Chapter 221 Volume Two

As a businessman, interests come first.

As long as you have enough interests, you can quickly find out what kind of face they are.

Immediately, the eldest grandson's family asked, "Shopkeeper Wang, how many papers are there?"

"As long as you have money, you can have as much as you want." Wang Dequan said, "However, based on the reasons of friendly cooperation and mutual benefit and integrity, a deposit of ten cents is required for each knife of paper in the first transaction, and only cash is accepted, and no conversion is made. "

These are all discussed by them.

What is Li Chengqian's purpose?
Make money?
Well, I have the idea of ​​making money, but Li Chengqian's main purpose is to revitalize the business of the Ming court.

To put it bluntly, the imperial court of the Ming Dynasty needed merchants to do business.

After all, the imperial court of the Ming Dynasty was short of supplies, and these natives in Chishuiyuan were not suitable for business for the time being.

In this way, these merchants are all the more important.

Changsun Wuji's cleverness actually helped Li Chengqian at this time.

How should I put it, if the eldest grandson's family wants to profit from this business, they must dispose of these materials.

How to deal with it?What can I do besides opening a shop?

Sell ​​to Li Chengqian?
Li Chengqian won't want it!
When the things landed on his ground, he still worried about whether these things would fly away?
Why did he let Yi Yuanxi build so many houses early, and he is still repairing them, isn't it just for these caravans?

Force them to open a store and sell goods to cash in, otherwise you can't do this business.

Of course, they could also go to Chang'an and ask Chang'an to send money, but at that time, it is estimated that some people had already started paper business in Chang'an market.

To do business, of course you have to be the first.

"The cash we brought is not much." The eldest grandson said, "I wonder if we can use food to convert it? After all, everyone knows that the Ming court lacks these."

"No." Wang Dequan directly shook his head and said, "Don't ask me why, I don't know, this is what His Highness told you, the paper business can only be settled in cash, if there is cash, we will do business, if there is no cash, Then wait until you have cash.”

"But we all brought a lot of supplies to support the Ming court!" the eldest grandson's family continued.

Wang Dequan said with a look of surprise: "Where does the word support come from? Could it be that you plan to give it to the Ming court? If that's the case, then I have to thank you all for our Highness."

This……

Everyone was also speechless.

At first, they really thought that the business would lose money.

But now everyone thinks differently.

Can make money, why not make money?

Seeing everyone like this, Wang Dequan said: "Okay, you don't need to worry, although the Ming court is poor, it doesn't need your support.

Our Highness said that you can come to the Daming Royal Court to do business, which is the best support for the Daming Royal Court.

As for the paper, it will be sold at the Changming Commercial Firm opposite the restaurant the day after tomorrow. The price is clearly marked, six yuan per dollar, one hundred dollars for one ream, and five hundred reams for sale. You should still think about how much you need to buy? "

When everyone heard the words, they immediately counted.

Good guy, if you count the deposit, it will cost [-] yuan at least.

This made everyone dumbfounded for a while.

No one has brought so much cash!
They only thought that they came to Daming Royal Court to make a profit, but they didn't know that there was really big business to do here.

"But we don't bring that much cash..." someone said dejectedly.

Seeing that the meat in their mouths could not be eaten, everyone was a little upset.

Wang Dequan said with a smile: "Didn't everyone bring a lot of supplies, just open a store and sell them, and if everything is sold out, naturally you will have money."

When everyone heard the words, they immediately understood.

This is to let everyone continue to do business here.

At this moment, someone came in and whispered something to Wang Dequan. After listening, Wang Dequan smiled heartily: "The good news, someone has already ordered [-] reams in advance, and they can be installed when Changming Commercial Bank opens the day after tomorrow. Car delivered."

"Who? So fast?" Someone asked curiously.

Wang Dequan shook his head and said: "Then I don't know, it was someone from His Highness who ordered it, and it seems that they are also from Chang'an."

