal in the end. A stick and a sweet date are the best way. Otherwise, if you drive them away, there will be new grain merchants to take over their territory. Therefore, this kind of thing is simply unsolvable, so no matter how tough the government is, it will not be able to solve it. Instead, it will mess up things. Ma Zhou, if you reach a high position in the future, you must learn to mix with others! If you don't mix with others, you will not be a qualified prime minister."

"Yes!" Ma Zhou answered helplessly.

Next, another guy came. He was Zhao Yang, the largest silk merchant in Mengjin County.

"Mr. Jingwen, Ma Zhou County Magistrate, was so lard that he was so worried a few days ago, all of them..."

Zhao Yang also said the same words as Feng Zhishui just now, which shocked Ma Zhouyi. The lines used by these businessmen were the same. This was too bullying, right? Next, Jing Wen was responsible for taking over this matter.

Jing Wen also agreed that within the next five years, all the grain purchased by the government and those who need to use the money to sell grain to buy silk cloth will be handed over to Zhao Yang for purchase. Zhao Yang also had to sell these silk cloths at a 10% discount on the market price, and the government would use these silk cloths to pay taxes. Zhao Yang also left happily, because although it was sold at a 10% discount on the market price, this was wholesale, and the wholesale goods were large in quantity and the profit was also very high.

Usually, they have to trade with the people little by little, not only so that the speed is slow, but also to support a lot of labor costs. Now the government has suddenly purchased silk cloth that is equivalent to the taxes required by tens of thousands of people in the county. This allows him to make a lot of money. In addition to the needs of ordinary people, it can completely monopolize the silk cloth market in Mengjin County.

Although Zhao Yang is now ranked first among all silk and cloth merchants, it does not mean that he can monopolize the market. Therefore, there are still many people competing with him. Now that he monopolizes, he can make huge profits. And Jing Wen also agreed, just like Feng Zhishui, he also gave him a mobile red flag from the government, which shows that he is an honest and trustworthy businessman. However, in the future, it depends on the people's votes and whether he keeps his mobile red flag. At that time, he will inevitably sell silk cloth at fair and reasonable prices.

"'Iron Triangle'. It's finally completed. This time we are an iron triangle colluding with officials and businessmen. Our government, a grain merchant and a silk cloth merchant, colluded with each other to monopolize the market. We sold grain at a market price of 95% and then purchased silk cloth at a market price of 90% and we could leave five percent of the money out of thin air. And whose pocket do you think this five percent of the money will fall into?" Jing Wen asked Ma Zhou with a smile.

Of course, Ma Zhou said: "Of course this has entered the finances of our Mengjin County?"

"Smart! This is finance. If I play a game on paper, I will make money out of thin air. If I weren't worried about exploiting these two guys too hard, I might be able to make 20% of the money! Five% of the money is also good, after all, it can continue for a long time." Jing Wen said.

Ma Zhou was convinced by Jing Wen's method, because this was not something that ordinary people could play with. He made a few moves out of thin air, and even the goods were only operated on paper for a few times, and the result was a 5% extra extra money.

Don’t underestimate the 5% remaining money, which is equivalent to 3% of Mengjin County’s annual fiscal revenue. According to the current Tang Dynasty’s management of local governments, many local finances are needed to be transferred and used by senior management. Therefore, local finances are not sufficient. Now that there is a 3% annual fiscal, it means that Mengjin County can use it as a maneuver is one or two times more than the funds out of thin air. Ma Zhou also feels very magical about this financial means.

After all, being able to save money means making money. If all counties across the country can use this method to solve the problem, the national finance will probably increase a lot. This can be said that Jing Wen is very good at financial management, at least he is better at financial management than the officials of this era.

"No wonder many people say that Jieshuai is the biggest god of wealth in the Tang Dynasty. Now it seems that it is true! Just after moving on the books a few times, so much money is added. That Jieshuai's appearance is a blessing for me. Since ancient times, there have been few officials in our country who are good at managing finances. There are not many dynasties that collapsed because of finance. However, Jieshuai is so proficient in finance, so maybe the Minister of Revenue in the future will be Jieshuai." Ma Zhou said flatteringly.

Jing Wen laughed and said, "The Minister of Revenue, it's still early!"
