Chapter 242 Business Road! Business Road!

It was the end of July in a blink of an eye, and there were two more mistresses in the Grand Governor's Office, which made the Grand Governor's Office, which lacked popularity, more lively.

Originally, in addition to Fang Nan and Hu Xiaoya, there were also some maids, old ladies and guards living in the Grand Governor's Office, but due to the status gap, they did not dare to do anything to surpass their identities in the Grand Governor's Office, so that the Grand Governor's Office was quiet and terrifying on weekdays.

The big and small sisters joined, and the good sisters in the past are now even more inseparable. The three girls talk and laugh together, and the Grand Governor's Office is becoming lively.

Seeing that the Grand Governor married two more women, some old people breathed a sigh of relief. They were the people who were most concerned about the issue of the Grand Governor's offspring.

Before, the Grand Commander had only one woman around him, but he had no children. As the supreme ruler of the People's Army, they were most worried that the Grand Commander would have an accident and no heirs. The entire People's Army would be divided into pieces. The Ming army could not resist it. Everyone who had a relationship with the People's Army would die.

Now that there are more women around the Grand Governor, it may not take long for the Grand Governor to have children, which makes them feel a little relieved. Only when the Grand Governor's son is born will they be completely relieved.

The Qiao sisters married the Great Governor of the People's Army, and the Qiao family was also greatly affected. Since the Great Governor proposed to the Qiao family, some gentry and merchants in Guangzhou City tried to visit Qiao Rong and get in touch with each other. The status of the Great Governor's father-in-law is extraordinary. As long as they establish a relationship, some things will be convenient in the future.

Faced with outsiders' visits, Qiao Rong only made one choice and thanked the guests behind closed doors.

On the one hand, Qiao Rong, as a literati, was unwilling to contact merchants with a stinky appearance. On the other hand, Qiao Rong knew why the gentry merchants wanted to visit him. Qiao Rong did not want to cause trouble for his daughter, so she was unwilling to contact them.

Qiao Rong did not see guests, but these gentry merchants thought of a way to get a relationship with Qiao Rong. Qiao Rong was a literati and "sent" a lot of calligraphy. Soon these calligraphy became the targets of the gentry merchants and their value increased.

For the rich and gentry merchants, as long as the news of buying Qiao Rong's calligraphy at high prices is a success.

There are also gentry and businessmen with women of appropriate age in their family, wondering if they can marry their daughter and granddaughter to the Grand Governor, even if they are just concubines. When the Grand Governor becomes emperor, the concubine will be a concubine, and the family will flourish.

It can be said that nowadays, more and more people under the rule of the People's Army have believed that the People's Army resisted the Ming army and even overthrew the Ming court.

Even those literati who should have been loyal to the Ming court have been constantly turning to the People's Army. It was already the end of July. The People's Army's second imperial examination registration had already begun, and the number of applicants is expected to exceed the first imperial examination.

The merchants wanted to get in touch with the Grand Governor's father-in-law Qiao Rong, and big merchants like Jiang Ci, Xia Jingshan, and Liang Xin were no exception. However, for them, it would be best to get in touch with each other. If they couldn't get in touch with each other, it didn't matter. They were quickly understanding the rules set by the People's Army. For them, to a certain extent, the rules of the People's Army were better than those of the Ming court.

Everyone is fair in doing business, and no one is allowed to take action. If they are under the rule of the Ming court, even if they have a deep background, they will be killed by others if they say something wrong.

At this time, merchants such as Jiang Ci, Xia Jingshan, Liang Xin were more focused on the trade route leading to the Ming Dynasty ruling area.

In more than a month and a half, only a few of the many merchants have successfully opened up trade routes, including those leading to Guangxi, some leading to Fujian, some leading to Huguang, but only those leading to Jiangxi.

Li Chengliang was in charge of Jiangxi, and the Ming court gathered heavily in Jiangxi, and the Ming army that was captured were all elite, so naturally they were not so easily bribed by merchants.

Several trade routes were opened, and even found partners in the Ming Dynasty ruled region, and initially decided on the profit share of the glass business. The carriages for transporting glass had already been on the road.

The fastest move is Liang Xin's Liang's Chamber of Commerce. The first batch of glass is about to arrive in the jurisdiction of General Lin. This batch of glass beams is not much, only one thousand equal coins. As long as they are transported to the jurisdiction of General Lin without any damage, they are successfully taken over by their partners, Liang Xin will be able to get 10,000 taels of silver.

From the People's Army to the Ming Dynasty, the price of glass has increased tenfold.

However, not all of the 10,000 taels of silver belonged to Liang Xin. The profit was 100% in total. General Lin divided the shares 20% of them. Liang Xin took 30% of them in the "background" of the Ming Dynasty ruling region, and the People's Army collected taxes and divided the shares 20% of them, leaving only 30% of the profit left for Liang Xin.

Even if there is only 30% of the profit left, Liang Xin will make a lot of money. He invested 1,000 yuan in equal coins, and then came back to more than 3,000 taels of silver.

Glass may break a little during transportation, but as long as you are careful and take various anti-broken measures, the losses will be greatly reduced. Once or twice you can make back the cost of opening a trade route, and then you will make a lot of money.

The first time is just glass worth 1,000 equal coins. As long as the first time is successful, the Liang Chamber of Commerce will transport more glass and make more money.

Liang Xin was not worried that the Ming Dynasty would not consume so many glass mirrors and transparent glass. The most poor people in the world were, but there were also many rich people, especially those powerful people. They had let go of the transport of glass to the Ming Dynasty ruling area, and could not saturate the market for a few years.

The only thing that will affect the glass business is war, but according to the information collected by Liang Xin, neither the People's Army nor the Ming court will go to war within the next year.

In a year, even if a batch of glass is transported to the Ming Dynasty ruling region a month, only glass worth one thousand yuan is transported at a time, the Grain Chamber of Commerce can earn tens of thousands of taels of silver. If a glass worth more than three thousand yuan is transported at a time, the total income may exceed 100,000.

Liang Xin couldn't calm down just by thinking about such a terrifying return, and his mind was full of gold and silver.

Liang Xin understood the huge profits of the glass business, and Jiang Ci and Xia Jingshan also understood it, but the two of them sent people to try to buy Ming generals twice, but they failed. Not to mention the loss of thousands of taels of silver, but their confidants were caught by the Ming army, and they might have lost their lives until now.

Seeing that the first batch of glass of the Liang Chamber of Commerce had been transported away, Jiang Ci and Xia Jingshan were anxious and discussed with Liang Xin directly and borrowed Liang Xin's trade route at a preferential price.

It is better to say that it is borrowing Liang Xin’s trade route, but it is better to say that it is borrowing Liang Xin and General Lin’s relationship with “background”. Jiang Ci and Xia Jingshan want to transport glass through this trade route. Not only do they have to buy Liang Xin’s money, but they also have to share the profits of General Lin and General Lin and “background”.

If it is not given, it is certain that the glass will be blocked. If the glass is transported to General Lin’s jurisdiction, it will be detained directly and even the person will not be released.

We also have to buy money for Liang Xin. In this way, the profits of Jiang Ci and Xia Jingshan's glass business have dropped significantly. However, even if the profits have dropped significantly, it will make more money than ordinary businesses.

Here we borrow Liangxin’s trade route to conduct glass business, while Jiangci and Xia Jingshan will continue to try to open up a trade route. Only by controlling their own trade route can we make more money.
