Chapter 234 Economic Talents

Conquering Guihua City is a big job, and we can't be busy, so we must find someone with an exquisite mind. Thinking about Li Chaosheng, he was going to look for such a talent, and now when it comes to talents, the first thing that comes to mind is Lantian Academy.

Li Chaosheng came to Lantian Academy. Now that the new semester is starting, the school has a strong learning atmosphere. When he arrived at the door of the principal's office, he heard Li Chaowen roaring.

"How many times have I told you that if you want your diploma, go back and re-study for a year, otherwise your diploma will not be taken away."

"Principal, please calm down, don't be angry, come and eat some of my popcorn."

After hearing this, Li Chaowen became even angrier: "Get lost."

The man still smiled and said: "Principal, look at you, am I just doing a small business? I haven't done anything wrong, why should you?"

Li Chaowen became even angrier when he heard this, and roared sharply. After roaring a few times, the man was still not angry, and smiled cheerfully, in a good mood.

Li Chaosheng pushed the door open at this moment and went in: "What's causing such a big fuss?"

Li Chaosheng said, after hearing this, Li Chaowen stood up and saluted: "Hello, Master."

Li Chaosheng waved his hand, followed by looking at a chubby young student at the side, the student immediately became serious and said, "Principal."

That's right, Li Chaosheng is called the principal by the college, and Li Chaowen is the principal. The principal is in charge of things in the school, and the principal is the spiritual leader.

Li Chaosheng looked at the sixteen or seventeen-year-old fat man in front of him and said, "What made your principal angry?"

The fat man laughed when he heard this and said, "I didn't do anything, I just did a little business at school."

Hearing this, Li Chaowen exploded: "Small business, the business he does is not small."

While talking, Li Chaowen began to talk about the fat man's abilities. The fat man entered school three years ago, his academic performance was mediocre, he dismissed the classics of great Confucianism, and was not interested in current affairs. The interest turned out to be mathematics.

Originally, the masters thought that he might be a talent in mathematics, and it would be fine to do mathematics in the future, but he didn't study the advanced theory of mathematics, but he especially liked calculation.

Later, the masters found out that this kid likes to calculate because he likes to make money in this area. The most obvious one is his plan to make money by using currency.

After Lantian County was stabilized, Li Chaosheng recast a batch of copper coins in Lantian. All the previous copper coins were scrapped and could not be used because there were many impurities in the previous copper coins, and some of them could only be called iron coins.

After Li Chaosheng obtained a lot of copper in Jiangnan through trade, he began to manufacture copper coins. Li Chaosheng stipulated that the new copper coins must have a ratio of copper, four, lead and six.

This copper coin is made with clear handwriting, looks extremely beautiful, and is very popular as soon as it is issued. Moreover, Li Chaosheng forced Lantian County to stipulate that one tael of silver can be exchanged for [-] new copper coins made in Lantian in Lantian County. All industries must follow this Provisions are made for exchange.

And this made Fatty see a business opportunity. One tael of silver in Lantian County can be exchanged for [-] copper coins, and these [-] new copper coins can be exchanged for at least one tael of silver when they go outside.

The reason is also very simple. Firstly, the fineness of the copper coins outside is not as good as this one. Second, the exchange of copper coins for silver outside is very confusing. Generally speaking, if the copper content is more than [-]%, one tael of silver can be exchanged for about [-] coins.

If it is lower than the level of iron coins, it can be exchanged for 2000 to [-] pieces, so this gives the fat man room to manipulate. The fat man bought and sold, and even earned [-] taels of silver in a year.

Then the fat man still had a conscience, so he directly donated 500 taels to the college, and kept 500 taels for himself. Later, this matter was discovered, and the college was going to investigate, but it seems that this kid donated the stolen money to the school afterwards , keep his student status and withhold his graduation certificate.

It turned out that this kid didn’t study hard, and he even sold popcorn in the college. The most annoying thing is that he sold it as soon as he sold it, and even made a bad move. He spent a lot of lady cards on finding an artist to buy him a pack of popcorn , with a maid card inside, the most annoying thing is that this bastard's maid card is always repeated, if you want to collect a set, you have to spend at least a few taels of silver to buy his popcorn.

It made all the students in the college look yellow and thin, and many people bought his popcorn with the pocket money given by the family. It was really a disaster for the students to live in peace.

