What these guys say is very nice, and the money they say is about a thousand taels.

If placed in the homes of ordinary people, it would definitely be a huge sum of money, but if placed in front of a machine like Dynasty, it would be a bit unsatisfactory.

"I think you have misunderstood. I just want to do business with you."

Business?

When everyone heard this, they were stunned for a moment, and then became interested.

Lu Chensheng asked them to come here before, and they were doing business together, and now the business is still booming.

"What business are you talking about, sir?"

The head of the Li family stood up and asked.

"Build merchant ships and send envoys overseas to develop trade. Everyone knows that trade with the Western Regions can be profitable. The price of our silk, porcelain, and tea can be increased several times when shipped there.

If we can open up sea trade and trade with overseas countries, then the value of these things will not only increase several times, but may increase dozens of times. How much money can we make from a round trip?"

Lu Chensheng began to seduce the heads of these aristocratic families.

In fact, it cannot be said to be a ploy, after all, what Lu Chensheng said is true.

Once overseas trade is opened, more money will be made. Commodities such as silk and porcelain are extremely profitable.

The group of people in charge were also stunned when they heard this.

"How can you be sure that if you can make money like this, how can you be sure that there are other countries overseas?"

"You and others should know about overseas visitors, so how come you don't know about other overseas countries? What's more, even if there are not, there are other islands and other continents. If no one is found, wouldn't they all be ours?

You can mine and farm, they are all resources, why would anyone be dissatisfied with the small size of the land?"

Lu Chensheng continued, "What's more, there are countless fish and seafood in the sea. These are resources. As long as you are willing to pay, the money earned can be shared with your family."

Everyone was immediately moved when they heard this.

If you think about it carefully, what Lu Chensheng said really makes sense.

There are indeed overseas visitors, but I have never seen them bring anything with them. Most of them came after their ships were destroyed by strong winds and waves and then drifted over. They seemed to be extremely poor.

"There are indeed overseas visitors. Even if they don't have any gold, silver or jewelry, they are enough. We can use them to mine and farm, which can make us money."

Lu Chensheng's current decree is to directly abolish the practice of enslaving the people by aristocratic families.

The common people can have their own fields to cultivate, but this actually harms the interests of the aristocratic families.

However, Lu Chensheng's policies later benefited them, so they had no choice but to ignore this benefit.

According to Lu Chensheng, when people have money in their hands, it is easier for them to make money.

Just like the loom Lu Chensheng gave them, their weaving has been greatly improved, and the number of pieces of cloth has begun to increase.

Now that the goods are available, who will buy them? The common people are always the majority of consumers.

Lu Chensheng allowed the people to have fields to cultivate, taxes were reduced, and the people became rich and had money to buy these goods.

In this way, the money can still fall into the hands of the aristocratic family in the end.

And the aristocratic family needs to hire people to work, and the people make money again.

This is actually a virtuous circle. The aristocratic families make money, and the people will not go hungry and can put on clothes again.

Lu Chensheng had told them about the economic cycle. These children from aristocratic families were not fools and they all understood this principle.

And just because they understand, they also know that manpower is actually a kind of resource.

I put it politely, saying that I was asking these people to help, but in reality, I was enslaving them.

Why do they have such an idea? They were inspired by Lu Chensheng.

Lu Chensheng has a large number of slave men under his command, who are all used for mining, digging canals, and doing all kinds of heavy work.

They have analyzed some of Lu Chensheng's behavior and know that since Lu Chensheng does this, he will never object to them doing the same.

And now, they are increasingly aware of the importance of human resources.

Because they can't drive the people at will, they now have to pay a lot of money to make the people work, which makes them feel painful.

If someone does the work for you for free, how much money will you save?

Lu Chensheng does not allow them to enslave the country's people, but he does not have that much compassion for others.

This is a direct expression of the saying that those who are not of my race must have different minds.

"Sir, we need to go back and discuss it. This matter is important and needs to be discussed with the elders."

"Sir, please allow me to wait for some time for discussion."

The people in charge spoke one by one.

It was now very clear to them that they really needed to go back and discuss it with their families.

The matter is serious and one has to be careful.

"Well, I hope you can convince your people when you go back that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If you miss it, you will have no chance."

Lu Chensheng nodded and allowed them to go back to discuss with the tribe.

Upon hearing this, the principals smiled and nodded one by one, and then left in a hurry.

Du Rufang and others looked at it dumbfounded. How can you do this if you need money?

From this point of view, the money matter seems to be with Lu Chensheng, and it is not a problem at all.

"If your Excellency is able to recruit money in this way, why are you so cautious when spending money?"

Du Rufang was a little dissatisfied. He could see that these people were already moved, and he also felt the huge benefits contained in it.

Then I thought about asking my family members to participate as well.

It is difficult for him to participate as an official here, but it should be possible for members of his family to participate.

"Tsk, if I didn't have money, I wouldn't use this trick. Sharing some benefits with them, although it can tie them tightly to me, is a bit uncomfortable."

Lu Chensheng snorted dissatisfied.

Some benefits could benefit the country and the people if shared with them, so Lu Chensheng didn't care.

But in this matter, he can take care of it on his own.

It's a pity that there is a shortage of money right now, and Lu Chensheng has no choice. Calling these people to participate together can speed up the development of the empire.

Lu Chensheng has always been very anxious about this matter, and now he can only let them participate together.

Du Rufang opened his mouth slightly as he listened, probably not expecting to get such an answer.

"If your Excellency has other ways to raise some silver, why don't you raise more?"
