Hao Fenglou is such a person's temperament. He never tells him in advance every day. He always catches people off guard. If he had notified him before, the port would have been crowded.
This is not that Hao Fenglou doesn’t like fame, nor that he doesn’t like such joyful scenes, but that he is a little lazy and too lazy to socialize with others and make irrelevant greetings.
On this point, Hao Zheng and Hao Fenglou are different. Hao Zheng is best at dealing with others. If Lang San people think of Hao Fenglou in awe, then they respect Hao Zheng. Perhaps they have had experience as a businessman. Therefore, no matter what Hao Zheng does, he cares about other people's feelings. He does not like being arrogant and does not want to keep people from thousands of miles away. Even if someone comes to the door and some things cannot be helped, Hao Zheng will try his best to prevent the other party from feeling offended. Therefore, many people who come to ask for things are often sent out by Hao Zheng, most of them are not frowning, and even if the things are not done, they feel happy.
The father and son have completely different personalities, but they just complement each other. Therefore, if there is a plea or etiquette, the first thing that comes to mind is Hao Fenglou's father. As for things like charging ahead, Hao Fenglou will be remembered.
In response to this, Hao Fenglou also had obscure complaints in his letters to Hao Zheng. Naturally, this kind of complaint is just a joke. He has a specialty in his profession, is not good at dealing with him, has a strong self-esteem, and sometimes likes to speak with thorns, regardless of other people's feelings. What can I do?
After getting to the dock, the port is still prosperous. Countless feet are carrying goods through the dock, and carriages transporting goods in the distance are crowded with the intersection. This is always the case here, and it is always extremely congested. It is all loud.
Hao Fenglou had already gotten used to it. He took the guards and did not take a car or ride a horse. So he walked. Everyone was a little hungry. Hao Fenglou suggested: "There is a restaurant ahead. The roast duck tastes quite authentic. I haven't eaten it for a long time. Let's go there to take a break."
When everyone heard this, they cheered up.
When they arrived at the restaurant, the guys were familiar with each other. Although they had seen Hao Fenglou, they did not know Hao Fenglou's identity. They just saw a group of officers and soldiers coming in, and they didn't care. Since the war started, there were many officers and soldiers in military uniforms inside and outside Langshan City, some went out to buy, some were on vacation, and some came back to visit relatives on the front line, so the guy hurriedly welcomed them in.
Most of the people sitting in this restaurant are merchants from the sea trade. Everyone sits here. After eating some wine, merchants can be very knowledgeable. Now that they are drunk, they can't help chatting.
Hao Fenglou and others occupied several tables. Then they heard the merchants sitting next to him whispering, saying: "This railway bond is about to be sold on the day. One is a three-point profit, which is more stable than the previous war bonds, but the profit is stable. This time it is said that the bonds issued were 50 million taels, which is only the first batch. It is really shocking. This silver is really not worth the money."
Another said: "Brother, silver is not silver at all. A few years ago, one tael of silver could buy twenty chickens, how many can I buy now? Do you know how much silver in the year flows into our Langsan? Tell me that I have a wife and uncle who works in the Commercial Bureau. According to the most guaranteed statistics, there are hundreds of millions of silver in a year. From the West to Japan, North Korea, from India to Dashi, even if the inland trade is cut off, these countless gold and silver pour in like a flood. These gold and silver are transferred to various countries, importing countless wood, iron ore, and selling countless cloth and iron tools. How huge is the interest rate difference? Ten kilograms of pig iron are only one tael of silver, but if these ten kilograms of pig iron are forged and sold, it is the price of four taels of silver. If these stainless steel are made into muskets, the price is
It will be more than a few more times. Nowadays, everyone does not need gold and silver. Most of them are money issued by money banks. Although this money can be exchanged for sufficient gold and silver at any time, prices are still rising all the way. Chen Xue has a special currency research institute, which is what we study every day. This is called inflation. As long as we do a big deal, it is inevitable. So, I think, if you have enough money to buy bonds and store them in a money bank, it will eventually be depreciated every year. If you use it for a transaction, there is still a risk. You have to move some money to protect yourself. Only this bond has the lessons of war bonds, and you are safe and you are not afraid of losing money. When you reach the age limit, you can exchange it at any time, with interest and prevent depreciation. Now, everyone is discussing this matter. Many people have prepared the money and are just waiting for tomorrow to exchange it."
The person who spoke before was also hesitant: "To be honest, those who buy this bond are all coffins of their lives. Is this railway reliable?"
"Why is it unreliable? The imperial edict issued by the court now is that these two, Guangxi, Yunnan, Guizhou, and Sichuan are all fiefs, and there are many people there. What is the most lacking? It's not just the mutual exchange or not! In the past, the things from Lang Son depended on the horse team. They went back and forth, and I don't know how much they cost. After the railway was built, how many goods would be transported every day? How many workshops would be built there? With the road, there would be a lot of money to be recorded. No matter what, I will not lose. I will calculate it for you. If you use a cart, you have to hire a groom and guard. There will be two or three.
Personally, if you go to Sichuan, it will take a year and a half. These two or three people have to eat and drink along the way, stay in a restaurant, horses have to eat horse feed, and may even encounter risks. The freight alone is afraid that it will not be able to be paid without seventy or eighty taels of silver. But if there is a railway, it will be a cargo of hundreds of horses and cars. Even if one car is fifty taels of silver, everyone is willing to take the railway. This trip will be five or six thousand taels of silver. What is this? This is to pick up money! Therefore, it is expensive to build roads, but it is a huge profit. Are you still afraid that others will not pay it back?"
So the man nodded and felt that it made sense.
Hao Fenglou listened aside and couldn't help laughing.
In fact, in later generations, the so-called infrastructure construction basically did not make any profits and did not make high profits, so this became a difficult problem. However, in this era, without the competition of transportation tools such as cars and aircraft, railway transportation basically formed a monopoly. Even if the price is not expensive, not only do people not feel that they have lost money, but they also feel that they have taken advantage of it. Therefore, at present, this railway is indeed a huge profit.
What the Hao family has to do now is to attract money crazy and throw all this countless funds on the railway tracks. To be continued...
