255. The King of Wealth

"Feed on people, not as good as animals!"

"It's better to cut down such a stubborn and arrogant barbarian!"

"Virtue is soft China, punishment is to power the four yi, and the island Yi preys on my Han people, the crime is extremely evil, and the master should ask for the crime!"

"Savages don't produce for a long time, and they don't know etiquette, righteousness and shame, so what qualifications do they have to steal from my inherent land in China?"

"If you are like a wolf, how can you be a human, you should get rid of it and hurry up!"

"In the view of old age, there is no need to be like this, the sage said, "Although Di Yi, do not abandon it", the scholar must not be Hongyi, we are all the children of the saints, and we should teach the savages on the island and etiquette, so that they can change their customs and become real people."

"Old Zhou's words are reasonable, Tang Taizong said, "Yi Di is also a human being", since we live in my Chinese land, we are indeed obliged to teach him to be good."

"I didn't expect that such a large piece of land is still barbaric, and I am deeply saddened by it, so I should follow the saint's legacy and educate him together."

"Liuqiu is an island that is separated by the sea, so that China and the rest of the world are separated, the classics cannot be reached, and the sound and religion cannot reach, so it is barbaric, and it is up to us to teach it at the same time!"

"The whole world is not the king's land, the coast of the land is not the king's minister, and the island of Liuqiu should not be an exception!"

A group of red-eyed gentry, gossiping to express their opinions, seem to have different opinions, and even disputes, but the core meaning is actually the same.

This piece of fat must be swallowed!

"Ahem!" Zhao Mengqi let out a fake cough, which made everyone gradually quiet down.

"Whether it is Huairou or edification, you have to communicate first, but the island is in a period of ignorance, wild and ferocious, basically unable to communicate, otherwise it will not be nearly a thousand years later, the Han people have not been able to gain a foothold on the island, so if you want to open up the stream, force is necessary."

Some gentry said eagerly, "There is only a group of people left and right, send an army of 10,000, and the whole island can be cleared in four or five months at most, and the cultivation can begin in the spring of next year!"

"You're thinking too simply." Zhao Mengqi shook his fingers, "First of all, where did this army come from? There are no 10,000 troops to fight on the entire Fujian Road."

"Secondly, although Shengban is primitively armed, it is also combative, and most of them live in the hills and jungles, which cannot be cleaned up at one time, and it is necessary to keep a large number of troops on the island for security warfare."

"Third, it costs a lot of money and food to send troops, not to mention that the imperial court is so poor now, even if you have money, send soldiers and horses to fight for it, why should you just open it up for us?"

"Fourth, this is a cross-sea, it must have a huge maritime capacity, and the southeast sea is not very peaceful, there are often pirates, so there must be enough sailors."

"Fifth ......"

The gentry were a little dizzy when they heard this, feeling that these difficulties were indeed intractable, but the foreseeable huge interests made them unwilling to give up.

"Your Highness, we take it for granted, this matter really needs to be considered in the long run, but presumably Your Highness has already envisioned it, it is better to make it clear directly, and we will definitely support it fully!"

"Yes, yes, your highness must have a perfect plan, where do you need us to bother thinking about it."

"Your Highness, what should you do, we'll all listen to you."

Zhao Mengqi smiled, "Then Gu will tell everyone what he thinks, and if there is anything wrong, please point it out."

"To develop such a large island, it is not possible to rely on a single and scattered government, it is necessary to gather forces and unify the pace, so I plan to set up a development company."

"The shareholding structure is still like that of a sugar company, so the imperial court will support this."

"The development flow is even more difficult than the Taihu Lake control project, therefore, Gu intends to develop the company's total investment of 60 million guan, Gu on behalf of the royal capital of 10 million guan, for the imperial court to pay 10 million guan, the other 40 million guan will issue 400,000 shares, and then increase the capital according to the situation."

"In principle, the entire land use right of Liuqiu belongs to the development company, which is equivalent to buying at least 10 million mu of land for 60 million yuan, which is still a very cost-effective business."

"Then, General Gu suggested that in order to cooperate with the development of Liuqiu, a new army on land and sea should be formed, but the development company should bear all the costs, of course, these two new armies are mainly for the purpose of this

In the future, it will be necessary for the imperial court to send a large army to stabilize the situation on the island in the early stage, and the cost of this will naturally be borne by the development company, in other words, the development company will lease the imperial army."

Lend-Lease Army? Is that okay?

This highness is really eye-opening, but I have to admit that this is a clever strategy, after all, the imperial court will definitely not allow private troops, and there is no reason to let the army work for personal interests.

And it seems that only according to the model of Yanwang can the development company justifiably monopolize and seek benefits.

