Zhen An and the others were shocked when they heard that the annual output value of Glass Town exceeded 10 billion. Although in recent years, because of Xu Wei, Hebei has many profitable industries, such as the textile industry, which has an annual output value of hundreds of billions, but the textile industry The business has also developed bit by bit, and now the profit does not exceed 30%.
For example, the glass industry can actually develop an output value of tens of billions in just three years. It is rare in Daqian, especially since they know that the glass industry is a luxury product and generally has several times the profit. The output value is high and the profit is huge. It is simply the favorite industry of these businessmen.
Fortunately, they are self-aware and know that this is a gold mine created by the ruling government, and they dare not enter rashly. And if they are like other small businessmen and are counterfeit jewelry merchants, they will look down upon dozens or even millions of dollars!
Then, under the leadership of Zhang Baiqi, everyone entered the glass factory for inspection. Everyone watched as the quartz sand was put into the furnace, quickly turned into a solution, and then taken out. Anyway, it was quickly cooled into flat glass in a special tray.
Zhang Baiqi looked at the flat glass and said proudly: "This is the biggest product of the glass factory. A large number of wealthy families want to replace their window paper with breathable and warm glass windows! We have orders for next year. It can be said that the supply exceeds the demand, and there are a large number of carriages and transport ships transporting these flat glass every day!”
Zhen An said with envy: "This piece of flat glass is worth hundreds of dollars, and all the glass on this assembly line is money. This is much more profitable than our textile factory or fishing factory!"
The factories that Zhen An owns now are basically labor-intensive. A lot of the money he earns becomes the monthly salary of the workers. The monthly salary of the workers is relatively high. He dare not treat these workers badly. First, because Daqian protects the workers. If he dares to mistreat workers, he will definitely be punished by Da Gan. In this regard, Da Gan has no mercy at all.
The second is that the industrial scale of the entire Daqian is now in a period of rapid expansion, especially the industries created by Xu Weixin are in a period of rapid development. It can be said that every industry in Daqian now lacks workers, and the new industries are even more lacking. If they dare to treat workers badly, they will immediately go to other factories. The current environment allows workers to have equal status with businessmen like Zhen An. At least they have a bargaining position.
This environment has led to the large-scale industries in Zhen An's hands with low profits. For example, the largest textile industry in his hands now has only 10% profit, while the shipbuilding and fishing industries with high profits are not It takes a long time to refinance the funds, but the scale is small! As for high-tech industries with high profits and large output values, such as glass factories, they really don’t have one in their hands!
Then Zhang Baiqi took them all the way to see the workshops where the glass factory manufactures various glass items, such as glasses workshops, magnifying glass workshops, pots and pans and other daily necessities workshops, etc.!
Later, when they arrived at the last workshop, Zhang Baiqi prohibited them from entering and said: "This is the most secret workshop of the glass factory, the workshop where mirrors are made! Only the governor can go in and see, and no one else is allowed to enter!"
"A workshop that produces mirrors!" Zhen An and the others were surprised again!
Then everyone looked at the glass mirror workshop as if they were seeing a gold mine, and their eyes were about to shine with golden light!
To say that the status of glass as the top luxury product of the Han Dynasty was completely shattered, but the mirror has replaced it, even worse. Even the bronze mirror with thousands of years of history has been completely replaced by the glass mirror, because glass
The mirror shines brightly on people, and even the hair on the body can be clearly seen. Many people see their own faces clearly for the first time through the glass mirror. Many people even think that the glass mirror is a magic weapon.
This has resulted in the high price of glass mirrors. A palm-sized mirror costs tens of thousands of dollars, and no one thinks it is worth it. Every woman in the world goes crazy when she sees a glass mirror.
Xu Wei laughed when he heard what Zhang Baiqi said: "Since it's confidential, I won't go in. You ask the workers to take out a manufactured mirror and let us see what the glass mirror looks like!"
Soon Zhang Baiqi asked the workers to come out with a mirror as high as one person and said: "This is a full-length mirror used to organize your appearance! It is a product just made by the glass factory and has not been released yet!"
After bringing this mirror, everyone can really see their whole body in the mirror!
Jia Xu exclaimed: "It's really magical. If there weren't so many mirrors like this, I would have thought it was a magic weapon that can capture people's hearts!"
The glass mirror is so clear that even people like Jia Xu think it is a magic weapon!
Xiangkai smiled and said: "You on the front line don't know how crazy the women of Jixian County are now about mirrors. Any woman who gets a mirror like this must call her relatives and friends to show it off. A palm-sized mirror costs tens of thousands of dollars."
This mirror will probably cost a million dollars! If a woman knows this kind of mirror and doesn’t go crazy, this glass factory is really making money every day!”
