Moreover, he also transferred three small flags that were not full of people, and hinted to Liu Haojia that the lack of people in them were all empty, and you could have a share of the money allocated from above! Of course, if you want to replenish your manpower, you can’t ask for money, you have to pay the money yourself!
Although Liu Haojia didn't care about the few taels of money he got for free, he was very interested in the position of the general flag! Once you have a position, you will naturally have subordinates. With more people, you will naturally have greater power!
After being promoted, Liu Haojia once again hosted a banquet to entertain the new people who joined his staff, and continued to gather with hundreds of other familiar people. Every day, he was full of friends and guests! This made those who followed him despise his petty attitude after hearing the news! It's just a general banner, and it seems like it has no future! Suddenly, I paid much less attention to him!
But the Jin Yiwei at the bottom is different! You must know that Jinyiwei is currently at a low ebb. The general banner, Xiaoqi and school lieutenants at the bottom are living on meager salaries and extorted money every day, and their lives are also tight! Naturally, I would not be happy if someone invited me to eat and drink!
But cannibals are short-tongued, so after eating, they naturally had to praise Liu Haojia profusely. So when it comes to him, everyone who has heard of him gives thumbs up to him and praises him for his generosity and loyalty! Therefore, Liu Haojia has become quite famous among the Jinyiwei at the bottom of the capital!
At the same time, Liu Haojia also had a second happy event coming, that is, those big businessmen could not restrain their desire to make money, and began to buy mirrors from Jubaozhai and sell them to other places. Especially the wealthy businessmen from the south of the Yangtze River spent a lot of money. !
At the beginning, most of the well-informed wealthy businessmen felt that Gu Ningbo's mansion wouldn't last long before someone would take away the secret recipe of Jubaozhai and the Mirror. At that time, they can naturally negotiate business with the new owner to avoid wasting money!
But what surprised them was that more than half a year had passed, and Jubaozhai was still standing there steadily, collecting large sums of money every day, which made them extremely jealous!
What made them even more jealous was that Zhang Shunping, who was born in the south of the Yangtze River, shipped mirrors to the south of the Yangtze River one by one, making a lot of money, which made them almost crazy with jealousy!
So after a long period of observation, they finally couldn't resist the idea of making money, and began to purchase large quantities of various mirrors and ship them to various places in Ming Dynasty. All of a sudden, Jubaozhai’s sales have exploded! Silver poured into Uncle Gu Ning's house like running water, and the amount even surprised Liu Haojia!
But this is not surprising. In this era, there are very few investment channels. When ordinary people have money, their first choice is often to buy land! There is enough space to wait, so I can probably do things like hold court ladies and support my husband! Therefore, there is still a lot of money that cannot be spent and remains among the people.
Even this kind of precipitated silver gave birth to a profession, that is, casting has no choice! To put it bluntly, this kind of thing is just a big silver ball weighing hundreds or thousands of kilograms!
After this kind of silver ball has been processed by expert craftsmen, it is round and round with very few bubbles, holes and the like! There are no suitable tools there, and even a dozen people can't remove this kind of thing!
To put it bluntly, it is a way to prevent big thieves and not care about thieves. Because the thief could only sigh with excitement when he saw the big silver ball, because he couldn't drag it away! And it is even more effective against large groups of bandits!
When a large group of bandits came to attack Zhuangzi, all the master had to do was run away. Because in a hurry, the bandits did not have the appropriate tools to transport hundreds of kilograms of large silver balls, so they had to leave them where they were! When the master returns with his officers and soldiers, the money will return to its original owner!
You know, these big silver balls weighing hundreds of thousands of kilograms cannot be lifted without special tools! Even if it is lifted up, a special carriage is required to transport it, otherwise the carriage will fall apart as soon as hundreds or even thousands of kilograms of silver balls swing on the carriage!
This is the situation in Uncle Gu Ning's house now. A large amount of money is piled up in the warehouse and cannot be used out. Father Liu and Mother Liu's eyes are twitching! If it hadn't been for the two hundred thousand taels of silver that the palace had withdrawn a while ago, the family's warehouse would be almost empty!
In fact, Liu Haojia also knew that building a martial arts gym and purchasing equipment would not cost more than 200,000 taels of silver, but he still sent the required amount of silver without hesitation. Because it is simply impossible to interact with officials at all levels in the palace without getting involved!
In order to resolve this matter, Liu Haojia discussed with Liu's father and gathered all the main figures in the family to prepare for an internal meeting. He must make overall plans for the future of Gu Ningbo's mansion and let everyone understand his plan. In fact, he had wanted to hold this meeting for a long time, but he had been busy with the affairs of the Beggar Clan recently and had to postpone it.
After dinner that day, Liu's father, Liu Haojia, Liu Guangyuan, Liu Guangting and Liu Haonian came to the study together. Tea has been prepared in the study room for a long time, waiting for everyone to sit down.
After everyone sat down, Liu Haojia first made a bow and said: "I am the youngest here, but I used my father's hand to call everyone here just to make a long-term arrangement for the future of our Gu Ningbo Mansion! If there is If you offend me, I will be sorry to you elders!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Father Liu said: "This is easy to talk about! You'd better solve the problem of the bank in our mansion first. It's almost full of money! Alas, our ancestors probably didn't expect that there would be so much money in the mansion. The silver, the warehouse is too small! By the way, isn’t it said that the Lord Long Live is involved in this transaction? Let him send someone to pick it up! With so much silver, my heart is hanging in the air if I keep it for one more day!”
Hearing what Liu's father said, Liu Haojia immediately laughed! Because the ability of mirrors to attract money is indeed extraordinary! It’s not that there aren’t businesses with huge profits like mirrors, but this type of business requires a lot of operation and goods costs, and the cash is relatively small, which is deposited in other aspects such as inventory.
But the mirror is not the case, the cost of this thing is too low! Even if Liu Haojia works hard to reduce inventory, his costs are still ridiculously low! So even if he saved a few mirrors in the warehouse, he actually didn't spend much money. Instead, the money he collected was basically pure profit! This made his cash flow extremely abundant, so much so that the warehouse was filled with money and could not be digested in time.
Liu Guangyuan saw Liu Haojia smiling, thinking that he didn't find this matter very troublesome, so he couldn't help but help and said: "Second Young Master, I know it is a happy thing to have more money, but our family also has too much money! It's too much money. It’s really scary!”
