Chapter 180: Big Profit
Another half hour had passed.
There are more and more gentry housekeepers who come with money around, and even the gentry who want to enter the sales shop with money are also directly queuing up from the sales shop to the outside, and the boss has a long line.
Suddenly, there was a commotion from the sales shop.
Soon, several gentry walked out of it with a look of urgency.
Then, rushing to some of the gentry who had not yet left, his face was full of courtesy.
"Gong Zheng, I heard that you bought it first, and you also bought three mansions at a time, I want to increase the price by one hundred taels of silver to buy one set."
"Huh?"
That Zheng Gong's eyes were full of suspicion.
At this time, there was already a scribe standing at the door of the sales shop, holding an iron horn in his hand and shouting: "All the houses have been sold out, you don't need to queue up." ”
"What, three hundred mansions, how did they sell so quickly?"
"Yes, when did so many solid people appear in my Beiping Mansion?"
“……”
Suddenly, there was a commotion in the entire crowd, and most of the people looked remorseful, like mourning.
Ignoring it, soon a group of gentry and wealthy businessmen reacted, and a group of people rushed to the side, and the group of gentry and businessmen with the deed in their hands surrounded them.
"Gong Wu, you have three mansions, how about we increase the price by one hundred taels of silver, how about buying one?"
"Gong Wu, let's increase the price by two hundred taels of silver!"
"I'll increase the price by three hundred taels ......"
"Li Yuanwai, the second son of your family asked to marry my daughter's marriage, and the old man agreed, but this house is ......"
"Zhao Gong, our family is related by marriage, I will increase the price by two hundred taels of silver......"
"Money Clerks ......"
Outside the entire sales shop, there was a sudden uproar.
For a small three-room house, these gentry and wealthy businessmen who are all heads and faces in Beiping Mansion on weekdays have completely shown their most philistine side.
Zhu Gaochi was dumbfounded.
On the contrary, Zhu Di on the side had a bright light in his eyes, and his whole body trembled slightly with excitement.
Three hundred...... Two hundred and ninety houses, each three hundred taels, is nearly ninety thousand taels of silver.
Just by building these mansions, he Yan Wangfu directly earned more than 80,000 taels of silver? When did he Yan Wangfu make money so fast?
It's faster than grabbing money, right?
When did the silver of these gentry and wealthy merchants become so profitable?
When Zhu Di was full of joy, Zhu Gaochi was a little puzzled: "Dad, didn't they all want to buy it at first?" ”
"Hmph, these are the gentry who pride themselves on how virtuous they are."
Zhu Di smiled coldly, "No matter how high they usually boast about themselves, when they come here, after seeing that it is profitable, they are eager to take advantage of all the advantages."
Chi'er, you have to remember that the more you brag about your gentry, the more vigilant you must be......"
"The child understands!"
……
Soon, the gentry and merchants in front of the entire sales shop hugged each other and disappeared.
"Let's go, let's take you to the library of the academy to have a look."
Zhu Di said a word to Zhu Gaochi beside him, and then he didn't care whether Zhu Gaochi agreed or not, and took the lead to go inside.
"Your Highness, Your Highness?"
On the top floor of the library building, Guo Anzheng was looking at the scene at the door of the sales shop below with a leisurely face.
Unexpectedly, when I looked up, Zhu Di, who hadn't been out for a long time, actually came up with Zhu Gaochi, and couldn't help but be shocked.
"What trick did Guo Qing use to make those rich merchants not buy one hundred taels of silver, but it rose to three hundred taels, and those gentry and rich businessmen began to scramble to buy one by one?"
Zhu Di asked with a smile, his eyes full of curiosity.
Guo An said with a smug face: "Your Highness, these mansions are only worth this price." ”
Zhu Di said: "We know that to build such a mansion, it will only cost a dozen taels of silver at most." ”
Guo An hurriedly said, "Your Highness, it's twenty taels of silver." ”
"You're counting all those paving and roads......
Zhu Di retorted, and then urged: "Okay, okay, why do you need to care so much about some small things."
Tell us how you sold these little mansions for three hundred taels of silver, and the gentry were all vying for rare treasures, and they were eager to buy a few more mansions each! ”
Guo An said: "Your Highness, this matter is the simplest. In fact, although there is a school house in the college for college students to rest at night, they are all four people crammed into one room.
This is extremely unaccustomed to the children of wealthy businessmen and gentry who have been pampered since childhood.
And when we built these mansions, the gentry and wealthy merchants had already begun to inquire.
It's just that they think a hundred taels of silver is expensive......"
However, at that time, the price of each house was one hundred taels of silver, which was already the lowest price that Wei Chen could sell for after comprehensive consideration.
Wei Chen never thought that those gentry and rich merchants were so treacherous and stingy that they couldn't bear a hundred taels of silver...... also wants to force Wechen to lower the price.
Weichen is no, anyway, these houses can't be sold, and our Yanwang Mansion will lose up to 6,000 taels of silver...... But His Royal Highness can rest assured, even if it can't be sold, Weichen can also make the Yanwang Mansion lose money......"
"However, the children of the gentry and wealthy merchants suffered all day long in the accommodation of the academy, and when they saw that the well-equipped mansion outside could not be lived, they would be anxious themselves. In addition, after the cold winter, it is even colder......
In fact, some of them want to buy these mansions, but they still fantasize about uniting to persecute Wechen......
Wechen sent out a signal that if they didn't buy it, Wechen would keep raising the price.
At the same time, invisibly, it gives a little value to these houses...... It is to invite Daru to move in, and to make it a school district room......
Your Highness, the entire Ming Dynasty, and Weichen dare not guarantee it, but in the territory of Beiping Mansion, our academy must be the best academy.
