Chapter 532 Friendship between His Highness King Chu
The imperial envoy is traveling to the palace, in the flower hall.
The big households looked forward to the King of Chu and said, "We can't buy real estate in Jiangxi, but if the Weaving and Dyeing Bureau comes forward, there will be no problem, right?"
"You can buy it from the Dyeing and Weaving Bureau, but it's a lot of trouble." Zhu Zhen sighed and said:
"I took these three hundred thousand hectares of land from the hands of those big families in Jiangxi. If I sold it back to the Weaving and Dyeing Bureau, someone would definitely accuse me of using my left hand instead of my right hand and wantonly plundering people's wealth."
"You must have heard about the current situation in the court," he said with a wry smile: "How many pairs of eyes are staring at me. When the time comes, the saliva will kill me."
"Yes, yes, we didn't think carefully." How clever these big businessmen were, they immediately understood that Lao Liu didn't want to use this method. Otherwise, with his status and conduct, would he care about what others say?
So what if it's all a fart?
The big bosses didn't dare to expose it, so they quickly asked obediently: "I wonder what the regulations are, Your Highness?"
"Let's rent. Renting for a longer period of time is no different from buying." Zhu Zhen said slowly:
"This is what I think. The ownership of these 300,000 hectares of land remains unchanged and belongs to the Jiangxi government. Let the Weaving and Dyeing Bureau come forward to rent it. As for the lease period, let's set it for one hundred years."
"Then if the rent is right, it's really no different from buying it." All the big business owners nodded. They all understood the saying of 'a thousand-year-old field, eight hundred owners, the field is the owner and everyone is the guest'.
Even if the descendants are wise and capable of guarding it, it is difficult for a piece of land to be in their hands for more than a hundred years.
Therefore, renting for a hundred years is really not much different from buying it. Of course, the premise is that the rent cannot be too outrageous.
"Of course, how about one thousand yuan for one acre of land? And it's tax-free for the first ten years." Zhu Zhen smiled and said, "Isn't it the same as giving it away for free?"
"That's really good..." The big players nodded and whispered among themselves.
They are considered to be the smartest group of people in the Ming Dynasty. Before Lao Liu got angry, they were definitely still doing business, and they definitely didn't want to do a loss-making business.
Of course, when His Highness Neptune goes crazy, the most important thing is to save his life.
They know that an acre of land in Jiangxi is worth about 2,000 yuan for the upper field and 1,000 yuan for the lower field. But that is the purchase price alone. When it reaches a huge amount of 300,000 hectares, you cannot buy it even if you have money.
It costs one thousand yuan to rent for a hundred years, which is only ten cents a year. This rent is definitely not expensive.
And in fact, the tax exemption alone will cost about 30 million yuan in ten years, which is exactly the same as the rent.
So it is equivalent to paying taxes to Jiangxi Province for ten years in advance, and then white people for ten years. After that, for the next ninety years, you only need to pay taxes, not rent.
Guaranteed profit without loss.
Considering the significance of this business - allowing the food stamps to complete their final evolution, it will definitely be a huge profit!
"It's really like giving it away for free." Someone quickly nodded, and then everyone said: "The conditions are already very good, we can do it."
"Haha, to be honest, if it weren't for Jiangxi Huguang's urgent need for money, I would be embarrassed to ask Zeng Tai for such harsh conditions." Zhu Zhen laughed and said:
"But there is no need for us to feel guilty. Jiangxi Province has nowhere to pay for the 20 million yuan immigration fee. We are here to provide help in times of need. Of course, we cannot give it away in vain!"
"Yes, the prince is very thorough. If you follow the prince, you will never suffer in any aspect." The wealthy people in the south of the Yangtze River nodded happily.
