Daming: My boss Zhu Yuanzhang

Chapter 58: Boss Shen
"I see."

Li Wei nodded. It seems that this TV series still cannot be believed. Such a big thing can be made up.

Shen Jing didn't know what Li Wei meant by this incomprehensible sentence.

"By the way, Boss Shen, why did you come to see me?" Li Wei asked.

Shen Jing was slightly startled. The word boss was quite new. Although he had never heard of it, he could probably guess that it was a term for a businessman.

"Oh, recently, thanks to the care of Mr. Li's Minghuang Chamber of Commerce, the business of several of my shops has improved. I am here to thank Mr. Li!"

As Shen Jing said this, he took out a wad of treasure notes from his sleeve and handed it to Li Wei. Li Wei took a look at it and said, "Good guy, look at this thickness, let alone Qian Guan. It's such a big deal!"

"Master Shen is joking. Your Shen family is a famous rich man. How can I take care of you with my small business? It's better to take this back. I will take it."

Li Wei smiled and finally emphasized "this official". Although he was determined to resign, he was still an official after all. If he dared to accept the money now, Zhu Yuanzhang would have to trouble him tomorrow.

Shen Jing was slightly startled, thinking that he didn't expect that Li Wei was an honest official.

"Master Li is an honest official, and Shen admires him!"

Shen Jing praised sincerely, but did not take back the treasure. Instead, he continued: "But these are business transactions, and it is not for Mr. Li to show favoritism. Sir, please rest assured."

Li Wei shook his head: "No need really, take it back. We are a win-win cooperation in business matters. I am not taking care of you. What's more, your Shen family has a great business. It should be me who wants Boss Shen to take care of you."

Seeing that he really refused to accept it, Shen Jing stopped persisting, but after hearing what Li Wei said next, he sighed.

"Mr. Li doesn't know something. Hey, it's all a family scandal. Since my father and my grandfather passed away a few years ago, the family has lost its head of family, and people's hearts have been broken. Now most of the business of my Shen family has been taken care of by my second uncle. With this control, my direct lineage was only given a few dozen shops and some properties and houses, hey..."

Li Wei was shocked after hearing this. Dozens of shops, properties, and houses are just a mere handful?Where are you and me in Versailles?
At the current price, dozens of shops cost at least hundreds of thousands of guan. Adding in the property and houses, this mere boss Shen has a family fortune of at least close to a million guan!
What is the concept of a million dollars? Li Wei compared the current prices of Ming Dynasty with those of later generations, and roughly came up with a ratio:
One penny is equivalent to about fifty cents to one yuan in later generations.

Of course, the environment is different and the price reference is different, so the conclusion will definitely be different, but this number can be used as a reference.

It's always one thousand yuan, which is less than 1000 yuan, 100 million yuan. If you round up, it's nearly one billion yuan!

One billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion, one billion.

Li Wei's mind was filled with images of crouching dragons and phoenix chicks, and he was so greedy that he wanted to drool!

It's better to be a second-generation rich man. Although he is very confident in his Minghuang Chamber of Commerce, even if it develops smoothly, he may not be able to earn 100 million yuan in his life.

Jealousy envy hate ah!

"Master Li? Master Li?"

Shen Jing saw him in a daze and called him twice.

"Huh? Oh, Boss Shen is indeed... indeed rich!"

Shen Jing smiled awkwardly after hearing this, thinking that Li Wei was laughing at him.

"Master Li, to be honest, the business of my shops has not been good recently. Thanks to Master Li's soaps from the Minghuang Chamber of Commerce, I admire Master Li's business ability! In addition to thanking you for coming here this time, , also want to see if I can have the honor to cooperate with Mr. Li?"

After hearing this, Li Wei felt something in his heart. He was still in the initial stage. If he had the support of the Shen family, his development speed would definitely be rapid!
But when he thought about Lao Zhu, he felt a little discouraged. Unless Lao Zhu was solved, the business would not be stable!
After thinking about it, Li Wei decided to tell the truth.

