Chapter 231: Fanaticism
This tulou and cement road are not a secret, in fact, Li Hao is already doing it now. "These dots are tulou, if you want to see it, you can come with me to see it. I don't want to say much here, I plan to use these three cement roads and tulou to divide Quanzhou Mansion into two large blocks, and then build a few ring roads to connect these three roads. ”
After the terrain on the sand table was divided by Li Hao a few times, there were only a few small pieces left, although these businessmen did not understand military affairs, they could understand it by looking at the sand table.
After cutting in this way, because of the effect of those concrete roads and ring forts, the space of those Shanyue people will become smaller and smaller, and finally they will be squeezed into one place.
Another point is that after these cement roads are repaired, it is also a lot more convenient to go to Guangzhou or Hongzhou Tanzhou. The wide cement road carriage is much more convenient and pulls a lot of things, which is a multi-purpose purpose.
Li looked at the reactions of these merchants and felt very satisfied, he was not worried that those Shanyue people would know the news, because it was useless to know. Li Hao's use is Yangmou, the upright Yangmou, those Shanyue people don't want to be oppressed, so they have to have a decisive battle with Li Hao.
"I'm borrowing money from everyone because I'm going to build these roads. Although manpower can capture the captives of Shanyue, a lot of supplies are needed. What do you think about the seafood income from Quanzhou and Guangzhou as collateral for my side and some small businesses? ”
"We'll take this, even if Lord Li's business is at a loss, we will do it!" Without waiting for people from other places to reply, the businessmen in Tanzhou had already taken the lead in responding. This state must be responded, and it must be responded to very warmly, because Li Hao will never let the people who help him suffer.
What's more, this seafood and those small businesses that Li Hao is not very eye-catching will definitely not lose money, Li Hao's meaning is very direct, in the future, the seafood of these two prefectures will be able to do it alone, and no one else is qualified to do it, and the licensing experience must be approved by him.
And Li Hao also made it very clear that this is only part of it. This part of the business is such a big deal, so the rest of the business can be imagined, can these businessmen not respond enthusiastically? They hoped that Li Hao would not say anything at all, and then let them have a carnival.
The merchants of Guangzhou and Quanzhou were still thinking about it, and they were still surprised that Li Hao had used his strength to build such a long cement road, and their hearts were full of shock. They have already seen those cement roads in Guangzhou, which are strong, wide, and easy to walk, which in their eyes looks like it should cost a lot.
But Li Hao didn't seem to care, obviously he was fully capable of doing this. What these people don't know is that manpower is free, cement and sand are now cheaper, and it doesn't actually cost much to build such roads. What's more, this road is now occupied by the Shanyue people, which means that it doesn't cost money to build the road and occupy the area, and it is directly occupied in the past.
The businessmen in Guangzhou and Quanzhou didn't know that it was not the first time that Li Hao had done this kind of project. From Tanzhou to Yuezhou to Sichuan and Shu, these places have his way of operating like this. Li Hao and the people around him are very skilled in doing this thing.
They don't know much about Li Hao's style, but some people do. Maybe they also have to think about whether Li Hao's seafood and some small businesses can really make money, and those businessmen in Tanzhou Mansion have already gone to make a big deal.
"Hehe, it seems that everyone has gotten used to my style. The seafood business was just an appetizer, and I still have a few big businesses to do, and the money we borrowed from these businesses is not enough. Those are only available as entry qualifications, and if you want to follow me, you may have to invest more. ”
Li Hao was not interrupted by the enthusiasm of these people, how much money can be earned by those things, this Li Hao has a rough spectrum in his heart. Moreover, in the past few years, his students have also had their own opinions in this regard, and it is not difficult to give Li Hao a reasonable analysis report, so Li Hao can arrange some plans well.
"I plan to build a salt factory in Guangzhou and Quanzhou, which is the salt that has been trial-produced, and you can take a look at the quality. In the future, the salt farms in these two places will produce this kind of salt, and at least 10,000 stone of salt will be produced every day, and how much you can eat depends on everyone's ability. ”
As soon as Li Hao's words came out, all the people in the entire restaurant swallowed a mouthful of saliva. 10,000 stones per day, or the kind of fine salt as white as snow, this kind of salt has always been a high-grade salt in Datang, how much money do you have to earn?
At this time, there are roughly several kinds of salt, refined salt, coarse salt, which are divided according to quality. The salt like Li Hao took out was as white as snow and as fine as powder than the refined salt they had ever seen. As long as this salt is taken out, it is definitely very popular.
Salt may seem inconspicuous, but people can't live without it every day. And since ancient times, and further back, salt has been an important strategic material, how many dynasties have had a headache for salt, and how many people have taken risks for this thing.
