[0631] Business opening
Zhao Liang asked how much silver coins there were in Ping'an ticket number. Hu Bugui pondered for a while and said that it was about 50 million taels. It seemed that the shopkeeper Hu was quite familiar with the business and kept the account book in his heart.
But these cash banks are scattered in various bill numbers, and it is impossible for them to be at the Linzi headquarters. After all, those semicolons must also be redeemed, and cash banks must be prepared.
There were more than 8 million taels of cash in the Ping'an Piaohao headquarters in Linzi. Zhao Liang asked Hu Bugui to take out five million taels and prepare to go to Tianzhu to do a big fight. He asked Hu Bugui to go to Linzi city and buy all the silk shops and tea in the tea shops.
Yesterday afternoon, Zhao Liang looked for Dajiuzhi in the temple of Huafa City. Although he had nothing, his understanding of Huafa City increased. China's silk and tea are extremely in short supply in India, and you can't even buy money. The price is very expensive, and the price has increased by at least ten times. The expensive coral gems in China are sold very cheaply in India, which is simply a bargain.
This situation is because there is a natural barrier between Tianzhu and China, that is, the Himalayas. If you want to cross the Himalayas, it is not something that ordinary people can do. It is necessary for a large business to call on a large team of people.
The silk and tea produced in China were sold at sky-high prices in Tianzhu, and the coral gems produced in Tianzhu were sold at sky-high prices in China. Zhao Liang took this into consideration and planned to make a vote. Of course, what is more important is to become a hit in Fahrenheit City and let all the upper nobles and monks know the existence of Ping An Trading Company. In this way, he can speak with weight and be able to hold a large-scale Buddhist gathering.
One hour later, the silk shops and tea shops in Linzi City were empty, causing many people who could not buy the goods to complain. The prices of silk and tea rose several times overnight, which are all later stories.
The culprits of the soaring price, Zhao Liang and Hu Bugui, had already arrived in the hall of Taizong. Five million taels of silver and the purchased silk and tea have been packed and placed in Zhao Liang's ring.
The ten people recruited by Huang Cheng were also in the hall. After hearing Zhao Liang's introduction, the ten people couldn't help looking at each other. It was obvious that they would let them go to a foreign country to do business. This was simply an insult to the cultivators.
Seeing that they all looked embarrassed, Zhao Liang naturally knew what they were thinking, so he enlightened, "Don't be upset, you feel that it seems to delay your practice, or that it is so embarrassing to do business. All the conditions for your practice are earned by doing business. The sects provide you with food and drink and for your practice. Do you need to work hard to retreat? Besides, if you complete this task successfully, there will be rewards, magic tools, elixirs, and spirit stones as you choose, and you will be indispensable."
When these people heard this, they became happy again and no longer had any resistance to this trip to India.
After everyone was cleaned up, Zhao Liang sacrificed the Xuan Lei Sword and shouted, "Big."
The Xuan Lei Sword directly turned into a giant sword about ten feet long. After everyone went up, they rose into the air and flew directly to Tianzhu. Three hours later, Zhao Liang and his group of more than a dozen people arrived in Tianzhu.
At this time, although it was already night, the weather was still extremely hot. Although these people were ready, they were all wearing cotton coats and cotton clothes, sweating profusely. People on the street looked at these ten people in surprise. I wonder if these ten people's minds were flooded. This was the rhythm of prickly heat being covered in hot weather.
Zhao Liang took them to the hall and booked several rooms. After ten people entered, they changed into shorts and shorts first. Then they felt much cooler. Zhao Liang arranged for them to have dinner. Ten people were also frustrated by the extremely spicy food of Tianzhu. After eating, they grinned and were in great pain.
This is, Anu finally came back. Zhao Liang asked Anu about her situation. Anu said dejectedly that she had nothing to gain in a day. She was a little girl's house and couldn't even enter the gate in many places, so how could she talk about finding a place?
Zhao Liang thought about it and didn't blame Anu. Everyone is snobbish. It would be strange if someone could take care of her as a penniless girl. It would be better for him and Hu Bugui to come forward tomorrow. He comforted Anu and sent her back to her room to rest.
The next morning, Zhao Liang took Hu Bugui to find a place. The two of them wandered around the center and prime locations of Fahrenheit City. Ping An Commercial Bank must choose a location in the downtown area.
The two finally bought an inn. Although this inn was in a prime location, it was disrepaired and poorly managed, and its business plummeted. Zhao Liang finally bought it for ten thousand taels of silver and transformed the inn into a business. It was relatively easy.
Zhao Liang asked Anu and Taizong ten people to leave the guest room and came here. The construction and renovation began in the afternoon, and it could not be delayed for a moment. Zhao Liang sent five people to different corners of Fahrenheit City to buy raw materials, and then went to the guild in Fahrenheit City to hire some skilled workers. After all, the ten people he brought were all cultivators, and they could be errand runners and thugs, and let them build houses. That was really embarrassing them.
