Volume III-3 Return to the Capital (II) (I)
Return to the Capital (II) (Part I)
Ruan Qianye is a man of action, so his subordinates are also very fast, relieving Jin Jiu of the soft scripture powder and other poisons, and bringing her and Ruan Qianye a sumptuous banquet. Jin Jiu began to eat without any scruples, it had been seven or eight hours since she had been drugged and tied up here, and she was already so hungry that she was close to her back.
Jin Jiu ate quickly, although fast, still elegant, since he was a child, the royal training is still very useful. Ruan Qianye didn't move a few chopsticks, he looked at Jin Jiu, and the worry in his heart slowly rose again. Can a woman younger than him, after being kidnapped and threatened, be so calm that she will be able to fully control her in the future? But that sentence is very true, the businessman is profitable, and since she is willing to talk about business, it is a good start. Maybe after a woman has no chastity and no hope for a good marriage, business is the best sustenance.
Jin Jiu was full, took a cup of tea next to him and drank it, poured another cup himself, two cups of tea, refreshed, and looked at Ruan Qianye with a smile: "Since the prince of Nanyue wants to talk about business with Jin Jiu, Shu Jin Jiu is a businessman, I want to ask some things clearly, explain clearly, and explain all kinds of conditions clearly, and everyone will have fewer contradictions and suspicions in the future, what does your prince think?" ”
"My cousin has really been in the mall for many years."
"First of all, Jin Jiu wants to ask, does the prince want to run Jin Ji by himself in the future, or will Jin Ji still be in full power by Jin Jiu?"
"Naturally, it's my cousin's full power. Although the country of Nanyue is not big, but the government affairs of a country are also very complicated, how can this prince have time to run a business, not to mention that my cousin is very talented in business, so I don't have to go to the blister. ”
"Well, the ugly words are in front, since Jin Ji is my full power, you can't put people in it, otherwise if I find out, we won't talk about it."
"Don't worry, cousin, don't be suspicious."
Jin Jiu nodded with satisfaction: "Every year, Jin Ji needs to allocate 10% of the net profit for reserves, in case of accidents. This reserve fund cannot be touched in any way, except for the emergency use of Jin Ji itself. ”
"This one does."
"Twenty percent of the net profit is used to expand the business of Jinji, and if you want Jinji to fill the world, this figure cannot be moved within ten years. Only when the gold is all over the world, our manpower and material resources will be all over the world. ”
"Twenty percent of the net profit is the dividend of shareholders, which is the credit of Jinji."
Ruan Qianye frowned, and half of this uproar was gone, but thinking that business needs credit, he nodded.
"Pure profit is a reward for shopkeepers everywhere, if you want to keep people, especially capable people, it's useless to just say it. The more we can spread out, the heavier our dependence on our subordinates, we can only rely on all the shopkeepers' strength, and we will be motivated as a whole. ”
Ruan Qianye couldn't let go of his brows, but this one really couldn't be bypassed, so he could only admit it.
"There is also half of the annual seal for the Jin family, since the prince calls me cousin, we can't ignore the Jin family."
Ruan Qianye nodded helplessly again.
"There is also half of the supply for several academies and temples in Jiangnan, if it is broken, it will inevitably damage the reputation of Jin Ji outside, if someone wants to trace the source, I am afraid that it will bring the prince to the back."
Ruan Qianye had to sigh, he and Concubine Jin had never counted the annual income of the Golden Record, and never counted these. But it has to be said that this distribution is justified. And is the funded Jiangnan Academy beneficial to his future? Ruan Qianye looked at Jin Jiu: "This matter of funding the academy is like this from the ancestors, or from which ancestor did it start?" ”
"Neither," Jin Jiu raised his eyebrows, and filled his teacup with water again: "It was three years ago that the third brother of the Tang family inspired me, and I followed him to do it." It's just that Jinji's business revenue is far less than that of Yuehuaxuan, so there are not many sponsors. ”
"Third brother of the Tang family?"
"It's the third young man of the Tang Sect, Tang Xinjie. My mother and Tangmen's aunt and grandmother are handkerchiefs. In fact, Ruan Qianye already knew that Jin Jiu deliberately told him that he didn't know.
"My cousin seems to have a lot of contact with Tang Sanshao."
"Because of the entrustment of the Tang family's aunt and grandmother, the third brother has helped me a lot over the years, that is, many large businesses were given to Jin Ji by his Yuehuaxuan."
"It seems that Tang Sanshao is a person who values love and righteousness."
"The third brother is indeed very affectionate, of course, he is also a businessman, so 20% of the net profit of Jin Ji is donated to Baihuatang every year, and Baihuatang rescues the elderly, weak, women and children in various parts of the Great Zhou every year."
"Twenty percent? Isn't that a little too much?! ”
"It sounds like a lot, but in fact, Jin Kee takes advantage of it, because in many places, Jin Kee uses Baihuatang's land for nothing, or buys Baihuatang's finest liquor raw materials at a reasonable price. If we really rent land and purchase it from other places, we are afraid that it will cost three or four percent more. ”
"Oh," Ruan Qianye seemed a little absent-minded, "so that there will be little net profit left in Jinji every year." ”
"It's really not much, and one percent of the net profit is at my discretion as the chief treasurer."
