The emperor even asked Xie Xun directly, "You tell me honestly, do you plan to use the money of me and the people of the capital to envelop those displaced people in the south of the city?" ”

No matter how much the emperor thinks, he can't make money from the land in the south of the city. Although he only participated in two million taels, is it easy for him, a poor emperor, to get two million taels?

Two million taels, it is better to let the inner library be released to the royal family and collect the silver, so there will be one hundred and eighty thousand taels a year, otherwise there will be an inner library, and it will be better to let the rats bite than to be scourged by Xie Xun.

"I want to get back the two million taels, and I am not allowed to say any business rules!" The emperor looked domineering.

Xie Xun and the emperor stared at each other for a long time before they dropped their shoulders helplessly, "Okay, since the emperor insists on doing this, the minister can't help it." It's just that the minister has to tell the emperor that you will regret it! ”

The emperor replied to Xie Xun with a cold snort.

Xie Xun returned the two million taels of silver to the emperor, and at the same time published a message in the "Donghai Morning Post": If anyone wants to withdraw the shares, they can come and ask for the silver back! The last chance to regret it, when the project is officially launched, even if you kneel in front of Xie Shizi, don't think about getting a penny back!

At the time of the landing, the threshold of the "Homeland" project office was almost trampled down.

Three days later, the money manager held the account book in front of Xie Xun with a gray face.

"A total of 19,363,800 taels of silver will be returned, plus your own, a total of 58,986,700 taels of silver remaining...... It cost 49,896,000 taels to buy that piece of land, and now there are less than 10 million taels left in the silver for the construction of the project...... "The more the money manager talked, the more discouraged he became.

Xie Xun smiled, "There are still nearly 20 million taels of equity silver left and no one will take it back, it seems that this Shizi's earning ability is still recognized by the people of the capital." ”

Originally, he didn't plan to repay the silver that participated in the shares, but the emperor set an example, if he held the silver, maybe there would be a popular uprising. He wanted to make money, but he didn't want to cause trouble. Eventually, he decided to give up on those who didn't want to follow.

For example, the Gao family, the four princes, the crown prince, and the officials of these factions have taken back their own participation money.

Originally, 70 million taels of silver were recruited, barely enough for the infrastructure of the land and the first two phases of the project, but now there is a void of more than 10 million taels of silver. Xie Shi will definitely not be able to come up with any more silver.

"Or the villain will let the servants of the clan take some silver?" Money steward proposed.

The Xie clan had thousands of slaves, each of whom took out a few hundred taels, so that the money for the first phase of the project was enough.

Xie Xun shook his head, "No." ”

Now that the land in the south of the city has become a money-losing commodity in the mouths of the people, if he forces the slaves in the clan to participate in the shares, especially some slaves, a hundred taels may be all their savings for them, and if they don't get it, they will cause trouble to the wall. No matter what outsiders think, you must make yourself feel that you are making money with him, not working for nothing.

"Let the fourth young master publish the news in the morning paper: This Shizi wants to sell the drawings of the sewing machine and the bicycle, and each bid 10 million taels of silver, and those who are interested should come to this Shizi to negotiate quickly. Three days is limited, and there is no waiting for the time to expire. ”

The money steward screamed and shook his head again and again, "How can this work!" The sewing machine is the key to making money for the noble son and the noble girl! And the bicycle, which can lay golden eggs......"

If the money manager is not a slave, I am afraid that he will already point at Xie Xun's nose and scold the "loser".

Xie Xun patted the old man on the shoulder soothingly, "Don't worry, there are a lot of wonderful ideas for making money." ”

What he didn't say was that the blueprints for sewing machines and bicycles were sold not just to make money for the "homeland" project, but also for political purposes.

Old Lady Xie heard the news = this news, and her wrinkled eyes bent into crescents, "Xun'er is now more and more aware of the overall situation." ”

Xie Shangshu twisted his beard with satisfaction, "With these two bait, those people still don't break the blood?" ”

In the capital, there is no one who can come up with tens of millions of taels of silver alone, and if you want to buy the drawings of sewing machines and bicycles, you must make up the silver together, however, when you get the drawings, how will the benefits be distributed?

Thinking of those people fighting for the sake of profit, Xie Shangshu stroked his palms and laughed.

My sister-in-law's trick is ruthless enough!

The Pei family is in a new house in the capital.

The four princes, Pei Youan, Gao Shiqing, and the three staff members of the Pei family are arguing fiercely. Xiuniang, the eldest daughter of the Pei family, also sat behind the screen, quietly listening to the men arguing.

Xie Xun's drawings of sewing machines and bicycles, both the Pei family and the Gao family wanted, but their silver was not enough!

Pei Xiuniang had asked the craftsman to combine the drawings of the parts according to the appearance drawings dictated by the old man who dug out the dung in Xie's garment workshop, and failed to assemble the sewing machine.

Just when they were depressed, the morning newspaper suddenly published thunderous news, and the entire capital exploded.

The fourth prince didn't even have dinner, so he hurried to Pei's mansion, he didn't even inform Gao Shiqing, but when he appeared at the door of Pei's mansion, he ran into Gao Shiqing.

After the two were slightly stunned, they didn't have any suspicions, and went to find Pei Youan together.

Pei Youan is also wandering anxious about this matter.

He and his father dreamed of getting the drawings of these two things, and now Xie Xun took the initiative to sell them, but Pei Mansion didn't have any money~

No, there are some pieces of silver in Pei's Mansion, and the jewelry that is still being sold for export can make up at least five million taels...... Only those who were originally going to make a dowry for their sister-in-law, Pei Youan was a little afraid to move.

Pei Xiuniang waved her hand very generously, "As long as I can buy drawings for sewing machines and bicycles, my dowry will be used first!" ”

With those two things, the silver can be earned back in three months at most. Pei Xiuniang has never been short-sighted.

Because Pei Xiuniang gave her dowry, there was a fierce quarrel between these men.

The Gao family also fought hard this time, sold all the granges, and scraped together 1.5 million taels of silver.

The fourth prince took out all the bodies of the noble concubines and nephews over the years, plus the million taels that Pei Youan lent him before, a total of two million taels of silver.

The three of them are arguing, who will pay out except for the remaining 1.5 million taels? Also, if you buy the drawings, how will the benefits be distributed?

"The southern area belongs to my Gao family!" Gao Shiqing was the champion, and at this time, he was also red and red because of the dispute over gold and silver.

For the first time, the fourth prince was dissatisfied with his cousin, "The ten provinces in the south all belong to your Gao family, cousin, you are also very ruthless!" ”

Most of the southern towns are land of fish and rice, and the people are rich and have strong purchasing power, which is inferior to the capital. The market in the capital has been occupied by Xie's shop, and they can only divide the market in other areas.

There are rich and poor in the southeast and northwest, and there is a disagreement, and no one wants to be allocated to the poor land. It's a matter of making money, even if it's a wife, they won't give an inch.

Gao Shiqing didn't want to annoy the four princes, but the Gao family was too poor now. When leaving, his father expected this and specially told him that no matter what, he would win the southern area into the hands of the Gao family.

Because the Pei family is stationed in the southwest, they naturally want the market in the southwest, but they can't help but expand to the rich southern provinces, although he didn't accuse Gao Shiqing of being cheeky like the four princes, and he was also very unhappy in his heart.

According to the amount of silver, the Gao family can only be divided into the northern market in the poor countryside!
