Chapter 564: Ponzi Scheme (6)
Liu An, the king of Huainan, came to the door in person, which was expected by Su Ren. I'm afraid that he won't come, as long as Liu An can come, it means that the bureau that Su Ren made is about to have a big harvest. What Su Ren was waiting for was this day, Liu An came, and Su Ren was completely relieved.
This time Liu An was very low-key, a bad horse, a carriage, followed by five guards in civilian clothes, and only Liu Qian accompanied him, which surprised Su Ren. When Liu Qian saw Su Ren, he didn't have time to hide the anger in his eyes. It seems that the hatred between them is no longer shared, in fact, Su Ren feels that there is no big enmity between him and Liu Qian, but he has made a little progress with the eldest prince Liu Buxian.
Liu An got out of the carriage and looked left and right, and the street was empty. Heavy clouds are pressing down from the northwest, and I am afraid that the slightest movement will cause heavy rain. This is the first rain of the year. Since the New Year's Festival, there has not been a drop of rain in the entire Huainan country, and this dark cloud has come just in time.
Su Ren was waiting in front of the door early, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "Welcome to the king!" ”
Liu An smiled: "Su Zhonglang is polite, this king suddenly bothered, and I ask Su Zhonglang to forgive me, isn't today the day to give dividends to those businessmen?" Why is there no one? ”
Su Ren said: "The king doesn't know, those people came early, they only need to verify the silk cloth, and someone will send the money to them within three days, so it's a lot faster, come early in the morning, and go back before lunch." ”
"I see, Su Zhonglang has done it very carefully!"
"Let the king laugh, please inside!"
Liu An walked inside, and then asked Su Ren: "I heard that there are a lot of people this time, and there must be a lot of money placed here in Su Zhonglang, and it will be distributed truthfully?" ”
Su Ren smiled: "I was born in a businessman, so I naturally understand the word integrity, since I said something good, then it must be done, not to mention that with this money, the construction of Jiangsu City is also a lot faster, and it is difficult for me to pay a few dividends." ”
"Hahaha! Mr. Su is really a god, and his tricks are exquisite. ”
Su Ren also smiled: "This is also a matter of no choice, it must be a big deal to build a city, and it is a little inappropriate to open your mouth to Your Majesty again, and you can only use this method, but please rest assured that the king will never be treacherous, and I will never be treacherous in my own heart because of so many people who help me do great things." ”
The guests and hosts are seated, and their own servants bring tea and pastries. Singing a sip of Su Ren's bitter tea, Liu An smashed his mouth and felt the bitter taste in his mouth. When this bitterness slowly turned into sweetness, the expression on Liu An's face also improved. This is not Liu An's idea of a micro-service private visit, ordinary emperors and officials put on ordinary people's clothes and go out for a walk, which is called a micro-service private visit, regardless of whether these people really go to observe the people's feelings or look for flowers and willows.
At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, there was no complete system of officials, and there were no restrictions on what clothes officials wore except for extraordinarily solemn sacrifices. It's just that in order to show their identity, those officials will deliberately put eye-catching marks on the carriage or other places to show their uniqueness, and there are no regulations on this mark, it can be said that the officials of the Han Dynasty are paying private visits every day.
The purpose of Liu An's coming today Su Ren knew in his heart that the first possibility was to send money, and the second was to withdraw capital. How to get Liu An's money depends on Su Ren's ability, a lot of foreshadowing has been done in the early stage, and everything depends on whether Liu An can be impressed today.
Looking left and right, Liu An put down the tea bowl: "How much money does Mr. Su need to build Jiangsu City?" ”
Su Ren smiled: "Speaking of which I am not afraid of the king's jokes, I used to think that it was easy to build, and I really understood what it means to spend money like running water, His Majesty's 30,000 gold and the Huainan people sent 10,000 gold in the past two months, plus my own money, all filled in, there was not even a splash, even with the full support of the Shuzhong Chamber of Commerce, I am afraid that it will not be built in a year and a half." ”
"Oh! In this way, it will take another year for Mr. Su to earn a lot of money! ”
"Perhaps! The king also knows that no one can say this kind of thing, and there is no guarantee whether it will be a profit or a loss when the time comes, but the king can rest assured that none of the money raised from Huainan will be less, and if this thing cannot be done, the principal of 10,000 gold will be returned to the Huainan people. ”
"Good, good! With Mr. Su's words, this king thanked Mr. Su for the people of Huainan. Liu An really got up and saluted Su Ren, and Su Ren returned the salute. Liu An smiled: "In this case, this king has a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not?" ”
"The king is polite, please say anything clearly!"
"This king also has some extra money in hand, it is not very useful to put it in the house, if you can help Mr. build Jiangsu City, and at the same time help the court to settle the Yue people, it is also a beautiful thing, even if the money is lent to Mr. Su, there are no dividends, this king will not mind, the same contribution to the court, how can Mr. Su be a single beauty?"
