Chapter 80: Half Profits

All kinds of monopoly things are half profitable, which is an appetite of many and not much. There are a lot of www.biquge.info things to say about pen, fun and pavilion, and that's because the monopoly items are either large quantities or the best commodities in the bulk of the goods.

For example, salt.

With the exception of Tibet, basically the vassals around the Tang Dynasty could not control the large-scale production of salt. However, the situation in Tibet is still relatively special, and the separatist forces on the plateau have been unable to unify because of the ups and downs of the Qinghai Fortress. Therefore, the demand for salt in Tibet has not yet reached its peak, and the salt ponds in their hands are enough to maintain the rule of the tribes.

But for a powerful steppe race like the Turkic Tieler, every grain of salt is the crystallization of the hard work of the slave laborers in the salt ponds. However, in the same way, every piece of salt had to be exchanged for cattle, sheep, horses, mules, and camels.

Wei Chigong was able to build a giant Wubao in Saibei, one of which was to be able to concentrate the salt of the central machine in the center of the capital of Anbei.

Either to get benefits from the old devil of Wei Chi, there are only two ways: one is to kneel on the ground and beg for mercy, and the other is to subdue him.

For the corrupt Confucians within the Tang Dynasty, the old devil was obviously bullying the weak.

However, if this group of weak chickens and rotten Confucians really dared to interrogate Wei Chi Ritian, he said, "Is there any pleasure in bullying the weak?" Zhang De can guarantee that the old devil's answer will be sonorous and powerful.

"Is there any pleasure in bullying the weak? Of course, there is a pleasure in bullying the weak! ”

And then...... There is no then.

The influence of the Tang Dynasty at this time had not yet reached the point of being comparable to that of the Han Dynasty. No matter how much Li Dong thinks that he is a bully, the reality is that outside the Hexi Corridor, the horizontal knife has seen blood.

Of course, whether it is Tuyuhun or the Western Turks, it is very clear that the horizontal knife of the Tang people will soon go west out of Yangguan without a reason.

Taking the Western Regions is bound to emulate the strong man, which is Li Dong's ambition and a strong stroke in the history books. It can be said that no matter how many things Li Dong has done before to give birth to a son, just this one can be written off.

Later, no matter which neuropathy came to power as an emperor, or said that the Tang Dynasty died and a new dynasty was established, when it comes to the era created by Li Dong, it must be compared with the strong man. Since then, the Han and Tang dynasties have developed simultaneously.

These are dark in the brain, and with the degree of male hormone secretion of Li Dong, they must be there from time to time. Then it is foreseeable that the Western Regions is also an ironclad thing.

The eldest grandson Wuji is eyeing the benefits in a few years. The transition period in the past few years is the period when the eldest grandson Wuji is looking for a political agent or spokesperson after he leaves government power.

For a person like Zhang Gongjin who is already sitting in the Li Tang royal family, the eldest grandson Wuji has no pressure to invest. Today's executive power of the government's administrative power is in the hands of Fang Mou Du Dudu, one of whom does not die, and the eldest grandson Wuji will not be able to make a comeback as written in Li Dong's "Wei Fengfu".

It's a subtle feeling.

For the old yin, Zhang Gongjin and Wei Chigong are different, and more importantly, the children of the Wei Chi family, even if they are placed in Chang'an, are second-rate. Compared with Cheng Zhijie's sons, there is no comparison at all. And whether it is Wei Chi's or Cheng's, they have a relationship with Zhang Gongjin.

If you really take the Western Regions, what does it matter if you push Zhang Gongjin to protect the capital of the Western Regions?

Moreover, judging from what he learned from his son, Zhang De and his friends have controlled all the joints of the source, channel and terminal in terms of the ability to distribute goods. The monopoly in the Western Regions can be put on the vest of the prince's East Palace, and the name can be borrowed from the queen, which is secondary, but half of the profit is acceptable to Zhang De and the imperial court.

To put it bluntly, it is shameless to rely on the identity of the uncle of the country, and let Zhang De's "Zhongyi Society" and Li Shimin's court tear it apart. Among them, the "Zhongyi Society" and the imperial court are mixed with how many families and connections, that is their business, and his eldest grandson Wuji has nothing to do with half of Kaiyuan Tongbao.

