Chapter 216: Luoyang Immigrants (1)

Zhou Tian and Ronghua entered the hall with smiles on their faces and bowed.

Zhuang Shaoyou couldn't wait to ask, "What's the situation?" ”

Zhou Tian smiled slightly: "Fortunately, I am not dishonored!" ”

Zhuang Shaoyou breathed a sigh of relief, if this kind of treasure is sold in a hurry, I am afraid that it will be greatly suppressed by others! And Zhuang Shaoyou is unwilling to buy and sell as strongly as He Jin! Southern Liaoning to business prosperity, the most important word reputation, this is a matter of long-term interests and short-term interests, Zhuang Shaoyou can also distinguish! And his conscience would not allow him to do that!

Zhou Tian and Ronghua glanced at each other, and Ronghua said:

"General, my subordinates went to contact the buyer last night, and today it was finally negotiated, and the two treasures and many goods were sold to one buyer, with a total price of 39 million!"

When Zhuang Shaoyou heard this, he frowned slightly, so low? It's not what I expected!

Rong Hua smiled and continued: "General, don't worry! There is also good news, now that the chaos in Luoyang has become a success, even if Liu Wei ascends the throne, there will be constant disputes, such as the general and He Jin, and the people of Luoyang are generally optimistic that the general can win! The matter of the relocation of subordinates' families, Luoyang's business community has also spread, and many businessmen who are good friends with their subordinates on weekdays have come to inquire, and many people have the intention of migrating! ”

When Zhuang Shaoyou heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he couldn't help but praise:

"That's a good thing! Promise them! ”

Zhou Tian smiled: "This matter still needs to be decided by the general, so the two subordinates did not directly agree!" ”

After speaking, he smiled at Zhuang Shaoyou with deep meaning, Zhuang Shaoyou realized, that's right, this group of people are ghostly, they have to be carefully examined and assessed, and they have to be made to feel that this is a difficult thing to do, so that they can be grateful to Dade!

And there are many giants in Luoyang, and the number of giant businessmen at this level like Ronghua is not a few, and the background of doing business is far from being comparable to the local rich people in the small land of southern Liaoning, how to ensure that they will not have too much impact on local business after they arrive in southern Liaoning, so that local businessmen in southern Liaoning can still compete with it, and the healthy competition between the two sides is also a big problem!

Zhuang Shaoyou pondered for a long time, thought of some immigration policies in later generations, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he had a plan in his heart, and instructed Zhou Tian and Ronghua:

"They want to emigrate, no problem, but it can't be too easy for them, General Ben has several conditions, this is the most basic!

First, we must abide by all the laws and regulations in southern Liaoning, and we must not exceed them in the slightest! Let them know that in the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies and tricks are in vain! If they dare to do ghosts, General Ben doesn't mind being a villain once! General Ben always reserves the right to solve problems by force! Of course, as long as they operate in accordance with the law, General Ben will protect their personal and property safety and provide corresponding convenience!

Second, after Luoyang merchants arrived in southern Liaoning, they could do business independently and participate in maritime trade, and all conditions were the same as those of local merchants in southern Liaoning, but investment in industries must be joint ventures with local merchants in southern Liaoning or joint ventures with the government, and it was forbidden to hold shares for three years! However, for new areas in southern Liaoning that no one has yet touched, restrictions can be relaxed as appropriate!

Third, prohibit the operation of unfair industries! Including but not limited to casinos, green houses, loan sharks and other industries!

That's all for now, and the rest of you two will be at your discretion! ”

Zhou Tian's face was full of astonishment when he heard it below, while Ronghua was sweating!

Zhuang Shaoyou glanced at Ronghua and smiled: "Don't worry, these are not valid for you, you are the same as Zhou Tian, you will be an official and businessman in southern Liaoning in the future!" ”

When Ronghua heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then he was overjoyed, with this promise, it would be smooth sailing in southern Liaoning in the future! The glory of the ancestors is just around the corner! At the moment, Ronghua is very grateful, which makes Zhuang Shaoyou annoying!

Zhou Tian on the side said: "General, the conditions are so harsh, I'm afraid it will discourage many businessmen!" But if it is not so restricted, the impact on southern Liaoning is too great, southern Liaoning is remote, and the local businessmen know best what the situation is, and it is impossible to compete with the giant merchants in Luoyang! ”

Zhuang Shaoyou nodded slightly and said, "It's okay, General Ben didn't plan to let them all go, it's their freedom to move or not!" It's just that they missed this opportunity, and General Ben promises that they will regret it in the future! By the way, Ronghua is most familiar with Luoyang businessmen, and he will win over those law-abiding businessmen, and refuse those who are accustomed to speculation or have a bad reputation! Also, after the goods were sold this time, 15 million were distributed to the Empress Dowager He on the other side of the palace! ”

Zhuang Shaoyou turned his head, unwilling to look at everyone's surprised eyes, after all, this matter is too embarrassing! I didn't catch anything, and I had to post fifteen million!

The army's rewards and pensions have finally come to an end, and according to the discussed plan, plus the fifteen million given to He Lian, there will be a balance of 10 million money!

