As long as the Mo family agrees to a part of the loan support, Zhongshan's restoration of the country is considered to be half of the success in Lechi's opinion.

Now that Zhao's civil strife is imminent, once Wei intervenes, the restoration of Zhongshan will be considered a stable matter.

As for some agreements with Zhongshan, the level of the orchestra is not enough, but Shi doesn't care whether the monarch of Zhongshan is trustworthy after the restoration of the country.

Restored from the territory of Wei and sandwiched between the territory of Zhao, Hengshui is only a few hundred miles away from Handan and not far from the capital of Yan.

In addition to sticking to the righteousness of non-attack, there are very few ways out for Zhongshan State, and the only one that may support it is Chu State, but it is too far away to have some lip service at most.

Moreover, this time it is appropriate to pull the world's wealthy businessmen to carry out venture capital together, dare not support it, these businessmen will burst out with the power to make the monarchs of various countries fearful - the monarch businessmen who do not recognize the requirements of capital will find a way to overthrow him, and there are so many people in the public family, Zhongshan Huan Gong does not want to be the monarch recognized by capital, and some people rush to be it.

The consequence may be that the kings of various large countries begin to be wary of the power of merchants and implement a policy of strict prohibition on merchants, which is equivalent to forcing the capital of the world to the side of Sishang. Capital has no legs, but businessmen do, and they will have feet to vote for which side.

Shi has already made contact with the orchestra pit, and the rest of the matter can be sent to Zhongshan Country as a plenipotentiary representative of the Mo family.

One is to provide military assistance, and the other is to negotiate various conditions with Zhongshan Jun.

…………

After more than a month, the pottery mound in the world.

The big merchants from Luoyi, Anyi, Linzi and even Chu gathered in a wide courtyard, and many people exchanged ears.

Since the Mo family began to take root in Sishang and began to use tax exemption and other conditions to open up the markets of Yue, Chu and even Baiyue, Taoqiu has gathered speculative businessmen from all over the world.

A new type of joint-stock company model has emerged in Sishang and Taoqiu, and many Mohist-led companies outside Sishang have begun to make profits, and many have invested large sums of money.

It's not that you can't invest elsewhere, but it's that the profits elsewhere are not high.

The land was opened to buy and sell, that is, an area near Sishang, the land of the Song State had begun to be annexed, and a large number of landless people fled to Sishang to either reclaim or work, and some small nobles of the Song State turned into operational landlords, and it was difficult for merchants to sell even if they wanted to buy land for profit.

As for other places, it is fine to buy land, but if you buy land to operate, it is really not much profit. Unless it is close to Jishui, Surabaya, Heshui, Yishui and other rivers, and the purchase of land attracts fugitive farmers, and the indigo, cotton, potatoes, and grain are planted in rotation, which can be sold nearby, otherwise the land elsewhere can only be divided into seals, and the profit of buying and selling is not high.

However, such as the land of the Yue Kingdom, the monopoly trade of the Baiyue Barbarian Land, the shipping trade, and the sugar trade, the Mo family was open to allowing merchants from all over the world to invest, and these trades were extremely profitable every year.

In particular, some people began to build cities at the mouth of the Pearl River, where they captured the Baiyue and Nanhai generations as "slaves" for cultivation and reclamation, and relied on shipping to transport back many teas, cane sugar, and some spices that were unique to the tropics in Sishang for profit.

With the production of some luxury goods such as glass, the habit of pearl and jade for currency listing has gradually changed.

The development of the commodity economy and the beginning of activities such as the minting of bronze cannons in various countries led to a growing shortage of metal money. The banknotes of Sishang are in circulation, but they are also in the eastern part of the Song Kingdom, the Sishang Kingdom, the Yue Kingdom and the Chu Kingdom.

Gold was still used as the settlement currency for bulk goods, and silver, which was originally used to make utensils, began to become a substitute for pearl and jade.

Someone discovered gold mines in the south where the Chu State and the Yue Kingdom were handed over, and they became rich overnight, and gold became a coveted commodity for many people.

Perhaps elsewhere, the blood of the nobility is still a status symbol.

But in Sishang and other places, having money is equivalent to owning most things, except for some industries controlled by the Mo family, almost all of them can be bought, and they will not deprive merchants of their property at will, which makes a large number of merchants in the world begin to transfer their property to Sishang.

The trading of bulk goods and the shortage of currency have prompted the development of the new thing of "gold bank". Many merchants settle their accounts directly through the bank's bills, and their credit has always been very good, and the merchants are extremely reassured.

Sishang is in a period of rapid development, and many joint-stock industries have been profitable in recent years.

For example, the trade franchise in the Yangyue area south of Yuganshui, which was bought out for 800,000 yuan a year, can return profits far exceeding the interest on loans every year.

For example, in the land auctioned around the mouth of the South China Sea, a large number of local people can be obtained by fraud, semi-coercion, or inducement to work, and by relying on firearms and advanced tools, almost all the costs can be recovered in four or five years, and profits can be made every year.

The large number of people who retired from the righteous division enabled many merchants to organize small armies, numbering more than 100 people, and build a small star-shaped city in some places in the south where slash-and-burn cultivation was still practiced, and they could obtain the trade of deerskins, grain, wine, tung oil, etc., and made great profits.