Hearing what he said, everyone knows.

The Yuchi family and the Wei family chant.

These two families don't know whether they got the wind before, or they really hit the big luck, and the Qing Yishui they brought were all cash.

This makes everyone envious.

"Shopkeeper Wang, we have so many things, even if we open a store to sell them, I'm afraid it won't be finished in a short while, why don't you tell His Highness King Ming that it's okay to buy less at a time." Someone asked immediately up.

With so many things, how could it be said that they could be sold out, let alone in Riyue Mountain, even in Chang'an City.

Shopkeeper Wang still shook his head, but he said: "If your family is not enough, you might as well join together. Well, yes, I heard from our Highness that there is a money account in this city, which seems to be able to borrow money." , Why don't you go and ask?"

Li Qinjian is currently in charge of the money account. After he took office as the servant of the household department, Li Chengqian stopped his work as a general supervisor and set up a money account.

Of course, today's Daming money account is actually an empty shell, and the entire money account contains only a few thousand coins.

As for this, it was the efforts of the whole country of the Ming court to gather together.

As soon as everyone heard it, they immediately discussed it.

As for the money number, it has to pay interest, and the interest on the money number has never been low.

If possible, no one would want to go to a money account to borrow usury.

"Shopkeeper Wang, do you know if there are any vacant shops in this city?"

Someone asked.

The most important thing is to set up the shop.

Speaking of this, Wang Dequan laughed and said: "When you go to the street, you can see for yourself that all the shops on the street are ready-made, and the only thing that is missing is goods and staff. As long as there are goods and staff, they can open for business immediately. .”

These two rows of shops on the street were driven out by Ihara Seok with more than 2000 people working overtime.

Isn't it for today?

When everyone heard the words, they didn't eat any food, and went straight to the street to find shops.

But they just watched, and really didn't dare to make up their minds.

After all, no one knows how much such a shop costs. With the scattered silver in everyone's pockets, they still want to buy more paper to take home.

"Are you here to visit the store?" Just at this moment, a young man stepped forward and asked.

This young man is Pusiruo's subordinate, to put it simply, he belongs to the household department.

Now that Pusiro is in charge of the household department, he is naturally in charge of commercial taxation.

Hearing the young man's question, everyone didn't want to respond, but who knew that the young man continued: "If you are interested in any shop, just say it is, His Royal Highness Ming Wang has a clear order, saying that it is to thank the merchants from Chang'an for coming to Daming King The court is doing business, and the rent of the year is specially reduced or exempted, so you should not have any worries."

In order to keep these guys, Li Chengqian also took great pains.

Even the tricks used by real estate developers in later generations to develop new real estate have been used.

However, his method is really easy to use.

When everyone heard what the young man said, they were immediately stunned, and at the same time, they felt a little complacent.

This damn sense of superiority...

"Really?" asked the eldest grandson's family.

The young man said with a smile on his face: "Of course it is true, can His Highness Prince Ming still deceive people?"

This is true.

It would be ridiculous if the prince of the Tang Dynasty broke his promise.

For people like them, the identity of King Ming was no longer a secret.

So, it is still believable.

"Let's go and have a look." Hearing that there was such a good thing, everyone smiled happily.

Immediately, he looked at the shops one by one.

After a while, everyone found a good shop.

And the young people came prepared, and they carried the contract with them. As long as someone took a fancy to the shop, they would immediately take out the contract and sign it with them on the spot.

In the afternoon, on the street where only Changming Restaurant was originally open, suddenly there were more than [-] shops selling all kinds of things.

People in the valley heard that shops in the outer city had opened, and many people came out out of curiosity to take a look.

For a while, the outside of the city was extremely lively.

And Li Chengqian watched this scene from the top of the city, and finally heaved a sigh of relief. The business of the Ming court had finally started.

However, since the things they brought this time are not the routine things of ordinary people's lives, the business is really bleak.

