Chapter 195: Chinese New Year's Eve Family Banquet (9)
"Ugh! Can't even those who are close to you say it? ”
"The child swore a heavy oath at the beginning, and he couldn't pass on this law to the six ears, and I ask my father to forgive me!"
The haze flashed from Zhen Sheng's face, his face changed and changed, the chopsticks in his hand were raised and put down, his eyes swept over Zhen Qian's face, and finally he put the chopsticks on the table and said: "It's me who is greedy, I thought that if you take care of the Zhen family's bank, you would be willing to hand over the method of making gold and silver coins, since this is the case, I won't force you." I ask you, how many of these gold and silver coins can you mint, and how much profit can you make? ”
Zhen Qian was unhappy in his heart, it turned out that Zhen Sheng was not ready to hand over the Zhen family's money to himself for management, because he took a fancy to the gold and silver coin making technology in his hand, and wanted to take the initiative to hand it over, so he calculated it on his son's head!
The family and the country are all over the world, the family is in the front, the country is in the back, and the interests of the family are supreme, this principle is not only for the imperial power, but also for the family. If I hadn't separated from the Zhen family at the beginning, I'm afraid I wouldn't be so easy to talk about now!
But things have come to this point, and Zhen Qian has little choice, but fortunately, Zhen Sheng did not force it, which made Zhen Qian feel relieved.
Having said this, Zhen Qian asked rhetorically: "Father wants the Zhen family to sell this kind of gold and silver coins as well?" ”
Zhen Sheng did not shy away from it: "I see that this gold and silver coin is beautifully made, and there are many people on the market who use it, it is very convenient, and it is not easy to imitate, so it should not be difficult to make!" ”
Zhen Qian's eyes rolled, and he immediately thought of Zhen Sheng's intention: "What my father said is that it is indeed not difficult to make this gold and silver coin, the key is that the secret method is very difficult to master, but once mastered, it can be imitated in large quantities, so there are very few people who know this method, if my father wants to let the money bank sell this gold and silver coin, the child can provide a large number of gold and silver coins!" ”
"What is the profit and monthly amount?"
Zhen Qian raised a finger and said: "If you remove the cost of fire consumption and labor, the profit of gold and silver coins is less than one percent, and the monthly number is about 10,000, which is also the reason why gold and silver coins are popular?" ”
"Less than one percent!" Zhen Sheng's interest has obviously weakened a lot, and he can see that the gold and silver coins are full of materials and the ingredients are not adulterated at all, no wonder some people like to use this gold and silver coins.
Zhen Sheng drank the wine in the luminous glass, Zhen Qian poured another glass, no one spoke, and after a long time, when he felt that he was about to be cold, Zhen Sheng spoke: "The Zhen family customized 100,000 gold and silver coins from your bank, how about half of the profit?" ”
Zhen Qian's money village also helped people customize some gold and silver coins in Luquan County, but there were a few harsh conditions, and as a result, most people knew the difficulties and retreated, so it was very difficult to carry out this business.
"100,000 pieces is already a lot, and half of the profit is not indispensable, I wonder if my father wants to make it according to the current gold and silver coins, or does he want to mark the pattern and words of his own bank?"
The most important thing for forging gold and silver coins is to make steel molds, steel mold manufacturing is not easy, the Tang Dynasty did not have the laser engraving technology of later generations, the patterns and the text on the surface are a little bit grinded out, time-consuming and costly, so other people want to customize their own gold and silver coins less than 100,000 pieces will not take orders at all.
Moreover, many black-hearted money banks wanted to cut corners and reduce the gold content of gold and silver coins, but they were also rejected by Zhen Qian.
"What's the point in that?"
As a businessman, Zhen Qian wanted to make this business a success, but the other party was his nominal father, and if he put forward any harsh conditions, he would embarrass himself, so he didn't want to take Zhen Sheng's business.
"In addition to exchanging this kind of gold and silver coins, the children's money bank usually helps some other money banks customize their own gold and silver coins, but there are a few conditions that must be met, otherwise even the big business children will not do?"
"Tell me about it!"
"The first is the number of customized gold and silver coins, less than 100,000 money is not profitable at all, the second material must be full, ninety percent of gold and silver is not a penny, this is the bottom line of the bank, the third custom gold and silver coin pattern text can be designed by yourself, but you must be marked with the name of your own bank, and the words of "Luquan money" supervision, the above three must all be satisfied after the money village will accept this business, otherwise even if there is more profit will not do! ”
"My son is a 'Tao Zhu Gong', there is something to do and something to do, no wonder the business is so big in less than a year, I really underestimated you before."
Ancient businessmen, all successful people, all pursued the creed of "integrity, hard work, frugality, simplicity, and abstinence". In the long-term practice, we have gradually formed and summarized the business ethics and norms of "treating people with sincerity", "receiving things with faith", "taking righteousness as profit" and "taking benevolence as quality", gradually formed and summarized a set of unique business customs and business theories, and gradually formed and summarized effective management systems and management methods.
"I used to hear my father say that unrighteousness and riches are like clouds to me; Wealth and nobility are what people want, and they don't get it by their way, and they don't get it anywhere. Poverty and cheapness are the evil of people, and if they don't get it by their way, they don't go. In addition, seeing the meaning of the truth, seeing the danger of giving orders, and not forgetting the words of life for a long time, can also be an adult. Xun Zi said: The first righteousness and then the benefit of the glory, the first benefit and then the righteousness of the humiliation. It is the law that Confucian businessmen such as us follow, and children dare not forget! ”
"Well said!"
Zhen Sheng patted the table and said: "Establish the quality with loyalty, take care of the heart, receive people with courtesy, and respond to things with righteousness, so people are happy to swim with them, and the industry is rising." I heard that you are building an ancestral hall in Luquan County, running a school, giving corn relief, building water conservancy, building roads, and caring for orphans and the poor, all of which are good deeds, and I am very relieved! ”
"There are no rules, there is no circle, since your money village has set up rules, just follow the rules of the money village, when you go back, I will let people send gold and silver to Luquan County, and when the gold and silver coins are made, I will send someone to get them!"
Zhen Sheng suddenly changed his words: "Although the imperial court does not prohibit the minting of gold and silver coins, but gold and silver are not in circulation after all, and a small amount is fine, once the huge amount attracts the attention of the imperial court, I am afraid it will attract unnecessary trouble and suspicion, do you understand?" ”
Of course, Zhen Qian understands the truth, otherwise he would have promoted gold and silver coins in Datang a long time ago, and the profit of one percent does not seem to be much, but the number of circulation can be hundreds of millions, which is almost the same as robbery, and it is not a problem to easily earn millions of yuan in a year. But as Zhen Sheng said, gold and silver are not circulating currencies in Datang, and they are forbidden to be used by the people. However, because of the circulation of commodity trade, gold and silver precious metal currency can not be banned at all, especially in commodity trading, gold and silver have become the currency that must be circulated, which is a contradictory phenomenon, but it is precisely because of this that the world's earliest flying money and Jiaozi were born in China.
