Chapter 505: Returning Home
It affects the whole body, especially in the chain of interests.
Although the Huangsong Qianzhuang has only been in operation for half a year, its power has begun to penetrate into the entire society. The annual interest of thirty percent is even more than ten times cheaper than the Wen Tangli in the temple.
And it is the first to save money to pay interest.
The sharp increase in the gate tax of Luzhong Commercial Road is actually just a fierce counterattack by vested interests.
If the Imperial Song Dynasty money village was laid along the trade road, the wealthy gentry in various places would no longer be able to use the model of usury to squeeze the hard-earned money of the people.
Before there was no Huang Song Dynasty, the people had to borrow usury in order to repay the treatment of illness or other reasons, and they might have to sell their children and daughters to sell their fields to return them, but now the people don't have to break their homes. The annual interest of 30% still seems to be high, but as long as you hold your hands tightly, you can still pay it back.
But since then, it is bound to offend the gentry of the whole world.
Fortunately, Huang Song Qianzhuang has a royal background, and the emperor personally participates in the shares, they do not have the courage to move Huang Song Qianzhuang, but it is still very necessary to strike at the culprit who made suggestions.
Wang Bingchen took over the undertaking of the newspaper, and asked Wen Qihang for the technical secret recipe for printing, which was just an appetizer.
Wen Qihang believes that there will be more follow-up means.
After all, new technology means new sources of revenue.
If it weren't for being a noble, but just an ordinary person, this can bring new technology that can bring a lot of money, I'm afraid it would have been forcibly seized long ago.
It is easy to choke to death if you eat alone, and later generations of Taizu have said that it is necessary to unite all the forces that can be united.
Since we all like new technologies, it's better to make them all public.
"The secret recipe of Nine Flowers Jade Dew, you also have to sell it!" Old man Mei's eyes now are completely like looking at a loser.
"Don't suffer, 30,000!" Smell the sail and take a good time.
"........" Old man Mei persuaded bitterly: "Thirty thousand times seems to be a lot, but it is only for a short time. If you keep this secret recipe, your children and grandchildren will not have to worry about food and clothing. ”
"Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, what kind of ability is it to gnaw on the old. If they have all their hands and feet and still want me to support them, then it is better to beg, at least it can be regarded as self-reliance. Wen Qihang said disapprerovingly.
"The old man knows that the secret recipe for printing books and paper can't be saved, but you won't break the jar, right?" Old man Mei shook his head helplessly and sighed.
"It's nothing if it's all sold, as long as it can reopen Luzhong Commercial Road as soon as possible." Smell the fairway.
"If you sell it, will the business road be reopened?" Old man Mei wondered.
Wen Qihang smiled: "Of course, since they have obtained so many secret recipes, they have to find a way to make money!" If they are all crowded in Beijing, how fierce the competition is, they have to find a way to expand the market!
At that time, not only the Luzhong merchants, but also the Li Tang, Mengshu, Liao, and Uighurs, as long as there are people, they will find ways to open up.
If they all count on me, how many nails can I hit even if I am covered in iron?
I have worked so hard to open two trade routes, and I am already tired to death.
Leave this kind of thing to someone else! ”
"What's in it for you?" Old man Mei wondered.
"That's a lot." Wen Qihang said with a smile.
“........ Okay, as long as you know what to expect. Old man, I am old, and now I can't see the way of the world clearly. Old man Mei lamented.
Since he met Wen Qihang, he found that the rules that his ancestors had used for hundreds or even thousands of years could no longer be applied when he arrived at Wen Qihang.
Since ancient times, the technology inheritance of Huaxia has been passed down from father to son and master to apprentice, and it is better to die than to leak it.
It can be heard that since Yan Shen set sail, he has taken these technologies that can make future generations have no worries about food and clothing, and spread them everywhere.
But if you want to say that he did something wrong, the property of the Jue Mansion has been increasing several times, and his granddaughter Yiqi has been in charge of the account books of the Jue Mansion.
Although the Jue Mansion does not have much money left now, and even owes foreign debts, he knows how terrifying the assets of the Jue Mansion have swelled in just two years.
If it is said that the rich can rival the country, it is a little reluctant, but if it is said that it is the rich side, there is absolutely no problem.
