Chapter 90: The Power of the Good Wealth Boy

Fang Xuanling and the eldest grandson Wuji Wei Zheng and others looked at this simple transaction contract and fell into contemplation for a long time, the Tang Dynasty is short of gold and silver, most of these valuables are in the hands of the deep-rooted scholar class, so the main currency circulating on the market is copper money, copper money has a bad place, once the amount is large, it is not easy to carry, this is also the reason why the ancients and nobles brought a few entourages on the street, at least you have to have a special person to move money, the money has always been a thousand copper coins, just take a few times, it is a weight of dozens of catties, If it is a large amount of money from the government, it needs a large number of oxen, horses, and guards, so the cost of every time the money is poured is very high, which is a problem that the management of Datang has always wanted to solve and has not solved.

This kind of contract Jiaozi is the predecessor of the popular silver ticket Jiaozi after the Ming Dynasty, before there is no network money all over the country, it is very difficult to issue silver tickets, only the real implementation of the ticket to the ticket can completely get rid of the trouble of money handling, and the small amount of currency in circulation has to rise to the three categories of gold, silver and copper, so that it can make it more convenient for people to spend up, as a large business, Yanglin naturally hopes to see a free consumption market, so it is imperative to promote the transformation of the transaction contract to the silver ticket Jiaozi, As long as Datang has a certain economic foundation, the official bank ticket number can be done first.

It was impossible for a few elders to figure out this problem for a while, watching Li Lizhi eat sweet potatoes in a big gulp, and some other officials who had fields in their families also began to buy sweet potato grain seeds, Li Er and the eldest grandson probably understood the reason why Yanglin played a trick of giving sweet potatoes on the spot, and had fragrant roasted sweet potatoes to seduce people's appetite. The status of this crop in people's hearts will naturally soar, remember what Yang Lin said. Although the yield of sweet potatoes is large, the disadvantage is that it is expensive to grow. It should not be used as a staple food, it can be a variety in disaster years, but it is not suitable for a variety in harvest years, after hearing a fart sound of "porphyry" in Wang Erxuan's crotch, everyone evacuated the sweet potato stall and looked at the corn stall, this is the power of the sweet potato ventilation function.

Li Lizhi, who finished eating a sweet potato, reached out to Li Er to ask for corn again, this baby has a small belly, and there are a lot of things that can be loaded. Xue Wanche, who pretended to be a local tyrant, had to go to the scribe official again to get a ten-pound corn and grain seed trading contract, three hundred yuan was Xue Wanche's first-class marquis's income for almost a year, and the duke's annual income was only about five hundred, thinking that the girl in his arms was Yanglin's daughter-in-law, Li Er felt that these two people were too good at making business for their own family.

The manager of the corn stall is Wang Ertie's daughter-in-law Zhang Xiaoxiao, she has been an imperial cook in the palace for a few days, and she has the honor to serve the emperor and queen for dinner, so she did not drive people away arrogantly like Wang Erxuan, but gave a pot of cooked corn with leaves to the emperor's family and several elders. The emperor asked her why, and she replied with a smile: "The little fairy restricts the sale of corn for a maximum of three thousand catties, and now it has been sold out, and these pots of corn are boiled to seduce people's appetites." Whoever looks good on the eye will give one to taste. ”

Hearing this, Li Chengqian, Li Ke and other princes were happy, and they didn't care about the hot water dripping from the corn leaves, and each of them stuffed two into their sleeves. It wasn't until Zhang Xiaoxiao judged them to be unpleasant people that they refused to stop.

"Xiao Linzi said that businessmen are the smartest people in the world. They always choose the right project to invest in, and corn is a real crop that can be used as a staple food. Even if the grain is twice as expensive as the sweet potato, it was sold out by them in a very short time. The eldest grandson said as he nibbled on corn. Thinking of the first time the husband and wife ate corn together, she couldn't help but smile again.

"Yes! At first, I thought that the seeds of sweet potatoes and corn should be controlled by me, and I opened the royal fertile land to cultivate, but now that I think about it, only merchants like Tongguò can quickly spread these crops all over the world. Li Er has no ability to resist sweets, and he has no ability to resist the good daughter in his arms, happily watching Li Lizhi eat the corn all over his face, and leave the one in his hand to her, Li Lizhi, who is gradually about to eat, stretched out the messy corn in his hand to his mouth, and he also took a bite and praised it.

"If you want to say that his method is good, it is a good one, and it can bring him a lot of income, but if he doesn't prohibit Hu people and foreign envoys and merchant groups from buying grain, the concubines can't figure it out." The personnel exchanges in Chang'an City were complicated, even after the Weishui War, there were Hu and foreigners who accounted for nearly half of the total population in the city, and the eldest grandson saw a lot of them at the scene, all of them carrying large bags of money around the scribe officials and waiting for the ticket to be issued.

"Hehe, in Xiao Linzi's eyes, what foreigners are there? Those who can come to our Datang are all Datang people, just to see when they surrender to my Datang. Li Er said with arrogance, and his smile was even more arrogant, which was the idea he had after looking at the map of Asia in the middle of the night.

