Luodu had a rumor about calculating the calculating, but everyone felt that the emperor had just taken power and was the time to give full play to his grace. If he didn't act like this, the rumors in the city almost disappeared. Everyone thought it was a rumor, and countless people were tempted to hear it.
As a result, there are even more strict orders for complaints: anyone who dares to conceal property can give it a presentation. Once verified, half of the property will be sued, and half of the property will be confiscated into the official position.
Such a harsh edict is equivalent to openly plundering merchants' property in the name of the court, but because it was targeted by merchants, the order was promulgated without causing any controversy in the Shangshutai controlled by the Marquis of Xiangyi.
According to the edict, all merchants must report their property. After verification by the government, a calculation of one calculation (one hundred and twenty documents) will be collected for every two scattered pieces; the craftsmen will reduce the calculation of half, and every four scattered pieces will be calculated; the light chariots used for their own use will be calculated by one, one, two, and one calculation for the large chariots that traffic in goods will be calculated by one, and one calculation for more than five zhangs.
Various transactions, especially the circulation of money related to lending, are strictly imposed according to the limits of the calculation order, and the high transaction tax is strictly imposed. At the same time, it is stipulated that local merchants and their families are not allowed to occupy land and are not allowed to keep slaves.
Although he was prepared for it, Cheng Zheng couldn't help but sigh that the merchants in Han Dynasty were in great trouble this time!
Most transactions in the Han Dynasty are in the city stipulated by the government, so the household registration of merchants is also established as a municipal registration. Although there is no limit on merchants, it also includes craftsmen and other people who make a living by trading, the most important items are: calculation, ban on land, and ban on slaves, which are all aimed at merchants with municipal registration.
Zhao Moxuan said: Based on the collection of vehicles and ships, the chariots and ships in Han Dynasty will suffer a big loss this time
High IQ said in confusion: Even if you calculate twice a car, it will only cost 240 cents. Isn’t that too much?
If it is normal, it is naturally not too much, but what if the goods are half reduced? Zhao Moxuan said: Once the calculating order is issued, in the long run, the goods transactions will definitely be greatly reduced. Then, the collection of taxes based on vehicles and ships is a step further. Many families who rely on vehicles and ships to make a living are probably going to lose their homes.
The important thing is the land. Yuncangfeng said: It is prohibited for merchants from occupying land in the city. If the land they have in their hands is not sold as soon as possible, they will be confiscated directly by the court in the future.
Master Yun San was right. Tao Hongmin smiled and said: I have met no less than five wealthy businessmen with names along the way. I want to pledge the land to our money house.
Cheng Zongyang said: Did Brother Tao agree?
Why should I agree? I took the land and would be conquered if I didn't know what to do.
Cheng Zongyang turned his head and said: How did foreign merchants stipulate?
Qin Hui said: There is no such thing as yet, but since there is no explicit regulation, I think that except for reporting the item of property collection and calculation, everything else is indispensable.
With the emperor's temperament, they will naturally not be cheaper. Since they didn't say it, they would treat everyone equally. In this way, the shops of Qingzhou merchants were forced to close, but they happened to escape the disaster. Of course, the one with the best luck must be considered himself. As soon as they took all the goods guaranteed by Tao Hongmin, the situation took a sharp turn.
Ban Chao read the copy of the edict and said: Let's calculate the order, all merchants are eager to ship the goods. In a short period of time, whether by water or by land, the freight will definitely increase significantly.
High IQ said: That's right, the loss outside the dike is compensated inside the dike. If I drive, I might as well convert all the calculations into the freight price. Hehe, the prices in Luodu will soar.
Most of the people here are veterans in the business world. When they heard this statement with high IQ, they shook their heads slightly and said: Although freight rates will rise, prices may not necessarily
Why?
Ban Chao explained: First of all, the levy is money, not physical goods. Only when merchants sell goods can they get enough money to pay the levy, which will lead to high money and low goods. Secondly, the government will approve the property, so the price is the basis. The higher the price, the more levy you pay, and the more levy you pay. The government is planning to stabilize the price.
Once the order was released, complaints would surely arise in the city, but if prices were suppressed or even fell across the board, the people's resentment would be much smaller. After all, only a small number of merchants with city registration could not cause any major chaos. In the end, the people gained benefits. Officials were taxed. The only one who was unlucky was a group of hoarding merchants, which was very happy.
In any case, the most severely damaged local merchants must be the city-owned locals. Cheng Zongyang said: While counting the sacred goods, the sacred goods are prohibited from occupying the land to prevent them from transferring funds. In addition, the sacred goods and sacred goods are equivalent to binding their hands and feet and looting their property.
Ban Chao said: Compared to the time when the calculating order is implemented, the dust has settled. Now people are in panic. This is the time when they are weakest. Do not miss the opportunity.
I invite everyone to talk about the next plan. Cheng Zongyang said: Prices plummeted, as we expected, let’s talk about our current situation first, Brother Cheng
Cheng Zheng said: Let’s talk about the business of the company, which is a total of 100,000 gold baht. When we first used Yun Sanye’s east wind to sell it, we made a profit of more than 6,000 yuan. Then we mainly raised the price and raised the price through repurchase. After that, we had a slight loss a few days ago, the merchants in Luodu forced all the goods to sell them. The price was much lower than the market price. Total, the goods of 100,000 gold baht made a total of 12,000 gold baht.
Cheng Zheng smiled and said: As of today, prices in Luodu have generally risen by 60%.
From the perspective of recovering funds, prices have risen by 60%, and goods worth 100,000 gold baht of goods worth 100,000 gold baht in total. It cannot be said that it is a loss of money business, but I am absolutely sorry for the hard work. But everyone knows that the key to raising prices is not the amount of money earned by Cheng Zhengneng raised prices by 60%, and then cleared the goods before calculating the order. It is already amazing.
Pa, pa! Cheng Zongyang raised his hand and slapped a few times, and said with a smile: Very good! Mr. Ban
Ban Chao stood up and said: The price of Luodu rose by 60%, which is equivalent to an increase of 60% according to the calculation of two titaniums. Two thousand documents are 120 documents, and the increase of 60% is roughly 2,000 documents is 2,000 documents and 200 documents are levied. This item alone is levied 10% of the merchant's property.