On the one hand, the output of this thing in ancient times was not high, and it was not convenient to transport it from south to north, and people could not lack this thing every day, so it led to the popularity of salt. In the early Tang Dynasty, the salt works were not under official control, and in other years, this salt was a substance controlled by the government.
And Li Hao now said that these two places can at least guarantee the output of 10,000 stones per day, how much does this cost? The businessmen on the scene were almost confused. In fact, Li Hao said that the ten thousand stones still understated the output, and he really wanted to use the way he provided to produce them, and the two places combined produced 100,000 stones per day.
Generous! It's really a big deal. Such a big business was smashed, and all the people on the scene fell silent. The wealthy businessman of Quanzhou Mansion, Guangzhou Prefecture, who participated in Li Hao's night banquet for the first time, felt that the blood in his whole body rushed to his head at this moment! They're going to send it!
This is the right decision they have made in their lives, just now this salt business, can make the family property of all the people here increase dozens of times, and they seem to be just around the corner to become the top rich man in Datang, can they not be excited now?
"Calm down, in addition to this industry, there is another industry that also needs everyone's investment. This is also a huge cake, and two large shipyards will be set up in Guangzhou and Quanzhou, which will then specialize in the production of ships that can go to sea. At the same time, a large ocean-going trading firm will be formed to explore and trade with the New World. ”
Li looked around and found that the expressions on the faces of these merchants seemed to be a little confused, and they were not as fanatical as Li Hao had imagined. The merchants here have the ocean-going vessels in their hands, but they don't think they make more money than the salt works. But Li Hao said that he earned more than the salt farm, and they really didn't understand.
"This ocean-going trading house must earn more than the salt farm, and you may also get a knighthood reward because this ocean-going trading house has made a contribution to my Datang!" Li smiled and reaffirmed the role of this ocean-going trading house.
However, he will not say some details for the time being, which involves a lot of secrets, and there are bloody things. When these people really become shareholders, then they will discuss this kind of thing secretly, and then these people will be people on the same warship.
As soon as Li Hao's words fell, the people in the restaurant became excited again, because of this ocean trading house, they might even get a reward! This news makes these people more excited than making money, you must know that although the businessmen at this time are rich, but their status is not high, if they can have a chance to make meritorious service and be knighted, can they not be excited?
"General, how does this thing feel unreliable?" Zheng Tingshi has been beside him like a nerd this night. Eating a delicious wine banquet, and then watching Li Hao drive a group of businessmen to be crazy and excited. He can still understand the previous road construction, because he can also understand the strategic significance of that road.
But then Li Hao said that he used seafood and other businesses as collateral or something, which he didn't understand at all. After Li Hao took out that refined salt, he became numb. The only thing he can be sure of is that this salt is not the salt produced in Quanzhou Mansion, and the salt here is not so good!
Li Haoneng took out the best refined salt, and told all the people here that were eligible to participate, and then made a kind of ocean trade, and he could only sort out the relationship between these things one by one. Now seeing that Li Hao actually said the matter of the knighthood, he couldn't help but question.
"This is reliable! When I came, I not only got a lot of people from the hands of the imperial court, but also came to the appointment and dismissal of more than a dozen fictitious positions. Li Hao replied lightly, without these things, how dare Li Hao say in front of Li Er that Lingnan Road will be built into a place in the Guanzhong area of Fubi in ten years.
You must know that when he was in Chang'an, after Li Hao's request was made, Li Er thought about it for a few days and nights. Otherwise, Li Hao thought that Li Erhui would not agree to himself so quickly at the beginning, but Li Hao himself didn't expect that Li Erhui would agree to it all, and he promised so happily.
Now that he has arrived here, Li Hao understands that the situation on this side of Lingnan Road is already very serious. And in those places in the north, Li Er didn't dare to transfer troops at will, and Fanbang over there was ready to move, so in this situation, as long as 10,000 soldiers dared to say that Li Hao, who could pacify Lingnan, naturally became the best choice.
Counting Li Hao, Li Hao was also cheated by Li Er, because the situation on the Lingnan side was even more severe than what they told Li Hao. In this way, these things that Li Hao wants are not so important. However, Li Er regretted it now, he didn't expect those Shanyue people in Guangzhou Mansion to be defeated so easily.
The battle report from Quanzhou Mansion has also gone to Chang'an, but Li Er hasn't seen it for the time being, and he won't regret it if he sees him. The entire Lingnan Road is to be completely cleared, and the time is still early. After the east side is pacified, there is still a bunch of brutes in the west.
