Chapter 152: Buying Jiangnan Industries (Third Update)
Qin Mingyue suddenly remembered something and said, "Your idea is very good. Brother, I want to get you 100,000 taels to 200,000 taels of silver recently. It is estimated that next month, there will be big movements in Jiangnan officialdom. When the time comes, there will definitely be a lot of good shops, and the Grange will be taken out and sold. We don't want to buy the things of the victims, because it is easy to be said to be robbing while the fire is burning. We just buy the property of the officials who have gone bad. It's cheap and hassle-free. I'll find someone to accompany you in this matter. For such a major event as the purchase of industry, it is better for you to go there in person. By the way, I also went back to the old family to see if there was anything we needed help with. ”
"Before, our family was in decline, and we couldn't take care of ourselves, let alone the clan. Although it is still just the beginning, the clan is our foundation, and we cannot give up. ”
Qin Guosong received so much news at once, and he couldn't digest it for a while. What does it mean that there will be big movements in Jiangnan officialdom? What does it mean to buy the property of an official who has broken things? Or do you want to buy an industry of nearly 200,000 taels of silver? Isn't this a petty fight? Is this to complete the properties of the Liguo Mansion in Jiangnan at once?
Qin Mingyue thought that the matter of the flood in the south of the Yangtze River had almost been investigated, and with the temperament of Emperor Changping, he would definitely kill on a large scale. Those Jiangnan officials who filled their pockets in the flood, did nothing, and even took advantage of the fire to rob, this time they will be unlucky. Jiangnan is rich, and corruption among officials in Jiangnan is rampant, and in his previous life, Qin Mingyue knew it well. In her previous life, she also killed a number of people. On the contrary, he got a lot of money from raiding his house, which made up for the financial deficit.
It is not easy to buy industries around the capital. The Great Zhou Dynasty has been established for almost 200 years, and the magnates in the capital have been peaceful for a long time, and every family has purchased industries in the capital, and the prices of the fields around the capital, even in Zhili, Lu Province, and Western Province, are higher than those in other places. In fact, because it is a northern region, the production is not as high as that in the south. In addition to the field products, the size of the shops in the capital is even more sought-after. It's always been priceless.
At that time, the Qin family also had a large number of industries in the capital. However, these properties were all lost by Qin Mingyue's grandfather and father. These properties are easy to sell, and if you want to buy them back, you can't do it with just silver and power.
However, Qin Mingyue was not in a hurry, because she knew that soon, there would be a chaos in the capital. After this turmoil, many big families and nobles were going to be raided and exterminated, and the heads of the people who were killed were rolling. At that time, there will be a lot of shops in very good locations, and the Grange will be taken out for sale. With his own power and the status of Xinglou, as long as he has enough silver, he will definitely be able to buy the most favorite pavement land for the Qin family.
Qin Mingyueguang thought about saving the silver from this year's sea trade dividends, and it would be good to buy those industries next year, but she forgot that the floods in the south of the Yangtze River, originally, in the previous life, no one managed this flood, so it was natural to provide disaster relief and calm the floods. However, in this life, Qin Mingyue promoted, the imperial court sent Qin to send over, and Qin Mingyue commanded the intelligence of the Star Picking Tower to provide information on the corrupt officials. Come to think of it, there will be a big shock in Jiangnan officialdom this year.
This is a good opportunity to buy a shop property. The shop and field property bought in this way will not be criticized by the imperial history and the people of the world, because it is not the things of the disaster victims, but because his family bought these confiscated properties, so that the government has obtained silver, which can be used on the disaster victims. And that's a good thing.
Qin Mingyue decided to use this year's sea trade dividends in Jiangnan. Next year's buying and selling of the capital's industries will be talked about next year. Maybe next year, my industries will have a good income, so that I can relax my money?
Qin Mingyue was still thinking to herself. Qin Guosong asked: "Sister, sister, what do you want?" I just asked you what you said, did you hear that? ”
Qin Mingyue was embarrassed, and just got distracted: "Ah, I was thinking about something just now." What did my brother just ask? ”
Qin Guosong had no way but to say it again: "I'm asking, sister, since you want me to go to Jiangnan and buy those properties, what should I do about these things at home?" What about this school? What about family affairs? ”
Qin Mingyue pondered and said, "The matter of the academy is actually not a big deal. You decide the things of the land yourself, and the rest of the seats are bought and arranged, and it doesn't cost much silver to fill them up. If it's a big deal, I'll hand it over to the second uncle to manage it all. Well, find a time, I want to talk to the second uncle. After all, it's our own family. If I could listen to us, I wouldn't mind giving him some favors. ”
"The affairs of the family, when the banquet is over, there is no major matter. By the way, if you go to Jiangnan, you can only go for two months at most, and you have to go over quickly, it's best to ask the people in Jiangnan to help you inquire now. Because, it won't be long before I ask Mrs. Shen, the wife of the Hou Shizi of Xiangyang, to help you find a candidate for a wife. When the time comes, I want you to see it for yourself. ”
Why did he suddenly talk about this matter, Rao is Qin Guosong has always been calm, and he couldn't help blushing.
Seeing her brother's flushed face, Qin Mingyue couldn't help laughing: "It turns out that my brother is also shy?" Heck, what's there to be shy about this? Men should get married, and women should get married. This is the principle of human nature. Our Qin family is even more different from others. Our Qin family is in ruins, and the family is lacking a capable and assertive housekeeper. In this way, grandmothers and mothers can enjoy their old age in peace. My brother and I can also have no worries and focus on the prosperity of the family and the handling of government affairs. My brother is already a scholar of Guozijian. I estimate that it won't be long before the emperor will do an errand for my brother. When the time comes, my brother will be out of office. Where is the spirit steward? A sister-in-law who is capable, self-sufficient, assertive, kind-hearted, and generous is too important to our family. Brother, what do you think? ”
Although Qin Guosong was still a little shy, he had to admit that what his sister said was very reasonable. I need a good hostess in my own house so much. Grandmother was selfish and only knew how to pull money into her pocket. The mother is confused, and she can't stand up. 's father is used to coming to Hu, and the family used to be rampant with aunts, and the concubine was even more arrogant than the concubine. Now, though, it's better because of my sister's rectification. However, my father's backyard is still a mess, and there are more and more aunts. Therefore, my father can't count on it, and it's already good if I don't add to the chaos.
Now my sister and myself can barely support this family, but my sister is busier than herself. I want to be a leader in the future, what should I do with this family?
