Chapter 206: I Can't Hold It

Liu Chun underestimated Zhu Yuanzhang's murderous intentions, but Lao Zhu did not underestimate Liu Chun's ability.

In order to witness an unprecedented war, Lao Zhu gave the officials a holiday in advance, and went to Suzhou without tirelessness. At this moment, he can only say two words: it's worth it!

"Prince, how much does it cost to fight a big war?"

"This ...... The war cost countless amounts of food and wages, and there are tens of thousands of dead and wounded, and the cost is certainly not low, and in some cases, it can even empty the treasury. ”

"Hahaha!"

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed loudly, he stretched out a finger, "This is the cost of the first battle of fishing, that's all, a million yuan!" ”

Lao Zhu didn't talk nonsense, of course, the cost of the war was astronomical, but the problem was that grain and grass were requisitioned, and people and livestock were also requisitioned, and even iron-making weapons had special government-run workshops.

If it all is converted into money, it is more than ten million.

But just look at the real money taken out by the household department, converted into one million taels, after all, there is still a seizure after the victory! The place where you need to spend money is the horn, the tendon, the lacquer, the sulfur, the saltpeter, the silk linen and other things, and then there is the military salary, in fact, the military salary can also be used to offset the grain, but it is a reward, you must give money, if you dare to take the treasure money to fool you, you will be spitting.

Listening to Zhu Yuanzhang's accounting, Zhu Biao suddenly felt a thrill!

A great war that wiped out the Northern Yuan Dynasty was a fishing sea, and the treasury contributed only one million yuan.

What is Yoo Chun doing?

In one day's hard work, he smashed out 1 million guan, although he came back 800,000 guan, but he directly lost 200,000 guan, and he didn't even blink an eye! This courage is much stronger than Song Guogong Feng Sheng and Liang Guogong Lanyu!

Compared with the previous few days, there are hundreds of thousands of taels of back and forth every day, and Suzhou Qianzhuang is also gritting its teeth to support it.

If this is put on the battlefield, it will be at least a 100,000-person fight!

Check it out!

Suzhou City, which has no gunsmoke, has staged such a big drama!

You dare to say that it is not good-looking, and I will smack you in the face!

Thinking of this, Zhu Biao's face changed.

"Father, do you think Liu Chun can really win?"

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted, "He can win the best, if he can't win, I will move troops, arrest all the big businessmen, confiscate all the family property, and confiscate all of them!" ”

Lao Zhu's idea of playing tricks came up again, if the wealth of Suzhou was swept away, maybe the empty money would come back.

"By the way, I not only want to take the money away, but also let Liu Chun take the blame and use his head to appease the hearts of the people of Suzhou!"

Zhu Biao didn't know what to say, "Father, why do you always say that you will never do something?" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang was also angry, "Do you also think that I am talking and playing!" Tell you, I won't kill that kid, but I can't let him make waves outside. His ability is too great, I want him to enter the palace as a eunuch, and he will always be under my nose! ”

Lao Zhu mentioned this, his face was relaxed, and he smiled happily, Zhu Biao can be regarded as seeing through, his father's greatest pleasure now is to ravage Liu Chun, I hope you kid will be more angry, if not, I can only see you in the palace next time......

Liu Chun, who is about to become a possible eunuch, is in high spirits at the moment, and he gives orders to Xu Zengshou, "You go, mortgage the 800,000 yuan, borrow a batch of Suzhou money banknotes, and then add the ones in our hands, continue to smash, smash hard!" Tomorrow, according to the seventy-five fold, smash 1.1 million! ”

Xu Zengshou is crazy, borrowing banknotes from others, as long as he pays interest, and then sells them at a discount, two days of hard work, one million guan, and at most 500,000 guan.

Half of the money evaporated directly, he Xu Zengshou had seen money, but he had never seen such a spending!

"I said Brother Liu, can we calm down, you do this, or in a few days, there will be no money left in our hands."

Liu Chun didn't care, "What are you afraid of, I've already sent a letter to Master Ru, if not, I'll borrow three or five million yuan from the Royal Bank to see who can beat whom!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Xu Zengshou lay down directly, he held the table with his hand, tried hard twice, and couldn't get up.

"That, Brother Liu, is it too late for me to quit now?"

How could Liu Chun let him go, "You quit, the money you invested before has been lost, don't you feel distressed?" ”

Xu Zengshou simply sat on the ground, leaning on the leg of the chair, and said helplessly: "I'm distressed? I'm afraid I'll lose my head now...... Do you know what you're doing, you also said that you borrowed money from the Royal Bank, it was His Majesty's money, and if you lose it, not only will you be doomed, but I will also be unlucky. I, how can I be so unlucky! ”

Xu Zengshou sighed that he was careless in making friends, and mixed up with Liu Chun, and sooner or later he would lose his life.

"Oh, Your Majesty's money is owed!" Liu Chun seemed to have just remembered, he reached out and grabbed Xu Zengshou's clothes, and wanted to pull him up, "Let's go, let's go to see Your Majesty, ask Your Majesty to join the shares, and partner with us to do big things!" ”

"You, you go die!"

Xu Zengshou pushed Liu Chun away, turned his head over, and simply didn't look at him, he was afraid of being scared to death.

