The first thousand six hundred and seventy-six chapters go with brother, guarantee to make a fortune
"The Prime Minister is here."
"The common people see the Prime Minister."
...
Li Qi came to the conference hall and saw more than 20 people standing inside. All of them were wearing rich clothes. He looked like a wealthy owner. He knew several of them. Cai Minde was one of them. He clicked lightly.
He lowered his head, stretched out his hand and said: "Everyone, sit down, Lao Tian, you can sit down too."
"yes."
More than twenty people sat down one after another.
Li Qi sat down, took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, glanced over, and said with a relaxed expression: "It's just twenty colleges, are they so important to each of you?"
A silk merchant named Hao Mingyi said: "I am surprised by what the Prime Minister said. Originally we just wanted to open more colleges for the people of Hangzhou, but now the Legislative Yuan has withdrawn this proposal. The reason is because of the Prime Minister's remarks.
If this matter is resolved privately, the Prime Minister will definitely come to us. We are here just to share the worries of the court."
These words were so beautiful that Li Qi couldn't help but admire this person. He obviously wanted to come here to see what kind of money could be fished out, and he said it so grandly, but now Li Qi didn't have the time to go around with them here.
He walked around, nodded and said, "I'm very grateful for your consideration. Yesterday, I discussed it with Magistrate Ouyang and the others and prepared to open an academy city."
"Academy town?"
All the businessmen were shocked.
This is described as a city. Its scale can be imagined, so there must be oil and water in it.
Cai Minde was even more happy. The wood in his hand was finally found, and he hurriedly asked: "I wonder what this academy city means?"
Li Qi snorted and wrote lightly: "It's very simple, just build twenty colleges together."
This made everyone take a deep breath of air-conditioning. What a huge piece of land this requires!
A landowner named Yang Wei said: "But it is difficult to find such a large piece of land inside and outside Hangzhou, unless it is built on farmland."
The rest of the people nodded. They knew the situation of the land in Hangzhou very well. They would never find such a large piece of land.
Li Qi smiled and said: "Maybe it will be built farther away. Reading is not a pleasure. I believe it's okay to be a little remote."
All of these people are as smart as monkeys, and their eyes are rolling around. Once this is confirmed, the land price of that piece of land must be very different. Cai Minde laughed and said: "I don't know if the imperial court plans to build this college."
Where?"
You old fox, if you still want to pay attention to this, just go ahead and dream about it. Li Qi smiled and said: "We are still discussing it. Don't say that this matter is not under my control, I don't know, even if I know, I tell you,
It doesn’t have anything to do with you, so don’t pay attention to what’s going on here.”
The implication is that once it is determined, the land will be completely included in the imperial court's planning. No private parties will be allowed to participate.
disappointment!
The merchants are very disappointed. It is too unfair for the court to play alone.
Li Qi smiled again and said: "The imperial court can help you solve the land issue. But as for money, I need your support."
Cai Minde immediately said: "This is our responsibility. It is our honor to contribute to Hangzhou. We have no objection."
Only a lot of people reacted and quickly agreed, while many others were still confused.
Li Qi suddenly laughed.
Cai Minde felt guilty and said: "Why are the Privy Council laughing?"
Li Qidao: "Don't rush to agree yet. Listen to me first."
Everyone looked at Li Qi curiously.
"Perhaps you have misunderstood me. What I mean is that the land is provided by the court and the money is provided by you, but just because you build a college on it does not mean that the land belongs to you."
"this---."
The loyalty on Cai Minde's face seemed to be engraved on his face, and he was extremely stiff. His mind was spinning quickly. He knew that once it was built into a college city, the land value of the entire land would definitely soar, and even that area would be prosperous, and it would be prosperous in Hangzhou.
Every inch of land is precious. If you build a college first, raise the price of the land, and then use it for other purposes, you will definitely make a lot of money. Plus, you can sell the wood in your hands. This is simply too much.
So cool.
But the ideal is full and the reality is backbone.
How could Li Qi let them get this big deal for nothing?
But even after Cai Minde had said the words, he was too embarrassed to take them back, and quickly winked at Hao Yi who was standing aside.
Hao Yi understood the idea and hurriedly said: "Prime Minister, we really want to contribute to the people of Hangzhou, but for this college, even if the land is free, the investment is huge, the possibility of loss is very high, and the return of the capital is slow.
, twenty colleges, it is really difficult for us just to support it, and we are also powerless."
