Chapter 213: Heart-to-heart

Huang Zhiting's last sentence makes sense, but it is not.

The women of this era, in the words of the "Book of Rites", are "women, those who follow people, young from father and brother, marry from husband, husband from son", even if she helped her father successfully move to the town, and even helped her younger brother to get a foreign Qinghua, but theoretically her own Anbang Xuanfu Division also belonged to the Huang family before she got married, and it was reasonable to be a dowry after marriage, but it should belong to her son after death.

According to the provisions on inheritance in the "Daming Huidian", in fact, for Huang Zhiting, this inheritance was earned by her future son, and it doesn't matter who her husband is - as long as she has a son, this "dowry" will eventually belong to her son, unless she has no queen, it will belong to her husband's family.

But when she said this, it didn't mean that she didn't understand the ultimate issue of "property ownership", she just said that in her heart, Anbang was nominally hers, and in fact, Gao Pragmatism could decide everything.

Perhaps with a high and pragmatic net worth, he can think that the value of this dowry is average, but he knows that this affection is not ordinary.

For him, it's just "a part", and for Wong, it's "the whole thing".

Gao Pragmatic stretched out his hand to caress Huang Zhiting's head, and said softly: "If I am really honest, how can I be embarrassed to accept such a valuable dowry from you...... What am I going to do as a dowry? ”

Huang Zhiting said seriously: "If Anbang's coal mines are really as much as you said, I think we can't spend the money we can earn just by digging coal in ten lifetimes, in that case, what's the point of the dowry?" ”

Well, if Gao Shishi didn't have such a great cause as saving Ming in his heart, Huang Zhiting would indeed have no problem with this. Her Anbang Xuanfu Division is almost the Quang Ninh Province of Vietnam in the future, nothing else, coal reserves alone, conservatively estimated to have more than 6.5 billion tons, this is still based on Vietnam's shit-like exploration level, when and what month can it be dug up? Moreover, in addition to coal, there are also many minerals such as iron, copper, and zinc, but there are better places to obtain these minerals, so they are too lazy to develop.

Not to mention that this place is actually rich in land, forests, seafood and other resources. In later generations, the annual output of timber in the province is about 5 million cubic meters, and in addition to the abundance of rice, the special products are cinnamon, star anise, notoginseng and so on. In addition, its aquaculture accounts for about a quarter of all in Vietnam. There are also two deep-water ports that can berth 150,000-ton giant ships according to the calculation method of later generations...... It's a complete treasure of feng shui.

But Gao Pragmatic is not Zhang Buxuan after all, his hand was gently and forcefully pressed, hugged Huang Zhiting into his arms, asked her to lean her head on her chest, and said softly: "If you want to say that the money can't be spent, my current money can't be spent for a long time...... I won't even tell you the truth, maybe by the time I'm ten years old, I won't be able to spend all my money. ”

Huang Zhiting said in surprise: "Ten years old? Isn't your Gao family known for being incorruptible? I have heard that when your uncle Gao Wenzhenggong died, there were only a few hundred acres of land, which was left to him by your grandfather when the family was divided a long time ago, and he himself was an official for decades, and he did not add a single acre of land......

"My third uncle is indeed poor, his mind is to manage money for the country, but not for himself." Gao pragmatic smiled, showing a hint of self-deprecation, and said: "But I'm different, I'm willing to manage money for the country, but I also like to manage money for myself, I don't think it's a conflict, so as early as ten years ago, I made Jinghua soap, honeycomb coal and Jinghua Trading Company." It didn't take long for me to start the three major factories in Kaiping, followed by Jinghua Infrastructure, Jinghua Private Port, Jinghua Shipyard, and Jinghua Military Industry's artillery factory and musket factory...... Do you know what the gross profit of my industry was last year? ”

Huang Zhiting leaned on his arms and didn't want to move, and said a little lazily: "I don't know, but looking at your spending so much, how can it be more than one million taels." ”

"A million? Hehe......" Gao pragmatic smiled: "What year is that old yellow calendar, last year all parts of Jinghua were added together, and the gross profit had to be added to this basis." ”

Huang Zhiting was not familiar with the phrase "add a zero", and was stunned when she heard it.

Gao pragmatic added: "It's more than 10 million. ”

At this moment, Huang Zhiting was really frightened, and her face and voice changed: "Ten million taels...... Silver? "She is also a person who has been in charge of government affairs, and she still has the concept of 10 million taels.

But in fact, the number of 10 million taels is normal for Gao Shishi, who has several large private ports and fleets.

In history, Zheng Zhilong relied on collecting tolls alone, which exceeded 10 million taels every year, which was equivalent to the global income of the Dutch East India Company, which was the most powerful at that time.

It can only be said that the goods produced in China are too hard in this era, not only what is the importance and scarcity, but also irreplaceable - later generations of Western economists said that the world trade at that time was that the Spaniards worked hard to dig gold and silver in the Americas, and then all the gold was given to European countries, and most of the silver was given to the Ming Dynasty.

This is not over, all the countries in Europe that can have some trade relations with Daming have also transferred all the silver obtained from various channels to Daming.

In that era, Daming was a super sponge, so much so that the world's silver flowed into the "Milky Way" and did not fill it up in Daming.

Why is it not filled? Europe caused a price revolution because the Spaniards dug up too much gold and silver, which caused a series of accidents, but the Ming Dynasty accepted more silver than Europe, but there was no, not even a splash.

What does this mean? It shows that in the Ming Dynasty at that time, the social productive forces were quite huge, and the total amount of social surplus wealth was immeasurable.

This truth is like at the end of the 20th century, when Soros and other financial predators were able to ransack Southeast Asia with the power of capital, but they ran into a bloody mess in Hong Kong, which is backed by China - my size is not at all something that you can shake with your money, even if you have a certain amount of leverage, you still don't have the strength to wrestle with me.

Therefore, Gao Shicai has always felt that as long as Daming solves internal problems, there are ways to solve any external problems.

"Governing all nations in China" is a real opportunity to be realized in this era, at least in East Asia.

At this time, Gao Shishi said with a smile: "The number of people in the world who know this number is not more than five together, don't leak it to me." ”

Huang Zhiting said nervously: "Of course I won't talk nonsense, but you ...... You are so rich, will you be coveted? ”

"There may be many people in the world who may covet me, but there is only one person who threats." Gao Pragmatic sighed slightly: "It's my classmate, the current saint." ”

"Your Majesty?" Huang Zhiting became even more nervous: "Will the emperor also covet it?" ”

"It's going to be, that's why I have to find a way to make it inconvenient for him to do it." Gao pragmatically said: "Do you think, why do I have to let your Cen and Huang families move to Annan?" ”

Huang Zhiting was slightly stunned and hesitated: "I'...... I thought you just wanted us to give up Guangxi. But she immediately added: "But then I came to Annan, and I thought you were because Annan was indeed easier to feed so many of our people than Guangxi - truth-seeking, anyway, I believe you won't hurt me." ”

Gao Pragmatic said honestly: "I really won't hurt you, but I really need you to let Guangxi out...... To the emperor and the court. ”

Huang Zhiting was really stunned again.

Gao Shishi sighed with a wry smile and said: "Otherwise, if I do this in Annan, even if the emperor looks at the love for many years and doesn't care about me, I will have to end up with a thousand people, and I will die without a problem." Only when you give Guangxi to the emperor and the imperial court, can my actions in Annan be tolerated by the imperial court and the world's scholars-because no matter what, I am 'consolidating the border' and taking advantage of the righteousness. ”
