Daxiangguo Temple, Kaibao Temple, Longxing Temple, Tianqing Temple and other major temples in Bianjing all hold Buddha bathing ceremonies. Each temple cooks seven treasures and five flavors porridge for the believers. This porridge is also called Laba porridge.
In the twelfth lunar month, the temple will send monks to deliver facial oil to believers one by one, and at the same time ask them to donate Yuan lamp oil money.
On this day, at the Bianjing Jiaoyin Institute, Zen Master Kongqing from the Daxiangguo Temple arrived with the Dusi and Superintendent of the temple, and personally presented facial oil to the Jiaoyin Institute.
The person who received the delegation from Daxiangguo Temple was Cai Jing.
Cai Jing has now obtained an official position and is a messenger.
Xishu Lingshi seizes a large number of yamen in Bianjing and is not a big figure. However, after managing this exchange for nearly a year, he has become a very important figure in Bianjing's business community...
Hearing the other party's words about donating oil money for Shangyuan lamps, Cai Jing put the tea bowl together and said: "The Shangyuan Lantern Festival in Daxiangguo Temple is famous all over the world, and Beijing has long admired it, so I plan to donate 30,000 yuan in the name of the Exchange.
Lamp oil money!”
Although Zen Master Kongqing was a monk, when he heard that Cai Jing was actually willing to pay 30,000 yuan, he immediately led all the monks to thank him.
Cai Jing said with a smile: "I have long wanted to admire Buddha, but during the lantern festival, I asked for ninety-nine lanterns. The largest and brightest lantern needs to be hung in the center of the temple for all the people who come to Daxiangguo Temple to see the lanterns.
Everyone in Beijing will see it!"
"Just like this, the poor monk must be able to do it," Zen Master Kongqing thought to himself. He had previously guessed that it would be great to be able to convert five thousand strings to ten thousand strings, but he didn't expect that he actually got thirty thousand strings. Seeing that things were done so smoothly. Zen Master Kongqing continued
He was happy and worried at the same time: "Don't you need to ask Shen Lingshi about this matter?"
Cai Jing smiled and said: "It's only 30,000 yuan, but I can still make the decision."
Zen Master Kongqing put his hands together and left, and all the monks looked happy.
When Cai Jing returned to the Yamen, he suddenly smelled a burst of aroma. It turned out that today the public kitchen of the Exchange was cooking porridge with mixed fruits and vegetables in advance of the Laba Festival.
Cai Jing walked to the courtyard with his hands behind his hands, and the officials saluted him one after another.
Cai Jing showed a proud look, thinking that at the beginning he was just an ordinary scholar in the Xinghua Army, and others mentioned that he was just a relative of Cai Xiang.
He has now given up on the road to the Jinshi examination. His younger brother Cai Bian has repeatedly told him that it is worth giving up studying and progressing for the sake of the job at the Institute of Citation.
Cai Jing thought it was worth it. Being an official is not an easy road. How many scholars are enterprising? How many of them have passed the Jinshi exam? Even if they pass the exam, they may live in poverty all their lives and their hair will turn gray.
Even if you are selected as a Jinshi, you still have to go through many years of hard work. You have been transferred internally and externally to local officials for many years. You can reach the level of three ministers like Cai Xiang. There are less than one official in ten who is a Jinshi. As for the prime minister
I can't even imagine it.
Instead of doing this, it is better to seize the tangible benefits in front of him. More importantly, in Cai Jing's heart, Zhang Xueshi is a scholar worth following.
When Zhang Yue went to Shaanzhou on a business trip, he taught Cai Jing a book of yin and yang candles. According to Zhang Yue, all he had learned throughout his life was in it.
There are thirty-six pictures in this picture, which are combined with the art of Beidou Tiangang, including "Three Red Soldiers", "Evening Star", "Dark Cloud Cover", "First Dawn", "Three Flying Crows", and "Cross Star" Wait, these graphics are unpredictable, and they are extremely accurate in predicting the price of salt banknotes. It can be said to be the most magical thing.
