Glass in the manufacturing office!
Porcelain from the official kiln!
Silk woven in Suzhou!
These things are rare and rare in Ming Dynasty, let alone sold overseas.
Not to mention anything else, it is that kind of glass mirror. Word has spread in the palace that a three-inch square is worth one hundred taels of silver, a five-inch square is worth five hundred taels of silver, and a one-foot square is worth two thousand taels of silver. A tall full-length mirror costs ten thousand taels of silver!
This price is still within the Ming Dynasty. If it goes overseas, it will more than triple according to the usual practice. This time, Wang Shitou, the boss of the Royal Commercial Bank, took fifty carts of glass products out!
Although not all of the fifty carts are made of glass mirrors, other glassware is equally valuable. The most important ones are porcelain, silk, and tea. These items are hot commodities overseas!
Someone has estimated that this transaction can earn at least one million taels of silver without going to sea. Even if the Royal Commercial Bank has to pay a 50% tax and the remaining palace accounts for 80%, then each family will get tens of thousands of taels of silver!
This business is not something that can be completed in one trip. It is a long-term big business. It doesn¡¯t take more than a year. As long as the goods are shipped three times, each family will have an income of 30,000 to 40,000 taels of silver.
This does not include the nobles who have invested in the Royal Commercial Bank. You can get goods from the Royal Commercial Bank. Glass products are sold at 80% of the price. The 20% of the silver earned is easy and comfortable. If you put it to the left hand and the right hand, it is tens of thousands of silver. Even if you have to go up. The 30% tax is also a very profitable business!
Faced with such a good thing, the eyes of those nobles who have not invested in the shares are all staring red. They dare not take action from the court's major policies, but it is harmless to go to the palace to cry for poverty!
For a while, the ladies who met Mrs. Zheng were like crucian carp crossing a river. When they saw Mrs. Zheng, they didn't say a few words, and they started crying and saying that they couldn't survive now, and even the poor people in the family couldn't take the blame!
He even vaguely complained about the partiality of the current emperor, forgetting that they, the nobles who have contributed to the Ming Dynasty for generations, only stick to those families when good things happen, and they can't even drink soup!
Whenever this time comes, Concubine Zheng will angrily scold the little emperor, and then mysteriously take out a jade plaque and tell the ladies that this thing is called a membership plaque!
With this thing, you can buy any product from the Royal Merchant House at 80% of the price. Each membership card costs one hundred thousand taels of silver, and there is no bargaining, so you can buy it or not!
" A jade brand cost one hundred thousand taels of silver, and it did not occupy any shares in the Royal Commercial Bank. It could only get the benefit of getting the goods at 80% of the price. This was simply a blow to the bones, but Princess Zheng made three million taels of silver in just half a month.
Those nobles who are willing to be taken advantage of are not interested in the discount, but holding such a brand in their hands means they are on board the Little Emperor's big ship.
With this brand in hand, not only can you make money, but it is also equivalent to surrendering to the little emperor. From now on, everyone will be the little emperor's own people. What's the benefit? The little emperor will never forget himself!
Of course, Zhu Youxiao cannot forget them, because he knows very well how rich those nobles who cry about poverty are.
Historically, when Li Zicheng entered Beijing, it was said that he plundered more than 20 million taels of silver. When the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered Beijing, it was said that they plundered more than 30 million taels of silver. This added up to 50 to 60 million taels of silver!
But the Emperor Chongzhen in history was worried about a mere few hundred thousand taels of silver every day. Even if he hung himself on a coal mountain, he never thought that in the city of Beijing at his feet, there would be enough money to reverse the crisis of the Ming Dynasty. !
Chongzhen foolishly took advantage of two old enemies and ended up taking advantage of two old enemies. Zhu Youxiao would not do such a stupid thing. Although he could not rob it openly, he would not let so much money rot in the cellars of those noble families. !
If that was the case, Zhu Youxiao would be very distressed, so he naturally had to find a way to let those nobles who were so eager to twitch their fingers after picking their buttocks take out their money to let it cool, so as not to It's all moldy!
