The cart was full, with ten big boxes, each containing 10,000 yuan, and they were all the best five-baht coins. They were large and of good quality, adding up to exactly 100 gold. Looking at the whole box placed in the hall
Lining up the boxes, Liu Hong was a little excited. It's not that he has never seen so much money, but he has never seen such a big return. He only gave away 500 gold last month, and this month's income is 100 gold. At this rate
The cost will be recovered in five months, and there will be a profit every month from now on.
Sang Yuji wanted to speak, but finally kept his mouth shut. Zuo Wu and Wu frowned. They felt that there was something wrong, but they couldn't figure out where the problem was. If Su Ren didn't give him a penny, how could he still say Su Ren
Tan Mo paid five hundred gold, but Su Ren gave him a bonus and returned so much, so they couldn't say more. If they said the wrong thing, they would probably be disgusted by the excited Liu Hong.
Liu Hong was in a good mood. After seeing enough, he was carried down and stored in the warehouse: "Okay, Su Ren didn't bully me this time!"
Sang Yuji handed over his hand and said, "Master, Su Renyan said this is just last month's dividend. If everything goes well, next month's dividend will be much larger. He also said that if Master intends to invest more, the return will be even more generous."
Liu Hong nodded: "I also have this intention, and I will go to the palace to report to my father."
"Sir, wait a minute!" Wu Ban quickly stopped Liu Hong: "Sir, wait a minute, I always feel that something is not right. How about waiting for another month? If Su Ren can still send so much money by then, can I report it to the king?
Late."
"Waiting for another month? I'm afraid that's not appropriate. My father and Su Ren have already discussed it a few days ago. They will go to Chang'an together in a few days. If my father and Su Ren both leave, wouldn't it be a waste of so much money?
?”
Sang Yuji added: "Su Ren also said that this time he only earned one hundred gold per month from the five hundred gold. If he invested one thousand gold, his monthly income would be at least two hundred and fifty gold. What does this mean?
What is the name of investment amplification? The more you invest, the greater your returns will be."
"Hahaha, I didn't expect that this Su Ren is really a good businessman. It is not difficult to become rich in business and rival the country!" He waved his hand and stopped Wu Ban from continuing to speak: "No need to talk more, I will enter the palace right away and will
I have brought your words with you, and whether you want to stay for a month or leave after a few days is entirely up to my father."
There were no weeds in the empty warehouse, and the place where the boxes were originally stacked now only left traces on the ground. A gust of wind came in through the back window, which stirred up the dust inside and made people cough. Everyone was waving and talking.
After exiting the warehouse, there is nothing interesting to see in the empty warehouse.
The person in charge of the warehouse had to lock the door. Huang Shisan joked: "There are no mice in here, so what does it matter whether it is locked or not?"
The janitor put his hand on the lock and looked at Su Ren helplessly. Su Ren smiled bitterly: "You can lock it if you want, but we will clean the inside tomorrow. There will be a lot of money that needs to be put away temporarily. If the wind comes in like this, it will
It’s not okay to be dusty.”
The gatekeeper quickly locked the door and nodded in agreement. This is Su Ren's treasury in Shouchun. It was specially dug when building Cuixiang Building. It is not very big and not very safe. Liu Jian brought it last time.
The three hundred gold, except for the money used to build Cuixiang Tower, was all put here. Now, Sang Yuji moved them all away, leaving only an empty warehouse.
Returning to the other courtyard, Su Ren did not go back to the house, but went straight to the yew tree. Because the crown of the tree was so big, the lowest branches drooped down. Big men like Huang Shisan and Man Niu had to bend down when they passed by.
Moreover, it was not safe to place those branches on the roof. Years ago, Su Ren asked Huang Shisan to find someone to prune them, which made the yard brighter.
A ray of sunlight passed through the gap between the branches and hit Su Ren's face. It was warm and comfortable. He closed his eyes, smelled the faint fragrance of tea, and lay on the chair to doze off. Su Ren spent some time like this almost every day.
Time, even half an hour is fine, as long as I don't enjoy it that much that day, my whole body will feel uncomfortable.
Han Qing poured a glass of water for Su Ren: "Sir, will there be nothing wrong with the five hundred gold being taken away by Shopkeeper Cui?"
"What can happen?" Su Ren did not open his eyes and continued to feel the warmth of the sun.
"If the King of Huainan has to wait another month, we will have no money at all. How will we explain to Liu Hong then?"
Su Ren turned around and let his back bask in the sun for a while: "At worst, it's just a run away. One hundred golds for five hundred golds. What a bargain."
"Ah! Run?"
"Don't worry, it's okay. Aren't there still people lining up outside the door? Just call a few people in and you can collect a hundred gold. Is it possible that Liu An can keep dragging it on?"
Han Qing still wanted to speak, but thought about it and stopped. He couldn't grasp Su Ren's thinking, so he didn't understand what Su Ren was going to do. Although he felt something was wrong in his heart, he just couldn't make sense. He sighed, and Han Qing shook his head.
