Seeing your own troops coming to Liangchuan is enough to give you confidence. Political power comes from the barrel of a gun. Not only big things, but also small things, at least you don't have to do it yourself every day. It used to be that you had to go to the streets to buy a piece of meat. These days are really not the best. People have passed.
Thinking about Liang Chuan, who always straightens his back when he goes out now, he can't help but snicker.
What Liang Chuan didn't expect was that the eldest young master Sun Houpu also came in person. It seemed that this boy also wanted to start his own career.
I deceived him all the time, which was a bit like a pyramid scheme to lure him into the trap, but I didn't expect it to work!
That night when he came to visit him in person, he told him that a man's ambitions are in the world, and there are ways to make money all over the Song Dynasty. Not to mention that he has such good tea at hand, why is he afraid that he will not be able to make money?
I also promised to make their family's tea more prosperous than before. Although I said it in a loud tone, it is not impossible after all. Now that I have Ding Wei's relationship, everything is no longer out of reach. .
There are people in the court who are good at being officials, and there are people in the court who are also good at selling tea.
A very effective and direct way for officials to accept bribes in disguise is to sell tea!
Tea is a bottomless pit, harvested year after year like grass. If you say this tea is worth ten thousand guan, it will be worth ten thousand! As long as there are several teahouses in front of the yamen or in front of some important units, don't worry, they must be opened by some relative of the leader. If you want to do something, you can go to the teahouse and have a good time!
There are too many people coming to Ding Wei for business now. These people are sending large and small gifts to them all day long. The small wing can hardly fit in them, and there is no way to exchange them for money. It is better to let these people directly Sending money comes easily!
I wonder what Sun Houpu would think if he knew that tea could be sold like this!
Liang Chuan pulled Yelu Chongguang Yeluhan aside and said, "How did you know that I was in Ding Mansion? I remember that I didn't tell you that I had moved home when Yeluhan returned?"
Thief Yelu Chongguang said with a smile: "When we entered the city, our group was also blinded. We also discussed asking the brothers to split up to find out the news about you, the boss. Unexpectedly, the restaurant where we stayed was talking about several important events, one of which was Speaking of the new son-in-law recruited by the prime minister, he is a new steward. When we heard it, it was your name, and it was a recent incident. We thought there was no need to pry, it is definitely your boss's big deal."
But Yeluhan's face seemed unhappy and said, "My boss, if you want to be the prime minister's son-in-law, what will happen to our mistress and wife?"
This lady is talking about Yi Niang.
Yeluhan has a very good nature. From what he heard, he probably thought that Liang Chuan came to the capital and got married to the prime minister's daughter, so the wife of that family would naturally be divorced.
Liang Chuan kicked him and rolled his eyes: "What should I do, madam? Madam will always be your wife. Don't pay attention to the nonsense people outside say. I just happened to have someone give me a set of Zhuangzi outside the city recently. You guys first Let the brothers settle down. By the way, have you brought your money and things?"
Yelu Zhongguang said: "We will naturally do what our boss ordered us to do, everything is in order."
Liang Chuan asked: "How is the port now?"
Liang Chuan now regards Qingyuan Port as his forbidden area, and no one can get involved.
With this golden mountain, I will have the confidence to do anything in the future.
Later, the Southern Song Dynasty lived in the southeast. After fifty years, it was still unable to survive. There were only four open ports in the south, while Mongolia had more than ten. In the Southern Song Dynasty, domestic prices soared and economic regulation failed, and the power of resistance was completely lost.
Liang Chuan's management is quite standardized, and there will be no exploitation. Everyone makes money together, and he is also happy when the merchants do business, and it is a win-win and mutual benefit.
"Our chamber of commerce now has twice as many ships as before in Qingyuan Port. The people brought by our boss Fengshan are so hard-working and know how to open up sources of income. They organized many migrant workers to dig rivers and ports. The entire port is in good order. of."
Liang Chuan said: "Who came up with these ideas?"
Yelu Zhongguang said: "It's from Mr. Su Wei."
Liang Chuan said: "Lao Wei is indeed a great talent, but how can those people be so obedient?"
"They have to ask Mr. Su to do their accounts. Mr. Su used to follow the boss, and the boss would listen to him, not to mention that they still have other people to ask for."