Although many people in the valley went out to join in the fun, there were really not many places where money could be spent...

That is to say, grain stores, pharmacies and other shops that are close to life, have a little business.

Everyone had expected this, but fortunately, the shop was rent-free this year, and there was no expense left and right, so everyone was deadlocked.

But they also discovered that these people in Riyue Mountain didn't have money, but that they didn't have the things they wanted to buy.

For example, things that are close to life, such as needles and threads.

The question is, who carries that thing?
That night, everyone began to discuss the opening of Changming Commercial Bank the day after tomorrow.

This business must be done. If you don't do profitable business, you really deserve to be struck by lightning.

With Wang Dequan's reminder, everyone was actually relieved a lot.

A family can't afford that much money, but can't they come together with so many families?
However, what they didn't know was that that night, Li Chengqian was assigning tasks to Pusiruo, Li Qinjian and the others, asking them to organize people to purchase in those shops.

It will be loaded and shipped the day after tomorrow. They can't really let them spend money to buy the goods, can they?

Anyway, it's a matter of left hand over right hand, Li Chengqian is willing to do so.

So, on the second day, everyone was surprised to find that today's business was not much better than yesterday.

In one day, each store sold hundreds of goods, which made everyone very happy.

On the third day, when Changming Commercial Bank officially opened for business, the scene was called a madness.

It was really rushing in with the money bag.

Li Chengqian was still watching this scene from the top of the city, but today, there are more people around him.

There are Yuchi Baolin, Changsun Chong, and Xiao Yue and others.

"Your Highness, what is so miraculous that it can drive them so crazy?"

Chang Sun Chong didn't understand. He even saw his own people crowding at the door of Changming Commercial Bank.

"You haven't gone out to have a look these two days?" Li Chengqian was a little puzzled.

Chang Sun Chong said helplessly: "Didn't Your Highness say before that we will receive Chang'an's caravan outside the city for the next two days, so let's not go to the restaurant to cause trouble..."

When it comes to adding chaos, Chang Sun Chong is even more speechless.

What are these words?

When did we become a messy bunch?

Li Chengqian touched his forehead and said, "Did I say that?"

He can't remember either, he has been so busy recently, how many words he has to say every day, who remembers these little things.

Chang Sun Chong felt helpless.

Forget it, stop talking.

"It's just some paper. It's not magical. By the way, it's the kind of paper you guys use recently." Li Chengqian explained.

When they heard that it was something like this, everyone immediately became uninterested. They said that the paper they used in Chang'an was better than this.

Seeing their reaction like this, Li Chengqian didn't bother to explain to them.

After watching for a while, Li Chengqian lost interest and left.

In the Changming Commercial Firm, the clerk said: "Don't squeeze, don't squeeze, there is something, everyone has it."

With this price, everyone had already expected such a reaction, so the preparations were very thorough.

Before noon, everyone loaded the paper they had bought into the carriage, and after explaining to the folks of each family, they rushed to Chang'an non-stop.

What they didn't know was that as early as last night, Wang Dequan took a batch of papers and took a step ahead.

Since Li Chengqian said that the retail price of paper is ten cents and one knife, he naturally wants to implement this price.

If he didn't go to Chang'an to sit in town, would these guys really sell ten coins?
Therefore, he has no choice but to go through this.

As for the Daming royal court, they are not worried, and the business continues, anyway, there are only a few guys.

Just after the caravan left, Wang Xuance returned.

Although Wang Xuance is now serving as the Minister of Rites, his work is still in the camp outside the mountain, and his main purpose is to manage the herdsmen in the camp who have just surrendered to the Ming court.

"What happened?" Li Chengqian asked when Wang Xuance came back.

Wang Xuance said: "No, it was He Lu who sent someone to express his surrender again, and they are now in the mountains a hundred miles west of our camp."

"The camp outside Riyue Mountain?" Li Chengqian asked.

