Chapter 1141 Uneven distribution of spoils
Interested?
Of course tempted.
The patriarch of the aristocratic family is not a saint, and the clansmen are not gods who do not eat fireworks in the world. How can they not be tempted by huge benefits?
The bigger the family, the more people there are, and the more money and food they need.
Today, the territory of the Tang Dynasty is vast, but the population is too small, and there is too much wasteland to be reclaimed. After the wasteland is reclaimed, more food can be grown, why is no one reclaimed?
Because of the lack of labor, there are only so many young and strong people in the Tang Dynasty. Counting eight or nine-year-old children who can do farm work, it is far from enough to reclaim wasteland. It is surrounded by officials and dignitaries.
If there are suddenly tens of thousands or 10,000+ young and strong laborers, how much wasteland will be opened up and how much more food will be collected every year.
Cui Linqian was indeed tempted.
The Cui family in Qingzhou has been a powerful family for hundreds of years, and they have accumulated a lot of land under their name over the years. In terms of the amount of land, the Cui family in Qingzhou alone can absorb [-] young and strong laborers.
The reason why Li Qinzai decided to sell the Japanese youth to Qingzhou, Dengzhou was mainly to consider the transportation and turnover issues.
If it is sold to Datang Guanzhong, not to mention the long distance, the transportation cost is also high, and it is impossible for these young people to get any good treatment along the way. If 1 people are sent to Guanzhong, it is lucky to survive for [-].
More than half of the discount rate, this sale is too bad, it is better to sell it after disembarking from Dengzhou, the discount rate is greatly reduced, and the money will naturally be made more.
This is also the biggest reason why Li Qinzai asked his father-in-law to cooperate in this transaction.
However, Cui Linqian's dignified appearance at this moment surprised Li Qinzai.
People who can talk about this kind of shady business together show that everyone's moral bottom line is at the same level. Is it necessary to pretend?Isn't it okay to show the dignified appearance to outsiders?
Li Qinzai gradually looked at his father-in-law with contempt.
Cui Linqian took a deep breath, he understood Li Qinzai's contemptuous eyes.
Taking off the disguise, Cui Linqian didn't intend to pretend anymore, otherwise he would be despised to death by his son-in-law, and the elders would also lose face.
"The Cui family can help sell the young men of the Japanese country, but the Cui family cannot come forward." Cui Linqian said in a deep voice.
Li Qinzai smiled: "My son-in-law only looks at the result. How the father-in-law sells it and who he asks to sell it is your business. My son-in-law is not interested in knowing. I just want the channels to be open, because this transaction may last for several years."
Cui Linqian frowned: "The Cui family took over from Dengzhou Port. Can you guarantee the transportation? Every time at least a thousand Japanese come by ferry, won't the officials attract attention?"
Li Qinzai looked at Xue Na with a smile.
Xue Na grinned: "In terms of transportation, we don't need naval warships. Why don't we buy two large merchant ships, and then I will open up the joints of Sun Renshi's navy and give some benefits to the generals under his command. Every time I give it away, Please ask the navy to send two warships to escort, and everything will be safe."
"Even if it attracts attention, the Japanese people are transported by private merchant ships, which have nothing to do with the government or the military. Besides, with Brother Jingchu and I in Chang'an, this matter cannot be exposed to the sky. Even if the emperor really knows about it, It's not a taboo thing, at most you will be reprimanded by the emperor..."
Li Qinzai said with a smile: "After returning to Chang'an, I will take the initiative to talk about this matter with the emperor, empty out the young and strong of the Japanese country, help our Datang to open up wasteland and farm land, measure the manpower of the Japanese country, and win the favor of the Datang, which is a good thing for the Datang. The Son of Heaven has no reason to be angry."
Cui Linqian nodded slowly, with a flash of light in his eyes, he stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Then, how will the three of us share this deal?"
Li Qinzai's spirit lifted, and he finally got to the point.
"I account for five, careful words account for four, and my father-in-law accounts for one." Li Qinzai said without hesitation.
Cui Linqian was stunned, and looked at him in disbelief: "Do you dare to be more black?"
"Half success?" Li Qinzai tentatively asked.
Cui Linqian was furious: "This old man is quitting! Farewell!"
After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked away with a flick of his sleeves, then stopped suddenly: "No, this is the old man's house, and it is you who should say goodbye, you get out!"
Xue Na looked at Li Qinzai innocently: "Brother Jingchu, your husband is so irritable..."
Li Qinzai said dryly, "I'm laughing, I'm laughing."
Cui Linqian became more and more furious: "Who laughed? Who laughed? Is this old man ridiculous?"
Li Qinzai didn't panic at all. His relatives were often so angry that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven. He was never afraid, let alone a mere father-in-law.
"Father-in-law, you are wrong. You ask for prices all over the place, and you pay back the money when you land. There is no way you can turn your face when you talk about business. You are really too irritable." Li Qinzai persuaded gently.
Cui Linqian tried his best to calm down his furious mood.
Well, I can't let the two juniors look down on me, I must control my emotions.
"Just now you said that you can pay back the money on the ground, right? Then the old man will make a price, I will take five, and you two will share the five, how about it?" Cui Linqian said slowly.
Li Qinzai and Xue Na sneered at the same time, as expected of two brothers, they had a tacit understanding, even their sarcastic expressions were murderous.
Xue Na whispered in Li Qinzai's ear: "Brother Jingchu, your father-in-law is a little confused, is he really the head of the Cui family in Qingzhou?"
Li Qinzai sighed: "He really is, but he does seem to be a bit old-fashioned. It seems that the Patriarch won't last long... What are you daydreaming about, and you have the nerve to open your mouth halfway, tsk!"
Cui Linqian's face was livid, and the two bastards were whispering...too loudly!
"Thirty percent, I want thirty percent! If it's less than thirty percent, I really quit!" Cui Linqian said angrily.
Li Qinzai glanced at him, then continued to whisper to Xue Na.
"He is not afraid that the wind will flash his tongue, and he will sell a few people with his mouth. There is no risk at all, so he wants to share [-]%, not to mention that labor can help his family open up wasteland and increase food production. He wants both benefits. , being so greedy at such a young age..."
Xue Ne hummed: "Why don't we change to another partner? Your father-in-law doesn't seem sober..."
Cui Linqian was furious and didn't want to bear it any longer.
"What a waste of business, please ask another master, I really quit!" Cui Linqian stormed away angrily.
This time it's really gone.
Xue Na looked at Li Qinzai innocently: "Why are you so angry? Your father-in-law really doesn't know how to talk about business. The most important thing to talk about when talking about business is 'talk'. listen."
Li Qinzai sighed: "Forget it, let's leave it at that for today. If I say a few more words, I'm afraid that I will piss off my father-in-law. It doesn't matter if he is pissed to death. My mother-in-law has become an orphan..."
"Brother Jingchu, why don't we really switch to a personal partnership?"
Li Qinzai smiled: "Just wait, my father-in-law will come to talk to us calmly tomorrow. It's no wonder he is willing to let others have such a huge benefit."
