Among the three states of the Wu Dynasty, the people of Qingzhou were the best at making money.
Through land transportation, river transportation, and sea transportation, even if we don't mention smuggling, the city gate tax, toll tax, and shipping fee paid by Qingzhou people every year account for more than 30% of the commercial tax of the Ministry of Household, and even more in a few years. It can reach 45%, and with the taxes on the acres, it is no exaggeration to say that Qingzhou could support more than half of the Wu Dynasty.
With wealth, Qingzhou people naturally began to pursue power in the court. After more than two hundred years, Qingzhou people have accounted for 30% of the officials of third rank and above. For example, Song Hai, the Yuhou of the North Palace, who had a direct exchange with Fang Fang, was a The boss of Qingzhou.
Those who are below the third grade and above the sixth grade reach 40%, second only to those from Jizhou.
As for Bingzhou, due to historical reasons, apart from being able to fight, it did not have any advantage in the Wu Dynasty. Five years ago, due to the warlord rebellion, a large number of those who could fight were consumed.
"How can you be confident?" Huang An raised his eyebrows, "Isn't he just a little god of wealth? How did Zhan Tao get his name? Do you think I don't know?"
"This is a new way to play now!"
After hanging around for a long time, they became familiar with each other. Huang An had also heard of Zhan Tao, the famous little god of wealth.
"This makes money, one method can be used, and all methods can be used. How many people have been selected by the alchemist, and few have actually dealt with big money. It is just a simulation. Zhan Tao has little advantage, but when it comes to the subsequent rewards, the situation is different. If you focus solely on the rewards, how many people do you think will let go?"
A thousand taels of simulation is just a piece of paper. You can print as much as you want on this kind of paper. There is no reward involved. You can do it in any way. But with the reward of half the profit, the mentality will be different.
"Too!"
Huang An nodded. He didn't want to admit it, but he had to accept it.
When doing the same thing, whether it involves fame or wealth or not, the mentality is completely different.
Small gambling is fun, the winning or losing is not much, everyone is happy, the winner will not regard it as a craft, and the loser will not take it seriously, but once the game becomes big, the situation will be completely different, especially the loser, reason and mind All fed to the dogs.
"If you're here to talk nonsense, why not go out for a walk? We don't need many people here. Even if you want to know, you can come at night!"
After setting up the tea bowls and seeing that the gambling game was about to begin, Fang Fang immediately started chasing people away.
The core of the simulation is that those people in the north are trading, not the group around him sitting around eating. The trading market is already hosting, but there are still many things waiting for them inside and outside Qinggutun.
"Come on, we are disliked. Brothers, stop talking and let me go out for a walk first!"
Huang An knew that Fang Fang didn't hate gambling because the Wu Dynasty banned gambling. He hated gambling from the bottom of his heart. Even if the trading market he engaged in was full of gambling, it didn't change Fang Fang's aversion to gambling. He ran into a gun. I have nothing to say and run away.
The crowd slapped Huang An on this topic, and those who had come to join in the conversation all found excuses to leave. They were concerned, but they couldn't delay other things.
…
"I heard that the simulation of the Qinggu Tunli Trading Market started the day before yesterday? This action is really fast!"
Shen Qingquan opened the rosewood treasure box and took out the contracts one by one.
Shen Qingquan, who was supposed to leave after the second round of opening of the household market, did not leave after returning to the Ming Dynasty. Instead, he chose to stay by himself and leave the subsequent replenishment to his tribe.
And how to do it is to wait for Qinggutun to open, so as to operate these contracts in hand as soon as possible, so as to verify one's guesses and exchange for more benefits.
It is too difficult to run a business. The risks along the way and the losses every year make even a business family like the Shen family feel distressed every time they think about it.
If the futures model can really make them money, it will be far more than just another way to make money for the Shen family.
"Sixty thousand stones of mutton!"
Taking stock of the contracts in hand again, Shen Qingquan became more and more excited when thinking of these results, including 150,000 yuan of pasture and 160,000 lambs.
…
In fact, it is not just the Shen family. As the pioneer merchants who came to Northland, many owners have chosen to let themselves stay. Compared with the first two batches of contracts, the transaction price of the contract has already begun to open after the third phase of peddling. rise.
Where is the rise?
The price rises in the hands of merchants who set trading targets in other markets.
Among the eight major cities in the Wu Dynasty, Guangchang was the largest, but competition was also fierce. If you couldn't make money anywhere, why should you get together and compete with each other?
Therefore, the major trading houses of all parties had already divided their territories before entering the Wu Dynasty, but no one expected that the Wu Dynasty would play this trick in Guangchang. Yunzhonghu City and Hejianhu City were relatively close to each other. In the first period, The organizers rushed over, but when people from other areas heard the news, the second phase was already sold out.
The contract and the pasture are the tickets. If you don't get it, you can only grab it.
As for how to grab it, of course it means increasing the price?
For the sake of the future, latecomers don’t mind spending an extra day at this stall. The wool comes from the sheep. Those who lose today will eventually make back tomorrow. Those who didn’t get the tickets need tickets. Those who have the tickets think about it. Later, the powerful ones kicked them out. If the contract had not stipulated that private transactions would be directly voided without going through the market, many weak ones might have been eliminated.
…
"Continue to keep an eye on the situation in Qinggutun and notify me of any news as soon as possible!"
Yan Shisong took his hand away from the lady's back and ordered lazily but dignifiedly, "By the way, I heard that a large number of residences were built in Qinggu Village for accommodation. Is it true?"
"It's true! According to the news we bought with money, the second phase will build high-quality residential buildings, all of which will be second-entry homes. It should be sold to the outside world in the Longhai New City model!" The steward bowed his head and reported quickly.
"Wu Ren is getting better and better at playing. The planning of Longhai New City has just been completed, and we have started to refer to it. It seems that the Documents Department of Wu Dynasty is indeed quite good!"
Longhai New City is another giant maritime city that the Ming Dynasty will build in Lingnan. The emergence of the new city is a counterattack by the Wu Dynasty Maritime Group against the Xungui Group. It is also in line with Emperor Wu's strategic layout of Jiaozhou. For this new city, the Ming Dynasty has already The debate lasted for thirty years, and the legal battle began at the end of the Hongzhi period.
It was not completed until last year, and the construction model was a pre-sale system. It did not require any money from the Ming Dynasty government. Everything in the city was pre-sold in advance, and the pre-sale money was used to build the city. After completion, it was transferred to individuals.
"I feel that the warriors probably don't know the specific operations of Longhai New City, and the gameplay of Qinggutun should be formulated without reference!"
"Doesn't this seem more interesting?" Yan Shisong said with a smile.
The Ming Dynasty was able to play pre-sales because it was a maritime trade force. The new maritime merchants made money and gathered power in the maritime trade. The pre-sale model seemed novel, but in fact it had already taken shape in the process of maritime transactions. How Ming people played it was different. From experience, I just played a little bigger this time.
But why do warriors?
We need a model but not a model, we need commerce but not commerce, we need financial resources but not financial resources. To be able to play this trick in such a commercially barren country, doesn’t it just prove the ability and means of Equation?
Having such a person in control of the futures market brings tremendous confidence.
