Chapter 276: Someone is not optimistic
This matter will be handed over to my uncle to do, after this period of tempering, and my uncle is originally a businessman, he will not live up to his trust.
And with the assistance of the butler, it was even easier, of course, this was due to the success of the test of the steam carriage, which greatly expanded everyone's confidence and knowledge.
The steam carriage carried dozens of people, including the emperor and the ministers, which was something that had never been done before, and it was excellent publicity, and if this fundraising was turned into a profit, it would surely attract many nobles.
Xianyang concentrates the world's officials and nobles, and there are many wealthy businessmen, with their eyes, such as Chang'an Township to release a lure, they will not be able to resist the temptation.
Xianyang City, a bustling street market, the headquarters of Chang'an Township Commercial Bank is here, which is since the formation of the caravan, Chang'an Township was only built here, and the housekeeper is resident here.
It was originally the residence of a wealthy businessman, but after he went bankrupt, he was bought by Li Ki-nong, and it happened to come in handy and used as the headquarters of the firm.
At this moment, a huge billboard was placed at the door, and the board said about investment, clearly pointing out that this was raised by investing in a steam carriage, and how many dry shares were obtained according to the amount of money invested.
"Dry stocks? What is Dry Stock? At that time, there were many people gathered at the door of the Chang'an Township Commercial Bank, most of these people were dressed in rich clothes, either rich businessmen or high-ranking housekeepers.
Some people pointed at the billboards, but not very much.
Li Jinong has already stood at the door, in fact, he can attract so many nobles, it is his partners who have attracted them.
He stepped forward, whispered his voice, and answered everyone's questions.
For example, if there are a number of people who invest and raise a total of 10,000 gold, then according to a dry stock for a gold, 10,000 gold is 10,000 dry shares, if a person invests two gold, it is to have two dry shares."
This is easy to understand, and it is quickly understood by everyone, but some people suspect that a dry stock is a gold, and a gold is a large amount of money at present, but it can only occupy a dry share, which is a bit uneconomical, and, if you really invest, can you benefit?
It's an investment that's never been done before, and no one can figure it out.
Daqin has suppressed commerce for a long time, and there are not many commercial activities that exist, even if it is banned and suppressed, it is still in the initial stage of commerce, of course, without the common sense of economic means in later generations, even if the current business is prosperous, it may not be able to have such an insight.
As a result, the emergence of dry stocks forced them to scrutinize.
It's no wonder that they are like this, Daqin's existing business activities are just money transactions, and half a tael of money plays the role of a medium in it, and there is even a trade in things, which is separated from the role of the media, and is very unfamiliar with stocks.
Although the workshop has signs of emerging, it is also small-scale, and small scale means that there can be no large-scale investment, and naturally there is no concept of shares.
It is no wonder that those who can run workshops are all rich people, they have family wealth, and they do not need other people to participate in something, and naturally they do not need such a thing as shares.
And if Qiang Fu wants to engage in business activities, it is almost impossible, it depends on whether they have surplus food, and they need to have some financial resources, and they have not solved the situation of food and clothing, how can they talk about surplus food, and even if they have, they do not dare to buy and sell rashly, because no one knows what is behind the sale.
If they are mired in the quagmire, they will only perish.
"And what about the benefits?"
This is a gorgeously dressed but plain person, but without official rank features, and with a low-level posture, came out and asked.
At first glance, this man is a businessman.
Shinong industry and commerce, businessmen are cheap, but businessmen are richer than most of them, and they are particular about clothing when they are rich, but this kind of attention cannot be revealed, and even to show their lowliness, just like Lu Buwei before he entered the office, as a rich businessman, he was very simple in dress, which is the limit of the times.
This is also a matter of concern to everyone, no one wants to spend a lot of money down, to the last bit of income is not available, it is better to run your own workshop, success or failure is in your own hands, and you don't have to worry all day long.
Li Jinong smiled, looking so confident, and did not answer the question directly, but asked rhetorically: "What do you think of the reputation of my Chang'an Township Commercial Bank?" ”
Everyone was thoughtful.
The reason why Li Jinong was able to mobilize so many nobles to come to watch naturally has his own credibility, although everyone does not like Li Zhao, but their credibility is credible.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Li Jinong showed his heart and spoke for everyone: "Everyone reacts like this, it must be because they trust my firm, and there is no profit, will my firm do it?" ”
This sentence directly made everyone nod their heads.
Indeed, there are many industries in Chang'an Township, each of which is outstanding, and it also makes the collaborators earn a lot of money.
Li Jinong continued: "Of course, this project is not the current industry of Chang'an Township, but an innovative version of the steam carriage, the famous train, the train, is ten times the steam carriage of Shengzhi. ”
"Everyone also knows the power of the steam carriage, what its business prospects will be, I think you also know it, so I won't say more, everyone vote!"
Of course, everyone has seen the strangeness of the steam carriage, and even if they were not present at the time, they have heard of its wonders, and no one would be as stupid as the Confucian scholars to say that they are useless, merchants! Nature has its own forward-looking and unique vision.
"I'll vote!" The first person to respond, the merchant, took out a bulging bag of money from his pocket, which looked quite rich.
Li Jinong took it with a smile, and was about to order someone to make a record and issue the voucher, but he saw that it was full of half a tael, and it was estimated that it was only a few hundred and a half taels.
The smile was slightly restricted, but he remained very polite, waved his hand and said: "I'm sorry for this brother, the minimum investment is ten gold, and those who are insufficient will not be absorbed." ”
Just kidding, the manufacture of trains is a big project, and it requires immeasurable money, if everyone invests half a tael, even if it is piled up, there is not a lot of money, this is not a waste of work? Comptoirs do not do such useless work.
"What? Ten gold minimum investment? It's better to grab it. The merchant was not angry, took the money bag handed back, and cursed.
Li Jinong's face sank suddenly, and he snorted: "If you like to vote or not, you will start from ten gold, and the few will ignore it." ”
The businessman was angry: "If you don't invest, you won't invest, and the so-called train that can't see any hope at all if you invest ten gold, either you have a problem with your brain or you're a loser." ”
Some people also shouted: "Yes! From 10 gold, what if you lose it all? ”
Ten gold is nothing to some wealthy businessmen, but they can't help but fan the flames, very simply, to let Li Jinong lower the investment base point, or sabotage the matter.
There are red-eyed people there.
Of course, there are also people who are not optimistic about the train, and they are not optimistic about things, and they invest ten gold in vain, which is really not cost-effective, and if they lose, they will lose all their money.
Li Jinong couldn't see their greasyness, and he was resolute and unwavering, and his nephew said that ten gold starts to take care of those officials or officials who have some savings, after all, these are the main forces in the development of business.
In the crowd, there is also one person joining in the fun, that is, Gao Yu.
The son ran away in anger, His Majesty was angry for a while, and later learned that his son arrived in Chang'an Township and was in charge of the distant merchants, he hated Li Zhao for a while, it was Li Zhao who caused his son to lose the official of the court, and it was Li Zhao who made his son wander, but later His Majesty pardoned his son's crime of escaping and kept his original position, so that he felt better, but his son was still outcast, and he didn't know if there would be any danger, and because of this, his colleagues who once envied him laughed at him for being stupid, and said that his son was a cheap businessman.
A cheap merchant is not even as good as a farmer, which is a great insult to the Gao family, which makes Gao Yu feel inferior when he goes out.
No, when I heard that the firm was raising funds, I also came out of curiosity, but I was secretive, for fear that someone would recognize him.