Under such circumstances, every time there is any wind and grass, it will attract a boom among the merchants gathered in Sishang and Taoqiu.

For example, the gold mine discovered in Yangyu last year, there is already a small Fang country with a bronze civilization, and the people there do not know "righteousness", but there are gold mines, so a gold mining trading company was established to franchise the gold mines there, and the Mo family occupies more than half of the shares.

In just seven or eight days, the merchants of Taoqiu subscribed to the remaining shares, and organized a group of 200 retired landless mercenaries who liked to be full-time mercenaries, and built a city and organized mining there, and within a year they were profitable.

The capital of the merchants began to flow, and under the guidance of the theory of "The Wealth of Nations", the value of capital and hired labor could be appreciated, and merchants from all over the world gathered in Sishang Taoqiu, fantasizing about getting rich overnight.

Getting rich overnight takes a chance.

And the businessmen gathered today have keenly smelled another opportunity to get rich.

Since a few days ago, there has been a rumor in Taoqiu.

Zhao was in turmoil, and many nobles disagreed with Gongzi Zhang's succession to the throne, believing that Gongzi should succeed to the throne. Wei said that Gongzi Dynasty should succeed to the throne, believing that although Gongzi Zhang was the son of Liehou, he was not the son of Zhao Wuhou, and Gongzi Zhang's succession violated the etiquette system.

He also said that the Song State had a bad brother and a vulgar brother, so that there was a rebellion in the ninth generation, so I am afraid that there will be a big chaos in the Zhao State.

After these rumors, there were rumors that the people of Zhongshan wanted to restore the country and urgently needed financial support to buy iron weapons.

For this reason, Zhongshan was willing to come up with policies such as salt monopoly, land purchase, and sale of land occupied by the Wei nobles, in order to be able to provide sufficient financial support.

It's windfall profits.

Almost as soon as the rumor came out, the merchants of Taoqiu became a sensation and inquired whether the matter was true or false.

Some people say that this is absolutely correct, saying that it was said by the son of Le Shu instead of Zhongshan Jun. Who is Leshu? However, the person who led the Zhongshan army to kill the son of Wei Xiang Zhai Huang was later killed by Zhongshan Jun, but his son's status in Zhongshan was obviously not low.

Some people think that they need to wait and see, investment is risky, and they need to be cautious when entering the industry.

But some people feel that wealth and danger are sought, just like gambling on jade, if the jade in Bian He's hand was still a stubborn stone, he spent money to buy it, and now he is in his own hands, how much more than 10,000 times the profit? When the restoration of Zhongshan has been successful, what profit can there be?

There are also some people who are staring at those businessmen who have cooperated with the Mo family many times before, thinking that as long as they become shareholders, they will join themselves, although this interference in the internal affairs of various countries has not been done before, but it is indeed a "strange commodity to live in", once successful, it will be more than a hundred times more profitable.

In case this Zhongshan state affair is like going to the gold mine of Yangyu in Suiyangyu, won't it be regretful to die at that time? As long as these equity bills are not lost, they can be passed on to children and grandchildren.

The aristocracy has a fief, and if the merchant has a share note, it can be regarded as a "plain seal" house.

And today, the Mo family's city Jia Dolphin "just happened" to come to Taoqiu, the city Jia Dolphin is in charge of Jin Xing, everyone knows, and it is a high-level figure of the Mo family, people want to know what the Mo family's attitude is towards this.

However, the city's statement on this sounds ambiguous.

It is only said that the Mo family takes the morality and heavenly will of the Mo family as the highest rules and standards, and supports it if it is in line with the benefits of the people and the increase in the total wealth of the world. If it does not meet the requirements, it will be opposed.

He also said that Zhongshan state affairs, if it is only the restoration of the country, the Mo family does not support or oppose it. But if you can implement some policies that can benefit the people, if Wei can implement them, you will support Wei's actions, because this is in line with righteousness; If the restoration of Zhongshan can implement a policy that benefits the people, it will support the restoration of Zhongshan because it is in line with righteousness.

As for whether the Mo family supports it or not...... But the words are unknown.

However, many people have heard the meaning of the Mo family, because among some previous rumors, there is one that the merchants are not very concerned about - there is a rumor that after Zhongshan Jun lost the country, he learned from the pain, summed up the reason why he lost the country, and decided to change the past.

Before today, this rumor was not of interest to merchants. I am not in Zhongshan Country, it doesn't matter to us whether you have learned from the pain or not, we just need to make a profit.

But with the city of Jia Dolphin coming forward to say such a thing today, the rumor, which was the least concerned by businessmen a few days ago, immediately became priceless.

Shijia didn't say anything, but he said everything, which clearly showed that the Mo family acquiesced to Zhongshan's restoration.

Moreover, a series of events such as Zhao's civil strife, Chu's counterattack against Chen Cai, Wu Qi's entry into Qin, etc., all made businessmen feel that this investment was promising: Wei was finished, even if it was not finished, it was half-crippled, and as long as there was money in Zhongshan's restoration of the country, I am afraid it would be successful.