So Zhu Youxiao not only put 30 pieces of membership cards with Concubine Zheng, but also put 50 pieces of membership cards with Zhang Weixian, which was also one hundred thousand taels of silver, and asked Zhang Weixian to sell it!
Zhang Weixian was very happy when he got this job. As soon as he got home, he had people let the news out. What happened next made Zhang Weixian very satisfied, because almost in the blink of an eye, his house was filled with nobles!
Even when Zhang Weixian receives guests, he can no longer stay in the living room. Instead, the courtyard is filled with stools so that the nobles can sit in the courtyard. As for fragrant tea and snacks, don't even expect it. Zhang Weixian is not willing to waste it. That money!
In fact, it¡¯s not to blame Zhang Weixian for being stingy. The main reason is that these nobles who come to visit are all small fish who can¡¯t buy membership cards from Mrs. Zheng!
After all, there are hundreds of honorary stores in Beijing, and Princess Zheng only sold it for thirty yuan, and those were only of high grade enough to have a chance to buy them. Others were not of high enough grade to see Princess Zheng. Not much!
Zhang Weixian looked at these nobles who were staring at him eagerly, and he let out a bad breath, and said coldly: "When I asked you to buy the shares of Royal Trading Company, it was a sincere advice, but you guys are short-sighted. Seeing me, you are like a cat avoiding a mouse. Now that you know the benefits, they are all coming in a swarm. I really don¡¯t know what to say to you!"
Zhang Weixian has a high title and age, and is now the Minister of the Ministry of War, working in the military aircraft department. He can be said to be a true confidant of the young emperor, so his words are extremely rude, but no one dares to refute him!
However, some people still said: "Old Duke, although we people are short-sighted, we can't be blamed entirely. We have a big family to support, how can we dare to do something wrong? I came to you today with a shameful face, just because For the sake of future generations, please be merciful and give us a chance to serve His Majesty!"
After hearing this, everyone also agreed one after another, and the whole courtyard was in chaos for a while. Zhang Weixian looked at this group of nobles, and felt a little sad in his heart. Normally, people would point their chins to the sky, but now they were crying and shouting to go out. It¡¯s really hard for them to give away money!
"Alas!" Zhang Weixian sighed, waved his hand and said: "Although we are called nobles, we have some hardships that are not shared by outsiders. Today, His Majesty is a saint king no less than Taizu and Chengzu. We nobles It's better to be self-denial and serve the public good, so as not to bring trouble to His Majesty, and no one will be able to save you by then!"
Someone immediately greeted him and said, "Yes! Yes! Yes! The old Duke is right, we must strictly follow the teachings of the old Duke!"
Zhang Weixian looked at these guys who were still only focused on money, and couldn't help but shook his head in his heart, and said to himself: "These people are too short-sighted, and they will be thrown away sooner or later, so don't talk nonsense to them!"
So Zhang Weixian said bluntly: "Your Majesty gave me fifty membership cards, each worth one hundred thousand taels of silver. With this membership card, you can buy goods at the Royal Commercial Bank at 80% of the price. You should all know this, but now you are here. With so many people, it¡¯s really embarrassing for me to decide whether to sell to whom!¡±
The nobles also looked at each other, and sure enough, there were no less than sixty or seventy nobles of all sizes present, and people were coming one after another. Maybe it wouldn¡¯t be difficult for more than a hundred to come!
There are so many people who only have 50 membership cards, how to divide them?
Zhang Weixian didn¡¯t waste any time talking to them, and said loudly: ¡°Either you bid for these fifty membership cards, and whoever pays more money will get it, or you can buy them together, and everyone will make a fortune together, and no one will be left behind!¡±
Regarding Zhang Weixian¡¯s idea, it is natural that the big family likes to eat alone, and the small family hopes to be able to share the rain and dew. But now Zhang Weixian has the final say, and others can only look at Zhang Weixian helplessly even if they have ideas in their hearts!
