1423 Wealth is not revealed
It's just a few words, and I understand all the subtext. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Why did Liu hesitate to mention the Chinese's bad habit of storing gold and silver? In fact, to put it bluntly, it is to wake them up, to wake up these merchants, and make them realize how the bureaucrats have eaten their flesh and drunk their blood for thousands of years.
In China's unified feudal dynasty, commerce is the lowest layer of the four people, and it is rare in history to see a giant merchant who has died well, such as Shen Wansan and Hu Xueyan.
No matter how much credit you have made, as long as you are rich and rival the country, then you are the God of Wealth when you have use value, and when you have no use value, you are a fat pig, a fat pig that can be slaughtered at will.
The businessmen in Jiangnan have long understood this truth, for example, Sang Ye, no one knows how much property he has, even when there is trouble in the south, he just dragged his family and fled to Guangdong to avoid goods.
And the mulberry field in Sang Ye's family has been in a situation where no one has managed it for more than ten years, and whoever wants to occupy it can occupy it. But no one knew that Sang Ye was in that 10,000 acres of mulberry garden, and he had more than 100,000 taels of silver in the cellar, and these silvers and the title deed in his hand were the basis for his comeback.
Changmao was defeated, Sang Ye returned home, everything is not over yet, Sang Ye wants to recover the land that has been privately occupied by the chaotic people, it is not possible to rely on the government and the Hunan army, the 100,000 taels were all bribes and sent to the hands of layers of bureaucrats, including civil servants and military generals.
The floating wealth was exhausted, and Sang Ye finally recovered the fixed assets that belonged to him, and then the whole family was cautious of the elite, which led to the revival of the family in recent years.
It can be seen that people like Sang Ye have already found a way to survive in China's thousands of years of dynastic history. These untold secrets were the only way for the merchant class to survive in China.
Make money, and then hide the money, absolutely not show the wealth, or only reveal a small amount of wealth, and finally encounter natural and man-made disasters and wars or something, these floating wealth is the hope of family revival.
Always duckweed, always with the flow, no businessman can decide his own destiny.
Xiao Lotian knows them too well, they know what these people think and what they are afraid of, so Xiao Lotian will definitely not promote the stock market when he is stable and peaceful, because he knows that many rules in the stock market are contrary to the survival and development of these businessmen.
Listing is subject to the financial supervision of outsiders, and going public is equivalent to telling the whole world how much money they have, which are the things that businessmen fear the most.
But it happened to encounter this financial crisis, and this life-and-death money shortage forced the businessmen in Jiangnan to a dead end.
The so-called Tongzhi Zhongxing is not actually to say how powerful the Manchu court was, this economic recovery is actually just natural economic growth after the war.
The population has increased, the land has been deeply developed, and all walks of life have begun to recover in the hands of the industrious people, and the productive forces have been restored. That's all, this is not a real prosperous age, it is just the result of a soldier who has lost too much blood, temporarily stitches up the wound, and the normal hematopoietic function of the body appears.
It has been nine years since the end of the war, but it has only been four or five years since the sporadic war was completely ended.
Sang Ye, they still look beautiful from the outside, but compared with before the war, it is much worse, the floating wealth has basically been looted, and all the merchants' capital chains are very tight, which is why this money shortage has hit them so hugely.
Just imagine, if it weren't for the ten years of Taiping Heavenly Kingdom war, and the silver hidden in the cellars of the merchants in Jiangnan had not been lost, then this little crisis would be a fart! With the accumulation of their family for a hundred years, it would be enough to survive the famine.
All kinds of circumstances caused this very unique financial crisis, the factors of war, the clever timing of the node, the loopholes in the Manchu policy, and even the change of British prime minister, Xiao Lotian took into account.
A crisis, in exchange for the smooth launch of the stock market, even if those giant businessmen have worries and horrors in their hearts, but they have no choice when the capital chain is broken.
Xiao Letian's wine, they have to drink it, and they have to drink it if they don't drink it!
The financing is very smooth, but after the funds are in hand, the businessmen will start to think about the problem of security, such a big wealth is exposed to the sun, if those corrupt officials and bandits do not care about it, then there will be ghosts.
And who can protect them now? There is only one person, and that is Xiao Letian, and no one can count on him except him.
The banquet in the Huizhou restaurant lasted until midnight, and no one knew what Liu hesitated to agree with the heavy merchants, nor did he know how many promises Qiu Wei had brought to the prime minister, at least people knew that after midnight, after those merchants walked out of the restaurant, the expressions on their faces were as if they were resurrected with full blood.
How could Xiao Letian not protect them, these people are the source of power for the future Chinese war machine! The Chinese businessmen are indeed very powerful, but after all, their history is too short, and it is these ancient business families within the Qing Kingdom that really have a background.
Without Xiao Letian, these business families would gradually disappear in the long river of history, and no one would even remember their names. In fact, these centuries-old merchant families are not necessarily worse than those Jewish families, all they lack is a political environment that can support them, and an army that can protect them.
The merchants in Jiangnan didn't want to buy their own seagoing ships and sell their silk, tea, and porcelain to the whole world? Who wouldn't want to open their own family branch in Nanyang and Europe?
Who will help them realize these ideals, count on the Manchu Qing Dynasty, or count on foreigners? It is not possible, in the current world, they can only count on Xiao Letian, and only Xiao Lotian is willing to help them.
"Bosses, listen to me, don't leave Suzhou City in the last few days, and if there is no emergency, please stay for a few more days...... If the timing is correct, the prime minister will come to Suzhou in ten days, and those who are destined will definitely be able to meet at that time!"
At the entrance of the Huizhou restaurant, the businessmen who were about to say goodbye to the departure were amazed one by one: "The prime minister is coming? Oh my God! The prime minister is coming in ten days?"
Think about it, those promises made at the secret meeting just now, they were still a little unbelieving, but they didn't dare to question it at the moment, and all the businessmen agreed that they would not leave until the prime minister arrived in Suzhou.
Qiu Wei looked at the backs of the businessmen in the distance, and took a deep breath, "Unite all the forces that can be united, today is really enjoyable, on the chariot of the Chinese people, a group of God of Wealth is tied to it! Hahaha......"
