378 Woohoo
A city, three years to take off economically, Tingfang is not sure if it can be done, but she is confident. China has a history of finance, and since Guan Zhong, there have been financial means. Stretching for thousands of years, many things have changed without changing the medicine. Now that the Yan Dynasty uses copper coins, Tingfang decided to learn from Zhu Yuanzhang and make a batch of exquisite copper coins, which are heavy enough and gorgeous enough to be valuable. Compared to the current rags, it is definitely worth the money. In order to obtain copper coins, merchants will come to Jiangxi regardless of difficulties and dangers and take this specialty away.
In later generations, someone who engaged in training said a sentence that Tingfang thought deeply - in the business society, telling the truth and not fooling can't make money, but when 99% of the entire industry is fooling, and you are the only one doing practical things? Although it turned out later that the product was also a big fool, in the era of bad comparison, a clear stream suddenly appeared, at least in terms of marketing, it can win the battle. Not only Zhu Yuanzhang, but the currency of the liberated areas is also very stable, and the gold yuan coupon wipes the fart. When the stock market is too strong, the stability of the liberated areas can attract many business opportunities and information, and bring prosperity to the liberated areas.
Merchants don't come empty-handed, they bring goods; Neither do the merchants go away empty-handed, nor do the thieves go empty, nor do they go empty. Once and again, the tertiary industry on the dock will rise first. Jiangxi has world-famous porcelain, and there are a wide range of trade routes, Ting Fang Zhengse said to Xu Jingchang: "Just one, there can be no water bandits on the water." โ
Xu Jingchang said: "You can really give me a problem, the navy is not easy to practice." โ
Ting Fang said: "There is a fleet at sea, and the naval army will have to train sooner or later, and we still have to fight a naval battle." โ
Xu Jingchang said: "Things can't all be crowded together, didn't you talk about Emperor Yang of Sui last time, if someone else did the imperial examination system, the three provinces and six ministries system and the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, he is the emperor of the ages." โ
Ting Fang pouted: "He doesn't do more than three." He was not completely innocent in repairing the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, and he damaged Jiangbei to Feijiangnan, and Jiangbei was bound to rebel. Don't mention that, I want to do it one by one, I'm afraid that your Royal Highness won't have so much effort and so on. In case he is really cleaned up by the prince, we will really usurp it. "The surging tide of thought of the Great Revolution abroad has not yet been introduced, and the people of this land are still accustomed to having an emperor. It is unrealistic to engage in a republic now.
Xu Jingchang chuckled: "It's too difficult, don't do it!" "The dispatch of thousands of troops and horses is indeed beautiful, and even men feel refreshed. After adjusting and looking at the consequences, I was only full of sorrow. Man's mind will change, but at least now he can't enjoy the speed of life and death. Feel. Let's talk about it in the future.
After the floods in several provinces, many military families fled. After escaping for a while and running out of food, he joined forces with the ruffians and hooligans and became water bandits. Therefore, recently, bandits have been rampant on the river, which has seriously hindered the development of Nanchang. The waterway is the lifeline of Jiangxi's economy and military, and if they can't control the waterway, they still play with eggs! Although Xu Jingchang felt embarrassed, he still kept this matter in mind. It is not possible to eliminate the bandits, but at least have an armed force to protect the large fleet, and by the way, to cover for a future detour to attack the capital.
The military threw it to Xu Jingchang, and Ting Fang still looked at her big farm. After several months of preparation, the mulberry garden and loquat garden are ready, but the harvest is not available for the time being. The young geese are scurrying around the garden, saving a lot of fertilizer. In the ancient environment, chickens were not very easy to raise, and they were prone to plague when they were locked up. Therefore, the farm has the least number of chickens and the most ducks. Along the lower reaches of the Gan River, ducks were raised in nets at each section. In order to stimulate the economy, Tingfang had to abandon the state-owned factory model and replace it with a contract system. Only her fruit fly factory can be converted into a state-owned enterprise in the future. Fruit flies are really easy to raise, but the farmer is not as good as Tingfang to try his best to control the temperature and humidity, and it is always good to raise a few pocket money at will. Tingfang doesn't care, the advantages of scale are there, the picture of raising ducks is cheap to retail investors, but they are still afraid that retail investors will not be able to supply enough, and it is very trivial, and the slightly larger farms are still used to asking Tingfang for goods.