Cai Jing studied these thirty-six pictures every day and could not sleep at night.
To use an analogy, Cai Jing is now like Zhang Wuji who picked up the Nine Suns Magic Skills and got a peerless martial arts secret book from Zhang Yue for nothing.
Then Cai Jing controlled the exchange by selling high and buying low, and within half a year he made more than 100,000 yuan.
Cai Jing lamented that Zhang Yue was truly a god!
A copy of the Yin-Yang Candle Chart that was passed around casually shows that it has such unfathomable and unpredictable power.
Cai Jingshi doesn't know how many abilities Zhang Yue has.
At this time, he heard someone whispering something beside him. When Cai Jing heard this, he looked overjoyed and hurried to the hall.
Zhang Yue was sitting in the hall, drinking tea and reading his account book. Shen Yan, Chen's uncle and nephew were accompanying him.
Seeing this, Cai Jing held his breath and went to Zhang Yue's side to salute.
Zhang Yue raised his head and saw Cai Jing smiling gently and saying, "Yuan Chang is here. During the time I've been away, the Exchange Office has been really successful."
Cai Jing said quickly: "Everything is thanks to the bachelor's power."
Zhang Yue continued to look at the account and said, "Have all the monks from Daxiangguo Temple left?"
Cai Jing said: "Yes, they came here for the Lantern Festival lamp oil money. I took it upon myself to give 30,000 guan and asked them to buy 99 lamps with the name of the exchange office written on them. Among them was a dragon and phoenix more than ten feet high. The lanterns can be seen by all the people who come to watch them."
Zhang Yue glanced at Cai Jing appreciatively. There was no concept of advertising at this time, but Cai Jing was able to take advantage of the traffic of people at the Shangyuan Lantern Festival to get the name of the Exchange out of the way. He really thought ahead.
Zhang Yue said: "Thirty thousand guan is not expensive!"
Cai Jing was overjoyed when he heard this and was happy for Zhang Yue's appreciation.
Emperor Renzong loved Buddhism, and the worship of Buddhism was very popular in Bianjing. The same was true for Qi Niang. Her family donated money to the temple every year. Zhang Yue knew that Qi Niang’s biological mother became a monk, so he supported Qi Niang’s donation to the temple. .
After Zhang Yue looked at the account book, he felt that it was correct and said: "The three of you have worked really hard during my absence in Bianjing."
All three of them looked respectful.
Zhang Yue said: "Since everyone is here, let's hold a board meeting!"
Among the four, Zhang Yue represents the third company, the Shen family and his son represent the Shen family's shares, Shen Yan is still the chairman, and Cai Jing represents the management. As for the absence of Shaanxi Yunsi, Xue Xiang has ceded all the voting rights of Shaanxi Yunsi to Zhang. Yue Daixing.
As for other people, no one holds more than 3,000 shares, so they cannot attend the board of directors.
In fact, after Zhang Yue gave Wen Yanbo 2,000 shares before, he still had the 1,000 shares given by the Shen family and his son, in addition to some scattered shares. Qi Niang bought 500 shares in the market one after another, and Ouyang Jia, Wu Anshi and others also hold more than 1,500 shares.
If possible, Zhang Yue could send one of his own people to the board of directors, but there is no need.
Therefore, Zhang Yue convened a board meeting, and all three people expressed no objection.
Zhang Yue said: "The half-year profit of this transaction is more than 373,000 guan. I plan to use 325,000 guan as dividends. You also know that the imperial court is so tight on expenses, and the Third Division cannot make ends meet.
, the Xixia people in Shaanxi are watching with eager eyes, so the dividend money must be handed over to the court to eliminate the criticism between the government and the public. "
The Exchange and Citation Exchange received a dividend of 240,000 guan in the middle of the year. At that time, the Shaanxi Transportation Department distributed 150,000 guan, the three divisions 75,000 guan, and 15,000 guan as management dividends.
At that time, Shaanxi Yunsi accounted for the majority of 50,000 shares, the Third Division held 25,000 shares, and 5,000 shares were management shares.
