- Half a month later, at the office of the Egyptian Canal Trading Company in Port Said, Tong Yuan and Kansu II came here again, accompanied by reporters from many Ming newspapers such as Daming Daily and Daming Financial News.
They came here this time, of course, to see how much money the canal had collected in the past half month since it was opened.
The reason why Kansu II is concerned about this issue is because the revenue from the canal is related to the Egyptian treasury and whether Kansu II has funds to support his ambitions and support his expansion to the south and east.
As for Tong Yuan and reporters from many newspapers in the Ming Dynasty, the reason why they are concerned about this issue is because the income from this canal is related to the huge return on investment in the Ming Dynasty.
As the first stock in the Ming Dynasty, the Egyptian Canal Trading Company has a market value of up to 2 billion taels of silver. This is an extremely terrifying market value. You must know that the current revenue of the Ming Empire¡¯s treasury is only a billion taels of silver a year.
The Egyptian Canal Trading Company and the Ming Empire invested 20 million taels of silver. This was invested by investors with real money. If it cannot bring sufficient returns to investors, it is estimated that no one will participate in similar large-scale infrastructure projects in the future. .
Many investors in the Ming Dynasty are eagerly waiting for good news to come back from Egypt.
"His Majesty the King, Lord Tong~"
The operation and management of the Egyptian Canal are in the hands of the Egyptian Canal Trading Company. Egypt has the right to dividends, supervision and maintenance responsibilities. Therefore, the daily receivables of the Egyptian Canal are first collected by the Egyptian Canal Trading Company and unified every month. of dividends.
The Egyptian Canal was officially opened to navigation in the middle of last month. After all, it has come to the agreed day for dividends.
The person in charge of the Egyptian Canal Trading Company had been waiting early. When Kansu II, Tong Yuan and others arrived, he quickly came up with a list of the income for the past half month.
"Since the canal was opened, an average of about 75 ships have passed through it every day, and the average daily navigation fee collected is about 50,000 taels of silver. In the half month since it was opened, a total of about 750,000 taels of silver have been collected!"
¡°It is estimated that the monthly navigation fee income can reach 1.5 million silver, and the annual revenue can reach 18 million taels of silver.¡±
The person in charge of the Egyptian Canal Trading Company in Egypt reported to Kansu II and Tong Yuan the income of the Egyptian Canal in the past half month with an excited voice.
By just sitting and collecting freight, you can collect 1.5 million taels of silver in a month, and up to 18 million taels of silver in a year. This is a considerable income.
Converted into the monetary value of future generations, it is almost equivalent to a net income of 18 billion a year. Of course, 18 billion does not seem to be too conspicuous in future generations, and many large companies and enterprises can easily exceed it.
But in later generations, the economy and technology were very developed, and the population was also very large. Naturally, the scale was very large, and some behemoths could appear casually.
Now in the Ming Dynasty, the total population of the world may only be a few hundred million. This Egyptian canal can collect 18 million taels of silver a year, which is already a very large and considerable number.
"18 million taels of silver?"
"After all, we in Egypt can get 9 million taels of silver every year?"
"Haha, okay, okay~"
After Kansu II heard this, he couldn't help laughing happily. In this Egyptian canal alone, you don't have to sit on anything, just sit and collect money, you can get nine million taels of silver a year.
This is an extremely huge number. This time yu*ewenyu*an.com* Zhang Si
Except for the behemoth Ming Empire, whose annual treasury income exceeds one billion taels of silver, the annual income of other treasuries such as the Ottoman Empire, Persian Empire, and Spanish Empire is basically at the level of tens of millions of taels of silver. 强牺 yuewenyuan.com 读牺
The richest Spanish empire, the annual tax revenue is about 30 million taels of silver. The Ottoman Empire has made a lot of money in recent years by selling Europeans to the Ming Dynasty, but it is only tens of millions of taels of silver a year. .
As for the Persian Empire, it was very poor, with only a few million taels of silver income a year, and it looked ambitious.
Egypt, although it is located at the core of the transportation hub of Europe, Asia and Africa, most of Egypt is a desert area, with arable land only existing on both sides of the Nile Basin, capitalism has not sprouted, and colonialism cannot be established.
