Liu Chengfeng's words made everyone confused. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Commercial firm?

What is the use of a comptoir? Is there still a shortage of trading houses in this Jingshi? There are those who are so huge that they have reached into the south of the Yangtze River, and there are also those who are decent in scale, but at this time, Liu Chengfeng still wants to build a commercial bank, isn't it redundant?

Many people have doubts, it's not that they don't believe in Liu Chengfeng, it's really that there are too many commercial houses now, and now Lianzhou Hou has taken out 500,000 taels of silver to make the principal, if everyone re-invests in the shares, how big will the scale of this principal be, it's really a bit rare, what does such a large scale rely on to do business?

However, there are also those who have complete trust in Liu Chengfeng, in the eyes of these people, Liu Chengfeng is the God of Wealth, who has a relationship with him, it may not be possible to get rich, at least not at a loss, so someone said in the crowd: "Contemptible people have 10,000 taels of shares." ”

There are people who start, and some people follow and shout, this eight thousand, that five thousand, there are three thousand people in this hall, many people have an idea in their hearts, Lianzhou Hou has paid 500,000 taels and is not afraid of discounting the book, and he will give up some silver as a gentleman.

Except for some who had no spare money to turn around, the rest of the people reported their numbers one after another, and this time they were busy with two rows of lawyers sitting at the side of the case, and when these people heard that someone had reported the number, they immediately registered it, not that they would necessarily ask someone to pay, but only to roughly calculate for the time being how much silver they could attract.

Liu Chengfeng smiled at them, pressed his hand, quieted everyone down, and said loudly: "Ben Hou didn't let you buy shares now, it will take a month for this firm to be raised, let's take it step by step, you can go back and think about it first, if you think it's appropriate, it's not too late to buy shares." ”

Everyone just woke up, and couldn't help laughing, having been doing business for so long, they even forgot to know what other people's business houses were doing, so they were impatient to invest money, it was really a bit ridiculous, where in the world is there such a business?

Speaking of which, it's just because Liu Chengfeng's golden sign is too loud, and since Liu Chengfeng has become a shareholder, everyone has unconsciously followed the share, which is out of trust in Liu Chengfeng.

Someone couldn't help but ask in the crowd: "Master Hou, I don't know what kind of business this firm is doing?" ”

When Liu Chengfeng heard someone ask, he didn't sell Guanzi, and said bluntly: "Take the goods!" ”

Shipment ...... At this time, many people became nervous, and many of the people here were big businessmen who were selling goods, and now Liu Chengfeng came up with such a big commercial house, isn't it a robbery business? Does this still make people live?

Some people can't help but ask: "Master Hou, there can be some small profits in the goods, but now there are a lot of businessmen who sell the goods, even if everyone joins forces to create a big business house, they can't make a few dollars every year, and there are many money-making businesses in this world, so why take so much silver to invest in the goods." ”

This person's words made many people nod, everyone is a businessman, full of business experience, in their opinion, it is easy to make money, and there are many ways, but this goods are the most hard, although there are profits, if you take a few thousand taels of silver to invest in, this business will also be done, but it is a bit worthless to invest hundreds of thousands of millions of taels of silver to do it at once.

Liu Chengfeng smiled slightly and said: "Although the business house is taking goods, the place where it is going is different, and Benhou is going to take goods thousands of miles away. ”

Although Liu Chengfeng's words were not clear, many people had already understood something, and everyone's faces couldn't help but change.

Tens of thousands of miles, then it is Korea, Annam, and even the Tatars of the north, Nanzhang, Luzon and other countries, if it is farther away, it is said that there are Tianzhu, Dashi and other countries. Some well-informed businessmen also know that other places are fine, but Tianzhu and Da Shiguo are places full of gold, and the current Tianzhu Kingdom seems to be in power by Tartars, with hundreds of millions of people and many rich people. And the great food is even more remarkable, the great food is said to have thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, the people are rich, and the trade is also developed, and more importantly, the porcelain and silk of the Celestial Empire have always been very popular there, and a silk can be exchanged for the same weight of gold.

In fact, the Tianzhu and the Great Eclipse they are talking about are the Mughal Dynasty in India and the Ottoman Empire across the Eurasian and African continents, these two empires were once prosperous, the population is not less than the Ming Dynasty, they are the hegemon of the same side as the Ming Dynasty, the Mughal has a large population in Tianzhu, the Ottoman spans three continents, occupies the center of the entire Eurasian continent, Central Asia, West Asia, Eastern Europe, Central Europe, and North Africa are all under his jurisdiction, and their fleets have even cruised in the Mediterranean Sea at this time, dominating for a while.

In addition to these two empires, there are countless small countries in the South Seas, and there are Koreans, Wa countries, and Mongolian countries in the north.