The rest of the people said they were more than willing but not strong enough.
This is so unfair. We paid to make this land prosperous, but we don’t have a share in the land. All the money went to the court. This business was done in such an unkind manner.
Li Qi smiled and said: "Don't be too anxious to cry for poverty. Although this land belongs to the imperial court, as long as you are willing to participate, you will benefit."
"What's the benefit?"
These businessmen are quite straightforward.
Li Qi liked their directness and said: "I believe you all have an account in your heart. Once the college city is established, no matter where it is built, the area will be prosperous, and many people will move there.
Therefore, in the initial planning, the imperial court will also build a residential area and three streets around it. Anyone who participates in investing in the college city area will receive stores of various sizes and locations according to the amount of money they invest.
Rent-free for 20 years. During these 20 years, I believe you will earn back your capital and there will be some leftover. After two years, participating businessmen will still receive preferential rents."
Cai Minde and others began to calculate in their hearts. Two years is too essential. It should be no more or no less. Yang Wei said: "Prime Minister, twenty years is too little. It must be at least fifty years."
.”
"Fifty years?"
Li Qi chuckled: "Then you are a little too greedy. The value of a brand new city is much greater than that of an old city. You should also know this, especially in the early stages. This is simply
During the prime time, if you think there is less, you can spend additional money to rent land. You still have priority. In addition, as for the colleges, the twenty colleges need a lot of things, such as the four treasures of the study, chairs and benches, food, etc.
Wait, you also have the priority to cooperate with these transactions, so the money is quite a lot."
A businessman who specializes in making groceries said: "Then how does this college make a profit? Is it following the talent draft system of Taishi College?"
Li Qi knew this man and was very familiar with him. He was Uncle He Jiu's nephew, He Rui.
"The talent draft system is difficult to imitate. It requires a lot of investment in the early stage. Once it fails, you will lose everything. Therefore, I do not recommend using this talent draft system." Li Qi shook his head and said: "I
It is also not recommended to rely on the college to make money. Although the people of Hangzhou are now rich, they are unable to pay the huge tuition fees. I just hope that the college can balance its expenses."
Another person said: "If this doesn't make money, it will be difficult to last!"
Li Qi smiled and said: "In Shangyanshang, from a business point of view, these twenty colleges are just bait. Do you have any other ways to build a new city in the least amount of time?"
Everyone was silent.
Li Qidao: "Those who want to use the college to make profits are really short-sighted. It is the new city that makes money. Once the college city is established, then this new city will have unlimited business opportunities and inexhaustible wealth. This is the big head.
.You guys don’t look down on that little bit of petty profit.”
Cai Minde thought to himself, there are so many people, they must eat. I opened two restaurants there, and everything came back. He patted the table and said: "Okay, I, Cai, agree with the Privy Councilor's suggestion."
He Rui smiled half-heartedly and said: "Executive member, I heard that you transported a lot of cheap wood from the Lingnan area. Why don't you do a good deed and donate all the wood to contribute to our Hangzhou."
With these words, Cai Minde had the urge to scold her. I did all these things just to earn this money. If you ask me to donate it, it will cut off my financial path. He smiled and said: "You can't say that."
In this way, doing good is doing good, and buying and selling is buying and selling, and they cannot be confused. If the government wants to buy this batch of wood from me, I can give you a preferential price, and it is no big deal."
Many people are dismissive of it. No matter how big the discount is, you still make a lot of money. You can make back your original investment with this money alone, but we don’t.
Old fox! Li Qi cursed secretly and said with a smile: "I agree with other members, donations are donations, and sales are sales. This matter should be clearly understood." At this point, he suddenly changed the topic and said: "But if you think that the investment academy is
If this is just the case, then you are thinking too simply. In fact, the academy is just a springboard to help you jump to a broader platform."
These words cheered up the merchants, including Cai Minde, who asked suspiciously: "What did the Privy Council say?"
"It's very simple, Tubo."
"Tibet?"
Li Qi nodded and said: "Now that Tubo has been included in our Song Dynasty, the land is very large, and the land is sparsely populated, and the wealth it possesses is immeasurable. To be honest, the imperial court has begun to develop Tubo.
Soon, the first batch of merchants were selected to go to Tubo to do business. When Jiangnan was developed, the first batch of merchants who went south have now made a fortune. The reason is the same, because the imperial court will definitely give some advice to the first batch of merchants who settled in Tubo.