Of course, it is also because the imperial court and the royal family are both major shareholders in the development company, and King Yan is still the crown prince, this whimsical plan is possible, and if others dare to mention this idea, the imperial court will definitely suspect that you plan to rebel.

After figuring out the reasoning, the gentry expressed their support.

However, Zhao Mengqi also has deeper intentions, which they can't imagine.

Zhao Mengqi's plan has always been to put aside the existing military system and establish a new army, just like his Dongwei pro-army, but only one Dongwei will definitely not be able to meet his requirements, so he has this plan.

Using the money of the development company to establish its own elite directly subordinate armed forces, it is simply the best of both worlds to draw out the elite and fill in the old army that has been dismantled, and solve part of the resettlement problem.

Next, Zhao Mengqi talked about the operation of the development company and the general steps of convection development, and the gentry pondered and discussed, and felt more and more feasible.

However, some people also found a problem, "Your Highness, with Liuqiu, the problem of raw materials has indeed been solved, and it is very likely that tens of thousands of catties will be produced in the future, but I am afraid that one catty will not be able to sell so much......, right?"

That's right, tens of thousands of catties are tens of thousands of pounds, and the imperial court can't collect so much in taxes, after all, the Great Song Dynasty is still the majority of the poor, and even if there are a lot of rich people, you can't eat sugar as rice.

Although everyone loves sugar, sugar is not a necessity, if it is produced but cannot be sold, then it is not a treasure, but a waste.

The gentry woke up, their hearts were cold, and all eyes were focused on Zhao Mengqi.

Zhao Mengqi was not in a hurry, "Don't panic, I'll calculate an account for you first, now one acre of high-quality paddy field is intensively cultivated twice a year, and it will produce three stones of rice, but sugarcane only needs dry land, and the cultivation is far less fine, and the yield per mu is at least three or four thousand catties, and the sugar output is three or four hundred catties, which is equivalent to the yield of rice, but no matter how cheap this sugar is, it can't be cheaper than rice."

In later generations, the yield of sugarcane per mu could reach four or five tons, and the sugar yield was more than 15 percent.

At this time, the price of the Great Song Dynasty was high, and the rice was about 10 wen per catty in normal times, and the raw sugar was between 60 and 100 wen per catty.

The gentry thought about it carefully, although they didn't know the real sugar yield and production cost of snow sugar, but it was definitely profitable, it was just that they didn't make so much money, so they all relaxed a little.

Some people also said, "It's a big deal, let's produce a little less, anyway, it's good to use the land that is flowing to grow other things......

Zhao Mengqi shook his head and said, "There is no need to do this, we must produce more, although coins can buy any goods, but coins themselves are not wealth, only the materials produced are considered wealth, from the perspective of the whole world, the more the better, the purpose of our business is to make money, but we must also have a sense of social responsibility."

The gentleman was embarrassed, "Your Highness has taught you that you are contemptible and shallow."

"And it's not impossible to make money, our Song Dynasty has a population of 60 or 70 million, which is the largest market in the world, even if each person consumes a pound of snow sugar, it is enough for us to grit our teeth and work hard to produce, but what if many poor people can't afford to consume?"

"One is to reduce the price appropriately, and the other is to make the poor richer."

"Some people may think this method is ridiculous, but everyone must understand that the people of China are the most industrious and hardworking people in the world, and the value they produce is far greater than what they consume, but because of all kinds of oppression, their production capacity has declined, resulting in the entire Great Song Dynasty

reduce."

"Therefore, Lone has repeatedly stated that it is necessary to reduce the burden on the people and resume production, and when they have the ability to consume, we can also make a lot of money through commodities such as snow sugar, and this method of obtaining wealth does not have to be cruelly squeezed to be a hundred times smarter, so that you are good, I am good, and everyone is happy."

"The truth in this is not complicated, you can think about it yourself, in addition, we can't just put the market in the Great Song Dynasty, you must know that even if it is other countries, other peoples, there are very few people in this world who can resist the temptation of sweetness, Mongolians, Persians, Nanyangs, Koreans, Japanese people, no matter who it is, as long as we put our snow sugar in front of him, how many people will not want to eat it?"

"The Mongols are fighting with us, but sugar is not a necessity, and it cannot increase their combat effectiveness, so it does not prevent us from selling it to him, and maybe we can exchange war horses from them and other things we need, of course, this part needs to be carried out under the supervision of the imperial court, and we will talk about it later."

"In addition to the influence of the Mongols, mainly because of the decrease in our products, which can not meet the demand for trade, so that now the Japanese people come to the Great Song Dynasty to buy our copper coins, which is nothing, to some extent, if other countries like to use the money of the Great Song Dynasty, it is a good thing for the Great Song Dynasty, but it is a good thing for the Great Song Dynasty, but our copper coins are not enough, and now it costs more than ten times the cost of minting a penny, It's a loss-making deal."

