Chapter 1057: Rare talents, more than a year and a half

No matter in that era or this era, Wang Tong never thought that the candy was strange. The Jinyiwei small banner was far inferior to the powerful and wealthy people in the capital, but he could still afford it.

As he grew up and understood the economy of this era, Wang Tong knew what kind of cargo sugar was in this era. He transported sugar once from the Ming Dynasty to Japan, without mentioning the goods brought on the return journey, the profit could be more than four times, and the same multiples could be achieved when he went to Nanyang.

This is to collect sugar sugar from the sugar lane. If you grow sugar cane yourself, squeeze sugar by yourself, and transport it by yourself, the profit will be amazing...

Wang Tong also learned that there were also ships specially shipped sugar on the route from the Ming Dynasty to Europe. This route is tens of thousands of miles and the distance is long, and the time unit is almost calculated in years. The goods transported must be profitable, which shows what price can sugar be sold in Europe.

"Duke Duke, the most surprising thing about the white people coming to the Ming Dynasty was that even the poor people here knew the sweet taste. In the past, the men in our place divided the property and the beehives were listed as important property in the details. There is also a legend that when the sugarcane first arrived at the port, someone tasted it and immediately went to the church to confess. He was extremely happy by the sweetness and thought he had fallen."

The climate in Nanyang is actually very suitable for the growth of sugar sugar, but the natives are not even willing to farm, let alone plant sugarcane. The Han people are naturally experts. After the shopkeeper mentioned Wang Tong, Wang Tong naturally strongly supported him and immediately explained that no matter what he needed, he could talk to Songjiang.

This topic is not a private discussion, but a public discussion is called to the shopkeepers and managers of the Sanjiang system in Songjiang. Everyone is not talking nonsense, but valuable discussions can be raised here and will be commended.

Since we talked about it, we were all working together, but we talked about other things. Luzon is suitable for planting sugarcane, but after all, there is still limitation in manpower and cannot be fully invested in the planting industry. We have to draw personnel in ports and in the group training, we have to guard against the invasion of natives. But there is a better place in the north of Luzon.

There are many names in this place. One name, Wang Tong, has never heard of it, called "Chicken Cage." The other name, Wang Tong, is very familiar with it, called "Taiwan".

The big island in the east of Kew Zhejiang has not been fully opened. The people who really went to the Great Six are there, and the Wu Kingdom during the Three Kingdoms went to search for the population. After that, there was no contact.

In a smoky land, there are savages in the mountains, and there are many mountains. There are no ships to go there, of course no one is involved in the Nanyang area. Although the natives are also bastards, they are inhabited by humans and are relatively civilized.

But compared to Luzon, Taiwan also has its benefits. For example, there is no pressure from natives to invade, and there is no need to worry about the white people on the sea coming to kill. They can operate it calmly. Although there are pirates and fishermen who are occasionally stationed there to shelter the wind, they also know that there are several natural good ports there that can be used as the relay point and base of the Sanjiang fleet.

Taiwan's climate is most suitable for growing sugarcane, and other grain crops are not a problem to operate there, but the value is even greater than that of Luzon. After all, Taiwan is closer to Greater than that of Greater, and the transfer of materials is more convenient and faster.

…………………

After the shopkeeper named Wang Liuzhou made this suggestion, Wang Tong's expression did not move, but the personal guard behind him noticed that Wang Tong's hand clapped his hands. With Wang Tong's cultivation skills, he could not change his color before Mount Tai collapsed, but when he heard about Taiwan, he was a little unable to calm down.

In the current situation, Taiwan has little significance. Whether from a geographical or economic perspective, it is just a few good harbors and a huge manor. But for Wang Tong, he said too much and heard too much in his life, and was imprinted in his mind without realizing it and could not be erased easily.

It’s just that there are fluctuations in your heart, but you can’t do things on a whim.

"Now, we need to sell banknotes and cast gold and silver cakes. Luzon is still investing in the inland market. There are many places in our Sanjiang businesses that use money, and we also need to have a reserve. Taiwan has opened, not to mention anything else. In the past two years, large amounts of money must be thrown into the inland market. Luzon and Taiwan, although there are difficulties and eases, the nature is the same. Whoever comes first and whoever comes later must also consider it clearly."

Wang Tong said this in a deep voice. The shopkeepers and managers below were quite old and were as young as Wang Tong, but Wang Tong's calmness and overall view were far more stable than them. Of course, everyone was not surprised by this.

A suggestion procedure that allows Wang Tong to say such words has already shown that Wang Tong has approved it. The next question is to discuss whether it can be implemented and how it can be implemented. This is a strange word "feasibility." The shopkeeper who made the suggestion is inevitably rich.

Everyone first looked at Wang Liuzhou with envy, and then they each thought about it. The shopkeeper could say this, so naturally he considered the "feasibility".