As the saying goes, money can make the ghost push the mill. Zhao Liang's inn was transformed into a commercial shop in three days. This inn originally had two floors, the first floor was the lobby and ordinary guest rooms, and the second floor was the luxury guest rooms. Now the first floor was all opened and transformed into a commercial shop hall to operate ordinary goods. The second floor was converted into a VIP room, which was specially used to receive distinguished guests, sell or purchase some valuable items.
Three days later, Ping An Commercial Bank opened in Fahrenheit City. Fahrenheit City has a large population, and the opening of a commercial bank did not cause any ripples.
The next morning, Ping An Commercial Bank officially opened. There were two kinds of goods in the lobby on the first floor, one was exquisite silk and the other was fragrant tea. These were rare items. Many commercial banks in Fahrenheit City also operated these, but they were all small-scale fuss. Some commercial banks had three or five pieces of silk clothes, and they were all second-hand goods. Some commercial banks had three or five kilograms of tea, and some tea of average quality. Zhao Liang brought the best silk and tea, and there were many varieties, which were dazzling and dazzling.
Zhao Liang sent ten people from Taizong to carry samples on the streets of the crowded city of Huafa City to promote the public. If someone wants to buy it, I'm sorry, if you don't sell it here, you will get Ping'an Trading Company to buy it. After a day of publicity, many people know the name of Ping'an Trading Company. There are endless people coming to Ping'an Trading Company to buy silk and tea. At night, a count was made, and the turnover of a day was less than 20,000 taels of silver.
The first day of his harvest was quite good. Zhao Liang was naturally very happy and really encouraged everyone to continue to work hard and strive for good results. He naturally did not take the 20,000 taels of silver, and the most important reputation of Ping An Commercial Bank was to be spread.
The next morning, Zhao Liang asked five people from the Foundation Establishment Period to purchase goods from various countries. What things to purchase? Zhao Liang made a list. Each person allocated 500,000 taels of silver. If the money was not spent, don’t come back. If the things were expensive, don’t come back. In short, this is a technical job. Five cultivators from the Foundation Establishment Period went out with a bitter face. Why do you feel that this task is more difficult than breaking through the Dan Chain Period?
Zhao Liang asked the remaining five Qi Refining Stages to go to various streets of Fahrenheit to hawk, and he and Hu Bugui greeted customers at the business bank.
However, there were too many customers, and the two of them were too busy at all. Hu Bugui complained that if he had known so many people, why wouldn't he let him come back from Linzi or Handan with some experienced people? A big boss and a big shopkeeper were like a third grandson, so busy that he was so busy that he was hit on the back of his head.
While the two were greeting guests, seven or eight people rushed in from the door, one with their chests and backs exposed. It was already hot in India, and these people were all open, revealing a piece of black hair. They looked like they were not good at it.
The leader was tall and big, and shouted loudly, "Which one belongs to the shopkeeper."
Zhao Liang put down the business and replied, "I am, what's the matter with you?"
The man scolded, "Do you understand the rules? If you open a shop here, you must report to me, Mathur. Don't you want to be in trouble anymore."
When Zhao Liang heard this, he realized that these people were in a gangster and had come to collect protection fees. Seeing so many customers present, he couldn't get angry. With a calm attitude, he said, "I'm sorry, I forgot to respect you all, so I'll offer a price."
Zhao Liang did not learn in Qingcheng Academy in vain. He spoke very fluently in Sanskrit. He only listened to him and thought he was from India without looking at his skin color.
Seeing Zhao Liang doing this, Mathur was a little beyond his expectations. He proudly stretched out a finger in front of Zhao Liang and shook it.
Zhao Liang asked, "Ten taels."
Mathur shook his head.
Zhao Liang asked again, "One hundred taels."
Mathur still shook his head.
"One thousand taels."
Mathur nodded.
Zhao Liang couldn't help but look dark. He planned to give these people a hundred taels of silver, but he just sent them away. Unexpectedly, these people were so greedy. The lion said he would dare to ask for one thousand taels of silver. If he gave them this time, he would probably come to the door again in a few days. So Zhao Liang decided to teach these people a lesson.
"The money is behind, please follow me."
Mathur did not suspect any fraud and took his men to the backyard. After standing in the backyard, Zhao Liang turned his head and said, "The scenery here is nice and it is a good place to beat people."
Mathur asked with a frown, "Where is the silver."
"I want your mother's money."
Zhao Liang cursed and punched Mathur in the stomach. Mathur was so painful that he hunched over and vomited out all the food he had eaten in the morning.
Seeing that the boss suffered a loss, Mathur's subordinates rushed up with a strange cry. However, these people were not Zhao Liang's opponents. Zhao Liang knocked them all to the ground with one punch, and each of them was unconscious after a scream. This was Zhao Liang's subordinates' mercy. Otherwise, one punch could knock these people into scum and make them veritable scum.