These days we checked the city registration. There were 16,000 registered merchants, totaling 5,000 households. However, when we visited the nine cities of Luodu, we found that since Emperor Wu once recruited merchants as border soldiers, Luodu merchants were usually registered by one or two people, and the others were delisted for the people. This 6,000 people involved roughly 12,000 households, covering Luodu and surrounding villages and towns, and Luodu, with more than 250,000 households. In addition, more than 400,000 households were only a few of them in business registration compared to good families.
According to our investigation, among the merchants, the top-level families with a wealth of 100 gold, and the middle-level families with a wealth of less than 100 gold, accounting for 30% of the lower-level families with a wealth of less than 100 gold, accounting for 60% of the lower-level families with a wealth of more than 100 million gold, and about 200 households. The eight families of the Dajia Tian family, Bian family, Lu family, Ji family, and Xu family all claim to have a wealth of one million yuan. The amount of money collected in Luodu alone exceeds one million gold baht. The entire Han country should be more than 10 million yuan, which is nearly twice the annual income of the Han country.
Everyone here was a little surprised. There were so many?
I didn't expect it. After calculating, I realized that it was not lower than this number. Moreover, I calculated it at the lowest level. Actually, I calculated it above this number. Ban Chao said: The key is that if I pay nearly 1.2 million gold baht of money at one time, Luo may be in a shortage of money.
Cheng Zongyang smiled and said: Although the goods we sell are not profitable, the money we have is now more valuable. If it weren't for 60% of the price, the amount paid by Luodu merchants is probably...
Ban Chao said: 700,000
The extra 400,000 or 500,000 is the last straw that crushed Luodu merchants, and my disciple collected the copper zhu a few days ago, and it has achieved great results. The shortage of copper zhu on the market has begun to show signs. With the calculation order, the money shortage will definitely exceed the savage. Cheng Zongyang said: But if we hold the money zhu in our hands, we can't produce a penny. We must let it flow to obtain rebirth.
Cheng Zongyang said: What we need to consider now is, in view of the current situation in the Han Dynasty, in which direction can we invest in to obtain the maximum profit?
Medicinal materials Tao Hongmin first said: Especially expensive medicinal materials, they have always been promoted higher and higher. If you can take advantage of the opportunity of merchants in Han Dynasty to clear goods at a discount, you will be twice the profit.
Cheng Zhengdao: The two goods, fur and fabric, will rise sharply every year at the end of the year. If the goods are shipped, we can eat a batch.
Jewelry Ah, Master! High IQ said: Everyone loves beads! Especially women, whether they are just beginning to fall in love or half-old Xu Mu, taking a few good beads will definitely make them blind!
Did you use pearls as diamonds?
Shut up!
High IQ shut up immediately
Zhao Moxuan said: There are more than ten thousand kinds of goods in the world? But there are only two most stable ones: gold, and land gold is not allowed for now. If you can purchase a batch of land from merchants in Han Dynasty at a low price with the opportunity of banning the field, the income will definitely be quite high.
Yun Cangfeng smiled and said: It's just what I want
Cheng Zhengdao: Unfortunately, the imperial edict only prohibits land, and the shops and buildings of those merchants are worth a lot of money
Cheng Zongyang smiled and said: You can't eat it in one bite and eat it slowly. It's good to have fur fabrics, expensive medicinal materials, fields, and yes, let's discuss what price to use and how many to buy it separately?
Tao Hongmin said: The reason why expensive medicinal materials are expensive is that they are effective and rare. We want to buy more, but I guess it is enough. It’s almost done if we have a hundred thousand gold baht.
Cheng Zhengdao: There should not be too many fur goods, fabrics, jewelry, etc., and it should be limited to 50,000 gold baht.
Profits from land are too slow, but if you want to invest, I don’t object. Tao Hongmin said: In my opinion, it is certain that the land price is cut in half. I think the 30% discount is acceptable for our sale price.
Zhao Moxuan said: In the past, the price of land in Luodu was about ten gold baht per mu. The 30% discount was three to four gold baht per mu. The 100,000 gold baht was about three hundred thousand mu and three hundred hectares... It seems that there are not many
Cheng Zongyang bowed to Wang Hui and said with a smile: Please invite your wife, sister-in-law.
Wang Hui took out a page of paper, we calculated it, taking Luodu as an example, except for the Chize Mountains, the surrounding fertile fields are roughly 30,000 hectares of land under the name of Luodu merchants. The number of 2,600 hectares is copied from the Grand Secretary's Agricultural Bureau. According to our private investigation, it belongs to the merchants, but not registered. It is roughly equivalent to this number, with a total of about 5,000 hectares. The total family of tenants employed is no less than 50,000.
Cheng Zheng took a deep breath, no wonder there were so many fields!
The number of merchant households in Luodu is only one-thirty of the total households, but the land they occupy is nearly one-sixth. They hire tens of thousands of tenants to collect land rents. The rebukes against merchants in the memorial of the original order were not unreasonable.
Wang Hui continued: From the perspective of income, the land around Luodu produces three stones per mu, and the land rent is usually 40%, which is 144 kilograms of land in Han Dynasty, and 30 taxes. Then, excluding the labor cost of management, transportation and rent collection, the net collection of about one stone per mu can be about one stone per mu, Luodu grain price has now risen to 1,500 RMB per stone. This is not enough. According to the usual annual situation, the land rent of one mu can be earned by 600 RMB per stone.
The price of Luodu land per mu is approximately around ten gold coins, and six hundred copper coins is equivalent to three percent of the annual income.
Everyone was thinking that three percent annual income was not high, but very stable. Especially in some places where land rents were 50% or more, the grain prices fluctuated from time to time. If the current grain price was calculated, the annual income exceeded 7% and 50% of land rent was collected, the annual income was even close to 10%. This figure has exceeded the profit of ordinary business.