And then this half of the profit, more and not too much, lies in the operation. Or take salt as an example, if you want to kill the cities of the Western Regions, then it is possible to make fifty years of profits a year; But if you want to say that there are policies and countermeasures, then where in the Western Regions is there no salt pond?

The same is true for porcelain. If you put on a special label for the royal family, you can buy a vase for 10,000 guan, and it is not difficult to sell 1,000 vases for ordinary goods in Dongguan kiln. So there is room for regulation and control, and this is a game between the imperial court and the "Loyalty Society", in which there will be much bargaining between the court bureaucrats and the nobles of the "Loyalty Society", the eldest grandson Wuji is too lazy to know, and he doesn't want to know.

But there is one thing, all of this is based on Zhang Gongjin being able to sit alive in the position of the protector of the Western Regions. If there is no such premise, everything is a brain, and any Western Regions monopoly may be a few decades later. At that time, not to mention the eldest grandson Wuji, what the hell did Li Shimin die like?

The Imperial Protectorate of the Western Regions is a gradual process, but judging from the information that Changsun Wuji got from Changsun Chong, he deduced that the system of China Resources, and even Wang Xiaotong's design in Shicheng Iron and Steel Plant, has one thing that needs to be consumed in large quantities, and it is difficult for Datang to produce and keep up.

That's ...... Person.

Just the light spinning of the woolen industry and the silk industry, in Suzhou alone, it is not surprising that after the expansion of the new silk reeling factory, more than 200,000 weavers are needed. However, the problem is that it is difficult for even 200,000 adult women to gather in Suzhou at the moment, how can there be such a huge labor resource?

So in addition to exploration, the three major fleets were more often trade, a lot of trade. And one of them is the sale of Silla maids and widows.

Similarly, many years ago, before the question and answer between the eldest grandson Wuji and Zhang De Carriage, who were still planning to come to power, they had already discovered that the demand for labor in the Dahe Workshop was a bottomless pit. No matter how much labor there was in the Hedong Hetao, no matter how many prisoners there were in the Turkic Tiele, they could easily swallow it and then digest it all.

This is a model that is even more rapid, efficient, and terrifying than "indoctrination", a model that makes the "barbarians" absolutely die out.

The intelligence of the eldest grandson Wuji allows him to observe these things that ordinary people will not observe, and these things, even after more than a thousand years, are so full of power, it is so powerful that it can be used under the action of the unstoppable gear set generator, the production line sales line of the product, not the racial and ethnic homeland, only the class!

And for Zhang De, a shoddy engineering dog, all this is exactly what he needs, whether it is a petty bourgeoisie or a crony capitalist, in their eyes, whether it is a slave worker in the Dahe Workshop in the Tang Dynasty or an engineer in a high-tech company 1,500 years later, they are the same.

Zhang De has a deep understanding, but Zhang De still needs it.

Therefore, Zhang De is also eager for ordinary labor for consumables, and the million-dollar Khitan Goguryeo Silla Baekje is not enough to see at all, not enough at all. Even if all the Murwei people, Japanese people, and even Turkic people, Tiele people, and Murwei people were filled in, it was still just a small wave.

The eldest grandson Wuji took out a list of transactions, if he wants to get the population of the Western Regions or the west and south of the Western Regions, he needs someone to endorse Zhang De, and Zhang De's trustworthy Heavenly King and alternate Heavenly King are nothing more than Zhang Gongjin.

It's too sharp, it's really too sharp.

Zhang De sighed at the intelligence of the eldest grandson Wuji, he could treat the eldest grandson Wuji as a wild orangutan in terms of social system or other thousand-year-old gap knowledge, but this pure intellectual instinct to seek advantages and avoid harm, he could only breathe at it.

Compared with the rich populations of Persia, Tianzhu and the Western Turks, it is not worth a fortune at all. However, trading with the eldest grandson Wuji is full of risks in itself. What's more, whether the Western Regions succeed or not, and who will come to power, these are not things that Zhang De can foresee or even interfere with now.

This is the difference between players on different platforms. (To be continued.) )
