Chapter 1091 Financial Business

After taking a sip of tea, Su You looked at the room, and there was a poem in Cai Xiang's cursive script hanging in the room.

On the first day of the white jade tower, the Qihua wind slept quietly.

Who is like a Qintai girl, blowing through the purple smoke on the cloud flute.

Calligraphy is naturally needless to say, it is rare to use the allusions of Xiao Shi Chenglong, the words are gorgeous and rich, the intention is excellent, and the merchant is the most fond of such a good mouth to Bao Dan.

Su You couldn't help but sigh: "Cai Junmo's words are very rare, and most of his poems turn into sadness in the end, I feel that if this is not his style." You can even get this, but it's so rare. ”

Cai Jing is also admiring the calligraphy: "This poem is obtained in the dream of the elder brother, and he is happy to write it." In the words of the sect brother himself, the immortal spirit has not dispersed, and the charm is natural, which is really the first in his life, and then he is missing, but he didn't expect to see it here today. ”

Shopkeeper Liu smiled and said, "Master Yuan Chang said this. The word that the Lord bought will have to increase in value. ”

"To tell you the truth, this piece of writing was purchased at the foreign book market of the Yuguo Gong Kezhen Hall, and it cost twelve taels of gold at that time."

Su You couldn't help but stomp his feet when he heard this: "Why didn't I know about this?" How else could you miss it?! ”

Cai Jing quipped: "The general manager of the country can't take all the good things, and he deceived the Taohe Shiyan of the clan brother from my hands, is it a shame?" ”

This is a public case in the literary world.

After Su You returned to Beijing, he called Cai Jing again and asked, has your brother played Taohe Yan?

Cai Jing was a little surprised, saying that his brother had indeed given him a unique inkstone, the color was different from the Duan inkstone and Taohe inkstone, slightly whitish, with some red silk on it, and I don't know where it came from.

After Su You took a look, he said that I have a piece of the Owl Eye End Inkstone used by Da Su in my hand, and the inkstone is also engraved with Da Su's autographed poems, how about exchanging it with you?

Cai Jing thought to himself that the eagle eye was the top grade in the inkstone, not to mention the addition of Da Su's poems, this exchange was completely done, so he agreed.

Although Taohe inkstone is also a famous inkstone, because the origin is in Minzhou, that place has just been included in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, so there are not many new products.

The Taohe inkstone played by the Song people refers to the antiques handed down from the Tang Dynasty.

The piece in Cai Jing's hand, not to mention the color is not correct, it is still a new inkstone, but it is really not very valuable.

As a result, it didn't take long for Kezhentang to exhibit a piece of calligraphy - Cai Xiang's "Taohe Yanming".

The most rare thing about this calligraphy is that Cai Xiang explained the origin, characteristics, and color of his Taohe stone inkstone.

I also wrote about the fun that this inkstone brings to me, although there is no stone eye, but "it takes no pen, that is, to withdraw the ink, and it is difficult to have two virtues." "I don't leave any ink marks when I wash it overnight." "The texture is delicate and moist, not under the travertine in Duanxi." It is definitely the best in inkstones.

Because the color is whitish and faintly red, it was sent by a friend from the old stone pit of Taohe. Based on this, Cai Xiang deduced that this inkstone should be the best inkstone that his predecessors had discussed - Taohe children's noodles, red silk research.

The first person in the world of calligraphy deliberately left a post as proof, which is not true, and must be true.

The fact that the works of the great calligraphers and the objects of their creations can be reunited and exhibited at the same time is a rare opportunity in the dark.

For a time, the Chinese scholars in Beijing rushed to each other and came to Kezhen Hall to observe this rare elegant situation.

The happiest thing is Gao Jiedu, damn, Minzhou, that's under Lao Tzu's rule, and there are such good things?!

Mo Guoyi Cai Jing, who was the most angry, said that Su Shaobao had deceived his inkstone.

But this is also an unreasonable thing, this inkstone must be handed over to Su You, and Cai Xiang's calligraphy can only increase the price, and when it was exchanged, Cai Jing took a big advantage.

Speaking of which, this can only be regarded as one of Su Shaobao's many elegant things.

