Datang first village

() People like Li Yuanxing who don't drink well like this wine.There is only one reason, that is, it is light and the degree is low.

"Zheng He!" Li Yuanxing put on his chopsticks and whispered. Zheng He immediately understood and gestured to the little eunuch. Porcelain vase 15 years Moutai.

"The king of this wine has brought four bottles this time, and my brother may not have drunk it yet. Let's taste it today, and then discuss the business." Li Yuanxing nodded after finishing speaking,

Zheng He personally took a two-cent wine glass from the tray and poured it for Gao Jian.

As for the merchants, they are not qualified yet, and they will kneel down and thank the little eunuch.

Not much wine, just one bottle.There are quite a few businessmen who come here, the leader, the status of Mr. Su naturally has money to taste it, and those with low status, half the money is not bad.

The hall on the second floor of Yangui Building is not small, but the aroma of wine is extremely strong.

All the merchants kneel down and thank you!

Gao Jian whispered at this time: "The sage hasn't drunk it yet, so it's not proper for me to drink it!"

"It's okay, my brother doesn't care about these things. He has already been sent to the palace. I think my brother is still in court at this time, so I will drink it at noon, so I can drink it with peace of mind." Li Yuanxing comforted Gao Jian.

Gao Jian didn't drink yet, but noticed the strange expression on the merchant's face.Smelling the wine in front of him again, he saluted towards the direction of the palace before taking a sip, and called out Immortal Wine.

When all the merchants heard Gao Jian's comment, they shouted for immortal wine in unison.

Li Yuanxing stood up at this time, but waved to the merchants: "Sit down, this king has summoned you. It is also the grace of a saint. This king said a word in Zhuangzi. This king uses the name of King Qin as a guarantor. Let us Those craftsmen produce a titled person, a scholar, a farmer, a businessman, a merchant is cheaper than a worker, but you have money in your hands, and your life is better than that of the craftsman. So the craftsman is actually one level lower than you.”

Many of the businessmen began to sweat. They didn't know what Li Yuanxing wanted to do, and they were extremely nervous.

Li Yuanxing said again: "This king also promised today that I will give you a chance to compete for the title!"

The businessmen are even more afraid, this will not be asking them to donate money!

"You have a chamber of commerce. Let's talk about silk first. During the Han Dynasty, silk was sold to foreign countries. You merchants, do you know the price of silk in the Roman Empire, which is a foreign country tens of thousands of miles away? Those who know can be bold. explain!"

Now there are really businessmen coming out.

"Returning to Your Highness, the price of selling silk to foreign merchants is two to four pennies per piece of high-grade ordinary silk. If you want to come to foreign merchants to travel thousands of miles, there will be ten times and a hundred times the profit."

"Ten times, hahaha! Hundred times, hahaha!" Li Yuanxing laughed, and the laughing businessmen became more nervous.

Li Yuanxing slammed the wine glass in his hand on the ground: "This king told you that it is twice the price. You can exchange a piece of silk with twice the weight of gold. I don't know how many bolts of silk are in a catty. Go and calculate, how much is two catties of gold! Calculate! Let me calculate now, and finally calculate it clearly!"

Each piece of silk was actually weighed by Li Yuanxing. According to the modern weight, it is eight to ten kilograms.

If gold is exchanged for copper coins, the price in the early Tang Dynasty was about [-] guan for every tael of gold, that is, [-] copper coins.Even if it is less, there are fifteen thousand copper coins.

If the weight is combined, then the price in Rome is several million copper coins per horse.

The businessman in Datang was frightened after a calculation in his mind. The amount is too huge, and the other party is more than a hundred times profitable.

"I killed someone a few days ago. I killed a few foreign businessmen. You know why. Let me tell you, this king is very angry!"

Li Yuanxing said that he killed someone, but in fact he didn't have the time to kill someone, even if he had the time, he didn't have the guts.

But with just this sentence, all the businessmen who were frightened left their seats and knelt down on the ground.

"Do you know why this king killed people? Because the walking sticks of those foreign merchants were hollow and contained silkworm eggs. This king is angry. Who gave such things to foreign merchants? This king wants to kill people. The guards of this king He said he wanted to kill his whole family." Li Yuanxing's angry expression made all the frightened businessmen tremble.

Gao Jian also stood up at this time: "I think His Royal Highness King Qin is still kind, and should punish the Nine Clans!"

The businessman was trembling, because Gao Jian's sentence of punishing the nine clans was really terrible!

"Get up!" Li Yuanxing roared.

The businessman was petrified, and several timid ones even peed in fright.

Li Yuanxing's tone slowed down a bit: "I'm not here to inquire about crimes this time, so don't be overly afraid. If anyone needs to change, go immediately. Zheng He will make a cup of tea for me and Mr. Gao as well."

Zheng He not only went to make tea, but also asked people to drag those who needed to change clothes. These businessmen really had weak legs.

"Have you figured it out? A bolt of silk is worth three thousand guan in Rome. Of course, foreign merchants have worked hard. After all, it takes more than a year to travel thousands of miles to travel. It is right to earn some money."

