"Hehehehehehe, Brother Boyao came from afar, but my brother didn't greet him. Forgiveness of sins and forgiveness of sins. Brother and his party, the journey went smoothly, right? ”

"It's okay, my brother received the letter from my brother and was ready to come by boat immediately, but because there was a batch of goods on the CD side that had not been delivered for a long time, it was a long time late. It should be the foolish brother who asks for mercy. However, this Wujiang waterway. ”

"Huh? What's wrong? ”

"Brother Xian, this Fuling County used to produce scarcely, and Brother Fool had never been here before. This is the first time to walk the Wujiang River waterway. Although this river is much narrower than the Yangtze River, it is almost the same as the Min River and the Jialing River. But there are a little more reefs in the water. ”

"Oh, I see. How? Brother, a ship ran aground this time? ”

"Yes, but fortunately, there is only a big ship of 500 stones. Brother Yu has already let all the big ships of more than 500 stones withdraw from the Wujiang River waterway and wait at the wharf of Tongxian County. ”

"Well, my brother didn't think about it. Then the hundred-stone boat should be fine, right? ”

"Listen to the advice of my old boatman, as long as you are close to the middle of the fairway, the hundred stone boat is completely fine. Forget it, let's not talk about these things. Didn't the virtuous brother say in the letter that there was something good for the foolish brother to see? Hurry up and take it out and give the foolish brother a long look. ”

"It's all some local goods made up by our mountain people, brother, please."

"Please."

The first thing to take care of Mi is the fruits of the labor of the hunting team in the past two months. Tiger skins, bear skins, wolf skins, deer skins and other kinds of leather goods. Tiger bones, bear bile, deer antler velvet and other medicinal herbs. There are also high-quality ingredients such as bear paws, as well as various animal whips.

"These things are of good quality and the price is negotiable. However, the amount is too small, and a maximum of three ships can be loaded. ”

Brother, what are you fooling me, big brother, I'm hundreds of thousands a minute, and you called me to such a remote place just to sell these things? I can handle it as a small department manager of Mi's Business Group.

"How dare you waste my brother's time with these things? These are just the additions. Brother, please look at this. ”

After Guan Yi showed Mi Zhao in detail the various effects of tung oil, Mi Zhao couldn't be calm: "What is the cost of this thing, how much can it be shipped in January?" ”

Guan Yi's eyes rolled: "Dare to ask my brother, how much is the good paint on the Han Dynasty worth a stone now?" ”

The sumac tree and the tung tree were both important cash crops in ancient China. The difference is that the ancients recognized and applied the lacquer tree earlier. One of the biggest reasons for this difference is that the seeds of the sumac tree are edible. It is an important edible vegetable oil before rape flowers were introduced to China. The seeds (fruits) of the tung tree are inedible. Modern research generally believes that the widespread use of tung oil did not begin until at least the Song Dynasty.

However, lacquer extraction from lacquer trees is like rubber tapping from rubber trees, which requires a lot of manpower. Moreover, the growth of trees is slower than that of tung oil, and the amount of paint produced by a single tree is much less than that of a single tung oil.

So, the price of lacquer is very expensive. It has always been something for the nobility and cannot be popularized on a large scale. And furniture, pots and pans made of wood, without a layer of paint, it won't take long. Therefore, at least in this era, Guan Yi saw that there were very few wooden furniture in the homes of the common people of Shu and Han, and most of the cooking utensils were pottery.

"Well, Brother Xian, something as valuable as lacquer has never been measured in 'stone'. There are a lot of lacquer trees planted in Dahan and Soochow, and the price is relatively cheap, and the current market price of CD is 3,000 yuan a bucket. There are relatively few places where lacquer trees can be planted on the pseudo-Wei side, but the amount is larger than that of my Dahan and Dongwu, so the price is expensive. It's usually 5,000 dollars a bucket. ”

After listening to Mi Zhao's introduction, Guan Yi's whole body was trembling! Han system, the combination of the Gong for the combination, the ten for the rise, the ten liters for the bucket, the ten buckets for the Hu, the stone of the Hu. In other words, if tung oil is also sold at this price, the output of that humble oil mill is worth 30~500,000 yuan a month! This alone will crush the annual tax revenue of Fuling County! After deducting a little labor cost, this profit ......

Windfall! Crazy profits!

