Datang Happy Landlord

Chapter 845;
Chapter eight hundred and first; think about money like crazy

"...That's all right, take it easy, wait a little longer, let's talk and talk, it's not too late, and the delay counts."

"Cheng Chengcheng, listen to your father. Anyway, he has already left the main hall at this moment, and His Majesty can't see this side. It's not like he won't fight for a while."

While dealing with Li Yu, the two servants found a whip, but they didn't follow the agreed agreement. They delayed for a while, and raised their whips high while facing Li Yu who was talking behind their backs.

Before falling, it was stopped by a series of voices;

"Wait!"

"Stop!"

"Stop, both of you! Don't cause trouble!"

"Ok?"

"Qi Kai, give me Qi Kai! If you let me go down, the Empress must have spared me!"

"Yes, yes, little grandpa, please slow down, the servants are here to support you."

"I knew that the Empress would not be willing to really hit me, hahahaha! Let's go!"

Since Li Yu didn't have to be beaten, no one dared to disrespect Li Yu's status. Everyone kept their heads down and waited carefully and attentively, for fear that the lack of etiquette would cause dissatisfaction with the founding county magistrate.

Li Yu walked in front, and a group of maids followed closely behind him in a panic, for fear that if this extremely noble young man bumped into each other, he would have no way to explain to His Royal Highness the Queen. No one in the world knew this. The young master's body is most afraid of bumping and falling?
Walking to the entrance of the main hall of the Queen's bedroom, Li Yu put away his cynicism and lax discipline, and pretended to be serious;

"Your Majesty has been wronged, I really have been wronged to the extreme this time..."

"Alright, alright."

Li Shimin waved his hands not wanting to watch Li Yu's clumsy performance;
"Speak directly, why don't you deal with the five major stores this time? Give all the money to the court? Give it to me?"

Li Yu nodded quickly and began to dance happily again, even making gestures and explaining;

"That's right, Your Majesty, what I want this time is for the imperial court to complete everything, and leave everything to the imperial court to handle.

If the imperial court can figure it out, it’s okay if the minister doesn’t act. If the imperial court is a bit unfamiliar with these things...the minister can stand up and help. "

Li Shimin gave Li Yu a blank look, and picked up the tea bowl at hand;

"I know you won't give up this quick money-making business easily, so let's talk, and finish talking at once so that I don't have to ask questions one by one."

"Yes."

"Your Majesty is really powerful. You can see everything at a glance. Your respect for His Majesty is like a torrent of rivers, continuous and unstoppable, like the water of the Yellow River. I really..."

"Let's talk a few flattering words, and quickly explain the serious things clearly. I still have a lot of government affairs to deal with, and I don't have time to listen to your ramblings."

"Oh, yes, yes, I will say it now, I will say it now."

What flattery has Li Shimin never heard of?Why is Li Yu boasting that he is still leaning comfortably in the Taishi chair?
Because what Li Shimin hears are all high-level flattery, the kind of flattery, this is the first time Li Shimin has encountered the lowest-level flattery from the vegetable market like Li Yu, and what he said is that he has no time to listen to Li Yu Long-winded, in fact, Li Shimin's heart is very useful.

"Your Majesty, this is what I think. Not to mention the five major shopping malls created this time, the shopping malls in all places in the world will be managed by the imperial court in the future. Do you think this will work, Your Majesty?"

Li Shimin closed his eyes and said casually;
"What do you think? Can you say it's okay?"

"Um, minister... I think it's okay."

"Go on."

"only!"

Li Yu rubbed his hands excitedly, and was glared at by Empress Changsun, who had been staring at Li Yu, and winked again.

It seemed to be warning Li Yu, don't be shy, and take advantage of His Majesty's good mood to settle the matter.

Li Yu nodded to express his understanding, and then explained his point of view;
"Your Majesty, this idea was conceived by the minister. There are still many areas that need to be perfected, and we need to adjust our thinking in the next step of implementation. It is not difficult to make it, but the difficulty lies in how to make money for a long time in the future, and make money continuously. That's the point, don't you think so, Your Majesty?"

Li Shimin opened his eyes, sat up a little bit upright, and looked at his eldest son with a contemptuous expression on his face;
"Nonsense, do you need to gossip?"

