Chapter 760 Borrowing Money

Even if no one could persuade Tang Yi, everyone could only go with him. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In the past few days, Tang Yi has found the shadow of the time when he built back to the mountain, pointing out the country and planning the future of Yalong Bay with all his heart.

"Here, two blast furnaces are to be built."

"Here, it's digging a few alkaline ponds."

"And!!" Tang Yi was quite serious about Cao Pan and the two humane. "After you go back, you secretly contact Pan Yue. He was close to the Western Regions, and he saw if he could get some cotton. ”

In this era, cotton had not yet reached the Central Plains, and the so-called quilts and cotton clothes of the Great Song Dynasty were all kapok, and cotton was very rare, and they were all luxury goods transported from the Western Regions.

Hearing this, Cao Tong nodded, "Okay, how much do you want?" ”

"Massively." Tang Yi said solemnly. "As many as you want!"

Cao Yan glared, "In such a hot place, what do you want so much dead and expensive Western Regions cotton for?" ”

In this place, it is summer all year round, and hot people hate to have to wear clothes. What did he do with so much warm cotton? Moreover, it has to be Western Regions cotton. If this is shipped to Hainan, the price will be almost the same as gold.

Now as soon as the jacquard is made, Cao Yan will have a pain in his flesh and secretly luck.

"And...."Uncle Cao Guo also came to one.

"You can be a loser!"

Wild Boar Island is an isolated island, Tang Yi wants to build this and that here. Okay, what you want to build, who lets you decide?

However, Tang Yi didn't consider the follow-up costs at all.

Let's not talk about how much it costs to build a blast furnace, let's just say that the ore and coke used in the blast furnace have to be transported to the island by boat, and there is no way to get local materials.

There is also the digging of alkali ponds. It's no problem to dig, but Tang Yi didn't think about it, but the raw materials for making alkali also need to pay a high cost.

In general, the whole Yalong Bay is a money-losing business, and there is no return in sight.

"It's not a sale." Tang Yi emphasized again. "So, you don't have to calculate the cost at all."

“......”

"You don't count the cost, do you?" Uncle Cao Guo had a stinky face. "Okay, let Guowei settle the account for you!"

When Pan Feng heard that he was asked to settle the account, he grinned reluctantly, "Why don't you count?" ”

"I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with him."

“......”

Seeing Tang Yi look at it curiously, "What kind of account?" ”

Pan Guowei had no choice but to tighten his head and do something that offended people.

"Last night, Jing Xiu and I made a settlement."

Pointing to the Wild Boar Island in the distance, "Now, not counting how much money that island will throw away, just building a city along the coast, clearing wasteland, and building a military fortress to defend Wild Boar Island is already an astonishing number, enough to make your flesh hurt!" ”

"How much does it cost?" This Tang Yi really hasn't counted.

"The cost of materials alone is at least 10 million, not counting the cost of manpower and commissions."

"Why are there so many?" Where is Tang Yi's pain? He didn't believe it at all.

It is almost 10 million to build a hundreds of miles long Tongji Canal, and it is less than one-tenth of the amount of work to connect the Jiji Canal to such a bay, right? How is it possible to spend so much money?

"Have you forgotten that this is Yazhou?" Pan Feng reminded loudly.

Xindao, our lord, the loss is greater than the ability to make money. Otherwise, with his big-handed appearance, he would have to lose all his foundation.

"Except for the wood, which can be used locally, all the other materials must be transported from the Central Plains, and the optical path consumption is several times the original value of the material!"

"Wood?" Cao Tong's side was weird again. "It's just ordinary wood, and the big material has to be transported from afar!"

......

This is not Kaifeng, the wealth of the world is gathered in Beijing, what you want, how much you want.

It's a barren mountain with nothing. Not to mention materials, even a hoe for farming has to be transported from the Central Plains.

Don't look at it as a small Yalong Bay, but if you really calculate it, it is not more economical than building a state city in the Central Plains.

Tang Yi muttered, "This is really a problem..."

