Chapter 580

"I have a grudge against the Great Tang, but I like you two very much. Let alone staying for half a month, even if you stay in Great Qin to be officials, it's fine!"

Poaching again?

Li Er secretly glared at Fang Xuanling.

He was truly afraid that Fang Xuanling would abandon him.

For the Great Tang to regain its former glory, it cannot do without this mastermind.

Fang Xuanling bowed and was about to reply.

Just at this moment, Wei Zhongxian came in.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Shen Wansan requests an audience."

Upon hearing this, Qin Mu guessed that Shen Wansan was here to report the results of the economic war with those aristocratic families during this period.

These matters, it just so happens that Fang Xuanling and Old Li can also listen.

"Let him in."

Li Er and Fang Xuanling had both heard of Shen Wansan's name and knew he was one of Qin Mu's trusted confidants.

Things reported by such confidants are generally confidential.

Don't know what Qin Mu means by letting him report in public?

Li Er's eyes lit up.

If he could take this opportunity to hear some internal secrets of Great Qin, it would be a gain.

Shen Wansan came in and saw Fang Xuanling and Old Li, and his footsteps indeed slowed down.

It wasn't obvious, but it was still captured by Li Er.

Indicating that he had hesitated internally just now.

Maybe there really are secrets!

Li Er's mood finally felt a bit excited, and he pricked up his ears to listen.

Shen Wansan bowed to Qin Mu and said.

"Your Majesty, I have already acquired most of the shops in the East and West Markets. Now the difficulty of continuing the acquisition has increased, so I plan to close the net now. I have come to ask for Your Majesty's instructions." Shen Wansan was probably wary of others being present, so he spoke very vaguely.

Li Er and Fang Xuanling basically didn't understand what he was talking about.

Only understood one thing, which is that the shops in the East and West Markets were acquired by Shen Wansan for the most part.

This doesn't seem like a big deal?

Those shops are the private property of aristocratic families and have nothing to do with the Great Tang imperial court.

Qin Mu was very satisfied with the results reported by Shen Wansan.

"After you close the net, what is the ratio of profit you can make?"

This question was asked so blatantly.

Shen Wansan immediately understood that such secrets don't need to be hidden from the Great Tang envoys.

"Returning to Your Majesty, the ratio is twenty times. After deducting the capital, I can still earn nineteen times!"

Nineteen times!

Li Er and Fang Xuanling, although they didn't understand what they were talking about.

But they still understood this profit.

The profit is nineteen times the capital, what business can be so profitable?

More satisfying than robbing money!

Qin Mu seemed to be deliberately teasing Li Er and Fang Xuanling bit by bit.

Said.

"Shen Wansan, explain the operation process simply again."

Shen Wansan subconsciously glanced at Li Er and the others.

This glance made Li Er feel as if he were a prey being targeted.

Clearly unrelated to himself, why would there be a premonition of suffering a big loss?

Shen Wansan licked his lips and began to speak.

"Your Majesty, I have minted copper coins with the same specifications as the Great Tang copper coins. According to the purchasing power of the Great Tang copper coins, when closing the net, I will announce that the Great Qin copper coins are pegged to the price of rice, which is one hundred wen to buy one dou of rice." Li Er and Fang Xuanling were both confused and didn't quite understand the specific meaning of this fixed rice price.

Just felt that Great Qin's rice is very expensive!

Went to acquire these shops.

Qin Mu smiled and asked, as if explaining and as if answering.

"In other words, within the Great Tang territory, five wen can buy one dou of rice. Within the Great Qin territory, it takes one hundred wen to buy one dou of rice."

"One dou of Qin rice can be exchanged for twenty dou of Tang rice, is that what it means?"
