The simpler and cruder it is, the more incomprehensible it is.
In fact, it is not just the Wu Dynasty that targets the grasslands. In the offensive and defensive battles of various countries, the defenders always use the simplest and most efficient way to drag the siege party into their areas of expertise. The only difference is whether it costs money or not.
The Wu Dynasty seemed to have done nothing, but in fact it wasted large tracts of high-quality grassland.
"The market is about to close. You go about your business first. As for me, I will stay here for the next few days!"
The conch ring sounded outside the house, indicating that Lao Pu was not in Beidi, but what happened in the trading market every day was reported to Tai'an City by someone from the Documents Department.
What he and the Empress read were the detailed reports, while the nobles in Tai'an City read the briefings. If everyone hadn't been dragged down by the two-front war and the work-for-relief, they knew that the scale of this year would not be too big, and many people were already preparing to go north.
So profitable!
They can't touch what the platform makes, but the money that fluctuates between the numbers is still ok. As for the losses, no one will feel that the person they lose must be them.
This needs to be known to the equation, and he will not be happy to die.
Leeks, all are good leeks!
"Why, after taking the money, do you still want to collect it?" Fang Fang glared at Lao Pu.
This person really can't give him a good look. This old guy is obviously trying to squeeze out his own surplus labor force. How could he be? Everyone is hiding in the north. There are still things to talk to him about.
"It's not a scam, it's just something. You can know it. If you open your eyes, no one will definitely use your plan!" Lao Pu curled his lips, "Do you really think you are the only smart person in the Wu Dynasty?"
"Come on, I just want to see how old you are and I won't bully you. I'll ask Xiaohu to bring the food to you later."
Lao Pu was so tired that he had already figured out the equation when we met. He opened a bunch of cabinets and said, "Here is a new set of sleeping sets. Don't use me."
…
"Sir, who is inside?"
Watching Fang Fang walk out of the office, Shang Zhong, who was waiting at the turn of the stairs, immediately came over.
"I'm really curious, why don't I just go in and meet him by myself?" Fang Fang joked.
Hearing this, Shang Zhong immediately apologized, "Master Fang, please stop making fun of me. Usually there are only three people from the Documents Department, but now..."
The mystery of the Records Department is relative. Shang Zhong definitely knows the inside story of the Records Department, and he may not have contact with Shang Zhong or want to.
The Wu Dynasty allowed everyone to indulge in their behavior, as long as it was not excessive, but when you bumped into the Documents Department, it was best not to have any curiosity.
"You know you still ask?"
He replied angrily, "You've been outside every night lately, and there are a lot of people around you, right?"
After the opening of Qinggutun, the flow of people has increased. Before and after each round of household markets, people will come to the grassland. Compared with the irregular household markets and the price of large-scale purchases, they come to Qinggutun to sell some medicinal materials. , treasure is obviously easier.
For these smart people, Qinggu Tun does not impose any restrictions. It just stipulates that they cannot stay permanently and that they need to go through procedures to enter the village.
But even so, it still can't stop people who want to sell the good goods in their hands at a good price. Of course, there are also people who come to sell themselves.
"No, I'm tired of eating. Sir, you don't know that the cooks brought by the big chamber of commerce are all good in their own way. It's really hard to imagine how those people would leave the cook here just for a bite to eat. Around you?"
In the past month, Shang Zhong had finally seen what it means to be wealthy in the Central Plains?
Someone is responsible for all food and drink expenses. You know that people live on temporarily divided land and only set up larger tents, but the situation inside the tent completely replicates the situation of those businessmen at home.
Servants, servants, cooks, maids, as few as seven or eight, as many as twenty or thirty.
There is no curfew in Qinggutun. Driven by those who know how to play and enjoy themselves, there is more nightlife here than in Tai'an City.
"Tell me, what did you talk about?"
Of course Fang Fang knew what it was like in the village at night, but he didn't like it, just because no one invited him.
These large chambers of commerce gathered here, giving birth to a large number of top food suppliers, flying in the sky, running on the ground, and swimming in the water. Earlier, Fang Fang had to lead his team deep into the wilderness, but now someone has come to his door.
This resulted in Equation not participating in the banquet, but the variety of food was doubling.
"It's not like the three old ones. Shares, land deeds, and futures. Master Fang, you are holding on to them, but you also said that trading of issued shares is not prohibited. There are many people interested in them during this period, and there are also people who are in contact with them secretly."
Having no contact with people from the Song Dynasty or the Ming Dynasty, Shang Zhong felt that as the second generation of the Hou family, even if he did not have the right to inherit, his family's life was not bad at all, but he was afraid of comparison in everything.
The enjoyment of traveling is better than that of a noble man like him at home, and the prices offered by some large chambers of commerce are even more exciting.
"Do you know what the price is now?"
"Fifty-six taels per share, this is the news that leaked out the night before yesterday. One hundred shares is never too few, and one thousand shares is never too many. The more shares you have at a time, the higher the price. Fortunately, all the shares we issued before have flowed into the family. In my hand, although this price is exciting, it is not like a futures contract, it is just a short price."
In this world, you can always believe in the vision and determination of a wealthy family. Fifty-six liang per share has increased ten times compared to the initial five liang per share. It has increased faster than the market transaction price, let alone fifty-six. Two, even if it is five hundred and sixty taels, the wealthy families in the North will not sell their shares.
"Where's the land?"
"Yes, but most large chambers of commerce only want land, not buildings on the ground. From their discussion, one acre of land does not count as a house, and they can eat it if it does not exceed three hundred taels?" Shang Zhong said quickly, "To be honest, I have been a little curious these days, where does the money come from?"
The major chambers of commerce must have money, but the money is at home, not in the North. The Wu Dynasty has already begun to control the inflow and outflow of foreign funds, and the money they get from the household market is not enough.
"I am also very curious!"
I can probably guess a little bit from the equation, but it's hard to say, "Go out to eat these days, spread some news, add fuel to the market, ship goods in early July, and buy the news to make money, you should be able to do it?"
Hearing this, Shang Zhong was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "Of course it can be done?"
The second generation earns pocket money not only by relying on information from home, but also by monetizing what they can use and finding ways to sell it if they can't use it.
It's a pity that the business in Wu Dynasty was not developed, so I only bought it for a small amount of money. I could make a small amount of money in a year and show it off in front of my brothers, but I didn't want to do more.
"Just do it if you know how. Don't go too far. Once you get the money, you'll get a 50-50 split. This money is not for me, but for the person above!"
Fang Fang pointed to the third floor.
To raise 250,000 taels without harming the future of the trading market, we can only start from all aspects and accumulate a little to make a big thing.
Looking back at the location on the third floor, Shang Zhong quickly corrected his attitude, "Understood, just leave this matter to us. If there are many people who need information, let alone two or thirty thousand taels, it's still no problem. "
In Qinggu Village, there are merchants and merchants, big and small, and there are already four or five hundred wealthy people. There are not many qualified to compete for shares, but there are many people who want to start a business in Qinggu Village. These people are all in need of information.
Fang Fang didn't say anything. They should eat and drink, and they didn't say anything. Now that Fang Fang said he wanted to make money, everyone had to prove their traditional skills no matter what.
