The Ming Dynasty has just been exiled and the Luzon system has awakened.

Chapter 57 The sky-high price contract is released

After having a pleasant conversation with the Earl of Argyle for nearly two hours, the matter regarding the Earl of Argyle's family being an agent for Ming products was finally settled.

The Earl of Argyll family secured the agency rights of Ming Dynasty Royal Perfume in the UK with a deposit of 20 pounds, and purchased 30 pounds of perfume. The profit sharing between the two parties was 6:4.

Zhu Heyi six, Earl of Argyll four.

This kind of profit sharing is really not low. If this were put into modern times, I am afraid it would make countless agents go crazy.

The main reason why Zhu Heyu agreed to such a sharing plan was because compared to the selling price, Zhu Heyu's cost was almost negligible. In this way, the Earl of Agail should make some money. .

After all, as the top British aristocrat, it would not hurt Zhu Heyi to maintain a good relationship with him.

Because of the huge cost of delivering the deposit and purchasing perfume, the Earl of Argyll had no money left to represent other goods, so he could only reluctantly give up the agency rights for other goods.

But not being an agent doesn’t mean not buying.

Instant noodles, canned fruits, sulfa drugs, Daming brocade cloth, watches, this is another 5 pound contract.

When the Earl of Argyle left the palace, Zhu Hechi even saw that the God of Wealth's legs were still shaking!

The contract with a total price of 55 pounds is approximately equivalent to 3900000000 Mao Zedong in later generations.

39 billion Grandpa Mao!Even if you buy a 052d destroyer, you will still have hundreds of millions left.

Zhu Heyi estimated that with this contract, the decades of accumulation of the Earl of Argyle family would become working for him.

……

After seeing off the Earl of Argyle, Zhu Hechi could no longer suppress his excitement. He jumped up and down and ran back to the office, holding Xue Wen's little hand, grinning almost to the back of his head.

"We're getting rich! Snow pattern, we're getting rich!"

55 pounds, that is 660 million taels of silver!

Coupled with the remaining silver in the treasury, his liquidity will soon exceed [-] million!

Emperor Zhu Da has never been so wealthy!

Although the Earl of Argyle has not yet paid the payment, Zhu Hechi is not worried about his breach of contract.

The Earl of Argyle was not a fool. Since he had the courage to sign this huge deal, he naturally saw the wealth that this contract would bring to his family in the future.

Moreover, although the European pirates of this era committed almost all kinds of crimes, including burning, killing, plundering and trafficking in people, they were far better at abiding by their contracts than the old Europeans who told lies with their eyes open in the previous life.

After all, in this era where pirates and plunders can get official support, moral restraint has become a joke, and the only thing that can restrain them is the contract.

Xue Wen's little face turned red again when Zhu Heyi suddenly grabbed his little hand.

She almost forgot how many times she blushed today. She glanced at Emperor Zhu Da in front of her in a panic, and tried her best to break away from Zhu Heyu's big hand.

"Your Majesty, I heard that the Propaganda Department has set up a broadcast room, so I'll take a look over there."

Saying that, regardless of whether Zhu Hetong agreed or not, Xue Wen ran away without looking back.

"Hey! Why are you leaving?"

Seeing Xuewen suddenly running away, Zhu Heyi, who was still immersed in the joy of getting rich overnight, was a little confused, but he didn't say anything. After all, he was not one of those "real dragon emperors" who gets angry easily. ".

One day later, the Earl of Argyll's payment of £55 was fully paid.

Looking at the boxes of shining gold coins.

Zhu Heyi was very curious as to why the Earl brought such a large sum of money with him when he traveled around the world.

Aren't you afraid of meeting pirates or encountering a storm?

If something happened, the loss would be too great.

In fact, the reason why the Earl of Argyll took all the money with him was due to the domestic environment in England.

After all, in recent years, the domestic environment in the UK has been far from stable.

The Anglo-French struggle for hegemony, the Glorious Revolution, the war of the League of St. Augsburg, and the domestic wars in Britain were one after another. The Earl of Argyll's property was only restored this year. In order to prevent him from encountering another change during his travels around the world, Only then did he bring most of his accumulated wealth with him.

……

When an ordinary person suddenly gets a large amount of money, there is a high probability that he will engage in retaliatory consumption behavior.

Although Zhu Heyi is now the emperor of the Ming Empire and has a plug-in like the system, he was a real ordinary person in his previous life.

Therefore, when he saw the 9-digit balance starting with 7 in the system treasury, he entered the system building interface without hesitation.

The Miracle Market for the new week has not been refreshed yet, so you can't buy anything, but in his system, the Miracle Market is not the only place to spend money.

"The recruitment fee for riflemen is 400 taels, the artillery recruitment fee is 2000 taels, and the cavalry recruitment fee is 1000 taels. If each branch recruits 1000 people...hiss, it's so expensive!"

Zhu Heyi, who had more than 900 million in savings, immediately wanted to launch a wave of troops through the military camp.

But after careful calculation, I was frightened by the huge cost and took a breath.

Just recruiting 1000 people for each of the three arms actually cost 340 million taels of silver!

3000 people means 340 million!Are these soldiers made of money?

Moreover, due to the system's urinary nature, there is a high probability that soldiers recruited from the military camp only have training memories and cannot carry equipment.

That means the artillery has no cannons, the cavalry has no horses, and the infantry has no guns. He still has to equip these soldiers with equipment!

Fortunately for the riflemen, the arsenal has been producing Mini rifles at full capacity, and there are currently more than 3000 in stock. Soldiers can equip them directly after being recruited, but artillery and war horses are a problem.

The research and development of the artillery at the arsenal had just started, and he didn't know the progress, but it would take some time to mass-produce the artillery.

And the war horse problem?

At present, there are more than 1 people in the army, but there are only more than 100 war horses. Currently, they are all used for information transmission. It is absolutely impossible to divide a batch and give them to the cavalry. In this case, the war horses can only be bought, but No matter where you go to buy it, it takes time.

After thinking for a moment, Zhu Heyi finally decided to temporarily recruit 3000 riflemen from the barracks. As for the other two arms, he would wait until the equipment was in place before considering it.

The key point was that it was still too expensive. Even though he had just made a little fortune, he couldn't afford the extremely high recruitment fee for technical troops.

It seems that the technical arms can only be recruited in small numbers from the barracks in the future and used as the backbone. The remaining soldiers will still have to be recruited from ordinary people for training.