Wang Hui then started to talk about the main topic. Based on this, the price of land is six gold baht per mu, and the annual income is 5% worth buying; five gold baht per mu, and the annual income is 6%. If it drops to 30% and three gold baht per mu, the annual income is 10%. Once it drops to this price, I suggest investing all funds to purchase.
Everyone didn't make any noise for a long time
Finally, Tao Hongmin sighed: I just said it casually, but I didn't expect that I was really at a loss for any risk. I took 10% of the annual interest rate... Tsk tsk, it seems that this price will never be reduced.
High IQ can't help but say: 10% of the interest, this is not high
Qin Hui smiled and said: Compared with lending, of course, it is not high, but the risk is almost non-existent, which is not comparable to lending.
Wang Hui said: According to our statistics, the price of land will basically be stable at 30 to 1, which means the annual income of land rent is 3% of the annual income. Therefore, we can calculate the real price from the production of the land. After purchasing at a low price, we can earn twice or even three times the profit, without worrying about buying it at a high price or selling it at a low price.
High IQ grinned: It's really troublesome...
Regarding the expectation of the price of land, I have some calculations. Wang Hui said: The 30% discount that Tao Wuye said may not be possible.
Tao Hongmin was excited, please give me some advice!
The 5,000 hectares of land occupied by merchants are worth 5 million gold baht in a mu. Except for the money baht in the hands of merchants, all gold baht in Luodu may not be such a number. In addition, some gold baht will be invested in various goods sold at a low price, and even the purchase of slaves can be used for purchases of fields, which will not exceed two million gold baht. Therefore, I believe that the average price of land sold by merchants this time is that when the price is about four gold baht, the higher the price of land sold in the early stage, the more severe the decline will be in the later stage. If half of the land can be sold for six gold baht, the remaining half can only be sold for two gold baht.
Tao Hongmin said in disbelief: Two gold tills per acre?
Wang Hui said: Jinzhu is not a paper money, it is not a fall from the sky out of thin air. Since half of the fields have been used, the remaining half is only worth 500,000, but this number is just an estimate. If you want to accurately calculate the price of the fields and even the fluctuations of all goods, you still need the help of Tao Wuye.
What do you say about "Master Tao Wu"? Just call me Xiao Tao. Tao Hongmin said affectionately: If you need your brother to take action, sister-in-law just tells me!
I need the total amount of deposits in the Dow Money House and various money houses, as well as whether they are owned by merchants, so as to calculate the price fluctuations from the circulation of Luodu money baht
Tao Hongmin said: It’s wrapped around me!
The faster the better
No problem! Tao Hongmin stood up and I'll go now! I won't listen to the rest. Brother Zhao, Brother Cheng, you can do it!
Tao Hongmin was so decisive that Cheng Zongyang had to send him out and said: Are you so relieved about a business worth hundreds of thousands of gold coins?
Nonsense! What are you worried about with these people under your command? Tell you, I don’t dare to make any decisions on my sister-in-law, that brother, you offer a price! Is 100,000 gold baht enough?
You go quickly
Discuss Ah!
No need to discuss!
Then I'll poach people
Cheng Zongyang sneered and dig it casually!
I don’t believe it anymore. I can’t find a talent if I have so much money!
This is why you can't recruit talents. Cheng Zongyang said: Do you know what a national sage is? They are not just for money. You are a philanthropist.
Tao Hongmin felt like she was enlightened, so that's it! This talent is just like a beauty. Just talking about money is a vulgar Brother Cheng. You are so time to give advice!
when?
Those merchants want to disband their slaves, so I will search for a few people!
Don't forget the serious business!
Can't forget it!
Tao Hongmin's car drove out of the business in a hurry and rushed to the money house. Then Yun Cangfeng, who was joined by Luodu merchants to take advantage of the situation. At this moment, it was finally time to be proud. He spent several times the 80,000 gold baht to buy a title and official position. At this time, he became the best amulet and decided to contact Cheng Zongyang at any time. Yun Cangfeng left Cheng's house and began to manage the Yun family's layout.
Zhao Moxuan and Cheng Zheng also said goodbye that all the goods in Cheng Zheng were empty. Now he has a lot of money and has begun to wait and see the market changes. Once valuable items that are lower than expected appear, he is ready to buy them at any time. For this reason, he left one more step and found Cheng Zongyang and wanted to ask Ban Chao to help.
Cheng Zongyang agreed immediately, instead of letting Ban Chao sit in the study, it would be better to let him personally manage the Jinzhu siege to capture the city and land. Compared with Qin Hui's scheming, Ban Chao is more suitable to be a fierce general in the shopping mall.
Before leaving, Zhao Moxuan only said one sentence, be careful to tell the truth
Cheng Zongyang said: Don't worry, we think about going together, I have arrangements
Back in the hall, Cheng Zongyang began to assign tasks, with high IQ. You go to the Grand Marshal Palace and only need to do one thing. Ning Cheng gritted his teeth and only charged money, and could not be compensated by physical objects.
Become Ah
You have to be careful, those merchants are eager to jump over the wall, and they must do everything possible to lobby Ningcheng Grand Minister's Farmers in charge of financial planning. As long as he does not let go, the money in our hands will be of great use.
I understand! Yi Zongzang was idle after the imperial edict was awarded. No matter how many prices the merchants offered by Luodu were, I was one higher than them!
Just do you understand, Wang Meng is here?
Han Yu took a step forward, it was already here, waiting at the drama hero
Keep the door tight for the next few days, there will be movement in the city, so don't make trouble
yes
Cheng Zongyang looked at Jiang Anshi, Lao Jiang, our Pengyi Society's business may be compensated.
Jiang Anshi smiled and said: We don’t plan to make money by car or two, two car, two hundred and forty cents, and ten cars are only two hulls and not rely on this business to make a living. Of course, we can afford it.
Foreign business has temporarily stopped, so I will send Mr. Ha to Wudu first
Jiang Anshi's heels are together, yes!
Brother Fifth, please watch more for me in the house
There is no need to have Han Yu. Lu Jing said: I want to go out and find someone
Um?
We found the military newspaper of Zuowu Second Army. Qin Hui was on the sidelines: It's a bit strange.
