In order to realize this huge education plan, Hong Tao had to pick up a small abacus again and prepare to find a way to make money. William III is the king, he can use the power in his hands to promote universal education, if he has no right, he can only use money!
Iron-making, steel-making, machinery manufacturing, woolen mills, oil refineries, fertilizer factories and the like cannot be opened for the time being, except for the strong imprint of horses, if you want to start these industries, you must have certain rights, just mining mines, land requisition and other things can toss the dead, just come to a small village head can go to the government to sue you dizzy.
Cotton mills can continue to operate, but they cannot be expanded immediately. Once the imperial court found out that this business was also particularly profitable, it had to be nationalized. I have to endure it for a few years first, and then talk about it when this wind passes.
It's definitely not enough to rely on Bao Huitang, so you have to think of something else, and it's best to buy *** such as the bank.
In the Song Dynasty, there was also a bank-like industry, usually called a pledge bank or a longevity bank. The former can be operated by both the government and the private sector, while the latter is a temple franchise. Regardless of whether it is a quality bank or an immortal warehouse, their business methods are similar, and they do not help the poor.
If someone is short of money, he can take the gold, silver, jewelry, clothes, chariots and horses at home to exchange for money for a short-term turnover, and even slaves and maids can be mortgaged. If you don't repay the money when it expires, the things will be returned to the pledge warehouse, and to put it bluntly, it is a pawnshop in the Song Dynasty.
Wang Si and Wang Wu's best job was the banking industry, and after they were evacuated to Mingzhou, they changed their names to Yu Siniang and Peng Xiaowu, and were introduced to a temple in the city by a maritime merchant Wang Hao was familiar with, and opened a small mortgage with their license.
Small mortgage is also a kind of pledge, the working capital is relatively small, and the types of pledged goods are relatively small. Wang Si and Wang Wu didn't plan to make money with this thing, it was nothing more than a form of hiding their identities, and they didn't lose money.
Compared with the bank, the pawnshop business is too complicated, Hong Tao does not plan to play, he wants Wang Si and Wang Wu to continue to open a bank under the guise of a pawnshop, and the main customers are not local people, but merchants, especially merchants and maritime merchants who often go out.
To meet their needs for foreign exchange can not only make money, but also gain a part of the supporters, the future generations have not said that the highest level of trading is to make customers friends.
The combination of the banking system and the postal system is also for the purpose of combining the strong and complementing each other's strengths. Since you want to play foreign exchange, there will be a large amount of money circulating in different places on a regular basis, and it is safer to establish a separate set of deposit system than to use the existing convenient economy.
At present, Shunfeng Dart Bureau and Shunfeng Post have been highly recognized by many urban customers, especially the big merchants in the city, who go out and bring their own money is synonymous with backwardness, and it has become a fashionable business means to go out to find Shunfeng.
With the exponential growth of business volume and the increase in the number of business cities, the number of employees in the dart office and the postal service has also been rolling. When Liangzhou was first established, the two departments combined had less than 200 people, and in four years, it had grown to a scale of more than 3,000 regular employees, with more than 20 branches in various places, all over the Great Song Dynasty, and relatively speaking, the coastal areas south of the Huai River were more dense.
If the banking business is also integrated, the dart office and the postal system may have to be expanded again, this matter alone Wang Shi can not be busy, Hong Tao to the new post office system to find two strong leaders, Wang Da and Wang San.
These two female generals have no suitable jobs to do after leaving the new army, and they are not the character who can sit in the secret room to write and paint, mingle among the businessmen, and refuse to go to Jeju Island to condescend to Chenniang, so they can only go to the rivers and lakes to mingle.
In fact, many of the dart masters and postmen are veterans of the new army and special forces, so it is good for the two of them to bring them. In this way, in addition to Zhu Bajin's underworld, there is another paramilitary force in his hand, and when will he use it.
"Do you still have to rely on the water, and in case of danger, you can immediately transfer the money to the ship and transport it?" Wang Si really welcomed this appointment, and he was no stranger to it, so he designed the vault of the Bank of Mingzhou according to the scale of the Bank of Huangzhou.
"If you have the conditions, it's naturally good, let Wang Qi go with you, and he will be responsible for the construction of your design." Relying on Wang Si and Wang Wu's brains to build the vault, Hong Tao is not at ease, and he has to find a professional for this matter.
"Let's go, Lao Qi, go to the design with my sister, don't play tricks here! You should really go to Huangzhou to see the new Huangzhou City, the thirteenth sister wrote to say that after the new city was built, the locals set up statues for you and your father, copper! ”
What is Wang Qi's ability Wang Si knows very well that Huangzhou New City was designed and constructed by this younger brother, although he did not see the day it was completed, but Wang Qi's name and appearance may be remembered in the eyes of Huangzhou people for generations.
"Old Thirteen has a letter? This girl is getting more and more disagreeable, and she hasn't been heard from for years! ”
Wang Shisan has not appeared much since he went to Huangzhou, and his sense of existence is very low, if he doesn't mention it, Hong Tao sometimes forgets this child. She and Wang Shi were both staring at the flower paste workshop, but their personalities were more eccentric than Wang Shi.
