Chapter 196 Thirty million taels of silver!!
“Brother Shen?”
Zeng Anmin was reading in the room of the Imperial College.
He looked up when he heard a familiar voice outside.
I happened to see Shen Jun and Liu Xian walking and laughing as they headed towards the house.
Brother Shen? ?
Brother? ?
Seeing Zeng Anmin's reaction, Liu Xian was completely stunned.
As she was leading Shen Jun into the room, her legs were almost unable to move.
He never imagined that Zeng Anmin would address Shen Jun like this! !
"Quan Fu!"
Hearing Zeng Anmin's familiar voice, Shen Jun's expression suddenly became excited. He came to Zeng Anmin and bowed deeply:
"Greetings, Brother Quan Fu. It's been half a year since we last saw each other in Liangjiang County. How have you been lately?"
Zeng Anmin put down the documents in his hand and stood up from his chair. He walked forward to look at Shen Jun, personally brought a chair for him and said:
"Of course it's fine. What about you? We haven't seen each other for half a year, and you're not married yet?"
Zeng Anmin will not neglect his little god of wealth.
In a year and a half, Shen Jun made a lot of money just by using the chicken essence he brought to him.
Moreover, sometimes Mr. Shen would send some valuable items to the capital.
Zeng Anmin remembered all these in his heart.
hiss~
I saw Zeng Anmin personally moving a chair for Shen Jun.
Liu Xian’s mind became even more confused.
Isn’t this Mr. Shen the boss of Jin Taiping?
Just a businessman
Is it necessary for Brother Quan Fu to do this?
Shen Jun was naturally flattered. He sat on the chair a little awkwardly.
"There's no rush to get married. Wait until the time is right to open Wangxianju throughout the Holy Dynasty and completely stabilize the situation, then we can talk about getting married."
As he spoke, he smiled shyly:
"But Quan Fu, why haven't you gotten married yet?"
"Oh, I've been too busy lately."
"Let's not talk about this anymore. You've finally come to the capital, so I'll take you to experience the local customs and people!"
As he spoke, Zeng Anmin began to take off his official uniform in front of the two of them.
After changing his clothes, Zeng Anmin chuckled:
"Let's go to the most famous apricot blossom willow in the capital. Let's have a meal first, and by the way..."
When he said this, he glanced at Liu Xian who was still in a daze, and smiled at Shen Jun:
"Let's talk about the Liangyou Chamber of Commerce, the most prestigious merchant group in the capital."
"Liangyou Chamber of Commerce?"
When Shen Jun heard this, he became energetic.
He was born into a merchant family, and the Liangyou Chamber of Commerce was well-known to him.
"please."
After the two walked out of the room.
Only Liu Xian was left in a daze.
"Brother Quan Fu, wait for me!"
Looking at the backs of the two people, they were almost out of sight.
He came to his senses and quickly walked towards the two of them.
…………
Xinghua Tower.
“Brother Shen must be aware of the current strength of our Liangyou Chamber of Commerce in the north!”
"After more than a decade of ups and downs, it's inevitable that at some point you'll need funds to run your business."
There was a hint of pride in Liu Xian's eyes:
"And my father also said that the Liangyou Chamber of Commerce will soon make an unprecedented big move."
"As long as you are willing to participate, I can guarantee that the money you spend today will be worth ten times or a hundred times the profit in the future! Brother Shen has been in business for so long, I think he should also know that such profits are definitely not comparable to ordinary businesses, right?"
There is a strong temptation in the sound of the willow string.
But he just finished speaking.
Shen Jun didn't let him wait for long, frowned and asked:
"In other words, the Liangyou Chamber of Commerce needs capital injection now?"
There was a hint of calmness in his eyes as he looked towards Liu Xian opposite him.
At the business table.
Shen Jun changed his expression.
The whole person seemed extremely cautious.
"Well."
Liu Xian, who was already talking until his mouth was dry, froze slightly when he heard this.
He laughed dryly and said, "Brother Shen, what you said is indeed correct."
Zeng Anmin sat aside and saw that Liu Xian was a little embarrassed, with a look of satisfaction on his face.
Every profession has its own specialization.
He Zeng Anmin doesn't understand business.
But he knows how to use people.
Liu Xian has always said that he wants to cooperate with Jin Taiping.
He had always known it.
But he didn't know if there was anything fishy about it.
Therefore, Shen Jun is his best strategist in business.
“I wonder what kind of business it is?”
Shen Jun didn't say anything extra, he just looked at Liu Xian seriously, his voice was very calm:
"If there is an advantage to be gained, my Jin Taiping Wangxianju will not lose a cent."