At this moment, suddenly someone came in outside, the footsteps were very light, with a fragrance, it was Xu Miaojin.

She saw Xu Zengshou at a glance, and couldn't help but say, "Fourth brother, what are you doing sitting on the ground?" ”

Xu Zengshou finally turned his head, "Sister, you are here, where have you been these days, Liu Chun is crazy!" He is now losing hundreds of thousands of dollars a day, and our money is going to be lost. ”

When Xu Miaojin heard this, he suddenly turned his face to Liu Chun and blamed: "Why did you lose so little?" Are you worried about the money, don't listen to my brother, just smash it at half price! ”

Bang!

Xu Zengshou was so frightened that he stood up, but he forgot that he was sitting on the ground, his body straightened up, and his head just touched the corner of the table.

But even so, it hurt so much that tears flowed.

"Fourth brother, are you okay?"

Xu Miaojin went to help Xu increase his life.

How do you know that the fourth brother, who has always loved her, pushed Xu Miaojin's hand aside.

"Third sister, brother begs you, let's not mess with this kid, I'm really afraid of when, I'll lose all of us!"

Listening to the fourth brother's heartfelt wail, Xu Miaojin suddenly covered his mouth and chuckled, laughing flamboyantly.

"Brother, following Mr. Liu will only make money, not lose money! Let me tell you one thing, the salt merchants in Yangzhou have decided. ”

"Decide what?"

"Decided to join the Royal Bank system. They will exchange the Suzhou banknotes in their hands for the new Royal Bank currency...... My little sister has been running this matter for the past few days, and she has lived up to her trust and finally succeeded. So next, let's see the fall of Suzhou Qianzhuang! ”

Xu Zengshou was confused, what the hell is going on?

Liu Chun laughed loudly, very satisfied, this is his third killer move!

Li Qi made a bold statement, saying that it could last for a month or two, could it be that Suzhou Qianzhuang has such strong financial resources?

Yes and no!

A small city of Suzhou, how much currency can be accommodated, even if it is rich in silk, is still not good.

Therefore, before the establishment of Suzhou Qianzhuang, Li Shanchang used his power in salt affairs to exchange for a large number of Suzhou banknotes, which expanded the business of Suzhou Qianzhuang by more than five times at once! And it is hooked with the most important table salt, if he can really give Li Shan a long time, he may not be able to argue with Lao Zhu!

Who said that the Korean public must be tied up?

Do you know that Zhu Chongba knows that the opening of the Chinese method was designed by my Lao Li!

With your rat eyes, where can you see the greasy nature of opening the Chinese law, you still think it is a very good decree, the court does not need to pay, you can feed millions of soldiers on the nine sides. But have you ever thought about it, the opening of the Chinese law is calculated based on the three years of Hongwu as the base book.

What was the price of food at that time, and how much was the number of people in the Ming Dynasty? Also, how many military households have escaped from the nine sides?

At the beginning of the establishment of the Kaizhong Law, it was true that businessmen could not make money, and even had the possibility of losing money. But as grain prices fell and Shangtun was implemented, salt merchants began to make profits.

Moreover, in the twenty years of peace, the population of the Ming Dynasty has almost doubled, but the military households on the nine sides, because the conditions are too poor, the population has not increased, not to mention, they continue to flee.

Back and forth, more salt was needed, and less food was needed to supply the nine sides. In other words, salt merchants can gain exponential market share at a fraction of the cost.

Although there are officials who share the fat and fill their own pockets, in the past ten years, the salt merchants of the Ming Dynasty have become the group of people whose wealth has grown the fastest.

They have a lot of money in their hands, and they need to travel long distances, and they carry a lot of money, and they are not safe. With treasure money, the fluctuations are too great, and before you wait for the place, the money will depreciate, and you can't do business at all.

Therefore, Li Shanchang prescribed the right medicine and asked them to deposit money in Suzhou Bank, which is different from the Royal Bank and can keep it secret...... And Li Shanchang is confident that with Zhu Yuanzhang's economic ability, he can't see the problem.

When the Li family is tied to the whole table salt, it is the real peace of mind and not afraid of anything.

"Everyone, you are all my father's former subordinates, others come to squeeze, you, you shouldn't come!" Li Qi said with blame.

More than a dozen representatives of salt merchants looked at each other, and the one at the head snorted, "Master Ma, we put our money in the Bank of Suzhou, first, we feel safe, and second, we maintain the value and stability." But before we entered Suzhou, we heard that your money could no longer hold on, and some people sold it at a 20% discount! Tsk, one million pounds of one day's work will lose 200,000 pounds! The money we put in the bank, won't we lose so much? ”

Li Qi said categorically: "Don't doubt the credit of our Suzhou Qianzhuang, how much it should be, or how much!" ”

"Happy!" The leader laughed and said, "Li Fuma, since this is the case, we don't want interest, so please return the money to us at the normal price." The family is in a hurry, today we are going to take the money back to Yangzhou, the carriage and horses are ready, please! ”

He said with his fists clenched, his attitude was extremely resolute, and everyone else did the same thing, obviously, they came together to force the palace.

Li Qi only felt that his eyes were black, and his legs trembled, why couldn't he hold it anymore?
