Chapter 148 New Tricks!
"Your father and I are planning to see King Youzhou!" the caravan leader said seriously.
"Didn't you say before that the king of Youzhou can't hold back the snake, and it won't last long?" His son asked puzzled.
"One moment, another moment. Now it seems that the King of Youzhou may have the last laugh."
"Extra! Extra! Youzhou is holding an ice sculpture festival! Attracting investment! A branch of Datang Supermarket is under construction in Youzhou! Extra! Extra!" In the capital, the new newspaper of Datang Weekly was peddled by newsboys in the streets and alleys.
"Give me a newspaper!"
"I want one too!"
"Give me one!"
Passers-by heard this and rushed over to buy newspapers.
As these literate people read the Youzhou news published in the newspaper to the surrounding people, the people in Chang'an City were all amazed.
"Ice Sculpture Festival? Every family in the county will participate? How grand is this!"
"Datang Supermarket is going to open a branch in Youzhou? Tsk! The people of Youzhou are lucky. If the King of Youzhou hadn't gone to them, how could they have become the first county to open a branch of Datang Supermarket!" said this, At first glance, he is not a native of Chang'an City.
When I think that there is no Datang Shangchao in my hometown, but Youzhou will soon have one, I can't suppress the sour feeling.
"Have you heard? The new sweater from Youzhou has been delivered! This time it's a new style! I've saved money for two months, and I'm going to buy one this time!"
"I am coming too!"
Also more sought after, there is also the "special product" - woolen fabrics shipped from Youzhou.
In the hands of Youzhou people, the wool seems to be able to be woven into flowers. Every time the fabrics are delivered, there are new patterns!
In the palace, Li Shimin, Empress Changsun, and Princess Changle each received a gift.
Wu Wang Li Ke is no exception.
Looking at the letter, knowing that everything is fine for Qin Yang in Youzhou, Princess Changle sat by the window, stuck the letter to her heart, and couldn't help but smile with her lips bent.
At this time, Qin Yang was summoning a group of big businessmen.
These businessmen come from all over the world.
Although the status of the merchants at this time was low, Qin Yang's attitude towards them was very peaceful.
This made some of them more affirmed this decision.
When each introduced their identities, someone caught Qin Yang's attention.
"Your name is Pei Mingli?" Qin Yang asked a young man.
The other party bowed to Qin Yang: "Back to the king, the younger one is indeed called Pei Mingli."
Qin Yang nodded his head and let the young man who was a little bit surprised to sit down.
The people on the side didn't know why King Youzhou was suddenly curious about this young man's name.
Pei Mingli himself was a little uneasy.
Although he is keen in investing and has unique insights, the distance between the businessman and the prince is like a moat!
Even though the king of Youzhou in front of him was once the son of a merchant, but now his status is different, his identity is different, and some things are naturally different.
Hiding his uneasiness, he tried his best to look calm.
Then I heard the King of Youzhou say: "I called you here for no other reason, but for the branch of Datang Shangchao in Youzhou. I think, if you want to see me, you also want to get a share of this matter, right? "
Everyone really didn't expect that King Youzhou spoke so directly.
But in this way, it saves time.
Immediately, a businessman stood up and said: "My lord, we have indeed heard that you are going to build a second Datang Supermarket in Youzhou, and I would like to know if we can have the honor of becoming a shareholder, and if we can't, can we supply the Datang Supermarket? .”
The word "shareholding" is still a new word from Chang'an.
But because the explanation was very clear, everyone present knew what it meant.
Qin Yang smiled and said, "Since I invited you to come, I naturally have that intention."
Afterwards, let people distribute the booklets printed with their own requirements and conditions to those present one by one.
It was the first time these businessmen had seen someone act like this!
It's not sloppy!
Pei Mingli, who was sitting below, had glowing eyes and thought to himself: This is the one who can do great things!
No wonder King Neng of Youzhou became a prince with a different surname from the son of a merchant!
With this courage and this way of doing things, it is very efficient!
Pei Mingli got the brochure, flipped through it, and was even more amazed.
One by one, they are all listed clearly, and they are still plain words!
Businessmen, for their part, are mostly literate, but because they can't take the imperial examination, most of them don't read too esoteric articles.
This has been used to trick them in the past.
The aristocratic families even saw that they didn't even have a straight eye.
Someone like King Youzhou who is approachable and considerate for them is simply one in a million!
Based on this alone, the people present already had a greater tendency.
After reading the brochure, which was very suitable and clearly a win-win situation, almost all of the people present agreed.
Only Pei Mingli, after the meeting adjourned, walked last, and told the servants of the palace that he asked to see Qin Yang.
"Pei Mingli wants to see me? Let him in." As soon as Qin Yang returned to the study, he heard the report and immediately agreed.
Wan Hou, who was studying ink in the study, couldn't help asking: "Master, who is this Pei Mingli? You seem to value him a little bit?"
If he didn't value this businessman, even if he allowed to see him, Qin Yang would not let people come to the study directly.
Qin Yang said lightly: "This person has some talent in business."
This is a Datang businessman whose name has been left behind by later generations!
According to "Taiping Guangji", a businessman named Pei Mingli made his fortune by recycling waste materials. Later, he bought the barren land of Jinguangmen at a low price, and then used a very creative way to turn the outer rubble yard Improved into an orchard.
This kind of vision and investment talent is something that many businessmen in this era do not have.
Maybe the other person just has the same name and surname, but Qin Yang feels that this Pei Mingli is probably him!
"The little one has seen the king." After a while, Pei Mingli was ushered in, and immediately knelt down and saluted Qin Yang.
Qin Yang asked him to get up.
As soon as Pei Mingli raised his eyes, he immediately saw the beautiful girl in white clothes standing aside, and hurriedly lowered his eyes, not daring to look any further.
Qin Yang asked him: "You see this king, is there anything else?"
Pei Mingli replied seriously: "Back to the king, I heard that how many streets here in the county city need to be remodeled? Turn them into commercial streets? The small ones are willing to contribute 50 taels!"
"Oh?" Qin Yang couldn't help asking him, "Then what do you want?"
"I hope I can own the regional lease rights in Datang Supermarket."
"You're still the first person who wanted to rent a place in Datang Shangchao." Qin Yang was really surprised now.
Other businessmen came here for the shares and the quota of suppliers, but this Pei Mingli was here for the lease right of Datang Shangchao?
What kind of leasehold right can be worth 50 taels of silver at once?
After thinking about it, Qin Yang understood.
Although this 50 taels is a lot, it is actually not a serious injury to a wealthy businessman.
The other party took out such a large sum of money, mainly for him.
This is not investing in a commercial street. This is investing in him!