It is said that there is a large amount of available funds in the account of Hualianpu lying there to sleep, and 10 million can only be regarded as a drop in the bucket. However, this money is not his own after all, and he will have to pay it back sooner or later.

Can Tang Yi still afford it?

Can't afford it.

It's just that this matter involves too many sensitive things, Tang Yi doesn't want others to interfere at all, Cao Pan can't do it, and the official family can't do it.

Therefore, from the very beginning, he planned to use his own private treasury to operate this matter.

But then again, does Tang Yi have money in his own account?

There's really no money.

The Yanyun War has just passed a year, and it was the battle of recovering the land that Tang Yi supported only after he moved Guanlan and his own family foundation. It's only been a year, where did he get 10 million?

Even if there is any follow-up input, it is enough to repay this 10 million. However, Cao Pan and the others also said just now that Wild Boar Island will be a bottomless pit in the future, and they will have to spend money again.

......

"Or..."Tang Yi pondered for a long time, and finally looked up at Uncle Cao Guo and Pan Feng.

"Why don't you lend me some?"

“......”

Cao Tong didn't react for a long time, you are a loser, and you want Lao Tzu to pay for you? The beauty of thinking.

"Don't borrow!"

"How much can you do, what island do you build if you don't have money?"

Tang Yi was speechless and looked at Pan Feng.

"Hey, don't look at me!" Pan Feng looked constipated. "If he borrows it, I'll borrow it."

......

"Borrow!! They don't borrow, I borrow! But it was Cao Jue who jumped out from there.

Tang Yi wants to get a cannon, and Cao Lao Er is a staunch supporter.

"My brother won't borrow you, I'll borrow it!"

Cao Tong immediately turned his face, "Go cool on the side, where did you get the money!?" ”

"Why don't I have any money?" Cao Lao Er glared at Cao Yan.

"The Cao family still has a share of my belongings! Big brother, you don't want to swallow your brother's family property, do you? ”

"Ahh Cao Tong let out a long howl angrily.

"Why did the Cao family come up with such a bastard thing as you!?"

When Cao Lao Er heard this, not only was he not angry, but he raised his chin proudly at Tang Yi.

Tang Yi shook his head speechlessly, at this time, not only did he not feel funny, but he was a little embarrassed and couldn't say anything.

Yalong Bay is really a money-losing business, and Tang Yi has no clue how to recover the investment in the future. Therefore, it is not good to let Uncle Cao Guo follow him to jump into the pit.

"Shall I give you interest?"

Interest?

Tang Yi's sentence is a bit inconsiderate, and talking about interest with Cao Pan and the others is obviously a point.

Cao Tong was stunned, but he didn't expect Tang Yi's determination to reach this point, and he actually talked about interest with him, and he froze there for a while.

And Pan Feng saw it and knew that he couldn't let Cao Tong make trouble anymore.

"The interest is far away!" Pan Feng immediately came out to play a round. "How many years have you been brothers, how can Jing Xiu care about this little yellow and white thing?"

gave Cao Tong a look, "He just doesn't want Da Lang to do this stupid thing that costs people and money." ”

......

Cao Tong also knows that when it comes to this, if he doesn't cut his flesh, it will really hurt his love for ten years.

"Forget it, I'll be crazy with you again!"

"If you borrow, you won't borrow, and I'll be counted as a shareholder."

"Count me in too!" Pan Feng saw that Uncle Cao Guo had opened his mouth, and immediately echoed excitedly.

Actually, he is biased towards Tang Yi, but he has to follow Cao Tong's steps, after all, Uncle Cao Guo not only represents the Cao family, but also has the relationship between the official family and has to be considered.

"Let's go back and send a letter to Yang Wenguang and Wang Xianying, and let them bleed some blood too!"

"That's nature." Cao Yan responded with a sneer. "It can't be that good things can't fall on them, but there is no shadow of lost wealth!"

"That's right!" Pan Feng laughed. "What's so special that you don't have money, let's Guanlan and several families advance and retreat together, even if you lose, it's fun!"

After a while, he groaned, "Don't send any letters, I'll go back in person, and I just need to be watched by one person to recruit craftsmen and prepare materials in the Central Plains." ”
