-----------------------------------

Following Zhou Yanru, a group of staff members also put forward their own opinions. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoThey can sit here as the brains of Shousuke-sama, and of course they are not incompetent. When it comes to the economy on weekdays, most of them have made some achievements. It's just that this time, in front of the series of actions shown by Wang Pu, one by one they only felt dazzled, and their ideas were naturally varied.

So soon, someone took it for granted:

"With the shrewdness and cunning of Shorthair, they would agree to such a clause? Are these people all confused? ”

"No, no, in fact, Shorthair doesn't suffer at all - that's what students don't understand the most."

The first staff member who had gone to Tianjin to inspect put down the records about the imperial court and took out another stack - all about the income part of the short hair, which looked thicker than the imperial court's.

Helping his forehead, he had just taken out the thick glasses from Mingguangtang, licking his fingers on his tongue, twisting the paper, and the staff member began to say carefully:

"First of all, about the 500,000 taels themselves -- according to the students' private inquiries, when Wang Jieshan signed these two agreements, the shop of Qionghai Bank in Tianjin Mansion had just opened, and there was no 500,000 taels of silver in the treasury at all. Shorthair did bring a lot of silver coins from the south, but they were all sent directly to the Jingshi side for use in Qiongshifang. It did not survive in Tianjin. This time it was because the Zheng family followed their fleet north, and they made a lot of money selling salt goods along the way, and after arriving in Tianjin, they deposited a part of the silver in their bank, which was the largest income after the opening of their 'Tianjin Branch of Qionghai Bank', but the total amount was only 300,000. ”

"Then they dare to lend Wang Jieshan 500,000?"

Another staff member next to him was stunned, and the glasses brother in front nodded:

"Why not? Wang Jieshan actually only signed two agreements, but he didn't take a penny from Shorthair at all. The silver only walked around the books for a while, and then it was back in the hands of Shorthair—the bank still had 300,000 deposits to use, and the daily flow was not affected at all. ”

"According to this, even if Wang Jieshan borrows one million or two million, it's just a book trick anyway."

Another staff member next to him sneered, and the glasses brother laughed:

"Indeed, when the student talked to Wang Jieshan about this, he said that the loan amount given to him by the short hair side was indeed as high as one million taels at the beginning, and they promised the same conditions as now, but Wang Jieshan refused."

"Why refuse? Anyway, you don't have to pay it back yourself! ”

This time, even Zhou Yanru couldn't help but interject, and the staff member arched his hand towards the boss, and said with a smile:

Dong Weng's words were the same as those of the students at the time. But after Wang Jieshan carefully calculated an account for the students, he knew the mystery of this...... Dong Weng, it's not that the students are arrogant, but after seeing other people's short-haired behavior, I know that I have been governing in the past, and I am really ...... It's a little rougher. ”

This staff member probably used to be a storyteller, and he actually sold a pass at this critical moment, unhurriedly dusting off his clothes and drinking tea, until Zhou Yanru was about to squint at him, and then continued:

"If you want to talk about the amount of borrowing, it is not arbitrary. Wang Jieshan had an account book given by Short Hair, which was about the purpose of this loan. Because it was too cumbersome, the students did not transcribe it. But Wang Jieshan pointed out to the students at that time, which money should be spent and where it should be spent, all of which were pre-delineated. Add up the total number of items, and there are 500,000 and 1 million. ”

Hearing this, Zhou Yanru bowed his head slightly and said with a smile:

"Indeed, the short-haired act, and always love to stand in words, and boil down to books...... That book of accounts of the salt company still gives Bi Jingzeng a headache...... Hehe. ”

Seeing that he made a gesture to continue, the staff member said:

"If you want to say that this million loans, more than 500,000 yuan, where will they be used -- or in the military port. In fact, according to the complete drawings given by Qiongzhen, the military port needs far more than just a few docks, barracks, etc., these are just the most basic things, which can be placed by the military fleet. However, the military ships have been adrift at sea for many years, and they have to return to the port every once in a while for repair and maintenance...... These require repairs in the port. A repair yard with a dry dock is indispensable. ”

Speaking of which, the staff member had to take some effort to explain to everyone present what a dry dock is, and why this thing is indispensable in the military port--probably because Wang Pu had only talked to him about it before, and it was quite concise at the moment.

However, there are still people who say it is difficult to understand:

"Isn't it just a big pit that can repair the bottom of the ship, just recruit more people to dig it, where can you use more than 100,000 taels of silver?"

-- The short-haired offer of a dry dock costs more than 100,000 taels of silver, which is very incomprehensible to the staff and gentlemen who have always sat in the study and talked about the ancient and modern wars in front of the paper books. But Zhou Yanru didn't say anything, after all, as the first assistant of the empire, his concept of war is always more profound than those who don't go out to show.