This dividend is divided into three shares.
But the dividend of 325,000 yuan was the same. Later, the Shen family's uncle and nephew bought 25,000 shares (originally 30,000 shares, reduced by 5,000 shares), and the Jiaoyin Supervisor issued another 20,000 shares with private financing.
One million sticks.
The total is 130,000 shares.
Among them, 25,000 shares are in private circulation, so they are called tradable shares. The tradable shares mean that the subscriber does not recognize the shares. Nowadays, the tradable shares are those that can be bought for 100 shares in the market.
The 105,000 shares are non-tradable shares and are filed in the Securities Exchange Commission. Once any major shareholder wants to reduce its holdings, it must obtain the approval of the board of directors.
(The definitions of tradable shares and non-tradable shares are different from today! It’s just a name)
In this way, each of the 130,000 shares can be divided into two 500 yuan.
Shaanxi Yunsi received 125,000 guan, the third division received 62,500 guan, the management shares received 12,500 guan, the Shen family uncles and nephews received 62,500 guan, and the tradable shares also received
Sixty-two thousand five hundred guan.
The total annual dividends paid by the Stock Exchange are 500 yuan and 500 yuan per share.
The Shen family's uncles and nephews were given as much as the three divisions, but Zhang Yue thought it was necessary.
Although Cai Jing is talented, he lacks market experience and prestige. Let officials manage it, even though it has prestige, but it is easy to make bureaucratic mistakes. After the Shen family became a shareholder, they were responsible for most of the management of the exchange, making it more in line with the market.
Real integration has been achieved, and Zhang Yue knows that as they were the largest gold and silver dealer in Bianjing, they must have the support of a mysterious boss behind them.
As for who the big boss is, since the Shen family uncle and nephew are tight-lipped, of course Zhang Yue will not ask.
In short, a board of directors coordinates the interests of all parties.
Now that they heard Zhang Yue's distribution, Cai Jing and the Shen family's uncles and nephews listened to what Zhang Yue said and followed Zhang Yue's lead in everything.
"The board of directors must decide how to operate in this way, so I can rest assured if I am transferred from the third division judge..."
Hearing what Zhang Yue said, the three of them couldn't help but be surprised. They were completely unprepared for this.
To be honest, the establishment of the exchange's bidding system and the allocation of shares in the exchange are both pioneering moves, but Zhang Yue is about to leave...
Ana Shen asked: "May I ask the bachelor if he has heard any news?"
Shen Yan thought to himself that he had never heard of this matter. If it was true, he would settle the matter for Zhang Yue. The Institute now needs Zhang Yue's vision and insight to lead it.
Zhang Yue said: "I haven't heard any news."
In fact, on the first day when Zhang Yue opened the Exchange, he was preparing to leave the Exchange and how to continue its operation.
Zhang Yue said: "I heard that before a person succeeds, he has to withstand two hurdles. The first hurdle is rumors, and someone will slander you behind your back. The second hurdle is sewage, and someone will frame you for something you don't have to do. From ancient times to the present, there is no such thing. Nothing more than that.”
"The same is true for the Stock Exchange. It used to be invisible and you knew how much you made. But now one share is worth nearly a hundred dollars. How many shares do we have in total on the Stock Exchange? A total of 130,000 shares. Then That’s 13 million yuan, which is a quarter of what the imperial court takes in every year! Who wouldn’t be jealous of such a huge amount of money?”
"At this time, someone must have an idea for him. I don't know who this is now, but there must be someone! Just like a piece of gold falls on the ground, someone will inevitably come to pick it up."
Everyone's faces looked heavy after hearing this.
Cai Jing felt that this was to prepare for a rainy day, to anticipate events in advance, and to learn from the bachelor.
Zhang Yue said: "The simplest way is to remove me from the Salt and Iron Case of the Third Division and replace it with someone else. In the end, the real gold and silver of the court will be embezzled and profited, enriching one's own pockets!"
"That's why I'm telling you today that you need to be prepared for this!"
