Chapter 126: Beginning to Have Money
"There is also this kind of statement, because I think the fabric business is not good, but I have complained a few times, but it is not so outrageous as saying that I will quit the industry directly.
Brother, who are you listening to when you say these words?" Zhao Dagui asked with a smile on his face unchanged, and he didn't care.
"Hearsay, hearsay. Wu Jianzhang smiled and said: "If my brother doesn't have the idea of quitting the fabric business, it would be great, if my brother doesn't lead this industry, it will be boring."
By the way, I have 10,000 pieces of foreign cloth in my hand, and I want to use this cloth to replace part of the money for buying and selling land, how about it?"
"Oh, what kind of cloth is in my brother's hands, how do you want to replace it?"
"This is a high-quality British natural market cloth, and when my brother sold the inventory to Yisheng Hong, he bought it at the price of three yuan per piece of cloth.
How about I sell it for two pieces of cloth for two pieces of seventy-one cloth?"
"Well, it's not good. Zhao Dagui thought about it, then shook his head: "When I sold that batch of cloth, what I sold was actually the boss of the entire business world, so I sold it higher, and my brother didn't know it."
That kind of natural market cloth, I bought it from the British, and a piece of cloth is definitely less than two pieces of five, and it still needs more or less, and it can even be exchanged for tea or raw silk.
Your two dollars and seven dollars per horse actually cost me three or four hundred dollars. ”
"I know that my brother has a loss. In this way, I will sell this 10,000 pieces of cloth to you as two or 5 horses, and then the price of the 70 acres of land, even if it is 52,000 yuan, I will use cash to make up the rest of the money, how about it?" Wu Jianzhang asked, staring at Zhao Dagui for a moment.
Zhao Dagui hesitated for a moment, seemed to seriously think about the stakes, and then looked at Xu Wenqiang secretly, until Xu Wenqiang glanced very indistinctly, and then nodded hesitantly.
"If Brother Wu really insists, then I can only agree, who let me get close to my brother.
However, this can be regarded as a huge concession, and my brother should remember it. ”
"That's, I understand. Wu Jianzhang nodded, hehe, but there was some inexplicable helplessness in his laughter.
The two decided on the details of the land sale, and Wu Jianzhang paid 10,000 horses of natural cloth and 27,000 yuan in cash for the 70 acres of land and the buildings on it, and obtained the right to use it for 30 years.
Since Zhao Dagui acquired the land north of Shanghai, he has sold a lot of land one after another, some of which are still very expensive, but this is still the highest single price business.
After Wu Jianzhang negotiated the business, he chatted with Zhao Dagui for a while, and finally reluctantly said goodbye and left.
"Owner, this Wu Jianzhang is not just coming for these places. When Wu Jianzhang left, Xu Wenqiang said to Zhao Dagui.
"It's one thing for him to buy land, it's another thing to get to my bottom when he comes here.
This business world is full of smart people, you can see from all kinds of data that the future of the foreign cloth business is worrying, Wu Jianzhang is an old business, and naturally I can see my intentions from the clues. Zhao Dagui nodded and said.
"Then what should I do?" After all, Xu Wenqiang was in contact with the business world for the first time, and it was the first time he set foot in such a huge business, so he had no confidence at all.
"What to do, cold salad. Zhao Dagui couldn't help but shake his head, "This old Wu Billin Aqin is shrewd, and wants to use some fabric to find out my opinion on the foreign cloth business, if I am still willing to accept foreign cloth, it means that I am still optimistic about foreign cloth; if I am not willing to accept foreign cloth, it means that I am not optimistic about foreign cloth business."
However, this person has always deducted the rope, and he wants to use more than 20,000 yuan of business to find out my details, but he is not thinking.
Our noble firm hasn't been in the foreign cloth business for a while, so it's time to replenish some goods, and let the shopkeepers of the firm find a way to sell it in Huzhou or Hangzhou.
It's just that the people in this business world are more shrewd than the other, and there are many ways to probe people's hearts.
We want to kill everyone at once and dominate the business world, and we have a long way to go. ”
Xu Wenqiang nodded, but he felt a lot of pressure in his heart.
It turned out that Zhao Dagui had a long talk with Xu Wenqiang before, and felt that Xu Wenqiang had good mathematical skills, was also sensitive to the economy, and was a good economist, so he pulled Xu Wenqiang to Dagui Commercial Bank as the head of the secretary office, and asked him to help him rise while the foreign cloth business was up and down.
Xu Wenqiang was reused after he arrived at Dagui Commercial Bank, and he was originally a little fluttering, but after the meeting between Wu Jianzhang and Zhao Dagui, he saw that the two tested each other without a trace, judged each other's intentions from the slightest clue, and grasped people's hearts meticulously.
Wu Jianzhang went back from Zhao Dagui and discussed with the housekeeper for a while, wondering whether Zhao Dagui was not optimistic about the foreign cloth business, or whether he deliberately misled himself.
At the beginning of this day, Zhao Dagui suddenly found that the liquidity in his hand gradually increased.
During this period, because of the popularity of trade in goods, Shanghai's trade was divided into two types: trade in goods and cash trade, of which the scale of the former was several times larger than that of the latter.
Because they were unwilling to engage in extremely risky trade in goods, the business of the Dagui trading houses shrank for a time, but with the passage of time, the trading houses gradually gained a foothold in cash trade, and now they occupy more than 80 percent of the cash trade.
Although the total amount of cash trade is not large today, by controlling costs and actively developing peripheral markets such as Huzhou, Dagui Commercial Bank still earns a lot of money, and can make a net profit of about 30,000 yuan every month.
Compared with the boom in material trade, this is only a small business, far less than the income in August and September last year, but after all, it is quite reliable and stable cash income.
In addition, the land that Zhao Dagui had previously developed on the north and south banks of the Wusong River also began to bring him a lot of profits.
It turned out that the Dagui Trading House owned a large amount of land on both sides of the Wusong River, and invited the British to build Western buildings, the roads were clean, and the buildings were solid and beautiful, so that many Western merchants were willing to buy them.
Taking the opportunity of Qichang Foreign Bank spending 52,000 yuan to buy 70 acres of land, a number of foreign firms and businessmen were willing to buy the right to lease houses, and the firm sold nearly 300 acres of land and attached buildings in a very short period of time.
At this time, the average price of land and real estate in the concession was about 800 yuan per mu, of which Zhao Dagui received 300 yuan as the rental price of the land, and Zhao Dagui received 250 yuan for the other 500 yuan, and Bafur shared the remaining 250 yuan with several British officers (the Indians actually did not get much money).
In other words, for every acre of land transferred, Zhao Dagui can get a net income of about 550 yuan.
Through this real estate development model, Zhao Dagui has successively obtained a net income of more than 150,000 yuan.
"While being a land provider, I can also share the money with real estate developers, which is a good money. Zhao Dagui couldn't help but sigh, and felt that some kind of resentment in modern times was satisfied.