"Old man, technology is time-sensitive. Even if it can be done for a long time, it is difficult to keep it secret, soap is a lesson from the past, flower water is simple to make, just a few flavors of medicinal materials, it won't take long, others will know, it is better to take advantage of the best-selling now, and put it in the bag as soon as possible.
And even if we don't have toilet water, we can study something else!
For example, perfume, the lethality of that thing to a woman is comparable to that of an atomic bomb! Seeing that Old Man Mei had no heart, this is not good, Wen Qihang said comfortingly.
"Perfume? Atomic bomb? Old man Mei was stunned.
"Ah, it's a liquid that is more fragrant than flower water, as long as it is sprayed on the body and clothes, it can emit a long-lasting fragrance, and you can choose any fragrance you want. For example, roses, such as moon seasons, such as ........ Anyway, as long as there is a floral fragrance in this world, it can be made. Wen Qihang introduced.
“........ You, why do you always get some women's objects........" Old Man Mei said speechlessly.
Wen Qihang smacked his lips and said: "No way, the best money in the world is the money of women and children." ”
“........ What do you do if you make so much money! Old man Mei frowned. A gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way, no matter how you look at it, it has now reached the point of unscrupulous means in order to make money, and as a nobleman, being too rich is also a kind of death.
"Open academies, run medical centers, teach the world, so that everyone can take care of the old and rely on the young. The saints are not the common sayings: the old and the old, the young and the young.
To do these things, how can you do it without money! Wen Qihang said confidently.
“........”
The lowly merchant trail can be combined with the pursuit of the saints of the past generations. But no matter how you look at it, it reveals such a disharmony.
"Don't talk about that." Old man Mei waved his hand and said, "This time, Yan Shen came to a few scholars, and several of them still have an old relationship with you. They originally came to participate in the imperial examination of the imperial court, but this is ........ The ranking is not ideal.
They asked the old man to ask you if you could study at Tsinghua Academy for a while. ”
"Yes, the day after tomorrow will be a unified examination for admission. Let them participate. ”
Old man Mei worried: "If this happens, if it falls off the list again, the old man is afraid that the spirit of these young people will be broken." ”
Wen Qihang said with a smile: "I have already published the test questions in the newspaper, if this is not passable, then even if I make an exception to accept them, they will not have much future in the future." ”
“........ Also. Old man Mei nodded and sighed lightly: "Our Yan Shen, our ancestors have belonged to your kid's official position for generations, and there is also the possibility of further progress."
If you can carry them, please carry them.
Although there was some dislike between you, after all, you were both young at that time, and there was no deep hatred, just a small misunderstanding.
It would be best if you could release your suspicions. ”
Wen Qihang smiled and said, "Old man, don't worry." ”
"Well, and take care of Yiqi........"
"Old man, you are ........," Wen Qihang felt that something was not right with Old Man Mei.
Old man Mei looked into the distance, and said silently: "In a few days, the villagers will go back, and the old man wants to go back with them, and this time he has been out for a long time........ Yiqi, she, although ........ But I finally got His Majesty's pardon, at least I had no problem surviving.
Thank you kid for this......." Old man Mei smiled, and continued: "The old man doesn't care about your young people's affairs. Yiqi, she, I'll leave it to you.
If there is a result between you, bring a letter to the old man........"
"Old man, you ........"
Hearing that Qihang just wanted to persuade him, Old Man Mei smiled and raised his hand to stop it: "The fallen leaves return to the roots, when you are old, you can't say when, you can't do it........ It's better to go back early. ”
“........ Yiqi she, do you know? Seeing that Old Man Mei had made up his mind, he didn't persuade him when he heard that he had set sail.
Old man Mei sighed lightly: "When you leave, let's talk about it." ”
Wen Qihang groaned and said: "After the reopening of the Luzhong Commercial Road, a large number of medicinal materials will be needed. If the children of the family have spare endowment, you can try to plant medicinal materials, just like farming, we Yanshen there are many mountains and little land, and the land is not fertile, always go up the mountain to collect medicine, the yield is limited after all, you can try to plant it yourself. ”
"Your heart, I will bring to the villagers." Old man Mei nodded and said with a smile.