Why is it strange?
The military newspaper is said to have been sent back by Zuo Wu's Second Army, but Lu Wu's judgment on the wear and tear of simplicity and Wei's writing, as well as the new and old words of the ink marks, the military newspaper is likely written in Luodu.
Someone fabricated the military newspaper?
The strange thing is that the paint prints on the military newspaper are original, not forged, we speculate that it is likely that the Second Army of the Zuowu Army sent back a blank military newspaper with a seal. Someone else filled it out in Luodu and it has been revised many times, so that the bamboo slips have been re-compiled.
Go to find the fake person from the forged bamboo slips?
Lu Jing said: There are some clues, I'll try to find out if I can pull him out.
Cheng Zongyang said: The death of Shishuai and the reputation of Xingyue Lake Camp are all major events, you can just let it go
Everyone left one after another, and in the end, only Qin Hui and Wang Hui were left, the couple left in the hall.
Cheng Zongyang smiled and said: My sister-in-law's plan today makes people open their eyes. It's so hard.
Wang Hui smiled, you guys chat, I'll make tea for you
Cheng Zongyang said: What was the arrangement just now?
The lord has made every decision, and this time it will definitely make a great victory, but compared with the lord's hidden backup, those gains can only be considered small profits.
Qin Hui said as he took out a heavy copper box, which was brought by Ruan Xianglin. He had already counted it, and there were 3,100 pieces in total.
This weight... can really kill people and go to meet Wang Meng
Wang Hui came in with a tea tray, and Cheng Zongyang said: Don’t bother sister-in-law, Brother Qin and I went to the backyard to discuss something.
OK, Wang Hui put away the tea tray and asked: Why didn’t you see Miss Li?
Cheng Zongyangqi said: Which lady Li?
Wang Hui smiled and said: Where are there people? Of course it is Nu Hero Ruan
Cheng Zongyang then remembered the head of Li and stammered: What happened to her...what has she gone out? My sister-in-law has something to do with her?
I haven't seen Shishi for a long time, I want to ask her how Shishi is
Cheng Zongyang's heart was slightly moved. He was thinking about this, but when he saw Ruan Xianglin, he subconsciously avoided it. When he was alone with Ruan Xianglin, he either inserted it in front of her or behind her, or it was above. It felt so embarrassing to mention his daughter at this time.
It's okay, when she comes back, I'll let her come to see her sister-in-law's wife
…………………………
There is a tomb above the cellar where Ju Meng is hiding. The tomb is inside and outside. There is no sunshine inside and outside, giving people a feeling of gloomy and weird. However, at this moment, the cry of babies kept coming from the tomb. The sound was loud and high, and it cleaned the gloomy atmosphere inside the tomb, and it was filled with vitality.
Wang Meng was holding a small baby like a bomb, his arms were stiff like a stone, and he held it hard in the air. He tried his best to coax the young master to take away his magical powers, but unfortunately he blew a circle of white foam on his mouth, but he couldn't coax him.
Ju Meng, wearing a silver mask, leaned on the couch, eating the grapes fed by Nao, while laughing in a slight way
No! No! Come and help! Wang Meng screamed: It's too soft!
What's this and that? In terms of seniority, you have to call him uncle
I can call him Master! Hurry up and take one!
Ju Meng said heartbrokenly: You are such a waste! He kicked Nao and went to coax him.
Nao came over to take the baby, and Wang Meng suddenly loosened his whole body, just like a huge rock in his arms was taken away by someone.
Oh, mom... Wang Meng complained: Why do you think my uncle can cry so much?
Are you hungry? Alas, you feed Ah
In front of Wang Meng, Nao could only untidy the clothes in a concealed manner, expose his nipples, and send them to the baby's mouth.
As a result, the child cried even louder after just one mouthful of his mouth
Yan Xiang came over and took the baby, oh, oh, and coaxed a few times, then sniffed, and said in surprise: What a big smell of alcohol, have you fed him to drink?
Cheng Zongyang happened to come in and was shocked when he heard this. You should feed him such a older child? It’s crazy!
No! No! Ju Meng quickly explained: Forgot to wipe it
Cheng Zongyang understands it, Xing Ah, Drama Hero, share a pacifier with your little brother Ah
Yanxiang laughed out loud
Nao blushed and lowered his head to cover his shirt
Cheng Zongyang said to Yanxiang: There are so many people, the air is not good, you can carry your child out first
Yanxiang has blessed her body and carried her child out
Cheng Zongyang glanced at Nao. She was tied to Ju Meng's couch, unable to leave her, so she had to stay here.
Is Guo Daxia good?
Wang Mengdao: Fortunately, the two places where Guo Daxia stayed in the past were found by the government one after another. All the families were ruined, Guo Daxia took several brothers to the mountain.
Do you have many brothers left here?
There are fifteen or sixteen, all of which can share life and death.
I heard that the Han Dynasty's knights are in great honor, helping the poor and helping the poor and saving people from water and fire, and never refusing to die
Guo Daxiao is righteous and righteous. Everyone knows that our brothers are not greedy for anything. They only respect Guo Daxiao's character and are willing to follow him.
If there is a weak child who is robbed by a big man, what would Guo Daxia do?
Of course, I should save the child first, and then ask the man what difficulties he has. Who would rob Ah? If you can help, please help me.
Cheng Zongyang choked for a moment. He had already written a draft, but he didn't expect that Wang Meng would pop up in the second half, making his metaphor impossible to beat.
Cheng Zongyang had no choice but to say bluntly: What if there was a rich man who was robbed by the government? Would you ask the government what difficulties were there?
Officials? Stop making fun of them, they will also ask for difficulties.
Cheng Zongyang choked again and had to praise: Well said!
What do you want to say?
Cheng Zongyang then introduced the topic. Do you know how to calculate the order?
Wang Meng shook his head, never heard of it
...You haven't heard of it?
We Han Rangers, why do we listen to the imperial edicts of the government? Is it the same?
It makes sense, otherwise why would it be a hero? Cheng Zongyang had to pinch his nose and tell Wang Meng about the calculation order.
