Liu Ruyan's mouth was covered by Liu Ruyun, and she was speechless.
She could only blink hard at Liu Ruyun to express that she knew and was determined not to say anything.
But she still couldn't understand that she wanted to follow Zhao Min just to get close to Zhu Han?
Now that there is no one around, can't the two of them even tell the truth to each other?
Liu Ruyun glared at her biological sister fiercely, and reminded her bitterly: "If you have no brains, then speak less. Zhao Min is the woman of His Royal Highness, and she is our master. Do you think she is willing?"
Are we close to the King of England?"
Women are jealous, especially when it comes to men. Zhu Han is so good, who wouldn't want to have it all to himself? How could Zhao Min approach Zhu Han with a coquettish bitch?
Liu Ruyun thought that if they could walk out of the orphanage and follow Zhao Min, they would have stepped into the gate of heaven with one foot. Are they still dreaming of reaching the sky and approaching Zhu Han in one step?
It’s simply a fool’s dream!
If Liu Ruyan was not her biological sister, she would not care even if Liu Ruyan died outside.
Looking at Liu Ruyan who was still confused, Liu Ruyun reminded again:
"You and my sister are in the orphanage, and I can still take care of you. But now that we are with the master and we are not together, I can't protect you from many things, so you must talk less and think more. In case anything happens,
If you say something wrong or offend someone you shouldn't offend, no one will care about you even if you die! Don't forget your current identity, you are still the concubine of the guilty minister, do you understand?"
Both dead and ignored, Liu Ruyun's reminder really frightened Liu Ruyan. The fear in her heart prompted her to remember Liu Ruyun's reminder, and she kept nodding her head to speak and then covering her mouth with her hands.
He nodded to show that he knew.
"Oh, my silly sister!"
Liu Ruyun was very helpless. If he had known that he was cruel at first, he would have just thrown Liu Ruyan away.
…
Zhao Min recently took in two women to work with her, and they were also concubines of Yu Tongyuan and Yu Tongjiang. Zhao Min did not hide this news from Zhu Han, and he should know about it due to both emotion and reason.
After Zhu Han heard this, he didn't care. He just said to Zhao Min: "Yu Tongyuan and Yu Tongjiang are my old subordinates. They died but I promised them to help take care of their families. Since you have chosen these two people,
Then you should make good use of it. If it doesn't work, you can make arrangements yourself."
Yu Tongyuan and Yu Tongjiang were in love with Zhu Han, but their two women had nothing to do with Zhu Han. If they were their wives or children, Zhu Han might ask Zhao Min to help take care of her, but the concubine...
How can Zhu Han manage this?
Zhao Min is a smart person, she knows how to win people's hearts.
"I was worried that you would be merciful and help them all. It seems that I thought too much." He sat on Zhu Han's lap, hugged Zhu Han and kissed him, then said with a smile: "Your Majesty, do you want me to treat you well?"
Give you a reward?"
"No, no, no."
Zhu Han quickly refused, and then said: "I have other things to do tonight and can't accompany you."
These days, Liu Sanniang seems to have overturned the jealousy jar.
If Zhao Min is added to the mix, wouldn’t it drain him dry?
Although you are in good health, you must exercise moderation.
…
The next day, Zhu Han was bored, so he took his servants to go to Nancheng. Zhao Min wanted to renovate Nancheng and transform it into a beautiful small attic. If it is done well, it will definitely cause a certain craze.
By then, wouldn’t the entire Yingtian Mansion house renovation business belong to Zhao Min?
Of course, Zhu Han is also responsible for this. Cement and steel bars are in short supply. Nowadays, construction is going on all over the Ming Dynasty. The production of steel has not increased, so the prices of cement and steel bars have naturally increased.
When Zhu Han arrived at Nancheng, he saw that foundations had already been dug for part of the vacant land, and courtyard walls had been erected in places where the progress was faster. Even though Zhu Han understood what Zhao Min meant, she did not directly demolish Nancheng.
First renovate a batch of houses to free up a certain number of empty houses, then demolish and build again. The winter in Yingtian this year is not very cold, so it is suitable to build a house.
After an inspection, Zhu Han was very satisfied. Zhao Min was not greedy for too much and was still doing what he could. However, this slow-paced approach would not last long. Once someone noticed the benefits brought by urban transformation, they should contact Zhao Min.
People who are smart will swarm in, and Zhao Min won't be able to slow down even if he wants to. Then it will be another test for Zhao Min.
While wandering around, Zhu Han saw Shen Wansan walking towards him.