Wang Shi is still willing to come out to contact the society, Wang Shishi is a standard housemaid, nesting in the secret room of the ointment workshop every day and not willing to go out, concentrating on studying her magic and captivating people's souls!
As soon as he first came into contact with flower cream, Wang Shisan was attracted by this miraculous drug. I used to just hear my father tell stories about magic, but I didn't expect that there are really things in the world that can make people lose their minds. Although his adoptive father forbade anyone to try the taste of the flower cream, he did not prohibit research.
So Wang 13 began to use captives for live experiments, and the demons under Wang Shi who were not afraid of life and death, did not ask whether they were right or wrong, and did whatever they wanted, were actually medicine men cultivated by Wang 13 with flower ointment.
Through the process of cultivating medicine people, Wang Shisan became more and more aware of the properties of the ointment, and carried out several process improvements, and the purity of the refined ointment became higher and higher, and the medicinal effect became greater and greater.
In addition to harming people, she also invented a prescription for curing diseases with flower ointment, which is not only effective but also not addictive when used in the short term.
The drug has been used in the new army for several years, and each soldier has several small red pills in his equipment. Once there is a serious injury, just swallowing the pill with water can reduce a lot of pain, prevent the injured from entering a coma, and buy time for later rescue.
Wang 18 also used this medicine in the folk, and it has miraculous effects on pain, asthma, angina and diarrhea. But except for Hong Tao and Wang Shisan, no one knew that this medicine was extracted from flower ointment.
"Sister Thirteen didn't write to you, but she brought you a gift." Wang Shi and Wang 13 were a couple of embarrassed children, and when they heard their adoptive father complaining about their sister, they immediately came forward to play a round and took out a small bottle from his arms.
“…… Did Mrs. Ji know about this! Hong Tao only glanced at the pale yellow crystals in the bottle, and immediately stuffed the bottle into his pocket, without asking what it contained.
"No one knew that it was the Huangzhou inspector who personally gave it to the child in a can." Wang Shi shook his head very surely, and in order to prove that he was not negligent, he also explained the transportation route in detail.
"Tell the thirteenth child immediately, this thing can only be used for experimental research, not allowed to be known to outsiders, if something goes wrong, I won't recognize her as a girl!"
The contents of the bottle must have been extracted by Wang Shisan from the ointment, and it was very clear what could be extracted from the ointment. The light yellow crystal is the bandit, which is less addictive than the flower ointment, and can be used for pain relief, diarrhea, cough and asthma, and is a good medical drug.
But as long as this opening is opened, it will not take a few years for Wang Thirteen to refine a white crystal from this pale yellow crystal. It's a big killer, it's addictive faster than flower cream, and it's more effective. You won't need it yourself, so it's best to let it fall asleep, and the later it appears, the better.
"If you don't let the thirteenth sister come back, it won't be long before Huangzhou will be out of your control, and sooner or later the flower paste workshop will be remembered for being placed there. Without the escort of the new army, it is not safe to rely on the inspection institute alone. ”
Wang Shi may not really know what is in the bottle, but he knows the importance of the flower paste workshop. At present, she does not have too strong executors in Huangzhou, as soon as the horse loses power, the special zone is revoked, and no one can cover the sky locally, and the pressure falls on the shoulders of Fu Ji and her.
“…… You should hurry up and do this, it is not enough to evacuate the flower paste workshop, and the flower field must also be completely eliminated! Hong Tao really ignored this matter, and when he heard the words, he was stunned, more worried than Wang Shi.
"Daddy, the child has found the most suitable new laboratory for the thirteenth sister, and the flower field can also be moved, but it needs daddy's approval to become a ......"
“…… Your smile tells me that this place is probably related to Chen Niang, right? Looking at Wang Shi's incomparably weird little face with a smile, Hong Tao also felt a little chill in his back.
"Daddy Shengming, Jeju Island is far away from the Great Song Dynasty, and it is an island surrounded by the sea, so it is very convenient to control. I have heard Wang Zuotou say that although the island is not barren, there is no special product, and the flower paste is a specialty. Chen Niang has brains and wrists, so letting her look at Huatian should be the most suitable person. Not only to solve the source of raw materials, but also to exchange profits for the island, such a good thing The child first thought of Sister Chenniang...... Hee-hee-hee-hee......"
"You are very similar to your father, you like to see other people's bad luck, and Chen Niang will not let go of Jeju Island. Well, I'll give you a chance to see her unlucky. Immediately send a letter to Mrs. Ji and ask her to send someone to send Thirteen back. ”
Don't look at what Wang Shi said is quite like being a sister, but what Hong Tao knows clearly in his heart. Many children in the children's group have opinions about Chen Niang, because she has received the most love since she was a child. Wang Shi not only has opinions but also ideas, and always wants to watch Chen Niang eat deflated.
Of course, she is not to the point of madness, and she will not deliberately cause harm. This suggestion is indeed reasonable, the flower paste cannot be discontinued at the moment, and it can bring huge profits to itself. If Hwangju can't grow rice sac flowers on a large scale, and other places are not suitable, Jeju Island is really the best choice.
