1071 squeezed merchants
But it's so simple to make the big ship turn around and take it! Let's just say that you have to go to sea, you have to have a ship, you have to have a chart, you have to have people, and you have to have a long time to prepare! Moreover, the mortality rate is still quite high when they go to sea now, and the shipping lanes at sea are always in the hands of Liu Haojia and Xungui, if they go to sea, they will have contact with them, and maybe they will use this to get out of the hands of the civilian officials, which is absolutely unacceptable to the civilian officials behind them!
And President He provoked this matter to clearly tell Liu Haojia that they had difficulties, and they couldn't do the ideas put forward by Liu Haojia! At the same time, I didn't want to think about leaving, I wanted to use Liu Haojia to ask for some benefits, because the grass on the wall died the fastest!
After making it clear directly, even the civil officials behind the matter will not find their fault, and will only think that they are forced by Liu Haojia's *** to show their faces! After all, a gathering like this is a joke in a loose organization and wanting to keep it a secret! That's why he said it to death as soon as he came on the field to speak! This is also the reason why Liu Haojia praised him for being smart!
When President He heard Liu Haojia's words, he naturally understood what he meant, and said helplessly, "Thank you for your leniency! The grass people and others are helpless!"
Liu Haojia nodded and said, "That's right, this official can understand your thoughts! So let's put this matter to the end, let's talk about another thing! The official did not say anything about this in the letter, and you should know the reason! The official also knows that maybe someone will talk to the civil official behind you before you come. So the real thing to talk about is not said in the letter at all!"
When President He and the others heard this, their hearts sank, and they all felt that something was wrong! They talked about it to death from the beginning, they just didn't want to get caught up in the battle of officialdom! But what I didn't expect was that Liu Haojia still had hidden things to talk about, and he was still trying to drag them into the water!
But at this time, they had no room to evade, and President He could only sigh, arch his hand and say, "I want to hear about it!"
Liu Haojia said with a smile: "Then the official will ask you a question first, how much money can you keep from the money earned by your various chambers of commerce now?"
President He and the others didn't expect him to ask this question at all, and they couldn't help but look stunned! Even the originally nervous mentality was relaxed, because this problem is actually not a secret, as long as you have some knowledge of the officialdom environment, you can guess it!
Sure enough, President He said, "My lord, you are asking this to play tricks on the grass people, right? There's no way you don't know this!"
Liu Haojia shook his head with a smile and said, "This official will definitely not play tricks on people! And the official does know the approximate number, but he doesn't know the specifics, so I have to ask!"
President He looked at the faces of the people around him who were crying, but no one objected, so he said, "My lord, if you want to know something specific, then the grass people can tell your lord!" The grass farmers don't know about the situation of other families, but as far as the grass people's business is concerned, they can get about 30% of the net profit, and sometimes it is even less than 20%!"

Liu Haojia was stunned when he heard this! Because in his impression, it is definitely impossible for these merchants to get all the profits, he thought that he could get half of the profits at worst, but where did he think that these merchants would only get such a small profit! So he subconsciously said, "Impossible, right? How can it be so little? Don't lie to me!"
President Ho smiled wryly and said, "Why deceive your adults about such things? If you want to know the exact number, you can find out!"
Now that Liu Haojia had been completely aroused, he nodded and said, "Then please ask President He to explain it in detail to this official!"
So President Ho opened the conversation and began to speak, he said, "Adults have a business in their families, and they should know that the profits of a store must be distributed according to the number of shares! For example, there are many people's shares in the grass people's business, and the dividends of these shares alone account for a large proportion!"
Liu Haojia smiled and said, "These shares are probably the kind that didn't pay for it, right?"
President Ho nodded with a wry smile and said, "Your Excellency is right! These shares account for more than 30% of the people's livelihood, but in fact, when distributing profits, they are calculated according to 40%!"
Liu Haojia nodded sympathetically
She's got it. This is the encroachment of the official standard on the merchant in the feudal era! In any dynasty, officials have more power than a merchant can contend with! The so-called "Broken Family Mansion Yin, Destroying the County Order" is not a joke, but a real uncle description!
Since you have such a big right, you must always use the right to seek some benefits! Especially when the Ming officials are so low, the officials naturally try their best to open up the source for themselves! Among them, investing in shops is a very good way!
When officials are in office, they often choose a shop with very good business, drop the symbolic silver and say that they are buying shares, or they do not even give out the symbolic silver, and then rightfully occupy a large number of shares in the shop.
Whether this act of occupying shares is a short-term or long-term act depends on the integrity of the official. Of course, this also has to do with their location!
Normally, officials leave office and then withdraw their shares. Of course, in many cases, merchants are required to return it with real money, even if they didn't spend a penny when they bought shares! They are doing this to make room for their successors! After all, everyone sits in the same position, and the vision is similar! The business that the previous official fancied, the next official is also likely to fancy it!
But if this official is promoted and transferred not too far, it will be very troublesome! For example, if this official becomes the prefect of the province by the county order of the provincial capital, it is equivalent to staying in the provincial capital and not moving the place! Then he is likely to continue this share.
When the new county order arrives, either pick another merchant, or ask the same merchant to take another share! There are not many such officials, but definitely no less! This puts a heavy burden on the merchants! But on the other hand, with such a person, merchants can also get some benefits with the help of the government, but it is relatively few! xь.
President Ho then continued, "In addition to the distribution of shares, there is another problem, that is, the annual profit is not fixed, sometimes more, sometimes less, but the share dividend distributed to them is indispensable! Even if you lose money this year, you still have to distribute the dividends that you should share!"
