"Qianyu, you better go over and watch it, don't make any trouble.
After speaking, Du Qianyu went over, and by the way, he also called Yan Beitian to help, and a kind of family member of the Yuan family also followed, this is Yuan Shan, who is afraid that there will be more people and accidents, and there are still some guarantees for more people.
After a while, several businessmen came over, Zheng Qi, Xue Kai, Zhang Xingzhi and others came to talk to Yuan Shan, and Yuan Shan knew that these people should have come to talk about the steamship.
"President Yuan, today's sailless steamship is really an eye-opener for us."
Zheng Qi said.
"The development of a steamship is nothing more than to be able to make the ship go farther and less dangerous."
Yuan Shan said.
"I don't know if this steamship has a plan for the next step, whether we people can be the beneficiaries of this steamship."
Zheng Qi said.
"Why do you want to invest in this steamship project?"
Yuan Shan said that he knew that this was the key, he said plainly, but he really couldn't make up his mind in his heart, he knew that the project of this steamship was not so easy, whether it was the cost or time of investment, it was not a short period of time to obtain benefits, and for these businessmen, it was not an investment that was immediately in line with the interests They may not be interested.
But since they asked about this, Yuan Shan could only tell them the situation, even if they didn't want to build a steam shipyard with the economic strength of the Yuan family, it was actually a matter of time.
"Yes, steam ships are more suitable for navigation in various environments than traditional sailboats, but steam ships are very expensive and take a long time to build, so would you still be interested in this?"
Yuan Shan said with Guan Zi sold.
"Isn't it just money, why don't you talk about how much you need first?"
Xue Kai asked.
"Well, if you want to build a shipyard, you may need millions of dollars in the early stage."
Yuan Shan said.
"It's surprising that millions of dollars are just an early investment."
Xue Kai said that he knew that hundreds of thousands of ordinary shipyards were almost the same, and more investment was in the manufacture of large ships, but the investment of a single shipyard used so much money, and he was still a little weak in his heart, even if several companies jointly shared it, I am afraid it will take dozens or even millions of yuan, if the Xue family's family wealth is taken out, it may be enough.
The first one to be instigated is Xue Kai, this old man is very shrewd, the shops in Yonghefang have invested a lot of money, although the business is good, but for such a big investment, it has not yet returned to the capital.
Besides, if so much money is taken out to invest in this project that takes a long time, what should the Xue family do, and the liquidity cannot maintain the normal operation of the family at all.
Just when Xue Kai remained silent, several people from the Building Materials Chamber of Commerce had some simple exchanges, and then Zheng Satisfaction suddenly said: "We, the Building Materials Chamber of Commerce, have always followed the steps of the president, and the construction of the shipyard is counted as one of us, and we are willing to take out eighty percent of the income of the Building Materials Chamber of Commerce to support this project." ” Building Materials Chamber of Commerce eighty percent of the interests of the businessmen feel that this is a very bold decision, the building materials Chamber of Commerce how profitable they know, if it were not for the restrictions of the formula, some businessmen would have been like opening a kiln factory to burn cement, but now the building materials Chamber of Commerce has formed a scale, even if there is competition, it is to hit the stone with eggs, and in the end it can only become the material supplier of the Building Materials Chamber of Commerce.
"Be cautious about satisfying this matter."
Zheng Qi said.
Zheng Qi said this out of the identity of the eldest son of the Zheng family, Zheng Satisfaction stood behind him, and to put it bluntly, it was also the Zheng family, but during this time, Zheng Satisfaction was already interested in breaking away from the Zheng family's backer, Zheng Satisfaction said directly: "This matter is the opinion of the shareholders of the Building Materials Chamber of Commerce, not my personal decision, and uncle, I think it is worth taking a risk to invest in this project, and I believe that President Yuan will be able to lead us to get more benefits." ” Zheng is very satisfied, and now he is tied to the building materials chamber of commerce, and with the financial resources of the Zheng family, he cannot compete with the Zheng family's lineage, but this cannot be determined, and the side line must have less money than the lineage.
Zheng is satisfied with wealth, but also has a different desire.
Xue Kai on the side said at this time: "Young people are courageous. ” Zheng Qi didn't say anything after hearing this, after this time, some rich businessmen were hesitating that their money was not so easy, even if these people made a lot of money through cotton and corn, they didn't mean that they wanted to help Yuanshan do anything, they still insisted on profit.
"How can you spend money without the prince, isn't it just to build a shipyard, and the prince of Yuanshan can invest one million yuan."
Li Chengqian suddenly came over at this time, and he was followed by a group of princes and noble sons behind him.
For Li Chengqian to invest 1 million guan, the businessmen immediately talked about it, many of them were in the family after several generations of business to have a wealth of hundreds of thousands of guan, but they didn't expect the prince to casually say that he would invest 1 million guan, such courage really shocked them.
At the same time, he also has some confidence that there is such a prince in Datang, the key is that this prince also attaches great importance to business, which is what they want to see, so many businessmen don't want to wade into troubled waters, but they also have to change their minds at this time.
It's just that Yuan Shan didn't have much expression on his face when he heard this, just a few million yuan is like building a shipyard, this investment is already a super huge amount of money for the Tang people, and for Yuan Shan, this is just a number and has no concept.
"Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said so, then I can't refuse, but the matter of building a shipyard still needs to be reported to the imperial court, and I hope His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can contribute."
Yuan Shan said.
"If you want to invest, let's use the amount of one million as a standard, several parties can cooperate, but those who invest need to establish a unified account as a corresponding to the division of labor in the future, if the weather is good today, if you have an investment intention, you can say it, and we will sign the investment intention on the spot."
Won-sun continued.
After the intention is negotiated, the investment contract will be officially signed, and it will have to wait for the expression after reporting to the imperial court, but the steamship now has a physical trust, and soon this caution will be able to spread to every corner of Datang.
Businessmen are not only here in Chang'an City, but also in Luoyang and other places, Yuanshan is still very confident in financing, but this project is still a little ahead of schedule in terms of the current progress.
A month later, a group of businessmen gathered again on the banks of the Weishui River and signed an investment contract on a medium-sized steam-powered ship, with a total investment of 12 million yuan, a total of 11 accounts, and one of the accounts accounted for 20% of the investment and did not invest a penny.
This account came from the imperial treasury, although there was no investment money, but a large piece of vacant land was divided into the Cangzhou coastal area as the construction base of the shipyard, which directly covered a part of the land and a large area of the port, and this land became a shipyard from the signing of the contract.
Although the imperial court will not participate in the management and operation, the protection and cooperation of the construction are guaranteed by the holy decree.
