As Zhang Tie took out the pre-prepared plan, the room on the third floor of Changfeng Pavilion became quiet. No one talked any more, and no one cared about the wine and dishes that were not as flavorful as Bihai Yinsha.
The people headed by Li Dong gathered together to form three circles. Each circle had a plan and watched it silently.
"It's really good, that Xiaobao really has some skill." After reading the approximate catalogs, Li Dong raised his head and said in Silla to the person who was also watching the probe.
Several people nodded one after another, and they couldn't think of the way in the plan.
Having said that, Li Dong turned a page gently, and several people continued to look seriously.
Part of the plan is how to mobilize materials for road construction, where to find people to help transport them, and part of the plan is how strong the road is built, whether it can withstand the flood of water and the trampling of horseshoes.
Li Dong and others are not interested in this information. It is not so easy to get one million coins, and even more than two dozen companies cannot get one million coins. More people must be found. There must be a reason to let others. Shot.
What everyone wants to know more is how much benefit can be brought to their own side if the road is repaired.
Turning another page, the information they needed finally appeared.
First, the road will be built at the junction of the two places, which is the border between Silla and Datang. It will not take long to see the results. Inns, restaurants, and other houses will be built on the roadside. , Used to rest for people who have just arrived here from Datang or returned here from Silla.
At this point, it is estimated that the monthly rent and profit will be 1,000. In the future, as the trade and transportation become more frequent, the income can be doubled. This part of the money, Zhengzheng construction only needs 20% of the profit, and it will also be repaired in Jilizhou. , Shilla investors can also get 20% profit.
Seeing the first point, Li Dong showed a smile on his face. He could make 80% and 20% of the profit. It is the same as the money falling from the sky. It is really calculated according to the proportion of the money invested. The total amount for himself and others is not 10%, depending on the situation. Zhang Xiaobao must first give some benefits, and then seek back from other aspects.
Considering that, everyone continued to look down.
The second point is that the road repairs can barely pass through the road that is not a road, and the road should be occupied so that people or teams who can still walk this way must not walk on the newly built road. Have to travel by yourself.
If you want to go, you must pay a part of the toll for the maintenance of the road. You can pass by one person and have no money in your hands. You can stay on both sides and wait for other caravans to come to help guard and transport instead of tolls. Both sides will pay from the caravan. Get a certain percentage of intermediary fees.
If the caravan passes through, the charge is based on the value of the goods. Considering that the value of the goods can be increased several times from one place to another, it is necessary to charge 10% of the value of the money, or half of the goods.
"Okay, the second point is good. If you don’t follow the road we built, go elsewhere, one is dangerous, and the other is time-consuming. Ten percent is also a lot of money. It is best to collect half of the goods, and then the goods are shipped. It’s all things that the two places don’t have, and the value will be higher.”
Seeing the second article, Li Dong stopped again to say something to the people around him, and several of them nodded again.
Third, Datang will set up a toll gate in the places adjacent to both sides. All goods from Silla must pay 20% of the tariff to protect the profits of the goods in Datang's corresponding industries. Datang will send personnel to inspect and eliminate them. Smuggling.
"Why? What tariffs do you have to pay for sales and transportation? The first time I heard that, it is strange that Zhengzheng construction can represent the order of the Tang Dynasty?"
Li Dong was dissatisfied when he saw the third article. He also wanted to transport more things from Silla to Datang for sale in the future. As the population of Jilizhou is large, there are more goods in demand, and the price can be higher. If you pay this Don’t the inexplicable tariffs simply give others money
So he questioned Zhang Tie who was sitting on the mat dissatisfied.
Zhang Tie was drinking the scented tea he had brought. Recently, I was on a boat ride. Thanks to the master’s careful consideration, he served the scented tea with a faint fragrance of flowers. In the aftertaste, he was interrupted by Li Dong, licking his lips, and said :
"Every courtier of the Tang Dynasty knows that my little princes and little ladies can take the place of Datang in dealing with foreign affairs. Your Majesty has also agreed to charge tariffs when you say tariffs. Moreover, this is not the first time Datang has collected foreign affairs. tariff.
The Jiannan Road side has already begun to collect tariffs. Even if the caravan of my main house comes from outside, it will take the initiative to hand in the corresponding money. The same is true for Xinyuan Island. It is estimated that in a few days, the Japanese ships will also start. The payment of tariffs cannot be violated.
Silla can also charge tariffs. Otherwise, Li Dongjia can think about it. Li Dongjia wants to buy porcelain from Datang and transport it back to Xinluo for sale. The team used the relationship to buy porcelain bowls at a lower price and shipped them to Silla for twenty dollars. Does Li Dong's price cut
If it drops, Datang Caravan only needs to keep its profits at the same level as Li Dong's, and the price will be lower than Li Dong's. Does Li Dong's still have money to make? After the tariffs are imposed, it is natural to increase the price to make a profit. This is a kind of protection for Li Dongjia. "
Li Dong nodded, his face changed, indeed, as Zhang Tie said, waiting for Datang's caravan to start shipping a large amount of goods, the impact on him was not small.