Xiao Xi said with a smile: "That is, you Song people have this Yaxing, even if the inkstone doesn't cost a pen, how many can you save?" How much time can I save when I ink fast? No matter how warm it is, can it still be moistened by Khotanese white jade? ”

Su You nodded: "Prime Minister Xiao is right, for people who are not good at this, it is too much to send him." By the way, the envoy likes gold and silver, and the gold and silver jewelry and utensils of Fuxiang are a must in Bianjing - Shopkeeper Liu, show Xiao Xiangxiang something real! ”

Shopkeeper Liu hurriedly beckoned the guy to pick up something, and then began to introduce the business: "Our name is loved by the official family, and we franchise precious metals, including gold, platinum, silver, copper, tin, all kinds of utensils and miscellaneous utensils, jewelry and hairpins. Therefore, there are some differences between the financial business of Shanghao and other money and rice stores and quality shops. ”

"The villain is in charge of this, not the general number of Hefuxiang, but only one of the old ones. When I first started to operate some small loan business, it was just to take care of the reputable customers in the upstream and downstream, so that they could turn over their positions. ”

"A few young masters have a unique vision, they have invested in mineral deposits in the South China Sea, processed them into semi-finished products there, and they start to be delivered in June every year, plus the copper ban is relaxed, and the business has become big all of a sudden."

"Later, several old customers with financial resources saw that the copper material was exquisite and very popular, so they simply placed an order in advance, and the village issued them a ticket, indicating that they recognized the deal, and the copper material was given priority as soon as it arrived."

"Unexpectedly, this banker ticket has also become a commodity, and because of its outstanding reputation, it can be used as money to settle the payment and mortgage the loan in Bianjing Financial Bank."

"Gradually, the 'banker' has become a separate business."

Xiao Xi asked, "Shopkeeper Liu, isn't this a bill for picking up goods?" Others take this ticket to the door, and your account ships according to the ticket, which doesn't make much money, how can it become a separate business? ”

Shopkeeper Liu smiled: "I don't know what I know, I have a lot of knowledge here." ”

"The price of metals is not static, and there will always be small fluctuations throughout the year."

"For example, now, the Nanhai Gangyun on the Liangzhejiang Road has been on the road, and the gold price in Beijing will fall slightly in advance."

"And when the New Year is approaching, the shops are busy checking out, the money is used frequently, and it is the peak season for people to buy jewelry for the New Year, and the gold price in Beijing will rise significantly."

"But it's only June now, as for what the gold price is at the end of this year, everyone actually relies on guessing, and there is a name here, called 'selling'."

"Every month, there will be a selling price. Each price is slightly different. ”

"For example, if you want to subscribe for fifty taels of silver in my village, and withdraw it in December, then we will give you an estimate, and then give you a small discount, receive the treasure banknotes, and issue the banknotes."

"These pre-collected money can be used to earn interest, which is a profit."

"If you want to exchange the banker ticket in advance, of course, you can, but you have to pay a handling fee for early withdrawal, and here is another income."

"When the actual payment of the silver arrives in December, if the actual silver price is higher than the estimate given by the Sign, it will be a loss for the Sign."

"But if it's lower than our estimate, then we'll make a profit."

"For our account, because of the concession of the official family, there have been materials coming in for many years, so the ability to resist the risk of valuation inversion is much stronger than that of retail investors."

"For those of us who sit in the bank, because we have the silver in our hands for any month, we can allocate them to offset the losses, and then turn the losses of the banker ticket holders into our profits."

"For the banker, this is a sure deal, but the premise is that the wealth is strong, and the banker is not afraid of being maliciously run."

Shopkeeper Liu took a sip of the teacup: "The merchants who can carry out gold and silver trade in the Great Song Dynasty have paid a large amount of deposit to the Huangsong Bank in order to obtain the operation qualification and ensure that this business is a franchise." ”

"Even if others know the method, if they don't have this strength and background, they won't be able to learn it, so I'm not afraid to tell the minister."

This forced to pretend to be a ** explosion, Xiao Xi is the privy envoy of Beiyuan in Liao, and Nanjing Daojiedu is already regarded as an existence at the top of the pyramid, but at this moment, he feels that he is a poor and remote landman.

Straight mother thief, Su Mingrun said that the business of making money turns out to be like this!

This...... This one...... Xiao Xi now has the urge to turn around and rush back to the Liao State - with Lao Tzu's status in the Liao State, with such a concession, His Majesty will definitely give me Lao Xiao face!

Su You said with a smile: "This is actually just the most special financial business with Fuxiang, and there are many other businesses, but those who only need to mention a name, the prime minister should know, and he will not bother to introduce more shopkeepers." ”

At this time, the man came with a small cart, and the most striking thing in the middle was a beautiful table clock with a golden case.

The hands in platinum are set with rubies, and every moment is set with a rectangular tourmaline.

Tourmaline is rich in color, and the circles of tourmaline are arranged in a rainbow of over-graded colors, shining under the glass clock face.

The price of this table clock, Xiao Xi didn't dare to ask.

The big table clock in the Emperor Song Zichen Hall changes every year, becoming more and more exquisite, and the price is said to be 500,000 yuan.

And those grandfather clocks are far less exquisite and luxurious than the current one, needless to say, a year's worth of coins can't be beaten.
