Chapter 646: Competing with the People for Profit (The Third Update, 2/3 for the Alliance Leader's Autumn Night's Favorite Reading Book)

"Every province has to open a branch, Lord Wang...... This ......" Mu Tianbo was speechless for a while.

In the past two years, Daming has set up three new provinces outside the Guan, Northeast China, Menggu and North Korea, and these three provinces have a complex population and a vast area, and there are no less than 20 new provinces.

In this way, the prince has to open more than 100 branch numbers of money banks, and each bank needs to purchase shops, train or collect personnel, and have the necessary silver reserves.

How much does it cost and how much does it cost? It will not be enough to invest all the five million taels of silver in the second half of the year.

And is Qianzhuang really worth such a big investment as Xishan Shanghe?

They can't figure it out, at least with their current thinking mode, they can't understand Liu Hongji's thoughts outside of the Ming Dynasty.

"Yes, it is to open one in every prefecture, this is only preliminary, and when there are sufficient funds and manpower in the future, it will be opened in the state and county." Liu Hong gradually swore without surprise.

What are the advantages? That is, your silver ticket needs to go to the capital to redeem, Lao Tzu's ticket number is opened in your county, and the reputation and strength are only better than yours, who do you say the customer will deposit the silver to?

What's more, Liu Hongjian also wanted to cancel the handling fee of this bank deposit business, but he didn't mention it because he thought that it was too unacceptable for British citizens.

Rao is like this, Zhang Weixian and Mu Tianbo both have bitter gourd faces, and they still think that they can share dividends today and take the more than 200,000 taels of silver home.

Unexpectedly, not only will I not be able to get last year's dividends, but I will probably not be able to get the dividends this year and next year.

According to the documents signed that year, although Liu Hongjian was not the person who spoke about Xishan Shanghe, he had the right to decide on a large and small affairs, and according to later generations, the royal family was the chairman of the board of directors, and he was the CEO.

And the chairman is very sensible and busy, Xishan merchants belong to the private property of the royal family, and the dividends are extra money for the father-in-law and brother-in-law.

"You don't need to look like a mourner, when did this king lose money in business?" Liu Honggradually knew that it was a little difficult for these 'small shareholders' to accept, and comforted.

Zhang Weixian pursed his lips, and said in his heart I believe you are a ghost, will you do business?

If you really know how to do business, why are Xishan businessmen still losing money after a year of co-operation?

"Confucius once said that if you put a long line to catch a big fish, this king promises that this money bank will definitely not lose money in the future." Liu Hong gradually said again.

As soon as he finished speaking, Mu Tianbo, the prince of Qianguo, also began to pout, because Confucius had never said it at all, so the prince was just talking nonsense.

"Ahem-I remember, at the beginning of your joining the Xishan Commercial Cooperation, this king said that although the Xishan Commercial Cooperation is profitable, it is the ultimate essence to share the worries of the court and seek benefits for the people of the Ming Dynasty.

Lao Zhang, Lao Qian, and Lao Liu are all nobles of the country, and you should think about the overall situation. Liu Hong coughed gradually and decided to change the method.

Although he has absolute decision-making power over Xishan Shanghe, after all, these are the ones who do practical things, and he doesn't want these capable generals to work with resentment.

After that, Liu Hong gradually started the big flicker mode, based on the Daming Society and the welfare of all the people in the world, preaching the importance of the bank to them, and drawing a blueprint for the future, which stunned the three of them.

In the end, the three of them didn't know if they understood, but they all agreed anyway, after all, the three of them were somewhat conscious, otherwise they would not have scattered their wealth to participate in fundraising when the court was embarrassed.

In addition, although Liu Hongjian often speaks in a different tone, he is never ambiguous in major matters.

"Then it is decided, resting with the country is not only to enjoy the blessings of the country, but also to do a part for the country at a critical moment, and this king has thanked you here.

But you can't become a fat man by eating in one bite, this money village will start from Liangjing, the north will return to Lao Zhang, and there will be Brother Lao Liu and Brother Mu in the south.

Later, you can go to the treasury and receive fifty thousand taels of silver, and take care of your own expenses first. Liu Hong gradually said again.

After all, they are all dragging their families, and it is impossible for Liu Hong to make people hungry.

"Hey! What else do you receive, the family has enough money to eat, everything is based on the overall situation first, isn't it Brother Mu? "They have all experienced the most bitter time of Daming, and now this is nothing.

And it was only in the middle of last year that it was red, and there were 200,000 taels.

Liu Hongji's patient explanation is enough to show that they are not outsiders, and after the righteousness is known, the three lords are very happy.

And Gu Datong and Jiang Yongmin have no opinions, these two have been in business for generations, and they have no background, and the reason why they can become big depends on their vision.

Not to mention that Liu Hong is gradually gracious to them, that is, Liu Hong's endless means of making money are enough to make them believe that it is always right to follow him.

"It's this Wansheng Money Village, this name is too earthy, I have to change it." Liu Hong gradually frowned and began to use his brain.

“emmmm…… Why don't you just call it Fuming Money, right? Liu Hong gradually said with a flash of inspiration.

How dare a few shareholders say no, anyway, it's just a name, whether it's Wansheng Money Bank, or Fuming Money Bank, the one who can earn money is a good money bank.

"Lord Wang, there is still something that the Lord needs to know.

Since our Xishan business cooperation has become bigger, there are many officials in the court who are dissatisfied, saying that we are competing with the people for profit. The British public is worried.

"Brother Tianyou, do you still need the prince to know about this? A bunch of shameless pen sticks, don't worry about them. Before Liu Hongjian could speak, Mu Tianbo slapped the table and said, obviously this matter made him very troubled.

Why those courtiers opposed the imposition of commercial taxes, he Mu Tianbo, as a person with vested interests, naturally knew, it was nothing more than the imperial court that moved their interests, and what else did they say to compete with the people.

Competing with the people for profit, this people is not the people of the world, but the group of gentry and merchants behind them.

Now that Liu Hong and Zhu Cihong are cooperating internally and externally, fortunately, the business tax collection is not on the right track.

However, these shameless guys saw that the Xishan merchants were doing well and robbed them of their profits, and even impeached them on the grounds that they were the nobles of the country, and did not think about sharing the country's worries and did something to compete with the people.

You say that angry people are not angry, is there such a brazen person in the world?

"Let them be impeached, for if the Holy Lords ignore them, I will lose." Liu Hong gradually became not angry at all, it was a shame to be angry with these guys.

The biggest shareholder behind Xishan Shanghe is the old Zhu family, you said that the emperor robbed you of your silver, and you want to impeach the emperor, is it too long to be idle?

Liu Hongji's attitude made several people very comfortable, after all, the sky fell and the prince was on top of it, so they didn't need to bother.

At this time, Mu Tianbo and Zhang Weixian glanced at each other, as if they were asking for each other's opinions, and seeing Zhang Weixian nodding slightly, Mu Tianbo stabilized his mind and looked at Liu Hongjian with his hands.

"Lord, there is one more thing, since we Xishan Shanghe want to open a money village all over the country, we must need a large amount of silver, if the prince can make it clear to the saint to take this errand of the village, the cost of opening the money village will be able to make up for it quickly."
