Chapter 113 Economic Crisis
"By the way, you haven't told me yet, when will the appreciation party of this Treasure Pavilion be held?"
"Don't worry! I was just about to tell you about this!
The appreciation meeting of Qinluanting Treasure Pavilion is held once a year, and the same is true for its auction.
It will still be half a year before the next appreciation meeting.
As for the auction, it will officially start three months after the appreciation meeting ends. "
"Why do we have to wait so long? The money we have on hand is about to bottom out!!
The remaining more than 1 gold coins are all prepared for the army's logistics.
It can be said that the two of us are absolutely paupers now! "
"Lao Li...are we so poor now?"
"Nonsense! Ever since we finalized the ship matter, we have been heavily in debt!
This money was finally obtained from He Suyi.
They are all used to ensure military logistics. Tell me, where do we have any extra money now?
Don't forget, we only paid a deposit for the ship!
We haven’t settled on the large sum of money for the final payment yet! "
“There’s no rush about the final payment of the boat~ There’s still an auction!
When the time comes, we will sell the junk in our hands and clear out the remaining balance. It will not be easy!
What we have to solve now is the current problem! We are away from home and don’t have any money in our hands. What a mistake! "
"Nonsense! Do you want to remind me? Am I not clear about this? Don't talk too far!
Just the yard we currently rent! The rent for the remaining few years is a big problem! ~”
"...Damn it, if you didn't mention this, I would have forgotten about it! There is also the saltpeter purchase contract we signed with the fireworks workshop!
Every year from now on, we have to prepare a large amount of silver every year, waiting to buy their saltpeter~
Now that I think about it, our current economic situation seems to be a bit broken! "
After hearing Wang Qingyang's words, Li Yu was stunned for a moment...
He had really forgotten the contract with the fireworks workshop outside Gulan City, and now Wang Qingyang suddenly reminded him of it.
In an instant, he felt that the burden on his shoulders was a little heavier, and his brain began to hurt violently...
The air in the courtyard suddenly became extremely quiet, and both of them were distressed by their current predicament.
After a long time, Wang Qingyang asked Li Yu in a low voice:
"How about we continue to make wine and sell it? To subsidize this huge hole?"
Li Yu glanced at him and refused:
"Are you crazy? You still make wine? Who on this continent doesn't know that those drinks come from Donglan County of Roujian Country?
We finally got away from that place. Do you want our whereabouts to be exposed to the public again?
Have you forgotten that someone was secretly investigating our affairs? "
"I haven't forgotten... It's just that in our current situation, we really need a lot of funds!
Apart from making money quickly by making wine, I really can’t think of any other way to accumulate wealth quickly. "
"I advise you to give up on this idea, it is too risky.
I don't want to expose our whereabouts for just a few hundred thousand gold.
There is a way after all, just let me think about it again. This money is not needed immediately.
We still have some buffer time. Today I will come up with a solution.
Don't worry about this. Just check how well their charts are drawn. "
"Okay, since you said so, I'll leave this matter to you."
"Okay, go ahead and do whatever you need to do, I'll go out for a while."
"Where are you going? Didn't you say you wanted to think of a solution?"
"I went out for a walk and stayed here for a while, but I couldn't think of a good solution.
If you go out and walk around, you might be able to come up with some clever ideas, maybe. "
"Okay, that's up to you. I'm going to catch up on some sleep, and I'll check on the progress of their chart drawing later."
After saying that, Wang Qingyang waved to Li Yu and then walked towards his wing.
Li Yu, on the other hand, walked straight out of the courtyard gate and walked slowly towards the west city.
Strolling on this bustling street, Li Yu's thoughts flowed rapidly.
He began to recall the past twenty years since arriving on this continent.
He and Wang Qingyang, who had nothing at the beginning, now possess unique skills and have hundreds of troops.
Perhaps only the two of them can understand the bitterness of the twists and turns they have experienced.
