Chapter 213 The First Leak of the Birthday Outline News
When everyone talked about this business, their minds opened up and everyone had something to say.
Li Gu first said: "You brothers don't know, but the boss knows that I once had a hotel called Liushui Pavilion. Although it was burnt down by the rebels a few days ago, the ability to open a store is still there, and the Liushui Pavilion is still there." The pavilion can be built by just investing some money, but this time we do not plan to expand the scale and make it three times the original size. In this way, not only can it be used as a place for our celebrations in the future, but we can also secretly bury a team of people to specially Responsible for inquiring into Jianghu news, the boss, what do you think?"
After hearing this, Shi Jin couldn't help but recall the scene in the Water Pavilion that day. Everything there seemed to come alive in his heart, the singing and dancing birds there, the delicious food there, and the allure there. The meals were all top-notch in Shi Jin's eyes. If they were expanded three times, how magnificent and spectacular would it be? Shi Jin felt extremely beautiful just thinking about it, and he couldn't help but clasp his hands. He said in a voice: "Okay, okay, okay, when the new Liushui Pavilion is built, we can all gather together and have a good drink."
Everyone was happy and encouraged after hearing this, thinking that the days to come would really get better and better.
"This is good, but I'm afraid I can't make a lot of money just by selling meat and selling hotels," Di Yan stood up and said at this time.
"What do you mean, dear brother?" Shi Jin asked Di Yan, looking at his serious look.
Di Yan looked around and said: "Dong Xi and I both came from the marketplace. We can't do other big businesses, but I know what a small golden nest is in this marketplace."
"You mean, gambling house," Dong Xi and Gu Yanbing were inspired to respond in unison.
Liu Sanye thought for a while and said: "This is really good, it is a place to attract money."
When Di Yan saw that everyone was agreeing with him, he took a step closer and spoke more clearly, saying: "There are dozens of gambling houses, large and small, in Huayin County. It is not easy to manage them well. Why don't we open one?" A big gambling house will buy all the small ones and start a big business. We will use our power to manage the gambling house fairly. No one dares to look bad at us. And I happen to know some powerful bookmakers in the gambling house. I'll go and invite you personally, there's no reason why I shouldn't come. That's when the business will definitely make a profit."
Zhu Wu thought for a while, looked at Shi Jin and said, "I think it will work."
"Since everyone has agreed, let's go ahead and do it. The necessary capital will be deducted from the gang's treasury first," Shi Jin's words meant that he had officially approved these businesses.
Now everyone has their own plans, and these few things will keep everyone busy for a while. After all, this business is like a war. Although the battle is not to bleed, there is still energy and risk to restrain such things.
In order for everyone not to aim too high, Shi Jin stopped everyone's blind investment trend in time, and said: "Economic construction also needs to be done slowly. Now the economy is supported by logistics, but fighting is still a head-to-head affair, and there are many things to do like recruiting troops. Don't worry about one thing at the expense of the other, and end up with more losses than you gain. The road still has to be taken step by step. If you take a big step, it will be easy to lose the eggs. Therefore, if there is a good business, let's do it together, but if you want to do it, do it well and make it big. Don't Greedy for too much,”
"What the great master said is absolutely true," everyone understood immediately upon hearing this.
Everyone has their own ideas, and Shi Jin is not a person who wants to be idle. But at this moment, Shi Jin is not thinking of a specific industry, but a business that is far away from them, but very close to business. This thing, not only can money make money and profit, but it can also be used as a channel to connect the gang's treasury with the incoming and outgoing of various businesses.
Shi Jin thought about it for a moment, and realized that the existing silver was only the money in the treasury of Huayin County and Guanxi Town, but after a rough calculation, the two places together amounted to about 10,000 taels, so Although Shi Jin had never thought about how to make this thing, under this moment of inspiration, Shi Jin also knew that this business would not be possible at only two to three hundred thousand taels each, so this The words rolled around his lips but did not come out.
Shi Jin couldn't help but sigh: "Economic development also takes time. It can take a few months and a half at the earliest, or a year at the end. In the long run, it is an indispensable measure. However, it is still difficult to quench the thirst of the near. At present, brothers’ salary is not a small amount every month. If it continues like this, I’m afraid it’s not an option.”
"Now that the troops stationed in Huazhou have been wiped out, if there is no other way, we have to fight to support the war," Zhu Wu was a little reluctant to do this, but at present, if he wants to get a lot of capital in a short time, he can only Only high-risk things can be exchanged.
Liu Tang thought for a moment and stood up with his head lowered. He seemed to be hesitant. After a pause, he said: "Master, I have some news. I heard it from my subordinates this morning. However, it is accurate. Whether it is, we still don’t know, I don’t know whether I should be a general or not.”