Zhou Tian thought of another way to levy an immigration tax on those businessmen who wanted to emigrate! 5% of the total assets will make those businessmen a little painful, but it will not break the muscles and bones! In this way, it is not a problem to collect twenty or thirty million!

Zhuang Shaoyou paused and continued: "There is one more thing, which is extremely important! As mentioned yesterday, the disaster relief should be slightly adjusted, and the recruitment of displaced people in Qingzhou should not stop, but a few boats of grain will be transported to Sili, and in a few days, the disaster victims near Sili will definitely gather in Luoyang, and we must prepare in advance! Inform Liaonan to transport 500,000 Hu corn to Luoyang first! Let's open a porridge shop at the south pier of the city! ”

Zhou Tian said: "General, we still have more than 190,000 pieces of fine grain on the ship, these were originally transported as military rations, and thousands of Hu have been consumed this month, and there are still a lot left!" The subordinates thought that they should exchange this batch of grain for coarse grain, and then provide disaster relief! After all, quantity is far more important than quality for disaster victims! ”

Zhuang Shaoyou nodded slightly, that's the truth!

"Yes, you'll take care of it! In addition, send someone to send a letter to Lord Gongsun Du, this year Liao Pingyuan also tried to plant a lot of corn, ask Lord Gongsun if he is willing to recruit displaced people, if he is willing we can provide boats, if not, we can buy their corn! ”

"Subordinates obey!"

When the deliberations were finished, the people dispersed, each going about his own business.

Soon, the business community in Luoyang set off a wave, and Zhuang Shaoyou was open to immigrants, but the conditions were extremely harsh! It makes many businessmen who yearn for southern Liaoning prohibitive!

For this point, Zhou Tian had already anticipated, and asked Ronghua to convene a meeting of those merchants to publicize the business policy and overseas trade in southern Liaoning, including the trade of the Bohai Rim Trade Circle, Goguryeo, the peninsula, and the Wa Kingdom, of course, for the Ryukyus and Jiangnan lands, there is no description, these two places are too important, they must be in the hands of their own people, and they have never been opened to the local merchants of southern Liaoning!

But it doesn't matter, the temptation and interests of these places alone are enough to impress the hearts of many businessmen who are ready to move, since ancient times, doing business, nothing more than two ways, one is to buy and sell, the other is industrial production, each has its own merits, with the shrewdness and insight of Luoyang businessmen, you can have a rough guess about the profits, absolutely rich!

Among them, many of the merchants' ancestors have walked the Silk Road, but with the decline of the Han Dynasty, the national strength is weak, the land of the Western Regions can not be effectively controlled, and there are many foreign invasions, so most of the businessmen have broken off the idea of taking the Silk Road, but this is only twenty or thirty years, and those older merchants still remember it vividly, when a silk horse was purchased from Chang'an, it was only more than 900 yuan, and it was sold to the big food to sell it for a pound of gold! Ten times more profit! If it is sold to Constantinople, it is even more terrifying, more than twenty times more profitable!

But in recent years, not only the Silk Road has been broken, but even the domestic trade routes are also precarious, dangerous, the roads are not very smooth, there are many bandits and robbers, the risk is too high, the goods can only circulate in the hinterland of the Central Plains, the goods of Yangzhou and Yizhou cannot reach the Central Plains, and the trade routes of Youzhou are also blocked!

Hearing Zhou Tian's description, if you take a trip to Goguryeo or the Wa Kingdom, and traffic the goods along the Yellow River to the Central Plains, the profit will be at least five times more, although it is not as amazing as the windfall profits of the Silk Road, but it is definitely exciting, and the whole process is mainly on the ship, and there is basically no big problem in terms of safety! Everyone has heard of those giant ships in the south of the city even if they have never seen them, and their power is absolutely amazing, and they don't worry about being robbed halfway at all!

Low risk, high reward, many people are tempted!

Zhou Tian casually described the trade prospects of southern Liaoning, and then stopped talking, looking like the old gods were there, as if they didn't care at all if they were willing or not, those merchants were not stupid, knowing that Zhou Tian was taking a shelf to attract them to take the bait! So one by one they also sat there, muttering in small voices, and no one took the initiative to express their stance for a long time.

Ronghua on the side turned a blind eye to this, chatting with Zhou Tian with or without a match, and it was also the appearance of the old god, as for what he thought in his heart, I don't know!

The two sides spent an hour on each other, and finally some businessmen who were not very wealthy couldn't bear it, and came to Ronghua's side and asked:

"Boss Rong, you are a model businessman in Luoyang, this land in southern Liaoning is good, but the immigration conditions are too harsh, and none of us have ever been there, as the saying goes, seeing is believing, hearing is false, this black and white is all based on Boss Zhou's mouth, we have no bottom in our hearts!"

Ronghua smiled: "Brother, haven't I moved?" Now Rong's family has long been in southern Liaoning to enjoy happiness, and there is no need to worry about it all day long in Luoyang! ”

The man continued: "We can't compare with Boss Rong, you saw the opportunity early, the road is wide, and you have already taken refuge in the general, this treatment must be different, what is the arrangement of these backward people, everyone is panicked, Boss Rong, you have to give our brother a bottom, pull the brother a hand!" ”
