Chapter XXIII Subscription

A word shook a thousand waves.

When the vassal kings heard this, they all looked at each other, and although no one spoke, the meaning was conveyed very clearly in the eyes of each other.

To do business, you must not put money into it first, this Zhu Youzhen tossed all night, it seems that the purpose is two words: to ask for money.

Zhu Youzhen sat behind the imperial case, quietly watching the vassal kings of His Highness make quick eye contact.

Although Zhu Youzhen couldn't decipher their eyes, he could guess almost by guessing.

One is to scold oneself for being shameless, and the poor want to ask for money for the vassal kings, and the other is to exchange whether to give or not, if you give it, how much will you give? If you don't give it, what are the consequences?

Zhu Youzhen sat quietly for a while, and saw that no one spoke, but the eye contact became more and more intense.

Zhu Yu made a retrieval excuse and left the main hall to the vassal kings, so that they could have a space to blend carefully.

Zhu Youzhen was not afraid that these vassal kings would not give money, because he still had a lot of backups of the black materials that Wei Zhongxian confessed, and the contents on them were far more sensational than the ones he showed them just now.

If it really doesn't work, I will show them an upgraded version of the black material, they know it in their hearts, and they are not afraid that they will not admit it.

And although these feudal kings have different fiefs, they do have one thing in common, that is, there is absolutely no shortage of money.

Zhu Youzhen, who came from his previous life, once read a historical document, and the peasant army broke through the mansions of various vassal kings, and a large number of gold, silver, jade, grain and cloth were seized, and the peasant army grew step by step, which was inseparable from the contributions of the vassal kings.

But how much can they give? Zhu Youzhen didn't know the bottom of his heart.

Now that the inner money is empty, Zhu Youzhen thinks that he can extort 500,000 taels of silver, and he is satisfied.

With these 500,000 taels of silver, the start-up capital is enough, and it should be able to engage in invention and creation.

Zhu Youzhen planned to get some soap, sugar, or something, make a little money first, and then burn glass, and engage in large-scale industrial production such as textile machines.

Zhu Youzhen calculated, went out to pee, and then turned around outside the hall for a while, estimating that the time was almost up, and returned to the main hall.

As soon as he saw Zhu Youzhen come in, the hall that was boiling back to the sky just now was immediately silent.

"How's your discussion?"

The vassal kings glanced at each other, and then sang in unison, "We are willing to relieve Your Majesty's worries." ”

When Zhu Youzhen heard this, he was sure in his heart.

"It's not for me to relieve my worries, I'm to bring you rich."

When the vassal kings heard this, they secretly scolded their mothers in their hearts, but their faces were still sincerely afraid.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Subsequently, Zhu Youzhen sent the articles of association and prospectus that had been drafted in advance.

The vassal kings actually wanted to spend money to buy peace, and the silver was ready to be wasted.

But seeing that Zhu Youzhen was so formal, and he was afraid of refuting the emperor's face, he still pretended to be very serious and looked at it one by one.

"I have contributed 51 percent of the shares with technology and management, and you have contributed 49 percent of the shares with money."

"Because your uncles are not in the capital, I will take care of the company's business decision-making, and you can just wait for the dividends at the end of the year."

"The company holds a general meeting of shareholders once a year to discuss the distribution of profits and the expansion of reproduction, and when the time comes, all the uncles who are invited to join the shares will come, and if you can't come, please send a representative, I will wait for you in the capital."

Zhu Youzhen was afraid that the vassal kings would not understand, so he explained roughly.

In fact, the vassal kings not only didn't understand it, they didn't read it carefully at all, no matter how tempting Zhu Youzhen's prospectus was, the vassal kings still agreed that Zhu Youzhen was blackmailing them.

However, Zhu Youzhen's last sentence, they still heard it in their hearts, and they were immediately overjoyed.

If you can spend money on an annual trip to the capital, it's still good, and it's a surprise.

The capital flower world, you can also play along the way, haha, this is much better than staying in that fiefdom for a lifetime.

Well, it's really worth the money.

Even many vassal kings secretly thought that it would be best if they could donate more money to stay in the capital.

Without waiting for Zhu Youzhen to further explain the company's articles of association or anything, the vassal kings couldn't stop it.

"Your Majesty, the minister is willing to donate, no, the minister is willing to join the shares."

Zhu Youzhen looked at the vassal kings who were enthusiastically signing up, and his heart suddenly blossomed, and he hurriedly called Gao Qiqian to lead them to the side hall and subscribe for registration one by one.

was busy until midnight, and sent away the unfinished vassal king.

Zhu Youzhen looked at the list of subscriptions and laughed out loud.

"Obediently, this group of vassal kings is really rich, at least richer than me, hahaha, I have become rich, rich, hahahaha."

Late at night, Zhu Youzhen's unhuman laughter came from the Jianji Palace.

Thirty-two vassal kings, 1.88 million taels of silver, Zhu Youzhen did make a fortune.

Among them, the Fu King of Henan subscribed the most, 150,000 taels, and was indeed the richest vassal king, and Emperor Wanli did not hurt him in vain;

The king of Shu in Sichuan also subscribed a lot, 100,000 taels, the country of Tianshu, with the power of salt and iron, and there are many ways to make money;

The king of Jin in Shanxi also subscribed for 100,000 taels, which made Zhu Youzhen impressed, and then thought about it, the Jin merchants passed through the Tartars in the north, Huaiyang in the south, and the rich in the world, it is estimated that the king of Jin has not profited from it.

Several vassal kings in the south of the Yangtze River also subscribed a lot, ranging from 80,000 taels to 100,000 taels, and it was indeed the land of fish and rice, the economic center of the Ming Dynasty.

The vassal kings of Jiangxi, Huguang, Shandong, Fujian and other places are also okay, and each person subscribed for 350,000 taels.

The worst is the vassal kings of Liangguang, Ganshan, Jiliao and other places, the most subscribed for 30,000 taels, and the least is the king of Liao, who only subscribed for 10,000 taels.

Liaodong has had many military disasters in recent years, and the Jurchens have been making trouble all day long, how can there be any output, and the king of Liao can take out 10,000 taels of silver, and it is estimated that he will vomit blood.

Zhu Youzhen looked at the list carefully, and by the way, he also understood the economic strength of the vassal kings.

In order to avoid long nights and dreams.

Early the next morning, Zhu Youzhen instructed Gao Qiqian to send people to the residences of the vassal kings in the capital with the share warrants that had been prepared overnight, and collect money from door to door.

At noon, the eunuchs came back to resume their lives, and Zhu Youzhen looked at the 1.88 million taels of silver tickets, and finally put his mind at ease.

When he saw the 10,000 taels of silver tickets sent by Zhu Shuyan, the king of Liao, Zhu Youzhen couldn't bear it again, so he sent Gao Qiqian to send him back, and gave him an extra 10,000 taels.

And let Gao Qiqian give him a message: the shares are recognized, but the silver will not be accepted, everyone is relatives, and there is money to earn together, and told him that life in Liaodong is not easy, let him pay attention to safety.

According to Gao Qiqian's report, after Zhu Shuyan accepted the silver, he knelt down at that time, tears were in his eyes, and he kept kowtowing to the Forbidden City.

When Zhu Youzhen heard this, he smiled and didn't say anything.

When I take back Liaodong, and then immigrate to the Songliao Plain to cultivate and mine, at that time, the King of Liao will probably wake up smiling when he sleeps.

Tohoku, Tohoku, that's a really good place.

Zhu Youzhen looked forward to it, and took the lead in laughing out of the pig's cry.
