Chapter 118: Lu Fu
Sheng Xuanhuai took a sip of tea, pondered for a moment and stared at Qin Chuan again, asking a question that made Qin Chuan's heart beat even more!
"Ming Hong, you said that your gold rolls can be exchanged at your bank at any time, and you also said that the amount of your gold rolls is limited to the equivalent gold and silver quota of Aurora Bank, which means that your gold rolls are guaranteed by physical gold and silver, so isn't your gold rolls just like foreigners' banknotes, to be precise, they are almost the same as the gold and silver double standard system in the United States?"
Sheng Xuanhuai's words made Qin Chuan feel a thrill in his heart, peeking at Zhou Fu and the others, seeing that these people were also stunned by Sheng Xuanhuai's words, he couldn't help but secretly curse Sheng Xuanhuai of this ghost elf in his heart. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info
But swearing is scursing, he still has to cover up this stubble without a trace, Qin Chuan pretended to smile lightly.
"Where is the grand adult, paper money can only be called currency if it is widely circulated among the people, and my generation of gold rolls is only flowing in my Aurora Group, where can it compare to the serious currency of others."
Sheng Xuanhuai asked suspiciously, not wanting Ye Xilai's voice to come from the other side.
"Ladies and gentlemen, now the auction sales conference has officially begun."
When everyone looked up, they saw that the managers of foreign banks and foreign banks, as well as domestic merchants, who had originally advanced to Aurora Bank, had not only come out of the bank with their entourage carrying large and small bulging leather bags, but also had already sat down on the hundreds of chairs lined up on the bluestone paved road.
Judging from the seats, foreign businessmen have gathered in a bunch, and domestic merchants have naturally gathered in one place. However, if you look closely, there are clues in this, and the foreign businessmen are also separated by country, the British businessmen sit in one place, and the managers of the foreign banks in France, Germany, Russia, and Japan sit in each place.
Looking at the Chinese and foreign businessmen who were gearing up, holding the product introduction book issued to them by Aurora Group in their hands, and whispering in their ears, Sheng Xuanhuai couldn't help but say with emotion.
"Ming Hong, at the beginning you said that you were going to engage in auction sales, I didn't care, but after watching this scene today, I was really wrong, just this posture, they still have to break their heads for those things that are in demand?"
Wu Tiaoqing also sighed: "It seems that we all underestimate Ming Hong, in terms of business methods, Ming Hong can be a leader, even we veterans may not be able to compare." β
Sheng Xuanhuai nodded and asked Qin Chuan: "Ming Hong, what is the valuation in your heart for all these goods you are bidding for today?" β
Qin Chuan, who was still a little frightened by Sheng Xuanhuai's question, tried to stabilize his mind, for fear of causing something again, and thought for a moment and answered carefully.
"What has been produced in the past few months, except for canned food, has not been sold, plus the eight months from October to May next year, it is estimated that γγγγγγ I guess there are about four or fiveγγγγγγ Million. β
Before Qin Chuan's words fell, the teacup in Zhang Shiheng's hand fell to the table with a "bang", and he looked at Qin Chuan with his mouth wide open and his eyes blankly dumbfounded, and half a mouthful of tea flowed down the corners of his open mouth to his chest.
Not only Zhang Shiheng, but also Zhou Fu, Sheng Xuanhuai, Wu Tiaoqing, Li Jingfang, who have gone through the wind and rain and seen the big scene, can't help but change color in surprise.
Seeing everyone like this, Qin Chuan couldn't help but regret greatly, regretting that he shouldn't have engaged in this bidding sales, this is Lu Fu.
Qin Chuan was annoyed, feeling that Li Mingfang on the side quietly kicked himself under the table, and then he came back to his senses and hurriedly said lightly.
"After deducting raw materials, labor, and depreciation of machinery and equipment, the net profit will be much less."
