Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

Chapter 625 The Potential of the Rich Family Merchants

100吨钞票用纸大约也就是100立方米出头。而李恪那个地下仓库,光是1元纸币的货币纸张就存储了3万吨,抛开50和100元的钞票专用纸不能用,剩下的那些货币足够大唐用100年估计都要多。

What's more, it is impossible for Li Ke to print all 1 guan banknotes, although 1 guan banknotes must be the most.

However, there must not be many banknotes that ordinary people come into contact with. Ordinary people must use copper coins. When these enterprises pay taxes, Datang will not have enough copper coins.

If it is only counted by the copper coins circulated by ordinary people, it is estimated that several million guan will be enough.

After all, if the common people sell food in a concentrated manner, they may also get banknotes such as 1 guan in the future, and there will be no problem of using them.

The only problem is that the money bank will have to keep up with the popularization.

Temporarily implemented in Lingnan Road, there is no big problem, and the banknotes will be released after one year.

After Li Ke told these aristocratic families the ratio of commercial tax collection, they discussed it.Li Ke did not bother these powerful families, but let them discuss. These people discussed with each other in low voices for a long time, and then someone said: "Your Highness, we have no problem, we can pay this business tax, but your Highness , how does His Highness plan to sell this Dan Dan country?"

What Li Ke said about the business tax is very clear, they can understand it, and the ratio Li Ke collects is indeed not high, it is one tenth of the profit tax, and 3% business tax, the overall ratio is not high.

They can accept it. Of course, another reason why they can accept it is because this business tax... I'm afraid it cannot be refused.

Since His Highness dared to bring it up here, he must have thought about it long ago. Although they have just started to implement Lingnan Road, His Majesty will definitely promote it throughout the country in the future. Unable to resist, why should they, these local powerful families in Lingnan?

Since you can't resist, then of course you have to join in happily, first to make a good impression on His Highness.

What's more, although they started to pay commercial taxes first, didn't they also enjoy the treatment of "buying the country" from His Highness first? !

"Sell? No, no, no, I won't sell it, I'll give it away for free." Li Ke said with a smile.

free delivery? !All the aristocratic families were in an uproar in an instant!Is there such a good thing in the world? !

"I only have one request!" Li Ke ignored the shock in their eyes, but continued.

"Please speak, Your Highness." All eyes turned to him.

"Datang will definitely station a fleet here at that time. This is to protect everyone's safety. Therefore, the fleet will be stationed in these ports. The fleet will replenish fresh water, food and other resources in these ports. These things must be provided to the fleet at a cost price." Li Ke said with a calm face.

Cost price?What?Your Highness is still going to pay? !My goodness, is there a better Highness in the world than His Highness?no!This... hey!Why is His Highness not the prince!It would be great if His Highness were the prince!

"It must be no problem!" These merchants are not stupid at all, nonsense, the fleet is to protect their safety, and they are willing to provide supplies for free, let alone the cost price? !What else is there to say, I must agree!

Li Ke smiled. The reason why it is the cost price is naturally that Li Ke has to make rules.There are some things that can’t be opened. Even if all the merchants you bought at the port donate enough funds for these fleets to replenish fresh water and food and even have a surplus every year, this money must be paid.

Rules are rules, and rules cannot be broken.

"Then, besides that, the entire Dandan Kingdom, oh no, it will be called Lizhi Island in the future." Li Ke thought for a while, and simply named it after Changle, and Li Ke had the final say.

"In Lizhi Island and Lizhi Port in the future, each of your powerful families will allocate shares according to their respective investment amounts. After the port is completed and expanded in the future, I don't care how the hotels and restaurants on the port provide services to the ships passing by, but the port itself must be the same. If you need to charge parking fees, management fees, etc., these are your profits, but you can’t charge them randomly.”

"And the entire port will be regarded as a large-scale commercial firm, which also has to pay commercial taxes. You will allocate shares according to the joint-stock system."

"Think about it, this place is the only way for future trade, that is to say, even if it passes 1000 years, it is the only way for ships! So it must be profitable!"

"Then it's reasonable for Datang Royal Trust to take 49% of the shares in this port?" Li Ke looked at them and said.

These businessmen didn't hesitate at all, only forty-nine percent?Very reasonable!Very reasonable!They were too excited, because His Highness didn't ask for money at all!Although they spent money on the construction of the port, they can only get [-]% of the shares after it is completed.

But don't forget, this port was built by the Datang Navy, and it was given to them for free!There is not nothing there, there are related infrastructure and local people's lives there, and these can be regarded as directly given to them.

"Very reasonable, very reasonable!" These businessmen nodded quickly.

"Well, then there is no problem. You can take out your family's copper coins, gold and silver, and prepare to go to Shanghai to buy ships! If you don't know how to build a port, you can hire someone from Yuelai Trading Company under my name. People, they will set up a construction team, they have professionals! Oh, by the way, as for whether this seaport firm wants to increase its shares, you can discuss it yourself, I don’t care.” Li Ke said with a smile.

"Yes!" These aristocratic families and businessmen in Lingnan Road took action one after another.

Li Ke doesn't care how much money they have. In a word, Li Ke is an investment in their construction, and he can just take [-]% of the shares of the port.Give them sufficient autonomy and believe in the abilities of the powerful families of this era. As long as they have sufficient motivation, the explosive capabilities of these powerful families will probably be jaw-dropping even for future generations.

Li Ke's meeting was very successful. After the meeting is over, relevant content will be directly published on the Guangzhou edition of Datang Weekly and announced to the outside world, and relevant news will definitely be passed on to other regions.

At that time, the Datang Weekly in Chang'an City will definitely announce the news.

As for whether other aristocratic families would want to join in and get a share of the pie, Li Ke thinks it would be difficult.

Although they are all more powerful than these powerful families, but when all the powerful families in the entire Lingnan Road are monolithic and have common interests, it is impossible for others to join in.