Li Er's laughter and speech made the accompanying civil and military ministers also arrogant in their chests, and then remembered that day when the princes were arguing with the territory map above the court, how ridiculous the situation of the border line was, this map was originally called the Tang Dynasty territory map! The area on the picture should be all my Tang territory, and the forces of other countries are just ethnic minorities who are temporarily unwilling to submit.

After looking at the two grain stalls, the next thing is to the daily necessities stall, which is already a key area for merchants and wealthy people to gather, if it weren't for the public, some merchants even want to experience the comfort of soap bathing on the spot.

"Your Majesty, the Empress, and the ministers." The emperor has a decree to avoid kneeling, as half of the host Wang Shouren also just bowed, now he has become the vice chairman of the disaster relief committee, Fang Xuanling's adjutant, and can be regarded as a person who can often see the emperor, most of the dreamlike life makes him stubbornly think that it is the little fairy Yang Lin who makes the wisdom in his body open, in fact, once people experience the fun of using their brains to find ways to solve problems, they will habitually use their brains to do everything, so that everything will become much simpler, Wang Shouren is a capable official in Fang Xuanling's opinion, It's just that it was buried in the countryside earlier.

"You're welcome, and don't bother those who want to buy, just take a look at it from a distance." Li Er raised his hand holding a boiled corn cob and exempted Wang Shouren from salutation.

"Your Majesty, Wechen is the chairman of the Commodity Exhibition Management Committee appointed by the horse, and there are some problems with the stalls here, so Wechen came over to mediate." Wang Shouren waved his hand, and the monkey army guards behind him naturally had to give Li Er a line of sight, there were too many people, it was impossible to walk over, so he could only give way in his sight.

"What's the situation?" Li Er looked at Wang Shouren, who was smiling with a smile on his face, and asked in surprise, he was still smiling when the situation happened, could it be that this person was a heartless fool?

"Your Majesty, that's right, before the construction of the East Tenth Factory was fully completed, the expected amount of goods produced was very limited, and now the expanded personnel may not be able to put into production so quickly, so the quantity of pre-sold goods is not very high, and these merchants from Chang'an and other provinces are fighting for the right to buy these limited goods. That is to say, they want to buy, it depends on whether we sell or not, how much to sell, once we take the order, we must ensure that the goods can be shipped, the merchants who placed the order in advance have now nearly doubled the original transaction price, and other merchants who know the product information later are trying to get a share in their hands, so the dispute started. The more Wang Shouren explained, the stronger the smile on his face, when Yanglin asked the people of Wangjia Village to tinker with these things, everyone didn't understand why, and now they know that these things are really valuable things.

"What did they sell, and how much did they sell?" The first thing that came to the mind after hearing this was that these goods were probably in short supply like the clothes she sold, and if Yanglin produced a large number of fashion stores like this, then the eldest grandson would not dare to imagine the feeling of being wrapped in a sea of gold and silver.

In fact, Wang Shouren replied and explained: "There are 30 kinds of daily necessities, take the better toothbrushes and toothpaste, for example, 500,000 pieces have been ordered, 100,000 yuan, 400,000 pieces of soap have also been ordered, 80,000 yuan, and the rest such as lipstick, alabaster, facial cleanser, in addition to the orders of 300,000 pieces of each piece have been snapped up, the merchants have even raised the price, and the idea of producing goods next summer has been raised."

"Hundreds of thousands? How much per piece? How much money do you get in total? The eldest grandson's eyes glowed with green hair, and he stared at Wang Shouren in a daze and asked.

Wang Shouren replied quickly: "According to the size, toothbrushes and toothpaste are twenty-four, soap is twelve, the highest price of unpopular perfume, directly in bottles, also signed out 20,000 bottles of orders, 200,000 yuan, Weichen estimates that the total value of orders for daily necessities is 2 million yuan, if the horse decides to increase the receipt, it can rise to 3 million yuan." ”

No matter how terrifying the eldest grandson's expression was, Wang Shouren couldn't help the smile on his face, half an hour after these businessmen entered the market, he had been trying hard to control himself from laughing, and his words directly made the eldest grandson feel a little dizzy.

"Guanyin, Guanyin"

Li Er shouted twice in a row before the eldest grandson came back to his senses, and as for the civil officials who couldn't help it, they rushed to the position of the scribe official at a rabbit-like speed in an attempt to confirm the authenticity of this matter.

"Your Majesty, the concubine is fine, it's just that she was shocked by this money." The eldest grandson said bluntly.

"Oh, yes! Even I was a little surprised, but now I don't have to worry about the wages of these people next year. Li Er laughed.

"Your Majesty, it's terrible, it's terrible, Weichen and a few people checked the total amount of orders in the hands of the scribe, thirteen million guan, thirteen million guan, and it's still increasing." Wei Zheng shouted.

The loyal and honest Wei Zheng naturally couldn't lie, the eldest grandson who heard the news was really dizzy, and even Li Er was a little dizzy, and they finally had a solid understanding of the power of the good money boy. (To be continued......)
