The Ming Dynasty’s Prodigal Son - Chapter 1836

[1836. Chapter 1746 Price but no market]

. There is an endless stream of people coming here.

So much so that Wang Jinyuan was alarmed.

After all, during the initial investigation, Wang Jinyuan determined that the Chenzhuang mansion was not easy to sell. Therefore, although he is slowly launching some mansions, he does not dare to launch too many, but he will test the waters with a few hundred units first.

But who would have thought… it would be so hot.

When these big families came in, they discovered that these mansions were actually ‘cheap’.

Of course, we went upstairs after all. Calculated, the area is not large, so… it is even more heroic.

Wang Jinyuan hurried over, and there was a crowd of people outside, but all the hundreds of units had been sold out.

“Big shopkeeper, what do you think we should do now?”

Wang Jinyuan narrowed his eyes and twitched his face.

To be honest, even he himself didn’t know what kind of medicine the young master was selling in the gourd!

Looking at the crowd, he was even a little confused. The price of the Chenzhuang mansion was actually not low. A twenty-foot-long mansion cost several hundred taels of silver.

Since starting a building, not everyone in Beijing will buy a mansion with a courtyard. The vast majority of people are considered lucky to have a place to live in a small building with several floors. Therefore, everyone measures this kind of building in feet!

For example, a building in a new city often costs one foot and twenty-one taels of silver. As a result, a building that can barely accommodate a family of three people with a height of twenty feet would cost about four hundred taels of silver.

Of course, the price in the old city is much cheaper, only eight or nine taels of silver per zhang.

Now that the price of silver has depreciated in the Ming Dynasty, and due to the impact of inflation, the price is not difficult in the old city, but in the new city… it is enough to prohibit ordinary people.

The selling price of Xishan New City is now similar to that of the old city. Twenty feet is less than two hundred taels of silver. Of course, it seems cheap, but in fact… it is worth a lot of money. You need to know that one acre of land is worth a lot of money. , dozens of such houses can be built, not to mention that the buildings in the new city are obviously much higher, so calculated, it can even reach hundreds of houses.

“What should I do?” Wang Jinyuan put his hands behind his back. Although he looked trembling in front of the young master, except for the young master, he was a man who walked sideways in Beijing. He had an extraordinary bearing and even spoke slowly: “What else can I do? Let’s do it, take out a few hundred sets, sell some of them first, and then tomorrow… the price will be increased, adding two taels of silver for every foot. “

If someone comes to snatch it, what else can I say? Of course, I will try my best to meet their demands. .

As a result, the new city tower in Xishan became popular even before it was completed.

These crazy people buy thirty, fifty, or even hundreds of sets, release a batch, and they are sold out immediately.

Over the years, Osman has already won over many people in Beijing with the help of the Confucian scholars who left the country. Moreover, Osman’s gold and silver have begun to flow in quietly. Li Zheng will count all the mansions he purchased every day. and cash flow are summarized.

He doesn’t understand precise calculations, but he has a rough idea.

Hundreds of units are snapped up every day, so that the price of residences in Xishan New City continues to rise.

The amount of silver spent on daily purchases often exceeds tens of thousands.

This number is extremely astonishing.

After all, the daily expenses are so huge. If you insist on it for a month, it will be hundreds of millions of taels of silver. And as the price continues to rise, the funds required are getting larger and larger, and the later it becomes, the more difficult it becomes.

Of course… Li Zheng is not worried at all about this.

Because most of the rush purchases are made with funds borrowed from Xishan Bank, a cash flow of tens of millions of taels can be leveraged by paying three million taels.

In the embassy, he was like a strategizing general, directing the trading houses below and the continuous buying of caravans every day.

But at the same time, many people began to sense that something was wrong.

Prices in Xishan New City are rising every day. In just one month, the price has risen from eighty taels of silver per zhang to fifteen taels.

This means that if you bought a house a month ago, your net worth would have doubled.

People always follow blindly.

At first, no one was optimistic about Xishan New Town. They all thought it was too remote. If you have the spare money, wouldn’t it be a good idea to buy it in the old town or the new town?

But once the price of Xishan New City skyrocketed, many people were tempted.

This is equivalent to picking up money on the ground.

It is said that Xishan New City is now full of people looking for information and waving treasure money to buy mansions.

I even heard that you have to queue up early in the morning to have a chance to buy the mansion. If it is later, you will have to go early tomorrow.

Ever since…many people started to take action.

The Xishan New Town suddenly became lively.

Every day is crowded with people.

People are excited, as if they have returned to the days when they bought real estate in the new city.

As a result, ordinary people also took out their savings that they had accumulated for several years and scraped together everything in an attempt to get a piece of the pie.

The voice of reason was quickly drowned out by the voice of greed.

“Li Shilang, the price has gone up again. In the early morning, our people continued to rush to buy, but who would have expected that… unexpectedly… today, when Mao o’clock passed, there was already a long queue. Only the people sent by Liu Dong’s family bought it. After buying hundreds of sets…the rest of them could only look at the ocean and sigh.”

