Chapter 302 Solve


    Mr. Wang brought the approval document written by Yuan Shangshu in his hand, which was to apply for the certificate of silver, with Yuan Shangshu''s signature and official seal on it.


    They should have applied to the Ministry of Revenue.


    As a result, I asked Qin Chi to do it, which is completely inappropriate!


    Qin Chi took the approval document, "Mr. Wang, is it appropriate to ask me to go to the Ministry of Revenue?"


    "It''s appropriate. You can go to the Ministry of Revenue to find Shangshu Xia and ask him to sign an autograph and stamp it."


    After saying that, Mr. Wang ran away as if a dog was chasing him. Perhaps he also knew that what he did was not authentic.


    Qin Chi followed the hot potato.


    You should know that there are too many departments waiting for the Ministry of Revenue to go. If you apply for banking twice, it will be considered as good.


    "Young Master, did they do it on purpose?"


    Qin Ba didn''t say anything just now, and when he left, he finally couldn''t help but curse, "It''s autumn. Not to mention rushing to work, cotton and cloth are not enough, and you have to spend time buying from outside. It''s harder to complete it than climbing the sky. Now, it''s better to go to the Ministry of Revenue to ask for money, their work was also thrown to you! If you fail to send 200,000 cotton jackets to the northwest on time, 80% of the responsibility will be put on you."


    At that time, if the superiors hold people accountable, Qin Chi will be guilty of dereliction of duty.


    This is exactly the purpose of Shangshu Yuan.


    Another clever plan.


    After all, this was originally Yu Hengsi’s task. The Ministry of Works has been delayed for a while because of the corruption case before. Didn’t Yuan Shangshu immediately ask Yu Hengsi to rush the system when he came back? Take this matter outside and talk about it, no one will say that Yuan Shangshu is not.


    I only feel that Qin Chi is unlucky.


    I just arrived at this time and became the person in charge of Shangyu Hengsi.


    Old Huo, who was guarding next to him, was about to be an invisible person. When Qin Ba said this, he rolled his eyes, "The tasks that others cannot complete may not be in the hands of the young master."


    Qin Ba turned to Qin Chi''s ability and immediately stopped talking.


    Qin Chi stood up calmly, straightened his clothes and ordered: "Bring official documents and certificates, we will go to the Ministry of Revenue now."


    Qin Ba packed up and followed Qin Chi, "The Ministry of Revenue will be very busy today. There are many long tables at the gate, and there are many people queuing up to donate. Young Master, we are here now, will people pay time to pay attention to us?"


    "Shangshu Xia is in a good mood today, and it is the time to go and find him now."


    If it was said yesterday that it would be difficult to ask Qin Chi to go to the Ministry of Revenue to handle this matter, he would probably be neglected and cold-faced. However, in the morning, Xia Wei and him happened to have a relationship with him.


    Before taking over Yu Hengsi.


    Qin Chi used Shun''an Commercial Bank to be responsible for some military supplies in the Northwest Army, such as medicinal materials, grain and forage. Qin Chi naturally knew about the Ministry of Works’ owes 200,000 military cotton jackets this year. When he took over Yu Hengsi, he expected that today would be there, so he asked Song Jin to help buy cotton in advance.


    Just wait for the Ministry of Revenue to approve the goods and deposit the goods.


    Xia Wei didn''t expect to see Qin Chi again so soon, "What wind has blown Qin Zhuangyuan?"


    "I want to ask Lord Xia for something."


    Qin Chi put the previous official documents and certificates on Xia Wei''s desk, "The soldiers in the border have never changed into military cotton clothes for ten years. Today, Secretary Yuan ordered the subordinates to rush to make 200,000 pieces. After receiving the approval, I will come to see you immediately. Please help Lord Xia."


    “Four hundred thousand taels…”


    Xia Wei wanted to say that you might as well kill me directly, but when I thought of Qin Chi''s words just now, he had never changed his military uniform for ten years. "A military cotton jacket is customized with specifications and cannot be less than four kilograms of cotton. The price of cotton on the market this year is 20% or 30% higher than in previous years. Cotton alone costs more than one or two liang of silver. Your cost is 20% or liang, can it work?"


    "Shu Yuan may have known the difficulties of the Ministry of Revenue, so he reduced the cost to two taels of silver." Qin Chi was as stable as Mount Tai.


    No one said that Yuan Shangshu made things difficult for him.


    But it seemed like I said it!