"Mr., this little one has another idea. The news is gradually spreading. The little one is listening to many merchants traveling from north to south in the store. There are many places in Zhili, Zhejiang, Fujian and Guangdong. Many people sigh that they learned the news too late and could not catch this wealthy ship. They regretted it very much. But in Luzon, everyone has almost all the differences and there is no loophole for others to enter. Since everyone has this idea and wants to catch up with the colonial pioneering, it is better for the master to encircle Taiwan and let the people of all households move to the people, let them cultivate the fields and migrate the population there, and then raise the place first."

Wang Tong was stunned, then smiled and nodded:

"You'll talk about it, well said, Wang Liuzhou, I'll ask you again, there's no benefit, you have to invest money in advance, why should they do it?" (provided by Ziying Scorpio, a wing-spreading update group)

This is to say the details. Wang Liuzhou knew that he had already gained wealth, but how rich he was depends on whether his next step-by-step behavior was correct.

"Mr. Master is recruiting laborers in Kaiping, Songjiang. The merchants who transport people from Jiangbei have all obtained convenience from the Duke. There are various benefits in Songjiang. Now Master has Tianjin Wei, Songjiang Mansion, and Luzon. In our Sanjiang system, there are also many good goods that can be used on the sea. With these things in hand, we can earn less money in a short time, give them some benefits and convenience, and attract them to cultivate to Taiwanese transporters. We make less money now, and we will make a lot of money in the future."

The room was full of admiring eyes. Wang Liuzhou was in his early thirties and looked nothing surprising. He didn't think it was too rare to put forward this opinion. Maybe it was a big fortune, but if he said it one by one, it means he had planned it in advance.

This success is not a lucky chance, it means that this is indeed talented. Wang Tong sat in his seat and watched Wang Liuzhou standing up and kept nodding, and said slowly:

"How to operate and attract investment and attract investment, please come up with a detailed charter to do this. You can do it separately from the Taiwan Bureau. You can do the general office directly and report to us directly about Luzon and leave it to others to do it!"

The dozens of people in the house were slightly turbulent. They knew that this person would be rich but did not expect that he would be such a big prize. Not only did he take charge of a store alone, but he also reported directly to the Duke of Liao that this treatment is only at the top of the top position in the Sanjiang system, which is really enviable.

If you follow the Duke of Liao to work and be willing to endure hardships, you don’t have to worry about being buried. Everyone knows this, but in recent years, the rules have gradually been established, the stalls have become bigger and bigger, and the system has gradually become complete. Nowadays, everyone does not seek to make contributions in their work, but seeks no mistakes. However, Wang Liuzhou has given suggestions and has aroused everyone’s thoughts.

Such innovative rationalization suggestions are accidental, but in fact they are inevitable in Sanjiang's system. Wang Tong established this commercial system, and the shell was a traditional business store of this era, but it injected him with many new things, modern business philosophy, modern management system, etc.

In such an environment, shopkeepers and guys who are willing to study hard have accumulated a lot of experience on the one hand and received a lot of knowledge on the other hand. They will take the initiative to think about adaptation and improvement. Unlike other businesses in the Ming Dynasty, in the Sanjiang system, the truly capable heroes do not want to go out for independent exhibitions, but stay in this system. First, they understand that they can climb up, and second, they know that they have too many things to learn.

Not to mention others, Gu Zibin, the number one figure in the business system, likes to enjoy himself before meeting Wang Tong. After meeting Wang Tong, in addition to doing business every day, he also specially invited scholars and other scholars to sort out various documents, pondering the rules and regulations and various businesses of Sanjiang, and not daring to relax.

It is precisely because of these that people like Wang Liuzhou appeared and such suggestions were put forward. It is precisely because of this that Sanjiang Craftshop has been continuously making technological innovations one by one.

……………………………

"This Wang Liuzhou is a talented person, and it is hard for him to do business, and he can think of this and then say it."

After scattering over there, Wang Tong and Yang Sichen met to work as usual every day. They had to praise a few words, letting the powerful sea lords along the coast go. When the scale was almost the same, Wang Tong reached out to pick it up. At the moment, no one at sea can compete with the Sanjiang fleet.

This idea is not rare. It is not rare to say it to Yang Sichen, who is familiar with the art of power and strategy, but it is not easy to say it to a shopkeeper.

"It's a cone in the bag and stands out. I want to congratulate you on being a talent!"

Yang Sichen said with a smile, Wang Tong nodded as well. Seeing talents coming out of the bag, this was naturally great, but Wang Tong remembered something else and couldn't help but lowered his voice and said:

"Mr. Yang, we have a lot of people in this trunk and there are many such talents. Wang Liuzhou has arrived in front of me, and there are so many people who have not arrived. We need to establish a charter so that talented people can have the opportunity to use it."

"What the master said is that this is the long-term solution."

Speaking of this, Wang Tong's thoughts dispersed and he said:

"I can manage it, but I may not be able to manage it everywhere in such a big stall. The key is to have rules and set rules so that the people below can abide by it. However, with rules as rules, after all, people still need to take care of us. There are still a lot of things we have to do!"

"Mr.'s thoughts..."

