Li Feibai's face showed pain, as if someone was cutting meat on his thigh with a knife, and after a long time, he said, "Father-in-law, Xiao'er will definitely agree to other things without hesitation." But in this matter, I have offended a friend who must not be offended, and the price per catty has been reduced by twenty-five cents, no matter how low the price is, I will definitely die of regret! ”

Qian Mutong nodded in disappointment: "Understood!" ”

Suddenly, Li Feibai said: "But since the father-in-law opened his mouth, the child didn't let go, it's really unreasonable!" ”

Qian Mutong's face reappeared with joy, and said, "How much cheaper can it be per catty?" ”

Li Feibai said: "Cheap really can't be cheaper!" Father, do you think this will work? This time I went to Quanzhou to transport grain, how about I bear all the expenses? ”

Qian Mutong couldn't help but shake his head, this Li Feibai really deserves to be a good businessman, don't you have any luck if I buy your things? Do I have to go there myself? It was originally a matter of course, but how did it end up in this kid's mouth, but it was a concession?

However, he didn't take this little thing to heart, and it would cost him a few dollars to transport grain, and thousands of taels of silver were enough.

He originally wanted Li Feibai to lower the price to 300,000 taels, so that it would be enough money to buy corn. Since Li Feibai didn't drop a penny, he had to think of a second way, saying: "Two million taels of silver is two million taels!" But I have a request, the money will not be paid until the end of the year! ”

Li Feibai said: "So, does my father-in-law want to pay on credit?" ”

Qian Mu channel: "Don't worry, you should collect taxes in two months, and if you harvest corn in the autumn, the two add up, and pay you more than two million taels of silver." ”

Li Feibai said: "So, my father-in-law couldn't give it at that time, and it had to be delayed for nearly a year to give?" ”

Qian Mutong nodded helplessly.

Li Feibai said: "That is to say, you have to owe me 30 million catties of corn on credit first." ”

Qian Mutong nodded helplessly again.

To be honest, he really didn't want to admit that he was on credit. Is it possible that the dignified political envoy Yamen is so poor that he owes a merchant two million taels of silver? If this is going to be spread, how can you still see people!

Li Feibai said: "I'm sorry, father-in-law, I don't owe credit for small transactions!" ”

The people in the room couldn't believe their ears, Qian Mutong, the big man of the second grade, opened his mouth, and he was also the nominal father-in-law, Li Feibai dared to refuse, which was too faceless!

Qian Mutong's face turned blue instantly, and he couldn't bear the sentence: "Don't buy it!" "Speak up. After thinking about it, Fang said, "You really can't take out two million taels?" Or I'll buy 300,000 taels! As for those who did not plant corn, they could only obey the fate of heaven! ”

The implication is that if you want innocent people to starve to death, then do as you want.

Li Feibai said: "If my father-in-law really wants two million taels of corn, I have a way!" ”

Qian Mutong said "oh", but didn't speak!

Li Feibai was mysterious, and said, "Has Yifu heard of the bank?" ”

……

The matter was soon negotiated, and the political envoy Yamen would borrow 2 million taels with a monthly interest rate of 20,000 taels in the name of "persuading the peasants" like the First Commercial Bank of Daming. Tomorrow, the political envoy Yamen will send a special person to the bank to sign the contract.

Although there is a solution to the matter, thinking that he will pay an extra 200,000 taels of silver for this, Qian Mutong does not feel pain. That's 200,000 taels! Definitely not a small amount.

Li Feibai also saw Qian Mutong's expression, and said, "Does my father-in-law want to earn back the two million and 2.2 million taels of silver?" ”

Can you earn back two million two hundred and twenty thousand taels of silver? And it's rolling back to earn back? How is this possible! Now, not only Qian Mutong, but also Fu Yuan and Qian Zijun also showed curious looks, seeing what Li Feibai could do!

Li Feibai didn't sell Guanzi, and said directly: "I can sell seeds, can't Yifu sell seeds?" ”

A word to wake up the dreamer! Everyone was thinking about it.

As long as there is a good corn harvest this year, don't those who don't have to pay taxes want to turn the one-season harvest into two crops a year?

Not to mention anything else, there are still 40 million acres of land in Henan alone, and the key to how much you can earn depends on how much a pound of corn seeds can be sold for!

Now, they are in a hurry to buy seeds, and there is no way to get the price high! Those who buy seeds in the coming year are not in a hurry, and the price should be as much as it should be!

If Li Feibai's estimate is correct, one mu of real estate is 700 catties. Seven hundred catties can be sold for at least 700 wen, leaving behind all kinds of expenses, there should be no problem in earning 300 wen per mu.

One acre of land is one hundred and fifty wen a year, and many people should do it! One acre of land needs three catties of seeds, which means that fifty cents per catty of seeds should be reasonable.

Henan 40 million acres of land, three catties per acre, that is, 120 million catties, how much is three catties per acre?

It turned out to be eighteen million taels of silver! That's more than double!

Of course, it is impossible for everyone to spend fifty yuan to buy a pound of seeds, even if only thirty percent of people buy it, it is more than five million taels of silver!

This does not include those from other provinces, as long as there are four or five provinces to buy more than 5 million taels, that is more than 20 million taels of income! Henan has never been so arrogant!

Of course, this is only an estimate, it is possible in the best of circumstances, and there are many unexpected surprises.

After a bumper corn harvest, can you concentrate all the corn in the official warehouse? Even if you can concentrate all the corn in the hands of the peasants in the official warehouse, do you take the money from the peasants, or exchange wheat with the peasants?

Collected from the peasants, do you have so much money? Take wheat and exchange it for farmers, do you have so much wheat? At most, an order prohibiting smuggling is issued, but who will carry out such an order.

And is the official warehouse enough? Can you save so much corn? Those princes want to buy them at a low price, do you dare to offend?

And so on, and so on, if the province controls the checkpoint, it may be able to earn more. This province, hehe, you should laugh secretly if you can make 12 million taels by selling seeds!

However, it's okay, it's not bad to make millions of taels by selling seeds, and that's not counting the taxes collected! That's a staggering amount of money.

Fu Yuan was the first to figure out the truth here, and said: "This matter will be discussed later, the most important thing now is how to transport the corn from Quanzhou to Henan without accident!" ”

He saw that Qian Mutong, Feng Jiangting, and Kou Zidun all turned their eyes to his side, and smiled very satisfied.

It's not easy, after such a long time, he finally has someone to listen to him, and no one is going against him openly and secretly!

Qian Mutong and the other three had puzzled expressions on their faces, and he knew in his heart why the three of them were confused!

Oh, yes! He had wondered so before. What is there to discuss about transporting corn from Quanzhou to Henan, just send someone to pull it directly! But Li Feibai's words dispelled his doubts. If you want to gain a firm foothold in Henan, you have to bow down in person, at least in the early stage!

Then Li Feibai added. To put it bluntly, it is to brush up on the sense of existence, so that the big and small officials and even the people of Henan, you are the one who says the same!

Brushing the sense of existence, first brother, these two words are very fresh, and he can roughly understand what they mean, so he agrees with Li Feibai's statement!

Fu Yuandao: "This matter is related to the well-being of the entire people of Henan, our future, and the future of the Ming Dynasty, so there is no room for mistakes!" ”

He knocked on the table, and said in an accentuated tone: "To ensure that nothing goes wrong, before harvesting wheat, corn must be transported to Henan!" To this end, I decided to set up a Henan autumn grain planting leading group, referred to as the Heqiu group! ”
