Chapter 736 Earn Money and Get a House Later

"Third brother, the business does not necessarily have to make real money, but how much money you want to give to which official."

Li Yi said as he picked up the wine glass and took a sip himself.

Li Longji didn't drink. He was trying to think about what he meant.

What does it mean to make no money in business? How much money should be paid to officials?

He had to figure it out on his own, otherwise he would look too stupid.

Li Yi ignored him and ate slowly by himself. If he had beef, he made soy sauce beef, which was perfect for drinking.

After thinking for a long time, Li Longji finally didn't come up with it.

"Brother Yi, tell me." Li Longji took a sip of wine.

"Third brother, you are an official. I'm looking for you to buy shares. You decide how much to invest, which business you want to do, and when you want to make money." Li Yi gave a very loose choice.

"I will tell you the amount of money, the transaction, and the time. Can you let me make money?" Li Longji realized that something was wrong.

"Yeah." Li Yi smiled and nodded.

"Okay, I'll invest a hundred dollars to raise sheep, and I'll make money in five days." Li Longji didn't believe it yet.

One hundred dollars to raise sheep, five days, come on, Brother Yi, you are great, let me earn some money for you.

"So third brother, what rank are you? Do you have real power? How much do you want to earn? It's impossible for a seventh-rank official to earn ten min."

Li Yi asked about the conditions again.

"Minister of the Ministry of War, I want to earn a hundred min." Li Longji gave two conditions.

Li Yi shook his head: "Not even the Minister of the Ministry of War. One hundred coins is too much. The investment of one hundred yuan for five days is too much for the Minister of the Ministry of War to bear."

"I am the current emperor..."

"Okay, just pretend that you are the current emperor. You didn't hear me." Li Yi took over.

"This is delicious. The mushrooms absorb the flavor of the broth and are chewy."

"The soup is delicious, but you all can't eat it."

“The best thing is the hot sauce, made with beef.”

"Did the proprietor speak just now?"

"No, you were hallucinating, otherwise no one would have heard it."

"Yes."

The eunuchs and maids suddenly spoke loudly.

Queen Wang was listening there and wanted to laugh.

The little guy said: "I didn't hear you."

"Third brother, it's okay. The status you mentioned is okay. One hundred dollars, raising sheep, and one hundred yuan in five days." Li Yi was satisfied.

"Okay, brother, let's see how you make money." Li Longji glanced at the palace maids and eunuchs.

"Okay, let's see how I earn it for you." Li Yi drank the wine in the cup in one gulp.

The surroundings became quiet, and everyone wanted to know what means could be used to achieve these goals.

"The emperor will pay one hundred yuan, and I will pay one hundred yuan to raise sheep and go to the East Market to buy lambs.

When we arrived at Dongshi, we found a three-month-old lamb, wilting.

No one else would buy it, but I could tell at a glance that there was something wrong with it, so I bargained and bought it for 180 yuan.

Then I killed the lamb and took out the sheep yellow, which is also called sheep stone. It is the same as bezoar and can replace bezoar.

People around me wanted to buy, so I rushed to sell. It happened that a family member of a big businessman was sick and needed bezoar but couldn't buy it.

So he paid a high price of five cents to buy the yellow sheep. I took the five cents to buy another sheep and found that two sheep were languid. I..."

"Brother Yi, stop talking. Brother Wei already knows. Can we still find a merchant and admit it? And he paid taxes when buying and selling?"

Li Longji realized what kind of business this was. It was clearly a matter of using money to earn a reasonable income and then pay dividends.

Not to mention a hundred min, as long as you are willing, a thousand min is no problem.

Li Yi poured the wine, he was familiar with such things.

Businessmen with less ability bribed officials by asking them to buy shares.

Normally no one checks, but if you want to check, you can still find out.

This small businessman is not really small.

And capable big businessmen ask officials to buy funds.

If a smaller fund uses other people's money to compensate officials and make money for officials, this cannot be found out. Officials are considered normal investment income.

A medium method is to let officials buy antiques or even jade.

Gold is valuable but jade is priceless. Officials bought it, and there were people on the spot who said it was good and wanted to buy it.

Another method is to go to an outside casino and win money from gambling. As long as you pay taxes legally, it is the official's normal income.

But later the casino banned officials from going and the road was closed.

"Brother Yi, are officials making money like this? It's better not to make money at all." Li Longji said after taking a sip of wine.

"Normal buying and selling is enough, but officials with different grades and real powers will be slightly tilted during the buying and selling process."

Li Yi shook his head. He was just giving an example, not really following his method of buying sheep.

Datang Chang'an is now full of opportunities, and it's too easy to find one that makes money.

"That's fine. If the money an official earns is enough for his family's expenses, there will be no reason to reach out."

Li Longji talked about the situation of officials. Some of them really had little money and were still serving as officials in Chang'an.

I can only live outside the city and earn some money from time to time. I really want to punish him, but I can't bear it.

If the business is run normally by trustworthy people, officials buy shares, and the income is stable, there is no need to consider the difficulty of the other party when cleaning up.

"Uncle, some officials go to rent houses outside the city. In fact, their lives are not good. Some officials even live in temples."

Queen Wang also understood the situation, and what she meant was to arrange for the officials to buy shares as soon as possible.

Li Yi frowned, thought for a while, and said, "Actually, there is a way. The issue of the official's house is the easiest to solve."

"How to solve it?" Li Longji was most concerned about this.

"The settlement area." Li Yi pointed to where the outsiders lived.

"Build the same building? And then put the officials in it?" Li Longji figured it out at once.

Yes, the court learned to build houses outside the city, which occupy a small area and have many rooms.

For officials who live in temples or rent houses, if they are willing to live there, they can arrange it.

Even if it is a fifth-rank official, it is no problem to appear at the grand court meeting. The gates of Chang'an are not closed at night, just get up early.

Li Yi nodded, the temporary allocation of houses for officials.

He had it at that time, and those with very low ranks were also given a house to live in.

Later... Later, those with high ranks still had it, and the others had to find a way themselves.

"Build a house in winter..." Li Longji wanted to achieve his goal as soon as possible, but he was worried that it would be difficult to build a house in winter. How to lay the foundation?

"You can build a simple house first, with tarpaulin paper. It is impossible to make money and distribute dividends immediately when buying and selling shares."

Li Yi thought of the situation after Yao Chong resigned in history, and sighed in his heart.

Then there are still many officials in Chang'an who need help, especially those at the bottom.

We cannot ask officials to work hard while ignoring their actual situation.

"Brother Yi, drink. Let the court handle such matters. It is enough for us to give an idea."

Li Longji held the wine glass. He had made a decision.

Tomorrow, he will order the construction of a house, a one-story bungalow, which belongs to the official house, so that officials can live in it and look decent.

We also need to put up a kang and burn coal.