Yang Sichen wanted to speak but stopped, but at the end he spoke:

"Mr. Master, the way of civil and military affairs is relaxed and relaxed. In this position, the master is rich and can't describe it. He still manages business every day and has no time left. Why bother to do this? He still needs to know how to rest!" If I was idle, I might be panicked. I'm busy now, not for the sake of my son and girl below to be more idle in the future."

The two of them had some disagreements in their conversation, but everyone understood the meaning and left.

The Taiwan Bureau and sugar are all started to handle the matter. These news is not the first-class secret. People outside know that, but they just want to open up land in Taiwan and plant sugar cane in Luzon to build sugar huts. There is nothing else involved. They are all business matters and are not afraid of others knowing it.

After knowing these two things, the ground in Jiangnan was immediately sensational. Naturally, the land reclamation can be mixed with great benefits. The family has enough money and the capital has enough backers to plan. However, this pioneering and reclamation requires time and capital. Many people are not very concerned about it. However, Luzon cane sugar is really a sensation. Sugar is a white sandy thing, and the profit is far more than salt. At that time, ships are shipped over and sold along the Yangtze River Canal. How much does it cost to make, I feel dizzy when I think about it.

The Duke of Liao was very capable. He could transport it from sea to Songjiang to settle here. He wanted to sell his wife everywhere and hoped to be deeply rooted in Jiangnan. These wealthy families understood this, so they had to go to Wang Tong to pay a deposit and say hello so that they would not even have the chance to drink soup. In June, the powerful and wealthy people in Jiangnan, the nobles of Nanjing City, and even the salt merchants in Lianghuai who were interested in doing business outside to make money, came to visit.

Thirty percent of people asked Taiwan, and 70 percent of people asked sugar. This matter was much more optimistic than when discussing it at that time. If you open Taiwan, these people can get a similar scale.

July is coming, which is also the hottest time of the year in Songjiang Prefecture. Wang Tong has become more leisurely here, and everything is on the right track.

News also came from Ningxia that the Huoluo Chijun invaders was hit hard, and more than 5,000 mouths were wiped out from top to bottom. Ningxia reported its merits to the court. This was also the first big victory after the imperial guards went to the border town. It was of great significance. Sun Xin made an indelible contribution, and Emperor Wanli also wanted to commend him well.

What is the truth of the matter? I have a private message to Wang Tong. Huo Luochi was destroyed by the armed forces of the Guihua City Merchant Group and several vassal tribes. The reason is not complicated. After several blows, the Huo Luochi tribe adapted to the new environment on the grassland and gradually became rich. He was not one of the merchant groups and border towns, so he would naturally be destroyed...

The rise and fall of a country with thousands of people is not a big deal for Wang Tong. How can he count the people with hundreds of thousands of people on the grassland and outside the pass? Why should he take it to heart?

Perhaps it was Yang Sichen's advice that day that played a role, or perhaps it was Wang Tong who wanted to change his life. He had a lot more time with his wives and concubines at home. When it came to this change, from Han Xia to Song Chanchan, the first reaction of several wives and concubines was not to be happy, but to be surprised and worried, afraid that something would happen outside, so that his men would live and avoid suspicion. This was also ridiculous. Later, he gradually got used to it and became happy.

Wang Xia tangled Wang Tong all day long, wanting to learn martial arts today, and wanting to fiddle with machinery and guns tomorrow, but he never wants to read books. Wang Zhong and Wang Lan were originally crying when they got close to each other, but now because of the familiarity, they are also close. When they see Wang Tong, they are tired of letting him hug him, and the whole family is happy.

In a large mansion like the Duke's Mansion, wives and concubines fight each other and have to unite to prevent foreign women from competing for favor. This is the norm for noble families. However, the Duke's Mansion of Liao is a little different. Song Chanchan arranged for someone to set up a domestic opera troupe in Qinhuai and Suzhou. Han Xia and others did not object, but instead supported it.

The domestic opera troupe is a woman from instrumental music to actors, and it is also required to be young. If such a team is put in, the women inside will be very likely to be taken over and become concubines of the main family. It is the most taboo to attract female relatives in the mansion. However, if the Duke of Liao is not worried about this, Wang Tong had this idea, and there would not be only five women in his family now.

Song Chanchan’s purpose of playing this family opera troupe was not just for enjoyment. It was quite similar to Shi Qi raising those young men in the temple.

This is a long way to say that the mansion of the Duke of Liao is quite large, and the family is very interesting to listen to music and opera in Taichung Pavilion and Taichung. However, it is true that Wang Tong really can't listen. For him, these entertainments are too boring, and it is better to work in the yamen.

But looking at his wives, concubines and children, everyone was very excited, and Wang Tong was not good at going to the yamen like this. He had to be patient and looked at it, which was really hard to bear.

So when Wang Tong heard someone report outside, he felt like he was having a general amnesty, so he quickly spoke to his wives and concubines and hurriedly walked out. He didn't notice that his wives and concubines were all looking at his back and shook their heads and laughing secretly. It was very happy that his actions of being impatient but accompanying his family were with him.