Xu Wei smiled and said: "We are guests today. Zhang Baiqi, you give everyone a small mirror as a gift. It is not in vain for everyone to come here!"
Zhang Baiqi nodded and said: "No!"
Although the price of mirrors is high outside, the price in the glass factory is not too high. It is just some quartz sand and tin, which is not a precious thing!
But Zhen An and the others were all smiles. For them, the price of glass mirrors was second to none. They could afford even the most expensive full-length mirrors, but it was too difficult to reserve. When glass mirrors appeared, most of them were in the Western Regions.
, and after they learned about this product, the glass factory had received orders for next year, and they needed a lot of time to queue up!
Soon Zhen An and the others each got a small mirror as big as a palm!
At this time Zhen An asked: "Zheng Zhen, you said you came to us here because you have a good deal for us. Do you want us to sell these glass mirrors?"
Tian Zhong immediately said: "As long as I make mirrors, I can get as many mirrors as I want!"
Don't look at mirrors that can be sold for tens of thousands of dollars in Daqian, but he is sure that if these mirrors are sold to the Western Regions, the people of the Western Regions will definitely go crazy. Even hundreds of thousands of nobles from the Western Regions will rush for them! But this
The most important thing in buying and selling is speed. If he is the only one selling, he has the final say on the price. But now that there are ten caravans that can do business in the Western Region, the supply of goods is the most important!
Xian Yuying said angrily: "You old dog, you actually want to monopolize and make mirrors that I am willing to pay double the price for from the glass factory!"
Other merchants are also a little interested. This kind of expensive luxury goods has the highest profit. It is the best time to travel the caravans in the Western Regions. If there are a large number of glass mirrors as goods, the business routes in the Western Regions can quickly make back their money!
Xu Wei smiled and said: "The glass factory has sufficient supply, please rest assured, but this time I brought you here not to sell glass mirrors, but to this factory. I wonder if you are interested in investing in the glass factory!"
"What!" Zhen An and the others looked in disbelief. The government actually wanted to sell a gold mine that was making huge profits every day. Were they not dreaming?
"You must not take power!" Zhang Baiqi couldn't control many people and immediately stopped him!
The glass factory in Jizhou was built bit by bit by Zhang Baiqi. He didn't want to just sell the gold mine in Jizhou!
Xu Wei brought Zhang Baiqi to an office and explained to him: "The reason why I plan to sell the glass factory is to solve Daqian's debt problem! You must also know that Daqian's debt now exceeds 80 billion. The annual interest alone exceeds 6 billion, and everyone is a little worried, so I plan to sell some shares of the glass factory to pay off the debt!"
Zhang Baiqi said: "In power, the glass factory can now earn more than one billion yuan every year, and the profits are still increasing. Selling such a gold mine is too short-sighted!"
Jia Xu coughed when he heard this! Bai Qi's words were too direct. If this was put to Dong Guoxiang, he would be whipped!
Xu Wei laughed and said: "It is because the glass factory makes money that we can sell it at a high price and repay this debt. How could a worthless factory repay a debt of 80 billion!"
Zhang Baiqi was shocked and said: "In power, you plan to sell the glass factory for 80 billion!"
Even he thinks this price is too exaggerated. Although the glass factory is a gold mine, this 80 billion is a gold mountain. This is not an adjective, but a fact. According to Dahan's exchange ratio, 80 billion is equivalent to 8 million kilograms of gold. , even according to modern units, it is equivalent to 2,000 tons of gold. This is not a gold mountain!
Jia Xu was also shocked and said: "It's so heroic to be in power. No wonder he wants to bring big businessmen like Zhen An to the glass factory. They really can't afford this glass factory!"
Xiangkai said: "Even Zhen An and the others can't afford it, unless the entire Daqian merchants' funds are combined to make this possible! And this is just a possibility, I doubt they may be able to afford so much money!"
You must know that Daqian's annual fiscal revenue is now close to 40 billion yuan, and Xu Wei's tax collection ratio is also close to modern times. Calculated as Daqian's fiscal revenue is 20% of GDP, the entire Daqian GDP may be around 200 billion , and 80 billion is 30% of Daqian’s GDP. In modern times, there are really not many businessmen with such huge wealth!
After Zhang Baiqi and the others were shocked, Xu Wei said with a smile: "Of course it is impossible to sell a glass factory for 80 billion. I'm afraid it will be difficult for Zhen An and the others to come up with so much money. I want to sell the shares of the glass factory to the entire Rich businessmen all over the world, even those on the side of the Han Dynasty!"
Since we have to cut leeks, of course it is best to cut off the wealthy merchants on the Han side. If they don't bring out some good things, they won't come over.