"Then the matter is settled." Having solved two problems at once, Zhu Zhen was also very happy and said:
"In the name of the Weaving and Dyeing Bureau, we signed a long-term lease contract with the Chief Secretary of Jiangxi Province. Because they were in a hurry for money, they gave such a big discount, so we have to open up our spots. Within one year, we will give three thousand
Ten thousand yuan of rent is paid to people.”
"It should, it should." All the big players nodded quickly.
Lao Liu glanced at Gu Yuanchen: "How much money can the Weaving and Dyeing Bureau have in its account?"
"Not counting food stamps," Gu Yuanchen said softly, "it's about 10 million yuan."
The bulk of it was the one million gold donated by the big households. After excluding this huge sum, the gold, silver and copper coins in the accounts of the Weaving and Dyeing Bureau were really pitiful.
This is normal, because the operation mode of the Dyeing and Weaving Bureau is to issue food stamps and purchase silk. After certification, the silk is sold at a higher price.
So only the last link can generate income.
But when big households don't fully build confidence in food stamps, they will only use food stamps to buy silk. And the Weaving and Dyeing Bureau has to accept it, because once the Weaving and Dyeing Bureau refuses to accept it, the credit of the food stamps will immediately collapse.
…
The result was that the account was full of food stamps and there was no money at all.
This is indeed a huge hidden danger and must be resolved.
~~
The big players understood what Lao Liu meant as soon as they heard it, and they were not surprised at all.
In fact, the moment His Highness sent out the invitation, they knew that His Highness must be short of money again.
They were really touched. Even though His Highness Neptune could ask them to pay directly, he still tried to reason with them and made them willing to pay the money.
He really made me cry to death...
"Although twenty million guan is not a small amount, we can always make it up if we two hundred or so households put it together." Everyone's reaction was also very positive, and the fourth child, who was hiding behind the screen and listening carefully, almost jumped out of surprise.
The sound comes.
He couldn't help but whispered to Luo Guanzhong, who was accompanying him: "Does the sixth man have some witchcraft? How come these iron roosters that have never been plucking their hair are all changed in his hands? He took out 20 million dollars at once?"
"His Royal Highness was not in Suzhou last year, that's why I had this question." Mr. Luo pushed up his glasses and said with some pride: "It's a long story, I'll tell you in detail later."
After saying that, he wanted to slap himself in the face and cursed secretly: "Robben, Robben, why are you so proud?"
In fact, it is easy to understand the thinking of these big Jiangnan households. For the big households in Suzhou, whether they are behind bars or returning to their hometowns, they all have a lot of food stamps in their hands and cannot spend them. If they spend more money, they can give them away.
The food stamps in the store are completely solved. Isn’t it simply a wish?
As for those non-big households in Suzhou who begged grandpa to sue grandma and came with them, they have already set up stoves and cooked rice. If you want to get a share of the pie, don't you have to pay the price?
Spending one hundred and eighty thousand taels in exchange for a long-term meal ticket is very reasonable, okay?
And there is another very important point. His Royal Highness the King of Chu has initially established a good reputation in Jiangnan for not letting others suffer.
Everyone believed that he would not lose themselves, so they donated generously.
"Haha, good. You are indeed my good friends, good partners in the Dyeing and Textile Bureau, and good partners in the Shipping Department!" Zhu Zhen happily gave three comments.
"Thank you for the compliment, Your Highness!" The wealthy people were extremely happy. They knew the weight of these three sentences. That would be the ticket to the entire upper class society in Jiangnan in the future!
"Of course, I will never let my good friend suffer." Lao Liu said generously: "This money is loaned to you by the Weaving and Dyeing Bureau, and it can be borrowed and repaid in cash. You can choose food stamps, or
You can choose silk, which is certified of course.”
"No, no, no," the wealthy people were even more generous and refused one after another: "We have already made a lot of money to gain His Highness's friendship, how can we ask for it back? How can we be worthy of being His Highness's friends?"
"Fuck..." The fourth child behind the screen was completely speechless. Is the friendship of the sixth child so precious?