"Then what is my cousin going to use as the basis for continuing to talk to me?"
"Of course."
"Hehe..." Ruan Qianye just laughed dryly: "One percent of the net profit, 100,000 taels a year?" "This amount of money is really not enough for him, a prince of South Vietnam, to take care of it personally.
"Jin Jiu wants to ask the prince a few questions."
"You say."
"If the crown prince needs to install people in the ten prosperous wharves and towns of the Great Zhou, even if there are twenty people in each town and two hundred people in ten towns, not only do these people have to pay for food, clothing, housing and transportation, but also they also need to have a decent livelihood on the surface, even if one person is two hundred taels a year, ten people are two thousand taels, one hundred people are twenty thousand taels, and twenty people are forty thousand taels, dare to ask His Royal Highness the Prince, if you count the prosperous towns in South Vietnam, the Great Zhou is only relying on the towns near the border of the Great Zhou, how much can the prince spend in a year? Can you find a suitable, unquestionable livelihood for all of these people? The prince has cooperated with the Great River Gang for many years, and how much profit has he given to the Great River Gang every year? How much to tip? If another big river gang comes and only talks to you about profits and helps you do things, and instead of handing over the silver, he will take a reward from you, how much silver does the prince need to prepare in a year? ”
Ruan Qianye had to nod helplessly, and let the Dahe Gang know a lot of secret things for him, whether it was in Nanyue or Da Zhou, the Dahe Gang was still quite effective at present. It's convenient to use, but the cost is really high every year. "Jin Ji does not need to be invested by outsiders, and its own profitability and the treasurers and associates around the world are very effective. Judging from this account, it's no better than the prince's reward to the Big River Gang, isn't it? Moreover, for the sake of the Great River Gang, the prince privately ceded some of the river fees and other benefits that should have been collected by the South Vietnamese State to the Great River Gang, how high is the cost of the risk taken by the prince? ”
Ruan Qianye looked at Jin Jiu in surprise, how did she know about this kind of confidential matter? In an instant, Ruan Qianye had the idea of killing people, no matter how rich Jin Ji was, Jin Jiu knew so much, and it was a threat to him before he ascended to the throne.
"The prince doesn't have to be so surprised, and he doesn't have to think of killing me. What Jin Jiu can see, many people may be able to see it, but when the time comes, I am afraid that the prince will become more and more black. ”
"Where did my cousin go," Ruan Qianye quickly came back to his senses: "How could I do that." Since this palace has chosen you to be the woman of this palace, there are some things that should have been known to you. In this way, we can be honest with each other, so that we can cooperate sincerely. ”
Jin Jiu smiled and didn't take the topic, but said directly: "The prince of Nanyue last year, not counting the benefits on the river, only counting the reward you gave was more than 140,000 taels. ”
"How do you know?!"
"Because of what happened back then, I had a grudge against the Big River Gang, so I kept an eye on them."
"Does that mean that you know every move of the River?"
"So to speak!" Jin Jiu replied with a faint smile.
"If you know everything, how could you be kidnapped by them?" Ruan Qianye smiled contemptuously, "I also have to choose a more skillful cover-up."
"Why should I be deceived by you, and what good is it for me to lie to you?"
"Aren't businessmen always thinking about all kinds of business methods? Since you are the one who cheated me, what do you want from me? I was moved, let you and Jin Ji go? ”
"What do you get, I think that's what I want to ask the prince."
"The money and the money you just said are recorded in the manpower and material resources of various places, but remember that I will not reward the money like the Great River Gang. I've already said that, now you can tell me, did you know in advance that the River Gang was going to do something to you? ”
"As you wish, the answer is 'yes'" Jin Jiu smiled wickedly: "If they don't kidnap me, how do I know why the Great River Gang is not afraid of me seeking revenge, but often sends people to follow me, and even secretly wants to attack me?" ”
"So you're doing this to find the people behind the River?"
"I have known for a long time that the Prince of Nanyue is one of the great patrons of the Dahe Gang, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is definitely not their only customer and master. If one day their other master wants to do something to you, who do you think will prevail? ”
"You don't need to sow discord here, I know you have a vendetta against the Big River."
"Haha," Jin Jiu laughed a few times, "They really don't deserve to be kidnapped by me so sacrificed to feed the tiger."
"And what are you for?"
"In order to have the opportunity to face the prince like this, I can sit down and talk about business."
"Why are you talking to me?"
"Because I have a grudge against the River."
"If that's the case, wouldn't you have a grudge against me and my mother?"
"There's a grudge, but after all, it's the River Gang that attacked. And I'm a businessman, and since there are some hatreds that can't be eliminated and avoided, then I need to get some benefits back, even if I sell my youth and chastity. This is a kind of compensation. ”
"You actually want to talk to me about how to seek revenge on the Great River Gang in the territory of the Great River Gang"
"Don't worry, Your Royal Highness the Prince, my brain is not broken, and I was not stupid by the old eagle of the Black Kiln of the Dahe Gang back then. I'm sure you cleared the field before you spoke to me, and there's no one from the Big River Gang here. You know what I know, and the people of the Big River Gang will be like you? ”
"You...," Ruan Qianye was a little speechless.