They do not belong to this world in the first place, and the reason why they came here is indeed out of their own control.
As the saying goes, a penny beats a hero. At this moment, Li Yu truly felt the true meaning of these words.
Although they still have various valuable "treasures" in their hands, these things cannot be realized immediately.
It takes time to operate slowly and eventually you can sell these things at a good price.
But now they are really penniless except for the more than 10,000 gold coins they defrauded from He Suyi.
Therefore, Li Yu must now come up with a way to quickly accumulate wealth in a short period of time.
There is still nearly half a year until the appreciation meeting of Qinluanting Treasure Pavilion begins. It is definitely too late to expect this.
It is really a huge problem to quickly accumulate tens of thousands of silver coins in just one or two months.
Even though Li Yu and Wang Qingyang are from another world, the technology and civilization they possess far exceeds that of this world.
But this does not change the current big problem of lack of funds for them.
Unless they can figure out some way to get rich quickly,
This question would have been bothering them before the Treasure Pavilion appreciation meeting began.
Thinking like this, Li Yu walked to Xicheng Street without knowing it.
Look at the bustling streets and the passers-by. He suddenly became distressed.
"Is there any way to make a lot of money in a short period of time?
This West City is the richest city in Kangle City. What these dignitaries are most in need of is money.
But I want to do something! How can we make these extremely rich guys willingly pay for it?
It is definitely not realistic to kill people and buy goods... There must be hidden dragons and crouching tigers in this Leisure City.
Maybe there are still many powerful warriors like He Suyi lurking in the darkness.
But in addition to killing people and buying goods, if you want to quickly obtain a lot of wealth in a short period of time,
There are so few paths to choose from! First of all, doing business is definitely not possible.
The money comes in too slowly, from R&D to production to sales. After this process is completed, the day lily is cold.
Releasing high-end weapons to attract buyers and obtain orders will not work.
Next, we have to spend a lot of time making weapons ourselves, and we are simply too busy.
What's more, if too many high-end weapons are released at once, it will easily impact the entire continent's market.
This will expose our current whereabouts and cause more unnecessary trouble.
As for cultural output such as selling lyrics and songs, the rate of return is too low, and it also comes with great risks.
Such brainwashing songs can easily be spread throughout the streets and alleys, and eventually be targeted by interested people.
Hey...it won't work this way, and that won't work either! so annoying! Unexpectedly, I am a great monk in the Nascent Soul Realm and a college student from a famous university in the 21st century.
Now he actually racks his brains and is helpless for this mere tens of thousands of silver taels.
It seems that the ancestors are not deceiving me! Engage in scientific research, engage in production, raise the army,
No matter what it is, it is a big money burner! Although I was mentally prepared,
But this reality still gave me a hard blow!
Fortunately, I was still conceited before, relying on the hundreds of thousands of gold saved by Yuan Xiuxiu,
It’s enough to keep us happy and happy for many years!
Unexpectedly, it has only been more than a year.
This huge sum of money has already been wiped out by me. Not only that,
I also incurred a large amount of foreign debt! If this momentum continues,
If we don’t have tens of millions of gold in hand, we really may not be able to continue to develop smoothly!
Doesn’t this force me to make this business bigger and stronger?
You want us two good liberal arts students to suddenly become warlord leaders...? ? ?
Forget it, forget it...I don’t want to think about this anymore. Find a place to sit down, have a cup of tea, and think about it slowly.
Anyway, I'm afraid I won't be able to come up with a result for a while. "
Thinking of this, Li Yu raised his head and looked around, thinking that in the streets of Xicheng,
Find a restaurant or teahouse facing the street, have a cup of tea and rest for a while.
He didn't want to go to Yamingxuan for tea. After all, his relationship with He Suyi was now an ally.
If He Suyi saw that he was actually worrying about money, he would definitely question the alliance between them.
Therefore, Li Yu deliberately avoided the street where Yamingxuan was located today.
