269 ??Win-win cooperation

When some old and antique scholars heard this, they had another idea, a heart-wrenching idea: Why did the emperor have such an idea? Business is a cheap business, and the emperor is going to do business in the great Ming Dynasty. Is this God going to step on?

In the history of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Zhengde also did similar things. However, he did not really do business, but asked the palace maids and eunuchs to pretend to be merchants in the palace, and he participated in the transaction.

Now, following the words of Emperor Chongzhen, this is to do business, how can this be done?

In just a short while, someone came to his senses. A civil servant with a beard and white hair came out and said, "Your Majesty, you must not! Your Majesty is the lord of a country, how can you compete with the people for profit..."

Emperor Chongzhen had long expected someone to advise, but what he didn't expect was that as soon as he finished speaking, someone jumped out.

To be honest, it is really impossible for the emperor to participate in business. After all, the emperor has unlimited power. If he does business, whoever can compete with him for business will be formulated by him. No matter how he does it, he will win!

This thought flashed through Emperor Chongzhen's mind, and immediately interrupted the old minister and said loudly: "What are you excited about? I haven't finished speaking yet!"

The minister who originally jumped out was mentally prepared and waited for the emperor to deny the advice, and then he advised him again. But unexpectedly, the emperor spoke and said such words, which made him open his mouth and stay there.

The chief assistant Wen Tiren is the loyal secretary of Emperor Chongzhen, and he followed the emperor as his leader. Seeing this, he immediately rebuked: "At such an old age, he is still so impulsive. After leaving, he will not be rude to the emperor after he finished speaking!"

The old minister couldn't help but blushed, and he felt that he had finished venting his passion. He had no choice but to sue the crime and return to the queue.

With such an example, other ministers, no matter what their ideas they had, did not dare to make a statement. They just waited for the emperor to finish their words first, and waited for other colleagues to jump out and troll the water first before talking.

Emperor Chongzhen saw that the bottom was quiet again, so he spoke again: "I plan to divide this Ming Dynasty Royal Cement Company into several shares, of which I invested in cement formula, accounting for 51% of the shares, and the other 49% of the shares, and sold them one by one, and those with the highest price will be paid. After that, the proceeds from selling cement, all those who hold the shares can also be paid dividends every year."

At this time, private business companies and others had long said that they were doing stocks, so the emperor's business method of the Ming Dynasty Royal Cement Company was basically understood by these people in the hall.

Especially those ministers with a more flexible mind, they realized that the Ming Dynasty Royal Cement Company would be a real gold mountain and could not be used for it. At this moment, the eyes of these ministers suddenly shone with greed. Even if Emperor Chongzhen on the imperial throne did not deliberately observe it, they could see it clearly.

But some ministers heard this, such as the one who had blushed just now. After hearing this, they felt that what they understood before was fine, and they were immediately full of fighting spirit and were ready to advise again. But after the first lesson, he was ready to wait.

After scanning the reaction below, Emperor Chongzhen announced again: "The 51% of the shares I have obtained will be divided into seven shares and will be owned by the Ministry of Works, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Revenue and the Inner Palace. This is called state-owned shares. The dividends obtained will be used for the Six Ministry and the Inner Palace."

When they heard this, the ministers below were immediately exploded. They were talking one by one and talking about their opinions to their colleagues around them. Even the old minister who was full of fighting spirit just now was no exception, completely forgot what they were going to do before.

The emperor's meaning is that cement gold and silver mines are divided together. Since this is the case, everyone will be happy and no one will be able to get along with the money!

Even some radical colleagues around the old minister pointed at his nose and whispered, "If you dare to object, you will be beaten to death, you, the immortal!

Seeing the faces of most of the ministers below, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but shake his head and immediately coughed.

When the ministers below heard that the emperor was moving again, they immediately shut up and bowed to the emperor, and they had to respect the more they wanted.

He heard Emperor Chongzhen be a little more serious and said seriously: "But cement is an important strategic material that concerns the national economy and people's livelihood, and is the material that the Ming Dynasty needs most in the future. Therefore, I decided that the price of cement must be controlled by the court, and only adhere to the principle of small profits but quick turnover."

Hearing this, the ministers below couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. How much money would they lose! But they were not fools, and soon realized that as long as there was a profit in this cement, it would still be a continuous stream of gold and silver.

And this price control made those well-mannered and polite ministers nod their heads secretly. It seemed that the emperor was really concerned about the people and was a good emperor!

In this way, the Ming Dynasty Royal Cement Company basically set a lower order. Emperor Chongzhen announced that three days later, the company's shares would be auctioned. The original shares were set at 100,000 shares. The reason for more was to allow as many people as possible to participate.

If the auction time is set to be longer and everyone in the Ming Dynasty knows that this is the case and then comes to the capital, the price per share will probably be higher. However, for some reason that Emperor Chongzhen could not say, he finally chose to start the sale of shares three days later.

This court meeting was the most special since the founding of the Ming Dynasty. No matter the size of the officials or the civil and military officials, everyone was happy to scatter. However, they seemed to be very busy, and as soon as they left the palace gate, they hurriedly left.

Emperor Chongzhen listened to Wang Chengen's gossip about the statements of those ministers, and couldn't help but secretly despise him. This is just the beginning. Three days later, I still have one trick to use, so you can just wait and have fun again!

As these officials rushed home, the news dispersed. Suddenly, all walks of life began to mobilize funds, and even a lot of materials were sold at a low price, just to gather as much funds as possible so that as many shares could be auctioned.

No one is a fool. The shares of this Ming Dynasty Royal Cement Company are basically a heirloom or a treasure pot. As long as the family has a share, no matter what the situation is, they will have confidence in their hearts. It can even be said that with this share in hand, it is better than the fields used by the heirlooms in the past.

"Come on, come on, don't miss it when you pass by. The ancestor's Bluish Blood Sword is only fifty taels of silver."

"The store is transferred and sold at a low price. If you want to buy it, come quickly. Don't miss it!"

"This guest official, come on, I'm here to get a discount now, half price, come and have fun!"
