Chapter 24: Money-Making Business

"It's so reasonable!"

Jia Taichu, who was in charge of the tax grain of Daqin, suddenly realized, looking at the paper, refined salt, and tea on the desk, as if he saw the golden gold flowing into the treasury of Daqin from various countries, piling up into a mountain.

He hugged his fists and said, "Your Majesty, Wei Chen suggests that we arrange large-scale production for businessmen as soon as possible to bring income to Daqin as soon as possible." ”

"What Aiqing said is good, this is indeed a way to make money, paper production requires plant straw, salt ore needed to make salt, both of which are self-sufficient." Ji Xuanling nodded, and said with a serious face: However, the new tea leaves needed for roasting tea still need to be purchased from Dakang in the south or Daqian in the east, and if the two countries refuse to sell it, they will even have to go to the south to buy it.

In order to bring benefits to these three, Daqin urgently needs to plant tea trees extensively. ”

Ji Xuanling wanted to maximize the benefits, from tea, mining, to roasting tea, salt, and papermaking, all of which needed to be completed within the territory of the Great Qin State.

It is necessary not only to bring benefits to the national treasury, but also to increase the income of the people.

The wealth of the country does not forget the strength of the people.

When the ministers heard this, they all praised Ji Xuanling's proposal.

However, the ministers also had their own concerns, and the imperial envoy Chu Liangji hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Daqin is located in the west, except for Qiushui County in the south, Yanping County has a humid climate, which is suitable for planting tea trees, and other counties are not suitable for planting tea trees.

What's more, the two counties are often invaded by the northern garrison of Dakang, and now they are invaded by Yuan Ci every three or five times, and the situation is unstable and not suitable for the development of agriculture. ”

Smack.

Ji Xuanling slapped his palms on the desk and said sharply: "That was in the past." ”

"Now that the king is in charge, if Yuan Ci dares to raise troops to attack again, Daqin will send heavy troops to meet it."

"The last general seconded it!" Yin Hongdao supported Ji Xuanling's tough attitude militarily.

Several other ministers did not say much, Yuan Ci had not yet sent troops to invade, and the top priority was still to encourage agriculture, commerce, and economic growth.

When the servant Mao Hongshan thought about it for a while, he suggested: "Your Majesty, Daqin has fried new tea, refined salt, and made new paper, and it is time to teach the technology to the craftsmen as soon as possible, so as to create goods, and strive to circulate as soon as possible to bring actual income." ”

"Taifu, the matter of trade is not simple, there is no giant in Daqin, and there is no chamber of commerce in the world, if you want to earn money and food, you need to use Daqian, Dakang to go south and north." Jia Taichu reminded, and immediately put forward his own strategy: "The king, Weichen suggests that we gather the big cadres in Xianyang City, the giants of Dakang, and discuss with them. ”

"Right!" Ji Xuanling Road.

The ministers retreated, Jia Taichu, Mao Hongshan personally went out of the palace, went to various shops in Xianyang City, and invited the owner of the Chamber of Commerce to come to the palace.

.......

Jia Fu.

Jia Tai's first banquet invited the merchants who came.

Ji Xuanling changed his costume and participated in the banquet as a businessman.

At this time, the three merchants smelled the faint fragrance of tea, looked at the tea in the tea bowl as clear as jade, and looked very ugly.

After making tea from the official's house, bringing new salt, and putting new paper on it, the three of them were instantly stunned, and their frightened colors were vividly expressed.

They are either from Daqian or Dakang, dealing in tea paste, paper, and salt respectively, and the chambers of commerce behind them are all over the princes and countries, and they are also well-informed people.

Why, what Jia Tai brought out at the beginning still caused them a lot of fright.

"Master Jia, what do you mean?"

A chamber of commerce boss from Daqian was the first to raise his head and ask.

"Hehe, Boss Xu, the official has no other intentions, this fragrant tea, new salt, and paper are made out by the king in his spare time, and he specially invited a few people to come to taste and appreciate it."

Tea?

Appreciation?

The ghost believed Jia Taichu's words.

Since the Qin State made new paper and made fragrant tea that was a hundred times better than the tea paste, how could he not arrange for the merchants of the Qin State to take a share of the soup from the hands of the merchants of Dakang and Daqian?

The tea is good tea, and the entrance is full of tea fragrance, but Xu Guanchao is not very interested, and asks with a calm face: "Lord Jia, are you going to suggest that King Qin prepare to do the business of tea, paper, salt and iron?" ”

Qin State does not have a rich side of the giants, but the overall strength should not be underestimated, not to mention, the quality of the fragrant tea, paper, salt and iron in front of him is excellent, if it is put into the market, it will inevitably cause a robbery, causing a serious impact on the items from Daqian and Dakang.

"Of course, Qin State will do the business of salt, iron, tea and paper." Jia Taichu said with a smile.

The world is bustling, all for profit, the world is bustling, all for profit.

Daqin is in short financial supply and urgently needs open source, how can he miss such a good opportunity.

What's more, this is not only the business of salt, iron, paper, and tea, but also the development of agriculture and mining in Daqin, and the benefits brought are immeasurable.

Hearing this, the three bosses became more and more cold and gloomy, and another businessman from Dakang, named Wang Hongyuan, asked indignantly: "So, Lord Jia, Lord Mao invited everyone to come, are you going to give us a horse?" ”

If you don't speculate for more than half a sentence, not to mention that this is a huge conflict of interests?

"Hahaha, if the Qin State wants to monopolize this fat meat, why invite the three bosses to come to discuss, Daqin secretly manufactures and puts it into the market at a low price, and it will definitely force the salt, paper, and tea paste from Daqian and Dakang out of Daqin's country, and with the quality of Daqin's fragrant tea, paper, and salt, it will even quickly encroach on the interests of the surrounding countries.

However, now that the Qin State has items, not only will it not harm everyone's interests, but it is also ready to achieve mutual benefit and win-win results with everyone!"

Mutual benefit and win-win?

Xu Guanchao, Wang Hongyuan and another businessman took a deep breath, and their frowning brows also relaxed.

The originally gloomy and cold complexion was smiling as if he had eaten honey.

"Master Jia, I, Wan, have always treated people with sincerity in business, and I am willing to spend 5,000 gold to buy fragrant tea, new salt, and new paper recipes." A slightly chubby businessman gets straight to the point and proposes his ideas.

"Wan Jinbiao, your appearance is too ugly, five thousand gold wants to swallow three recipes alone." Xu Guanchao said unhappily, this is obviously a lack of people's hearts and swallowing elephants, aren't you afraid of choking? Turning to Jia Taichu, he said, "Lord Jia, Xu paid six thousand gold to buy three prescriptions." ”

The chamber of commerce where he works specializes in salt is very profitable, but the salt circulating in the market is different from the new salt that is as clear as snow in front of him.

Jia Taichu took out the fragrant tea, paper, salt, excellent quality, if transported back to the imperial capital, a pound of fragrant tea and a gold, a pound of salt and a tael of gold, it will inevitably cause the family to rob, and the benefits brought are by no means a thousand gold.

Hum...

Jia Taichu chuckled, these guys are more cunning than foxes, and if they buy the recipe directly, they can't help but underestimate the vision of the Great Qin Junchen.

"The two bosses, the Oiran of the land of fireworks still knows that selling art is not selling their bodies, so as to increase their worth, how can Daqin sell the recipe for making paper and salt?" Jia Taichu said angrily: "Ruoer and the others are sincere, let's talk to the king in person!" ”
