Chapter 128
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but secretly say that the fourteenth prince was so unique in integrating the Thirteen ranks. This method is really incredible and unheard of. It really makes people see the eyes. The nine businessmen who like to go back first know this result, but I wonder what the reaction would be?
After Yinzhen gave the order, he said jokingly, "The first establishment of the Thirteen Frontiers was the court based on the principle of using official business and commerce to build business. It has been more than twenty years since the court, but you have deeply disappointed me. After more than twenty years, the Thirteen Frontiers are still a mess and cannot form a monopoly between the inside and the outside. [.]
You often deal with Westerners. Can't you feel the changes in Western business groups? Times are changing, and you cannot always stick to the rules and keep pace with the times. The Thirteen Industry was originally born for monopoly. For the outside world, the Thirteen Industry should work together to monopolize all exported goods and make the most of the money from foreign investors. Internally, one is to monopolize all industries as much as possible, and the other is to handle the relationship with the vast number of individual businessmen. Not to mention the equal benefits, at least they should make profits.
Monopoly requires capital accumulation and time, and it cannot be achieved overnight. To achieve the purpose of monopoly, public transactions must be established, and public transactions are directly placed under the name of customs supervision. If you discuss the specific system, I will give you three days to come up with a specific public transaction system.
What point should I ask for here? The total number of thirteen companies is controlled at fifteen companies. There can only be fewer, not more than more. Access must be strict. There must be more than three existing merchants in the Thirteen companies to provide insurance. The amount must be more than 500,000 yuan, and the deposit must not be less than 100,000 taels. The punishment system must be strict. If any behavior is damaged by the public industry, it will be resolutely kicked out. The family will not be allowed to enter the Thirteen companies again for the whole life.
I would like to remind you carefully that Guangdong Customs will not decline, but will only become more and more prosperous. The court can be specialized and can also be relaxed. This year, Guangdong Customs will liberalize the export of local cloth."
When a group of businessmen heard these words, they were all in a state of great excitement, monopoly, public operations, and relaxation. Guangdong Customs is still the top priority. The Thirteen commerce will not decline, but will usher in greater development. The crowd forcibly suppressed the excitement in their hearts and said in unison: "The emperor is respectful to the prince's order."
Yinzhen nodded with satisfaction and ordered: "Zhu Guanxian, in the future, all foreign-buying goods must be sealed by merchants and public trades before they can get on board. In addition, porters at Huangpu Port Terminal must also be integrated and placed under the direct leadership of Guangdong Customs. The wages will increase for them. If you dare to load and unload foreign ships, you will be severely punished. You will take several measures to avoid monopolizing foreign merchants. Not only Guangdong Customs, but also the customs across the country must do this."
After everyone left, Zhu Yanzhi chuckled and said, "The prince hides the subordinates so hard."
Yinzhen looked at his Wuqing's forehead and not only smiled, "Hehe, I am here to help you win people's hearts."
The next day, in the courtyard, Mr. Deng pointed to a large simple map on the wall panel and said in a deep voice: "Guangde Park faces the street in front and the river in the back. There are large wooden houses on both sides. The guards with ideas are about 300. Brothers, don't underestimate them. These guards are not pheasant-style. Now I will follow my arrangements:
Tang Qi and Ruan Jiu, you two set fires on the left and right sides. After setting the fire, you will be responsible for setting off the streets on both sides. A large group of people arrived and fireworks were set off immediately to report.
Lu Zi was preparing for the big boat on the river, and the small boats responded. After succeeding, he boarded the boat from behind Guangde Park.
Second Artillery, you bring twenty archers to guard both sides of the gate of Guangde Garden.
Xiaowu, you bring the remaining thirty archers and lie in ambush on the back wall of Guangde Park.
Bacha, prepare to hit the pillars of the wall in case of hard attacks.
Sanduo and Sixi led the other brothers to follow me to fight.
