Chapter 0388 - Demining
For Fils's small means, Zhou Qingfeng was very vigilant. He has always been known for his 'benevolence', and this person has brought a lot of fame and benefits to the bottom of society, at the cost of sharing more benefits.
The long-legged family is not happy to sell their property, but once it is detected, it is easy to crack such a small trick. Zhou Qingfeng found the 'rebellious' magnates represented by the old Arad, as well as several chiefs of the wizarding group, and said that they wanted to 'balance interests'.
Things are clear, the long-legged family split and sold the assets that were put together, this is a wedge between the feelings between our alliance, and I will never be fooled.
When Fils. Long Legs stuffed most of his valuable possessions into Victor. Hugo, old Arad and others have long been pale. But when they heard Zhou Qingfeng shouting 'Equal interests', they were slightly discouraged.
In the hall of the Arcane Research Society, Zhou Qingfeng called all his 'allies' over. The property sold by the Longleg family was compiled into a book and listed on the table.
"Friends, I'm Victor. Hugo is the most righteous. Everyone worked together, whoever dared to take advantage, I was the first to cut him. "Zhou Qingfeng faced the vote of 'rebellion' and chief in Cold Wind City, and the righteousness was awe-inspiring and loud.
Because of the fight with the long-legged family, one of the sons of old Arad died. If it weren't for Zhou Qingfeng's wide connections and quick opportunity, the old guy might have secretly connected again, treating him as a shameless person to launch a fire fight again.
Looking at the account books put out by Zhou Qingfeng, they were indeed all property sold by the Long-legged family, and several chiefs of the wizarding group also calmed down. Rao, the chief of plastic energy, asked: "Your Excellency Hugo, how do you want to equalize your interests?" ”
"Quite simply, we're not going to be tricked by the long-legged family. You're definitely interested in all of this, so you're free to pick and choose. I sell as much as I buy for as many gold coins. You can rest assured that there are absolutely no middlemen who make the difference. ”
Zhou Qingfeng swore by it, so he almost vouched for his head. Only Jason cowered in the ranks of the wizarding order, and when he heard Victor. Hugo's voice became higher, and he subconsciously covered his wallet.
The crowd gathered around and picked and chose through the books. They soon found out that what Zhou Qingfeng took out to sell was real estate, especially the shops in the city and the mines outside the city, which were basically there.
It's all fat. If you are a nobleman from another family, you will never spit out what you eat in your mouth, let alone spit it out. But Zhou Qingfeng not only vomited, but also vomited thoroughly.
Old Arad casually swept and immediately targeted the docks, farmsteads, and lumberyards that the long-legged family had occupied all year round. These are very good boutique properties that can bring very stable income.
Due to the low communication and transportation capacity of the other world, and the poor level of technology, the output of a piece of land and an industry will not be very large. Each family will have a large number of heirs, and if the family property is too fragmented, the family power will decline rapidly.
The solution to this problem is 'primogeniture'. But there is another way behind the scenes, which is to buy more industries. The more industries there are, the stronger the family power will naturally be, and more and stronger forces can be supported.
If it weren't for this fight, such an industry that can stabilize a family's power would never be sold. The 'rebellious' magnates were all smiling, feeling that Zhou Qingfeng was really sensible and had no intention of monopolizing.
The books also indicate the prices of all the industries, which are one or two percent of the normal selling price, which is indeed not a price increase. Zhou Qingfeng really didn't make the difference, and everyone was very happy.
Old Arad crossed the account book with his finger on the spot, "I want these properties." ”
Wilson followed Zhou Qingfeng, holding a quill in his hand. Wherever old Arad drew his finger, he registered accordingly behind him.
After picking a dozen shops and farms, the elder Arad was satisfied, and let the others pick the place in front of the open table. These inheritances could already make up for the loss of one of his sons.
With old Arad taking the lead, according to his usual status and power, these 'friends' of Zhou Qingfeng stepped forward one by one to choose the fat they liked. Everyone giggled, like a bunch of robbers sharing the spoils.
It's just that there are more monks and less porridge, and although the account books are thick, there are more 'rebels' who can share the spoils. Halfway through, there is no score. The latecomers were all little knights and wizards in the city, and when they found that they had nothing, they became restless again.
"Don't worry, this is just the property that the Longlegs family sold today, and they will still have it tomorrow. Believe me, you're all my friends, and you're sure to get something. Maybe something better will be sold tomorrow. ”
Zhou Qingfeng appeased him, and many 'rebels' didn't notice anything wrong. After all, the big pieces of fat have been divided, and I want to come to Victor. Hugo was not reluctant to give up some leftovers of cold soup.
At most, some people will mumble in their hearts - why Victor. What Hugo took out and sold was all real estate? Food, cloth and other consumables were not seen.
waited until a few big forces were dealt with, and Zhou Qingfeng threw out his true intentions, "Fils. Longleg threw thousands of his slaves to me. I can't bear to let these people be displaced, but I can't afford to resettle them.
You can rent me the property and the farmstead that Fils gave you for the time being, and buy me some rations, so that the poor slaves can have a place to live. When my own estate is built, I will take the population away. ”
The fat has already been eaten, and Zhou Qingfeng is spending money to lease and buy, and there is no reason for old Arad and others to refuse. They were already satisfied, and they didn't care about continuing to do business.
The danger of giving away slaves in vain and the separation of property collapsed.
When everyone left satisfied, Zhou Qingfeng immediately sent Wilson out and went door-to-door with the account books to implement the transaction - your master said that he bought a certain store in the city, as long as the price was discounted.
Expired transactions will be invalid, so please pay quickly.
When Wilson was leaving, Zhou Qingfeng also deliberately explained, "Remember, don't accept the platinum coins we send out as much as possible, and ask those old men for gold coins." ”
Wilson was extremely embarrassed by this, "Master, if we don't accept the platinum coins we send out, there is no guarantee of credibility." Who will dare to ask for this platinum coin in the future? It's inappropriate. ”
That's right!
At that time, Zhu Hongwu, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, issued treasure money to officials as a servant. As a result, the dead old man himself did not recognize the value of the treasure money, and only collected taxes of copper and silver. It's like a bunch of treasure money and waste paper, and it's hard to wipe your ass, and you hate it.
Zhou Qingfeng scratched his head, so he could only nod and say, "Okay, this fish can't be too much." Platinum coins and gold coins are equivalent, we all recognize. ”
Wilson took the order and left.
Zhou Qingfeng crossed his waist, and looked towards the dark night in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion, and snorted and said, "Fils, you want to make a ghost before you leave." I don't think I'll be greedy. That's not what I'm looking for. ”
