Chapter 5: The End of the Wicked
The rest follows the bear's script. First they bought houses for pearls and pearls, and then they bought people and fields for them. Of course, this qiē is all fake. The Sun family, pearls, and jewels are all women, where have these things been done, these were all done by maids, housekeepers or Xu Jizu before. Xu Jizu is dead, so they can only rely on Yan Shen and Yan Yong. Yan Shen and Yan Yong made up their minds to cheat money, so they naturally coaxed the two sisters into obedience.
After two months, the silver around the orb and the pearl gradually ran out. Sun had no opinion, because the money was used to buy houses, fields, and shops, especially those shops that had already started to pay rent every month. This naturally made the Sun family very satisfied, thinking that they had finally gotten rid of the situation of sitting and eating empty, and they would just wait to enjoy happiness in the future.
However, next, Zhou Xiong and Yan Shen, Yan Yong kept bringing low-priced shops for them to buy, they were greedy for cheap, and they had no money on hand, so they had to let Yan Yong accompany the Sun family on a trip to the capital, and those belongings were kept in the capital. Yan Yong followed them to learn that these things, including jewelry, treasures, ornaments, calligraphy and paintings, and antiques, were all stored in a bank in the capital. There is a depository business, of course the rent is expensive, and the voucher is a bill issued by the recognizer and the bank. This person is Sun's, she said a string of numbers, this number was said behind Yan Yong's back, so Yan Yong didn't know that this bill was collected by Sun's. Sun only took a small part of what was easy to sell, and the rest was still kept.
After Yan Yong came back, he discussed with Yan Shen and Zhou Xiong, and Zhou Xiong said: "In this way, it can't be over, this little bit of squeezing, when will it have to be squeezed?" By the way, did you see how much else there was. ”
Yan Yong said: "See, we didn't even take out one-twentieth of what we took out this time, I was wrong in my previous estimate." Now I estimate that there are about 178,000 taels of silver. ”
"Snort" Zhou Xiong gasped and said, "This is really more profitable than me opening a casino and a brothel." In the past two months, we have each received more than 10,000 taels of silver, and there are still 170,000 or 80,000 taels of silver. Shall we not be able to divide another fifty or sixty thousand taels of silver among ourselves? After this ticket is finished, you can collect the mountain and become a rich man. ”
Yan Yong and Yan Shen were also on fire. At this time, Zhou Xiong's mind turned and he came up with an idea and said: "I have an idea now, it's better to do this, we told them that a good project can only be done with a lot of money." It is sea trade, which was originally a business done by people in Jiangnan, for the past two years. With the rise of Shanghai City, too many people became rich overnight because of sea trade, and I heard that the profit of sea trade was ten times the profit. It's just that to start this business, it takes a lot of money, because it is necessary to buy routes. I also have to buy ships, buy goods, hire men, sailors, no matter how you calculate it, it will cost 200,000 taels of silver, and now I will take out 50,000 taels of silver. Tell them to take out 150,000 taels of silver, and we will do a sea trade business, and we can earn all of them back when we go to sea. You go down to the water and grind kung fu and talk about it. ”
Yan Yong was more strategic, and thought about it: "This is okay, I heard the two sisters say that this sea trade business." They've been hot for a long time. It's just that I never had a chance to do it. Yan Shen and I will definitely be able to move these two sisters, but there is still a big obstacle to this, that is, their mother Sun. This old witch is the most cunning. Seeing that money is tight, and she has been the wife of the county order, she looks down on us very much, what should I do? ”
During this period of time, Zhou Xiong often went to the homes of the jewels, and he was familiar with them, and he had seen Sun a few times and said: "Actually, this Sun is not very old, maybe less than forty years old, plus good maintenance, it looks like he is in his early thirties, and his skin is as tender and white as the Jiangnan people, and he still looks like a beauty." Her age is like a wolf and a tiger, this is a long time, must not be able to withstand the temptation, I have a friend, he is the best hand, I asked him to hook up with the Sun family, it's easy to say, how about it? ”
Yan Yong laughed and said, "Senior brother, this is a good idea, so let's do it." ”
In this way, Zhou Xiong went to be a guest one day, brought a friend, elegant and elegant, in his forties, fell in love with Sun at first sight, hooked up a few times, Sun was put on it, two like glue, this person and Sun blew the pillow wind, Yan Yong and Yan Shen said to the two sisters of Baozhu, this sea trade thing has become, originally Baozhu was still a little hesitant, after all, this time it was to take out all the family funds, but she saw that Zhou Xiong took the lead in taking out 50,000 taels of silver, and suddenly did not hesitate, so she took out everything at once, Take off Zhou Xiong and sell.