A very preferential policy, that's for sure. As for the selection criteria? Strength is only one of the reasons. The key lies in the contribution to the Song Dynasty. If you are willing to invest in the academy, you will have a great impression on the court.
Extra points, I will come out and say a few words to you when the time comes, and this piece of fat will definitely not be able to escape."
"Tubo?" Cai Minde frowned and said, "I heard that Tubo is not as fertile as Jiangnan. The terrain is excellent, and Tubo is very chaotic. Isn't this too dangerous?"
Many people nodded.
Everyone knows that Hangzhou is good, but Tubo is bad, and no one wants to go there.
"Executive member, I am very disappointed with what you said."
Li Qi shook his head and said: "This Tubo is a treasure land."
Cai Minde said: "I would like to hear your advice."
Li Qidao: "The key lies in the geographical location of Tubo. Everyone should be familiar with the issuance of currency this time. It should also be seen that in the next ten years, the imperial court will further expand foreign trade, so the Western Regions will become the focus of foreign trade.
In the first market, whoever is closer to the Western Regions will be able to do business faster. In the territory of the Song Dynasty, Tubo is the closest to the Western Regions. If merchants from the Western Regions can buy the goods they need in Tubo, they will also travel across mountains and rivers.
Are you coming to Hangzhou? Not only that, Tubo is also very close to Dali and Jiaozhi counties. The two counties have just been developed, and there are so many opportunities to make a fortune.
Let's put it this way, if you push your business to the Tubo area, build workshops in Tubo, and export goods directly from Tubo, first of all, this will save a huge amount of travel expenses, and the land price in Tubo is really cheap. If it is
When Tubo builds an academic city, the price is so low that you can’t even imagine it. The cost is naturally lower. Compared with domestic merchants, merchants in Tubo have a natural price advantage. Secondly, the first batch of merchants to go are one step ahead.
, This is one step faster in doing business, but the distance of this step is probably insurmountable. Finally, I revealed to you privately that Tubo is too barren and backward. Now that Tubo has surrendered to me, the Song Dynasty, the imperial court will definitely develop the area.
There are definitely major projects.”
Tempting!
No one is unmoved.
If you go to Tubo to do business, you can directly intercept the merchants coming to China. If you build a factory in Tubo, the goods will reach the Western Regions as soon as they leave. Moreover, judging from Li Qi's words, the imperial court should give a lot of support.
This is a typical small investment with big returns.
Hao Yi suddenly said: "But Tubo has always been in chaos, so it's not suitable for business."
Li Qi smiled and said: "You can rest assured that if the imperial court cannot provide you with a peaceful environment, it will not let you take risks!"
You must know that Tubo has never surrendered to the Song Dynasty, and due to the long-term civil war, the goods of the Song Dynasty have not completely entered Tubo. This shows that Tubo has a high demand for the goods of the Song Dynasty. This is a business opportunity.
In addition, the Hehuang area has become wealthy. Why, it is because merchants from the Western Regions chose the Hehuang area to go to the Song Dynasty, which made the entire Hehuang area prosperous. However, the Hehuang area is not as safe as Tibet. After all, the Hehuang area is tight.
Close to Xixia.
The group of businessmen struggled for a while, but it was Cai Minde who first made the final decision: "Privy Councilor, please rest assured, no matter what others think, I, Cai Minde, will definitely support the government's college city plan."
When other businessmen saw Cai Minde speaking in such a heartless tone, how could they not understand that Tubo is indeed not a very good place. The key is that the climate is too bad and it is a plateau. But the problem is that the Western Region is the largest market for the Song Dynasty's foreign trade.
, Tubo is close to the Western Regions. For the common people, I am afraid no one wants to go to Tubo, but for businessmen, this is a treasure land, and if you go now, everything is cheap, just like Jiangnan back then.
Almost all businessmen present expressed their willingness to support the government's college city plan.
Li Qi chuckled, picked up a cup of tea, and said: "Well, I wish us happy cooperation with this cup. Oh, I almost forgot to mention that our Zuixian Villa will also fully support the academy city plan, and our Zuixian Group I will also go to Tubo as soon as possible."
The most profiteer in the world has said so, so this matter is definitely not wrong.
The businessmen sitting here were all grateful for their decision and raised their glasses in return. The flattery was like a tsunami, blowing everyone in the air. For a gentleman, flattery is very precious, because there are few gentlemen. Say, but for businessmen, flattery is the cheapest, because they say it every day, no matter who the other party is.