Seeing that everyone still looked in disbelief, Qin Chuan smiled bitterly and said, "There are still a lot of shares in this that need money, so there are not many of them." β
Qin Chuan said this, everyone color is a little slower, you must know that several of them have shares in these factories in Qinchuan, the more Qin Chuan earns in this auction, the greater the profit they get, the only difference is that the factories in which individuals participate are different, and the dividends are different.
Wu Tiaoqing sighed and said: "Minghong, if you are valued at forty or fifty million, then looking at today's occasion, I am afraid that the sales revenue will be more than eighty million." β
Wu Tiaoqing's words shocked everyone again.
80 million, this is an astronomical value, and the interest collected by the Qing Customs in the past year was only more than 30 million taels.
Seeing everyone looking at him, Qin Chuan secretly said in his heart: "Grandma, this is still because these factories have not expanded production, in addition, there is also the reason that the workers' skills are not very skilled, if you expand production again, or open new factories, the benefits will be greater, and it will inevitably be looked down upon at that time, and now this Qing Dynasty is not a society under the rule of law, and if you don't do it, you will be hacked." At that time, it was really like what the actor surnamed Zhao said in the sketch before the time travel, "The most painful thing in the world is that the people are gone, and the money has not been spent."
Qin Chuan sighed secretly in his heart, it seems that he really has to hurry up and pull the banner as a tiger skin, and let the foreigners come in to be stable.
"Ladies and gentlemen."
Outside, Ye Xilai's voice sounded again: "Some of the Aurora Group products sold at auction today are the inventory of the past one or two months, and in addition, the output of all these factories is our estimate for a total of eight months from October to May next year. β
"The auction procedure is that all the existing inventory of goods is divided into two auctions, and thereafter the monthly output is one piece, and the bidding rules are the highest price. For the next eight months, we will produce each month, and even if there is an occasional part that exceeds today's auction volume, we will sell at the time of sale based on today's auction price. In addition, the spot must pay the full payment, and the goods in the next eight months, the bidder needs to pay a deposit of 30%. Ninety percent of the net profit from today's auction will be transferred to Aurora Bank as the full reserve for Aurora Bank's vouchers. β
The so-called bank reserves, at this time the meaning is a little different from the later generations, this time is a kind of guarantee for the issuance of paper money, as for the full reserves, that is, the amount of the issued vouchers, is equivalent to the gold and silver in the bank vault, as much gold and silver as there are as many vouchers as issued, Aurora Bank's voucher rolls, is equivalent to gold and silver. In other words, Ye Xilai is telling people that the voucher of Aurora Bank is absolutely insured, so you can use it with confidence.
Because of Sheng Xuanhuai's questioning, Qin Chuan now regrets instructing Ye Xi to say these naked words, and he can't wait to run over and cover Ye Xilai's mouth. Peeking at Sheng Xuanhuai and the others, he was secretly relieved to see that these people were all engrossed in watching Ye Xi come to preside over the auction, and no one looked at him again.
"Now that the auction is open, the first target is the Chunyang brand cigarettes produced by our Aurora Group cigarette factory, with an inventory of 20,000 boxes and a monthly output of 10,000 boxes."
Ye Xilai stood behind the table, holding a whole cigarette coated with tung oil on red cardboard in one hand, and a single box of brightly colored cigarettes with patterns painted on it in the other, and said loudly.
"What cigarettes are, I don't need to tell you all know them, but where did this tobacco first grow? What is the ancient name? Regardless of the Chinese and foreign people, I am afraid that you may not know. β
"Tobacco, in ancient times, was called nine-leaf cloud vanilla, acacia grass, also known as soul rejuvenation grass, also known as forgetting worries grass."
"Let's talk about the origin of this tobacco, it is said that this tobacco originated in South America and was introduced to China, don't you know that it has long existed in our Huaxia Shenzhou."

A tall and lanky foreigner said loudly in his seat in somewhat broken Chinese: "Tobacco was brought back to Europe from America by Christopher Columbus when he discovered the New World, and then introduced to your Qing Dynasty. β
