    "Yes~"

    Hearing Liu Jin¡¯s words, Zhao Dahu also nodded quickly.

    In fact, Daming¡¯s glass sales have indeed stagnated, with very slow growth. This is because the price of glass products continues to fall.

    ??We are not fools, and gradually we can guess that this glass is actually worthless, so we don¡¯t take advantage of it like at the beginning and spend a lot of money to buy various glass products.

    ?This has become extremely important to open up overseas markets, and it will also be the focus of next year.

    Zhao Dahu finished his report, and soon, Sun Xin, the manager of Tianjin Shipyard, also stood up.

    "His Royal Highness, Mr. Liu~"

    "Our Tianjin Shipyard built a total of 1,500 ships throughout the year, including 200 large ships, 500 medium-sized ships, and 800 small ships. The total operating income was 65 million taels of silver and the net profit was 2,500 taels.  Ten thousand taels of silver~"

    Sun Xin clearly reported the situation of Tianjin Shipyard.

    The scale of Tianjin Shipyard is getting bigger and bigger now, and branch factories have been opened. There are more than 20,000 shipbuilding masters alone, plus shipbuilding apprentices, etc., the number of employees exceeds 100,000.

    Among the many industries under Liu Jin¡¯s command, Tianjin Shipyard is the one that Liu Jin attaches most importance to, because it is related to the key to whether Liu Jin can lead the huge empire of Ming Dynasty into the colonial era.

    The average salary of shipyard employees ranks first among many industries. Even the salary of employees at Beijing Glass Factory is not as high as the salary of employees at Tianjin Shipyard.

    Employees in Tianjin Shipyard, even the most ordinary employees, now earn dozens of taels of silver a year. As for the masters who can build ships, their income is even higher, and they also have welfare benefits, housing allocation and many other benefits.  .

    In terms of business, Liu Jin really spent a lot of money, a bit like a rich man.

    Shipbuilding is really a technical job, and talents are rare, and it takes time to cultivate slowly. This is why Liu Jin sells all kinds of ships at a very high price, because there must be enough profits to train these shipbuilders.  Masters, so that some people can concentrate on studying shipbuilding, researching various new shipbuilding technologies, etc.

    ¡°Not bad, not bad~¡±

    After hearing this, Zhu Houzhao nodded with satisfaction. He was another hen who earned more than 20 million taels of silver a year.

    "Sun Xin, you have done a good job, but next year, you still need to further expand your production capacity and build factories in the south. Ryukyu, Fujian, and Songjiang are all very good places. You need to expand your production capacity and build factories in the south.  Focus on innovation and cultivation of technology and talents.¡±

    After Liu Jin heard this, he thought about it and warned him.

    Liu Jin estimates that next year will be the year when great navigation breaks out. Now many people in the Beijing-Tianjin area are organizing to go to Huanghuangzhou to fish for gold next year. The major shipyards in Tianjin are receiving orders.

    Marine fishing industry, whaling industry, overseas trade industry, coupled with the upcoming overseas gold rush, all of these require ships. Ships are the foundation. Without ships, it is empty talk to go overseas.

    So we must build more ships so that more people can taste the sweetness of the ocean.

    Especially in the south, Liu Jin must let the big families, big businessmen, big gentry, etc. in the south also taste the sweetness of the ocean, and let them know that they can make more money as long as they follow him.

    As much as possible, these conservative and stubborn forces should be slowly transformed into emerging capital forces. Only in this way can the progress and development of Ming Dynasty be truly and quickly promoted.

    You must know that the richest people in the entire Ming Dynasty are in the south. If these southerners are not mobilized, the Ming Dynasty cannot be truly promoted.

    "Yes, I understand~"

    Sun Xin nodded repeatedly. The scale of Tianjin Shipyard is getting bigger and bigger, and more and more branches are opening. Next year, there are plans to open several branches at the same time, covering the coastal areas of Ming Dynasty to build more large ships.  come out.

    After Sun Xin finished his report, another person quickly stood up. This person was Li Jiye, the steward of Changlu Saltworks.

    "Your Highness, Mr. Liu~"

    ¡°Last year, Changlu Salt Farm achieved a total operating income of 22 million taels of silver and a net profit of 5.5 million taels of silver~¡±

    When he said this, Li Jiye's voice became quieter. The profit margin was indeed too low, only about twenty points. It was not comparable to the previous Jingcheng Glass Factory and Tianjin Shipyard.  No matter in terms of scale or profit."Why don't you make money from this salt?"

    Zhu Houzhao was slightly disbelieving after hearing this. Among the old concepts, salt was the most profitable. He didn¡¯t realize that the richest people in the Ming Dynasty were the salt merchants.

    Good guy, this Changlu Saltworks produces a huge amount of salt in a year, but it doesn¡¯t make any money. This is unbelievable.

