The capital, with the busy affairs of the envoys of various countries paying tribute, suddenly reached the end of the year, and soon ushered in the new year.

The entire Beijing-Tianjin area is also shrouded in a kind of festivity and looseness before the Chinese New Year.

Because of the leaders of many industries under Liu Jin's command, factories, workshops, etc. in the entire Beijing-Tianjin region have also followed suit, so there will be annual leave and year-end bonuses during the Chinese New Year.

The annual leave is generally fifteen days, seven days before the year, eight days after the year, and half a month's vacation can allow everyone to go home for the New Year.

The year-end bonus is determined according to their respective benefits, of course, it mainly depends on whether the owner is generous or not.

Many industries under Liu Jin's command have not yet reached the time of the Chinese New Year, and the year-end bonus has already been formulated, from top to bottom, everyone has a share.

Not to mention the above management, some management year-end bonuses are an astronomical amount for ordinary people, such as the heads of major factories, the heads of Ryukyu City, etc., and the year-end bonuses of these people are thousands of taels of silver.

It is said that Li Yuanshan, the person in charge of Ryukyu Castle with the best performance, can get almost 10,000 taels of silver for the year-end bonus.

Tens of thousands of taels of silver are nothing to a rich person, but to ordinary people, this is definitely an astronomical amount.

Most of these managers were originally ordinary people, because they were diligent and studious, worked hard, made outstanding achievements, and took up management positions.

Being able to get such a rich reward also makes people in many industries under Liu Jin very excited.

Like Li Yuanshan, the person in charge of Ryukyu City, this year is the year when Ryukyu City really broke out.

Not only have a large number of fields been reclaimed and large-scale plantations have been built in Ryukyu Castle, but several new castles have been built in this area of Ryukyu Castle.

In addition, Li Yuanshan's side also adopted a new business model, and Ryukyu City recruited a large number of poor people from all over the Ming Dynasty to go to Ryukyu to reclaim land and grow rice and sugar cane.

Ryukyu Castle bought their sugar cane, which was then boiled into sugar to sell, and at the same time, it also established sugar factories here in various Nanyang plantations to purchase sugar cane from Nanyang plantations, thus monopolizing the entire sugar industry.

The major trading houses opened plantations in Nanyang, and they only needed to grow sugar cane and sell it to the Ryukyu sugar industry.

Although you will make less money in this way, the technology of boiling snow sugar is in the hands of the Ryukyu Sugar Industry, and the cane sugar you boil yourself is not comparable to it at all, so it is better to simply sell it to the Ryukyu Sugar Industry, which is simple and trouble-free.

The Nanyang area has abundant water and heat, fertile land, and very cheap labor, and each plantation is also a big profit, especially earning, in fact, it is so simple to circle a piece of land and open up it to grow sugarcane, and since then the silver has been rolling in.

Many commercial banks that have tasted the sweetness also held a general meeting of shareholders during the Chinese New Year, calling the owners behind them to discuss the matter of continuing to expand the scale of planting next year.

Sugar has always been something that only the real rich and aristocracy can enjoy, and its price is very high.

Even though the existence of the Ryukyu Sugar Industry has caused the price of sugar to fall again and again, the price is still very high.

But the sales are very hot.

Not only is the sales hot in Daming, but also the demand for sugar in Korea, the Japanese country, and the Nanyang countries are very strong, and the snow-white and snow-white snow sugar is almost comparable to porcelain, silk, and tea.

Even the herdsmen on the grassland, this snow sugar has become their necessity, and drinking tea every day without sugar is completely soulless.

The Ryukyu Sugar Industry relied on Li Yuanshan's operation to earn more than 20 million taels of silver in the thirteenth year of Hongzhi, and the reward of 10,000 taels of silver to Li Yuanshan was nothing at all.

The largest proprietor behind the Ryukyu sugar industry, His Royal Highness Zhu Houzhao, the crown prince today, even personally met Li Yuanshan once and rewarded him with some things.

For people who can make money like this, everyone likes it very much.

Earning 20 million taels of silver a year, such a terrible profitability, can be called terrifying.

When Emperor Hongzhi received the annual report, the whole person couldn't help but sigh.

Why didn't you find out that this silver would be so profitable?

In the past, the money accumulated in ten years was only more than one million taels of silver, and the tax silver of the Ming treasury was less than three million taels of silver a year.

Now it is just this Ryukyu sugar industry, and in the end, he Hongzhi Emperor's family (well, including the prince's shares) can share nearly 10 million taels of silver.

This as the various industries are settled near the end of the year, Emperor Hongzhi's internal money has exploded, and it can't be loaded, there is no way, but it can only be stored in the first bank of the Ming Dynasty, anyway, there is interest in it, and silver can be made of silver.

Liu Jin and Emperor Hongzhi, the crown prince and the military generals and nobles of the industrial income are very hot. Worry-free love book network

The Ryukyu sugar industry is the best performer, but the performance of other industries is not bad.

