Powerful Song Dynasty

Chapter 611 The right to know Hangzhou military affairs 56
"Why don't you talk, are you guilty?" Seeing Wang Xiu's silence, Wang Qingzhu was a little displeased. She is a shrewd businessman, and she naturally saw the huge potential of the clock. What a pity?I don't know what kind of convulsions Brother Xiu had in his head, but he gave it up to someone else, it's really hateful.

Well, although they are also members of the Wang family, there are dozens of generations, and those with weak blood ties are almost negligible.

It seems that Wang Qingzhu hasn't realized it yet. Wang Xiu thinks it should be explained clearly. He curled his lips and said, "Sister, there are many things that you can't dictate, and you can't even control your fate. How do you think Wangji Department Store is doing?"

"Very good, it's mostly your credit, but our family didn't act like a tyrant, at least according to your wishes, we took out quite a few." Wang Qingzhu didn't deny that there would be no Wang Ji without Wang Xiu. Department stores, let alone the development of department stores, but the Wang family has also invested a lot in this society. What the government can't do, they do in the name of the government.

"Aren't many people envious and flattered?" Wang Xiu asked rhetorically.

"It goes without saying that even this sect has tried every means to curry favor, let alone others." Wang Qingzhu felt complacent for a while, and she was very concerned about this feeling of being a savior.

But Wang Xiu had a toothache, and stared at Wang Qingzhu with gritted teeth, really didn't know what to say, if it was someone else, he would have been furious.

Seeing Wang Xiu's solemn expression, Wang Qingzhu definitely didn't seem to be joking, she knew her brother, and it's normal for siblings to laugh and laugh on weekdays, but it's absolutely unambiguous when it comes to business, it seems that Wang Xiu couldn't help but stop smiling when he talked about business, Weakly said: "What's the matter, Brother Xiu, is there something wrong?"

Wang Xiu shook her head, and sighed a long time: "Fortune is where misfortune rests, and misfortune is where blessings rest. Eldest sister, our family is too popular, which is part of the reason why I quit Waichao. Now that I am coming out again, department stores should also be suppressed." Overwhelmed, at least not too much in the limelight."

"What are you talking about, do you want to..." Wang Qingzhu's face was very ugly, what does it mean to be too much in the limelight, you are going to suppress it, isn't this just letting others have money?

"Sister, don't misunderstand me. I have no other intentions. Using the Wangjiayuanzong in Hangzhou is also for our family's consideration. You can't take in the whole world. Giving a little to others is equivalent to sharing the benefits. It is also good to contact a few powerful people." ally." Wang Xiu's meaning is very clear, it depends on how Wang Qingzhu chooses, it is impossible for him to control Wang Ji Department Store himself.

"Sister, take the table clock as an example. The table clock is very immature, and the profit margin is very large, but there is really no need to invest. You just need to take a small share. Now, under the name of Jingdong Metallurgical Firm, the department store has almost become a private company. The overlord of copper and iron attracts the attention of the world. It is second only to the imperial court in the banking industry, and the two items are enough for us to occupy the commanding heights. Just like white sugar and rock sugar back then, if you greed too much, you will eventually suffer from indigestion.”

Wang Qingzhu was a little unconvinced, but she was quite convinced by Wang Xiu, and she also understood what she said was the truth that things must go against each other, so she couldn't help hesitating and said: "Brother Xiu, don't scare me."

"What do I scare you for? The reality exists. The reason why a big tree attracts the wind should understand. Now, I am promoting reforms, which is bound to attract a lot of hostile eyes. They may have nothing to do with me, but they can deal with Wangji Department Store. Fight alone Needless to say, the result is clear, only by continuously creating vested interests and forming a stable class can we fight against those dirty villains, the eldest sister is not an ordinary person, and she should understand the reason."

"Don't worry, elder sister, bear with it. The benefit now is for greater achievements in the future. With this foundation, our family will always occupy the upper hand in the mature industry in the future. Ten of them earn seven points. Our family Earn three points."

Wang Qingzhu is very reluctant to give up, but years of experience have continuously shaped her. Wang Ji Department Store is very beautiful, only she knows the details very well.There is really no comparison between the department store and the Shen family accumulated by several generations, or even other families. Too fast development leads to a weak foundation, which leads to the slowdown of the expansion of Wangji department store, and there are even signs of weak succession. This has nothing to do with how much money It doesn't matter.

Seeing Wang Qingzhu's gloomy expression, Wang Xiu said with a smile, "Don't worry, elder sister, I have already made plans for our family's future."

"Oh, let's hear it." Wang Qingzhu finally regained some energy.

Wang Xiu was very troubled by Wang Qingzhu's question, but she couldn't help answering, so she said softly: "The future of the Wang family should not be shown in the eyes of others."

Wang Qingzhu was taken aback, she didn't understand what Wang Xiu said, but she faintly felt that she was pointing something, and slowly fell into deep thought.

"Okay, Eldest Sister is staying in Hangzhou during this time, and by the way, get to know some people from distant clans." Wang Xiu's eyes flickered, and he decided to promote the alliance of the Wang family and form a huge family power in the southeast.

The eighth year of Dazhong Jianyan and the second year of Wang Xiuzhi Hangzhou, the time is not too long.

However, the whole of Hangzhou, or even Liangzhe Road, is like a huge testing ground, full of new things, which is unbelievable in the eyes of many people, and many people devote themselves to it with enthusiasm, because everyone sees money. Scenery, and saw the future.Because most of Wang Xiu's actions benefited them. As long as you have the ability, you can earn a lot of money.

In Hangzhou, strips of cement slab roads are being laid, which are much cheaper than bluestone pavements, and there is still a lot of work left. Cement slab roads can be constructed on site, which is convenient and quick.

The huge potential of Liangzhe Road salt tea has been tapped to the fullest by merchants, and the government is waiting to collect taxes, regardless of specific affairs.

Of course, there are some people who have lost black income, so they naturally want to oppose it, but under the general trend of the mainstream of society, these groups in the middle and lower classes basically can't make much trouble, and they are suppressed by the local officials as soon as they raise their heads.Just a joke, I save time and effort by waiting to collect money, and it is a great political achievement. You little salt and tea officials dare to make a fuss, you simply don't know how to live or die.

Those who can personally experience it will naturally understand Wang Xiu's intentions. Salt tea monopoly profits are huge, but the price of official tea is high and the quality is poor. People buy private salt and private tea one after another, which affects the sales of salt tea.

Merchants naturally wanted to maximize their profits when they took over. Merchants on Liangzhe Road gradually formed salt and tea firms, which not only protected the market for local products, but also dumped them in large quantities to other places. The government not only charged rental fees, but also a large amount of taxes.

Whether it is the guards of the military states or the promotion of salt and tea, they all admire Wang Xiu. They sit and drink tea and wait to collect money. They no longer have to worry about hoarding a large amount of salt and tea. The work is added to help, and the little life is comfortable!The total income from salt and tea in the two Zhejiang roads is compared with the taxes and taxes on the Sixth Road in Shaanxi. You will be proud of yourself, so let’s all have fun!