Liang Chuan said: "Lao Wei is right. If we don't organize the money we make from this and manage the port well, how can we continue to generate money in the future?"
Yelu Chongguang said: "It is said that the money earned at the port is now piled up in mountains, and it is transported back to Fengshan in batches. The wing of the owner's house is full of copper coins, gold and silver, and it is almost impossible to put it down. The mistress has calculated that we will have a month You can earn more than 300,000 yuan..."
Liang Chuan said: "What! So many!"
What Liang Chuan didn't know was that there were two companies making money at Qingyuan Port, one was the imperial court, and the other was him. Although both ends had to pay taxes under management, the miscellaneous items were gone, and the number of ships at sea increased, which was equivalent to an increase in the court's income. Furthermore, the shipping tax and goods tax collected by the imperial court were not as much as what he collected, so how could he not make huge profits?
Yelu Zhongguang said: "Later, there were more and more jealous people. The people from Qingyuantang were the first to want to eat meat. At that time, it was said that the two sworn brothers of the host family strongly opposed it. There were disagreements in Qingyuantang, so Dong Qingshan took care of the people in the hall alone. Come to the port to grab territory.”
Before he left, Qingyuantang had always been at odds with his port. Tang Xiangtian was also very ambitious. Seeing that Qingyuan Port was making money every day, and it was he, the mud-legged ones from Fengshan, who was in charge of it. I definitely can’t swallow it!
During his absence, this conflict broke out decisively. Liang Chuan had long known that many people wanted to take a bite of this good piece of meat.
At this time, Qin Jing and Yuchi came over.
Yuchi said: "We have persuaded Tang Xiangtian. When he got old, he listened to Dong Qingshan's instigation and made it difficult for him to get along with the third brother's people. But we couldn't. At that time, we didn't help inside or outside, so we ordered our men to wait and see what happens."
Tang Xiangtian was jealous of the huge benefits of Qingyuan Port. It turned out that he hadn't felt it yet. It was just a few water tyrants carving up this big piece of meat. He didn't see how much oil and water there was. Later, people from Fengshan came and transported money to Fengshan every day. Everyone sees it, who can not be jealous.
He was jealous and started to fight. The four water tyrants couldn't defeat Liang Chuan, how could a person from the Tang Dynasty defeat him?
Dong Qingshan led people to the port. Before any trouble was caused, the members of the adult management brigade started to attack. The children of Fengshan were afraid of poverty before. It was not easy to have such an opportunity to make money. Everyone who came over were people who came to rob their money. , how could he allow others to sleep soundly next to the bed? He immediately became furious, and without even having to talk, he picked up the guy and started fighting!
Liang Chuan also confessed when he left that there was no need to discuss the issue of sovereignty. Qingyuan Port is the foundation of the revolutionary base. This place must not tolerate any harm. Anyone with ideas must be eliminated immediately, not only spiritually, but also physically. In order to protect this place, Liang Chuan left Qingyuan without anyone from the management team, and even most of the intelligence team stayed in Qingyuan!
As soon as the port was attacked, Si Fangxing immediately received a report from the spies. He ordered his troops and horses and roared to the port. Since he killed Sha Guanjiang and other water tyrants, he has become the one hand covering the sky on the white road. characters!
In the past, he could not get a cent from the port. Since Liang Chuan took over, he has been sending money to his home every day. In other words, he is now also a shareholder of the port management committee. If someone comes to his home to snatch things, can he not get angry? ?
When the members of the intelligence team saw this, they consciously added to the anger.
Originally, Dong Qingshan and his colleagues were having a hard time fighting against the Intelligence Team. Facing the Chengguan Team was like an egg against a stone. Coupled with the regular army from the government Sifangxing and the intervention of the Secret Intelligence Team, Before the momentum got louder, the three parties joined forces to kill them by the river.
When Si Fangxing was not satisfied, he rushed to Qingyuantang and tore apart several other halls. Not only the water tyrants on the river, but also the evil forces on the shore were almost wiped out by him!
Qin Jing and Yuchi were sworn brothers of Liang Chuan. Si Fangxing knew about this relationship, otherwise he would also have to settle the matter.
Since ancient times, blocking people's way of making money is like killing your parents.
