Chapter 407: Connecting the World
Due to the Hamada Yabei incident, Japan's relationship with the Dutch is now like fire and water, and the war is very imminent, and the Japanese general also fantasizes that the Ming Dynasty can help Japan in the war with the Netherlands. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
There were no accidents, and when the trade negotiations were held again, the share of copper ingots became 2 million catties, the price dropped by 10%, and the supply of rice became 500,000 stones, and the price remained unchanged.
Huang Sheng also gave many business opportunities to the general of Zhengyi, and the Ming Dynasty purchased a large number of dried seafood, such as sea cucumbers, abalone, dried scallops, sea stinger skin, shark fins, large and small shrimps, shark and whale meat, and so on.
Huang Sheng had accumulated a lot of wealth through sea trade and sea raids, and he had a lot of silver in his hands, and of course he had to buy high-protein food to ship back to Daming. Nowadays, because the food of the common people in the Huang family system is meaty, there are often seafood, poultry eggs and meat to eat, and the food eaten has been much less.
In the past, the average Ming laborer could eat about two catties of grain a day, which is the so-called large amount of food, in fact, the reason why it can be eaten is because there is no oil and water, and now the Huang family's strong laborers can eat an average of one pound of grain a day, and they are all oily.
When Huang Sheng came to Japan, Li Guozhu was of course warmly received, and Huang Sheng stayed in Li Guozhu's private port on Hirado Island for three days.
Li Guozhu built a fortress in the port that was no different from Zhongming Fort, named "Li Jiabao" after his surname, arranged 20 artillery pieces, and the granary in the fortress was enough to store 200,000 stones, these buildings were of course the work of the Huang family engineers.
Huang Sheng attended the unveiling ceremony of the "Huaxia Big Money Village" and "Li Jiabao" branch, and it has become possible to deposit and withdraw silver in Japan from now on.
Merchants from all over the world who go to Daming to do business can withdraw cash anywhere there is a semicolon with the bill of exchange of "Huaxia Daqian Bank".
Now all the merchants think that cash is too inconvenient, and they are willing to use the gold and silver coins of "Huaxia Tongbao" to settle, because there is no fire consumption, and the profit is a lot more.
More and more businessmen and ordinary people use "Huaxia Tongbao", and the "Huaxia Daqianzhuang" semicolon that continues to take root has sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and it is no longer a dream to connect the world.
Huang Sheng is already considering negotiating with the Spanish governor in Manila next year to open a Manila branch of the "Huaxia Big Money Village" there, and Fei Fu can also consider doing so.
Huang Sheng led Asia's No. 1 navy around the South and East Seas and robbed 100 or so merchant ships, obtained goods worth no less than 3 million taels of silver, and captured 3,000 or 4,000 sailors from various countries.
It was already mid-October when I returned to "Huaxia Island" again, and after a year of uninterrupted emigration, there were 20,000 or 30,000 military and civilian households, more than 100,000 people, and more than 300,000 mu of tuntian.
Since the temperature of "Huaxia Island" is suitable, the land can not only be cropped twice, but also many cash crops can be interplanted, and next year after satisfying the supply of military and civilian personnel to "Huaxia Island," there will be a surplus of more than 200,000 stone of rice and wheat.
The output of the military and civilians of the Huang family system was sufficient for self-sufficiency, and the continuous import of grain was entirely for the sake of thousands of Han people in the Ming Dynasty.
Huaxia City has begun to take shape and will soon become a city with a population of more than 200,000 people, and because it has been operated with an open mind from the beginning, "Huaxia Island" is prosperous with commerce and shops.
Of course, the merchants are mostly Ming people, because there is no need to worry about transportation problems, Nanzhili merchants can even place orders in Nanjing for delivery, and the Huang fleet will deliver the goods from Manila at the Wangjiangmen wharf at the appointed time.