Fortunately, after all, before the crossing, we were in an era of information explosion, and I had seen all kinds of exaggerated things. This little stimulation can still be tolerated. So Guan Yi quickly calmed down. He also knows very well that after all, this tung oil business still has follow-up merchant transshipment, landing transaction tax, processing, sales and other costs. And if this new paint wants to replace the paint, it has to fight a price war or something - if it is expensive, tung oil will not be able to enter the homes of ordinary people, the quantity will not be able to go, and no matter how much production is useless. So the actual profit can't be that big.

"Brother Xian, I haven't told Brother Yu yet, what is the cost of this tung oil and what is the output?"

"Brother, before I talk about this, I would like to ask my brother to look at something first."

"Thou shalt ...... Anyway, something, hurry up and show it to me. Hmm~~~Articles of Association of Fuxing Stock Trading Company ......"

As the most prominent businessman of this era, when Mi Zhao looked through the articles of association, he was undoubtedly shocked by the things that the time-traveler had made that contained a large number of concepts related to modern companies limited by shares. And this is still a farmer who has never had the opportunity to control a large company.

"Wonderful! Wonderful! Mi Zhao suddenly threw away the thought of asking about the cost of tung oil just now: "Where is Daxian, who made this charter for the virtuous brother?" The foolish brother wants to ask him to be the chief treasurer of my Mi family's business! No, you can also give dry shares! ”

Looking at Guan Yi, who was smiling and silent, Mi Zhao was stunned: "Brother Xian, it won't be you, right?" ”

"Let my brother laugh, it's the foolish brother's clumsiness."

“…… You...... You ......"

"Well, my brother can see it. This revival society also has a 10% stake. To tell the truth, it was reserved for my brother. ”

"Good! The foolish brother confessed to this. Let's say, how much money does the virtuous brother want the foolish brother to invest in? ”

"I don't want money, but I want my brother to exchange 30% of the shares of the Mi family's firm."

"This ...... Brother Xian's mouth is a little wide. ”

"Is it big? It's not huge. ”

It has been more than half a year since she traveled to this era, and Guan Yi already knows the details of the Mi family very well.

This is the largest official businessman in Shu Han, although its hotels, Qinlou Chu Pavilion, and grocery stores are involved in all aspects. But its main business is very simple, which is to sell Shu brocade to Wei and Wu. A large amount of grain was then purchased from Wei and Wu.

It's that simple.

Although it is simple, the existence of the Mi family is extremely important to the Shu Han regime. It is a matter of life and death for the country.

Shu brocade is just silkworm weaving. But because of the beautiful style, the world loves it. So the price is extremely high. When Zhuge Liang was alive, he said: "The only way to defeat the enemy is to raise Jin'er." "In other words, military spending depends on Shu brocade!

The population under the official control of the Shu Han is small, and most of the territory of the country is mountainous except for the CD Plain, so the grain production has not been high. In order to maintain a very high proportion of standing armies and a large bureaucratic system (Shu Han had more officials than Cao Wei and Eastern Wu), it was necessary to buy large quantities of grain from Wei and Wu. And food is an out-and-out strategic material in this era. Therefore, if you want to purchase food in large quantities, you must come up with something that the other party's powerful cannot refuse. And up and down Shu Han, only Shu brocade can be used.

As an official and businessman of Shu Han, the Mi family has always undertaken the important task of selling Shu brocade and earning money to support the country and the army. Therefore, don't look at the Mi family's firm that has a single turnover of hundreds of millions of yuan in Shu brocade every year, but it really falls into the hands of the Mi family itself, in fact, it is only one or two million: if you earn too much, the country will get less. provoke the country, cancel your Mi family's Shu brocade monopoly, and change to an official businessman.

Moreover, as the clans within Shu Han began to grow and exert their strength in recent years, there were fewer and fewer yeoman farmers that the state could control. As a result, the Shu Han government's oppression of the Mi family became tighter and tighter, and the profits of the Mi family became thinner and thinner. According to Guan Yi's estimates, the current Mi family's annual net profit is about 10 million. Thirty percent of the shares, a year dividends of three million. This little money, he doesn't like it at all.

What he is interested in is the logistics channel that Mijia has been operating for many years. In the commercial society, logistics is king! There is also the semicolon set up everywhere by the Mijia firm: this is the largest intelligence network in Dahan. In the end, he wants to completely bind his interests with the Mi family through equity swaps.

"Hehehe, brother, don't think that the younger brother is too greedy. Little brother will tell you about the cost of this tung oil......"
