PS: Thank you for the monthly ticket voted by the book friend "The Country Loses".

Without Mo Obsession, Wu Zheng would not be able to gather this group of people, and this group of people was naturally wary of Wu Zheng.

And without Wu Zheng, Mo Zhinian does not have so much courage, or there is not enough to attract their interests and bring them together.

To put it simply, Wu Zheng provided a lucrative profit point and a blueprint that would make people salivate, and provided it with military power as a guarantee. And don't obsess about providing connections and assets, and providing them with the endorsement of their reputation.

It was only within a year that such a behemoth was formed-Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce.

Therefore, Wu Zheng agreed with Mo Yiqing's point of view, this silver really can't be moved, and if it moves, it will break the rules, and the destruction of this rule is enough to make this organization fall apart in an instant.

The Chamber of Commerce is a community of interests, its centripetal force is only wealth, once even wealth can not be guaranteed, then the foundation collapses instantly, and there is no centripetal force.

"You're right!" Wu Zheng agreed, "The money of the Chamber of Commerce can't be moved. ”

Mo Yiqing said: "But at this level, it's really sad." I don't know if my husband has a good plan? ”

Wu Zheng frowned and said: "There is no shortage of ways to make money, but the problem is to raise such a large amount of money in a short period of time, I am afraid that it is really only robbed." ”

"This is absolutely unacceptable." Mo Yiqing's face changed, and he hurriedly persuaded, "Now it is different from when Fujun recovered Hangzhou City three years ago, now Fujun is the master of Hangzhou Mansion, whether it is rich or poor, they are all people under Fujun's rule, unless they are guilty, how can they rob because of this?" ”

Wu Zheng smiled bitterly: "I'm just talking casually, you don't take it seriously." ”

Looking at Wu Zheng's face, Mo Yiqing hesitated for a moment and said, "Actually, I have half a solution, but I haven't figured out the follow-up ...... yet." ”

When Wu Zheng heard this, he came to his senses and encouraged: "Say it and let me hear it, maybe I can help you improve it." ”

Mo Yiqing lowered his head and pondered for a while, raised his head and said, "This method still has to fall on the five million taels of the Chamber of Commerce." ”

Wu Zheng didn't react, listened quietly, and waited for Mo Yiqing to continue.

"The purpose of the chamber of commerce to raise such a huge amount of money is nothing more than to take a stake in the forbidden industries controlled by the government in various places, so as to obtain unimaginable profits. Therefore, it is not that this money cannot be moved, but that a suitable reason is needed to convince the big and small shareholders. ”

Wu Zheng nodded slightly, "Go on." ”

"That's all."

"Huh?" Wu Zheng was a little stunned, "It's gone?" ”

"It's gone! The most important thing is that the scale of this industry must be far greater than five million taels, and it cannot be dispersed, once dispersed, the share of this silver that can fall to the financial secretary will be discounted. ”

Wu Zheng asked, "You mean, find a reason that can convince the shareholders of the Chamber of Commerce...... Even if it's a pie, as long as they agree, it's an investment and not an appropriation? ”

"Yes. But I couldn't think of a suitable reason for it. ”

Wu Zheng raised his hand and said, "You can rest for a while, let me think about ......." ”

Wu Zheng closed his eyes and began to think.

Five million taels is a huge amount of money for individuals, the government and even the imperial court.

According to the cost of the Northern Expeditionary Army, it is enough to support the cost of an army of 50,000 people for a year.

Wu Zheng can understand what Mo Yiqing means, that is, he needs to find a pool that is enough to hold the five million taels of money, and it is convincing.

But under the jurisdiction of the General's Mansion, there are almost no people who meet this condition.

The only thing that can be accommodated is the military workshop, but this is Wu Zheng's bottom line, and there is no need to touch it.

Moreover, the significance of the military workshop is self-sufficiency, and Wu Zheng has no intention of expanding its scale.

Fighting recklessly is the way to death.

The investment of the military industry lies in refinement, not quantity.

This is an industry with input but no output, at least for the time being, the production of military workshops cannot be sold to the outside world, nor can it!

After a long time, Mo Yiqing said softly: "If you really can't think of a way, don't worry. Then, according to what Grandpa said, sell Mojia's land and shops to make up for this gap, which should be able to support it for half a year. ”

Wu Zheng's eyes suddenly opened, and he asked urgently, "What did you just say?" ”

Mo Yiqing looked at Wu Zheng in surprise and replied, "I said that according to Grandpa's wishes, sell the Mo family's land property and shop emergency ......." ”

"Stop." Wu Zheng's face gradually relaxed, "I have thought of a way." ”

"What's your plan?" Mo Yiqing asked in surprise.

"Sell land!"

"Selling land? Where is it? ”

Wu Zheng smiled and said, "There is no territory around the port of Songjiang Mansion. ”

The surprise on Mo Yiqing's face gradually faded, and she explained softly: "I'm afraid that my husband doesn't know, even in the city of Hangzhou, a small courtyard covering an area of one acre is only two hundred taels. To sell for 5 million taels, at least nearly 30,000 small courtyards are needed, not counting the impact of the price collapse caused by the massive sell-off...... The ownerless wasteland in Songjiang Mansion will be sold for five million taels, and it is conceivable that at least nearly one million mu will be needed, but who is willing to spend a huge amount of money to buy it, this cannot convince the shareholders of the Chamber of Commerce. ”

Wu Zheng smiled and listened to Mo Yiqing's words, and then asked, "Why are the shareholders of the Chamber of Commerce unwilling to buy the ownerless wasteland in Songjiang Mansion?" ”

Mo Yiqing just wanted to explain, but Wu Zheng smiled and raised his hand to stop it, and then said, "I know you want to say that because of the shortage of land and sparse population, it is not of specific value." ”

Mo Yiqing nodded.

Wu Zheng said: "What if I say that I am going to build a big city that can accommodate a million people based on the port of Wusong? ”

Mo Yiqing was stunned, and she hurriedly said: "Husband is so generous, it is natural for the Chamber of Commerce to actively buy land, but how can the husband build such a city, to build a city of this scale, it will cost no less than ten times the money, does the husband want to exchange 50 million for 5 million...... And where did the people of the city come from? ”

Wu Zheng laughed, "Why do I have to invest 50 million? Why should I only sell five million when I can sell for five million? ”

Rao is Mo Yiqing is smart, and she can't keep up with Wu Zheng's train of thought, she thought for a long time before asking: "Five million taels, you have to sell millions of acres of wasteland, if you want to sell land to raise funds for the construction of the city, you have to sell tens of millions of acres, but where is there so much wasteland around the port?" ”

Wu Zheng smiled a little strangely and said, "You think I'm going to sell wasteland cheaply? Five taels and one acre? ”

"Five taels and one acres of Songjiang wasteland is not low, ten or two acres is already the limit, and the high-quality paddy fields outside Hangzhou are only fifty or one acres, like Shaoxing and Songjiang, at most not more than thirty-five taels."

"Nope. I am selling residential land in the middle of the new city, not land outside the city. It has to be sold for 100,000 mu, first 10,000 mu, and then 20,000 mu for 221 mu a month later, which is similar to the price of residential land in Hangzhou. Then it wasn't until a year later that I sold another 300 taels of acres. Wu Zheng said with a smile.