As soon as Zhou Xiong's money and goods arrived, he immediately shared the money with Yan Yong and Yan Shen. The two of them flew away, and before leaving, they made a note and made a contract to sell the mother and daughter to Zhou Xiong. Baozhu and the others were still in the dark, one day, Yan Shen took the child away, the three of them were at a loss, Zhou Xiong showed the deed of sale, took the three mother and daughter away, first played in his own house for a few days, and after getting tired of it, he put it in his own brothel, and it actually became a red card.
This is also the retribution of Baozhu and others.
Wen Hui didn't know this, she dealt with the affairs of Shanghai City, returned to Qingyang City, and arranged the affairs of Qingyang City. First of all, she sold all the fields and properties in Huzhou, because she was not in a hurry, and everyone looked at her father's face, and she didn't sell it cheaply, and gave the money at the market price. The value of these lands has increased over the years, because of the promotion of new seeds, the yield per mu has gone up, and the price of natural land has also gone up. After Wen Hui sold the land, he sold all the shops in Ancheng, Deqing City, and Qingyang City. Because I had a good eye when I bought the shop, and these shops have appreciated in value, I sold them at a price that I was very satisfied with.
After these are dealt with, but the restaurant, Cuijin Building, and the wine shop, the incense shop can not be sold, fortunately, the business is good, so I instructed Qingjian and Bishui to take time to go to Yizhou Island to build another wine mill and down jacket factory, so that in the future, the work will be slowly moved to Yizhou Island, these two workshops, and then sell them at the right opportunity, and they can deal with this qiē quietly. Wen Hui made up her mind, taking advantage of the fact that her father was still an official in the past few years, and slowly transferred her property, after all, her family was the hereditary city lord of Xinguang City, and it would be good to live on Yizhou Island in the future.
After doing this qiē, Wen Hui returned to Shanghai City, made a sea boat to reach the estuary, and then arrived at the capital from the Yellow River, so that he was not tired. In Shanghai, Wen Hui deposited all the money in the bank, and told Wan Shuhui that the silver would be transported back to Yizhou Island in a short time, which was the silver to build Yizhou Island.
In addition to this part, Wen Hui also instructed Wan Shuhui that since she became a financial officer in Shanghai, she would have the opportunity to contact more people, and slowly dispose of the shops in Suzhou City, as well as all the shops and houses in Shanghai City, as well as her own and family, and her current residence in Shanghai City, which was originally assigned to them, should not be sold, and would be used as a foothold in the future. The rest was slowly turned into silver or goods, and slowly transported back to Yizhou Island.
As for the three granges of their family in Heyang Prefecture, because they are too conspicuous, everyone is staring at them, and a large number of medicinal materials are produced every year, so they will be put away first, anyway, the money for buying land has already doubled and earned back.
Now Wen Hui has calculated that more than 400,000 taels of silver have been recovered from the property that has been processed in her hands alone. If we dispose of the shops in Shanghai and Suzhou, how much money will it cost? I'm afraid I have to have nearly two million taels of silver? You must know that the shop in Suzhou alone cost more than 200,000 taels to buy at the beginning, but it was a leak at the beginning, and the actual price at that time was nearly 500,000 taels. It has been another two years, and the people sent by Wen Hui have taken good care of those shops, and they have increased in value, and it is estimated that they can sell slowly for nearly 700,000 taels of silver. The houses and shops in Shanghai City were bought in every issue, and the total cost was nearly 800,000 taels. Wen Hui's own capital is nearly 300,000 taels. In the past two years, the price of shops in Shanghai City has become higher and higher, because there are more and more buyers, but there are no shops, especially in the prime area of the first and second phases, which cannot be bought with money. If all of these are sold, it is normal to double. In this way, the family can recover nearly 1.6 million taels. I can also have 600,000 taels, and if I sell it slowly, maybe it will be higher than this. If all this money is invested in the construction of Yizhou Island, it will definitely make the construction of Yizhou Island better. As for Jiangnan, the emperor will be unhappy in the future, saying that he can take it away, which is too unstable. It's better to deal with it earlier.
Of course, if all these are dealt with, it is estimated that it will take two years. When all these things are dealt with, it is likely that the construction of his own workshop on Yizhou Island will be completed, and the focus of work will be shifted, so as to ensure that he will be invincible in the future struggle.
Finally, there are those granges in Heyang Prefecture, which is not in a hurry, and when this qiē is ready, I will find a big family in the capital and sell all the land at once, and it is estimated that it can be sold for more than 300,000 taels of silver. It's not a loss. Actually, Wen Hui doesn't want the land of the Central Plains at all now, there are so many ownerless lands overseas, and it's incredibly cheap, why are you still guarding this land here? It's better to sell it and go to Nanyang to get more land.
After Wen Hui made the arrangement, she left Luya to do these things with Wan Shuhui in Shanghai, and she went to the capital by boat.
