Rise of the Overlord

Chapter 215 Jin Dafu Jewelry

Su Yi heard that it was very difficult to buy the design drawings of a large aircraft carrier, so he hesitated and said to the steward Xiao Wenzhong: "The Datang Empire is designing an aircraft carrier with a displacement of about [-] tons based on the design drawings of a light aircraft carrier. So don’t give up on buying more advanced aircraft carrier design drawings, but the time is not so urgent, let us people in those seven countries slowly find relationships and don’t be afraid to spend money.”

There are seven countries in the world that have the ability to manufacture aircraft carriers. In addition to the Kingdom of Gothic, the Kingdom of Niga, and the Kingdom of Erru, which are ranked in the first echelon of strength, there are also four kingdoms in the second echelon of strength. Bero Kingdom, Peta Kingdom and Voto Kingdom.

The housekeeper Xiao Wenzhong nodded, and then looked at the small notebook in his hand, "Master, so far our people have purchased five street shops in prosperous areas in Chiyang City, the state capital of Qizhou, and the largest area has reached three." [-] square meters, and the smallest area is [-] square meters. In five or six days, the decoration of these five street shops can be completed, and the recruitment and training of personnel for the five Jin Dafu jewelry branches that will open soon All kinds of jewelry and gemstones for sale are ready, young master, do you set a time for the opening of these five branches?"

At present, in Dongchang City, the county capital of Dongchang County, Qizhou, Su Yi has opened four jewelry stores, and three jewelry stores in each of the five counties below Dongchang County, and the names of these nineteen jewelry stores, It was uniformly taken as Jin Dafu Jewelry by Su Yi.

Su Yi immediately said: "Wen Zhong, you can decide the opening time of the five stores in Chiyang City! In addition, there are six counties in Qizhou, and try to expand Jin Dafu to the other five counties as soon as possible. If the acquisition does not go well, You can buy stores like Chiyang City and open new stores. After the layout of Jindafu in Qizhou is completed, you can expand to other states. I hope that all the state capitals, county capitals and counties of the Han Kingdom can have our Jindafu Jewelry branch."

It can be said that Su Yi has very little confidence in the task given by the system to occupy the Han Kingdom within five years, but Su Yi is going to use these five years to create a foundation in the world of the Han Kingdom, and he will lose it by then Most of the functions of the system, relying on this foundation, can also deny the Datang Empire. According to the task punishment mentioned by the system, the function of the Stargate has not been cancelled.

The housekeeper Xiao Wenzhong said: "Don't worry, young master, I have already sent people to inspect the market in the other five counties of Qizhou. Within two months, our Jin Dafu should be able to open branches in the other five counties. And the county town, but if you want to open Jin Dafu to the entire Dahan Kingdom, you have to add more manpower to me, young master, after all, the security personnel of each branch needs to be taken care of by ourselves."

At present, there are only more than 2000 army-type combat clones summoned by Su Yi to the Han Kingdom, but in the system mall, the number of army-type battle clones that can be purchased has accumulated to more than 2000. The reason why they don’t buy more In order to avoid attracting the attention of interested people, the clone soldiers under Su Yi's command were mistaken for members of the rebel army.

Su Yi then said: "Now that most of the rebels have chosen to surrender to the local national defense forces, we should not be linked with the rebels. I will add another 5000 people to you in a while, but the [-] As for the issue of human identity, you have to figure out a solution by yourself.”

The housekeeper Xiao Wenzhong said with a smile: "Don't worry, young master, Jin Dafu still has some influence in the entire Dongchang County, not to mention that the household registration system of the Han Kingdom is not perfect, and the identity problem of 5000 people is easy to solve."

Su Yi went on to say: "By the way, you send people to establish another oil company, a coal company, and a grain company, and then elect the heads of these three companies. Jin Dafu, a jewelry company, you'd better elect as well." A person in charge, we will have so many businesses in the future that you can't manage it by yourself."

When the housekeeper Xiao Wenzhong heard this, he hurriedly asked pleasantly, "Master, do you have oil, coal and food in your hands?"

Su Yi smiled slightly: "From now on, I can produce one billion barrels of crude oil, 3000 million barrels of heavy oil, 3000 million barrels of diesel, [-] million barrels of gasoline, one billion tons of anthracite, [-] million tons of rice and [-] million tons of flour every month. Created three giant companies."