At this time, Zhang Tie said: "In addition to this kind of shock after purchasing products from Datang, there is another kind. The trees in Silla are always inferior to those of Datang, especially the output of cloth, such as a weaving cloth. I can earn 300 dollars a year to make ends meet. My Datang has more advanced weaving machines. The cloth is cheap and sold to Silla at a lower price. Shall weavers in Silla want to starve to death?"
This time more people nodded. They admitted that Datang's technology was more advanced than that of Shilla and understood this truth.
If the silk is cheap, the weaver cannot weave. If the grain is cheap, the farmer will not farm. The goods are cheap. The craftsman will not work. If there is no output, there will be no money. If there is no money, then the goods cannot be bought. .
"This is called an economic crisis. Supply exceeds demand in an abnormal situation. Silla will be over by then. My little son does not intend to harm Silla in this way. There is still a good way to survive, my little son, benevolent, benevolent and righteous."
Zhang Tie also showed off his knowledge with Li Dong and others, regardless of right or wrong, anyway, Li Dong's people didn't know.
Li Dong still agrees with Zhang Tie's words in front of him, the only thing he disagrees with is his praise of the young man's benevolence in the back, so he doesn't believe that Zhang Xiaobao can be kind.
"This... I need to go back and discuss it." Li Dong couldn't make up his mind. The matter was too big, and he needed to talk to the person from the clan where Shilla visited him last time. See what they plan to do. It looks like Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan. I have stabilized things in Jiliju and are ready to hold business with Silla. This is a hassle.
"It's okay. We can understand that Li Dongjia has difficulties. We can understand it. This matter is not anxious. After Li Dongjia discusses it, we will talk about it. After all, one million yuan is still too much for Silla, and Silla's annual income may not be sufficient. To reach this number, let alone the business headed by Li Dongjia."
Zhang Tie replied with a smile, but what he said was very uncomfortable. Even if he didn't show it on his face, his words still showed a slightly elevated posture.
Li Dong and the others took the uncomfortableness in their hearts and did not say anything to refute it. Whoever makes the mouth open is ten million.
…
The sun is warm and warm.
Li Longji was lying on the artificially made salt-saturated lake, looking at the clouds floating in the sky, looking very comfortable. From time to time, he took a sip of wine floating on the table next to him. This life is really enjoyable.
I just drank a cup and felt a little stunned. He glanced at the entrance, waiting for Gao Lishi who was going to pick up the family letter to return. Not far away, there was a thumping sound. It was a court lady performing a water dance.
Close by, Concubine Wu Hui accompanied her, wearing a translucent swimsuit, full of temptation.
"Your Majesty, don't let other people come to this lake in the future. After others swim, the water is dirty." Concubine Wu Hui held a peach in her hand, just washed it and peeled it from the clean water next to it, and handed it to Li Longji. Said softly.
Li Longji took a bite of a peach, squinted his eyes with satisfaction, and said to Concubine Wu Hui: "The lake is big, how could someone get dirty? Those who come to swim are checked by a doctor at the entrance outside. People who are sick are not allowed to go. If no one else is allowed to come, who will pay for the salt and water
The lake is more than three hundred feet long, which is one thousand meters, two hundred meters wide, and ten meters deep. According to Xiaobao’s calculations, this is two million cubic meters. If the salt is saturated, it would need more than six hundred thousand tons. From the beginning of the construction of this lake to the present, the salt of the lake has been constantly growing, spending so much money, and injecting new water and salt after a period of time.
If others don't pay, can I let me pay? Then I was really a faint king, let Xiaobao and Juanjuan know that they should stop the public welfare money that they used for disaster relief and construction every year from the family, and my loss would be even greater. "
"Your Majesty, my concubines have never thought about it so much. It turns out that Wang Zhang's family is so powerful? If they are really missing their two families, wouldn't my Datang be in danger? Your Majesty will have to make more concessions to them." Concubine Wu Hui has heard of it. With Li Longji's words, his eyes rolled and he said as if in agreement.
"Hey..." Li Longji looked at Concubine Wu Hui with a sigh, and then said: "Don't always think about dealing with their family, even if you are right, Datang can't lack them, so what? This sky is not what I said. It might be possible to deal with Zhang Wang's family. I tried hard to retreat the Tang Dynasty's economy for decades to drive them away. Yes, I can only drive away.
What's the time? I am not researching new weapons? Wait until someone from another remote continent comes and shoots guns from the sea in Luzhou towards the capital? "
