Chapter 345 The first two things

Although there were no money shops and banknotes in Shandong before, the Southeast was the first to be the world's trend. By the late Ming Dynasty, the products such as "money shops" and "city tickets" were actually not much different from those of Liu Peng's banknotes. When Xu Guangqi was in the capital, whenever he had large economic exchanges with Shanghai, he used exchange tickets from other places, rather than transporting money thousands of miles away.

However, most of the tickets are just exchange tools, rather than real alternative currencies. Not only does it have insufficient credit, it can only be circulated as bills on a very small scale, and it cannot be used to pay taxes to the government. Even so, tickets still play an important role in the Jiangnan economy. Without the support of tickets, many crucial trade routes and trade are in a stagnant state.

Therefore, Xu Guangqi frowned immediately. For the first time, he felt that this young master Liu had a big plan. Is it because he was planning to start a money shop and make money?

After all, it is very difficult to run a money shop in Shanghai. Not only do you have to get the government’s ticket, but you also have to buy a house and run a shop insurance policy, not to mention dealing with all the various schools of thought that you can come to the door to extort. There are many things to deal with, but the most important thing is that just starting to get the money shop is just the beginning. As long as you enter the Qianye Association Hall, you can truly enter the Shanghai Money Shop Industry.

No matter how magnificent the money shop is, no matter how much the capital is, no matter how high the credit is, if you cannot enter the Qianye Club Hall, it will be a piece of paper. The tickets issued cannot be deposited and redeemed in various money shops in Shanghai, and can only be collected from your own money shop. However, with the power of a money shop and the number of semicolons, it cannot meet the needs of customers. It can only be said that it is just a bucket of money.

Take Shanghai as an example. There are 30 Qianshang stores entering the Qianye Peer Club Hall. In addition to the general account, there are often one or two semicolons in Songjiang Prefecture. In total, there are about fifty Qianshang general accounts and semicolons. As long as you can enter the Qianye Peer Club Hall, the tickets issued can be deposited and exchanged in more than fifty Qianshang general accounts and exchanged in these 30 Qianshang general accounts and semicolons. Finally, the redeemed foreign bills will be taken to the Qianye Peer Club Hall every night to settle and close the accounts.

However, it is difficult to enter the Shanghai Qianye Association Hall. It has a long history, strong capital and outstanding credit. There are two or three hundred Qianshangs and Qiangucks in Shanghai. There are only more than 30 large Qianshangs and Qiangucks in the Qianye Association Hall. Most of the Qianshang shops and Qiangucks are squeezed out of the Shanghai Qianshang club and can only be exchanged for some silver and miscellaneous money.

If Liu Peng wants to make money by himself, then he will start a money shop and then enter the Qianye Peer Club with the relationship between Huangti Ren. That is the best choice.

But when Huang Tiren thought about it carefully, he felt that this was not the case.

This time when Liu Peng came to Shanghai, he brought a total of 1,500 danks of mountain silkworm cocoons. Although it was empty talk, as long as he went to the dock, he would know whether Liu Peng was talking about it was real or false. These 1,500 danks of mountain silkworm cocoons were real Wan Jin Yinuo, and it was purely a beautiful phantom blown from Liu Peng's mouth.

If Liu Peng really brought 1,500 dan of mountain silkworm cocoons, then just by 1,500 dan of mountain silkworm cocoons, it would be no problem for him to run a money shop in Shanghai to enter the Qianye Peer Association. After all, although the money shops entering the Qianye Peer Association are said to be "big money shops", the capital is actually extremely limited. The few money shops with the least cost even only a few hundred taels of capital. Even those with extremely strong "big money shops" are usually only two or three thousand taels of silver.

With the 1,500 burrs of mountain silkworm cocoon brought by Liu Peng, he has surpassed any money shop in the Qianye Association Hall above his capital. It can be said that he is the leader of the Shanghai Qianye Association. With such capital and strength, it is only a matter of time to enter the Qianye Association Hall. At most, it will take some trouble.

Huang Zhenglan has directly helped Xu Guangqi take over this matter: "You don't have to ask Xu Taishi for this matter. We just need to help you do it directly. Isn't it a money shop? We say hello to Songjiang Prefecture, Shanghai County, and Qianye Club Hall to ensure that Mr. Liu doesn't have to worry and effort, and things can be done smoothly."

"Yeah!" Liu Peng looked happy: "Then thank you two brothers. When it comes to this matter, it is easy to handle, and it is difficult to handle. After all, I am a foreigner and I am not familiar with the place in Shanghai. I don't know the rules of Shanghai, and I don't know how to start. Especially this time, although I brought a lot of money here, I bought some raw silk and went back to Shandong early, for fear that it would cost too much to buy land and open a store. Then I missed the time to collect silk and did not know how to explain to my next company!"

Xu Guangqi felt that he had found Liu Peng's flaws all at once, so he immediately asked, "Young Master Liu sent the mountain silkworm cocoons to Shanghai, why did you have to pick up the raw silk again?"