Such a change was unexpected by Ting Fang, but it was also a good thing. Ting Fang is not a businessman after all, although he wants to make money to feed the army, but being a big businessman is not the goal. The activity of self-employed people can stimulate the economy, and Tingfang is still very happy to see that everyone is trying to make money.
What was even more unexpected was that Liu Yongnian actually replied to Tingfang's letter. Liu Yongnian is mainly engaged in silk, and he makes a lot of money doing business with foreigners, and then recruits and buys horses, while being a rich man, and on the other hand, he sees the opportunity to see if he can mix โกโก dang. He has abundant capital, but he can't sell silk for a while, and he is not afraid of pressing the goods, and he wants as much silk as he wants in the two provinces of Anhui and Jiangsu. and then sold it to foreigners, which can be regarded as taking away all the business routes that Xu Jingchang worked so hard to open up that day. Huaiyang has been rich since ancient times, and there is a transit station here, and merchants gather when they board. There are more guests, more consumption, the inn Qinglou is full every day, and the fat duck and goose do not know how much to consume a day.
Liu Yongnian was proud of the spring breeze, he had been pressed by Ting Fang, and turned over in an instant to be Party A, and suddenly remembered that the prime minister could hold the boat in his belly, and readily promised to give Ting Fang a chance. Huaiyang is his old nest, accumulated over several generations, and it is not comparable to Xu Jingchang's weakness. Yi always asked for Tingfang's ducks, and then he made people distribute them, although he didn't make much, but it was a livelihood. Many of the poor in the clan took it, and they could get a share of the profits, and they would be more obedient to him.
Ting Fang and Liu Yongnian are old enemies, and they have cooperation and confrontation, but when they have the opportunity to make money together, they don't care about their previous suspicions. After finalizing the sales channel of the duck, Tingfang was very happy and felt that she was a little closer to the small goal.
The weather began to be hot, and Ting Fang expected that the ducks would begin to enter the spawning period, so she placed a large order with the salt merchant. In her agreement with the contractor, the ducks belong to the farmers, and eighty percent of the duck eggs belong to her, and the right to be taxed. Tingfang is now the emperor of Nanchang, she wants to collect taxes, and what she wants is not outrageous, so everyone has to go with her. Of course, as a conduit for selling ducks, she has to take a dip. The advantage of the contract system is that Tingfang does not have a penny, and the duck eggs and sales of the fruit fly factory are profitable. Only such benefits, ordinary people can't get them, but it is actually the prerogative of the emperor of the soil. It can be seen that it is too easy for the powerful to exchange money.
By July, Nanchang had returned to its previous state. Merchants from the north and south are here again. The rails connecting to the pier came in handy. The railroad tracks covered the main road of Nanchang, and many clever residents added a staircase to the side of the house, crowded their families on the second floor, and turned the first floor into an inn. A family of four can rent eight to twelve acres of land, and the man alone will grow all the staple grains and vegetables. The woman ran a small inn at home with her children, and the small family soon became prosperous. On the day of buying a house, the method of queuing and lottery was implemented, and some of the locations were not good, so they made meals and sold them on the street, which could also make some money.