The housekeeper Xiao Wenzhong couldn't help swallowing his saliva. According to the current international crude oil price of about 400 Goths per barrel in the world, only one billion barrels of crude oil can sell 200 billion Goths a month, which is equivalent to 400 Goths. [-] million Chinese yuan, then [-] billion Chinese yuan can be sold in twelve months a year. This figure has exceeded the annual gross national product of the Han Kingdom.

The housekeeper Xiao Wenzhong said excitedly: "Master, with what you said, you can even change the economic structure of this world and control the economic lifeline of the entire world."

Su Yi said with a smile: "I have oil, coal, and food in my hand, but the problem is that I have to sell all these oil, coal, and food to exchange them for money, so I have to get rid of the oil company, coal company, and The establishment of the grain company, and the development of these three companies cannot be limited to the territory of the Han Kingdom, and the Han Kingdom alone cannot consume so much oil, coal, and grain in my hands."

The housekeeper Xiao Wenzhong pondered for a moment and said, "Master, oil, coal, and food are all related to the national economy and the people's livelihood, so it is best for oil companies, coal companies, and grain companies to be steady and steady, first to open up the situation in the Han Kingdom, and then seek to expand to other countries. In addition, in order to deceive others, it is best to acquire several oil fields, several coal mines and several large farms.”

Su Yi waved his hand and said, "You can plan for the development of those three companies by yourself. I will still be my shopkeeper, only responsible for supplying oil, coal and food."

The housekeeper Xiao Wenzhong looked down at the small notebook in his hand again, "Young master, there is one more thing, Wu Cheng, the sheriff of Dongchang County, just sent you an invitation two days ago, inviting you to attend the event held at the sheriff's mansion tomorrow night. You just came to the charity dinner, I wonder if you are planning to attend the charity dinner in person, or send someone to attend on your behalf?"

"Charity dinner? Where are you going to donate to?" Su Yi heard about the charity dinner, which aroused his curiosity.

"Master, the theme of this charity dinner is to raise funds for officers and soldiers who were disabled in the war, and there will also be a small charity auction."

"Then I'll join in the fun too. You help me choose two pieces of jewelry. Then, in the name of our Jin Dafu jewelry, they will also be sent to the charity auction for auction."

While Su Yi was talking to the housekeeper Xiao Wenzhong, in a study room of Dongchang County Governor's Mansion, Wu Chenggang, the governor of Dongchang County, respectfully said to a girl: "Your Highness, according to our investigation, that Jin Dafu Su Yi, the owner of the jewelry, is about 25 years old. He suddenly appeared in Dongchang City in May last year, and in just a few months, he became the largest jeweler in Dongchang County. In the county town, there are already 5 branches of Jindafu jewelry, and in the suburbs of Dongchang City, Su Yi also has a jewelry processing factory covering an area of ​​more than [-] square meters."

The girl in the study is Liu Lingwei, the eldest daughter of King Liu Lin of the Han Kingdom, who is equivalent to the eldest princess of the Han Kingdom. At the same time, Liu Lingwei is also the second heir to the throne of the Han Kingdom. In addition, Liu Lingwei is also the head of the Gold Preparation Department at this time.

The so-called Gold Preparation Department is actually such a department specially set up by the Han Kingdom to raise gold compensation for the Gothic Kingdom.

According to the armistice agreement signed between the Han Kingdom and the Gothic Kingdom, the Han Kingdom needs to compensate the Gothic Kingdom with a total of 20 tons of gold, which will be paid off in [-] years. The Dahan Kingdom needs to compensate the Gothic Kingdom with [-] tons of gold every year, and the armistice agreement also stated that the Gothic Kingdom only accepts gold and Gothic coins for war reparations, and does not accept other currencies.

Gothic currency is an internationally accepted currency in the world. The Han Kingdom originally had some reserves. However, in response to the invasion of the Gothic Kingdom, the Han Kingdom spent part of it to buy weapons from other countries. For the indemnity in 1668 of the Han calendar, the Gothic currency reserves of the Han Kingdom had already been exhausted. In the war indemnity in 1669 of the Han calendar, the Han Kingdom took out 1670 billion Gothic coins and 20 tons of gold.

You must know that the Han Kingdom did not have much gold reserves, and a lot was robbed by the Gothic army during the war, so the Han Kingdom had to find a way to raise gold.

