After a few glasses of wine, Li Jinghuan asked: "Since Brother Yishan is so cheerful, we brothers shouldn't be too picky, but there are no rules. How much does 10% of the shares cost? Brother Yishan can tell us a price, so we can have one." Preparations.”
This question is touching everyone's heart.
But Cheng Chumo didn't drag his feet at all, and said in a rough voice: "My father once told me that no matter what business the Yishan brothers do, no matter how much the price is, how many shares are given, if you don't give it, you won't fight, and if you give it, you won't give in, you can get whatever you say. If anyone has any objections, I will be the first to stop recognizing this brother."
Cheng Chumo's words represented everyone's thoughts.
Seeing everyone expressing their opinions, Yang Fan revealed his plan in full:
"The company will focus on foreign trade from now on, with 10% of the capital being 2 million yuan. There are three ways to contribute capital. Everyone can choose the combination freely. One is to contribute money directly; the other is to contribute skilled craftsmen; the third is to contribute manpower!"
Even with Cheng Chumo's nerves, he was stunned and said in shock: "Two million yuan for 10% of the equity?"
Yang Fan nodded affirmatively: "Yes, because overseas trade requires building a large fleet, it costs a lot."
Cheng Chumo looked a bit naive, but he was not a fool. His mind worked very quickly. He did some mental calculations and said in surprise: "The navy in the Tang Dynasty also has a fleet, why don't you buy these ships? Besides, Even if we build a new ship, it won’t cost so much, right?”
These guys are usually supported by their father and brother at home, or they don't do anything.
Even if something happens, it's all discussed among the elders, and they don't really participate. When it comes to specific matters, how could such a large deal have ever been negotiated?
Yang Fan opened his mouth and it was two million yuan, and it was only 10% of the shares.
There are definitely no more than a hundred families in the Tang Dynasty who can afford millions of dollars in cash.
There are definitely no more than ten people who can get two million dollars in cash.
No wonder they were so surprised!
Although the six of them share 20% of the shares, it is still an astronomical sum for their family. Fortunately, they can use craftsmen and manpower to replace it.
Otherwise, even if you kill them, you won't be able to get so much money.
However, this feeling was so exciting that everyone was discussing it enthusiastically.
Yang Fan said with certainty: "Two million dollars is only the budget amount, and it may be increased at any time. A certain person has said something ugly at the front. When the time comes to ask for an increase in capital, whoever cannot or is unwilling to take it will have to reduce their shareholdings. "
Chai Lingwu took a breath and said: "Master, how big a fleet do you plan to build? Are you going to get a navy to come out?"
"Haha, that's really..." Yang Fan felt happy and said to himself, this guy really guessed it right!
And it was a legitimate one. Li Shimin had already agreed to let him prepare a navy army in Quanzhou. Of course, Yang Fan had to plan it well.
However, we can't openly say that we want to build a private army, otherwise these ancients who were deeply poisoned by the monarchy are likely to retreat.
A trading house only needs a fleet of merchant ships. If you hire a navy, what is it for? A rebellion?
However, Yang Fan's idea was very simple. This was his purpose of tying these second-generation nobles to his chariot.
Yang Fan had an idea since he knew that the Cui family of Qinghe and the Zheng family of Rongyang wanted to use the Wu brothers to defeat Liuli.
With the emperor and these second-generation Xiang-level people as shields, as long as these people stand behind him, he can be invincible no matter what he does.
Even if the aristocratic families unite to deal with him, there are still people to help.
All the bustle in the world is for benefit, and all the hustle and bustle in the world is for benefit.
No matter how good the brotherhood is, there needs to be something entangled with each other to make the relationship stronger.
Besides, if they dare to stand by and watch something happen after they become shareholders, then be prepared to lose all their family's money.
However, we still have to give these guys some reassurance and let them show off to their families: "Our fleet will build a brand new sea-going ship, powered by steam, which can move forward in the ocean, no matter how far north or south it is. It is even more invincible in the inland rivers. Moreover, after the fleet is established, it can be repaid in one year. You can go back and discuss it on your own and give us a reply within three days."
Cheng Chumo said in surprise: "You can move forward even against the wind. Don't talk nonsense when talking about good things!"
Yang Fan said proudly: "Of course."
Why don't you explain to them what steam engine power is?
Ancient ships mainly relied on monsoon winds and manual hand cranking to sail on the sea.
During the Qin and Han Dynasties, ships used sails and the monsoons that changed with the seasons, providing conditions for large-scale navigation activities.
From the late Tang Dynasty to the Song Dynasty, people became more proficient in utilizing the monsoon patterns. The Southeast Asian Pacific route and the South Asian Indian Ocean route used the southeasterly wind blowing from the Pacific and Indian Ocean in summer and the northwest wind in winter.
There is an ancient saying: "The north wind sails and the south wind returns, and distant objects come and bring joy to merchants."
Therefore, in ancient times, one had to look at the seasons when going to sea.
Yuchi Baolin shouted: "In the future, we can go sailing all year round. Oh my god, if we can earn hundreds of thousands of dollars in one trip, wouldn't we make a fortune!"
Yang Fan said with a smile: "Theoretically, this is true, but the cost of building this kind of ship is too high, and it is expensive, so the 10% share price is as much as 2 million yuan."
This explanation makes sense.
Fang Yiai looked at me and you, gritted his teeth and agreed.
This kind of aristocratic family has great honor and great reputation, and no one wants to be compared with others.
I have to hold on to buy it even if I starve to death, let alone a deal that is sure to make a profit, so I have to make an immediate decision.
Yang Fan wants to tie several nobles to his chariot. Why don't the major families want to use his chariot?
It is so easy to consolidate mutual interests, even if they know Yang Fan's intentions, everyone is happy to get on board.
You use me and I use you. In the final analysis, interests are the strongest bond.
In addition to talking about relationships, win-win cooperation is the long-term solution. Only when everyone gets what they need can we go further.
The business was settled, everyone ate and drank, and gathered in a group to eat and chat.
Li Jinghuan drank wine and pondered for a while, then asked: "What should we do if the children of the aristocratic family, the prince, or the kings want to join?"
Among those present, Li Jinghuan was not only born into a noble family but also belonged to the royal family. His relationship with the noble family and the Tian family was very subtle.
Needless to say, the prince, even though Yi Chu's voice is currently very high, Li Shimin did not express his position.
In order to maintain his position, Prince Li Chengqian and King Li Tai of Wei wanted to compete for the heir apparent. Neither the prince nor the King of Wei would let go of such a big piece of meat from Datang Commercial Bank.
This is a platform to make money and win over people's hearts. It is a guarantee for building one's own power. Only fools will not keep an eye on it.