"Just tell me what you think, what kind of ending do you want, and how to deal with it when you put a long line in the future and catch big fish? How many shares do you want?

Make it clear once and for all, don't play tricks in front of me, with your little thoughtfulness, when I was 15 years old, I could use my toes to deal with you clearly. "

"That's that, how can the minister's cleverness compare with your Majesty's? It's just like the light of a firefly. How can it compete with the bright moon?"

Seeing Li Yu's nonsense nonsense, Empress Changsun was not happy anymore;
"Stop talking nonsense, talk serious, don't give me a hippie smile, and look serious."

"Oh, I see, Ma'am."

"Your Majesty, this is what I think. Since it is the method that I came up with, I have to start well and end well. I can't come up with a beginning, just leave it alone and leave it alone. This is not in line with the rules of the old ancestors, and it is not right for your majesty." And the teachings that my empress taught me on weekdays.

Therefore, I feel that I should be responsible to the end, and in this management system, I will do the work..."

Li Shimin interrupted Li Yu's words without hesitation;
"Well, there are really no talents who are good at this imperial court. After all, it was you who proposed it. There are not many people in the world who understand your ideas. If you don't care, it is really difficult to proceed."

Li Yu was waiting for this sentence, and quickly climbed up the pole;

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will work for you for the rest of my life."

"Well, I can give you the place and conditions to use your fists and kicks, and meet all your requirements, so that you can let go of your body and fight."

"That's great Your Majesty, with your support, I will never do too badly. Your Majesty has also seen that there has never been any business that I have made that is not profitable?"

"It is precisely because of the various victories ahead that I will agree without hesitation. If someone else brings up this kind of matter, even if it is feasible, I will not listen to half a sentence."

What Li Shimin said was not nonsense, but the real reason why Li Shimin didn't say it was that Yuan Tiangang's words were born with great power to assist a generation of holy masters.

Yuan Tiangang's words at the beginning deeply touched Li Shimin's heart.

After all, this is the Tang Dynasty, and this is ancient times. The Yin-Yang and Five Elements and the mysterious Taoist knowledge still occupy the main thinking leading the ancient people.

Li Shimin deduced from these words that Li Yu would never rebel, because Yuan Tiangang was talking about assisting, not making himself king, so Li Shimin didn't care about Li Yu's powerful power and strength, and only beat him from time to time thing.

"What you said, even if I agree to support it, it can't be easily tossed about. According to the arrangements you described, the amount of money required is almost greater than all previous transactions. I guessed correctly, right?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, it does take a lot of money to achieve it, just like going fishing, you need the capital of a bait."

Li Shimin smiled strangely;
"Really? Then your bait capital is really big enough."

Li Yu was also a little embarrassed, but he had no choice but to respond to the Ninth Five Lord's inquiry;

"Your Majesty, you have to think this way. If the bait is so huge, then the fish caught later must be god farts. It's extraordinary!"

As soon as Li Yu finished speaking, the Changsun family next to him spat;
"Asshole, talk to His Majesty more politely, how can you look like those generals?"

"It's the empress, my son will remember."

"You don't need to pay attention to Guanyin's maidservant, what he said is not rough, he is not wrong, I have always been like this, the more you invest, the more rewards you will get.

I'm not a fool. I don't dislike investment. On the contrary, if you can get rewards without investment, it's a scam, and I never do it. "

"Okay, let's talk about your first step, five hypermarkets, how much money do you think you need to invest to get started?"

"The minister has to do the math."

Li Yu lowered his head and counted his fingers, and began to mutter;

"Land does not cost money, you can use the land and houses belonging to the imperial court in the neighborhood, if there is not enough space, you can demolish them, give some compensation to the houses of the people nearby, and then give them another house to live in.

This saves a lot of expenses, and the rest is to build a house. The old man with a white beard in the Ministry of Industry has a lot of capable people, so he doesn't have to worry about anything, just pay some wages, and then take care of the food.

Hmm... If you calculate it this way, thousands of craftsmen will come out to work, and if there is no cost of 300 million guan, I'm afraid it won't be able to stop..."

Faced with Li Yu's huge amount of 300 million guan, Empress Changsun swallowed and spit non-stop, and Li Shimin, who was empty of treasury because of the battle on the grassland, also twitched his eyebrows a few times involuntarily.