We were walking on another busy street in Xicheng. Therefore, he is not very familiar with this place.
So I looked around, trying to find a restaurant or teahouse with a nice environment.
After some searching, Li Yu finally found a uniquely decorated building in the corner of the street.
This building is very elegantly decorated and can be easily recognized as a teahouse.
Although this teahouse, like Yamingxuan, is located in Xicheng, where land is extremely valuable.
However, the style of this teahouse is completely different from that of Yamingxuan run by He Suyi.
The teahouse run by He Suyi is extravagant, and the guests it receives are all the big shots from the wealthy families in the West City.
This teahouse is closer to life and takes a gentle and elegant approach.
The groups it serves tend to be literati with status and background.
Li Yu stopped and watched in front of the teahouse for a long time, still muttering:
“I didn’t expect that a teahouse of this style still exists in this West City.
It seems that the owner behind Yun Lai Pavilion is still a young man!
How could he open a teahouse with such elegant decoration in this prosperous West City?
There is really a feeling of being out of the mud but not stained! Huh, interesting...so interesting! ! "
With this in mind, Li Yu stepped into the teahouse called Yunlai Pavilion.
As soon as he entered the door, there was a woman dressed in white who bowed to him and said:
"This young master must be coming to our Yunlai Pavilion for the first time, right...?"
After listening to the girl's words, Li Yu nodded slightly and then said:
"This is indeed the first time that Li has come here, and he asked the girl to lead the way."
After confirming that the young master in front of me was coming to Yunlai Pavilion for the first time.
The woman in white bowed to Li Yu again, and then said in a slightly apologetic tone:
"I'm really sorry, please don't blame the young master. The little girl really cannot lead the way for the young master.
Sir, this is your first time here, so you may not know something. Our Yunlai Pavilion,
It has always only received friends and distinguished guests of the pavilion master. It has never been open to the public.
So, Master, you’d better please come back. "
After listening to this girl's explanation, Li Yu was immediately dumbfounded.
While carefully looking at the decoration in the pavilion, he whispered:
"Hey?? This is a membership system? Is it so trendy?
I suddenly became a little curious, who is the master of Yunlai Pavilion?
Could it be that this guy came from there just like us? "
Although he was murmuring softly, the movements of his feet did not stop.
Since this Yunlai Pavilion does not accept outsiders, it is naturally difficult for him to break in.
So he wisely exited the pavilion and walked out the door.
Since he couldn't drink this tea, he didn't plan to continue looking for a place to drink tea. He might as well just drink alcohol instead.
After having this idea, Li Yu immediately started to take action.
Sure enough, a place to drink wine is much easier to find than a place to drink tea.
After a while, Li found a good restaurant.
After arriving on the second floor of this restaurant, Li Yu asked Xiao'er for a box near the street.
After sitting down and ordering a few side dishes and two bottles of wine,
He began to carefully study the next countermeasures in his mind.
"Hey, although I have briefly outlined all the ways to make a fortune before,
But there are countless ways to make money, and I believe there will always be a way that suits our current situation.
The hobbies of rich people are just a few things. Want to make money,
You still have to start with their hobbies. "
Thinking of this, Li Yu began to list the things that these ancient wealthy gentry liked one by one.
I want to find opportunities to break the situation.
"Bortheaus, gambling houses, taverns, teahouses, art houses, treasure shops, cultural entertainment, calligraphy and painting, magic weapons and horses.
These are basically the things that these local tycoons like. To be honest, they are quite boring.
Wait... Wenwan calligraphy and painting, magic weapon treasure horse! ! "
Suddenly, Li Yu stood up from his chair as if he had discovered something terrible.
“I seem to have discovered a pretty incredible way to make money!!!
However, can the indigenous people in this world appreciate the artworks from our 21st century?
If they don't have this taste, then don't I have to work in vain?
But if they can appreciate it, then that’s how much money I want! How much money is there? ? "