Speaking of which, what Liu Peng did seems to be very suspicious. He first sent 1,500 dan of mountain silkworm cocoons to Shanghai, and then collected a batch of raw silk to Shandong for sale. But the problem is that Shandong has a sericulture industry, and Shandong's own economic backwardness and consumption capacity is limited, so it is not a traditional sales area for raw silk in Jiangnan.

If Liu Peng wants to make a fortune in nothing, there will definitely be a lot of articles to do.

Liu Peng laughed: "I sent me a cocoon of mountains, but I wanted to buy the best lake silk! It also made Xu Taishi and his two brothers know that I have a private port in Huang County, Dengzhou Prefecture. I am the one who takes charge of everything and the business is very prosperous. Recently, I took on a big business. Someone from Liaodong asked me to send hundreds of dans of raw silk. At that time, I will use people from Liaodong to participate in Dongzhu and mink to pay the bill. The two brothers and Xu Taishi should also know how big the profit would be if this business is completed!"

I heard that Liu Peng had his own private port and his business was very prosperous. Both Xu Guangqi and Huang brothers understood where his capital was now spent. Nowadays, he only had a relationship with maritime merchants, so the mountains of gold and silver were naturally rolling in. Moreover, the raw silk business was originally a huge profit. When settlement, he used Liaodong ginseng, Dongzhu, and mink to settle the settlement. This was another huge profit in huge profits.

Xu Guangqi now also understood where Liu Peng's big moves came from. The young Master Liu in front of him was not only a local emperor in Dengzhou Prefecture, but also a sea owner. He could make a living everywhere. Not only did he have many business stores and many business routes under his command, but he even had many money shops. Naturally, his business was booming and his wealth was coming.

Huang Zhaolan even said directly: "No wonder Mr. Liu dared to make a fortune of one hundred thousand yuan. I have also heard from my father that Longkou's business is very prosperous. It used to be called Xiaohuang County, but now it is called Xiao Penglai. My father also told me that many people are saying that if Longkou continues to follow the current path, it may be Xiao Shanghai in the future! But this big business is to be fair to anyone from Liaodong? Is it possible to have such a big business..."

Speaking of this, Huang Zhaolan lowered his voice and said softly: "Can they be Nurhaci, the Jianzhou Jurchen?"

Although Nurhaci has not yet completely broken up with the Ming Dynasty, everyone can understand that if the current situation continues to develop, Nurhaci will be the number one enemy of the Ming Dynasty in the future, either Yesen or Altan Khan. If Liu Peng's business was done by the Jianzhou Jurchens, it would be reasonable.

Of course, they are far away from Jiangnan and have no sense of skin towards Nurhaci. Even if they know that Liu Peng is doing business with the Jianzhou Jurchens, at most they can only persuade Liu Peng to say a few words.

But Liu Peng shook his head and said, "To be honest, I still don't know who I am doing this big business with. It is the goods that a Liaodong businessman named Jin Baiwan asked me for. I was very anxious and gave a full deposit. I must have appointed the best lake silk. I told the boss Jin Baiwan that although we do not have the best silk in Shandong, the tussah silk in the world is the best in Shandong, which is mulberry silk, and there are also many in Shandong!"

Huang Zhenglan interrupted from the side and said, "It's the boss of Jin Baimian Jin? I heard from my father that this boss of Jin is naturally false, but he should be worth ten thousand taels of gold, even a hundred thousand taels of gold may not be missing... By the way!"

Huang Zhenglan remembered again: "I heard from my father that this Jin Baiwan is said to be the son-in-law of Master Li Chengliang and Master Li. No one dared to stop him from his goods when he traveled to Liaodong!"

Liu Peng's face was normal, but he looked down on Huang Tiren's evaluation. Now he can see clearly. Although Jin Baiwan usually says it very well, everyone doesn't think it is accurate to see whether he has a 10,000 taels of silver. Liu Peng thinks it should be, but he also thinks that although Jin Baiwan has so many assets, he definitely does not have much working capital.

Huang Tiren, Huang Laozhichu is indeed a white-faced scholar. He became a magistrate of Dengzhou. If it were others, he would have figured out Jin Baiwan's background. He still thinks Jin Baiwan will have a 100,000 taels of gold. However, this time he went to Shanghai to ask others for business, so he couldn't reveal this emotion.

"Yes, Jin Baiwan asked me to do this big business. Although I don't know who the real owner is, the business is huge and profitable. I can only help him go to Jiangnan to buy Hushi. Now he has brought all the money, and I just want to buy Hushi back as soon as possible!"

He was not afraid that the Huang brothers and Xu Guangqi would find Jin Baiwan to verify the matter. Songjiang Mansion was hundreds of miles away from Longkou. It was naturally very difficult to find Jin Baiwan to confront each other. And what if you find Jin Baiwan, what can you do if you don’t have any commercial secrets in your hands? Everyone has always regarded their true partners as the highest secrets within.
