Chapter 449 Competition
"Lord Li Si, don't speak with your tongue." Gan Luo said, "As we all know, Feng Xiang has the right to sell salt. Apart from the imperial court, Feng Xiang is currently the largest salt merchant in Da Qin. How can such a huge profit be compared to Do you have little wealth?"
Feng Quji immediately shook his head and said: "I don't dare to compare, I don't dare to compare. Gan Xiang, you don't know something. Mr. Li has a lot of property now.
Not to mention pens, inks, paper and inkstones, there are also bicycles, stirrups, horseshoes, saddles, etc., especially fine wine. I believe everyone has tried it.
This is a huge profit. Nowadays, there is more and more food, so the wine will be brewed more and more. You must have tasted Li's wine.
And there are so many varieties.
Therefore, there is no way to compare my industry with Master Li’s. "
The more Gan Luo listened, the darker his face became.
"I believe Li Si has so much money, 1.6 million yuan, which one of you wants to increase it?" Ying Zheng asked.
How much money Li Si has, Ying Zheng knows best. In fact, the richest person is not Li Si, but Qin An. Besides that, it is Ying Zheng, and then Li Si.
Qin An owns shares in all industries, some occupy half, and some occupy 10%.
Ying Zheng also has shares, he owns 20% of each.
So he also had a lot of money. In fact, Ying Zheng also wanted to buy a ship, but as an emperor, it seemed inappropriate for him to buy a ship, so he established Langya Shipyard.
The Langya Shipyard was built by Ying Zheng together with many businessmen, and Ying Zheng spent almost all his money.
Now if he wants to get some blood back, he needs to sell the boat.
The price set at the beginning allowed Ying Zheng to make a small amount of money, but as everyone raised the price, Ying Zheng discovered that this was not a small amount of money, but a big profit, which could be used to make a fortune. describe.
In addition, days like this will continue in the future. As long as these ministers make enough profits, businessmen will soon buy merchant ships from them, and they can be customized.
The price of customization is of course higher.
Ying Zheng himself never thought that it would be so easy to make money, and after this auction, the national treasury was filled up a lot.
In addition, there are fewer and fewer people exchanging things for things. Because of the difference in price, basically few people are willing to exchange things for things.
Moreover, after Shang Yang's reform and Lu Buwei's promotion of business affairs, the business of Qin Dynasty has become very developed. Those who have money and power are those who are superior to others.
In order to let the officials shift their focus from land to business, Ying Zheng asked the officials to engage in business. He hoped that one day, all their land would be nationalized, and then the people would have land to farm.
For now, there are only a few people on the land, but with the emergence of potatoes, sweet potatoes, hybrid rice and other high-yield foods, coupled with the emergence of new agricultural tools, the population of Daqin will definitely exceed 100 million in ten years.
The most worrying thing now is that there will be more men than women.
In the past, because of wars, men died on the battlefield, so there were more women than men. In a peaceful and prosperous age, there will definitely be a preference for boys over girls.
These things, Qin An said these things when telling stories.
However, these are all things for later.
As soon as Ying Zheng finished speaking, the ministers looked at each other in shock. It was impossible for them to compare with Li Si based on their worth.
"One million and eight hundred thousand strings." Gan Luo said.
"Hmph. Two million." Li Si snorted coldly, not taking Gan Luo seriously at all.
Gan Luo could only look at Li Si angrily. He didn't expect that he would encounter Li Si just after he came out of the mountain.
Gan Luo had a way to deal with Feng Quji, because Feng Quji was a noble, and nobles had their own methods.
But Li Si is different. Li Si is a newly promoted noble, called a new noble, who was promoted by Ying Zheng. There are many such people, and they only take orders from Ying Zheng.
Therefore, Gan Luo had no choice but to watch Li Si double the price.
"Two million dollars is not a small amount. This is the highest price in my heart. Gan Xiang, as long as you add a little more, I won't add more." Li Si said.
Gan Luo was shocked and fell into the trap. This was because they were deliberately raising the price so that they could get the money.
If you don't add it, you will think that the strength of the Gan family is nothing more than this. No, it should be said that the strength of the Gan, Meng, and Bai families is nothing more than this.
Immediately, Gan Luo looked at a person. He was a member of the Meng family, his name was Meng Hao, and he was the representative of the Meng family in the court.
Meng Hao stood up and said, "Two million and one million guan, Mr. Li, you won't increase it any more, right?"
Li Si smiled slightly and said: "No more, Lord Meng has spoken, how can I not give Lord Meng face?"
The implication is that I really didn’t give Gan Luo face.
Others thought that Gan Luo had robbed Li Si of his position as left prime minister, so they targeted Gan Luo.
Gan Luo snorted coldly. Although he was dissatisfied, he had no choice but to do it. He had indeed taken his position, so he deserved to be targeted.
It turns out that he also thought that he had robbed Li Si of his position as left prime minister, so he had a problem with himself. He even thought that if the Meng family made a bid from the beginning, he might be able to buy these three ships for 1.2 million yuan. .
Ying Zheng said: "2.1 million yuan, is there anyone else who bids?"
The scene suddenly became quiet. Those who had no money could not bid, and those who had money did not want to bid.
After a moment of silence, Ying Zheng said: "Since no one bids anymore, I will sell a large treasure ship, a supply ship and a frigate to Meng Hao for 2.1 million yuan.
Meng Hao, please give the money to Feng Quji as soon as possible. This money will be used in the shipyard. "
"No." Meng Hao responded,
When everyone heard this, they were only envious and jealous.
Ying Zheng nodded and continued: "Following this is a large treasure ship, a supply ship and a frigate. The starting price is still one million guan, and each bid must not be less than 100,000 guan."
"Your Majesty, I will give you 2.1 million yuan." Li Si spoke first.
Everyone was shocked. Li Si directly raised the price to the top. 33
Gan Luo could only look at Li Si angrily: "Mr. Li is really rich and powerful. He always talks about two hundred and ten dollars."
Li Si smiled and said: "I am rich and willing to accept it. If you feel dissatisfied with me, then raise the price again.
As long as Mr. Gan raises the price to two hundred and fifty gold, I will give these three ships to you, otherwise Mr. Gan will be asked to raise your hand. "
Meng Ao smiled bitterly and said: "If my Meng family had that much money, I would definitely bid 2.5 million yuan. In this way, my Meng family can follow His Majesty to conquer Japan and conquer the sea."
Feng Quji said disdainfully: "You generals just like to fight. If I can buy the treasure ship, I will definitely open the north-south waterway. In this way, goods from the north and the south can be traded freely in the future.
Not only can we make money, but the court can also collect enough taxes. "
Some people died, but not completely...