The annual income of the Egyptian treasury is very pitiful. Counting all kinds of physical objects, the annual tax income may not even be three million taels of silver.
Especially the feudal lords and nobles in the country do not need to pay taxes. Under their wanton annexation of land, the revenue of the Egyptian treasury has been declining year after year.
This is also a headache that Kansu II has always had. Without money, nothing can be done.
Now, the Egyptian canal is open, and you don¡¯t have to do anything. Just sit and collect money, and you can receive nine million taels of silver a year.
With such a huge amount of wealth hitting his head, Kansu II felt dizzy.
¡°Thinking about getting such a huge amount of income in a year, internal land annexation, external threats, etc., it¡¯s all nonsense.
"It's easy to do things if you have money. When the time comes, throw in a lot of money. What problem can't be solved?"
"Nine million taels of silver a year?"
"If we don't distribute it to the people of Ming Dynasty, how can we collect 18 million taels of silver a year?"
¡°You just sit and collect money, you don¡¯t have to do almost anything.¡±
When the Egyptian nobles and ministers who came with Kansu II for inspection heard this, they couldn't help but open their eyes wide.
¡°I had originally guessed that the canal would bring considerable economic income after its opening, but no one could have imagined that such a canal could bring such huge profits in a year.

Such huge wealth and money can make people dizzy.
How can the people who annex land, collect grain, and suppress their sufferings earn money so quickly? In this canal, just sit at both ends of the canal and collect money. I don¡¯t know how comfortable it is.
¡°Why didn¡¯t we think of digging this canal ourselves?¡±
"Why did the people of Ming Dynasty still have to dig this canal?"
"It's really cheap for the people of Ming Dynasty. They only invested 20 million taels of silver. From now on, they can sit back and share the huge wealth of 9 million taels of silver every year."
Many Egyptian ministers and nobles also had mixed feelings in their hearts. Looking at the huge wealth, their eyes turned red.
Such huge wealth has nothing to do with them.
Because all the money allocated to Egypt has to go into the Egyptian treasury, it is Kansu II who has the final say. Thinking about it again, it seems that the Ming Dynasty people did not do anything, they just took advantage of it, and will sit and divide the money in the future. Immediately some people felt that this was unfair.
"You can get nine million taels of silver a year!"
"This income far exceeds expectations, and the shares of Egypt Canal Trading Company will definitely rise sharply."
As for the Ming Dynasty people present, after hearing this number, all of them couldn't help but marvel.
¡° Sitting and collecting money, collecting nine million taels of silver a year, the share price of the Egyptian Canal Trading Company will definitely rise.
Although the initial investment of 20 million taels of silver was a huge investment, once the canal was dug, we would just sit back and collect the money.
You don¡¯t even need a few people, just send some people to Egypt, sit on both sides to collect the money, and transport the money back every year. The cost is almost zero, and such a huge and considerable benefit is achieved.
The key is that it can be collected every year from now on. As long as the Ming Empire is strong enough and as long as the Egyptians don't tear up the agreement, the money can continue to be collected for ten, twenty, one hundred, and two hundred years.
Calculating this way, the value of the shares of the Egyptian Canal Trading Company is very large. The market value of 2 billion taels of silver is really not excessive.
Especially compared to the original investment, which only invested 20 million taels of silver, you can collect 9 million taels in one year. It takes almost two years to get your money back, and the rest is earned. 强牺 zhuiyo.com 读牺
Those who bought the original shares of the Egyptian Canal really made a lot of money. Not only did the value of the stock rise sharply, but it was definitely a pleasure to sit and collect money every year from now on.
The reporters of the newspaper quickly recorded the key data and then sent it back to Ming Dynasty as quickly as possible. I believe that as long as the news reaches Ming Dynasty, it will inevitably set off an investment boom. This time z hui yo .co m Zhang Si
By then, the construction of canals, roads, railways, bridges, ports, etc. will become smoother, and investors will be more willing to invest in them.
With the opening of the Egyptian Canal, the news that it is expected that 18 million taels of silver can be collected in one sitting throughout the year also began to spread rapidly. Zhida org.com Zhixiao
