Guo Dan did not lie to them. If the general environment was aside, he would not have started a coin workshop because he would definitely not be able to do it.

To put it bluntly, this is about who can see through the supply and demand relationship.

It is no exaggeration to say that when Guo Dan took over Wei Hui Mansion, he had already expected that there might be today. After the court lost its power to mint coins, the currency had to rely on overseas inflows. A few years ago, the currency was relatively stable because a large amount of silver was inflowed at that time.

However, with the rapid development of the domestic commodity economy in recent years, currency will definitely not be enough, because the current currency is inflows overseas. However, if the state issues and the state does not have this power, then there will be no increase in currency that exceeds the economic development of the Ming Dynasty.

Then whoever can supply money will naturally make a fortune.

But then again, Guo Dan really doesn't want to make a lot of money with this, so he just guarantees that the coin workshop is basically profitable and gives a very fair price. What he wants is a stable market.

The bigger the market, the more he earns.

He really wanted to provide the market with a stable currency and stimulate the market. Looking at the states and prefectures in the Ming Dynasty, it was not that the coastal areas were developed, but that the state government had more currencies and the economy was developed. It can be seen clearly from the flow of funds in the money house. Without currency, it could not develop. However, the outbreak of production in Weihui Prefecture further made money shortage.

This has led to the market being filled with bad coins. A copper coin really needs to be used. Because there is little money, people will also collect bad coins, which shows that prices have long been falling.

After Yinuo coins appeared, merchants chose to directly reduce the price. These merchants were smarter than anyone else. This is not difficult to calculate. As long as everyone uses Yinuo coins, the price reduction is also more cost-effective.

Yinuo coins are just a fuse, not the fundamental reason. The fundamental reason is that currency is scarce, and currency becomes more valuable.

Unfortunately, the officials and the men didn't understand these things, which made them feel like they were looking at flowers in the fog and were confused.

But the more magical operation is still to come.

Yinuoya Store suddenly gave the price of using Yinuo coins to settle commodities. The purchasing power of Yinuo coins to farm products is lower than that in the current market, but the products such as pen, ink, paper and ink are almost the same as the market, and some are even slightly higher.

This is originally a self-adjustment of Yinuoyaxing, just like other merchants.

But almost overnight, all merchants adjusted the price based on the price given by Yinuoya Bank. Before, merchants adjusted the price based on Yinuocoin, but it was not unified and there were differences. It depends on the merchant's own understanding of Yinuocoin.

Now, prices in Nanjing have stabilized instantly.

The men were all stunned!

Are you making tricks?

They have never seen such a terrifying macro-control ability. If they let them regulate prices, they will inevitably make a mess and often cannot be solved. In the end, they still have to rely on market self-regulation, which is naturally full of exploitation.

Because the court cannot control it, of course they will go to the death, and the businessman is so heartless.

They felt that Guo Dan's threat was getting bigger and bigger.

Only Wang Xijue knew that Guo Dan's regulation was beneficial to the country and the people. Relatively speaking, farmers' interests increased. They had lowered together before, but now the farm products were reduced less, while other commodities were reduced a lot. Relatively speaking, the prices of farm products were increased.

Of course, the biggest profits are those who are transforming.

As soon as this transformation occurs, the prices of farm products have risen invisibly, which is really...

Regret!

I really regret it!

Dry!

Who was the one who spread rumors to prevent Yinuo coins from entering Nanjing? How much money should we make before entering half a year!

However, when they were still immersed in this magical No-coin, Guo Dan was already planning the next step, because this was in Guo Dan's expectation. An important reason for his pursuit of currency was to allow himself to gain the ability to regulate macroeconomicly. Kou Weisha would not be surprised, because Guo Dan told her a few years ago.

But another important reason for this is that he gained control over overseas trade.

If he does not gain control of overseas trade, he will not dare to do this. If the price is too low, more money will inevitably pour in overseas, and the cheaper ones will be made.

Now he controls the overseas trade of commodities with one hand and domestic currency with the other, which can be said to be both internal and external.

As long as this product goes overseas, it will be another price. What is the price lies in the negotiations between Guo Dan and the other party. However, Guo Dan went to Jiangnan this time not only for Yinuo Money House, but actually more for Yinuo Grain Store. The grain store is naturally related to grain, which is also his next move.

He has been waiting for Li Tong to arrive.

And today Li Tong finally arrived in Nanjing.

Yinuoya!

Guo Dan and Aunt Xu were sitting on the sofa, while Li Tong stood in front of a map of the South China Sea and said: "At present, we have become the largest grain merchant in the South China Sea region, and the largest grain buyer in Luzon, Siam, and Jiaozhi. From this year on, we can ensure that we ship 1.5 million stones of grain to Tianjin every year, which is enough to meet the grain needs of Northern Zhili. If we need it, the amount can still increase to two million stones. According to the calculations of Xinxing, if all imported grain is used to meet the needs of Northern Zhili and Liaodong Town, the cost is about 30% lower than before."

Aunt Xu was surprised and said, "The cost of transporting it from such a distance to Beizhili is so much lower?"