Li Chaowen told Li Chaosheng about the bad things that the fat man did, but Li Chaosheng's eyes lit up. This fat man is interesting. Putting maid cards in the popcorn and letting students collect cards, isn't this what the little boss Shuihu card did?

This kind of marketing model can be done by this little fat man. This little fat man has a lot of skills. Li Chaosheng looked at the little fat man thoughtfully and said, "What's your name?"

"Back to the principal, my name is Ma Tengyun."

The fat man smiled and said to Li Chaosheng, Li Chaosheng couldn't help being surprised when he heard this, what a domineering name, from the experience of future generations, people with the surname Ma are easy to make big businessmen, and this name, from later generations One word was removed from the names of the two great masters, forming such a domineering name, it seems that they are not ordinary people.

Li Chaosheng thought about it and asked, "Ma Tengyun, that's a nice name, but you're so brave, you dared to take advantage of Lantian's currency loopholes to make money. Do you know that making trouble is a capital offense?"

After hearing this, Ma Tengyun said: "Principal, don't scare me. With your wisdom, you don't know this little currency loophole. It's just that you didn't fix this loophole on purpose, or that you, Principal Benevolence and righteousness are unparalleled, and you deliberately benefit the people, I think the people of Lantian County should thank you, the principal."

After hearing this, Li Chaosheng signaled Li Chaowen to pour himself a glass of water, then looked at Ma Tengyun and said, "Oh, you mean I kept this loophole on purpose?"

After hearing this, Ma Tengyun said: "If the headmaster didn't keep it on purpose, the copper coins in Lantian County would have ceased to be minted long ago. How can they still be in vigorous circulation now?"

Li Chaosheng was even more delighted when he heard this, there are not many people who can understand this move, this little student who has never been an official understands it, Li Chaosheng couldn't help but want to test the teacher.

"Then tell me why I did this?"

After hearing this, Ma Tengyun said: "The principal has three purposes in doing this."

"First, to attract businessmen from other places to operate in Lantian. Now that Shaanxi is full of wars, the business environment can be described as terrible. Although our Lantian Wufu Minfeng is a place where commerce is developed, businessmen are likely to not because of the general environment of Shaanxi. Come to do business, but now the principal is recasting copper coins to make the Lantian copper coins valuable, so that businessmen have additional temptations of benefits."

"Businessmen who seek profit will naturally come to Lantian to do business. This can promote the overall business environment of Lantian, make Lantian continue to make profits, and become a commercial center. The benefits brought by business are enough to make up for the loss of copper coins, and even far away. Far beyond, this is the first benefit."

After listening to Ma Tengyun's words, Li Chaosheng's view of this fat man has changed a lot in his heart. This kid understands economics.

Not to mention a great talent.

And this is the purpose of Li Chaosheng's profit-sharing policy for copper coins. This is the experience Li Chaosheng summed up after reading a lot of economics books.

Immediately after Ma Tengyun said: "Secondly, the current currency policy of Ming Dynasty is very chaotic, using silver, copper, and iron coins, and finally the people are unwilling to use money, and the most primitive bartering has begun. , This will greatly hinder the circulation of goods among the common people, if goods do not circulate, money will not be produced, this can be said to be a major event that shakes the foundation of the country.”

"The principal recasts the Lantian copper coins to make every copper coin very valuable. This can restore the confidence of the people who have lost confidence in currency, and the Lantian copper coin will also become the number one copper coin in the hearts of the people. It will be very valuable. It is strong, and slowly those iron coins and defective coins on the market will be unused. There is an economics book in the library called Good Money Drives Bad Money, which can naturally give the market a very With a good recovery and a good market, we can make more money."

"This is the second benefit."

When Ma Tengyun said this, Li Chaosheng's eyes lit up, well, this is definitely a great talent, and he even has an overall perspective, not bad, not bad.

At this time Ma Tengyun said again: "There is a third point, but the students don't know whether to explain it or not."

After hearing this, Li Chaosheng looked at Ma Tengyun and said, "Do you think it's appropriate to speak?"

Ma Tengyun said: "Actually, it's not appropriate to talk about it, but the students admire the principal from the bottom of their hearts. The students think that there should be no concealment from the principal, so the students want to talk about it."

After hearing this, Li Chaosheng said, "Then talk about it."

At this time, Ma Tengyun cupped his hands and said: "Currency is the foundation of a country. Only the country can be recast, and the courtiers cannot be cast. The principal recasts the Lantian copper coins. The principal's actions are first to test the court's attitude, and second, to subtly tell the people in Lantian that the principal has a heart of disobedience..."

