Prince of Chaos

Is Shishihang's statement important?

As far as Zhu Changluo's current strength is concerned, it is not important.

But as far as the current situation in Jiangnan is concerned, it is extremely important.

Zhu Changluo is not a bloodthirsty person, and he can sit down and discuss and solve the problem. Although this kind of process is not as decisive as direct killing, this method is undoubtedly the best.

Because only in this way can Zhu Changluo regain Jiangnan's hearts in the fastest time.

Once the killing ring is set, even if you can achieve your desired goal in the shortest time, the consequences will be endless.

The low-level people who don't know what's going on won't think that Zhu Changluo's actions are for them. They will be brainwashed by the gentry who have supported them for generations, thinking that Zhu Changluo is a cruel and heartless person who will bring them serious disasters people.

This will cause Zhu Changluo to fall into a predicament when he subsequently explores the human potential of Jiangnan. After all, as simple and honest people, they are afraid of killing deep in their hearts. Once they form fear of Zhu Changluo in their hearts, they will Resist any changes that Zhu Changluo brings, even if these changes are good for them.

Therefore, for the sake of these poor people, Zhu Changluo also had to do some roundabout operations.

Only in this way can Zhu Changluo win the hearts of the people in the south of the Yangtze River, making the soon-to-be-established Zhili Shanghai Mansion a place of hope in the hearts of the people in the south of the Yangtze River, thus fundamentally weakening the power of traditional southern cities such as Nanjing, Suzhou, Wuxi, and Hangzhou in the southern system .

If the influence of these cities in Jiangnan is not weakened, after Zhu Changluo pats his ass and drives back to Beijing, what he did in Jiangnan will soon be forgotten and become a passing memory.

Therefore, going to the south of the Yangtze River this time must not only solve the problem, but also provide a new way out. Otherwise, new problems will arise after solving the problems. The only way to plan these problems in advance is to guide them within your sphere of influence. In order to make an optimal solution.

Zhu Changluo coaxed and frightened Shen Shixing down.

Then Zhu Changluo will start his own new plan.

So Zhu Changluo started a new plan that night.

When Zhu Changluo was having dinner with Emperor Wanli, Zhu Changluo offered Emperor Wanli a temptation that Emperor Wanli could not refuse!

Just after Zhu Changluo relieved the chopsticks for Emperor Wanli, Zhu Changluo said: "Father, you know that Jiangnan is really a magical paradise! My son saw the report of Jiangnan presented by Sun Siam, and he found a Very interesting thing."

Zhu Changluo's words immediately attracted the attention of Emperor Wanli, who asked curiously, "What is it?"

Zhu Changluo said: "There is an interesting phenomenon in Jiangsu and Zhejiang in the south of the Yangtze River. In the Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas, some places with relatively prosperous businesses have an expected commodity coupon. Some merchants' goods are very scarce because of their high quality. , However, these goods are also subject to certain natural conditions, resulting in very high requirements for seasons during production."

"Take silk as an example. The production of silk is limited by the production of raw silk, and the silkworms that produce raw silk can only weave silk and make cocoons in March, June, and September, and there is no raw silk available for the rest of the time. .”

"But the demand for silk fabrics in the market is in short supply, especially the Thai and Western people from the sea. They have a special liking for our Daming silk. Therefore, in order to receive more raw silk, those merchants who produce silk , weave more silk and earn more silver, they will pre-sell silk commodity certificates.”

"These pre-sale silk coupons can be exchanged for corresponding physical silk at designated merchants when the silk is on the market. Earn money in your hands."

"At that time, after seeing the operations of these Jiangsu and Zhejiang businessmen, I was also amazed. I really underestimated the wisdom of these people. The way they make money is really amazing."

After Zhu Changluo told the story, Emperor Wanli's jaw almost dropped from the shock of Zhu Changluo's story.

Emperor Wanli never expected that money could be earned so much, he was nothing but a white wolf!
Not to mention buying raw silk for silk production without spending a little money, and earning the profit from selling silk in advance, this is simply a divine operation.

Emperor Wanli immediately became interested!
Emperor Wanli said excitedly: "It's true that there are people beyond people, and there are people beyond the sky. There is really no limit to learning, and I have learned a lot."

At this time, Zhu Changluo couldn't help sighing again: "Father, this method is certainly profitable, but for those who really want to buy and sell silk, the risk is infinite. In case, the price of raw silk will increase in the coming year , These merchants directly closed down and entrapped those who spent a lot of money to buy silk gift certificates, and the problems that this created were also very troublesome."

"If it doesn't work, it will also affect the reputation of Daming in Taixi and overseas countries. Therefore, I have an immature idea. I am going to build a trading platform managed by the imperial court here, so that those who sell various The merchants of the pre-sale coupons must come here to review the sale, and at the same time, the imperial court can also charge a certain percentage of management fees and supervise their redemption.”

"Another point is that since the imperial court is the operator and regulator of this platform, it naturally needs to have a certain degree of credibility. Therefore, Erchen plans to set up a physical exchange mechanism. Those who buy and sell the corresponding commodity coupons can use the coupons The corresponding physical goods are exchanged here, and the imperial court only needs to charge some corresponding storage management fees and some transaction fees.”

Before Zhu Changluo could finish these words, Emperor Wanli became excited again. Emperor Wanli's business talent was much stronger than Zhu Changluo's.

After what Zhu Changluo said, Emperor Wanli immediately realized the power of this platform. As long as there is this platform, the imperial court will have a steady stream of financial resources pouring into the treasury.

For the Wanli Emperor, who was committed to accumulating astronomical wealth, this was simply a huge temptation!

Emperor Wanli said directly: "First of all, let this platform be handed over to Xishan Huangzhuang for operation, and then hand it over to the court when the operation is mature. There are too few officials in the court who are good at management. If such an important matter is entrusted to They, they will mess things up. Therefore, I think it is best to operate and manage Xishan Huangzhuang!"

Zhu Changluo looked at Emperor Wanli in surprise, he did not object to Emperor Wanli's proposal, Zhu Changluo said: "Since father and emperor have such worries, I will hand over the matter to Xishan Huangzhuang, and the various fees collected at that time This kind of expenses will also be handed over to the imperial father's internal funds for safekeeping."

After Emperor Wanli heard Zhu Changluo's arrangement, he immediately smiled and narrowed his eyes.Or his own son understands himself.

Emperor Wanli said: "Okay, let's do this!"

Zhu Changluo hummed, and then told Emperor Wanli the idea of ​​setting up the Zhili Shanghai Mansion here. In Zhu Changluo's vision, the newly established Zhili Shanghai Mansion will serve as the financial and trade center of Jiangnan, inheriting the development of the entire Jiangnan region. All the commercial activities have attracted the redundant manpower from Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions to come here, making this place a new place like Xishan Huangzhuang!

After listening to Zhu Changluo's description of the future of Zhili's Shanghai Mansion, Emperor Wanli also nodded directly and said: "Da Ming, you are in charge and you have the final say. Don't tell me about this kind of thing. There are many things in Xishan Huangzhuang, and I am very busy. Yes. I will help after the Zhili Shanghai Mansion is established."

Zhu Changluo laughed directly and said, "It's all my fault that I'm not good at it. I can't manage a small Huangzhuang well, and I have to worry about my father."

Emperor Wanli also said with a smile: "You and my father and son are not enough to thank you? This is what I should do. Come and eat!"

The financial weapon is finally being used.
