"What? Urban investment company?"
"Don't understand? The so-called urban investment companies refer to some urban investment and management companies. In order to rescue the disaster area, the champion is planning to build a safe new city. For the time being, it is an internal subscription. Only officials are eligible to participate. However, because Wen and the champion have a good relationship , so we were given the opportunity to subscribe this time.”
"really?"
"Then we still have some time off. We'll find out if we go to Tianxiang Tower tomorrow night."
"It can't be a scam, right?"
"What are you thinking? Does the No. 1 Scholar need to lie to us? You don't know how big Sujia Cloth Store is, how profitable Veteran Logistics is, and how rich the No. 1 Scholar is, right? Are you interested in your three melons and two dates?"
"That's right! The three wives of the Number One Scholar are all shrewd businessmen and are much richer than us."
"There are four of them, and General Wu."
"That's it, look at the current situation of Ping'an County. The reason why the Number One Scholar subscribed first was to get a feel for it first, to determine the scale of the new city, etc. To tell you the truth! If you don't have enough financial resources to subscribe this time, please don't notify me. The number one scholar means keeping a low profile."
"..."
I have to say that Wen Xin is a very qualified trustee.
Of course, he didn't know it himself.
I thought that the great talent really wanted to build another city, but in fact, the great talent just wanted to use these entrustments to increase the enthusiasm of corrupt officials.
As for building another city, maybe if you don’t raise enough money!
If you have enough money, haha!
It doesn't taste good to lie down and eat soft food, so why bother with such idleness.
In this way, two different rumors spread among two different groups.
Officials all know that the city investment is to spend money to atone for their sins, but naturally they will not tell the outside world about this kind of thing. After all, being a corrupt official is not a glorious thing, and it is too late to hide it.
As for those businessmen, they came here to make money, and secondly, the reputation of the number one scholar was too great.
The No. 1 scholar told himself that it was smoke coming from the ancestral tomb, how could he tell it?
Of course, there are also people who have received messages from both sides. Although they are confused, but no matter what, they will wait until the time comes.
The news has been brewing for two days.
Finally, the day came for the establishment of the Urban Investment Corporation.
It was getting dark, and countless figures came in and out of Tianxiang Tower, making it very lively.
In a certain box, Zhu Ziyan and Yan Ruxue also came. At this moment, the two of them were looking through the crack in the door at the various crowds in the hall below.
Bai Ling asked curiously from the side: "Princess, I didn't see any officials! Isn't it possible that the prince-in-law made a mistake?"
When Zhu Ziyan heard this, she glared at Bai Ling, as if to say: There is someone else.
Bai Ling stuck out his tongue.
Yan Ruxue rolled her eyes and said: "Everyone who is supposed to come is here, but some are in disguise, and some are family members, relatives, friends..."
Zhu Ziyan nodded, "After all, it's not a glorious thing, so it's all covered up."
Yan Ruxue frowned and said, "There's one thing I'm confused about. Is it really okay for him to do this?"
"If we let these people take the initiative to donate money, should it be registered or anonymous?"
"If the name is recorded, wouldn't it mean that he took the initiative to confess his corruption? But if the name is not recorded, wouldn't it be a wasted donation?"
The fundamental reason why these officials donated money was actually to get out of jail.
Everything else is in vain.
But at the moment, no one knows how many people Lin Bai has incriminating evidence in his hands. If there is really evidence in the other party's hands, it will be donated.
But if Lin Bai didn't catch them, then not only would the donation be in vain, but it would also be equivalent to handing the fact of his corruption into Lin Bai's hands.
This is unreasonable in no way.
Those officials are all smart people, but they are not that stupid.
Zhu Ziyan was also puzzled. This was also what puzzled her, but she still said: "He will definitely find a way."
"I wish!"
Yan Ruxue's eyes were also full of curiosity.
at the same time.
In another box, the third prince also arrived, with a sneer on his lips.
"Humph! There are really many people here."
Fan Renli said: "It's normal! Coming is inevitable, but it's just a matter of waiting and watching."
"No one would be stupid enough to hand over the evidence of his crime to another person for no reason, unless he can produce the evidence, so in the end a big fight is inevitable."
His tone was still calm, but a little less confident than yesterday.
Because looking at the situation in the past two days, everything seems to be developing in a bad direction.
Moreover, the other party seemed to be full of confidence, which also made him a little unsure.
Ju Tai is no doubt the same.
In the hall, everyone was waiting patiently.
It seems to be the same as usual, but if you look closely, you can see that everyone is not thinking about the food and wine.
"Come on, come on, the prince-in-law is here!"
In the box, Bai Ling was already jumping excitedly.
Zhu Ziyan was speechless to this girl, but she felt quite sweet in her heart.
Yan Ruxue curled her lips and looked at the door, only to see Lin Bai stepping over, followed by several Ministry of Household Affairs officials.
Um! They are all responsible for registration and related procedures.
The crowd also looked over.
Lin Bai smiled, looked at everyone and said hello.
The response was mediocre. Except for Wen Hexu and his group who were excited, no one else expressed much.
Nonsense, asking them to pay money, what can they do?
Lin Bai didn't talk nonsense and got straight to the point, "Everyone, you all came here for the same reason. I won't go into details. This matter is beneficial to the country, the people and yourself. How to make a decision is up to you."
"Now, Lin will talk about the urban investment company."
"Everyone must know what the urban investment company will do specifically. There are some things that cannot be said publicly, at least not yet..."
A piece of nonsense.
But everyone's understanding is different.
The officials' understanding was that they would spend money to atone for their sins and not make it public.
Everyone also wants to save face.
And those businessmen also knew that the imperial court had blocked Ping'an County. Because it was still a experimental area, they could not publicize it widely.
It must be successful before it can be promoted.
Although it seems to them that it has been successful, the imperial court has its own plans. Since His Majesty does not want to make it public, the Number One Scholar will naturally not say it. Everyone just knows it.
However, they had no idea that the reason why His Majesty blocked the news of Ping'an County had nothing to do with construction, but mainly because of sweet potatoes and potatoes. 33
But how could the crowd know this?
Lin Bai continued: "Next, Lin will talk about the specific subscription matters of Chengtou. Chengtou implements a joint-stock system, and each share is one hundred taels of silver. You can subscribe directly for as many shares as you need."
"The specific number of shares to be issued has not yet been determined. It will depend on the situation tonight. However, the more the better, as that will be beneficial to everyone."
Another pun.
“As for how to subscribe, I believe that is what everyone is most concerned about.”
Hearing this, all the officials looked over. Just as Lin Bai said, this is what they care about.
They are willing to donate money to get away with it, but they are not willing to hand over their handle to other people for nothing. That is tantamount to committing suicide, so...
They all wanted to know how Lin Bai planned to subscribe.
…
Some people died, but not completely...