Su Ren frowned and thought about it for a moment: "I don't know how much money the king has to spare?" ”
"It's not much, it's just 20,000 gold! I don't know if it's enough? If it is not enough, this king will think of some more ways, and he can't watch His Majesty and Mr. Jiangsu City not be repaired. ”
"Shhhh......h Taking a breath of cool air, Su Ren silently recited in his mouth: "If calculated according to the 20% dividend, 20,000 gold per month is 4,000 gold, 50,000 gold a year, I'm afraid this matter is a little difficult, please forgive me." ”
"Humph!" Liu Qian snorted coldly: "Father only took money to help you because he saw you, but you actually pushed back, isn't my father's money money?" ”
Liu An waved his hand and said to Su Ren with a smile: "This king also knows that the monthly dividends of thousands of gold are indeed a little difficult Mr. Su, and this king also said that this king can not have dividends, as long as he waits for the construction of Jiangsu City, he can ...... according to His Majesty."
Su Ren hurriedly waved his hand: "No, this matter must not be." ”
"Why?"
"The king doesn't know, His Majesty took out 30,000 gold to account for 70% of Jiangsu's investment, and promised His Majesty that when Jiangsu City was built, according to the investment, 70% of the income will go to Your Majesty, if the king's 20,000 gold comes in, Your Majesty's investment will naturally decrease, how can you give Your Majesty 70% of the dividend? This matter can only be decided after consultation with His Majesty, and I hope that the King will understand. ”
"Hehehe!" Liu An smiled: "It's this king who lost his word, how can this king compare with His Majesty, since this is the case, this matter ......"
"Father, since he said that he wanted to consult with His Majesty, then send someone to report to His Majesty, the child thinks that His Majesty will not be so stingy, and His Majesty will not pay attention to the tens of thousands of gold."
Liu An looked at Su Ren: "What does Mr. Su think?" ”
Su Ren lowered his head and pondered, but did not answer. wants to capture him, so he plays very skillfully, and at this time, even if Liu An wants to quit, some people are already unwilling. As long as Emperor Liu Che dared to make up his mind to get rid of the tumor of Huainan Kingdom, naturally there was no disagreement. Su Ren had already seen the result, and although his face was entangled, his heart was happy.
"In this case, I will send someone Pegasus to Chang'an, and the king can endure it for half a month, and when His Majesty's reply arrives, he will come to the door in person."
Sending Liu An away, Su Ren hummed a song in the room, and the tune was lively but others had never heard of it. Han Qing has always been by Su Ren's side, and he has listened to the conversations of several people, and they are all smart people, so they naturally know what the final result is, and they are also very happy. Su Renzhen sent someone to Chang'an, but instead of discussing with Liu Che, he informed Liu Che of the matter of Huainan, because Liu Che did not contribute a single money at all in the construction of Jiangsu City.
In the past half a month, Liu An will come to Su Ren to sit here every few days, and what he says is gossip, but both of them understand in their hearts what the purpose of his coming is. Half a month passed quickly, and the people sent to Chang'an also returned, and after reading Liu Che's letter, Su Ren's heart was completely relieved. In the matter of cutting the feudal domain, Liu Che was much more determined than Emperor Wen back then, especially for those princes and kings with bad intentions, Liu Che was even more ruthless.
Su Ren's plan can be regarded as a salary draw from the bottom of the kettle, one is the king of Hengshan and the other is the king of Huainan, one is from the rule of the soil, the other is cut off from its financial resources, the two are done cleanly, even if they are aware of it in the future, it has been done, without land and money, it is not so easy for these princes and kings to rebel.
Liu Che's letter is very simple, in just thirty or fifty words, he agrees with all the assignments made by Su Ren, and his incomparable trust in Su Ren is reflected between the lines. Not only did he make concessions to Liu An's investment, but other people were willing to share a part of the benefits as long as they participated in the construction of Jiangsu City, which fully showed the mind of an emperor.
After reading it, Liu An couldn't help but turn his head and glance at his son Liu Qian. If he was still skeptical about Su Ren's plan at the beginning, after this letter, Liu An completely dispelled his doubts, and the emperor admitted it, even if Su Ren had the ability, could he still let the emperor tell lies?
"Mr. Su, Your Majesty's letter has arrived, you see ......"
Su Ren said: "Since Your Majesty has no objections, I will ask the king to send the gold tomorrow, and I promise that I will return it twice by this time next year." ”
"Hahaha...... very good! It's just a small discrepancy. ”
"Oh? What's the difference? ”
"This king decided to invest 40,000 gold, instead of the 20,000 gold he said."
"Forty thousand?" Su Ren was overjoyed, and immediately stepped forward to give a salute to Liu An: "Thank you to the king, with the king's 40,000 gold, the construction of Jiangsu City will be faster, and many facilities that dare not be built can also be launched. ”
Liu An waved his hand: "Mr. Su doesn't have to be polite, you and I will swear an oath today, and I will send someone to deliver the gold tomorrow!" This is all the king's savings, and Mr. Su can save some money. ”
"Ugh! Hehe, it must be! ”
Forty thousand gold, that is, forty thousand taels of gold, according to the weights and measures of the Han Dynasty, one catty is two hundred and fifty grams, one two twenty-five grams, and forty thousand gold is one million grams of gold, one thousand kilograms. When the box containing the gold came, there were twenty large boxes, each of which was divided into three layers, and each layer was densely stacked with golden horseshoe gold.
Su Ren let out a sigh of relief: "It's finally here, send someone to inform Lao Cui that he will go out of the city overnight, and he can't stay in the city for a moment longer!" ”
