In July, the weather was a bit dry and unremarkable. Relying on the Chaoyang Mén store, the sturdy wine flag was sticking to the flagpole, and under the eaves, it was a bench to take a nap
The shop guy, the inn business has been not very good in the past few months. Uploaded by netizens ==Originally, the customers here were the most customers, but now, the customers are not coming, not their accommodation price.
It is expensive, on the contrary, their prices have fallen to the lowest point, but their business is still half dead, and they can only earn some money by selling some wine.[]
The business is in a downturn, and there are not fewer merchants coming and going to the capital. After May, the number of merchants in the capital has increased a lot this year, more than doubled compared with previous years. However, recently, this Jubao Building has added another Mén business.
--stay.
When the merchants arrived in the capital, they always had to find a place to stay and find a place to stay. It turned out that everyone would find an inn to live at will, but now it is different. They are all going to a newly built place called Jubao's 'hotel' inn'.
In order to save space, the entire Jubao Hotel has built seven floors, with a brick and stone structure, and the rooms are not large. This large building covers an area of tens of acres, with 500 rooms. It is said that staying in it costs 500 acres a lot of money to spend a night in it.
After a month, he would have to sell fifteen taels of silver at will, but the merchants who were willing to stay here were flocking to it and their enthusiasm remained unabated.
Even if you can't find an empty room in a hotel, you usually rest in the inn near Yingchunfang. As businessmen, you have to socialize at any time. Some people come to Mén to discuss business. Now all the merchants in the capital are gathering in Yingchun.
Chunfang, if the place where you stay is far away, it will not only be underestimated, but also adds a lot of inconvenience.
Although businessmen are stingy, if they can do business to a certain extent, they must not lose a single piece of money, and they think that a single piece of money should not be too much. Doing business is about
It is convenient. You can go to Jubaolou to have tea, discuss business with others, and sign contracts with others. Of course, you can live wherever you are close.
Chaoyang Mén has gradually become depressed, causing many shopkeepers to curse, but many people have begun to look at Yingchunfang, but it is too late. The Yingchunfang is not large in size, but now there are countless business travelers, with inch of land
Gold, a palm-sized land, can only buy hundreds of taels of silver. It is said that if you want to rent a face to do business, you will need three hundred taels of silver a month. In the past, when the most lively time in Chaoyang was, it was not
Just seventy taels of silver.
Everyone saw the decline of the Chaoyang Mén and the rise of Yingchunfang. There were hundreds of thousands of merchants entering and leaving Yingchunfang every year. Merchants from all over the country kept looking for buyers and sellers.
, There are even many merchants who don’t even leave their goods, but stay in Jubao Building all day long, staring at the prices that change at any time and start trading.
This business is very new and actually very simple. For example, the price of raw silk. With the annual harvest, supply and demand and various natural disasters occurring in various places will change at any time. It is not certain that today is a trickle of raw silk, which is a silver pattern with three or four silver pieces.
After a few days, the money suddenly became popular and suddenly rose to three or six cents. Although the business only had two cents, if it was a large amount of acquisition, the profit here would be quite large. I might as well make a few days to change.
You can earn thousands of taels of silver with your hands.
Therefore, many merchants saw this business opportunity and watched the changes in prices in Jubao Building every day, and immediately bought them on a large scale. When the price rose, they cleared their stock without hesitation.
There are many merchants, which have promoted a certain market prosperity.
Think about it, some goods have plummeted because of the price of the goods plummeted, and merchants have transported the goods, but no one cares about them. The goods cannot be taken away, so they are naturally anxious to jump. After all, for merchants who are taking goods, circulation is the most important thing.
The faster the goods circulate in your own hands, even if the profit is small, at least there will be profits. But once they are rotten in your hands, you will inevitably feel a little overwhelmed.
However, now, as long as the goods arrive, someone will receive the goods. The receiving merchants will no longer simply take them for processing or distribute goods to various shops, but will temporarily stock up and sell them when the market is good.
Merchants who transport goods have no time to delay, but merchants who transfer goods have time. Everyone complements each other, which speeds up the circulation of goods. As long as the goods enter the capital, they can be sold immediately. What merchants need to do
It’s no longer bargaining, but rather the continuous transport of goods.
In this way, the business of Yingchunfang was greatly stimulated. The members of Jubaolou have increased to 300,000, and this number is still growing wildly, because although the interests of business have not increased much, the risks have dropped.
