Chapter 180: A Rich Man, Difficult to a Man Without Money (4)
"China is loved by the heavens, with its vast territory and abundant products, delicious grains, gorgeous silks, and endless riches buried in the earth beneath our feet: gold, silver, copper, iron, tin, lead, arsenic, phosphorus, carbon...... Everything you need!
The country has been fighting for many years, the treasury is extremely empty, and the people are in urgent need of relief......
As he spoke, Xiao Yi took out a map and waved it gently, marking 28 mineral deposits, distributed all over the Central Plains, all of which were first-class rich ores with large reserves, shallow burials and good fineness.
Xiao Yi sleeps lazily, often dreaming of his hometown, relatives, food, and wine...... and 'fighting' with beautiful women, but I have never dreamed of the Emperor of Heaven, God, Buddha, etc., and dreams are naturally an excuse.
At best, people who have received nine years of compulsory education, three years of cramming education (high school), and four years of sheep-herding education (university) can't build aircraft and artillery, but with the memory of their previous lives, it's okay to mark a few mineral deposits.
Worried that his memory was wrong, Xiao Yi sent an army of diggers, explored all over the place, determined the location of the mineral deposits, and retrieved the ore specimens, and then took out the 'treasure map!' ’
"The reincarnation of Great Sima Xingjun, sure enough, he is blessed by the Emperor of Heaven!"
"Twenty-eight big mines, buried countless good things, this is really rich."
"The minerals of Pingdingshan have allowed the Liang family to seize the opportunity, and we can't fall behind this time!"
………………
The wealthy merchants howled and rushed up, all staring at the treasure map, their eyes were full of greed, the matter that Da Sima was the son of the Emperor of Heaven was already a household name, and the matter of Runan County was the best proof.
Today's Pingdingshan, thousands of trucks of ore are produced every day, marketing the states and counties of the Central Plains, and even Jiangdong, Jingzhou, and Yizhou have businesses, and the Liang family, who is responsible for sales and transportation, does not know how much money they make, and how many people are jealous!
The businessmen also speculated that Da Sima had 'good things' in his hands, but he didn't think that he would be so bold and take out twenty-eight mines at once.
Someone must have asked, Xiao Yi knows the location of the mine, and he has an army of diggers, why not dig and make a fortune by himself, why take out the 'treasure map' and share it with the merchants?
The reason is also very simple: mining is of course a lot of money, and a lot of manpower, material and financial resources must be invested in the early stage, but now the treasury is empty, the soldiers are tired, and the people are exempted from conscription.
What's more, the ancients said well: 'The husband is not guilty, but he is guilty,' the twenty-eight mineral deposits together, that is the gold and silver sea, I don't know how many people are red, even if Xiao Yi is in power, he does not dare to swallow it alone, which has caused countless disasters!
What's more, the people are in turmoil, the imperial court is in urgent need of a lot of money and grain, although the income from the mine is huge, but the cycle is too long, Xiao Yi does not have this time!
Therefore, after repeated consideration, I still took out the treasure map and shared it with the wealthy businessmen all over the world, which can not only borrow their strength to comprehensively develop the mineral deposits, quickly enrich the treasury, but also be able to balance the interests and avoid becoming the target of the public!
Of course, Xiao Yi did not give all the truth, and left a few rich mines, ready to be used as heirlooms, in case the descendants of the Xiao family are not angry, and lose the country laid by their ancestors, there are still a few mineral deposits, I dare not say that there is a comeback, at least there is no problem in buying a house, buying land, and marrying a daughter-in-law......
Seeing that the greed of the merchants had risen, Xiao Yi put the treasure map into his arms again, and then waved his hand, and several students stepped forward, spread out a large piece of white silk cloth, and prepared pen and ink......
The mine was found by itself, and it is no problem to take it out and share it, and the businessmen have to be interesting, not to mention that there are only 28 mines, and there are four or five hundred people attending the banquet.
"The villain is willing to donate 500,000 yuan of money and 20,000 pieces of grain for the national treasury for disaster relief!"
"The villain donated 2,000 cattle and 50,000 sheep for the national treasury for disaster relief!"
"The villain donated 22 properties, 1,500 hectares of fertile land, and 800,000 yuan...... Get out! ”
The sincerity is not deep, the gold and silver are popular, they are all veterans of trading, and they naturally understand what Da Sima wants, so the businessmen poured up, taking turns to donate money, food, and materials, and the more you pay today, the more you will harvest tomorrow.
In just a moment's effort, the white silk cloth was written, totaling hundreds of thousands of gold, millions of silver, seventy or eighty million dollars, millions of grains, and livestock, cloth, silk, and pig iron...... There are a number of various materials, and the merchants have launched their power, and the real wealth is comparable to the country.
