I was the emperor in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 549 The richest woman in Ming Dynasty?

Chapter 549 The richest woman in Ming Dynasty?
On the way back, Li Tian and the third wife took a carriage together.

Everyone else stayed away.

Li Tian didn't say much all the time, he just kept staring at the pretty face of the third lady.

Seeing that the third lady was a little embarrassed, she said angrily,

"Young Master Li stares at a new widow like this, isn't he afraid of your wife's taste?"

Hearing her mention Zhang Qinghuan, Li Tian's old face turned red immediately.

He smiled awkwardly, then said with a haha,

"Today's weather is not bad! It's very suitable for going out to get some fresh air."

The third lady covered her mouth with a coquettish smile and said,

"Just say what you want to say, don't think that the slave family can't see it, you actually have something to say to the slave family a long time ago!"

Li Tian smiled and nodded,
"Third Madam...ah no, it should be Miss Lin now...

You guessed right, I do have a lot of things I want to ask you. "

The third lady didn't speak, but turned her head and glanced at him.

Li Tian continued curiously,
"Are you really planning to let the Chai family go like this? I heard that Chai Xiong wanted to hurt you in the morning!"

The third lady said with an unchanged expression,
"In the past, the slave family didn't understand it, but now the slave family understands it thoroughly. Life is nothing more than a business.

Married, there is a dowry.

Work, get paid.

If someone helps you, you need to repay it!
Like it or not, that's how the world works.

The third son wished me to escape from the sea of ​​suffering. I spent three years helping the Chai family to accumulate such a large family business, and we owed nothing to anyone.

I can take revenge on the Chai family, and I have the ability to take revenge.

But in this way, even if he and the Chai family have become mortal enemies, why bother! "

"As the old saying goes, when is it time to repay the injustice? Even if the Chai family is in trouble today, there is no guarantee that the descendants will not make a fortune again. If they insist on seeking revenge from me, then I will have to sleep and eat every day."

"It's so good now, from now on, the whole Chai family will work for me, I can be beaten as much as I want, and they won't complain.

It's not only the best of both worlds to avenge, but not let people bear the grudge! "

After listening to her words, Li Tian chuckled,
"You think thoroughly. It is estimated that many monks in the old temples in the deep mountains are not as thorough as you. If you become a nun, you may be able to become a Buddha in three to five years!"

The third lady smiled foolishly,
"You're just talking nonsense, you just went to become a nun. I haven't enjoyed enough of this fancy world yet, the devil is willing to become a nun!"

Li Tian didn't know what to say, he just muttered blankly,

"Based on your appearance, even if you really become a nun, you are still a pretty nun. Don't say it, it's quite interesting to think about it!"

The third lady didn't seem to hear his whisper.

Turning to him, he said,

"The slave family distributed Liuli's business to the Chai family without your consent, Mr. Li. You won't blame the slave family for this, sir!"

Li Tianhuang was startled like a god, and then he laughed and said,

"It's just colored glaze, and it's not a big deal. Since I've given you full power to take care of it, you can do whatever you think is good, don't worry about it."

Having said that, he went on to say,
"Since you have left the Chai family, Chen Ji belongs to me completely. What I said to you before still counts. I promise you [-]% of the stock, and continue to be Chen Ji's steward!"

The third lady said in a teasing way,

"Before, because I had no place to go, I reluctantly agreed, but now I don't lack money or things to do. Why do I need to help you look at that dark workshop every day?"

Li Tian said solemnly,
"Chen Ji will not be just Chen Ji in the near future. I plan to build a new type of iron smelting workshop in several places in Daming at the same time. I need an experienced and trustworthy person to help me manage it. If you don't help me, I will We really can't find the right people."

The third lady frowned and said,

"Chen Ji's refined steel production is already almost half of the Ming Dynasty's annual production. If you build so many workshops at once, will they be used? Besides, the imperial court probably won't allow it!"

"You don't have to worry about this. I have a way to prevent anyone from hindering the progress of this matter. As for what to do with so much fine steel, you will probably know in less than a month.

Now I might as well tell you a little bit, this is a huge business worth over [-] million taels a year? "

One achievement of 1000 million taels is 100 million taels.

Based on Chen Ji's current annual income of 10,000+ taels, 1% is only more than [-] taels, and the third wife may really not care much about it.

With her means, why can't she make this little money.

But 100 million taels is different.

A prince like Zhao Wang Zhu Gaosui can only get 200 million taels a year by taking advantage of his power.

If she can earn 100 million taels a year, doesn't it mean that in a few years, she will become one of the top richest people in Ming Dynasty.

In this era, there are very few things that cannot be bought with money. Having a lot of money is equivalent to having great power.

For a businessman, especially a shrewd and shameless businessman, it is impossible for the third wife not to love money.

Even though she had many doubts in her heart, she still couldn't resist the temptation of such a huge sum of money.

With his eyes lost, he stepped forward excitedly and grabbed Li Tian's sleeve and said,
"Mr. Li's words are serious. Can you really make so much money in a year?"

Li Tian is naturally unwilling to give her so much money at once, but if it is really calculated, this number is only a lot more.

The prototype of the steam engine has been completed, and it will be able to go on board for a test in a while.

If the steamships are really as good as expected, it is foreseeable that at least a thousand steamships will be launched in the next year.

Calculated based on the cost price of three taels of silver per catty of refined steel that a boat needs to use five thousand catties, that is 500 million taels.

5% is naturally [-] taels.

Although the number of steamships in the first year may not reach so many.

However, whether it is mining, transportation, textiles, or road construction, steam engines are inseparable. The demand for steam engines will only be higher, not lower.

If Li Tian really opened up and paid her a salary, it would not be a problem for her to earn three or four million taels a year.

In this way, within two or three years, Daming's first multi-millionaire will appear, and she will also be the richest woman.

Li Tian is also looking forward to such an interesting and tempting thing.

"My son keeps his word. How about it? Are you willing to help me? If not, then I will find someone else."

"I am willing!"

Seeing her cautious money-lovers, Li Tian almost couldn't help laughing out loud.

But in the end, he suppressed his smile and said solemnly,

"However, the work of opening a workshop and training craftsmen in the early stage is very heavy and hard. Are you sure you can persist?"

"Of course, what are you afraid of working hard, as long as there are enough benefits, even if you sell the slave family, the slave family is willing."