In the future, I don't know how many people in Beiping Mansion want to sharpen their heads and enter the academy.
Therefore, when those people hear the news that they can directly enter the school if they have the deed of the house, they will inevitably be unmoved.
In everyone's hearts, only reading is the foundation of their family's long-term prosperity, especially the academy sacrificial wine or that Du Gong ......"
"At this time, I am not afraid that they will unite again. In fact, the people who knew the gentry and wealthy merchants best were their own people.
Weichen hasn't sent anyone to release the news that someone has bought it, and their own people can't bear it at first, so they secretly bring enough silver taels one by one to buy the house.
Your Highness, do you know that the first gentleman who came to buy the mansion brought three thousand taels of silver, and bought ten at a time.
Later, none of the gentry were two thousand taels or more than one thousand taels, and they obviously wanted to buy the mansion and prepare to sell it at a premium......"
Listening to Guo An's words, and then thinking of the scenes he saw below, Zhu Di couldn't help but look disdainful, "It's really a group of people who forget their righteousness for profit......"
Guo An did not have the slightest awareness that he was also a gentry, and said with a smile: "What His Royal Highness said is very true, these gentry and wealthy businessmen still have in-laws, relatives, classmates, teachers and students, and the same year...... Relationships of all kinds.
However, for a few hundred taels of silver, they began to calculate each other.
Wechen guessed that if these 300 mansions were sold, at least 100 mansions would be sold by them at a price of 200 taels of silver, or even 300 taels of silver......"
A hint of surprise flashed in Zhu Di's eyes, "Why did Guo Qing say that?" ”
Guo An smiled faintly, "Your Highness, because only in this way can those gentry make money, and only then can they make the mansion they bought more valuable." ”
Zhu Di said again: "Let's see that there is still a large area of land around the academy, if Guo Qing builds three hundred mansions on these lands, won't those mansions be worthless?" ”
Guo An shook his head slightly, "Your Highness, are you willing to sell the newly built mansion for less than three hundred taels of silver?" ”
Zhu Di's eyes lit up, "Can you really build a mansion again?" ”
"Back to Your Highness, it should be possible." Guo An replied.
Zhu Di couldn't help but ask with some curiosity: "What if no one buys it?" Could it be that you still have to drop it to a hundred taels of silver? ”
Guo An smiled lightly, "Your Highness, there won't be anyone who won't buy it!" Because, those gentry and merchants will not allow the price of those mansions to drop to three hundred taels of silver! ”
Zhu Di's eyes widened suddenly, "Guo Qing's meaning is that the Yanwang Mansion can build another batch of mansions and earn eighty or ninety thousand taels of silver again?" ”
"Your Highness is wise."
Guo An replied respectfully.
Zhu Di's breathing suddenly became short, "How is this possible?" How many rich people are there in our Beiping Mansion? ”
Guo An said: "Your Highness, don't underestimate those businessmen!" Perhaps, it is not impossible for a house to sell for five hundred taels of silver. ”
Zhu Di hurriedly urged: "In this way, you will prepare quickly, and then go to build a house for us." ”
"Yes, Your Highness."
Guo An responded, and then remembered something, and was a little embarrassed: "Your Highness, you can't build a house in the cold winter."
And when the spring comes, Weichen needs to follow His Royal Highness on the expedition, and I'm afraid that more than 100,000 taels of silver will not be able to earn for a while! ”
“……”
Zhu Di took a deep look at Guo An and said, "This matter can be handed over to Jin Zhong." ”
Guo An replied: "Your Highness, Jin Zhong has won the trust of Weichen, and this person is also familiar with a lot of military books, so Weichen is ready to let this person accompany him." ”
Zhu Di said: "In this way, then wait until you come back from the Northern Expedition and earn more than 100,000 taels of silver." ”
Guo An: "......"
……
It was a few days later.
In the palace of King Yan, a rumor suddenly appeared that made all the scribes full of joy.
Guo Changshi led the sugar workshop built by a group of craftsmen from Gongzheng, and the sugar production was successful.
Moreover, the sugar produced is as crystal clear as snow particles.
In this way, they have another financial road in Yanwangfu, and it is still the kind of financial road that is golden and can not be seen at a glance!
Keep it in the temple.
Zhu Di and Zhu Gaochi were each sitting on a chair reading a book, and a red-hot iron stove was placed next to them, which made the hall very warm.
"So the sugar mill really makes sugar?"
After listening to Ma He's report, a trace of surprise flashed in Zhu Di's eyes, and the books in his hands were subconsciously put down.
"Back to Your Highness, I really made white sugar." Ma He hurriedly replied.
Zhu Di couldn't help but praise: "Guo Qing is really talented, he can make white sugar without using sucrose...... Well? Sugar is the name of the workshop that produces sugar? ”
Ma He also replied with a happy face: "Back to Your Highness, that's exactly the case." I heard that the white sugar made by the sugar workshop was crystal clear, and it was casually named white sugar by Guo Changshi. ”
"Sugar ......"
Zhu Di frowned slightly, "Guo Qing's name is still as vulgar as ever. ”
Ma He hurriedly smiled, but he didn't dare to say yes.
He didn't dare to provoke that Guo Changshi.
Just as Zhu Di continued to ask, a voice suddenly came from the side: "Dad, the child wants to eat that white sugar." ”
Zhu Di turned his head to see that at the corner of Zhu Gaochi's mouth, a crystal clear saliva had already flowed.
I couldn't help but cry and laugh.
However, he had never eaten such crystal clear white sugar, so he instructed Ma He: "Go to the sugar factory quickly and bring us a pound of white sugar." ”
"Your Highness......"
Ma and his face was full of shame.