Wang Meng slapped his thigh, and the government is considered to be doing some personnel!
As a result, there are even more strict orders for complaints: anyone who dares to conceal property can give it a presentation. Once verified, half of the property will be sued, and half of the property will be confiscated into the official position.
Such a harsh edict is equivalent to openly plundering merchants' property in the name of the court, but because it was targeted by merchants, the order was promulgated without causing any controversy in the Shangshutai controlled by the Marquis of Xiangyi.
According to the edict, all merchants must report their property. After verification by the government, a calculation of one calculation (one hundred and twenty documents) will be collected for every two scattered pieces; the craftsmen will reduce the calculation of half, and every four scattered pieces will be calculated; the light chariots used for their own use will be calculated by one, one, two, and one calculation for the large chariots that traffic in goods will be calculated by one, and one calculation for more than five zhangs.
Various transactions, especially the circulation of money related to lending, are strictly imposed according to the limits of the calculation order, and the high transaction tax is strictly imposed. At the same time, it is stipulated that local merchants and their families are not allowed to occupy land and are not allowed to keep slaves.
Although he was prepared for it, Cheng Zheng couldn't help but sigh that the merchants in Han Dynasty were in great trouble this time!
Most transactions in the Han Dynasty are in the city stipulated by the government, so the household registration of merchants is also established as a municipal registration. Although there is no limit on merchants, it also includes craftsmen and other people who make a living by trading, the most important items are: calculation, ban on land, and ban on slaves, which are all aimed at merchants with municipal registration.
Zhao Moxuan said: Based on the collection of vehicles and ships, the chariots and ships in Han Dynasty will suffer a big loss this time
High IQ said in confusion: Even if you calculate twice a car, it will only cost 240 cents. Isn’t that too much?
If it is normal, it is naturally not too much, but what if the goods are half reduced? Zhao Moxuan said: Once the calculating order is issued, in the long run, the goods transactions will definitely be greatly reduced. Then, the collection of taxes based on vehicles and ships is a step further. Many families who rely on vehicles and ships to make a living are probably going to lose their homes.
The important thing is the land. Yuncangfeng said: It is prohibited for merchants from occupying land in the city. If the land they have in their hands is not sold as soon as possible, they will be confiscated directly by the court in the future.
Master Yun San was right. Tao Hongmin smiled and said: I have met no less than five wealthy businessmen with names along the way. I want to pledge the land to our money house.
Cheng Zongyang said: Did Brother Tao agree?
Why should I agree? I took the land and would be conquered if I didn't know what to do.
Cheng Zongyang turned his head and said: How did foreign merchants stipulate?
Qin Hui said: There is no such thing as yet, but since there is no explicit regulation, I think that except for reporting the item of property collection and calculation, everything else is indispensable.
With the emperor's temperament, they will naturally not be cheaper. Since they didn't say it, they would treat everyone equally. In this way, the shops of Qingzhou merchants were forced to close, but they happened to escape the disaster. Of course, the one with the best luck must be considered himself. As soon as they took all the goods guaranteed by Tao Hongmin, the situation took a sharp turn.
Ban Chao read the copy of the edict and said: Let's calculate the order, all merchants are eager to ship the goods. In a short period of time, whether by water or by land, the freight will definitely increase significantly.
High IQ said: That's right, the loss outside the dike is compensated inside the dike. If I drive, I might as well convert all the calculations into the freight price. Hehe, the prices in Luodu will soar.
Most of the people here are veterans in the business world. When they heard this statement with high IQ, they shook their heads slightly and said: Although freight rates will rise, prices may not necessarily
Why?
Ban Chao explained: First of all, the levy is money, not physical goods. Only when merchants sell goods can they get enough money to pay the levy, which will lead to high money and low goods. Secondly, the government will approve the property, so the price is the basis. The higher the price, the more levy you pay, and the more levy you pay. The government is planning to stabilize the price.
Once the order was released, complaints would surely arise in the city, but if prices were suppressed or even fell across the board, the people's resentment would be much smaller. After all, only a small number of merchants with city registration could not cause any major chaos. In the end, the people gained benefits. Officials were taxed. The only one who was unlucky was a group of hoarding merchants, which was very happy.
In any case, the most severely damaged local merchants must be the city-owned locals. Cheng Zongyang said: While counting the sacred goods, the sacred goods are prohibited from occupying the land to prevent them from transferring funds. In addition, the sacred goods and sacred goods are equivalent to binding their hands and feet and looting their property.
Ban Chao said: Compared to the time when the calculating order is implemented, the dust has settled. Now people are in panic. This is the time when they are weakest. Do not miss the opportunity.
I invite everyone to talk about the next plan. Cheng Zongyang said: Prices plummeted, as we expected, let’s talk about our current situation first, Brother Cheng
Cheng Zheng said: Let’s talk about the business of the company, which is a total of 100,000 gold baht. When we first used Yun Sanye’s east wind to sell it, we made a profit of more than 6,000 yuan. Then we mainly raised the price and raised the price through repurchase. After that, we had a slight loss a few days ago, the merchants in Luodu forced all the goods to sell them. The price was much lower than the market price. Total, the goods of 100,000 gold baht made a total of 12,000 gold baht.
Cheng Zheng smiled and said: As of today, prices in Luodu have generally risen by 60%.
From the perspective of recovering funds, prices have risen by 60%, and goods worth 100,000 gold baht of goods worth 100,000 gold baht in total. It cannot be said that it is a loss of money business, but I am absolutely sorry for the hard work. But everyone knows that the key to raising prices is not the amount of money earned by Cheng Zhengneng raised prices by 60%, and then cleared the goods before calculating the order. It is already amazing.
Pa, pa! Cheng Zongyang raised his hand and slapped a few times, and said with a smile: Very good! Mr. Ban
Ban Chao stood up and said: The price of Luodu rose by 60%, which is equivalent to an increase of 60% according to the calculation of two titaniums. Two thousand documents are 120 documents, and the increase of 60% is roughly 2,000 documents is 2,000 documents and 200 documents are levied. This item alone is levied 10% of the merchant's property.