"It's okay to tell me anything you want," Shi Jin looked at Liu Tang and couldn't help but laugh a little. Liu Tang was usually an open and honest man, but now he was hesitant and unpredictable. .
Liu Tang pondered for a moment and then said: "According to reports from his subordinates, Liang Taishu of the famous Beijing government bought 100,000 gold and silver jewels and sent them to Tokyo to celebrate the birthday of his father-in-law, Taishi Cai."
"Birthday plan," Shi Jin exclaimed, and everyone was paying attention. Everyone stared at Liu Tang with their eyes wide open and looked at Liu Tang in disbelief. You must know that this birthday plan is a big business for a bank. Although the risk is high, but The rewards are also huge, this is simply a piece of fat, who in the world doesn’t want to have it. During the birthday season every year, before Master Cai has even made preparations for his birthday, Liang Zhongshu collects the gold and silver treasures of the common people’s wealthy businessmen early, but even more than him. The ones who are still busy early on are all kinds of people running around in the rivers and lakes. They hide in every inconspicuous corner and secretly plan to steal the birthday card. To this end, they have arranged various people in the front and back yard of Liang Taishu's house. The people and horses are the spies, and the exact date of the birth chart has become the most valuable news in the world.
In the early years, birthday packages were transported by escort agencies, but it was too easy to rob them, which aroused everyone's covetousness. Liang Taishu had no choice but to make a big move, sending a general every time to lead hundreds of soldiers to escort them all the way to Tokyo. However, such ostentation attracted the impeachment of some direct officials in the imperial court, and it was really not good-looking to bring it to the emperor. Therefore, in recent years, Liang Zhongshu had spent a lot of time and money on Taishi Cai's birthday. With his thoughts in mind, he selected the most capable generals, assigned a hundred soldiers, one to ten, and changed into the common people's disguises. Sometimes he was a rice merchant transporting rice, sometimes he was a gangster, and he played many tricks. , However, those gangs in the world have never given up, nor have they blocked their steps to intercept the birthday card. Instead, after several years of evolution, the birth card has become more and more mysterious and mysterious. It's weird. It's not only a battle of wits and courage, but also a big drama.
In the past, Shi Jin and everyone here had the idea of robbing the birthday card, but it was really just wishful thinking, so they never cared about it before. However, as time goes by, circumstances change, and now everyone in Shi Jin has the strength to do it. Take a chance on your birthday, so when everyone heard the news, they couldn't help but tremble deeply, for fear that their ears had heard it wrong.
"That's right, it's the birthday guide. It's precisely because the news came too suddenly and too easily that I had some doubts," Liu Tang took a step closer and said, "It's just that although our brothers can obtain this birthday guide based on our strength, But, realistically speaking, it is probably much more difficult for us than others,"
Shi Jin had a sharp mind and figured out the key points after just a brief thought. So he got up and walked around the courtyard while analyzing with everyone: "Although the destination of the birthday card is Tokyo, I heard that every year The land transportation methods are all different, and now that we have occupied this place, they will definitely bypass it far away. We cannot be sure where they can rob it, but we can only be sure that they will not be able to rob it at home. That is to say , If we want to make plans for birthdays, we must leave Huayin County and go deep into other state capitals,"
"Now, we are facing the situation of consolidating the city, and all of us are wanted criminals by the Song Dynasty court. It will be even more difficult for us to operate in other state capitals," Zhu Wu said and took the He caught Shi Jin's words and said what Shi Jin didn't say.
"The difficulty is indeed very difficult, but it does not mean that there is absolutely no way." Shi Jin changed the topic when everyone frowned: "Now, information is the most important, and the time for the birth plan to start every year is different. Sure, and every time there are several groups of people dispatched at the same time, it is difficult to distinguish which is real and which is imaginary. Therefore, if you want to do big things, you must go deep into Daming Mansion in Beijing. However, how many of you and I are there? It’s absolutely impossible to go,”
"How about I find some sisters," Aunt Hong stood up at this time.
Shi Jin looked at Aunt Hong's beautiful and serious face, shook his head gently and said: "You are all gorgeous and beautiful. Suddenly there are so many people in Beijing. You will not fail to attract the attention of the government. You If you want to go, it will just be a cover to deliberately attract the attention of the government. What really needs to be done is to have some capable brothers make a move in secret."
"Then... Mr. Master, who are these brothers? Just say a word and I will go through fire and water without hesitation," Shi Qian said and stood up with his fists clasped. Everyone clasped their fists in response.
Shi Jin shook his head slightly and said: "These people are neither you nor me, they are just smarter..."