"His Royal Highness..."
Shen Wansan walked quickly and wanted to bow to salute, but Zhu Han stopped him: "I'm wearing civilian clothes today, so I don't need to salute. If Boss Shen wants to talk to me, just talk to me directly."
"yes."
Shen Wansan walked to Zhu Han and praised Zhu Han: "King of England, the boss Zhao you sent is really a shrewd businessman. I am still working hard on food and clothing, and she is the one who comes after me and walks ahead of me."
It’s ahead.”
Zhu Han said: "Food, clothing, housing and transportation are a major issue for people's livelihood. No matter which industry you seize, you will become a wealthy businessman. Boss Shen does not need to be envious. Without your help, she would not have grown so fast."
Hearing Zhu Han's words, Shen Wansan immediately understood that Zhu Han was talking about digging a hole for Zhao Min when doing business. After hearing this, Shen Wanshan couldn't laugh or cry, but he also apologized sincerely: "Doing business.
I'm used to it. When negotiating, I only think about benefiting myself. When I realized it afterwards and wanted to make up for my mistakes, Your Highness had already tricked me. Your Highness is the person who is the best at doing business. Shen admires me."
"Come on this!"
Zhu Han would not listen to Shen Wansan's explanation and said to him directly: "You are a businessman, but you are the top businessman in the Ming Dynasty. In addition to the task of promoting the commercial development of the Ming Dynasty, you also have other obligations. When doing business, you must
Give full play to your leading role and contribute more to the people instead of making money to enrich your own pockets! Shen Wansan, your success in business today is inseparable from your talent, but you have also benefited from the development of Ming Dynasty.
How do dividends and profits come from? Isn't it obtained from the people? We must learn to take it from the people and use it for the people, rather than making more useless money."
When Shen Wansan heard Zhu Han's words, he couldn't help but nodded, and said to Zhu Han sincerely: "Wansan has kept in mind the teachings of the King of England. I have learned from them today. Please rest assured, Your Highness, I will definitely play my role and lead more businessmen."
Contribute to the development and construction of our Ming Dynasty."
This is just the beginning of the chat, there will naturally be sequels.
Shen Wansan took the initiative to find him at this time, and he must have something to ask for. Zhu Han guessed that Shen Wansan had the idea of renovating the house, but he did not say it directly, but asked him: "Boss Shen came to see me today. What do you want?"
thing?"
"It's not a big deal. I just feel that Boss Zhao is the only one doing this house renovation business, so it doesn't play a big role. If more businessmen can join in, it will be much faster."
Shen Wansan's reaction was completely within Zhu Han's expectation. Zhu Han said nothing and waited for Shen Wansan to follow up: "Your Highness, house renovation is easy, but the raw materials are too few. If the production of cement and steel can be increased,
It can promote the speed of house renovation faster.”
This makes sense. The economic base determines the superstructure. This is how it is when building a house. If you want to speed up building a house, the supply of raw materials must keep up. Bricks and stones are easy to talk about. You can produce bricks and stones wherever you go. At most, you can build a few.
Brick kilns can be used for firing, but cement and steel bars are hard currencies, and current production cannot keep up with the progress required by the Ming Dynasty. This is really a big problem.
Zhu Han also pretended to be clear: "Steel bars and cement are also in great need of these raw materials for the construction of Ming Dynasty. Zhao Min can get these things only for my sake. The production of raw materials is too slow."
"right!"
Shen Wansan agreed with Zhu Han's point of view.
He also knew that with Zhu Han's wisdom, he had long discovered the disadvantages of insufficient raw materials, and now he was waiting for him to bring it up.
If you want to get steel and concrete, you must invest money first.
This investment is not a small amount. Zhu Han dug a big hole for Shen Wansan. Shen Wansan knew it was a hole but had to dig into it. He smiled bitterly and said to Zhu Han: "Your Highness, if you have anything to say, just say it.
, I, Shen Wansan, listen attentively and will follow your instructions, Your Highness, and will never cheat or cheat."
"Hahaha, Old Shen is a smart man." Zhu Han laughed and said to Shen Wansan: "Old Shen, the current shortage of steel and cement production is because these materials are produced by the Ming government.
, buying the right to produce and sell steel and cement, wouldn’t this expand the scale? You recruit workers by yourself to produce steel and cement, and the government can put more people into the mining industry, killing two birds with one stone, right?”
This is the correct answer that everyone knows, but as long as Zhu Han doesn't say it, this answer is equivalent to non-existence. Only when he says it is the real answer.