These days we checked the city registration. There were 16,000 registered merchants, totaling 5,000 households. However, when we visited the nine cities of Luodu, we found that since Emperor Wu once recruited merchants as border soldiers, Luodu merchants were usually registered by one or two people, and the others were delisted for the people. This 6,000 people involved roughly 12,000 households, covering Luodu and surrounding villages and towns, and Luodu, with more than 250,000 households. In addition, more than 400,000 households were only a few of them in business registration compared to good families.
According to our investigation, among the merchants, the top-level families with a wealth of 100 gold, and the middle-level families with a wealth of less than 100 gold, accounting for 30% of the lower-level families with a wealth of less than 100 gold, accounting for 60% of the lower-level families with a wealth of more than 100 million gold, and about 200 households. The eight families of the Dajia Tian family, Bian family, Lu family, Ji family, and Xu family all claim to have a wealth of one million yuan. The amount of money collected in Luodu alone exceeds one million gold baht. The entire Han country should be more than 10 million yuan, which is nearly twice the annual income of the Han country.
Everyone here was a little surprised. There were so many?
I didn't expect it. After calculating, I realized that it was not lower than this number. Moreover, I calculated it at the lowest level. Actually, I calculated it above this number. Ban Chao said: The key is that if I pay nearly 1.2 million gold baht of money at one time, Luo may be in a shortage of money.
Cheng Zongyang smiled and said: Although the goods we sell are not profitable, the money we have is now more valuable. If it weren't for 60% of the price, the amount paid by Luodu merchants is probably...
Ban Chao said: 700,000
The extra 400,000 or 500,000 is the last straw that crushed Luodu merchants, and my disciple collected the copper zhu a few days ago, and it has achieved great results. The shortage of copper zhu on the market has begun to show signs. With the calculation order, the money shortage will definitely exceed the savage. Cheng Zongyang said: But if we hold the money zhu in our hands, we can't produce a penny. We must let it flow to obtain rebirth.
Cheng Zongyang said: What we need to consider now is, in view of the current situation in the Han Dynasty, in which direction can we invest in to obtain the maximum profit?
Medicinal materials Tao Hongmin first said: Especially expensive medicinal materials, they have always been promoted higher and higher. If you can take advantage of the opportunity of merchants in Han Dynasty to clear goods at a discount, you will be twice the profit.
Cheng Zhengdao: The two goods, fur and fabric, will rise sharply every year at the end of the year. If the goods are shipped, we can eat a batch.
Jewelry Ah, Master! High IQ said: Everyone loves beads! Especially women, whether they are just beginning to fall in love or half-old Xu Mu, taking a few good beads will definitely make them blind!
Did you use pearls as diamonds?
Shut up!
High IQ shut up immediately
Zhao Moxuan said: There are more than ten thousand kinds of goods in the world? But there are only two most stable ones: gold, and land gold is not allowed for now. If you can purchase a batch of land from merchants in Han Dynasty at a low price with the opportunity of banning the field, the income will definitely be quite high.
Yun Cangfeng smiled and said: It's just what I want
Cheng Zhengdao: Unfortunately, the imperial edict only prohibits land, and the shops and buildings of those merchants are worth a lot of money
Cheng Zongyang smiled and said: You can't eat it in one bite and eat it slowly. It's good to have fur fabrics, expensive medicinal materials, fields, and yes, let's discuss what price to use and how many to buy it separately?
Tao Hongmin said: The reason why expensive medicinal materials are expensive is that they are effective and rare. We want to buy more, but I guess it is enough. It’s almost done if we have a hundred thousand gold baht.
Cheng Zhengdao: There should not be too many fur goods, fabrics, jewelry, etc., and it should be limited to 50,000 gold baht.
Profits from land are too slow, but if you want to invest, I don’t object. Tao Hongmin said: In my opinion, it is certain that the land price is cut in half. I think the 30% discount is acceptable for our sale price.
Zhao Moxuan said: In the past, the price of land in Luodu was about ten gold baht per mu. The 30% discount was three to four gold baht per mu. The 100,000 gold baht was about three hundred thousand mu and three hundred hectares... It seems that there are not many
Cheng Zongyang bowed to Wang Hui and said with a smile: Please invite your wife, sister-in-law.
Wang Hui took out a page of paper, we calculated it, taking Luodu as an example, except for the Chize Mountains, the surrounding fertile fields are roughly 30,000 hectares of land under the name of Luodu merchants. The number of 2,600 hectares is copied from the Grand Secretary's Agricultural Bureau. According to our private investigation, it belongs to the merchants, but not registered. It is roughly equivalent to this number, with a total of about 5,000 hectares. The total family of tenants employed is no less than 50,000.
Cheng Zheng took a deep breath, no wonder there were so many fields!
The number of merchant households in Luodu is only one-thirty of the total households, but the land they occupy is nearly one-sixth. They hire tens of thousands of tenants to collect land rents. The rebukes against merchants in the memorial of the original order were not unreasonable.
Wang Hui continued: From the perspective of income, the land around Luodu produces three stones per mu, and the land rent is usually 40%, which is 144 kilograms of land in Han Dynasty, and 30 taxes. Then, excluding the labor cost of management, transportation and rent collection, the net collection of about one stone per mu can be about one stone per mu, Luodu grain price has now risen to 1,500 RMB per stone. This is not enough. According to the usual annual situation, the land rent of one mu can be earned by 600 RMB per stone.
The price of Luodu land per mu is approximately around ten gold coins, and six hundred copper coins is equivalent to three percent of the annual income.
Everyone was thinking that three percent annual income was not high, but very stable. Especially in some places where land rents were 50% or more, the grain prices fluctuated from time to time. If the current grain price was calculated, the annual income exceeded 7% and 50% of land rent was collected, the annual income was even close to 10%. This figure has exceeded the profit of ordinary business.
Wang Hui then started to talk about the main topic. Based on this, the price of land is six gold baht per mu, and the annual income is 5% worth buying; five gold baht per mu, and the annual income is 6%. If it drops to 30% and three gold baht per mu, the annual income is 10%. Once it drops to this price, I suggest investing all funds to purchase.