Merchants settle delivery orders on "Huaxia Island", and maybe the actual delivery will be completed in Beijing, thousands of miles away, and it is very likely that in Manila, thousands of miles away, the modern business model has begun to take shape.
"Huaxia Island" under the care of Zhao Rui and Zhao Shimin's brothers and sisters can be said to be unstoppable, the tax rate here is transparent and very little, Westerners and Orientals come one after another, and the free trade island deserves its name.
Foreigners bought cheap and high-quality goods in "Huaxia Island", as long as they hired "Huaxia Sea Run" to deliver goods, they could reach any port of about 3,000 miles, and it was impossible for merchants to suffer losses, because they received expensive freight "Huaxia Sea Run" package to compensate for the value of the goods.
The credit of "Huaxia Daqian Zhuang" has gradually been recognized by Ming merchants, and Huaxia Tongbao has also begun to circulate, and even Eastern and Western merchants have begun to use it.
"Huaxia Investment Firm" has successfully sold 30% of the houses in just over two months, but it is the first high-end commercial houses to be sold out, and the customers are businessmen from the south to the north.
No one thinks it's too expensive, everyone thinks it's worth the money. This is normal, the construction cost plus the low land price, the "Huaxia Investment Firm" is just on the basis of the cost price to add 60% to double the run, compared with the housing prices of later generations, it is simply a free gift.
Why are housing prices high in later generations? That's because the high price of land is the first factor, and who earns the money for the land price? The world is as black as a crow!
Many wealthy businessmen did not buy the villas they liked, so they had to use the method of ordering in advance to ensure that the middle and high-end commercial houses of the second phase of the "Huaxia Investment Firm" project had only completed the infrastructure, and half of the houses had received a deposit of 40% of the house price, which was similar to selling off-plan houses.
Zhao Rui, Bai Peony, Lan Meiniang and other board members were dumbfounded, and they remembered that the old man had said that they could buy and sell without completing the whole building. One by one, they worship the omnipotent master even more.
On November 18, a sentry horse boat arrived from Huangjiawan Island, and the black tiger, who was already a general, actually served as a messenger to chop the waves.
Huang Sheng didn't ask anything about it, and when he saw the black tiger, he scolded with a slashed face: "Black tiger, that kid still thinks you are a big-headed soldier?" It's been a long time since I beat you to itchy skin? A general actually took a sentry boat for four days and three nights, and you don't want to live? ”
The black tiger knew that he was wrong, and he also knew that the adults were worried that something would happen to him, so he said with a smile: "My lord, the military situation is urgent, and I am afraid of making a mistake!" ”
"Military situation, isn't it that Jiannu has entered the customs, and Yuan Dudu has the ability to Pingliao for five years, what do you want to worry about?"
The black tiger was stunned on the spot for a moment, and he said suspiciously: "My lord, how do you know that Jiannu has entered the customs, is it possible that you can pinch it?" ”
Huang Sheng is not able to pinch and calculate, but knows history, and knows that Jiannu will enter the army at the end of the second year of Chongzhen, but he doesn't know the specific date.
Seeing that the black tiger was in a hurry and came to "Huaxia Island", he naturally guessed that something big had happened to Daming, what else was bigger than Jiannu entering the pass?
"Don't talk nonsense, tell me why you are here, what is the situation in Beizhili, and what changes are there in the imperial court. This official is worried about Ding, and the court can't lead the troops without winning the favor! ”
Although Huang Sheng said this, he was extremely excited in his heart, he had stirred up history, but fortunately he had not completely changed history, he had been waiting for the slave chief to make a mistake, and recently he intended to let his team not fight with Jiannu in order to be proud of his soldiers.
The opportunity to wait depends on whether Houjin is as in history when the main force detours more than 2,000 miles to enter the Daming Pass, if the eight little boldness still does this, Huang Sheng's opportunity will come.
The black tiger, who came in a hurry, was not in a hurry when he saw the confident and calm face of the head of the family, and he began to talk about the cause and effect in detail.
