Chapter 824 Run away for this money

As soon as she said this, Mrs. Lu's eyes flashed.

Then she laughed anxiously and said: "If you are sure to make a profit without losing any money, of course I want to do it!"

He also hurriedly apologized: "When my wife heard the words 'guaranteed profit, no compensation', she was so happy that she lost her etiquette."

Tang Shijin smiled and said it didn't matter.

Whether it was Mrs. Lu who was smart and guessed something, or whether it was Lu Kejin's instructions, it was more appropriate for her to speak than the two Mrs. Wang.

Tang Shijin then smiled and said: "Actually, this matter has been discussed twice in court. Although I am not in court, I heard that Mr. Wang raised it a few days ago and we have been arguing for a long time... Mrs. Wang, I don't know Mr. Wang.

Have I ever mentioned it to you?"

Mrs. Wang waved her hand and said with a smile: "My master, he never mentions a word to me about court affairs. He only talks about women and what they know."

Everyone laughed, obviously this was a common experience for everyone.

Tang Shijin also laughed and continued: "That's what happened. Nowadays, Jinzhou is fighting and Minzhou is building ships. Both of them are money-burning. Everyone knows that the late emperor's temperament is very generous, so

The national treasury has some liquidity problems."

What she said was so candid that everyone couldn't help but believe her even more, and everyone listened quietly.

Tang Shijin continued: "So I thought of a way to borrow money from you in the name of the Finance Pavilion, call it 'Treasury Bills', and give you interest based on the number of years."

Someone asked: "Give us interest?"

"Yes," Tang Shijin answered clearly: "I will give you interest. For example, the interest for three years is three points, for five years it is six cents, and for ten years it is twelve cents."

You know, the way today's money banks operate is completely opposite to that of modern banks. If you deposit money into a bank, the bank will charge you interest based on the length of time you deposit it.

Tang Shijin, on the other hand, is like a bank, giving you interest.

Tang Shijin paused for a moment, giving everyone some time to think about it, and then said slowly: "This is just a temporary emergency measure. Everyone has managed a dowry shop, and there will always be times when the turnover cannot be opened, so we just close the shop.

? Or transfer some money from the side for turnover? In fact, it is the same principle. "

After saying this, everyone understood and nodded.

Tang Shijin said: "But we are a country, and there is no other 'shop' that can be temporarily diverted. Money is used everywhere, and the turnover is difficult. If I cut off the money nearby, everyone's life will be difficult. Many people

Things have to stop. Fighting and opening up the sea is important, but daily operations are equally important. So I have always felt that it is better to increase revenue than to reduce expenditure. Money is earned, never saved."

The words are very simple, even people with no education can understand them, but they don't seem vulgar at all.

Tang Shijin continued: "Why do I say this is an emergency measure? Everyone knows that the Tatar barbarians have never been anything to be afraid of. The reason why they have not been able to destroy them is because they are very slippery and can steal.

They left in one wave and ran away very fast. Go after them. Just a few dozen people are not worth the effort for a few days. Don't go after them. They showed up again and they are very annoying... But now, Ling'er has gone to Yuzhou.

We have mobilized two to three thousand Jianghu people who are flying high and high. No matter how fast the Tatars run, can they escape these Jianghu people flying over eaves and walls?"

Everyone had heard about this and chimed in with a few words.

Tang Shijin continued: "To say the least, even these Jianghu people can't catch the Tatars, they are just barbarians. Should we keep fighting with them? Just go straight to Huanglong! So before the spring of next year, the Tatar issue must be resolved.

I'm not bragging that we can solve it. If you don't believe it, in March and April next year, the Tatars will not be destroyed, so you can come and embarrass me."

Naturally, everyone was joking and saying that we believed it, of course we did!

Tang Shijin said this just to "firm his belief."

He continued with a smile: "As for the Minzhou side, now Zhezhou, Minzhou, and Guangdong are all building ships and recruiting troops. You know, these lucky ships are very huge, with thousands of people on one ship.

People, even if you need a hundred ships to go to sea, two years will be enough. In fact, you only need thirty or fifty ships. It will take more than a year at most, and less than two years will be enough."

She smiled and sighed: "So, if I count it like this, everyone will understand, right? At most, in two years, all major items of money will stop, and other expenditures will not be any different from these days,"

When the "out" disappears and the "in" begins to surge, life will naturally go smoothly."

"Needless to say anything else, just think about it. The income of just two weaving departments in one season can be as much as what the late emperor made in a year, and then there are the maritime affairs. These are extremely profitable places... In comparison

, porcelain and cinnabar, that little money is nothing."

For these women, they have no idea how much money the weaving business makes, but they see porcelain and cinnabar, especially cinnabar, and they know it in their minds. These businesses, which in their eyes are very profitable, are actually in the

It was nothing in Tang Shijin's eyes, so they would have a clear idea of ​​it in an instant.

Most of these women live in the back house, and they don’t know much about the affairs of the country, and no one wants to tell them. But she broke it down and talked about it, and what she said was very clear and simple, so everyone listened.

Understood, they all nodded and listened with great interest.

Tang Shijin said: "So, just tell me, is my emergency measure necessary?"

In fact, all she said was "I can definitely afford it". In this way, she conveyed this concept to them subtly.

After all, they don't care about the question of "is it necessary?", politics and the like are used to persuade men.

In fact, what she said at this point was just an appetizer, but with her identity here, the married women, no matter what they thought in their hearts, they all said: "It should be."

Someone asked curiously: "It sounds reasonable, so why are you still making noise in the court?"

Tang Shijin pursed his lips and smiled.

Someone asked: "Why is the prince laughing?"

Tang Shijin smiled and said: "When you ask this, I want to say a few words... Everyone knows that I am just a businessman. To be honest, I really don't understand the ideas of these literati. There are several reasons why they are opposed.

One is because it is 'unprecedented', the other is because it is 'harmful to the national system', and the third is 'undermining the royal family's face'."

"So I often complain that Mr. Wang doesn't know how to quarrel. What's wrong with the lack of precedent? There was no Tang Shijin before, and without you, I...don't everything start from the first one? As for hindering the national system, there was a demon concubine who harmed the country.

, everyone is now united to fight the difficulties together, how can this harm the national system? As for the face of the royal family... Hehe, if the six ministries cannot allocate money for something, it will not harm the face of the royal family? It's just folding the arms in the sleeves. That's why I said

These literati really...can't figure it out."

She paused for a moment: "Anyway, I'm just a businessman. I thought, this thing is obviously a big bargain for you. How can you not get the bargain and still be good? You usually open a store, and you have to choose the store and the store.

You have to choose a shopkeeper, you have to choose a clerk, you have to settle accounts... How much can you make in a year with all this care? Aren't you still losing money? And if you give us the money, I will ask you, in this world, there are still

Are you a more reassuring creditor than the imperial court, the Finance Cabinet, and me, Tang Shijin? Do you think I can still run away for this little money?"
