"Han Shangshu, let's find someone to invest money in, but we have to give it back to others. You've invested a lot in this project, but it seems to be paying off very slowly. ”

Yuan Zhe said worriedly.

In terms of the current environment, it is not difficult to attract investment, because the business development is very good, and many powerful people who have money cannot find a place to invest, but their investment must be rewarded. For such a huge project, money is being thrown in the early stage, even if it is three years, who would be willing to wait for three years.

Han Yi smiled: "Who said that the effect is slow? My plan was immediate. ”

"Immediate results?"

Dou Heng didn't believe it and said, "How can this work immediately?" Needless to say, this shipbuilding also takes time. ”

Han Yi said: "Don't forget, the whole plan was born on the reform of Caoyun, how to complete the transition from Caoyun to private?" Quite simply, ships. ”

"Ships?"

"Not bad."

Han Yi said: "If you wait until you have built all the ships, and then start, not to mention that you don't have the kung fu to wait, even if you can afford it, the imperial court can't afford it." Therefore, the imperial court will sell some of the ships to you, the price is negotiable, and the payment can be deferred, Wanli and Changyun will repair and modify the ships, and they can be transferred to Shandong and Guanzhong, and the number of ships sold to you by the imperial court will indicate how much goods will be handed over to you for transportation, and the imperial court will allocate funds to you, and after you get the funds, you can take the money and put it into it. With ships, cargo, money, you can get up and running in no time. Secondly. ”

With that, he suddenly stood up and went back to the diagram.

Zheng Shanxing and the others also hurriedly followed.

"What is this?"

Han Yi took the thin bamboo and drew a large circle on the top of the demonstration map, "Look, what is this?" ”

What the?

The four of them all looked at Han Yi with a puzzled expression, you have a thin bamboo, you are not a pen, and you can't even draw a circle.

"This is the market!"

Han Yi rolled his eyes and said, "Now your business is basically focused on some Shangzhou, and you ignore these small markets, if these small markets are integrated, the benefits are huge." Whether it's shipbuilding or transportation, it's all about the market, and the bigger the market, the higher your profits, and it can also save you costs.

When your goods are transported from Yangzhou to Chang'an, if it is only two points and one line, this freight will be very high, but if there are many points during this period, then every two points can generate benefits, so when you go halfway, the cost has come back, then the cost will naturally be reduced. This is also a major drawback of Caoyun, why Caoyun has to spend so much money in the case of servitude of the people, the main reason is two points and one line.

And my plan is to subdivide more points, so that the merchants will have a larger market, and they will surely produce more goods, and more goods will be transported, and these new points will also produce goods, and the volume of goods you transport will increase exponentially, and in three years, your annual profit will be so great that you cannot imagine it now. ”

The businessmen standing here now are all famous and wealthy businessmen with rich experience, and after Han Yi's little contact, they can naturally understand, and their eyes can't help but shine with excitement, and they make eye contact with each other.

Yuan Zhe said excitedly: "Han Shangshu's plan is really amazing, and we are willing to participate in it, but this matter is not something that the four of us can decide, we have to go back and discuss it." ”

The other three also nodded.

Having said that, judging from their expressions, Han Yi knew that they were already tempted, as long as they were tempted, then it was not a big problem, because their collaborators were all local tyrants, and they were not very proficient in buying and selling. Han Yi smiled: "Of course, but I hope you can give me an answer as soon as possible, because I still have a lot to plan." ”

"Definitely."

After this talk, several people didn't care about eating here, and immediately rushed back.

Because this is a super big plan, Han Yi said that it was three years, but these three years are just to replace Caoyun, if it is to be implemented all over the country, this is not more than ten or twenty years, it is impossible, there is also the northwest region, because this is a management model, not the technical development of river engineering, so it can also be applied to northwest trade.

In the big picture, it's a time-changing project.

If the whole country were to trade, the small-scale peasant economy would collapse and be replaced by a commercial civilization.

Han Yi didn't lie to them, the benefits were unimaginable to them, and only Han Yi knew how many benefits there were.

But as a minister and an official, you must have the eloquence to fool the people and the emperor at the top, so that you can succeed.

After talking to the four major groups, then it's time to talk to the emperor next, the reason why Han Yi didn't talk to the emperor before was because he didn't have chips in his hands, you said that Dou Heng was willing to pay for the twenty miles of road privately, I want to believe it? After approaching the businessman, there was a basis for cooperation, and Han Yi had enough bargaining chips to further discuss some substantive issues with the emperor.

Today, Li Zhi convened a meeting of the cardinal ministers, which does not include the three giants of Naluozhou, because the imperial court still has rules and regulations, and the cardinal meeting can only be attended by the cardinal ministers, otherwise, it will be meaningless to go to the three products under the door of the same Zhongshu, because the meeting a few days ago was only to discuss the Sanmenshan accident, not at the level of the cardinal meeting, Li Zhi did not expect that Han Yi would magnify the move as soon as he came up, and this time it was purposeful, and it was the highest level meeting, besides, Li Zhi also did not want new contradictions to break out between the officials of Luozhou and the cardinal ministers.

"That's the whole plan."

Han Yi stood next to the demonstration diagram and put the thin bamboo down.