Soon, some smart people understood Liu Chengfeng's intentions, and the reason why Liu Chengfeng wanted to build a large-scale commercial bank was indeed reasonable. In fact, the things in this world are the law of the jungle, especially the merchants who go to sea to do business, even if they are your vassal country, they still bully you, in recent years, there are many merchants who have shipped goods to North Korea and other countries, but there are not many people who can really earn back the silver, after all, people are in other places, and the vassal country also eats people and does not spit out bones.

Liu Chengfeng's meaning is very clear, to establish a super trading house, this trading house has great ability, with tens of millions of principal, those feudal countries, who would dare to bully at will? It's fine if you don't bully him.

Listening to Liu Chengfeng's words, everyone couldn't help but be silent, Liu Chengfeng's intention was obvious, the business house he wanted to build would be the first business house in the world, its scale was very large, and even a caravan traveled, the goods would be tens of thousands, and a single guard would be afraid of thousands, and a large number of silk, porcelain, and ironware would be transported thousands of miles away, so as to get gold and silver of the same value.

If so, the risk to the caravan is minimized, which is a good idea.

Someone couldn't help but ask loudly: "Master Hou, you said that you will transport the goods thousands of miles away, but I don't know if this business house is going to take the land route or the sea route?" ”

This is the problem that everyone is most concerned about, the cost of land is too high, it may be possible to go to Guanwai or North Korea, and go to Annan and Nanzhang, but if you go to Dashi and Tianzhu, you can't always take the land route, and there are Luzon, Wadao and other countries, and you can't get through without sea boats.

The person who asked this sentence is obviously an extremely shrewd old businessman, and he saw the key point at a glance, if the business can only simply go out of the customs by land, even if the value of the goods is high, the income is not big, and it takes a lot of time, and the manpower required is also a lot, only by taking the sea can he earn countless silver, and the profit is only several times and dozens of times, but the problem comes out again, it is impossible to take the sea route, the reason is very simple, the court forbids the sea, under the conditions of the forbidden sea, although some people sneak out to the sea, But there is not a single one of such a large commercial house with such fanfare. Even if Liu Chengfeng is the Marquis of Lianzhou, it is impossible to open the sea, since he can't open the sea, how can he take the sea route?

Liu Chengfeng glanced at the businessmen in the crowd who were asking, couldn't help but smile faintly, and said: "You have to go by land and sea, so naturally you have to make a profit by two-pronged approach!" ”

The sea route is also ...... Everyone couldn't help but be stunned again, is Lianzhou Hou crazy? The forbidden sea is an ancestral system, and no one has proposed to open the sea for so many years, but the final result is that they are besieged by the civil and military officials of the imperial court, which not only involves the ancestral system, but also involves intricate interests.

But there are also people who can't help but gasp, if ...... It's just that if, if Liu Chengfeng really has a way to open the sea, if this firm is really built, such a large-scale open sea trade, I am afraid that the profits earned every year are definitely not under the treasure building, as long as this firm is willing to invest, how much profit will it have?

Almost everyone was shocked in their hearts, because what Liu Chengfeng promised would change the pattern of the entire world, especially for Shangjia.

It's just that this matter is just thinking about it, whether Liu Chengfeng has this ability or not, it makes people a little suspicious, it's not that everyone doesn't believe Liu Chengfeng, it's really too sensational, if someone else says it, I'm afraid it will cause laughter, and it's just because the person who said this is Liu Chengfeng, so people don't laugh, they just have doubts.

Liu Chengfeng didn't say anything more, of course he knew that the businessmen still needed to think about the time, Liu Chengfeng smiled slightly, and said: "Anyway, the time is not in a hurry, let's consider it first, but Ben Hou's words are put here first, land and sea routes can be walked, if it doesn't work in the future, everyone has invested in the money, Ben Hou is willing to return the amount, okay, what should be said has also been said, everyone, Liu someone still has something, this Ershou Ninghou and Jianchang Bo invited Ben Hou to eat wine, so I won't accompany you!" ”

Liu Chengfeng said, came down from the high platform, separated the crowd, and walked away.

And in the treasure hall, none of the crowd dispersed, and everyone was still digesting Liu Chengfeng's words, does this guy's promise count? If you can't go by sea, you will return the silver you have invested in, but if you can really go by sea, it will be very profitable to have a lot of profits, and if you can really take shares, after three or five years, I am afraid that the value of the silver money invested in the shares will at least increase tenfold or hundredfold.

It's just that why does this Liu Chengfeng dare to guarantee that the imperial court can open the sea?

Everyone's faces couldn't help but show a little excitement, and everyone couldn't help but talk and whisper.
