Despite the twists and turns, things are finally back on track.
Aristocratic families are essentially merchants, but what they work hard to earn is not money, but reputation and power.
What is a merchant? He dares to rebel even if he makes ten times the profit. Although this sentence is not absolute, it can accurately describe the behavior of merchants.
The city of Goguryeo, in Chu Qing's words, seemed to be the city of Chang people.
In Chu Qing's words, the people of Goguryeo seemed to have become the hard labor of the people of Chang.
The land of Goguryeo and the Kou Zhong in Chuqing seemed to have been planted with everyone's crops.
No one could sit still. Chu Qing was like a master of pyramid schemes. He understood everything and everyone applauded.
With pearls and jade in front, Chu Qing destroyed Yingdao, and brought back boatloads of silver mines and gold, silver and jewels. They said that war can make a fortune, and everyone believed it.
If you want to get rich, you can't not invest. Investment involves risks. The project you are investing in now is Goguryeo, and the risk is whether your Majesty can win. In other words, the faster and more everyone prepares, the lower the risk will be.
The returns are higher.
In fact, if it were someone else who said this, if the "civilians" were to pay for the regular army to fight the war, these people would definitely stay away.
But it was Chu Qing who said this, and he often did it, not just once or twice, but no one saw any reward every time, and Chu Qing didn't say there was any reward at the beginning.
This time there is a reward, Chu Qing said it himself.
Everyone is not afraid that Chu Qing will turn his back on him, because this matter is related to His Majesty.
Chu Qing can turn his back on others, but Huang Laosi can't. If the king of a country doesn't even recognize this matter, then the person sitting on the dragon throne is not the emperor but a joke.
Of course, everyone had no idea. In fact, Huang Laosi didn’t know about this at all, and what they didn’t even know was that Lao Si was less shameless than Lao Ten.
Chu Qing was not a fool. Some were able to move and some could not. He just divided up the things that could be moved, the "property" of Goguryeo people. He did not touch the things that should not be moved because they would be involved with the court.
The only thing that was a bit taboo was the mines, but Chu Qing directly guaranteed that all the mined ores would be sold to the court at market prices.
When he said this, everyone was completely relieved.
Only the third brother showed a little intelligence in his eyes.
Once the mine is opened, it must be transported back, and if you want to transport it, you must use a ship, and if you use a ship, you must pay money. After all, in the end, it was Chu Qing or the boat master who made the money.
Thinking more deeply, this group of people also had to take a boat to go to Goguryeo. The mines were mined, but they didn't say they would take the boat for free.
Rich men are no longer interested in girls dancing with spears. In the future, if they make money and gain fame, they will not need many dancing girls.
What does it mean to be a rich man? He has a mine at home.
These people are not rich, they have a family in the mines.
According to Chu Qing's accurate positioning, these fifty or so people can basically sustain the army's supplies for half a year, not to mention that there are not many soldiers. If you save a little, it can last for a year.
The atmosphere was getting more and more lively, and the "city" in Chu Qing's hand was a bit insufficient, and the pie was getting bigger and bigger.
But this group of wealthy people just did this, and Chu Qing wasn't just talking nonsense. As he said, he had a criminal record.
Beiguan Liangrong, this guy brought back so many good things, including cattle and sheep.
When the East China Sea destroyed Ying, this guy did the same thing. He ignored the imperial court and ordered people to transport the silver mines back by ship.
In this way, the imperial court was so happy that they were drinking the soup. At least Chu Qing did not intercept all of it and put it in the East China Sea, and a small part was transported back to the capital.
So in front of Chu Qing, the court of the Dachang Dynasty was quite humble. You know, let alone drinking soup, it was because Chu Qing had a mouthful of meat to eat, and they had a bowl to wash. Now they can drink soup, how can they not be happy?
.
With a "criminal record", Chu Qing's self-assertive behavior is extremely convincing. Now Chu Qing has told the Queen of Goguryeo that the crown will be auctioned live, and these wealthy people dare to bid.
The matter was settled, Chu Qing didn't listen to numbers, banknotes, money, etc. He only wanted "goods", and the amount delivered was completely calculated based on the market price. As for being ripped off when buying, no wonder others, if they could get supplies at a low price
When it comes to materials, you are considered to be powerful, so everyone depends on their abilities.
Everything is measured by market price. Everything is empty now. Chu Qing said that he is waiting in Guocheng. The empty ship is ready. The transported materials, points, and boarding are waiting for the day of Huang Laosi's triumphant return.
When everyone becomes rich overnight.
In the end, Chu Qing caught the attention of this group of people.
Regardless of whether you are a businessman or a wealthy family, in addition to money, you also care about face and reputation.
For many people, collecting money to help Huang Laosi win a big battle is more attractive than making money.
Everyone is not a fool. We know that Huang Laosi and the court are angry. What Chu Qing said is the truth. The court's allocation of food and fodder will definitely be delayed. In addition, the courtiers are worried about this and that. Laosi is unhappy. At this time, everyone jumps out and sells the iron.
With the hearts of children helping the fourth child, will he not be able to achieve great success in the future? If nothing else, Chu Qing will be at least a little embarrassed if he finds trouble in the future.
After working hard for most of the night, Chu Qing finally made a book appointment with everyone. There was a rough number, but I believe this group of people will definitely do more.
When it was almost dawn, Chu Qing couldn't stand it any longer, and the wealthy people were still very enthusiastic.
Fu San took over and began to continue negotiations with the merchants.
There are many friends, but if you want to ask who will always support Chu Qing unconditionally, it must be the third brother, and only the third brother can do this.
After Chu Qing mentioned this, no one agreed. He shook his head like a golden retriever who had just taken a shower without asking for specific details.
Only the third brother listened carefully to Chu Qing's plan and said that it could be done.
The exhausted Chu Qing had become accustomed to living on the boat, so he got on the boat with Tao Ruolin who covered her mouth and yawned, and returned to the Donghai.
The lights in Zhizhou Mansion are brightly lit.
When the friends gathered together, Wang Tianyu was not very happy: "I'm tempted. It would be great if I had money."
Everyone couldn't laugh or cry.
In fact, this is indeed the case. Although Chu Qing is suspected of painting a cake, it is just a slight exaggeration. According to what he said, the fourth child will definitely agree. For the fourth child, fighting is the most important thing, and winning the war
It's fine. People help you raise money to fight the war, and then let them take advantage of you afterwards. Isn't that right?
Compared with those rich men, the friends have a more detailed understanding of Huang Laosi's plan and the determination of the Queen of Silla. This battle will definitely be won, depending on how far it is won. Goguryeo will be completely broken into pieces and become the territory of Dachang.
, still occupy half of the country there.
Wang Tianyu raised his head and looked at Tao Qi, who was holding Xiao Yi's arm: "Why don't your Tao family invest some money? Don't you take advantage of it?"
Tao Weiran: "The Tao family's wealth has been wiped out by adults a long time ago."
Tao Qi slapped Tao Weiran on the back of the head: "Don't talk nonsense. In Master Chu's words, it means that all the money in my Tao family is dead and needs to be turned into benign assets. These assets will be passed down for hundreds of years."
of."
Everyone laughed and joked, chatted for a while, and then each found a place to sleep.
At the same time, on the other side of the sea, on the land of Goguryeo, Huang Laosi's undefeated army was being driven back like dogs.