"I'm waiting for death!" Li Quandao of the Brocade Silk Merchant Association threw himself down and knelt in front of Li Yuanxing again, and all the silk merchants he worked in also knelt down.

"Get up, the king called you here to discuss how to put this money in our pockets. We, of course, are saints, Datang, and you hard-working businessmen, naturally we have to give some hard-working money to the mulberry farmers You can understand the painstaking efforts of this king!" Li Yuanxing just hit with a big stick, which scared the merchants into fear, and now he will talk about making money, and the effect will naturally be excellent.

The shrewd merchants who have been in business for many years are not very afraid, because Li Yuanxing also drank immortal wine for everyone. If they really want to kill them, there is no need to give immortal wine.

Li Huishou was the first to say: "Your Highness is wise, the money is naturally left in Datang."

Businessmen are going crazy, ten times the profit can make them take risks, a hundred times the profit can make them desperate, and a thousand times the profit can make them dare to rebel.Right now, this is a thousand-fold profit standing there, and the fear in the hearts of the businessmen has completely disappeared, and there is only fanaticism next.

Li Yuanxing sat back again: "The king's first order is that the silkworm is the top secret of the Tang Dynasty. You should keep it safe for the Tang Dynasty. It's like guarding your own money bank. If the king knows the foreign businessman and gets this secret, Even if it was stolen, this king will not be lenient."

"His Royal Highness, don't worry, the villains will keep this secret even if they die."

"Okay, very good!" Li Yuanxing nodded.

After taking a sip of tea, Li Yuanxing's expression relaxed a lot: "This king will be a sage at the meeting and set up the Datang Foreign Land Commercial Department. In the future, the price of goods sold to foreign merchants will be set by the Commercial Department. This Commercial Department will leave each of your chambers of commerce The next two positions, there is no grade, to assist the commercial department to do a good job of making money."

"Qin Wang Yingming!"

"The first commodity is silk. Set standards and unify the price of each standard. Unify foreign business tax. Among the chamber of commerce, the three with the best silk quality will be named royal! Just like you Li Huishou, Huzhou Qingyuan Silk Workshop , can be named Datang Royal Qingyuan Silk. But first of all, Li Hui should not be happy, you have to fight for this qualification, there is no privilege, this name will be judged once every three years!"

"Qin Wang Yingming!"

"There are seven more. They sell to foreign merchants with a lot of goods, the goods are good, and the merchants pay high taxes. They are named, the court of the Tang Dynasty. Three years of big reviews. Among them, the first name can be awarded the title of baron of a county for three consecutive years. The top three can be hereditary and can be promoted to nobility."

After Li Yuanxing finished speaking, everyone shouted again: "King Qin is wise!"

"The detailed charter of the Brocade Silk Chamber of Commerce will be discussed internally. Mr. Gao Jiangao will make the final decision for you here. This king has one principle. The silk of Datang is the only one in the world. The silk of Datang is gold, and the silk of Datang must be for Datang Don go and exchange foreign treasures, gold, silver, copper coins, anything valuable."

"Qin Wang Yingming!"

Li Yuanxing was very satisfied with the result, Gao Jian was already in a daze, the King of Qin was more than wise, he was a talent from heaven.

Li Yuanxing sat down and approached Gao Jian: "Master Gao, you need to plan more. This king believes that 100 million yuan a year should be the start, and you must earn more."

"Yes! It must be more than a million guan!" Gao Jianxin said, Qin Wang seemed to underestimate the enthusiasm of these businessmen and their love for money.Such profits, such opportunities, only need to be managed well.It is really a small amount of money for Datang to enter the treasury of one million guan a year. King Qin must not know how many bolts of silk Datang sells every year.

Gao Jian's goal is that Datang will earn 300 million yuan a year just by selling silk to foreign countries.

As for keeping the secret of the silk, as long as you dare to pick up the knife, and the businessman knows the importance of keeping it secret.Then definitely not a problem.

The merchants of the Brocade Silk Chamber of Commerce have gone crazy.

Li Yuanxing stood up again, it was time for him to leave, and Gao Jian had some discussions with the businessman next.After getting up, Li Yuanxing said again: "Cotton silk is the first, who is next? Is it porcelain, tea, or something else, the king is looking forward to it!"

King Qin is wise!

Amidst the shouts, Li Yuanxing left with small square steps.

When Li Yuanxing returned to Prince Qin's mansion to taste tea and asked the kitchen to make some side dishes again, the shock that Li Yuanxing brought to Datang had just begun.

The first shock is to prevent fire, theft and aliens.

Even the waiter in the restaurant knows that don't casually tell foreigners about Datang. If you take a reward for that, you will lose face of Datang. The serious thing is to accidentally tell some secrets and kill the whole family. It is impossible for ordinary people to say it, but it must be true if it is said in the mouth of King Qin of the Tang Dynasty.

Not to mention ordinary people, even the aristocratic family who received the news paid great attention to it, and issued a strict order that the servants violated the rules of the King of Qin and were beaten to death with sticks.Ordinary clansmen give poisoned wine, even important clansmen have to be severely punished.

Li Yuanxing didn't expect that his order would shock even the aristocratic clan's heart!