Wang Xuance nodded and said, "Yes."

"This guy is interesting." Li Chengqian said, "Okay, don't worry about him."

"Then he surrendered?" Wang Xuance asked.

Li Chengqian shook his head: "Don't pay attention to him, how is your work there recently?"

"The progress is going well, but many people want to migrate to Riyue Mountain, and they still feel that the camp is too dangerous." Speaking of this, Wang Xuance also had a headache, "Also, it may be because I heard that Murong Shun wanted to move to the Riyue Mountain. After going to the Tang Dynasty, there are more and more tribes wanting to join our Daming royal court recently, and the screening work is getting harder and harder."

"It's impossible to move to Riyue Mountain." Li Chengqian directly refused, "Tell them that only those who have made great contributions to the court of the Ming Dynasty are allowed to move to the outer city of Riyue Mountain. As for how to make contributions, they understand.

By the way, the matter that the king said earlier that their children can enter the Daming Guoxue, how is it going? "

Wang Xuance wondered: "It's still under review. The main reason is that everyone wants to send their children to Daming Guoxue. There are too many people, and the review is quite troublesome."

"Okay." Li Chengqian waved his hand and said, "This king told Wang Jin at the time that there is no limit to the number of places, so how can we examine the two of you casually, why are there so many things going on?
We are here to appease people's hearts, not to choose the champion, so what is the need for such a strict review?

That's it, when you go back, pick the ones who signed up first, and send half of them first, otherwise if you keep procrastinating like this, others will think you are just perfunctory them. "

Wang Xuance hesitated, and said, "That's the Ming Dynasty after all, Your Highness."

"Don't this lord know that it is Daming Guoxue?" Li Chengqian never thought that Wang Xuance was a fool, "Tell me, why do we let those children enter Daming Guoxue?
Do you really expect them to become prime ministers after a few years of study in Chinese culture?
We let them enter the essence of Daming Guoxue to appease the herdsmen and let them know that we have tried our best to be fair and equal in dealing with them.

As for whether those children can learn something after entering the Daming Guoxue, this is not the most important thing.

Our top priority has never been this.

If the relationship between those herdsmen and our Daming Royal Court is not properly handled, that will be the worst. "

"I understand." Wang Xuance said.

Of course, having said that, he still didn't understand.

This thing can't be explained.

Knowledge is sacred in their eyes.

Opportunities to study are hard-won.

He can't understand how Li Chengqian throws away the opportunity to study at will.

After all, when he was studying, it was not that simple.

Seeing Wang Xuance's reaction, Li Chengqian knew that this guy still didn't understand, and didn't explain too much at the moment, saying: "You go to work first."

To be honest, Li Chengqian was a little disappointed with Wang Xuance's behavior.

It stands to reason that Wang Xuance is actually the person who should know this most.

It seems that I have to find time to give these guys a good lesson.

After the high-ranking officials got to sit, the mentality of these guys was a little bit flustered.

But drifting away, Wang Xuance still listened to Li Chengqian's explanation.

Even if he couldn't understand it, it didn't prevent him from carrying out Li Chengqian's explanation.

After returning to the camp, Wang Xuance immediately found the registration form that everyone registered for their children. Just like Li Chengqian said, he directly checked more than half of the people in front of him, and issued a notice on the same day, and sent a special person to notify those who were checked. The selected ones are going to go to the Riyue Mountain Daming Guoxue to study.

All of a sudden, many herdsmen were ecstatic. After waiting for so long, they finally got a result.

And those who are not selected are not disappointed, as long as there is a first time, there will always be a second time.

In other words, as long as there is still hope, everyone is not too worried.

Seeing everyone's reaction like this, Wang Xuance finally understood what Li Chengqian meant.

Of course, understanding is still impenetrable.

As for Wang Jin, it has been done long ago, but Wang Xuance has not finished it here, and it is not easy for him to get it up in advance.

This is the way of being an official.
