"If Ming Dynasty is strong, we can naturally follow suit~"
"If Ming is weak, we will naturally be bullied."
"In the past, the people from the grasslands often went south, and every time they raided the border, the land of our Central Plains would flow into rivers of blood, and the rivers would be flooded with blood. Now that our Ming Dynasty is strong and powerful, who dares to attack our strong men?"
Liu Jin continued to speak slowly.
"The Ming Dynasty has become stronger. Not only do we not have to be bullied by others, we have conquered the grasslands, which are grazing cattle and sheep for us. We have conquered Nanyang, and the natives of Nanyang are planting sugar cane for us."
"When the country is strong, each of us living in it can do things with a straight back."
"But how can a country be strong?"
"If the imperial court does not have tax money, it will have no money. Without money, how can it raise a powerful army that can conquer all directions?"
"This is the simplest truth. When we pay taxes, we don't pay taxes for anyone, but for our country, for Ming Dynasty, and for ourselves."
"Since ancient times, a gentleman has loved money, acquired it in a wise way, and used it in a measured way."
When he said this, Liu Jin's tone changed slightly.
"I think some attentive friends have discovered that those present today include people from almost all places in the Ming Dynasty and from all walks of life, but Shanxi merchants are the only one missing."
After hearing Liu Jin's words, everyone's eyes lit up slightly, and they glanced around, and they immediately discovered this. Just as Liu Jin said, no one present was a Shanxi merchant.
"Many people will ask, why didn't I invite merchants from Shanxi?"
The smile on Liu Jin's face disappeared, and instead became cold and serious.
As soon as everyone saw this, they immediately began to speculate in their minds how on earth these Shanxi local rich men offended Liu Jin, so much so that Liu Jin entertained everyone except Shanxi merchants.
"Let me tell you something. There is a real estate called Shuxiang Yayuan here in Xicheng District. All the houses in this real estate have been sold, but the house was only built a little bit and then it was unfinished and will not be built.
.”
"And this real estate project was jointly developed by Shanxi merchants."
"It's not that they don't have money or that they have any difficulties, it's because they don't plan to build the house at all. The money has already gone into their pockets, but they don't want to build the house anymore."
"After making this money, they are planning to continue this operation in Dongcheng District, taking the money that people have worked so hard to earn into their own pockets, but they are not even willing to build houses."
After hearing Liu Jin's words, everyone immediately cheered up.
"Everyone, tell me, is this the way a gentleman loves money and gets it?"
Liu Jin looked at everyone and asked.
"Mr. Liu, I know this. I actually told Fan Hanshi of the Fan family about this not long ago. I told him that if people buy your house with the money they have saved so hard, you must at least give this house to
Once it’s built, give me an explanation.”
"They didn't take it seriously. I didn't expect that they had such a plan."
"This matter must not be tolerated. The real estate industry and the pre-sale system pioneered by the young master are very important to us, because we can buy a house in advance. This is equivalent to using other people's money to build a house. Once the house is built,
We will make another profit later.”
"If this pre-sale system is destroyed by these Shanxi businessmen, no one will buy our house in the future, and we will lose a profitable business in the future."
"If everyone doesn't dare to buy off-plan properties, the investment in developing real estate will be very large, which will put huge pressure on our funds."
When Li Chunyang from Sihai Commercial Bank heard this, he thought for a moment and immediately knew what Liu Jin was angry about.
"That's it~"
"These Shanxi merchants are just rat shit~"
"The pre-sale system created by Mr. Liu is also for the benefit of all of us. In order to make it easier for us to make money, if they do this, I will never even think about selling this building. Who will dare to buy your house before it is completed?"
"Yes, yes, if you do this, everyone will be afraid in the future. No one will buy this house. Building houses is very profitable. Everyone made a lot of money last year."
"What a Shanxi merchant, what a stinky rat~"
"This is not how you make money. It's not easy for ordinary people to make money. After all their hard work, they have nothing in the end. How dare they do this."
