Chapter 230: The First Smell of Speculation
The next day, when the sky was slightly bright, Jiang Hua took Su Ying to his grandfather Xu Sheng's study to meet him.
"Hua'er, you're here!"
Xu Sheng, who had a somewhat gloomy face, laughed out loud when he saw Jiang Hua, and he could see that he was really happy.
"Well, grandpa, yesterday's incident..."
"I know everything about yesterday, it's Xu Fu who doesn't know it, you don't have to worry about it. ”
Xu Sheng said with relief.
"Grandpa, I think you misunderstood. Jiang Hua was speechless for Xu Sheng as a matter of course that he was wrong, he may be angry with Xu Ziming, but he will not be able to deal with this grandfather.
"Oh, is there any twist or turn in between?"
"If he hadn't been my cousin, he'd be a corpse by now by the way he dared to run into Shadow. Those cold words made people have no doubt about his determination, and at the same time, Xu Sheng was furious.
I saw him slap the table and shout, "Did you talk to the elders like this?"
Su Ying was not only moved by Jiang Hua's maintenance, but also worried that she would anger her great-grandfather and didn't know how to end it, seeing the conflict between the two, she hurriedly curryed favor with her great-grandfather and said: "It's all Xiaoying's fault, great-grandfather don't be angry with your father." ”
Borrow the slope to get off the donkey and slide down the pole. When people are old, they pay special attention to family affection, and after listening to the soft words of his great-granddaughter, he diverted the topic and said: "This matter is over, how did you feel when you first came to Jinling?"
"Hmm... It's very lively, compared with the wind. ”
"Yes, it's very lively, very lively! I don't know if you've ever heard of grass disease?" Xu Sheng abruptly changed the subject.
"Grass infestation?"
Seeing Jiang Hua's confusion, he explained: "There is an island country to the east of the east coast, the country name: "grass", the so-called grass plague, that is, many wandering warriors in the grass country wantonly attacked and plundered the coastal areas of the Han Dynasty, and even more so, many Han people pretended to be grass cowards and made a fortune, making the grass plague more and more intense. At the end, Xu Sheng's tone was a little angry.
Jiang Hua nodded, and as a qualified listener, he spoke: "
I wonder what this grass plague has to do with Jinling?"
"Providence built a port on the coast south of the Yangtze River to train the navy, which had always been strong, to turn defense into offense, and to completely eliminate the grass plague. ”
"Your Majesty is indeed very bold this time......
Jiang Hua didn't speak, and Xu Sheng continued: "At the same time, the location of the port will be promoted to the eastern capital, and the imperial court officials will be appointed to manage Jiangnan, so as to provide the strongest backing for the construction and operation of the port. ”
Speaking of this, Jiang Hua was a little moved: "What do you mean?"
Seeing that his grandson understood, Xu Sheng said happily: "Yes, the location of this eastern capital is very likely to be Jinling!"
"Is this a matter settled?"
"Not yet, but our four major business families in Jiangnan have confirmed a fact through various relationships: it is very likely that the eastern capital is in Jinling, just waiting for His Majesty's decree. The reason why Jinling is so lively is that people from all major families in the south of the Yangtze River come here to snap up shops!"
"Originally, an ordinary shop in Jinling was only one hundred taels of silver, although Jinling was large, but there were 500 shops on the sky, and now a general 500 taels of silver is not sold. ”
Seeing such a huge difference in prices, Jiang Hua couldn't help but wonder: "After so many times, aren't they afraid that they will end up smashing their hands? After all, this is just inconclusive news!"
"Do you know how much an ordinary shop in Gale sells for?"
Jiang Hua, who is on the rich plane, has never felt anything about business, so he just shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”
"2,000 taels of silver for an ordinary shop, and even as high as 10,000 taels of silver for a good location. And Jinling, which is about to be upgraded to the eastern capital, has such a low shop price and so much profit in the middle, what do you think businessmen will do?"
Suddenly hearing such a big gap, Jiang Hua suddenly realized, "Naturally, the price will continue to rise, but there are only 500 shops, no matter how much it rises, there is a limit after all, and the total profit is not large." ”
"The shops are just small heads, and the real big heads are in the houses. ”
Jiang Hua nodded clearly, not that he couldn't think of it, but that he didn't think about it at all.
"Now an ordinary house in Jinling is 20 taels of silver, and the total number of properties is nearly 80,000. And an ordinary house in Gale is 100 taels of silver a room. Thinking of the interests involved, even Xu Sheng, who is the richest businessman in Jiangnan, couldn't help but breathe heavily.
You must know that the war horses used in the army are only 20 taels of silver each, and a small part of the profits can be used to build tens of thousands of cavalry for the Han Kingdom.
Jiang Hua, who had been an emperor, didn't think that the emperor who had the courage to build a navy would not see this point, so he asked casually: "I don't know how much the war horses in the army cost?"
"20 taels of silver a horse! I wonder why Hua'er asks this?"
Jiang Hua just shook his head and didn't say much, if he said that the heir of the three generations of the Xu family had seen it too much, he might still remind him, but only Xu Fu was a finished calf, and he had no interest in reminding him at all.
When he heard that the price of the war horse was 20, Jiang Hua instantly understood that this was definitely a game, and the big dealer behind the scenes was the emperor himself. Everything is true, only the location is Jinling is fake, even if Jinling is the most qualified, it is also fake, because most of the property rights of Jinling houses are in the skyrocketing housing prices
It is definitely in the hands of the emperor, and he needs to make a fortune to alleviate the financial crisis.
More importantly, a large number of families involved in house speculation have mortgaged their properties to the money bank for the purpose of house speculation, and the largest money bank is the royal money bank.
At the time of parting, Jiang Hua emphasized to Xu Sheng again: "Grandpa, please inform Xu Fu, take care of yourself, I will really kill him next time!"
"You!"
Xu Sheng, who was chatting and was in a good mood, went away in an instant.
"I brought the sword of Shang Fang that my mother gave me, and killing a gentleman is as easy as eating and drinking. ”
After finishing speaking, he ignored Xu Sheng, who was pale, and pulled Jiang Suying away. As for the back pain, he has used his strong spiritual power to strengthen and repair the damaged bones in his waist, Xu Ziming's worries have been resolved, and there are not so many vains and grievances.
Jiang Hua, who returned to the guest room, resounded in his mind what Xu Sheng said today, and he was a little hesitant: "Do you want to intervene to tell the emperor about the conditions?"
In a moment, his spirit moved, and Wei Xian, who was still wiping his ass for the matter of Jiangling, changed his face, and finally put down the matter at hand as if he was resigned, and ordered a few of his subordinates to continue, and he rode a fast horse alone and ran towards Jinling non-stop.
At night, outside Jinling City, Wei Xian, who looked tired, knelt respectfully: "I don't know why the Lord is so eager to summon me here?"
"There are 100 prosthetic eyes here, I want you to insert all the important corners of the imperial city in three days!"
A fake cigarette has 10 merits, and 1000 merits are just a drizzle for the current Jiang Hua. The function of the prosthetic eye is also very simple: observe a radius of 100 meters, and the time limit is 3 months.