Li Zhi, Li Yifu and others got up one after another, stepped forward, and almost put their faces on the demonstration map.

"Wonderful! That's wonderful! ”

Lu Chengqing couldn't help but shake his head and muttered to himself, of course, he didn't take into account any cost issues, he praised this management model, which is definitely a new management model, much more advanced than the previous one.

Xu Yushi even said: "Your Majesty, although this method was born for Cao Yun, the minister thought that it could also be used for the management of the imperial court. ”

Li Zhi looked at the demonstration picture, nodded again and again, and said, "What Aiqing said is good, and I have also been inspired a lot, haha!" ”

Han Yi said: "Your Majesty, everyone, in addition to this, this set of management models can also bring five major benefits to the imperial court. ”

"Really? Tell me about it. ”

"Yes."

Han Yi said: "First, the warehouse. Under this new management model, warehouses will be built by the imperial court, and will be used for both public and private purposes, not only for the imperial court's use, but also for renting out some to merchants. This benefit will be durable, even permanent, and with the closer the flow of goods, the court will benefit from it higher, and the court can use this expense for the grain escort to offset the expenditure on the transportation.

Second, in this set of management mode, the liquidation method can be brought into full play, not only limited to grain. Since the warehouse belongs to the imperial court, it is natural for the imperial court to set up a regulatory mechanism on the major docks, and even a tariff system. Depending on the local situation, tariffs are mediated to protect the local economy. In the prefectures and counties where there is a relatively large grain output, the tariffs should be raised to prevent grain from other places from being transported in, and grain prices from other places should be further lowered to ensure the interests of the peasants. In this way, Chang'an does not need to mobilize grain everywhere, and can reduce the damage caused by food prices in the fastest way.

Third, the emergency mechanism. With the construction of warehouses in various places, the balance of goods is ensured, especially in the case of emergencies. For example, if our army is fighting in the east, if the grain and grass are burned, the situation in the past is that Chang'an receives the news, and then orders the states and counties to collect grain and transport it to the front. And under my management mode, because of the exchange of goods, there must be grain in warehouses around the country, and when it is sent to various places, the imperial court only needs to discuss with some businessmen and spend money to buy their grain, I believe that in this case, the businessmen will definitely agree, so they can send the grain to the front line directly from the nearest warehouse to the front line as soon as possible, and the warehouses have been built on the top of the key rush, extending in all directions, which will save a lot of time for the front-line soldiers.

Of course, this is just one of the contingencies, and these warehouses can have a huge impact on many contingencies.

Fourth, it connects the states and counties of the country, so that information can be communicated, so that the instructions of the imperial court can be implemented quickly and effectively.

Fifth, to bring wealth to local states and counties, improve the situation of local states and counties, today, many states and counties are still relatively poor, and the main problem is because their local food production is insufficient, and the roads are blocked, unable to contact the outside world, and in my set of operation mode, is to try to connect the states and counties across the country, in that way, those states and counties due to insufficient food production, can also make goods, in exchange for food and wealth. ”

Han Yi didn't say this to the businessman, of course, he wouldn't discuss the cost issue with Li Zhi, he told Li Zhi that these things are all about the whole country, and the analysis is also how much benefit this set of operation models will bring to the country, as for the input and cost issues, Han Yi told them that they don't understand!

And these questions are understood by them as soon as they hear them, because this is a problem that they often encounter.

Li Zhi was excited when he heard this, and laughed and said: "Aiqing's move can chase the car of Li Si, the prime minister of the Qin Dynasty, on the same track, and the book is the same as the text!" ”

Xu Jingzong's eyes flickered a few times, and he also said: "What Your Majesty said is extremely true, this method is indeed wonderful!" ”

Li Yifu was taken aback when he heard it, why did Xu Jingzong wear a pair of pants with Han Yi at this time, but after thinking about it carefully, he also understood that if the imperial decree can become faster and more effective, who is the most beneficial, of course, it is for the prime minister, this is undoubtedly to reduce the power of local states and counties, and enhance the power of the central government. Then the central government can get the message very quickly and convey the instructions.

The prime minister is like this, the emperor is even more so, if this set of operation mode is adopted, what festival will definitely be ancient, why is the festival in the middle of the Tang Dynasty so powerful, is because he controls finance, administration, and military politics, and the finance is particularly critical, no finance, to talk about military politics, that is to play hooligans, people fight for money, who gives money, I listen to whom.

Once the grain and money are active, the power of the central government does not actually increase, but the power of the local states and counties is reduced, and the power of the central government increases in comparison.

For example, in the military administration of the northwest, you don't need to hoard food so far away in Daduhu, you can hoard it in the surrounding area, you only need to stock up on food in Daduhufu to ensure its operation, and once Daduhufu needs food, the surrounding warehouses will immediately send grain over. As long as the connection between the places is opened, the power can be decentralized.

Of course, at present, whether it can produce such a big role in the northwest is still just a kind of imagination, and it still needs a lot of efforts to really reach that point, because the northwest road is not easy to walk, and there is no water transportation, but at least there is no problem in the Central Plains, and this Rome was not built in a day.

Li Zhi patted Han Yi's shoulder extremely happily and said, "Aiqing, even if you let it go, I will definitely support you." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, the minister will not fail in his mission."

"Good, good!"