Like the First Bank of Daming, now its business is not only all over the two capitals and thirteen provinces of Daming, but also everywhere overseas, and even in North Korea, Wa Kingdom, and Nanyang have opened business.

On the one hand, it is to absorb deposits, and on the other hand, it is to take out loans, just by earning interest differences, Daming First Bank has also earned tens of millions of taels of silver this year.

Of course, as we all know, it is not the main thing for Daming First Bank to make money now.

It now not only controlled the currency issuance power of the Ming Dynasty, but also penetrated into Korea, the Wa Kingdom and the Nanyang region, and silver dollars and silver bills were popular.

Even if the silver dollar is counted, it is basically a loss, and the minted silver dollar has fire consumption, and the fire consumption in this era is still extremely powerful.

The really powerful thing is the silver ticket, this thing is terrifying.

It is essentially just a piece of paper, but because it can be exchanged for an equivalent silver dollar from the First Bank of the Ming Dynasty, it is also gradually circulating.

The use of silver tickets is naturally much more convenient than silver dollars, and at the beginning, everyone was afraid that the first bank of Daming would run away, so the degree of acceptance was not high.

However, with the continuous development of the business of the First Bank of Daming, branches are located in various regions, and the use of silver tickets is very simple and convenient.

The long-term good reputation and super anti-counterfeiting technology also make it circulate quickly, not only the merchants and traders of the Ming Dynasty are using, and even ordinary people are now using this silver ticket.

In terms of the issuance of silver tickets, Liu Jin originally did it in the spirit of currency, so unlike those money banks or something, a silver ticket is a few hundred taels, thousands of taels and the like.

The silver bills of the First Bank of Daming are one tael of silver, two taels of silver, and five taels of silver, and the largest is only one hundred taels of silver, which is very convenient for circulation.

It can also be used and accessed by ordinary people.

Of course, most of the people still like silver dollars, which look real, and silver tickets always feel a little empty.

But businessmen are very fond of silver tickets, go out to do business with silver heavy, how tired, with silver tickets is much more convenient, anyway, there are branches of the first bank of the Ming Dynasty, just go to exchange silver dollars.

Silver tickets circulated in the Ming Dynasty, and they were also accompanied by Ming merchants and trading houses to Korea, the Wa Kingdom and the South Seas, and were slowly accepted by the people in these places.

This thing is the most valuable thing of the First Bank of Daming, and after the status is confirmed, you can easily plunder wealth by issuing paper bills every year in the future.

Of course, Liu Jin will not kill chickens and eggs like this, Liu Jin has repeatedly emphasized the importance of this thing to the owners of Daming First Bank, and must not let it become paper, otherwise the biggest loss will be himself.

In addition to the First Bank of Daming, Tianjin Shipyard, Glass Factory, and Miyun Iron Factory, which are also golden egg hens, especially Tianjin Shipyard, which is also very profitable.

An ocean-going ship sells for more than 200,000 taels of silver, and the key is that you still need to queue up, and the orders are full, and they have been received for several years.

The commercial houses that make money are eager to have hundreds of ocean-going ships now, so the orders are very stable, and not only the Tianjin shipyard is doing well.

Although the shipyards opened by other people are not as good as the Tianjin shipyard in terms of technology and quality, the business is also very hot, and the Zhang shipyard of the two younger brothers of Empress Zhang, the Zhang brothers, has now become the most important industry of their Zhang family.

Don't look at the technology, the quality is not very good, but it is bullish.

Tianjin Shipyard went to Liaohekou in eastern Liaodong to open a new factory, and they also followed, Tianjin Shipyard went to Songhu and Ryukyu to open a new factory, and they also followed.

This Zhang brother is also a talent, he has no ability, but he will also learn people, Tianjin shipyard high wages, they are also following the high salary, a thousand gold bones, but also let them hire a lot of shipbuilding talents.

Tianjin Shipyard has opened several branches one after another, the scale of investment is larger than the other, the recruitment of more and more people, and the salary of Tianjin Shipyard itself is very high.

Under such circumstances, Tianjin Shipyard still made a profit of almost 15 million taels of silver to these owners behind it in a year.

Shipbuilding is profiteering!

There is no way, if you want to go overseas to make money, you can't do it without a ship, the ship of Tianjin Shipyard is the best ship, everyone trusts and likes it, and there are a lot of orders.

Especially after these big families, big businessmen, big landlords, and gentry in the south of the Ming River have slowly embarked on the track, they are very active in the overseas expansion of the Ming Dynasty.

There is no way, if you don't work hard, this will be eaten up by the northerners, and there will be no share for them at that time.

In the second half of the thirteenth year of Hongzhi, it is not only the Beijing-Tianjin region in the north of the continuous force, the south of the Yangtze River in the south, and even Guangdong and Fujian have begun to exert force, the most popular is the ocean trade, the demand for this ship is very large.