"But if you want to take money out of my purse with just a few words, isn't that a bit inappropriate?"
Liu Xian was a little discouraged.
have to.
He still thinks too highly of himself.
The reputation of the Liangyou Chamber of Commerce isn't as impressive as one might imagine...
He coughed dryly and smiled awkwardly: "What kind of business it is... I don't know either."
"You're asking people to take money without even knowing it, Liu Fengnian. Don't you think this is a bit dishonest?"
The corners of Zeng Anmin's mouth twitched.
He looked Liu Xian up and down, glanced at him and said:
"Really?"
Liu Xian's face flushed a little.
It would have been better if Zeng Anmin didn't say anything.
When he spoke, he became a little anxious.
"Brother Quan Fu, I really don't know what business it is, but recently my father has even started selling off all the assets of the Liangyou Chamber of Commerce, even the eldest son..."
Well.
Having said that, he looked up at Shen Jun.
Shen Jun understood instantly, he bowed to Zeng Anmin and said:
"I'll go downstairs and urge the guy who's serving the food."
Having said that, he was about to stand up.
"Need not."
Zeng Anmin smiled and reached out to stop Shen Jun, then looked at Liu Xian and said:
"Mr. Shen is trustworthy."
As soon as these words were spoken.
Shen Jun felt an incomparable emotion in his heart.
He never thought that his status in Zeng Anmin's heart was so high.
Liu Xian saw Zeng Anmin say this.
He no longer hesitated, and looked at Zeng Anmin solemnly and said:
"The princess has even asked my father to sell off some of the valuable items in her palace..."
"I asked my dad what the business was."
"My father doesn't know either."
"Brother Quan Fu, you know that my father's life was given by the eldest princess. He has always obeyed the eldest princess's orders unconditionally."
"Otherwise, they wouldn't have given money and manpower without a second thought during floods and droughts."
…
Hearing this.
There was a gleam of brilliance in Zeng Anmin's eyes.
The eldest princess?
He looked at Liu Xian thoughtfully and asked:
"Princess...when did you bring up this business with your father?"
Liu Xian took a deep breath, his expression becoming serious:
"After returning from the great victory in Bifeng Valley."
I heard the three words "Bifeng Valley".
Zeng Anmin's eyes instantly became extremely sharp.
There was even a flash of realization in his eyes.
"Then I understand..."
There was a hint of whisper in his voice.
"What?"
Liu Xian looked at Zeng Anmin in bewilderment and asked:
"What do you know?"
"I know what business the eldest princess wants to do."
Zeng Anmin narrowed his eyes.
I didn't expect that.
The eldest princess actually thought so.
He slowly stood up and looked at Liu Xian with extremely sharp eyes:
"How much does your father want?"
"ah?"
Liu Xian obviously didn't expect Zeng Anmin to be so straightforward.
“No…I didn’t say.”
Liu Xian opened his mouth.
Zeng Anmin frowned and slowly looked at Shen Jun.
At this time, Shen Jun already saw it clearly.
His eyes even sparkled.
Last time Zeng Anmin talked about the profitable industry, he had made a lot of money after working in it for a year and a half.
This time there are still industries that can make money...
"The money Jin Taiping can use now is..." Shen Jun pondered for a moment, then slowly raised his head and said seriously:
"Thirty million taels of silver."
As soon as these words were spoken.
The entire box fell into silence.
Zeng Anmin was stunned.
Thirty million taels of silver!
That's a lot of money!
It can still be used!
Pure cash flow!
"Chicken essence... is it really that profitable?"
Zeng Anmin looked at Shen Jun somewhat bewilderedly.
Shen Jun smiled shyly and saluted Zeng Anmin and said:
"Although Wangxianju has a considerable business, all the profits have been invested in the new county town. Now we only have two million taels left."
"The remaining 28 million taels are my Jin Taiping's decades of accumulation."
"Oh."
It scared me.
Zeng Anmin was almost confused by this number.
that is.
It has only been a year and a half since Wangxianju was founded.
No matter how powerful a money-making machine is, with such a large industry, there will definitely not be much cash left.
"What?!!"
Liu Xian was confused.
He suddenly stood up from the table, his eyes wide open, staring at Shen Jun:
"You... no no... you."
"You mean... Wangxianju has been able to come up with two million taels of silver since half a year ago, even though they have such a large business?"
He even trembled a little when he said this.
Shen Jun smiled modestly, stood up and said, "These are all based on the recipe given by Quan Fu."
“It’s not my management.”
"Hiss~"
Liu Xianren felt a little numb.
One and a half years.
Two million taels...
"Gudong~"
He swallowed hard.
