"The investment of 50 million taels of silver is really a generous sum. It seems that all these old-school officials are very rich."
Liu Jin, who was in his hometown, received the relevant information as soon as possible.
"I also want to issue my own banknotes and silver coins. This is to seize the banknote issuance rights of the First Bank of Ming Dynasty. It has a good vision, but it is just asking for death."
"We need to find a way to focus on Huihai Bank and directly bleed all the conservative officials like them at once."
Liu Jin thought quickly in his mind, these old-school officials are now in power, and they are exerting great efforts in various fields.
There are a large number of newly established factories, firms, etc., which are constantly snatching the sales and business of many industries under their command. These people are really fearless.
Regardless of whether these industries are related to the emperor or the prince, when you see the meat, you are like a shark smelling the smell of blood. You seem crazy and unscrupulous.
In the oil field, everyone competes fairly. In the competition in oil fields, the one with the highest price wins. Even Daming Petroleum Company has always abided by this market rule. Even though it is the current giant in the oil field, even It can be regarded as having formed a monopoly advantage.
But he didn¡¯t rely on his size to overwhelm others. He paid every penny he needed, and everyone was happy to cooperate with Daming Petroleum Company.
¡°When many oil exploration teams discover oil, the first thing they think of is to sell it to Daming Oil Company, because Daming Oil Company is fair, honest and guaranteed.
However, Rushang Petroleum, which was newly established in recent months, is overwhelming others. Relying on the power held by the shareholders behind it, it often buys and sells shamelessly, which makes the oil exploration team miserable. .
The oil fields they worked so hard to explore were thought to be sold at a good price, but in the end, they used various means to force them to sell them to Confucian Merchant Oil. The price was very low, and even repayment was a problem. There is no profit.
The actions of Confucian merchants and oil companies are only a small aspect of these conservative officials. Now that they have power, they are competing for interests in almost every field.
As latecomers, they often resort to unscrupulous means to seize benefits. Using power for personal gain and using power to oppress others are their most common methods.
The price of raw materials is deliberately kept low for you, and you are not allowed to sell it to others. You can only sell it to them. They can often make a fortune just by passing it.
The major ocean trading houses are also forced to sell products from their factories first, otherwise all kinds of troubles will come to your door and make you uneasy.
Sometimes they even resort to force. What should I do if I don¡¯t have a factory or a business?
Directly rob other people's factories and businesses, and use various methods to make it impossible for you to continue, so you can only sell them to them at a low price.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? There was a lot of anger and turmoil, and the originally good business environment started to become chaotic because of these people¡¯s frustration.
In the past, everyone relied on their ability to make a living. Whoever had lower costs, better quality, and lower prices would naturally sell better and do better business. Now everyone is in danger, especially some small factories, small businesses, and small workshops. , you have to worry about whether you are being targeted or taken over by someone.
The days are much sadder than before.
Liu Jin knows all these things clearly.
"snort!"
¡°The tricks played by these old-school officials have not changed at all from before.¡±
"It was the same in the past. By holding great power, power colluded with businessmen to form official businessmen, who specialized in this kind of monopoly business."
"Grain, cloth, and salt are the representatives. A small piece of salt can make these people become rich in the world."
"The emperor's court is poor, and the people are also poor. Only salt merchants and grain merchants like them are rich."
"If Ming Dynasty really allows them to continue playing like this, what progress can this technology make? What hope does this society have?"
Liu Jin's face was not good-looking. These people still continued the old routine of salt merchants and grain merchants. They had power in their hands and relied on it to make profits for themselves. The way they made a fortune was not by abiding by market rules, but by Rely on power to form a monopoly and rely on monopoly to obtain huge profits.
The final result is to return to the previous situation, where the emperor and the court are poor, the common people endure high prices for food and salt, and are extremely poor, and they are the ones who are rich in the end.Going forward will require a lot of manpower and a lot of funds. "
Liang Ciguo said immediately after hearing this.
Opening a branch is not an easy task. A bank needs a facade, a majestic building, special decoration, a large number of manpower, etc. All of which require money.
"There is no need to worry about money and manpower. Behind Huihai Bank are the princes of the DPRK and China. Is there anything that cannot be solved?"
"The investment is huge now, but once it is put into operation, the benefits will be huge, and a steady stream of money will roll in like the water of the Yangtze River."
Liang Chu didn¡¯t care about this at all. He just wanted money and manpower, so why was he short of these?
We need to take a long-term view and see the huge role of banks. When we start doing this in the future, when money begets money, the money will not be used up
