Chapter 279: Guanlan Movement
The current Guanlan Shanghe has millions of heavy funds in his hands, even if he doesn't use this money for anything, just keeping it in his hands is disastrous for the Great Song Dynasty. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The Great Song Dynasty was already trapped by the "money shortage", and Guanlan returned such a large amount of money, which is tantamount to adding insult to injury.
Shu out of the "Jiaozi" with paper money; Salt in the northwest; The states used iron as money, but they were all forced out by a shortage of money, and the Great Song Dynasty did not have so much copper into the circulation market.
And Guanlan has accumulated six or seven million copper coins in two or three years, how big of an impact will this have on the currency market?
But, why is Zhao Zhen still so much money by Tang Yi?
Because Zhao Zhen is relieved.
In terms of understanding the money shortage and the financial market, no one in the Great Song Dynasty understands it better than Tang Yi, and Zhao Zhen knows that Tang Yi is measured.
And at this moment, why did Tang Yi let Zhang Jinwen dry out his family foundation?
Drying this bottom is actually not exposed to Cao, Pan, Wang, and Yang, but to the official Zhao Zhen.
This trip to Liao, coupled with two years of training, and some people coveted and persecuted, made Tang Yi understand a truth even more: that is, in the Great Song Dynasty, it doesn't matter who he is the enemy with, and it is not a problem to make flowers......
As long as the emperor believes in you!
The imperial power is greater than the sky, even if Zhao Zhen is an honest man, he is also the emperor.
Therefore, as long as Zhao Zhen can trust you, even if he collapses the sky, he won't be able to smash you!
Knowing this, Tang Yi simply didn't hide it, what kind of family background did the young master have, so that Zhao Zhen knew in his heart, just like Guanlan Shanghe.
As long as Zhao Zhen is relieved, everything is easy to say!
.....
As soon as several families heard that Tang Yi had more than three million surplus money in his hands, they were all secretly surprised.
What's more, this grandson is too good at money!
Guanlan business has a total of money and real estate, and the scale is now no less than 10 million. Each family accounts for one percent of the shares, that is, there is a profit of 100,000 yuan.
Compared to the 500,000 they invested, it seems to be a little less, but you must know that this is only three or four years.
500,000 yuan is given to Tang Zihao, so that he can earn 100,000 yuan in three or four years. Whoever is replaced has no such ability.
However, compared with Tang Yi, they are all scum.....
How many years has this grandson been in Beijing? Five years!
He took away so much money in five years!
No wonder Tang Yi said that if he doesn't scatter his wealth, something big will happen.
In particular, Guanlan and him swallowed nearly 10 million copper coins in total, how much money did the Great Song Dynasty mint every year? It's no wonder if nothing happens.
......
Tang Yi groaned for a while, that is to say, the funds he can use now are about nine million.
"Enough should be enough!"
Cao Tong shuddered, "What's enough?" ”
He understands that scattering wealth is to open a new business and let the money move.
It's just that......
Nine million guan is "should be enough..."?
What kind of business is this?
Tang Yi didn't say much, and asked Ma Dawei to take out the mountains and rivers map.
A little on the diagram.
"You say, what will happen if you get this place through?"
Everyone leaned over to take a closer look, and couldn't help but wrinkle their eyebrows.
"You're going to build a river!?"
"That's right, repair the river!" Tang Yi said firmly.
"But...... If you want to build the river, you also want to build the Yellow River, why build here? ”
It's not a day or two for the imperial court to borrow money to repair the river, and Tang Yi wants to give money to repair the river at this time, although it is a bit unexpected, but it is understandable......
However, what he wants to repair is not the Yellow River!
But.....
Rather, the upper part of the Bianshui River!
Tang Yi said: "It's not the right time for the Yellow River now, at present, only repairing here is the most interesting." ”
Strictly speaking, what Tang Yi wanted to build was not the Bianhe River, but the Tongji Canal, that is, the Sui-Tang Grand Canal.
The Sui unified the Central Plains, ending the 400-year split after the Eastern Han Dynasty. Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty moved the capital from Chang'an to Luoyang, excavated the Tongji Canal, passed through the customs in the west, and reached Jianghuai in the south.
This canal connects the Yellow River with the Huai River, forming a network of waterways connecting the Central Plains to the Jianghuai River. It can be said that it is of far-reaching significance, and the merit is in the future.
However, the war at the end of the Tang Dynasty and the chaos of the five dynasties, the Grand Canal was neglected to maintain, and the Yellow River flooded frequently, so that the upper section of the Tongji Canal, that is, the section from Luoyang to Kaifeng, was blocked and completely abandoned.