"Look, the profit of the glass factory is now 1.2 billion yuan, and it will continue to increase. My price of 100 million yuan is not too much for the market value of the glass factory! Then I set the price of the glass factory at 10,000 yuan per share, which means
There are 3.6 million shares in the glass factory, but spending tens of thousands of dollars is nothing to the wealthy businessmen in the world. With stocks, everyone can pay dividends every year!"
Shit! At this point, Xu Wei got stuck. He found that the price-to-earnings ratio was too high, and the dividends based on shares could not even beat the bank's interest. He really didn't know why modern people like to play stocks! But he thought of the glass factory's rapid profit growth.
, it should be able to outperform the bank's interest rates very soon. At worst, he will cut interest rates and let everyone buy stocks!
Xu Wei felt that the price-to-earnings ratio of 30 times could not be lowered. Any lower would be uneconomical. This should be considered very conscientious in China's stock market, and compared with profits, it is even more terrifyingly low. With the market value of the glass factory
, if you find someone who can tell stories, you can come up with a price-to-earnings ratio of 100 times. Maotai can match the GDP of several provinces. The GDP of his glass factory, which is more than half of the country, is not excessive!
The number of factories in Daqian is increasing day by day. Zhang Baiqi and the others also understand what market value means, and then they secretly calculate in their hearts. In the first year, the Jizhou Glass Factory not only made more than a billion yuan from Zhang Baiqi, but also made money from the powerful Han clan.
The profit increased to more than 300 million in the second year, and then the profit increased to more than 600 million in the second year. This year, because of the golden product of glass mirror, even after October, the profit of the glass factory exceeded 1.2 billion, and the profit for the whole year was only 100 million.
Even 500 million cannot stop it.
According to this trend, I am afraid that the profits of the glass factory will be even higher next year, and if the profits double next year, it will be really cost-effective. Thinking about it, 36 billion does not seem to be too much for the glass factory.
Gao, if they have money, they will also find ways to buy shares in some glass factories!
If you compare it, you can understand what Jia Xu and others think. An acre of fertile land in the Han Dynasty costs about 20,000 yuan, and the land only has at most three stones of grain a year. You can't take it all away, at least half of it is left for the tenants to pay taxes.
And make rations, and the farming technology of the Han Dynasty was not developed at this time, and the land needed to be left fallow, which meant that you could only get a few buckets of grain a year, and the profit from farming was only about 2-3%. Of course, you have the power, you can
Tax evasion can increase to 5-6%!
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! But at this time, natural and man-made disasters are constantly occurring in Han Dynasty. Disasters will occur half the time in ten years, and the profits will be even less. It can be said that in addition to stability, the business of land
Making money is really not worth mentioning!
And if you want to open a factory, the profit will naturally be high. Nowadays, the profit of Daqian factory is more than 30%, and the profit of some new industries is more than double!
But not everyone can do it. At the very least, Jia Xu knew that it would be difficult for him to open a factory, and it was not without risks. Just like the textile industry, profits more than doubled when it just started, but within a few years,
Less than half of the factories have closed down. Now the profits of the textile industry are only more than 10%. That is to say, big businessmen like Zhen An can still carry it, but all the factories that cannot carry it are bankrupt. From this aspect, the factories
It is indeed riskier than farming. After all, if you farm, even if there are natural disasters or man-made disasters, the most you can do is benefit from a few seeds, and you will never go bankrupt!
Xu Wei continued: "Let Zhen An and the others get some shares first, and then find someone to brag about the benefits of these shares. No, with the market conditions of our glass factory, this is not bragging at all, but advertising.
Everyone knows how our Jizhou Glass Factory makes money! The key point is to let them know that we have a gold mine in Jizhou.
Then, we raise the price every few days, so that everyone will gradually accept the fact that the shares of the glass factory are gradually rising, and let everyone know that they can buy shares of the Jizhou Glass Factory. At this time, we only release a small amount of shares, resulting in a loss of shares.
The price has no market, and everyone can’t buy the shares even with five baht. Let the stock go crazy. When the heat is almost over, we can quietly release a large number of shares. Then it’s time to make money. As long as the shares in our hands remain
More than 50%, no matter how many stocks there are outside, the control of the glass factory is still in our hands."
"We are using other people's money to solve our current problems! And the glass factory still belongs to us!"
After hearing this, Jia Xu was shocked and said to Xu Wei: "In terms of wealth, there will never be anyone more powerful than us in power. Tao Zhugong is indeed not one ten thousandth of the power in power!"
According to Xu Wei, they have made tens of billions by selling this glass factory, but the factory still belongs to them. Such ability to do business is simply unheard of and unseen. In comparison, history
