1092. Be friends with Gao Pingzhi
For Qi Guo, they are willing to spend this money, and they feel that this money is worth it, after all, they can become friends with Gao Pingzhi, and the benefits they get are far more than the value of the money itself.
Qi Guo is willing to spend money, and Li Ming doesn't care about the size of the loss, anyway, it's not his own money.
The money Gao Pingzhi got from Li Ming can allow him to live a life of drunken gold, but once he falls into this drunken life of gold, I am afraid it will be a little difficult to get out.
However, the discrepancies of these money are normal, so Gao Pingzhi is also relieved and happy, after all, in Gao Pingzhi's opinion, this is his income in accordance with the rules.
Tonight, Gao Pingzhi called Li Ming to the largest restaurant in Xinzheng City and opened a private room.
Gao Pingzhi, who had money, was not stingy, he looked at Li Ming and said: "If it weren't for you, brother, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to enjoy such a life!" ”
"Brother, what you said there, you are the Zhongqing of Handi, the official worship of the imperial history, the number three person in the court, why is it difficult to live a life of drunkenness?" Li Ming looked at Gao Pingzhi and said.
Gao Pingzhi sighed, then looked at Li Ming and said: "This Han land, it's not your Qi country, you Qi people are all in business, so you have money under your hands, so where are your officials, life is very good!" ”
"But our Korean land, it's not like this, although our Korean land is located in a place where the four directions are accessible, but it is also a place where soldiers must fight four battles!"
"Therefore, there are very few businessmen, who come to us to do business, or rather, merchants come to us to do business, and they can't bring them any benefits at all!"
"And the business of Han Di is monopolized by those few people, and I can't start doing business even if I want to!" Gao Pingzhi sighed and said.
The business in South Korea is monopolized by a few families, and the merchants from outside come here and have nothing to plot, or often lose money.
If it is an era of peace, this place must be a place of developed commerce, after all, the Quartet is accessible, but this is a world of great contention, and the enemies of the Quartet want to seize the things and territories here, and this place has fallen into an era of perennial war.
When Shen Buxi was in power, when Han Shijie was the general, South Korea was strong for a while, and none of the surrounding countries dared to compete with South Korea, and South Korea's commerce was also developed for a period of time at that time.
Later, Shen Busheng was killed, Han Shijie was defeated by Wei Wuji, South Korea's national strength suddenly declined, and the countries were eyeing each other again.
South Korea's budding commerce has gradually disappeared, but fortunately, Korea is located in the fertile Central Plains, and the land is the best land in Kyushu.
So they farmed, but to ensure their own food and clothing, but also to ensure the Han army's food and grass, although they can't make life luxurious, but food and clothing can be guaranteed, which is already very good.
In this world of great controversy, how many countries can allow their subjects to live in luxury? Even the wealthy Qi State did not dare to guarantee it.
Because of the land, although the Korean land is not rich, the grain and grass are relatively sufficient.
This also allows poor and weak South Korea to have a place in this world of great contention.
did not completely perish, and later Wei Wuji united with Han Zhao Wei to form the Three Jins, and Han Di's complexion changed slightly.
Now there are many businessmen from outside to Korea, and Li Ming came from afar and was not suspected, and it is also for this reason that many businessmen from other places have come to Korea recently.
Although there are many foreign businessmen, the business is not easy to do, because there are several nobles who have been monopolizing the business in Korea.
If the locals want to do business, they need to break the monopoly, and to break the monopoly, they must have the help of businessmen from other places, and secondly, they must have strong funds or have a deep backstage.
But then again, why should outsiders help you? Obviously, it is better for outsiders to do business with those monopoly nobles than to support a new person, after all, to support a new person, you need a lot of investment, and the other party is likely to be ungrateful, and the profit may not be more than with these old monopoly nobles, even if it is more, it may not be able to go there.
What Li Ming is doing now is to support Gao Pingzhi, but in the process of supporting, Li Ming has been in a state of loss.
Of course, this is the actual situation, but in the eyes of outsiders, they are making a lot of money, and the business run by Li Ming is also the simplest foreign trade business.
Things from the Han land were transported to the Qi country, and the things from the Qi country were transported to the Han land.
With the help of Gao Pingzhi, Li Ming transported things smoothly all the way, and it was easy to transport them to Qi State, after all, Gao Pingzhi was the Zhongqing of Handi, and the three kingdoms were united into Jin, and Gao Pingzhi was the Zhongqing of Handi, although the right to speak was only in Handi, but the official title was to Wei and Zhao, which was universal, of course, only an official title.
And the little officials below face Gao Pingzhi, this kind of Zhongqing-level figure, and will give some green accommodation.
However, Li Ming can't just do this one industry, because if he wants to support Gao Pingzhi, he must expand the industry, such as opening a pawn shop, a restaurant and a series of things.
And these things all give Gao Pingzhi dividends, and Gao Pingzhi's responsibility is only to protect these physical stores that can be green and smooth and open smoothly.
However, these industries are all monopoly industries, Li Ming opened, basically suppressed by others, if it weren't for Gao Ping's ambition, I'm afraid it would have been closed long ago, but the loss is still a loss.
After all, he didn't make much money, and he had to give Gao Pingzhi a huge dividend every month, telling him that he had earned a lot.
The only thing that can bring profits is the foreign trade industry, but a foreign trade transaction, it takes a long time, after all, from Xinzheng to Yingqiu, to Yanjing This is a very huge distance.
Li Ming came to Xinzheng to trade, and it was only a trade.
Li Ming looked at Gao Pingzhi and nodded, he agreed with Gao Pingzhi's words, if it weren't for his abundant funds, how could Gao Pingzhi go into business?
Of course, since it has been done, it is necessary to make a profit as the goal, although it is a loss now, even if the loss is more, as long as the plan of Qi is completed, it will be profitable in the eyes of Qi State, but in the economy, Li Ming also wants to make a profit, after all, if there is a profit, he can extract some from it.
Li Ming looked at Gao Pingzhi and said, "Brother, what are you talking about?" If it weren't for my brother's help, how could I, Li Ming, open a store in Xinzheng and do business? ”
Gao Pingzhi can't go into business and make money without Li Ming, but if Li Ming doesn't have Gao Pingzhi, I'm afraid he won't be able to open a store.