At the lowest point, this made many landlords and gentry start to become jealous. In the past, the gentry had a high status and the merchants had a low status, so the gentry inevitably had a sense of superiority. However, the status of merchants has gradually stabilized, especially the Jubaolou
Merchants with membership also began to be protected by the government. If the government takes people at will, there will naturally be a commercial bank or Jubao Building to go to the government, and this status will naturally rise.
In the past, although merchants earned more than gentry, the risks were also huge. This is called seeing thieves eating
ou, I have never seen a thief be beaten, and it is difficult for ordinary people to understand the bitterness of selling goods. However, the gentry is different. Although the gentry earns little money, the risk is also low. But now it is different. The risks of selling goods are already
When it reaches a very small point, unless the luck is bad, as long as you are willing to produce and transport, you will have profits.
This result led to many gentry trying to let their children do business, and the number of merchants suddenly increased a lot. When a large number of merchants appeared, there would naturally be a large number of helpers and craftsmen. After all, the goods had to be made by man.
, the raw silk workshops, silk workshops, porcelain, ironware, and skins in Jiangnan, and the number of tea leaves has also begun to increase. The rise of workshops has also driven the prosperity of some textile machinery industries, and even in Jiangnan, it has appeared.
Specializing in the manufacture of various woodwork workshops such as looms, iron furnaces, wire drawing machines, etc. As a result, a large number of craftsmen and apprentices became in short supply, and the wages rose every day, and a large number of tenants no longer renewed their land.
When going to the city to find opportunities, the gentry in the country had to increase the wages of tenants. The interests of the gentry and landlords were greatly damaged. The enlightened, so they sold the land and also invested in the business of the business, but were not enlightened.
Of course, I can't help but curse a few words.
The increase in wages has accelerated the circulation of goods to a certain extent. When people have spare money in their hands, of course, they are inevitably forced to buy some things. Things that were unaffordable in the past can also be used at this time.
The core of all this revolves around Yingchunfang, and this large piece of land has become the core of this change.
Liu Chengfeng had already reached the shore here a few days ago and returned to the capital. This young marquis who was in power in Guangxi seemed a little dirty, as if the entire capital had forgotten his existence, and there was no movement in the palace. The court
There was no movement, and even the Beizhen Prefecture Office seemed to be deemed to be without such a person. Only Lao Huo and Wang Sili came to welcome him.
After boarding the boat, Liu Chengfeng couldn't help but stayed up again. It took him four months to go to Guangxi. After more than four months, the changes in Yingchunfang made Liu Chengfeng a little.
I couldn't accept it, but he was very excited, but ignored the neglect he had received. After landing, he walked around Yingchunfang. Here, Liu Chengfeng could deeply feel everyone's spirit, the kind of pedestrian walking in a hurry
There were crowds of people on the streets, and everyone's faces were filled with a hurricane, which was very scent.
Relying on the Heti are brick and stone houses, all of which are as high as six or seven floors, square and without any decoration. Liu Chengfeng knew that such houses would become popular sooner or later, and the land price of Yingchunfang is really
It's too expensive. No matter who has a piece of land in his hand, he will not be able to bear to leave behind any small bridge and flowing water here. The face of a huge eaves is only square, try to make use of the land and use bricks and stones to make this
The higher the house is piled up, the better the value of the land can be used.
Liu Chengfeng took his people to Jubao Building for a walk, and then went to Baihu House for a while before he was satisfied. He returned to Wen Mansion. Now the mansion of the Marquis of Lianzhou in the capital has been built, but it has not been moved yet.
In the past, I was afraid that it would take some time to live. With the mansion in it, Liu Chengfeng was no longer anxious. When he returned to the Wen family, he met Wen Zheng, so he naturally went to see his wife.
A small separation is better than a newlywed. After a few months, Liu Chengfeng and Wen Chenxi's relationship has increased a lot. Anyway, the court and the palace do not like him. He has not received any actual position now, but is just a short-selling thousand households.
So Liu Chengfeng Suoying calmed down and was tired of being at home all day long.
At the same time, Mr. Zhao had been sent to the Beizhen Prefecture Office for interrogation and his confession had been obtained. The crime of King Jingjiang was confirmed. Although the palace had not yet been resolved, the ending was probably predictable.
No one has visited and no one cares about these days. First, Liu Chengfeng was a little depressed. No matter what, he was also a Marquis of Lianzhou and a thousand households of the Jinyiwei. He was more or less a well-known figure, but this time, he was also a Marquis of the Marquis of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.
It feels like I’m forgotten when I come back, it’s really uncomfortable.
However, the days are quite leisurely. It is July. Although the weather is dry and hot, it is a happy time to stay at home to rest.