Chen Qun, Yang Fu and other Taicang officials, seeing that Xiao Yi used a wine banquet to wipe out the previous loan first, and then gathered a large amount of money, food and materials, they couldn't help but admire the five-body land, this is the means of 'turning stones into gold'.
No wonder I often hear people say that Da Sima's most powerful ability is not to unify the army and fight wars, not to govern the people, but to make money in business, if he gave up his official position and engaged in business, he would have been the first chaebol in the world, but Xiao Yi's current business seems to be bigger - with wisdom and courage as the capital, earn people's hearts and get the country!
"A large area of coal mines in the northwest is in the territory of Bingzhou, and it should be developed by our Bingzhou people, who robs Lao Tzu and who is desperate!"
"This big gold mine, located in the east of Jizhou, is naturally our Jizhou businessman's, whoever dares to meddle indiscriminately will go in with his white knife and come out with a red knife!"
"Everyone has a share in the mine, it's not good to swallow it alone, the old man has two daughters, and she is as beautiful as a flower, and she is married to the son of the two, how about we share the mine?"
……………………
It is said that shopping malls are like battlefields, which is really true, in order to compete for the interests of the mine, 48 big tycoons and more than 400 ordinary businessmen launched a fierce competition......
They use the region as a gang, or they take advantage of it, or they form alliances, or they form marriages...... It's really more lively than fighting, Xiao Yi sat on it and watched, took the opportunity to learn a lot of skills, and even had the idea of forming a 'merchant army'.
But think about it and give up, the merchants are quick and powerful, and if they form an army, they will indeed burst into great combat power, but they have an Achilles' heel: 'Only recognize profit, lack honor!' ’
A great man said it well: If there is 50 percent profit, the merchant will take risks, and if there is 100 percent profit, the merchant will dare to trample on all the laws of the world......
If the merchant goes to the battlefield, as long as the price offered by the enemy is high enough, they will fight back at any time, who would dare to use such an army, I don't see Liu Bang attacking Guanzhong, he used money to buy the Qin general who was born as a merchant, and the soldiers entered Xianyang without blood......
Therefore, most businessmen can only use and cannot be trusted, and can give them wealth, but cannot give power, so as not to bring disaster to the state power!
At the third watch, the merchants finally finished arguing, divided the 28 mines cleanly, and reached an agreement: 50% of the profits produced by these mines were handed over to the state treasury, 10% to the local government, 10% to the Wuwu Hou Mansion, and the remaining 30% to the merchants.
The output of the mine is huge, of which thirty percent of the income is also an astronomical amount, but the exploration and excavation in the early stage of the mine, and the forging and transportation in the later stage all require a lot of costs, so the actual income of the merchants is far less huge than imagined!
Xiao Yi only has one percent of the income, which doesn't seem to be a lot, but the twenty-eight places are added together, it is very considerable, and he doesn't need any money to invest, and he doesn't have to work hard, it's just an empty glove white wolf!
More importantly, 28 large mines produce gold, silver, copper, and iron...... Added up, it is enough to fill the empty treasury, and if the imperial court has enough money, it will be able to relieve the people, reduce the land endowment, and stabilize the Central Plains region and become prosperous and rich again!
If there are three points today, Cao Ying occupies the second one, as long as it develops steadily, with a strong comprehensive force, sooner or later it will eliminate Sun and Liu and restore the unity of the world......
"Drink, drink—everyone won't get drunk tonight!"
"Don't be in a hurry to drink yet, let's brighten up the tricks, tonight's situation, the mouse pulls the wooden wedge - the big head is behind!"
"Could it be that Da Sima still has good things, which are greater than the interests of the mine?"
Tonight's harvest was abundant, and some businessmen were about to celebrate with wine, but they were stopped by several wealthy businessmen, because they were surprised to find that when the mine was carved up just now, Liang Xiaoyu and Zhen Mi did not participate, they were the first and second chaebols in the world!
The former is Xiao Yi's friend of life and death, and the latter is a pillow person, it stands to reason that if there is a chance to make money, they should take the lead, but the businessmen fought for a while, but the Liang and Zhen families did not say a word!
There are no fools sitting here, and no one has trouble with money, and the two major chaebols have been slow to make a move, so there is only one explanation: there is a bigger business opportunity, and the profits are far more lucrative than the mines, which have fallen into their hands......
Xiao Yi didn't let everyone wait and guess, and asked people to take out the third gift, a map of the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty, which was drawn quite exquisitely, marked with cities, mountains, lakes, roads...... There are also four big words at the top: Huitong World!