"In addition, among the sailors, especially firearms, the guns equipped on the ships, the guns used by the sailors, and the ammunition and pellets used by the sailors and soldiers, all of which require the ability to repair and replenish in the port, so the establishment of a military port must also require the equipment of a gunpowder bureau, a repair station, and even a sail suit, carpenter, ironworker, wounded and sick and other ancillary institutions...... These are all the most expensive money, plus the ship repair yard, the budget of 500,000 taels is only a small amount. ”

When these words came out, everyone in the room looked at each other, and after a long while, Fang heard Zhou Yanru ask indifferently:

"Wang Jieshan cut all of these?"

"Yes, he thinks that the Jinmen Sailor is a start-up, and he can't use so many facilities, so he can meet the basic needs of being able to moor and station."

"Then if the sailor has these needs in the future, how to solve them? If you are so conservative, will you not be mistaken to the country! ”

Someone next to him immediately jumped out and shouted, in fact, it was not aimed at Wang Pu, it was just the habit of officialdom, and it was really uncomfortable not to give the other party a hat when he encountered such a good opportunity.

But since Wang Pu dared to do this, he obviously had a plan, and he only heard the glasses staff member smile with a tone of "I knew it was like this":

Regarding this aspect, Wang Jieshan has also considered it. In the future, if the sailors had such needs, they would only need to go to Shandong nearby and borrow the port facilities of the Qiong Navy -- their Weihai Weijun Port is fully equipped and can meet any requirements. ”

This sentence once again caused a round of wide-eyed stares in the room, and everyone present, including Zhou Yanru, felt that it would not be a good thing for the imperial court sailors to rely on shorthair to such an extent. But thinking about the current situation, even the sailor himself is almost a gift from shorthair, so it doesn't seem to be pretentious.

"Having said that, I always feel a little unwilling to give up the 500,000 taels that short-haired white gave up."

Another staff member sighed, but Mr. Glasses shook his head again:

"No, this money actually has to be paid by the court itself."

"How so? Didn't Shorthair promise to support the bottom? ”

"Shorthair promised to support the bottom on the premise that the port income could not be repaid. But in fact, since the opening of the port of Tianjin, the growth of incoming and outgoing goods has been extremely fast. The trading company undertook the first month's loan for the Tianjin government, but by the second month it was already receiving profit dividends. It's about 3,000 taels, so when the second installment of the loan is repaid, the short hair only bears half of it. It is estimated that by next month, it will all be deducted from the imperial court dividends. In this way, the trading company actually only helped the imperial court bear more than 10,000 yuan, and the rest was all repaid with the imperial court's own silver. Short hair can still earn more than 300,000 yuan in the imperial court. ”

"Tianjin has just opened its port and can make money like this?"

Zhou Yanru's eyes narrowed slightly, and he seemed to be a little careless, but the staff around him who were familiar with him all knew that the boss was moved.

"It is mainly the trading companies themselves that have the most goods - they now have a fleet of ships docked at the port almost every month to transport a large number of commercial goods to the Jingshi. Recently, the merchants in Tongzhou and Linqing have also begun to accumulate in Jinmen, and the scale will definitely get bigger and bigger. ”

"Does Shorthair's own cargo also have to pay to the port?"

"They are divided into several different departments, everything is in accordance with the rules between each other, the current accounts are clearly remembered, and the Tianjin government can send people to check at any time, which is really admirable."

found that something was off topic, and the staff member hurriedly pulled the topic back again:

Therefore, if Wang Jieshan borrows 1 million, he will have to repay a total of more than 1.7 million yuan with interest at maturity, and the monthly repayment is 12,000, which may be able to take advantage of the short hair for a few months, but the extra hundreds of thousands of interest will definitely go from the imperial court dividends in the end. And Wang Jieshan's worries don't stop there......"

As he spoke, he picked up the information in front of him again, and motioned to Zhou Yanru and the others:

"Barracks, docks, forts, fortresses, etc., can be used as long as they are built. But the armory, the ship repair yard, the clothing factory, etc., not only to build a good house, but also to recruit manpower, prepare materials, and usually spend a steady stream of money to maintain it. If you start building these now, in addition to increasing the interest on the arrears, you will have to spend a lot of money every month to support people, and the difference between this one and the other will be big. ”

Therefore, Wang Jieshan asked the short-haired side to make plans to treat all these departments that need to be spent money as the 'second phase of the project', and put them aside for the time being. When the Jinmen Sailor reaches the scale in the future, the income of the imperial court will also be able to support it, and it is not too late to consider these. (To be continued.) )