Guo Tan smiled and said, "The canal transport is used to transport, while the sea transport is used to float, and this ship can reach at least a dozen ships. Can this be compared?"

Li Tong nodded and said, "It is true that if the sea transportation risks can be effectively avoided, the cost of sea transportation is indeed much lower than that of canal transportation, because the canal transportation also includes many unnecessary losses, and sea transportation will not have these losses."

Unnecessary losses are naturally worthy of embezzlement and bribery.

Guo Tan asked, "Just tell me directly how much we can earn in this eight million taels of grain."

Li Tong: "If I were to follow the general manager's plan, I would be able to earn at least four million taels."

Aunt Xu was shocked and said, "Make 4 million taels."

Guo Dan hurriedly said, "Don't listen to him nonsense. He only calculated the transaction profit of this goods and did not count the previous shipbuilding and wharf construction costs."

Li Tong nodded and said, "Yes, I didn't count the previous expenses. I only count the profits obtained from the exchange every year, and even our labor costs are not included."

"Then...that's incredible. How could you make 4 million taels of 8 million taels?" Aunt Xu was deeply puzzled.

Li Tong said embarrassedly: "That's all the general manager's plan."

Aunt Xu looked at Guo Dan again.

Guo Dan explained: "It's like this. First of all, the cost of shipping is low, so we can make a fortune here. Secondly, we don't buy it with silver, but we first occupy their entire market with our Ming Dynasty goods, and exchange the goods for money, and then exchange it for food. There are huge profits here. For example, in the Ming Dynasty, a ship of silk can only be ten ships of food, but there may be thirty ships of food there.

At that time, if the food tax in Jiangsu is incurred, we will not ship it to Beijing, but will directly sell it to large cities such as Nanjing for currency, then buy goods, and then sell the goods to the South China Sea, where will we exchange grain and transport it to Beizhili."

Domestic commerce is developing rapidly, productivity is increasing soaring, goods are cheap, and exports are exponentially mixed, whether they are for food or silver.

Currently, 70% of the rich people in the South China Sea wear or use them, almost all of them are provided by Wei Hui Mansion.

Aunt Xu was a little confused when she heard this scale and cross-regional transactions were much higher than her level, and said: "Fortune comes and goes, the cost should be higher."

Guo Dan didn't expect Aunt Xu to ask such a childish question, and hehe: "Although the shipping is always going to be done, the cost is actually reduced. I said before that the cost of transporting grain to Beijing from Jiangsu is higher than that of shipping by sea. In addition, when our goods are sold to other places, the final price is increased by shipping. There is no way. My Ming products are unparalleled in the world, and everyone wants them."

Li Tong hurriedly said: "The general manager is right. Since we started purchasing grain, the Franji people have started to trade grains. They even complained to us that our Ming Dynasty was finally imported goods other than silver. When we talked, tears were almost flowing out. At the same time, we used grain transactions and had already controlled the iron pot trade in Foshan, and the profits were also huge."

It is really not easy for Westerners. They have serious imbalances in the trade of the Ming Dynasty, because they don’t want anything to do, they just need money. The fat man is simply the most perfect embodiment of the Ming Dynasty. If he doesn’t become One Piece, who will become One Piece?

But the whole world wants the products of the Ming Dynasty. If you can’t afford the money, you can’t buy the products of the Ming Dynasty.

Everyone was hoping that the Ming Dynasty would import more goods. When Guo Dan started to buy grain, the entire South China Sea area was in turmoil.

Guo Dan frowned slightly and said, "We have to discuss this matter carefully. The Franji people are not good at it. They must not let them control the pricing power of grain. When discussing the price of grain, we must be ruthless. If they dare to ask for a high price, we will not buy it."

Li Tong: "Please rest assured, General Manager, we have controlled the entire Luzon. If they dare to do anything bad to us, we can kick them back with one kick."

He had been staying in Fuzhou before, and he was the master in Fuzhou. Everyone had to look at his face, including the grape man, which caused this guy to become a little swelling recently.

"That won't work."

Guo Tan smiled and said, "They are our big customers. The competition is not about life and death, but who earns more and who earns less. But I have to think carefully about how to play. You can go and take a break first."

"yes."

After Li Tong left, Guo Dan turned his head and saw Aunt Xu sitting blankly, with a slight sweat on her forehead and said, "Madam, are you okay?"

Aunt Xu was slightly stunned, raised her hand slightly, and stopped Guo Dan from approaching, "Don't quarrel at me for now, I... I want to be alone and quiet."

Guo Dan looked at Aunt Xu with a look of surprise. He had never seen Aunt Xu show such a frustrated expression, but nothing happened just now. It was just that Li Tong was reporting on his work in recent years.

It's so simple.

He ignored Aunt Xu's pride as a woman, which also led to Aunt Xu's real unacceptable fact for the time being, because she always thought she was knowledgeable, but when Li Tong said that just now, she immediately felt that she was a frog in the well.

Is this a business?

But what she didn't expect was how much money and energy the Emperor and Shang Group invested in controlling overseas trade, how many risks it took, how many political struggles and overseas plans were the fuses.

If you can't make any money, why don't you lose this energy?