Finally, he looked at Zeng Anmin and stammered:
"Brother Quan Fu, I don't want to study anymore. I want to follow Mr. Shen and build Wangxianju. Do you think...is that okay?"
Zeng Anmin: ???
…………
Apricot orchard.
The park was built by the Liangyou Chamber of Commerce.
In a mountain villa twenty miles outside the capital.
This villa was funded and built by the former president of Liangyou Chamber of Commerce.
Today, this garden is home to various wealthy merchants.
All the wealthy merchants, dressed in extremely exquisite and luxurious clothes, sat on the chairs.
Look forward.
In front of them was a platform.
On the stage, an old man with an old face was introducing with saliva flying:
"The seventeen trading houses in Cangzhou are where the Liangyou Chamber of Commerce made its fortune. These seventeen trading houses are now being auctioned together. The starting price is seventeen thousand taels of silver."
"Each increase in price should not be less than one thousand taels."
As his voice fell.
The wealthy merchants in the field were silent at first.
Then there was silence again.
No one spoke at all.
The venue became quiet.
The old man stood on the stage, sweat dripping slowly from his forehead.
Seventeen trading companies.
One thousand taels per family.
Adding up to 17,000 taels, it can be said that this is an extremely low price.
But for some reason, no one bid...
"I know the Liangyou Chamber of Commerce's shop in Cangzhou."
"Ten years ago, let alone 17,000 taels, even if it was 50,000 taels, I, Liu Dehai, would have taken it without hesitation."
"But now..."
The man glanced at the old man on the stage with a forced smile, and continued to say to his companion beside him:
“It’s not worth the price.”
"It's just chicken ribs that are tasteless to eat and a pity to throw away."
"Yeah, change the item quickly!"
"right!"
At the beginning, there was only a little discussion.
But as the noise grew louder, the situation seemed to be out of control.
dark place.
Liu Sanjiang of Liangyou Chamber of Commerce looked at these discussions with extremely gloomy eyes.
In order to help the imperial court with floods and droughts, the Liangyou Chamber of Commerce contributed both money and manpower.
Even some important industries were sold off in packages.
Most of the important industries were bought by these people.
It can be said that it was because they bought the industries sold by Liangyou Chamber of Commerce that they are qualified to sit here today.
They are the real beneficiaries.
But now…
Their faces emerged one after another.
However, people who do business have always been profit-driven.
Liu Sanjiang naturally knew it too.
He took a deep breath and nodded helplessly to the person sitting below.
See his nod.
The old man on the stage breathed a sigh of relief. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and then looked at the merchants and said:
"Since none of you are interested in these seventeen trading companies, these things should be of interest to you."
After saying that, he waved his hand.
Then a servant slowly came onto the stage carrying something.
As the cloth was opened.
A blood-red jade pot appeared in front of everyone, emitting its unique round brilliance!
"The Han Blood Jade Teapot. This teapot was purchased a hundred years ago by the renowned Prince Wen for 100,000 taels of silver, but was rejected by the owner. Now, you have found it."
"The owner of the pot said the starting price is thirty thousand taels of silver!"
As he spoke, the old man's eyes became sharp.
Obviously, he is very confident about this item.
As soon as this item comes up.
It indeed attracted a lot of attention.
"Legend has it that the Han Blood Jade has the effect of warming the blood and strengthening the body."
"The previous owner of the jade pot used it to brew tea for many years and was said to have given birth to a child at the age of ninety!"
"Hiss~"
"So exaggerated?!"
"I'll give you thirty-four thousand taels!"
"I'll give you thirty-five thousand taels!"
Sure enough, upon hearing about the efficacy, some wealthy businessmen present could no longer sit still.
In the end, the price was set at... thirty-seven thousand taels.
It can't go up any further.
…
Liu Sanjiang's face in the dark was a little pale.
The priceless Han Blood Jade Pot was sold to him for only 37,000 taels...
A look of shame flashed across his face. He took a deep breath and walked into a room.
In the room, there was a huge screen blocking the way.
He stood outside the screen and said in a low voice:
"My dear, it seems difficult to get what you want today."
“These people can’t afford to spend a lot of money.”
"Why don't we think of some other way? Otherwise, all these rare items will be wasted..."
…
Silence behind the screen.
After a long time, a sigh:
"Go on."
Liu Sanjiang opened his mouth, wanting to say something more, but found that he couldn't say anything.
He could only sigh.
only……
"father!!!"
An extremely excited voice sounded directly from the dean.
“Great news!!!”
Accompanied by the sound of "teng teng teng" footsteps.
Liu Xian ignored the servants' obstruction and went straight into the house, his face full of excitement:
"Finally I found you, Dad! Guess what good news I have for you today!!"