Shen Wansan quickly flattered him, but Zhu Han didn't want to hear it: "Okay, don't you think of this answer? You are just waiting for me to say it. You, Zhou Gushan, and Zhao Min will invest. I don't care how to divide it.
But you and Zhou Gushan come to get the money. If you want to take more, you have to invest more money."
"..."
Shen Wansan: I would like to take all the shares, but you have to agree.
Shen Wansan had the strength to invest in the privatization of steel and cement, but Zhu Han set the prerequisites. Zhou Gushan and Zhao Min had to join in. No matter how much money Shen Wansan had, he would not be able to spend it.
Are you kidding me? Will Mr. Zhu make the top businessman of Ming Dynasty become an oligarch in a certain industry?
impossible!
Shen Wansan is just a younger brother to Zhu Han. Zhu Han's business ability is not weaker than Shen Wansan's, and he has business knowledge that is seven hundred years ahead of him. He can crush Shen Wansan in all aspects. The most important thing is that Zhu Han
In the Ming Dynasty, it can be said that one person is less than ten thousand people, and he has very heavy authority. How could Shen Wansan have any room to resist in front of Zhu Han?
In fact, developing the real estate industry also has another benefit: stabilizing the financial order of Ming Dynasty.
With the expansion of Ming's military force, today's Ming Dynasty is truly rich, with more and more money, and the people are getting richer and richer. The sudden increase in money will cause the Ming Dynasty's money to depreciate more and more.
Therefore, we must find a way to allow money to circulate.
Real estate is a good piggy bank.
Today, the population of Ming Dynasty is more than 200 million. In the next ten or twenty years, the population will still show explosive growth. Therefore, the real estate business can maintain development for at least fifty years. In such a long time, countless money will flow into
The real estate industry will be a great help in stabilizing the financial order of Ming Dynasty.
Moreover, today’s real estate industry will not turn ordinary people into ‘housing slaves’.
For example, if a house is worth ten gold coins, the people do not need to pay too much interest. It is enough to return the money to buy the house to the real estate dealer in ten or twenty years. Why is a house without interest not worth buying? And it also reduces the risk of buying a house.
Why not take care of the burden placed on the common people?
After Zhu Han returned, he told Zhu Biao about the gradual liberalization of steel and cement production, and also popularized financial knowledge to Zhu Biao. Although Zhu Biao was a little confused after hearing this, he caught Zhu Han's words.
The key factor inside: "Uncle, what you are saying is that the sudden increase in money in our Ming Dynasty will cause the money to depreciate. If it is not controlled, the devaluation will be very fast, and the money in the hands of the people will shrink significantly.
?And the development of real estate can slow down the depreciation of people's money, right?"
Zhu Han nodded: "That's almost the truth, but it's just scratching the surface. In the future, you will have to conduct more in-depth research with people from the Ministry of Household Affairs on how to maintain the business development of the Ming Dynasty to make it orderly and controllable."
"I understand." Zhu Biao followed his advice and believed in Zhu Han's words. As for how much profit Zhu Han could get from real estate development, Zhu Biao never thought about it. Zhu Han wanted money directly.
Just go to the Iwami Gin Mountain on the Japanese island to mine silver. The annual output of eight million silver coins cannot be spent by Zhu Han.
Zhu Han did this to stabilize the business order of the Ming Dynasty. In order to avoid causing a financial crisis, he asked people around him to do business this time, so that when a crisis breaks out, he can control the crisis within a reasonable range.
"Okay, let's do it."
Zhu Biao directly agreed to Zhu Han, and then said: "Uncle, this matter does not need to go through the court first. Now the court has just experienced the empty seal and the grain tax. People are panicking, and there is a huge gap in officials in various places.
, I am worried about how to dispatch officials now, so you can promote this matter, and wait for the court to stabilize, and then the court will gradually intervene. "
Zhu Han heard Zhu Biao's words and nodded in agreement. This person is the most important, especially the officials of the government.
After thinking about it, Zhu Han said to Zhu Biao: "The Ming Dynasty's imperial examination is about to begin, right? Biao'er, have you ever thought about making certain improvements to the content of the imperial examination, from emphasizing classics to strategy?"
"
"Uncle, do you think so too?"
Zhu Biao immediately became happy and said to Zhu Han: "We thought of it together. What is the use of our Ming Dynasty in raising so many officials who lose their schoolbags? Emphasis on strategy is the way of the imperial examination in the Ming Dynasty!"