Everyone didn't make any noise for a long time
Finally, Tao Hongmin sighed: I just said it casually, but I didn't expect that I was really at a loss for any risk. I took 10% of the annual interest rate... Tsk tsk, it seems that this price will never be reduced.
High IQ can't help but say: 10% of the interest, this is not high
Qin Hui smiled and said: Compared with lending, of course, it is not high, but the risk is almost non-existent, which is not comparable to lending.
Wang Hui said: According to our statistics, the price of land will basically be stable at 30 to 1, which means the annual income of land rent is 3% of the annual income. Therefore, we can calculate the real price from the production of the land. After purchasing at a low price, we can earn twice or even three times the profit, without worrying about buying it at a high price or selling it at a low price.
High IQ grinned: It's really troublesome...
Regarding the expectation of the price of land, I have some calculations. Wang Hui said: The 30% discount that Tao Wuye said may not be possible.
Tao Hongmin was excited, please give me some advice!
The 5,000 hectares of land occupied by merchants are worth 5 million gold baht in a mu. Except for the money baht in the hands of merchants, all gold baht in Luodu may not be such a number. In addition, some gold baht will be invested in various goods sold at a low price, and even the purchase of slaves can be used for purchases of fields, which will not exceed two million gold baht. Therefore, I believe that the average price of land sold by merchants this time is that when the price is about four gold baht, the higher the price of land sold in the early stage, the more severe the decline will be in the later stage. If half of the land can be sold for six gold baht, the remaining half can only be sold for two gold baht.
Tao Hongmin said in disbelief: Two gold tills per acre?
Wang Hui said: Jinzhu is not a paper money, it is not a fall from the sky out of thin air. Since half of the fields have been used, the remaining half is only worth 500,000, but this number is just an estimate. If you want to accurately calculate the price of the fields and even the fluctuations of all goods, you still need the help of Tao Wuye.
What do you say about "Master Tao Wu"? Just call me Xiao Tao. Tao Hongmin said affectionately: If you need your brother to take action, sister-in-law just tells me!
I need the total amount of deposits in the Dow Money House and various money houses, as well as whether they are owned by merchants, so as to calculate the price fluctuations from the circulation of Luodu money baht
Tao Hongmin said: It’s wrapped around me!
The faster the better
No problem! Tao Hongmin stood up and I'll go now! I won't listen to the rest. Brother Zhao, Brother Cheng, you can do it!
Tao Hongmin was so decisive that Cheng Zongyang had to send him out and said: Are you so relieved about a business worth hundreds of thousands of gold coins?
Nonsense! What are you worried about with these people under your command? Tell you, I don’t dare to make any decisions on my sister-in-law, that brother, you offer a price! Is 100,000 gold baht enough?
You go quickly
Discuss Ah!
No need to discuss!
Then I'll poach people
Cheng Zongyang sneered and dig it casually!
I don’t believe it anymore. I can’t find a talent if I have so much money!
This is why you can't recruit talents. Cheng Zongyang said: Do you know what a national sage is? They are not just for money. You are a philanthropist.
Tao Hongmin felt like she was enlightened, so that's it! This talent is just like a beauty. Just talking about money is a vulgar Brother Cheng. You are so time to give advice!
when?
Those merchants want to disband their slaves, so I will search for a few people!
Don't forget the serious business!
Can't forget it!
Tao Hongmin's car drove out of the business in a hurry and rushed to the money house. Then Yun Cangfeng, who was joined by Luodu merchants to take advantage of the situation. At this moment, it was finally time to be proud. He spent several times the 80,000 gold baht to buy a title and official position. At this time, he became the best amulet and decided to contact Cheng Zongyang at any time. Yun Cangfeng left Cheng's house and began to manage the Yun family's layout.
Zhao Moxuan and Cheng Zheng also said goodbye that all the goods in Cheng Zheng were empty. Now he has a lot of money and has begun to wait and see the market changes. Once valuable items that are lower than expected appear, he is ready to buy them at any time. For this reason, he left one more step and found Cheng Zongyang and wanted to ask Ban Chao to help.
Cheng Zongyang agreed immediately, instead of letting Ban Chao sit in the study, it would be better to let him personally manage the Jinzhu siege to capture the city and land. Compared with Qin Hui's scheming, Ban Chao is more suitable to be a fierce general in the shopping mall.
Before leaving, Zhao Moxuan only said one sentence, be careful to tell the truth
Cheng Zongyang said: Don't worry, we think about going together, I have arrangements
Back in the hall, Cheng Zongyang began to assign tasks, with high IQ. You go to the Grand Marshal Palace and only need to do one thing. Ning Cheng gritted his teeth and only charged money, and could not be compensated by physical objects.
Become Ah
You have to be careful, those merchants are eager to jump over the wall, and they must do everything possible to lobby Ningcheng Grand Minister's Farmers in charge of financial planning. As long as he does not let go, the money in our hands will be of great use.
I understand! Yi Zongzang was idle after the imperial edict was awarded. No matter how many prices the merchants offered by Luodu were, I was one higher than them!
Just do you understand, Wang Meng is here?
Han Yu took a step forward, it was already here, waiting at the drama hero
Keep the door tight for the next few days, there will be movement in the city, so don't make trouble
yes
Cheng Zongyang looked at Jiang Anshi, Lao Jiang, our Pengyi Society's business may be compensated.
Jiang Anshi smiled and said: We don’t plan to make money by car or two, two car, two hundred and forty cents, and ten cars are only two hulls and not rely on this business to make a living. Of course, we can afford it.
Foreign business has temporarily stopped, so I will send Mr. Ha to Wudu first
Jiang Anshi's heels are together, yes!
Brother Fifth, please watch more for me in the house
There is no need to have Han Yu. Lu Jing said: I want to go out and find someone
Um?
We found the military newspaper of Zuowu Second Army. Qin Hui was on the sidelines: It's a bit strange.
Why is it strange?