The Xu family's fleet arrived in Jiangxi again, this time bringing the Jenny machine that Tingfang said in February, as well as the cotton bought along the way. Jun Zimo rarely recited the Buddha: "It's finally here!" โ
Previously, Tingfang assigned tasks, Junzi Mo got the spinning mill, and Cuirong and several girls jointly managed the farm. I don't know that the mulberry tree is raised slowly, and the silkworm still doesn't know where it is. The legendary silk reeling factory and spinning mill are nowhere to be seen, and everyone has their own business, but she is the only helper everywhere. Seeing that Cuirong is becoming more and more stylish, she also wants to have a place to have fun. It was easy to wait for the loom and cotton to come, and she fished out the instructions first. I followed Tingfang to learn English for more than half a year, where can I understand it? I put the manual in my sleeve and grabbed Hawk all over the world.
Hawke has been more depressed lately than ever. Tingfang kindly transferred someone to help him build a church, the conditions were difficult, and it was temporarily wooden. But it's decently furnished. This is the remuneration for the mass production of fruit flies, and no one owes anyone money and goods. But the church was built, but no one came! Nanchang is like a big spinning top, and everyone is busy making money. A large amount of land tied up the men, and thirty percent of the tax revenue made everyone hopeful, and they got up early and worked greedily at night. If the land cannot be distributed, the wharf can be used as a porter. The female dependents are busy raising fruit flies to do manual subsidies for the family. Who is impatient to come to church to pray? It's not that there are no idlers, but people believe in Bodhisattvas more! There is even more annoying people, I heard that Christ is monogamous, but many women want to believe, but they were arrested by their husbands two days later! In these years, only rich wives can be idle, and rich men usually have groups of wives and concubines, and this evil must not be tolerated. Teach to run rampant. It wasn't for the sake of Hawke's good relationship with Tingfang, he would have smashed his church a long time ago.
Hawke looked at the sparse crowd in the church, and was full of melancholy, when he saw Junzimo rushing in. Well, the guy who was looking for him to work is here again! Anyone who mixes with Tingfang doesn't have a good thing! Not a single one!
The gentleman smiled and showed a mouthful of white teeth, and said a standard blessing to Hawke. Hawke waved his hand angrily: "You are more pleasing to me, I haven't seen you for a few days, and you are darker." โ
Junzi Mo said: "I complain about my father, the name is not good, it is called very black ink." Just look at the name of the county lord, the flowers and plants are just getting better and better in the sun, and when I see her running around the city all day long, I just can't tan. But I'm a widow, and it doesn't matter if it's black or not. โ
Hawke: "......, why are you so cheerful when you mention the word widow?" Is it because of the "determination to be widowed" that you can refuse the endless courtship? Huaxia is really a strange land, why can a dead man be commended for not marrying?
After a few words of gossip, the gentleman returned to the topic, slapped the manual on the table, and said to Hawke: "Father, help me translate it." โ
Hawke looked at the thick stack and felt a little sore: "Where is your county lord?" โ
"I didn't find it," Junzimo said with a grin, "You translate for me, and I will find what you want." How about equivalent exchange to your liking? โ
Hawke complained, "I don't want anything. I wonder why all of you, as if you're being chased by a wolf, won't stop for a minute to listen to me preach the Bible? โ
Junzi Mo smiled dryly: Our ancestors said that the son was silent and wonderful...... Quickly diverted the conversation and said, "Father, help me!" โ
Hawke was idle, took the instruction manual and said: "I can't write your crooked words, you go get a pen and paper, and I'll read and write for you." โ
Junzimo secretly complained: Whose words are crooked? Obviously, our words are square! Spit and complain, it is indeed unrealistic to expect Hawke to write as a foreigner. Jun Zimo took out a copper pen from his sleeve, asked Hawke for paper, and began to write. While writing, I also thought in my heart, I had to find a literate person to copy with a brush when I went out, and the handwriting of the province was called grinding.
Because of the pursuit of efficiency by the people of Tingfang's family, it is easy to use copper pipe pens. There are some literate people guarding the door all year round, and from time to time they can get the job of copying. In particular, they only need to write accurately and neatly, and they don't care about the charm of the pen, and many scholars squat at the door after school to earn a little money to subsidize their families.
Just when Nanchang was thriving, the capital was once again in crisis. 166 Reading Network
