Chapter 607
Xiao Yu said that he was not worried about the affairs of the Ministry of Works. The affairs of the Ministry of Works will definitely be solved. He was worried that after Changsun Wuji fell, how would the situation of the court change next?
"How did you change? Haha, no one knows. I know that you support the King of Wu, but can the King of Wu really support it?" Liu Shi looked at Xiao Yu and asked. Liu Shi was also a member of Changsun Wuji, and his position was also very important.
"Why can't the King of Wu support it? The prince was also very outstanding at that time, but I still think that Your Majesty is even better. Now look at Your Majesty, is he a wise monarch?" Xiao Yu asked at Liu Yu.
After hearing this, Liu Shi said with a wry smile: "It's different. The King of Wu is different from His Majesty back then!"
"Are you afraid of the King of Wu taking revenge? I don't believe it. I believe that the King of Wu is not such a narrow-minded person. His surname is Li but not Yang!" Xiao Yu glanced at him and said confidently.
"But many ministers, especially military generals, are very opposed to it." Liu Yu still persuaded Xiao Yu and started talking.
"The military generals are very old. Do you think they will persist so much in the younger generation? In addition, will the King of Wu plot among the younger generation of military generals?" Xiao Yu continued to look at Liu Yu and asked back.
"But Duke Hu is still very young!" Liu Wei also replied,
Xiao Yu stopped talking when he heard this. Of course, Xiao Yu knew Qin Huaidao's status among military generals. It can be said that except for the old generation of military generals, Qin Huaidao was respected among the younger generation.
"If you say you don't accept Qin Huaidao, the generals will not support the King of Wu. If you want to support the King of Wu, I think it will be futile at that time, and it may even put yourself in a state of endless disaster. Please consider it clearly!" Liu Xu looked at Xiao Yu and asked.
"When I supported Your Majesty, they also persuaded me like this." Xiao Yu sat there and said.
"It's different. His Majesty had an army and a general supported him. Now, King of Wu, do you think that general supports him?" Liu Yu said with a wry smile again, Xiao Yu didn't say anything.
Liu Shi said again: "Besides, you know, Duke Zhao supports His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. If you support the King of Wu now, how can you feel at ease with Duke Zhao?"
"Support Your Highness the Crown Prince? Ha!" Xiao Yu sneered at this moment, Liu Yu didn't know what Xiao Yu meant.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince will let us go? Changsun Wuji, he just valued Your Highness the Crown Prince too much, otherwise he would not have been forced to do this!" Xiao Yu said sneered at this moment, and Liu Wei did not comment after hearing this.
The next morning, Xiao Yu went to the gate of the palace and dissuaded the merchants, hoping that they would not block the door. Xiao Yu said that he would solve this problem, but the merchants did not believe it at all, so they still surrounded Xiao Yu and asked for a solution.
At this moment, Qin Huaidao's carriage was already ready. Qin Huaidao asked someone to put on the carriage and loaded more than 4,000 kilograms of things on the carriage, so that they started running around the city outside Chang'an.
No matter what road it was, he had to try to walk. Qin Huaidao also rode his horse and immediately became very stable on the flat ground. He could also be pulled up on the muddy road. The family soldiers and Wuwei who were accompanying him were also very surprised to look at the walking carriage.
"Boping, there are too many things like this kind of carriage, and I don't think those horses seem to be that tired? Even if they encounter your stone, the carriage can be pushed over." Qin Hedao said to Qin Huaidao in surprise.
"Well, the personnel have chosen the same choice. Three days later, our transportation convoy will start transporting supplies!" Qin Huaidao said to Qin Hedao.
"Okay, but can there be business?" Qin Hedao said with some concern at Qin Huaidao.
"There must be business. Our carriages transport a lot of supplies and are not expensive, which can help them save money. Merchants are not stupid. Even if they can save a penny, as long as they can arrive within the specified time, they will choose us!" Qin Huaidao said with a smile.
In the next three days, more than 80 carriages were built on Qin Huaidao, and the freight station was opened. Qin Huaidao also asked to post an announcement before.
For example, from Chang'an City to Luoyang, the largest box is only 3 cents, which is quite cheap. Qin Huaidao's carriage can hold at most 50 such large boxes. After one trip, it will cost 150 cents. Apart from the people eating and chewing horses, the remaining one can be about 100 cents, which is not the cost of the carriage, etc.
The freight station just opened, and merchants came to see it. They all knew that this freight station was opened by Qin Huaidao. The merchants trusted Qin Huaidao and Qin Huaidao did business, so many merchants asked Qin Huaidao to transport materials.