The military newspaper is said to have been sent back by Zuo Wu's Second Army, but Lu Wu's judgment on the wear and tear of simplicity and Wei's writing, as well as the new and old words of the ink marks, the military newspaper is likely written in Luodu.
Someone fabricated the military newspaper?
The strange thing is that the paint prints on the military newspaper are original, not forged, we speculate that it is likely that the Second Army of the Zuowu Army sent back a blank military newspaper with a seal. Someone else filled it out in Luodu and it has been revised many times, so that the bamboo slips have been re-compiled.
Go to find the fake person from the forged bamboo slips?
Lu Jing said: There are some clues, I'll try to find out if I can pull him out.
Cheng Zongyang said: The death of Shishuai and the reputation of Xingyue Lake Camp are all major events, you can just let it go
Everyone left one after another, and in the end, only Qin Hui and Wang Hui were left, the couple left in the hall.
Cheng Zongyang smiled and said: My sister-in-law's plan today makes people open their eyes. It's so hard.
Wang Hui smiled, you guys chat, I'll make tea for you
Cheng Zongyang said: What was the arrangement just now?
The lord has made every decision, and this time it will definitely make a great victory, but compared with the lord's hidden backup, those gains can only be considered small profits.
Qin Hui said as he took out a heavy copper box, which was brought by Ruan Xianglin. He had already counted it, and there were 3,100 pieces in total.
This weight... can really kill people and go to meet Wang Meng
Wang Hui came in with a tea tray, and Cheng Zongyang said: Don’t bother sister-in-law, Brother Qin and I went to the backyard to discuss something.
OK, Wang Hui put away the tea tray and asked: Why didn’t you see Miss Li?
Cheng Zongyangqi said: Which lady Li?
Wang Hui smiled and said: Where are there people? Of course it is Nu Hero Ruan
Cheng Zongyang then remembered the head of Li and stammered: What happened to her...what has she gone out? My sister-in-law has something to do with her?
I haven't seen Shishi for a long time, I want to ask her how Shishi is
Cheng Zongyang's heart was slightly moved. He was thinking about this, but when he saw Ruan Xianglin, he subconsciously avoided it. When he was alone with Ruan Xianglin, he either inserted it in front of her or behind her, or it was above. It felt so embarrassing to mention his daughter at this time.
It's okay, when she comes back, I'll let her come to see her sister-in-law's wife
…………………………
There is a tomb above the cellar where Ju Meng is hiding. The tomb is inside and outside. There is no sunshine inside and outside, giving people a feeling of gloomy and weird. However, at this moment, the cry of babies kept coming from the tomb. The sound was loud and high, and it cleaned the gloomy atmosphere inside the tomb, and it was filled with vitality.
Wang Meng was holding a small baby like a bomb, his arms were stiff like a stone, and he held it hard in the air. He tried his best to coax the young master to take away his magical powers, but unfortunately he blew a circle of white foam on his mouth, but he couldn't coax him.
Ju Meng, wearing a silver mask, leaned on the couch, eating the grapes fed by Nao, while laughing in a slight way
No! No! Come and help! Wang Meng screamed: It's too soft!
What's this and that? In terms of seniority, you have to call him uncle
I can call him Master! Hurry up and take one!
Ju Meng said heartbrokenly: You are such a waste! He kicked Nao and went to coax him.
Nao came over to take the baby, and Wang Meng suddenly loosened his whole body, just like a huge rock in his arms was taken away by someone.
Oh, mom... Wang Meng complained: Why do you think my uncle can cry so much?
Are you hungry? Alas, you feed Ah
In front of Wang Meng, Nao could only untidy the clothes in a concealed manner, expose his nipples, and send them to the baby's mouth.
As a result, the child cried even louder after just one mouthful of his mouth
Yan Xiang came over and took the baby, oh, oh, and coaxed a few times, then sniffed, and said in surprise: What a big smell of alcohol, have you fed him to drink?
Cheng Zongyang happened to come in and was shocked when he heard this. You should feed him such a older child? It’s crazy!
No! No! Ju Meng quickly explained: Forgot to wipe it
Cheng Zongyang understands it, Xing Ah, Drama Hero, share a pacifier with your little brother Ah
Yanxiang laughed out loud
Nao blushed and lowered his head to cover his shirt
Cheng Zongyang said to Yanxiang: There are so many people, the air is not good, you can carry your child out first
Yanxiang has blessed her body and carried her child out
Cheng Zongyang glanced at Nao. She was tied to Ju Meng's couch, unable to leave her, so she had to stay here.
Is Guo Daxia good?
Wang Mengdao: Fortunately, the two places where Guo Daxia stayed in the past were found by the government one after another. All the families were ruined, Guo Daxia took several brothers to the mountain.
Do you have many brothers left here?
There are fifteen or sixteen, all of which can share life and death.
I heard that the Han Dynasty's knights are in great honor, helping the poor and helping the poor and saving people from water and fire, and never refusing to die
Guo Daxiao is righteous and righteous. Everyone knows that our brothers are not greedy for anything. They only respect Guo Daxiao's character and are willing to follow him.
If there is a weak child who is robbed by a big man, what would Guo Daxia do?
Of course, I should save the child first, and then ask the man what difficulties he has. Who would rob Ah? If you can help, please help me.
Cheng Zongyang choked for a moment. He had already written a draft, but he didn't expect that Wang Meng would pop up in the second half, making his metaphor impossible to beat.
Cheng Zongyang had no choice but to say bluntly: What if there was a rich man who was robbed by the government? Would you ask the government what difficulties were there?
Officials? Stop making fun of them, they will also ask for difficulties.
Cheng Zongyang choked again and had to praise: Well said!
What do you want to say?
Cheng Zongyang then introduced the topic. Do you know how to calculate the order?
Wang Meng shook his head, never heard of it
...You haven't heard of it?
We Han Rangers, why do we listen to the imperial edicts of the government? Is it the same?
It makes sense, otherwise why would it be a hero? Cheng Zongyang had to pinch his nose and tell Wang Meng about the calculation order.
Wang Meng slapped his thigh, and the government is considered to be doing some personnel!
