Chapter 303: Wealth and Danger Seeking
At this time, Changsun Rong didn't know that the woman he was haunted by had run away from home. Today he is going to discuss an important matter with Wu Shi Tong, monopolizing the silk business in Jiangnan.
In just over a month, the profit has been so huge. Changsun Rong is like a big smoker who can't do without opium, and he can't do without the hugely profitable business of silk. This year, he took advantage of the early, and the other nobles did not react. But next year will be different, and the big families will pounce like vultures that see carrion.
If you want to occupy such a business for a long time, you must completely cut off the silk business. It is not only necessary to monopolize the vicinity of Yangzhou, but also to monopolize the entire Jiangnan. It all takes money, a huge amount of money. Changsun Rong's ambition grows like a weed, and his determination to become the richest man in the Tang Dynasty is unshakable.
Wu Shi Tong sat upright on the Taishi chair in the study, which was a newly made chair from the Yun family. There's a loop on the back that sits right on the back. It's not only comfortable to sit on, but also very stylish. In particular, this chair is still made of sandalwood, which is even more stylish.
This kind of thing must not be discussed in the hall, and the study room has become the best place.
"Young Master Rong, it is absolutely impossible to raise prices. Once we raise the price too high, those beards will buy silk through others. You know, not only Yangzhou has a city division. There is also a city company in Quanzhou, and there is also a city in Guangzhou. The reason why I don't go to those places is because the silk there is not as good as Jiangnan, and our prices are lower than theirs.
As soon as the price of your side rises, it will rise so much, and those Hu people are not stupid. You don't think they will entrust Quanzhou or Guangzhou to buy it on their behalf. Although the shipping cost will be a bit higher, it is still more cost-effective than your price. Samurai Tong looked helplessly at the ambitious guy in front of him.
These sons and sons are like this, they have enough ambition but not enough talent. Now that you have caught a way to make money, why don't you squeeze money out of it? The ladies and gentlemen have never hated the speed of making money. Because the speed at which they spend money is really amazing, I heard that this eldest grandson recently got a new powder. However, in three or five days, the cost of money has reached thousands of times.
It's really inlaid with gold edges, it was in Jinyang back then. Even if it is the palace lady in Jinyang Palace, there is no need for this price. It's really old, and the world of young people can't understand it.
Fortunately, this eldest grandson's reputation is still good, and he should give himself a lot of money. If it weren't for that, the samurai wouldn't have bothered to talk to him more.
"Ying Guogong, we want to monopolize the silk business in the entire Jiangnan. You know, this year's new rules of the imperial court came out suddenly. None of the others reacted, but next year will be different. If we don't lay the foundation this year, next year's silk market will not be ours. The income of this business is so large, are you willing to be divided by others? Changsun Rong's rhetorical question, Wu Shi Tong immediately lost his words.
In just over a month, the profits were so lucrative, which made Samurai Tong see the hope of the family's prosperity. Since the career stops here, let's make some money. It doesn't hurt to have more money, no matter what time it is. Besides, these losers in the family have no money to support them.
"That's not how to make money! You do the math and see if there are other ways to make money. What is the money bank, if there is a mortgage, it is not difficult to get hundreds of thousands of yuan. ”
"Ying Guogong, what you said is boring. You don't know what the relationship between the Yun family and my family is, he Yun Hao will lend me money? If he is willing to borrow it, should we also do it? Aren't you afraid, this is Yun Hao's trick? Changsun Rong's words made Wu Shi Tong speechless again.
"Yes, there was a Hu man from Feng Ang a few days ago. What is the name of Apdule, it is the Hu people of the west. I heard that the financial resources are very strong, and it seems that I also want to do a silk business. I was angry with Feng An, so I came to Yangzhou. This guy has a huge amount of money, why don't we borrow from him? Wu Shitong's eyes suddenly lit up, and he thought of the Hu Shang he had met two days ago.
"This is a solution, and it doesn't matter if the interest rate is higher than that of the bank. However, the beard also has to be mortgaged to borrow money. What mortgage do we take? I don't have any real estate in Jiangnan, but there are a lot of industries in Chang'an. But when I came out, I also mortgaged a lot in order to raise money. Now the only one who can move is the Piguo Mansion, if people know that I will mortgage the Guogong Mansion. How can I mix in Chang'an in the future? Changsun Rong's eyes also lit up, but when he thought that he needed collateral for loans, his eyes immediately dimmed. He is in Jiangnan, and he really has nothing to mortgage.
"This ......!" Wu Shi Tong couldn't speak, no matter what, he would not mortgage his own property and follow Changsun Rong crazy.
"Ying Guogong, you are now in charge of Yangzhou. This Yangzhou City Ship Division is also your final say, if you take the Yangzhou City Ship Division of the silver as collateral, is it possible to lend the money. Changsun Rong thought for a while, and suddenly spoke.
"The city is a silver ......!" The samurai hesitated, this is the tax silver of the imperial court, and it will be put into the treasury at the end of the year. This kind of thing is done, and it is predictable that someone will be caught and robbed of the title.
"Ying Guogong, you need to be bold when things come to an end. The silver of the city department will not be handed over until the end of the year, and besides, we are using this thing as collateral. The money doesn't have to go out of the warehouse at all, and naturally it won't let people grab the pigtails. Not to mention the end of the year, as long as it is November, the silk business is over. This kind of thing is unaware of people.
I said Ying Guogong, you were also the Yuanmou Commander who followed the Emperor Taishang to raise troops. The rebellion was done at the beginning, but now how can I hesitate.
This title of yours is not a hereditary repudiation with the country, but a marquis in the next generation. If the next generation is not angry, he will become an earl. Gonghou Bozi male, this is not more than five generations, your family is Bai Ding. Think not for yourself, but for future generations. Since ancient times, you have sought wealth and danger, and your title as the duke of the country is not because of the original work of the dragon. Fight this time, lay a foundation for future generations, a thousand is worth it, Ying Guogong! Changsun Rong's words made the warrior Tong stunned for a long time.
Back then, for the sake of this wealth, he took the risk of killing his head. Today, for the sake of future generations, I can't say that I have to fight this old bone again. What a rich and dangerous one!
A horizontal heart, a bite of teeth! The warrior said in a deep voice: "Okay, the old man will take on this role." However, the old man's share should be added by one percent. ”
PS: The city is equivalent to the customs duties of later generations.