    "Back to Your Highness, the main reason is that this year our Changlu Salt Farm and the salt merchants in the Jiangnan region have been engaged in a year-long price war in the northern region. The price of salt is now only more than ten yuan per catty. In addition, in our first year  If you invest in building a salt farm, you have to pay a salt tax of two million taels, so the profit is very low."

    Li Jiye thought for a while and replied.

    In fact, it cannot be said that salt is not profitable. Its profit is still very high. For more than ten yuan per pound of salt, Changlu Salt Farm is still very profitable. It is just that the competition for the market has caused the price of salt to drop too much, so there is no profit.  How much silver is it?

    Earning several million taels of silver a year seems like nothing compared with other industries, but if you make other comparisons, you will know that the Changlu Salt Farm is actually very profitable.

    "Salt is a necessity for people's lives. It doesn't matter if the price is lower. At worst, we won't make money, but we still have to let people eat cheap salt."

    Liu Jin didn't care. To be honest, he really didn't want to make any money from salt. He just didn't like the salt merchants. He also wanted to start a salted fish industry, so he came up with the salt drying method and this long-term business.  Lu Salt Field.

    "Yes, yes, I have long disliked those salt merchants. This year's price war has been successful. Next year, we will continue to strive to capture the entire southern market and kill all those salt merchants."

    "What kind of salt are they giving to the people, and they are so expensive? We will defeat them even if we don't make money."

    When Zhu Houzhao heard this, he immediately nodded his head, thinking that no matter what Liu Jin said, I just don¡¯t make money with this salt, so I don¡¯t want to kill those salt merchants.

    "Yes~"

    Li Jiye said quickly and respectfully.

    One after another, one manager after another stood up to report to Zhu Houzhao and Liu Jin on the situation of the year.

    Tianjin Real Estate, Tianjin Maritime Trade, Tianjin Port, Tianjin Cement Factory, Tianjin Maritime Academy, Jingcheng Textile Factory, Miyun Iron Works, Jingcheng Machinery Factory, Ryukyu City, Jingcheng Real Estate, etc. Liu Jin and Zhu Houzhao bought too many industries together.  .

    Every industry is a hen that lays golden eggs.

    Any one of them has a turnover of tens of millions of taels of silver and a profit of several million taels of silver. Some of them are profitable, such as Tianjin Cement Factory and Miyun Iron Works. Their annual profits can exceed tens of millions of taels of silver, which is very impressive.  of making money.

    ???????????????????????????????: The annual operating income of many industries combined is 300 million taels of silver, and the total net profit exceeds 100 million taels of silver.

    This is a very scary number!

    The economy that these industries can drive is even larger. You must know that any industry can be related to dozens of industries, and even more are interconnected. How many people can be driven to employment and how many people can be driven to make a fortune.

    Liu Jin, Zhu Houzhao, and Zhang Mao are the ones at the top who are popular and popular. The related industries, industries, etc. below can also follow suit. Finally, if they reach the bottom of the list of ordinary people, everyone can also follow and have good results.  jobs and income.

    This is also the reason why the entire Beijing-Tianjin region is developing extremely rapidly.

    Because all emerging industries are located in the Beijing-Tianjin area, the number of workers in major factories, workshops, etc. in the entire Beijing-Tianjin area is extremely large.

    The population in the capital has increased by more than two million. This is because the capital is under the emperor's feet and there are too many restrictions. On the Tianjin side, because there are fewer restrictions and there is a port, the population in Tianjin has increased even more.  huge.

    Tianjin, which was not very eye-catching in the past, now has a faint tendency to become the first city in the Ming Dynasty. The number of people gathered in Tianjin alone is almost five million, including Beizhili, Shandong, and Shanxi.  people are attracted.

    Even if the Ming Dynasty court is very Buddhist in terms of commercial tax collection, the tax revenue in the Beijing-Tianjin region has soared, becoming the most important source of tax revenue for the court, pushing the Jiangnan region into the second place.

    Many industries earned hundreds of millions of taels of silver a year, many of which were established with 50-50 investment by Zhu Houzhao and Liu Jin, and some with the help of Emperor Hongzhi, Zhang Mao, Xu Guangzuo, and Zhu Fu, but Liu Jin still  is an important shareholder.

    So after calculation, out of the net profit of hundreds of millions of taels of silver, almost more than 30 million taels of silver can be attributed to Liu Jin.

    Earning 30 million taels of silver a year is an extremely terrifying figure. Liu Jin¡¯s wealth can be described as being as rich as any country.

    But Liu Jin knew that this was not a good thing. In the feudal dynasty, it was not good to be too rich, so the emperor and the prince had to be richer than themselves, so that they would not worry about their own money.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)Earning 30 million taels of silver is an extremely terrifying figure.