"This is going to cut off all of our financial resources!"
When everyone heard it, they immediately understood, and everyone shouted anxiously.
The real estate industry is also a relatively profitable industry for everyone nowadays. You can buy a piece of land, come up with a plan, and then start selling it for money. If you use other people's money to build a house, you will still make a profit.
There is no business in the world that is more profitable than this kind of business.
Now, if these Shanxi merchants continue like this, everyone's way of making money will be cut off.
Now I understand that these Shanxi merchants did not offend Liu Jin, but offended everyone. They were going to cut off everyone's financial path.
"grass~"
"Those Shanxi guys are looking for death~"
Zhang brothers, Zhang Heling couldn't help but cursed when he heard this.
The two brothers have also invested a lot of money in real estate and are preparing to make a lot of money this year. If these Shanxi businessmen are destroyed, their financial path will be gone.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but curse.
"Mr. Liu, just tell me directly, what should we all do?"
Someone stood up and expressed his stance, and everyone immediately looked at Liu Jin.
"A gentleman loves money and gets it in the right way. This way means that when we make money, we don't make money with bad intentions, and we don't make money that is in trouble for the country. We should not cheat on others and make money to surrender to the enemy and treason. Of course, the most important thing is not to make money that breaks the rules of the industry.
, ruining everyone’s financial resources.”
Liu Jin looked at everyone and said coldly.
Hearing Liu Jin's words, Prime Minister Feng, Zhu Benduan and some businessmen from the south of the Yangtze River could not help but shrink their necks slightly. It was almost their usual method in the past to make money for the country. As for the dirty money, this person present
How many of these people are not evil?
"I invented the pre-sale system, on the one hand, it is also to reduce everyone's financial pressure. The investment in a real estate often costs hundreds of thousands of taels. If there is no pre-sale system, how many properties can we open in a year?"
"Secondly, it is also for the benefit of everyone. Because of the pre-sale system, everyone can use very little funds to operate more properties, so that in a short period of time, ordinary people can have more houses to live in."
"Similarly, because there are more real estates, our cement factory business will be better, and ordinary people will be able to have more jobs and earn more money."
"This is a virtuous cycle. As long as everyone abides by the rules, everyone can make money from it, which is a good thing for the country and the people."
"But these Shanxi businessmen, they just want to make a fortune from it and make things like this unfinished. It's okay to have one or two such properties, but if they continue to do so."
"The damage will not only be suffered by the people who have paid money and can't get a house, but also for us, once this system can no longer be played, we will no longer be able to make money from it, which is equivalent to cutting off a line of wealth.
road."
"The people will not have more houses to live in, and the business of our cement factory, sand and gravel factory, building materials factory, etc. will also plummet."
"If things continue to escalate, what will His Majesty think of us?"
"What do the guilds in the court think of us?"
"What will the people of Ming Dynasty think of us?"
"When the time comes, they won't blame these Shanxi merchants. Everyone will only say that we businessmen are evil-minded and unjust, and our reputation will be completely ruined."
"Perhaps the court will issue various laws by then. In the end, it may not only be difficult for us to do business in the real estate industry, but also other businesses in the future."
After hearing Liu Jin's words, everyone's expressions changed drastically. If you think about it carefully, this is really the case.
Businessmen have suffered a lot of infamy since ancient times. Are all businessmen like this?
In fact, many businessmen are very law-abiding, but it is unscrupulous businessmen who ruin everyone's reputation and use unfair competition methods. They make temporary money, but they ruin the businessman's reputation.
Sometimes an industry will be completely destroyed.
"As far as I know, these Shanxi merchants are very unscrupulous in all walks of life they enter when doing business. On the grasslands, they purchase the wool and furs of the grassland people, and they often have a shortage of furs and sell them to the grasslands.
People’s things are also passed off as inferior, and they even use fake silver coins and banknotes to deceive the grassland people, so that many grassland people don’t trust us Ming merchants.”