: "I really don't understand what you want to do, sir? But I can clearly see the result. When you leave, the rich people in Huainan will disappear."
"Hahaha!" Su Ren laughed: "Finally, someone who understands is going to call in the richest people outside. I have something to say."
Su Ren finally relented, and the month of waiting was finally not in vain. When several of the largest wealthy households were invited into the other courtyard, their hearts were filled with joy. Sang Yuji drew dividends from Su Ren.
They had all heard about it. In just one month, after investing 500 gold, they earned back 100 gold. The 20% profit made them, businessmen who had been doing business all their lives, salivate.
The great communist pioneer Marx once said this famous saying in "Das Kapital": If capital has 50% profit, it will take desperate risks; if it has 100% profit, it will dare to trample all laws in the world.
, even at the risk of being hanged, if there is a 300% profit, it will ignore everything in the world, including things other than the law that limit all human desires.
Su Ren just gave these budding capitalists a sweetener. These people swarmed in like mosquitoes after seeing blood, groveling, and even shamelessly coming together, regardless of whether what they were facing was a trap or a pie. For this
Even though he was willing to risk his fortune by making a small profit, he still sharpened his head and dug in.
Su Ren used words like hehe, haha, um, etc. to dismiss those people without any meaning. Not only did he enthusiastically offer all his belongings, he also went home happily and waited for God to send them hot bird droppings.
Without using a stick of incense, Su Ren got two hundred gold from those people, and it was all in cash, without any written documents or promises.
Han Qing on the side was dumbfounded. He couldn't understand why these people believed in Su Ren so much. Could it be that Su Ren's reputation was better than that of the government and the court? After thinking about it, he felt no. It was naturally because of the generous rewards. Han Qing
Qing even thought that as long as Su Ren could give generous rewards to those who paid the money next month, the remaining people would rush in even if they died.
The vault that had just been emptied in the morning was filled with a lot of stuff in the evening. The janitor breathed a sigh of relief. He was looking after the vault. If there was nothing in the vault, it would mean he was unemployed. Fortunately, he was not kept waiting for a long time.
Otherwise, he would have no shame standing at the door of the empty vault.
During dinner in the evening, I received news from someone sent by Liu An. Liu An told Su Ren that because there were still some unresolved matters in Huainan, it would take another month before departure. He hoped Su Ren would understand and asked Su Ren to wait.
As soon as Liu An's people left, Sang Yuji came. This time he brought two carriages, and it seemed that he had a thousand gold. Needless to say, the money belonged to Liu Hong, and it was Liu Hong who was testing himself. As long as he passed the test this time
, Liu An and Liu Hong are likely to invest again, and it will be a lot.
Without talking to Sang Yuji, he asked someone to collect the money, gave him a receipt, and sent Sang Yuji away. As soon as Sang Yuji left, Cui Jiuming's fat face turned out from behind the screen and looked at him with a smile.
Su Ren said: "I seem to understand a little bit."
Su Ren also smiled: "Just understand. Just like last time, keep the interest that should be paid this month and take away the rest."
Cui Jiuming nodded: "Aren't you afraid of what to do if someone finds out? Is it so easy to deceive the money of princes and kings?"
"I had already arrived in Chang'an by then. With the emperor as my backstage, who should I be afraid of?"
"Okay, tell me, how much will you give to the emperor?"
"Hahaha..." Su Ren laughed and pointed at Cui Jiuming: "You still understand me and understand me best. If you don't drag the emperor into such a big matter, he won't be willing to take the blame. How much do you think is appropriate?"
"Half and half?" Cui Jiuming asked.
Su Ren shook his head: "I'm afraid half and half won't work. This benefit can't satisfy the emperor's desire. At least it's 70 to 30."
"Qisan? Oh, it's better to be an emperor. You can get the big head just by taking the blame. No wonder everyone wants to be an emperor."
"What? You want to rebel?"
Cui Jiuming waved his hands repeatedly: "You can't talk nonsense. I'm just a businessman. It doesn't matter what I want. How can I rebel?"
"That's right, you are so poor that all you have left is money!"
Cui Jiuming also laughed: "This sounds good, indeed I am so poor that all I have left is money."
The days go by like this. February is not a busy month. The weather in Shouchun has warmed up a lot and the temperature has risen very quickly. By mid-February, I can no longer wear heavy clothes. Yesterday I was sitting in the yard
Here, I also like to look for the sunlight cast through the gaps between the yew branches and leaves. Today I have to find a shady place to stay.
Shouchun's recovery speed is the same as the weather. It cools down quickly and heats up quickly. Those traders who had escaped from death have reappeared on the street, but many shops have changed owners.
Ma Hutong was originally a livestock distribution center, but this year there were no livestock sellers here. Instead, a lot of wine shops opened, and they imitated Cuixiang Tower and created many tricks. Su Ren went there when he was free.
I have tasted it twice in shops with elegant decorations. Apart from the style of the dishes and the strange names, the taste can be said to be completely different. However, even such a place is actually overcrowded. (To be continued)