On this day, 20 cars were sent out from Chang'an, and the farthest one was to Shouzhou, one car,
However, along the way, the freight stations on Qinhuai Road also had supplies to carry to Shouzhou, and the carriages on Qinhuai Road are still being produced one after another. Those carriages are set off from Chang'an City, and they will still have to return to Chang'an at that time.
Chang'an City can be said to be one of the distribution centers of the entire Tang Dynasty's materials, so the cargo throughput is very large.
The next day, another 40 trucks of supplies needed to be sent out. Next, more and more every day, Qin Huaidao's cargo station has a very good business.
Qin Hedao has resigned from his official position and is dedicated to helping Qin Huaidao do this. Qin Huaidao told Qin Hedao that the goods station will share profits every year, and Qin Hedao can also receive a salary of 5 jin per month.
Even when Qin Lidao and Qin Yidao were on vacation, they would come to transport supplies. It was not tiring to transport supplies here. There were restrictions on those alleys, and they could only hold up to 80 kilograms, and few could fill up to 80 kilograms.
It costs about 5 cents to carry here for a day, which is very good.
Many people in Chang'an City went to Qinhuai Road's freight station to move. They were temporary workers and settled on a daily basis, so the people were happy.
Even some Hu merchants now ask Qin Huaidao and others to help transport it to the border.
However, materials that need to be transported to the border need to be inspected to ensure that there are no items that are prohibited from being sold in the court.
As soon as Qin Huaidao's cargo station was opened, the civil servants knew it. They found out that the transportation fee collected in Chang'an City in the past two days was more than 50 guan a day, and it was just Chang'an.
They heard that after the carriages arrived in Luoyang, they unloaded the supplies and continued to load the supplies in Luoyang and transport them to other places.
The freight station in Qinfu was to open all over the Tang Dynasty. They were a little afraid to think about how much money this freight station could make.
The speed of making money was beyond Qin Huaidao's expectations. Now the merchants found that transporting was nearly half cheaper than the convoy they hired, so they handed it over to Qin Huaidao's convoy!
At noon that day, Qin Huaidao invited the children of military generals to go to the Qin Mansion Restaurant for dinner.
"Haha, I haven't been together for a long time!" After Yuchi Baolin and the others came in, they saw so many children of military generals and said happily.
"Well, there are two more tables here later, otherwise I can't sit down, so I won't go to other private rooms today. The main reason is that I have something to tell you!" Qin Huaidao said to them with a smile.
"Good thing?" Cheng Chusi asked with a smile as he looked at Qin Huaidao.
"Good thing!" Qin Huaidao nodded with a smile. When the children heard it, they all laughed.
Soon, everyone was here, but the food was not served yet.
"Everyone, calm down, I have something to say!" Qin Huaidao slapped, stood up, and signaled them to be quiet. When the soldiers of the generals heard Qin Huaidao's words, they all calmed down and looked up at Qin Huaidao.
"Brothers, life is better now? In the winery, a shareholding costs about 1,400 guan a year, right?" Qin Huaidao looked at them and asked, and all the generals laughed.
"Boping, but there is such a business?" Zhang Shenzheng smiled and looked at Qin Huaidao and asked. Now the children of the generals are rich in their pockets, so they all need to thank Qin Huaidao.
"Well, there is, do you know about Qin Mansion Freight Station?" Qin Huaidao asked them with a smile.
"I know, Boping, didn't you say you didn't make money?" Yuchi Baolin felt a little strange when she heard it. Qin Huaidao told them before that it might cost about 10,000 yuan a year.
"Yes, I had a wrong estimate before. I thought the business might be average. Who knew that in the past few days, the money received by Chang'an City was about 130 guan. The cost of throwing out the carriage and horses was probably 100 guan left.
This is just a place. In addition, yesterday, news came from Luoyang that Luoyang has made a profit of about 100 guan in the past few days. There is no news for other small cities yet.
I expect that the profit of the entire Tang Dynasty will not be less than 1,000 guan in a day, which means that in a year, there may be 360,000 guan in a row!" Qin Huaidao stood there, smiling and said to them.
"My God!" The children looked at Qin Huai in surprise when they heard this. After a year, the profit exceeded 360,000 guan, which was a bit beyond their imagination and had exceeded the profits of the winery.
"Really, true, true, false?" Cheng Chusi looked at Qin Huaidao in shock and asked.
"It probably won't be much different. Our carriages have a lot of transportation, and the price is half cheaper than their own transportation. Those merchants are asking us to transport supplies!" Qin Huaidao nodded and said to them.
"Then, that's amazing!" Yuchi Baolin also looked at Qin Huaidao in shock and said a little stutteringly.
"I used to think that it was a profit of 10,000 or 20,000 yuan, so I won't ask you to go, and I can't get a few dollars. Now, with such a high profit, I can't afford it if I take it alone.