"Bold!"

When Ma Tengyun said this, Li Chaosheng didn't say anything, and Li Chaowen on the side exploded. Can this be said nonsense?Isn't it a curse to commit chaos and disobedience?

As far as I said, it would not be an exaggeration to chop off your head. Li Chaowen was also afraid that Li Chaosheng would cut off the fat man in a fit of anger. After all, he was also his student. Being stubborn is a little bit stubborn, but he is not guilty. To death.

Thinking of Li Chaowen, he hurriedly said to Li Chaosheng: "Master, this kid is talking nonsense, please don't be angry, sir."

"Angry, why should I be angry,"

Li Chaosheng looked at Li Chaowen, Li Chaowen was at a loss for words for a while, and he didn't know what to say. At this time, Li Chaosheng said: "He is right. I am very pleased that the students in my academy have such insight. Chaowen, you The headmaster did a good job."

"Ah I……"

Li Chaowen didn't know what to say for a while, people said you are a traitor, so you are not angry at all?
Li Chaowen couldn't understand Li Chaosheng, but Li Chaosheng looked at Ma Tengyun at this moment and said: "You are really courageous. There are people who saw my step, but no one dared to say it, only you Ma Tengyun, you dare to face me Said that I have a disobedient heart."

Ma Tengyun cupped his hands at this time and said, "That's because the students have nothing to hide from the principal, and they are honest with each other."

"Ha ha……"

Li Chaosheng laughed loudly when he heard this, then looked at Ma Tengyun and said, "Okay, don't stay here anymore, come with me."

"Where?"

Ma Tengyun was taken aback for a moment, Li Chaosheng smiled and said, "Aren't you afraid of not paying back anything just now?"

Hearing this, Ma Tengyun rubbed the back of his head and said, "That's what I said, but I'm serious, I'm still afraid."

After hearing this, Li Chaosheng smiled and said, "Come back with me, I have a big deal for you."

"Buy and sell!!"

Hearing this, Ma Tengyun's eyes lit up a little. He was born to love money, but he didn't like to spend it. The main reason was that he liked the feeling of making money, especially in business. He was obsessed with the sense of accomplishment of earning money back.

In life, Ma Tengyun is not a person who likes to enjoy, and he usually lives frugally. In fact, according to his current social status, there is no problem for him to live a life of luxury, but the reality is that spending money on this kind of land is a waste of money. feeling, and wasting money is an absolutely inexcusable act.

In fact, this kind of behavior is understandable to Li Chaosheng, because in the previous life, many rich generations lived frugally, but the rich second generation began to spend their days and nights. For example, Mr. Ren Zhengfei often took taxis alone, and the small goal is not a luxury. man, but his son...

Ma Tengyun made Li Chaosheng see the potential to be a big businessman, and this kind of person is definitely a good manager of the economy, so he should be trained well.

Li Chaosheng brought Ma Tengyun back to his office. This office is called No. [-] Study Room. It has a large area. There are Master Liu and Guo Bao who are in charge of documents and materials.

Study Room No. [-] is in the county government office. It has a large area inside, but it is separated. Everyone has their own office area. Li Chaosheng's office area is at the innermost. After entering, there is a big mahogany desk inside. , Behind the desk is a leather office chair, the kind with wheels on the floor.

This was brought back by Li Chaosheng from Hyundai. The original hardwood armchair was too tiring to sit on, so he replaced it with this leather boss seat.

Li Chaosheng is sitting on a chair. This is the first time Ma Tengyun has entered Li Chaosheng's office. He can't help looking up and down. He is very curious, especially Li Chaosheng's chair with adjustable backrest and wheels. Let Ma Tengyun look at it. read and watched.

Seeing Ma Tengyun so curiously, Li Chaosheng smiled and said, "Why don't you sit down for a while."

Ma Tengyun quickly said: "Principal, you are joking. How can a student sit in the teacher's seat? Don't sit, don't sit."

Ma Tengyun said with a smile. After hearing this, Li Chaosheng looked at Guzi standing at the door and said, "Guzi, bring the document number 27 here."

"Yes."

As soon as Gu Zi said that, he went to the reference room to retrieve the top-secret document No. 27, and soon after the document was brought back, Li Chaosheng put the document in front of Ma Tengyun and said, "Look carefully, do you dare to do this business?"