    Isn’t Yuan Shangshu trying to minimize the cost? Isn’t it just deliberately making things difficult for Qin Chi?


    Of course, Xia Wei could see through the twists and turns at a glance. Perhaps the Ministry of Revenue was the part that the other party made things difficult for Qin Chi.


    He was unhappy to be used as a gun.


    In view of Qin Chi''s great help today, Xia Wei signed and stamped it happily.


    Qin Chi bowed deeply to Xia Wei with gratitude and went to take the money without saying anything. When Qin Chi helped people get the money.


    The news came back to the Ministry of Works.


    Yuan Shangshu was stunned, "Xia Wei actually criticized it? How is that possible?"


    "Sir, I''ve criticized it."


    The confidant who went to inquire and affirmed, "Don''t worry, even if he got the money, he would not be able to complete the task. The cotton on the market is now sold for 30 cents and 60 cents per pound."


    "You keep asking."


    Yuan Shangshu has been dealing with Xia Wei a lot over the years. When his confidant retreated, he looked around the two ministers and seemed to sigh: "I really don''t know when Shangshu Xia was so easy to talk to. He just criticized it for 400,000 yuan. When we went to the Ministry of Revenue, we were not on the bench."


    Mr. Wang hesitated and said, "Maybe Mr. Xia is in a good mood?"


    "It is second to be in a good mood, mainly because he owe Qin Qi''an a favor today." The Right Minister happened to hear the news and told him about the donation of Song Jin today.


    Yuan Shangshu''s face was terrifyingly gloomy and waved his hand to signal the two to retreat.


    Besides, Qin Chi returned to Yuhengsi and immediately began to make arrangements.


    There is no shortage of fabric and cotton.


    Song Jin had already ordered people to deliver the purchased cotton to the capital, which was a total of millions of kilograms, and was piled up in the warehouse of Shun''an Trading Company. Yu Hengsi only needs 800,000.


    The cloth is also prepared.


    All are the direct acquisition price, half cheaper than on the market.


    But in order to confuse Yuan Shangshu''s eyeliner. Qin Chi deliberately asked Yuanwailang, the head and others to contact the Beijing merchants and ask about the prices of cotton and fabrics.


    The Yuan family had already said hello behind the scenes, and the price was ridiculously expensive. It costs 30 cents and 50 cents to bite cotton, but it is only 10 cents to be discounted on the market. A suitable fabric costs 140 yuan per piece, which is not much cheaper than the market.


    After Yuanwailang handed over the price list, Qin Chi asked blankly: "Are you sure this is the final price?"


    Yuanwailang said bitterly: "Sir, I don''t know who spread the news that we urgently need cotton and fabrics. These merchants are now bitten to death and refuse to lower the price. They also said that there is less cotton this year, and 30 cents and 50 cents is the cheapest price."


    "I asked them to go to Piaoxianglou, and I personally told them." Qin Chi decided to meet these merchants.


    The person has made an appointment.


    But these businessmen were greeted by others, so Qin Chi naturally returned in vain. In front of the people, he pretended to be in a panic and did not return to Cuihua Hutong until dark.


    Song Jin looked tired when he saw Qin Chi, "Are you very tired?"


    Qin Chi hugged the person in her arms, whispered in her ears, and said something that Yuan Shangshu was embarrassed by himself, "I pretend to be tired... pretend to be the one named Yuan. I want him to be happy first..."


    Song Jin wanted to say that this was really hurt.


    But it was a good job!


    The two talked about the cost of cotton jackets again.


    Qin Chi thought, "In order to avoid the long nights and many dreams, I decided to go to Shun''an Trading Company tomorrow to sign a purchase contract, three cents per kilogram of cotton and one hundred and twenty cents of cloth, how about it?"


    "Will the price be set high?"


    The cost price of the cotton purchased by Song Jin is one 80 cents per kilogram after deducting transportation costs. The fabric is collected by Shun''an Trading Bank, and the cost price is 78.


    Qin Chi was guilty of not making black money, "The businessman outside was biting 30 cents and 50 cents of cotton and 140 cents of cloth. I reduced one by fifty cents of one by fifty cents of one by twenty cents of one by twenty cents of one by one, which was a conscience price."


    "Yes, my husband is a conscience." Song Jin agreed unconditionally.


    Qin Chi: “…”


    At first glance, why do you seem to be mocking me?


    ps: In ancient times, one pound was sixteen taels, and in modern times, one pound was ten taels.


    1 tael = 10 coins, 1 qian = 100 coins.