Now only the lower section of Tongji, that is, the Bianhe River, starts from the northwest of Kaifeng in the north, and reaches the section of the river in the south to Sizhou, which can also exercise the function of the canal.
The capacity of the south can not go north until Kaifeng, and the trough ship of Luoyang can not take advantage of this to go south, and the water transportation of the Yellow River will stop when it reaches the Daimyo's mansion, trying to look at Kaifeng 200 miles away.
Tang Yi has been thinking about it for the past few years, and if he wants to make the economy of the Great Song Dynasty come alive, the biggest constraint is undoubtedly the transportation capacity. As for the development of transport capacity, land routes are temporarily unworkable, and they can only work trough transportation.
As long as the upper section of the Tongji Canal is rebuilt, not only will the connection between the Yellow River and the Jianghuai River be opened up, but also the trough ship will go straight to Luoyang and go deep into the northwest, which will be subversive to the Great Song Dynasty!
......
As soon as Tang Yi said this, several families had led soldiers, so they naturally knew the deep meaning.
Once this section of the river is opened for hundreds of miles, the significance is too great!
Not to mention the trough operators, sending military rations to the northwest and northeast borders alone saves much more time and consumption than land routes. Moreover, transporting troops from Kaifeng to the northwest can directly travel to the Yongxing military road, and to the north can also go directly to the Song-Liao border.
Wang De looked at the map for half an hour, and the more he looked, the brighter his eyes became, and the more he looked, the more excited he became......
However, in the end, he sighed, "Good is good, but it is estimated that there is a lot of resistance." ”
It's not that no one has thought about building the Tongji Canal, Taizu wanted to open up this canal back then, and then move the capital to Luoyang. In the end, in the opposition of the courtiers, he had to give up.
Tang Yi wants to repair it now, and it is estimated that there will be people who oppose it.
"Grandpa Guo, rest assured! Now it is no longer the Taizu Dynasty of the year, as long as it does not involve the relocation of the capital, the nobles who do not move have interests in Kaifeng, and there are benefits and no harm to this river, so there should be little resistance. ”
Tang Yi said this, and Wang Deyong also felt reasonable. Even if someone stops it, the significance of repairing this river alone is so far-reaching that it is worth trying, even if it is worth breaking hands with the courtiers.
However, Pan Feng has a different opinion.
"Da Lang...," Pan Feng frowned. Is it good to repair this river...... But ....."
He was trying to say, what's in it for us? Tens of millions of dollars just smashed into it!? That's too selfless, isn't it?
"Grandma!"
Tang Yi knew what he was thinking as soon as he saw his expression. "Let's just make a suggestion, I want to spend money to repair it for them, let's dream!"
"And how do you operate?" Cao Tong was a little confused. Tang Yi took the money to repair the river.....
What is the profit of repairing the river? It's a loss-making thing in itself. Even if you play with flowers, at most you can lend money to the court and eat some interest?
But Tang Yi said: "Let the imperial court take this section of the river as a shareholder, let's pay for the repair of the river, and after the navigation is opened, we will set up a card in the river to collect money." ”
Burst!!!!
The crowd fell.
"You're going to collect toll money? What's the difference between that and a robber? Isn't that!? ”
Tang Yi flattened his mouth, "Lao Tzu spent money to repair the river, and it is natural to give money by boat, don't leave if you have the ability!" The original road is not blocked, and no one has forced you to go to my river. ”
If you take the highway, you have to pay a toll, which is more normal.
Is it hard to understand?
Several of them were a little dumbfounded.....
Pan Feng was stunned and said, "Can it work?" ”
Wang Deyong said: "It's really impossible? Da Lang is right, if you don't want to go, just follow the original road! ”
"However, the court can't agree either, right?"
"Yes!" Cao Tong said firmly. "Give a share, and you don't have to pay, where can I find this good thing!?"
"It's just..."Cao Tong looked at Tang Yi. Throw tens of millions of dollars in at once, even if you collect tolls, you can't get back to your capital until the Year of the Monkey? It's better to lend the money to the imperial court for some interest......"
Tang Yi smiled mysteriously.
"Guess ......"
This is much faster than the highway money in later generations!
The hinterland of the Central Plains is just like this, leading to the Yellow River and the northwest; The main artery that leads to the Jianghuai and southeast is underway. Holding Tongjiqu in his hand is equivalent to choking Da Song's neck.
It is estimated that when the time comes, you won't be able to count the money while waiting to count it!
When three Thursdays come together?
When the time comes, don't spare too much money and scare you!
