Chapter 512: Get on and off the boat
"The world is so big, don't you just want to earn money in Guangdong?"
At the end, Jia Rudao looked around and said slowly.
The gentry in the hall were thoughtful.
This is the reason, but the cooperation ...... How to cooperate? Who has the final say?
And the most important thing is, is it okay to talk about the expansion of Guangzhou Port now? Why is it involved in cooperation again? And to put it simply, Guangzhou Port still has to be handed over to the four Lin'an to build.
"This official is willing to take a line in the middle this time, and I am happy to see you cooperate with a few companies in Lin'an, so that it is beneficial to Guangdong's commerce and trade prosperity or to my Great Song Dynasty, of course, this cooperation is not just a matter of words, if you are interested, you can discuss with a few companies in Lin'an, this matter has been mentioned to them, but those few are extremely willing."
Hearing Jia Yidao's words, everyone in the hall understood that this lord had already calculated everything to make it like this.
It's just that if this young feudal official can make peace so hard, then this one must also have something to ask for, but what is this asking for?
"My lord, this is the expansion of Guangzhou Port...... I wonder what agreement the Guangzhou government has reached with you? I don't know if the grass people and others can know. ”
Dai Zhenbai thought about it, wanted to get up, and asked again.
"This is all handled by the Guangzhou government, and it is not a secret, so let the official say it."
Jia Rudao glanced at Ding Daquan, Ding Daquan understood, and took over with a cough;
"Guangzhou Port is not just an expansion, here is a drawing, you can circulate it, Guangzhou Port will be divided into the old and new ports in the future, in order not to affect the Guangzhou sea trade, the new port will be ten miles downstream of the current Guangzhou Port, re-dredging the river to level the land to build, today's Guangzhou Port is mainly used as idle, small merchant ships after the completion of the new port, and has warehouses and shops, the new port is mainly to receive maritime trade merchant ships, and at the same time between the old port and the new port, will build another fishing port, mainly for the people of Guangdong to go to sea for fishing."
Ding Daquan said and gestured the drawings in his hand to his relatives and sent them to the gentry below to circulate.
"All the expenses should be more than two million taels of silver, and the silver required is provided by the four, after the completion of the port of Guangzhou, the four will each have a share of the profit of the port of Guangzhou, and the remaining sixty percent belongs to the yamen of the general department of the city. At the same time, the four also have their own wharves in Guangzhou Port, and some of the shops and warehouses will belong to the four, which is the agreement reached between the Guangzhou government and the four. ”
When the gentry heard Ding Daquan's words, they were in an uproar.
Such favorable conditions!
Ding Daquan's words have revealed a lot of meaning, obviously the future of Guangzhou Port is afraid that there will be eating, drinking and having fun, just look at the drawings, there are special shop areas marked above, there are also warehouse areas, and those shops and warehouses obviously will only belong to the Guangzhou government, if you want to buy and lease shops, the use of warehouses is also to lease and buy.
It is conceivable that with the expansion of Guangzhou Port, there will be more merchant ships coming to Guangzhou Port, and Guangzhou Port will definitely be a place where every inch of land is valuable, how much silver should those shops and warehouses be worth? Even if you don't use it, you just sublease it to others, and don't you have a lot of money in your account every year?
Not to mention that the four will have their own docks, which is truly a symbol of strength and status.
Is such a good thing to be missed in vain?
The eyes of the gentry were fixed on Wang Yurong, Xing Dongzhe, Zhang Ping'an and Dai Zhenbai at the same time.
No matter what, the four families are still representatives of the gentry clans in Guangdong, aren't they?
Wang Yurong, Zhang Ping'an, Dai Zhenbai and Xing Dongzhe are also full of helplessness at the moment.
The young feudal official of the family had already calculated everything very clearly, and it was a shame that he and the others thought that this person would be the same as the previous pacification envoys, waiting for the pacification envoys to come to the dock. With the support of those giant businessmen in Lin'an, what can these gentry in Guangdong be considered to have a little bit of wealth?
"My lord, please forgive me and serve the country."
Xing Dongzhe couldn't find anything else to use to impress Jia Rudao, so he had to bow down and bow deeply.
"Please do it, sir."
Wang Yurong didn't stand up at this time, and took the lead in getting up and begging.
"Please do it, sir."
All the gentry stood up and bowed in unison.
That's a bit of a bummer.
In addition to this method, these gentry in Guangdong have no cards to play.
Wang Yurong, Xing Dongzhe and others knew very well that if they could not win an opportunity for the clans in Guangdong to intervene in the expansion of Guangzhou Port this time, the prestige of the four clans in Guangdong would be greatly damaged. After all, it is precisely because of the four families holding the shelf that today's thing has happened.
If the four families could take the initiative to ask to see Jia Nidao, maybe the expansion of Guangzhou Port would not have been as important as the Lin'an family.
The cause of the past is the result of today.
"You're interested in the shops, warehouses, and docks in the new port, right?"
Jia Rudao smiled and said softly.
There was an unwarranted heat on the faces of the gentry in the hall.
"Although some words are not good, the official still likes to say them in advance. In addition to the benefits of Guangzhou Port, there are still many things to do in the future of the Guangzhou Government and the pacification embassy, and there are still many places that need to be built and expanded, and not everything will be beneficial, do you understand? Have you thought about it? ”
Jia Rudao flicked the table and said in a positive voice.
The implication was already clear, and he believed that these people would understand.
Guangzhou Port is good, there are benefits, you just cry and shout and even play scoundrels to intervene, okay, this is nothing, Guangzhou Port I can promise you to intervene. But in the future, there are still many things that need to be done with money, maybe it will not be beneficial, will you shrink at that time?
If there is good, try every possible way to insert a foot, and if there is no benefit, retract it, how can there be such a good thing in this world?
If you want to insert a foot in the port of Guangzhou, you can, but after inserting this foot, if the government still needs it in the future, and it is still a thing that is not beneficial, if you don't see that there is no benefit, then it will not be so simple.
This is not Jia Nidao's condition, but Jia Nidao's premise that he can promise them to intervene in the expansion of Guangzhou Port.
Only by agreeing to this premise can you be qualified to talk to him about the rest.
All the gentry in the hall are not fools, so they can naturally hear the meaning of Jia Yidao's words.
Sure enough, hearing Jia Rudao say this, the gentry in the hall suddenly became dumbfounded.
Dare to love, this is not a one-shot deal?
After making this order, you are on the ship, and you can't get off the boat in the future? In the future, you can only follow the back of the government to be a cow and a horse?