Li Yu in the middle of the main hall was still muttering about his little plans;

"The cost of materials is a bit expensive. First of all, the granite for the pavement has to be cut from the Qinling Mountains, then polished to a smooth surface, and then brought to Chang'an by a horse-drawn cart.
This fee is not a small expense, in addition, there are beams, columns, doors, windows and furniture, which have to be transported from Sichuan and the south, all of which must be of different colors of nanmu to be stylish, otherwise they will not be able to hold the place..."

Upon hearing that these things would be transported from various places, Empress Changsun couldn't help but picked up the tea bowl and kept drinking water.

Everyone in the world knows how expensive the transportation costs are. The tax and food in the south are transported every year at a thousand catties and become four hundred catties. There is no other reason, people eat horses chew.

Li Shimin's eyebrows twitched violently again.

"Oh, there are also red bricks and gray tiles, all of which have to be counted, and the later decoration style has to be carefully considered. In a word, high-end atmosphere and high-grade, no matter what level of guests come in, they will scare them Just live..."

"Well, since it is a shopping mall in Chang'an City, there is nothing to say. It must be the best in the world. Then one store will probably throw in thousands of guan, and if there are five stores, it will cost 7000 to [-] million guan. Expenses..."

"Pfft!"

Before Li Yu finished chanting, the tea from Empress Changsun's mouth sprayed all over the floor.

"Cough cough cough... ah cough cough..."

Li Shimin also picked up the tea bowl and drank the beef. After finishing the tea in one gulp, Li Shimin suppressed the shock in his heart, and tried to keep a calm smile, as if he had already guessed the specific usage amount;
"Your investment is indeed not small, so let me ask you, is the fish you catch later worth the investment of money?"

"Ah? Your Majesty, you said this, it's so worth it. Your Majesty, you think, it's a matter of once and for all.

The house we built will not collapse for at least 300 years, right?Not to mention too much, just calculate based on 50 years, one-time investment, 50 years of return, no need to throw a lot of money in the future, just collect money, it must be a good deal. "

"Well, if I don't argue with you, it's indeed a once-and-for-all deal, but if you only collect taxes...do I need to make such a fuss?"

"Of course not, tax is the foundation of the country, there is no doubt about it, it still has to be collected.

However, the management fee is also paid, which is also one of the ways to make money! "

"management fee?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, you can think of it as a merchant selling goods and renting a house."

"So how many sellers do you think can come in and rent a house?"

"I don't dare to say, but it will definitely exceed the number of businessmen in the eastern and western cities. After all, there are too many people who need opportunities to make a fortune. There are too many of them. If the smart people are bold and courageous enough, they will definitely come."

Li Shimin leaned forward a lot;
"More merchants than the east and west cities?"

"Your Majesty, if it is not as good as the number of merchants in the east and west cities, your Majesty can whip me!"

"I believe you. Then tell me how to calculate the rent, and how many years does it cost?"

"Year? What I want is to settle the bill on a monthly basis. You can collect it once a month. Of course, you can also pay for three months or a year at a time. In this way, those who pay the money must also give them a proper discount, that is, pay for one year in advance. The rent can be waived for one month or half a month, so that you can receive a lot of money in advance."

"Okay! I applaud this arrangement. It sounds very good for the court, but the monthly settlement has never been done before in the world. Can those businessmen accept it?"

"Your Majesty, don't worry, there are too many businessmen who are rushing up, and those who can't accept it, get out as soon as possible. Your Majesty does not lack his family or two."

"That's right, I don't lack one and a half. If you want to make money, you have to have courage and insight. Both are indispensable."

"What I'm thinking is, not only should the monthly payment be made, but also the size of the payment should be made?"

"Size? Do you want to settle according to the size of the place?"

"That's right, what I think is that a three-foot-three-inch square is a standard for charging money. For example, for every three-foot-three-inch square, the monthly rent is consistent."

"what?"

Li Shimin's hands in his cuffs were shaking, but he still pretended to be calm.

Empress Changsun was surprised;
"What? Oh my god, don't you have a mental disorder? Are you crazy about money?
How many goods can be placed in a place the size of the Eight Immortals table for customers to see?Are you good at charging a thousand dollars a month? "