"In Nanyang, their trading firms were also acting haphazardly and unscrupulously. Since the plantations they built could not recruit natives, they deceived people from Shanxi to go to Nanyang to farm land and sugar cane for them, treating us Ming people as slaves.
Come and treat.”
When Liu Jin said this, he glanced at everyone with cold eyes. Many people did not dare to look at Liu Jin's eyes and couldn't help but lower their heads.
There are many people who make money without conscience, and there are also many of these people here. Many people build houses and try their best to use as little concrete and steel as possible. The quality of the houses built is naturally worrying.
Liu Jin knew about this, and he gathered everyone this time not only to ban Shanxi merchants, but more importantly, to kill the chickens to scare the monkeys, so that everyone would understand the truth, a gentleman loves money and gets it in the right way!
No matter what business you are doing, you must do it according to your own conscience. When you engage in real estate, you will make money. You must build the house well and ensure the quality. You cannot say that the house collapsed within a few years after it was built.
When you go out to sea to do business, you make money, and you should let the people below you make money as well. You can't eat it all by yourself, and others will suffer and suffer, and they won't even be able to drink some soup.
"You tell me, what should we do with people who break business rules like this and will cut off all of our financial resources?"
At the end of his speech, Liu Jin's voice became very loud.
"What else can we do? Of course we will choke these stinky rats to death in the latrine."
The Zhang brothers were the first to stand up, looking very angry.
They were really angry. Although the two brothers were arrogant and domineering, they were still somewhat conscientious people in business, otherwise they would not have grown bigger and bigger.
Now that they heard that someone was going to cut off their financial resources, the two brothers were completely angry.
"Yes~"
"Choke them to death in the latrine."
Someone also shouted loudly.
"Block them so that they will not be able to do any business in the future. This bad rule will cut off everyone's financial path. If such people are not severely punished, more people will come to ruin our business and wealth in the future.
road."
"They must be blocked so that they can't do any business. Mr. Liu is working for everyone's benefit, but they are constantly poaching us all."
"We must punish them severely to serve as a warning to others!"
Everyone also expressed their opinions one after another. For such Shanxi merchants who destroy everyone's financial path, they are everyone's enemies. They must pay the price and be kicked out completely.
"Shanxi merchants will naturally be banned~"
"But I think these Shanxi merchants will definitely not be the first, nor will they be the last."
"I think we who do business and make big deals should set rules. From now on, those of us, or those in the Ming Dynasty's business community, must strictly abide by one principle in doing things. This principle is that a gentleman loves money and takes it.
With the Tao!"
"If someone doesn't abide by this principle, then the rest of us should join together and beat him to death."
"For example, in the case of real estate, if someone cuts corners and uses bamboo instead of steel bars, instead of using 10,000 barrels of cement, only 5,000 barrels are used. The house will collapse and many people will die.
Already."
"Then the court will severely investigate and deal with us. This loss is everyone's benefit. For such people, we should treat them the same as Shanxi merchants. Let's work together to choke such people to death in the pit."
"For another example, when there is a famine in the country, if someone maliciously raises the price of food and makes it difficult for the country to make money, everyone should unite and punish such people to death."
"Because these people ignore the national interests and the interests of our businessmen because of their own small profits. In the end, they harm the interests of everyone because of their small profits."
"We should work together to kill these rats that ruin a good pot of porridge."
"Everyone present here is the most powerful person in our business community in Ming Dynasty. We can represent our business community in Ming Dynasty. Things in the past have passed, but in the future, we should be more united with each other and work together to contribute to the construction of Ming Dynasty.
, who in the Ming Dynasty will become bigger and stronger."
"Let our Ming Dynasty become more prosperous and prosperous, and let our descendants of Yan and Huang spread all over the world with the rise of the Ming Dynasty, instead of harming everyone's interests for our own selfish interests."
"Today, we will all join forces to ban Shanxi merchants, this stinky rat, and let everyone know the consequences of doing unjust business!"