After this battle, Qingyuan basically stopped.
Qin Jing and Yuchi saw that they had nothing to play with. Tang Xiangtian was at fault in this matter first. Liang Chuan had helped them both in Xinghua, and later became sworn friends with them. Even though they were not helping each other, they could still be regarded as worthy of Tang Xiangtian. I heard Liang Chuan ran into trouble in Qingyuan, so the two of them packed up and came to the capital.
As for Sun Houpu, as soon as he said he wanted to provide tea himself, he immediately knew that Liang Chuan definitely wanted to help him sell tea. This person's business acumen is extremely developed. He dares to think what others can't think of, and even if he dares to think, he can still do it.
I don't have much development opportunities in Qingyuan, and the smuggling market is only so big. I thought I might as well go out and make a living.
Although his younger brother Sun Houcai is uneducated and incompetent, he is not without merit. It’s just that his biological mother and his mother’s uncles have been trying to squeeze him out of the Sun family all day long. It’s better to be subjected to this kind of bird-like behavior in Qingyuan all day long. Come out and conquer the country by yourself!
When Liang Chuan saw that Ding Mansion was not the place to talk, there were still many things going on at the moment, and he couldn't finish them in a short while. He couldn't keep talking on the street, and the servants in the manor didn't look good, so he hurriedly brought him Following these old brothers, they walked out of the city.
Zhuangzi was in the west of the city. He left the city gate and walked more than thirty miles to Zhongmu. The boundary of the land belonged to Zhongmu. Zhuangzi is not a particularly good Zhuangzi, it is just an average farmer. It has nearly a hundred acres of dry sand land. It can be considered a relatively poor Zhuangzi. There are not many people around. No wonder these rich people gave it away without blinking an eye. .
This kind of Zhuangzi does not receive much grain in hand, but has to pay a lot of taxes. If farmers are lazy, they will basically not make much money.
For Liang Chuan, all he needs to do is make some shitty money and be able to settle people down.
Is Liang Chuan short of money now? I heard that the port can earn more than 300,000 yuan a month. Does he still need to struggle? As expected, Yi Niang manages the household well. What she earned after working so hard for so long was less than a fraction of Yi Niang’s!
There is no population movement in this place, there are not many outsiders, and the land is the dry sandy land needed to grow sweet potatoes, so it is simply the most suitable place.
Bianjing in the Northern Song Dynasty relied on these few acres of thin fields to support a population of nearly one million. It was the most prosperous city in the world and brought the creation of agricultural civilization to its peak.
This certainly has the effect of gathering money and food from all over the world. All the money and food from various states are transferred to Bianjing. Not to mention the border areas, even the several counties around Kaifeng are so poor that they can't even hear the sound of a clank.
Zhuangzi is right between Xiangfu and Zhongmu, which can be regarded as a border area. People who farmed in the Song Dynasty had extremely low status. They claimed to put agriculture first and emphasize agriculture and suppress business, but when I looked at the table at the table, I didn't toast the cups first. A merchant?
People with a little bit of brains have gone to Bianjing to start small businesses. No matter how hard it is to do odd jobs, they can earn more than doing farm work and it's easier. Under the influence of this thinking, the emperor's feet became the place with the least farming.
It is said that Cai Meng Nianxiu's sister also lives in a village nearby. The entrance and exit are all ushered in by large carriages, which is very impressive.
Zhuangzi Liang Chuan directly named him Liangjiazhuang, but the local surname Liang was a relatively rare one.
There were no more people in the village, so the houses were left. The original rich owner dispersed the farmers and left the land uncultivated.
Yelu Chongguang and Yeluhan took down the sign, causing a violent burst of dust. The one that will be hung next will be Liangjiazhuang.
Several people sat down and talked slowly.
At night, Liang Chuan set up several tables and feasted on wine and meat. He talked about his recent experiences in Bianjing, and basically said that there are a lot of stupid people here and there is gold everywhere, so you can make a lot of money. Brothers, if you follow suit and work hard, there will be a lot of opportunities to make money in the future.
When he was almost done drinking, Liang Chuan pulled Sun Houpu aside and said mysteriously: "I have an investment here. I wonder if you are interested, Brother Sun!"