In the international gold market, if you want to buy gold, it is not easy to use Chinese yuan. Basically, you can only use Gothic coins. Not to mention Gothic coins, the reserves of Nicacoins and Olucoins have already bottomed out, so the Han Kingdom can only find a way to raise gold in the country.

On the one hand, increase the amount of gold mining in various domestic gold mines, and on the other hand, purchase gold domestically. This has also caused the price of gold in the Han Kingdom to break through to [-] Han Yuan per gram in a short period of time. The task of the Gold Preparation Department is to The Han Kingdom purchased gold from the private sector.

The Eldest Princess Liu Lingwei asked in a deep voice to Wu Chenggang, the Governor of Dongchang County: "Mr. Wu, have you found out about that Su Yi's origin?"

Wu Chenggang shook his head and said, "Your Highness, I haven't found any useful clues. What I can find is extremely limited. I only know that Su Yi's ancestral home is Huazhou, and he has businesses in many countries around the world."

The Eldest Princess Liu Lingwei sighed and said: "Tomorrow's charity dinner, if Su Yi comes, you can make arrangements for me to meet with him, hoping to buy a batch of gold from him. This year, the tasks of our gold preparation department are still a little bit less." There is no whereabouts!"

Wu Chenggang said: "Your Highness, since Su Yi can sell ten tons of gold to the Dahan Industrial and Commercial Bank, five tons of gold to the Gothic Huitong Bank, and open so many jewelry stores, it must be in his hands. There is also a lot of gold reserved, Her Royal Highness will definitely get a good start!"

Eldest Princess Liu Lingwei said: "I hope that Su Yi still has more than ten tons of gold in his hands. The task of raising gold this year will be very difficult."

Wu Chenggang hesitated for a moment and asked, "Your Highness, what is the task of the Gold Preparation Department this year?"

The Eldest Princess Liu Lingwei said with a wry smile: "Prime Minister Feng has given the gold preparation department a task of [-] tons of gold this year."

Wu Chenggang couldn't help being stunned: "This... this is too much. If we buy [-] tons of gold from the private sector this year, it will definitely cause the domestic gold price to soar again. Can't we think of a way in foreign exchange?"

The eldest princess Liu Lingwei said sadly: "Through a series of agreements, the Gothic Kingdom has almost controlled the foreign trade of our Dahan Kingdom. Otherwise, our Dahan Kingdom won't only get 20 billion Goth coins last year. The foreign exchange that we can get this year Not too much, we can only find ways to raise more gold."

Wu Chenggang sighed and said: "Although the garrison of the Gothic Kingdom in our Dahan Kingdom is decreasing, the influence of the Gothic Kingdom on our Dahan Kingdom is increasing day by day. Let's talk about the Huitong Bank of the Goths. It has been opened in all the cities of our Han Kingdom, which has brought a considerable impact to several national banks of our Han Kingdom."

The eldest princess Liu Lingwei shook her head and said: "There is no way, who made our Han Kingdom defeated. Although the Gothic Kingdom has stopped its military aggression, it has intensified its economic aggression. Not only the banking industry, but many of our Han Kingdom The industry has been impacted by Gothic enterprises. Last year, thousands of factories closed down, and many of them were large factories. Alas—”

Wu Chenggang said helplessly: "Our Dongchang City closed down eight factories last year, and it also includes the Dongchang Textile Factory with more than 8000 employees. Maybe even more factories will close down this year. My head hurts trying to house those unemployed."

The eldest princess Liu Lingwei gritted her teeth and said: "No matter how difficult it is, our Han Kingdom must persevere. The Gothic Kingdom has added many things to our Han Kingdom, and our Han Kingdom must double it back in the future!"

Wu Chenggang smiled wryly, and did not continue the eldest princess Liu Lingwei. In fact, in Wu Chenggang's heart, he knew very clearly that according to the comparison of the strengths of the Han Kingdom and the Gothic Kingdom, perhaps within the next few decades, or even hundreds of years, the Han Kingdom None of them have the strength to seek revenge from the Gothic Kingdom.

"By the way, Your Royal Highness, will you attend the charity dinner tomorrow night?"

"Since the charity dinner tomorrow night is to raise donations for the disabled officers and soldiers in the war, I must attend the princess if I catch up. In addition, I will take out a piece of my own jewelry and put it in the charity auction for auction."