"But now that we have snow sugar, we can completely start trading again, although Goryeo and the Wa Kingdom are backward and can't make any good things, but there are also things we need, especially the Wa Kingdom, timber, copper mines, gold and silver, especially gold and silver, there is only reliable information, we know that there are several large mines that have not yet been mined, and one of them alone is conservatively estimated to be mined a thousand catties of gold and 80,000 catties of silver every year!"

!

Isn't this a real sea of gold and silver?

Niang Xipi, how did such a good place give those dwarves?

Grab it! Be sure to grab it!

The eyes of the gentry glowed again, gold on one side and silver on the other.

Zhao Mengqi saw the meaning in the gentry's gaze, and couldn't help touching his nose, "We are civilized people, we have to be stylish!"

"Lone plans to inform the Japanese people of the mining site and let them dig it by themselves, but if the technology is not good, then we will teach them, at most, cooperative mining, as for how they use labor, etc., it is their own business, let's just exchange it for goods, porcelain, silk, snow sugar, etc."

"However, the sea route is difficult and dangerous, and the efficiency of the scattered and free trade in the past is too low, so I plan to set up the East China Sea Trading Company to be responsible for this matter, and issue 100,000 shares according to the sugar company!"

Uh, another big money road!

Although King Yan said it simply, he didn't need to say too much about the trade between the Song and the Japanese, everyone understood the gold content in it, not to mention that there was real gold and silver in Japan.

How can His Royal Highness King Yan be so magical, he can throw out a lot of golden avenues with his hands, and his previous money-making methods are not even as good as scum.

Could he be the reincarnation of the God of Wealth?

It doesn't seem impossible, after all, the God of Wealth is also surnamed Zhao.

In fact, it would be more appropriate to call him the King of Wealth.

The gentry looked at Zhao Mengqi's gaze at this time, and in awe and surprise, there was more hot joy, which made Zhao Mengqi a little nervous......

At this time, some people are starting to make mistakes, and they don't know which company's shares to buy, after all, all three companies may not start to make profits after three or five years, but the potential is huge, as long as they succeed, they can really lie down and count the money.

The people who can be invited here are all people who are worth a lot of money, at least hundreds of thousands of family assets, but they have used most of their floating wealth to buy field rolls before, and there is not much left in their hands.

But the three companies in front of me are all cornucopias, and everyone wants to buy more, so many people have vague plans to sell other industries.

The three companies have a total of only 600,000 shares, with a total of 60 million yuan, which looks like a lot, but there are many rich people in the Great Song Dynasty, if it is

When the local tyrants in other places hear the news, they will definitely come to participate, and I don't know if it will be too late to sell the industry.

The gentry became a little anxious.

After the endless coma, Shi Yu suddenly got up from the bed. Want to see the latest chapters,

He took a big breath of fresh air, and his chest trembled.

Confused, incomprehensible, all kinds of emotions come to my heart.

Where is this?

Then, Shi Yu subconsciously looked around, and then became even more dazed.

A single dormitory?

Even if he had managed to be rescued, he would have been in the ward by now.

And their own bodies...... How could it be that there was no injury at all.

With doubts, Shi Yu's gaze quickly swept from the room, and finally his gaze stayed on a mirror at the head of the bed.

The mirror reflected his current appearance, about seventeen or eighteen years old, and his appearance was very handsome.

But the problem is, it's not him! Download the Star Reading app and read the latest chapters ad-free and free

The previous self was a handsome young man in his twenties who had been working for a while.

And now, no matter how you look at it, this appearance is only the age of a high school student......

This change made Shi Yu stunned for a long time.

Don't tell him that the operation was a success......

The body and face have changed, and this is not a question of surgery or not surgery at all, but immortal magic.

He's a different guy altogether!

Don't...... Did you cross by yourself?

In addition to the mirror at the head of the bed, which was obviously not good in feng shui, Shi Yu also found three books next to it.

Shi Yu picked it up and looked at it, and the title of the book instantly silenced him.

"Essential Animal Breeding Manual for Novice Breeders"

Postpartum Care for Pet Animals

"Alien Beast Ear Girl Evaluation Guide"

Shi Yu: ???

The names of the first two books are quite normal, but what are you doing with the last one?

"Ahem."

Shi Yu's eyes were solemn and he stretched out his hand, but his arm quickly stiffened.

Just as he was about to open the third book to see what it was, his brain stabbed violently, and a flood of memories flooded back.

Icefield City.
