Anti-Qing: I'm actually an honest person

Chapter 106 Kangxi: I am so smart
Seeing that Kangxi actually asked his opinion, Nan Huairen was still a little confused for a while.

The four princes jointly acted as guarantors, and this is the point. Whoever dares to step on Liu Xun will offend the four princes and even the entire conference of political kings. But a skinny camel is at least bigger than a mouse, right?

I had to say: "Returning to the emperor, because the West Pacific Company in Chaozhou cooperated with the Dutch, it is indeed a complete imitation of the Dutch East India Company in all aspects, so the management method is indeed different from my Qing Dynasty. I can be sure. Yes, that’s how companies work in Europe, and there’s nothing wrong with that.”

"Judging from the results, Liu Zhongtang has done a good job in Chaozhou. I heard that they are building a new Chaozhou city, and they didn't spend a penny from the court. This alone may save the court hundreds of dollars. Ten thousand taels of state money."

"I see……"

Kangxi was not unwilling to believe the fact that Liu Xun was unfaithful, it was the archway he erected, it was too embarrassing for him, but now he heard the princes and Nan Huairen say this, but he really reflected on it stand up.

"I probably understand, the rest of you go down first, Xiaoguizi"

"Minions are here"

"You stay."

"cover."

After everyone had left, Kangxi couldn't help asking: "You brought back the Chaozhou stock, and you were responsible for the Qing-Dutch alliance as an imperial envoy, what do you think of the stock, the company, and Liu Xun. "

Wei Xiaobao had no choice but to say: "Actually, the slave doesn't understand very well. Liu Zhongtang has always been somewhat resistant to the ceding of Xiamen. He doesn't want to give Xiamen to the Dutch, so...the Dutch proposed this partnership to start a company." Something happened."

"The proposal to start a joint venture came from the Dutch?"

"what."

"Well...then what's going on with this stock."

"As for stocks, what you actually buy is your confidence in a company. The purpose of buying stocks is to pay dividends, and the company issues stocks to raise funds, because the Dutch are too rich. Your majesty, you didn't give Liu Zhongtang For appropriation, Liu Zhongtang said that the Qing court would suffer a lot from such cooperation, and most of the money was eaten by the Dutch, so he asked the minister to help him sell some stocks. In this case, he would have more capital to do business. To make more money, secondly, it is to let him have more say in the cooperation with the Dutch, so that he can share more money if he makes money, slave... The slave really doesn't know that he issued stocks to the soldiers ah."

Seeing this, Kangxi quickly relieved and said: "I know, you are not to blame for this matter, and it is also a good intention for you to help him sell stocks. Anyway, this thing is really profitable. To be honest, it is better to let those princes and Baylors buy stocks. It’s better to let them occupy the fertile land of the common people, and you tell me exactly what this stock is.”

"The servant really didn't really understand, but before Liu Zhongtang left, he told me that even if the stock was sold for at least the first two years, it would only go up and not down, but after two years, he couldn't be sure, but he said, what's the matter?" Big changes will remind the slaves, and then let the slaves remind the lords to throw away quickly, there is no guarantee that you will make money forever, but it can guarantee that you will make money overall, and you will not suffer big losses."

As he said that, Wei Xiaobao went into every detail, and told Kangxi all the stock knowledge taught to him by Liu Dapao from the bottom of his heart.

He even said: "Your majesty, don't you always say that the imperial court spends too much money, and there are too many places to spend money, but the taxes are always not collected. The servant thinks, you...why you also buy some of this stock?"

Kangxi is very smart and good at learning, and he is really interested in these new things. After hearing this, he said with a smile: "I understand, there are two types of income from stocks, one is from the company's dividends, and the other is, It is the people who buy first to earn money from those who buy later, although there are risks, but as long as the company is its own, this risk is always controllable."

"I definitely can't buy stocks myself. Is there any king in the world? If I buy stocks, the stocks will not fall. If things go on like this, it will only embarrass Liu Xun. But listening to what you said, this company and stocks are indeed true. It's a good thing."

"My disciples of the Eight Banners conquer the world with bows and horses. Today's Prince Kang, Prince An and others have made great contributions to my entry into the Qing Dynasty. To be honest, they can conquer the world and should enjoy it well. Sitting in the world is a blessing, but the enclosure of land is too severe a disaster, causing people to be displaced. I absolutely do not allow it, but I also have to worry about the feelings of my uncles. The worst thing about stocks is to scrape the money of those businessmen. Bar."

Wei Xiaobao nodded when he heard the words, and said: "Liu Zhongtang did say the same thing. He said that stocks are not something poor people can afford, and ordinary people shouldn't buy them, so even if they are deceiving people, they are deceiving people. It’s all rich people’s money.”

"It is indeed an artifact to appease the honorable nobles of the Eight Banners. In fact, as long as they don't ask me for money, I can save a lot of money to do business. The officials below will be much more relaxed. The people near Zhili , and suffer a lot less.”

"What are you doing? Can the stock exchange expand a little bit more? Talk to some Shanxi merchants. Are they interested in forming such a thing called a company, and it will be listed on the stock exchange in this capital city, and let this capital city The lords here all buy some of their stocks, Chaozhou is too far away after all, and Hongmaofan is involved in it, so I still don’t feel at ease.”

When Wei Xiaobao heard this, his heart skipped a beat.

This was the task Liu Dapao entrusted to him, but to be honest, Wei Xiaobao didn't want to complete it at all.

According to Liu Dapao, he doesn't know how to win in the battlefield, and to be honest, he has no confidence that he can beat the elite of the Eight Banners of Manchuria. But in finance, no one in this world can beat him. He is [-]% sure that he can beat Kangxi Turn the table.

And once the financial thing reaches the point of overturning the table, the result must be devastating. He just lost some money, but Kangxi wanted to lose the hearts of the people.

This made him more or less unbearable. To be honest, what he thinks now is that he can help Liu Dapao where he can. Going to cheat Kangxi with his own hands, he still doesn't want to do such a thing.

I couldn't help but said: "It's better... don't let it go. I don't think the ministers of the court and China understand the stock. Once it develops, if it is messed up, will there be troubles? Chaozhou. It’s okay to do it, the capital is the best place after all.”

However, Kangxi said disapprovingly: "If there is any problem, it is nothing more than a troubled businessman. Since ancient times, generals have caused chaos, and the head of Guizhou has caused chaos. When did you hear that merchants were in chaos? This is a new thing. Always have the courage to try, everything is safe, safe, no matter how safe it is, it won’t work, such a new thing, Liu Xun, a civil servant with an imperial examination background, is also learning it now? Since it can be done well in Chaozhou, we are satisfied There are so many people in court, civil and military, how can it be wrong? Don't worry, I will personally intervene in this matter, I am so smart."

"........."

"Why, you don't have confidence in me? Do you think I can't learn the way?"

"No, I must handle this errand well, let those Shanxi merchants also integrate their respective businesses, and go public in the capital to relieve your majesty's worries and problems. Then in Chaozhou...doesn't Liu Zhongtang need to be harsh on him?"

"It is still necessary to guard against one hand. In this way, when you go out later, you can tell the cabinet by the way and give Yu Chenglong an order. You might as well put aside the affairs of Huangzhou first, and let him rush to Chaozhou to take up his post without stopping, allowing him to go straight to heaven. The right to listen, you can report to me directly about anything in Chaozhou."