At this time, the scribes were very excited, and looked at Li Zheng with a completely different view.

Li Zheng, on the other hand, looked like he was taking things lightly. He just nodded and continued to give orders: “Let them rush early tomorrow. Are the funds circulating now enough? If not… they still need to be allocated…”

“Yes, yes.” “

How many properties do you have in hand now?”

“Forty thousand units have been snapped up.”

This is an astonishing amount.

But… Li Zheng still shook his head and sighed: “It’s still not enough, it’s still far from enough.”

“It’s just that the cash in everyone’s hands has been exhausted.” A scribe said in a dilemma.

“Have all the gold you brought been exchanged for treasure banknotes?”

“It has been exchanged.” The clerk said: “In order to deceive others, the name of the caravan was deliberately used.”

“You still have to be careful.” Li Zheng He said calmly: “Besides, let everyone try their best to raise gold and silver. The more mansions we have, the ups and downs of Xishan New City will be in our hands.”

“Yes.” The scribe He said cheerfully.

…

Wang Jinyuan can help Fang Jifan take care of so many properties, so he is very capable. He has already noticed that there is something unusual. This sudden flow of money is like water flooding a golden mountain, quickly impacting Xishan New City.

Originally, this was a big plus for Xishan New City. People were used to buying when prices rose and selling when prices fell. If the prices were good, more people would naturally be willing to buy.

But Wang Jinyuan still noticed something, and he ordered Xishan Bank to start investigating the source of these cash flows.

On the other hand, while increasing the supply of the mansion, he panted and found Fang Jifan.

“Master… Young Master…” He held a stack of accounts in his hand and sent it to Fang Jifan: “Master, I think this is a bit unusual. You see… this Xishan New City has gone too far. At first, I thought it was a bit unusual. People still think that the big guys believe in the young master’s ability… No, no, no, now the little guy also thinks that the young master’s hands and eyes can reach the sky…”

Fang Jifan raised his hand and gave him a slap in the face: “The hands and the eyes, the sky, you bitch, Some people outside are calling me the emperor, do you still want to have eyes and hands like the sky?”

Fang Jifan glared at Wang Jinyuan.

Wang Jinyuan hurriedly covered his cheeks and cried: “The villain didn’t mean that. The villain meant…”

Fang Jifan immediately felt calm.

The older he got, the more he knew not to get angry. After calming down, he picked up the account, took a cursory look at it, and then raised his head: “You mean, there is a huge flow of money behind it, desperately flowing into Xishan New City? “

Exactly.” Wang Jinyuan showed concern about this and said: “This is too unusual. Originally, the Xishan New City was released slowly according to the original plan, but the crowds were surging every day, so we had to Increase the supply, young master… you said… “

If something goes wrong, it must be a monster!”

Fang Jifan smiled slightly and said, “If someone wants to buy it, there is no reason not to sell it. The land… belongs to me. No matter what the money flow is, it will eventually fall into my pocket. This is very reasonable.”

“But… …The villain is afraid…of not being able to control it…” Wang Jinyuan was worried, and he was still very risk-aware: “How about Xishan Bank tightening it…”

This was the way he thought of to avoid risks.

Fang Jifan looked very calm, shook his head and said: “Since the door is open for business, there is no reason not to sell. Don’t worry, this is just a trivial matter. If someone really causes trouble, don’t worry, I will trample him to death.”

Looking at the confident Fang Jifan, Wang Jinyuan breathed a sigh of relief and nodded quickly like a chicken pecking rice: “Young Master is wise.”

He was so convinced of his young master!

Fang Jifan immediately said: “At this time, I thought of my beloved disciple Liu Wenshan, but I don’t know how he is now. Two or three years have passed and there is no news about him. Logically speaking, this fleet should have arrived in the north. Come on, there should be news at this time. “

As a kind and righteous person, he still cares about every one of his disciples.

Speaking of this, someone rushed in rashly from outside and said in a panic: “It’s terrible, it’s terrible… My lord, it’s terrible. There’s a commotion in Xishan New Town. Many people lined up in long queues early in the morning. Who knows, just… It was sold out in half an hour, and those who couldn’t buy it refused to leave, and then made a big fuss.”

Fang Jifan: “…”

Wang Jinyuan frowned and said hurriedly: “Master, the younger one will deal with it, the younger one will deal with it now. “

Fang Jifan nodded: “Go away.”

As soon as Wang Jinyuan left, Fang Jifan put his mind back and sat back on his desk.

I saw countless design drawings on this document, all sent by Chang Wei.

Fang Jifan picked up his pen and kept deleting, deleting, and revising it, appearing extremely serious.

Now that the framework is almost built, next…it’s time to come up with something real.

…………

Thanks to the new alliance leader Jiangxi Lao Ju, I am so grateful.