Thinking of the accident in Versailles just now, he deliberately sighed with a sad look on his face and said to Boss Shen, who is worth a billion dollars:

"Hey, Boss Shen, to be honest, His Majesty just promoted me to the third rank of Minister of Works just yesterday."

Shen Jing was a little confused when he heard this. If you get promoted, just get promoted. What does it mean to have a sad look on your face?
Although he did not know the word Versailles, it did not prevent him from understanding its meaning.

After a moment of silence, Shen Jing reappeared with a smile on his face and said: "Then I would like to congratulate Mr. Li on his promotion!"

After saying that, he took out the treasure money and expressed it for a while.Li Wei rolled his eyes and waved his hand.

"You should know that the Ming Dynasty Law stipulates that officials above the fourth rank cannot do business!"

Shen Jing suddenly realized: "So Mr. Li is worried about this? This is easy to handle."

"Oh? Do you have a solution?"

Li Wei said in surprise.

Shen Jing opened his mouth, then hesitated. Everyone knew some things, but they just couldn't say it clearly.

After thinking for a while, he said tactfully: "Master Li, in fact, there are not a few officials in the DPRK and China doing business. Although there are regulations in the Ming Dynasty law, there are policies from above and countermeasures from below."

When Li Wei heard this, he couldn't help but shook his head in disappointment. Others might be able to use some secret means to fish in troubled waters, but he couldn't. Lao Zhu paid too close attention to him. Once he did anything that was against the rules, he would definitely hide it. Don't go there.

"Hey, no, I... I abide by the laws and disciplines, and I never do anything illegal."

Shen Jing admired him even more. He didn't expect Mr. Li to be so upright.

But if this is the case, he has no other good solution. The Ming Dynasty law stipulates that not only the officials themselves, but also their servants and relatives can't do it. Lao Zhu is very good at this.

At this time, Li Wei's heart moved and he said, "How about I package the Minghuang Chamber of Commerce, including the soap and soap formula, and sell it to Boss Shen?"

When Shen Jing heard this, he immediately said excitedly: "Master Li, are you sure to sell it?"

In his opinion, the secret recipe of Minghuang Chamber of Commerce and soap is a chicken that can lay golden eggs. Who would be stupid enough to sell it?

Li Wei had no choice. If he could sell it at a good price, selling it directly would be the easiest and most cost-effective way.

"As long as the price is right, we can negotiate."

"How much does Mr. Li want to sell?"

"One hundred thousand!"

Li Wei tried to give a price, but to be honest, he was a little too open-minded.

But Shen Jing pondered seriously for a moment. It was not that he felt that the Minghuang Chamber of Commerce was not worth the price. After all, it had an income of tens of thousands of dollars a year, and it would take only a few years for the money to be recovered.

However, he was afraid that he would not be able to catch it. He had heard that the Minghuang Chamber of Commerce was named by the emperor and competed with the emperor's store. Li Wei was the emperor's favorite. If he did this, the eunuchs in the emperor's store would also I don't dare to do anything, but if I win it, that's not necessarily the case.

Although the Shen family also has connections in the court, they are not a big shot. If he were to run the business, he would only be able to provide some benefits to the eunuchs to maintain the normal operation of the Minghuang Chamber of Commerce.

In fact, Shen Jing hopes to partner with Li Wei rather than buying it outright.

Seeing his hesitant expression, Li Wei thought his price was too high, so he thought about it and said, "If Boss Shen is interested, the price can still be negotiated."

"No, I'm afraid of leaving Mr. Li. I can't manage my own business well. Otherwise, I'm willing to pay [-] yuan and hold [-]% of the shares. Mr. Li, you still hold [-]%. I'm in charge of the Minghuang Chamber of Commerce. From now on, you only need to stay behind the scenes and come up with ideas, there is no need for you to come forward."

Li Wei frowned. After all, he still wanted to get involved. This must be considered collusion between government and businessmen, right?

"Hey, let me think about it again."

Li Wei sighed.

"Okay, don't worry."