When the fire is lit at the fifth hour, the fires on both sides will be in chaos. Those who escape from their lives and those who put out fires will definitely run around the streets. There will also be chaos in Guangde Garden. The target must run out, one from the front door, and the other from the backyard. It is estimated that the possibility of going from the front door is large. I took my brothers to lie on the front door. As soon as I found the target, we would take the random rush over. Xiaowu, if the target is walking from the backyard, you will set off fireworks and we will follow and cover it up.
Everyone should pay attention, go straight to the target, and the archer should pay special attention to not let the target miss the net. I remind you again not to fight. After you succeed, you will retreat from the riverside immediately. If you break up, you will first get out of the city and meet in Xiangshan. Do you remember clearly?"
"I'm clear, brother, it's not the first time we've done this business."
"That's right, doing business with the boss is smooth. Every time the arrangement is not airtight, I never missed it."
In Guangde Garden, Yinzhen summoned Hong Wanshan again. After he greeted him, Yinzhen asked straight to the point: "How much is your current fund in Wanlong Travel?"
When Hong Wanshan heard this, he was excited, but he still replied calmly: "Reply to Prince Xun, the sales volume of tea in Guangdong Customs is very low, now only 400 dan per year. Wanlong Bank acquired it from a single merchant and sold it to a foreign merchant, so the cost required is not large, only tens of thousands of taels."
More than 100,000 yuan? Yinzhen frowned. This capital is too small, what can he do?
Hong Wanshan has been in the mall for more than 20 years, observing his words and expressions, and comprehension of people's hearts. What is Yinzhen's identity? How can he be summoned without a reason? He asked about the funds and wanted to support himself. How could such a rare opportunity be easily let go of. He immediately said: "Prince Xun, the capital is still a bit expensive, but it is difficult for all industries to interfere..."
Just have the capital, Yinzhen browsed, "Can Wanlong Travel get 400,000 yuan?"
At this point, even if you are selling your money, you have to pay it back. Hong Wanshan replied in one go: "Go back to the prince, you can."
"Okay, I will invest another 400,000 yuan." Yinzhen said slowly: "Bandung Bank will give you 20% of the shares. Within two years, Bandung Bank will monopolize the tea exports of the four Southeast customs, and build its own purchasing channels. It will directly cooperate with the tea farm, not only green tea, but also black tea. In short, can it be done if monopolizes the national tea exports?"
Not to mention giving 20% or 10% or Hong Wanshan has no objection. He can directly get into Yinzhen's relationship, even if it is worth spending a million, but when will the tea be invested so much money? If you can't make money, what will Prince Xun think of himself? After hesitating, he said with courage: "Prince Xun, these are all fine. The problem is that the sales of this tea are too low. If you sell such outlets, there will be no profit, and it is even possible..."
"Haha, don't you believe in my eyes?" Yinzhen chuckled confidently.
Hong Wanshan couldn't help but curse himself insincerely, "Who is the Fourteenth Master? That's a legend in the business world. Will he throw 600,000 silver in vain? It seems that he has seen the future of tea. He hurriedly bowed and smiled, "The Lord Xun is really confused, which makes Prince Xu laugh."
"Yeah." Yinzhen chuckled, "I focus on making tea, and I need to focus on the long term. The name Wanlong is not grand enough. It is called Wanlilong, which is easy for foreigners to accept. In the future, this name will have to be spread across the ocean."
Yinzhen changed his name personally, which was extremely glorious. Hong Wanshan hurriedly thanked him, "Thank you the name of the prince."
Yinzhen smiled calmly and said, "Your Hong family, I have learned about it for the first time. Since you have followed me, you can't treat you badly. You asked your second son to join my personal guard. In addition, you will also pick three and five of your people."
There was such a benefit! Hong Wanshan was stunned and was ecstatic. This was no different from the empty title he bought. His son had a serious background when he entered the personal guard and had a clan member. He had really reached the top in one step. When he came to his senses, he immediately knelt down and kowtowed to thank him.
