When Chen Xi held an alliance meeting again the next day, the Zhen family's welcome guest had been replaced by Zhen Yan. It was obvious that the Zhen family was ready to be the tallest among the dwarfs. Now there was no need to worry about whether it was the first wife who gave birth to the child.
, at least in terms of blood relationship, Zhen Yan is the closest to Zhen Yi.
"I've met Marquis Chen!" Zhen Yan bowed and said in a neither humble nor overbearing manner. He didn't appear to be very reserved. Should it be said that the Zhen family had anticipated that such a day would come?
"Bo Yao, congratulations." Chen Xi cupped his hands with a smile on his face. Zhen Yan is slightly older than him, but if he becomes the head of the family, he will inherit the Zhen family's suspended imperial titles and two thousand stone official positions.
"Marquis Chen is joking." Zhen Yan shook his head slightly and said, but there was not much worry on his face, and his slightly lowered eyelids clearly showed his mood.
"Work hard. As long as you work steadily and don't touch certain taboos, the Zhen family will reach another peak in your hands. You don't need to care about the length of the moment. Time will prove what you do." Chen Xi smiled at him.
Zhen Yan said.
To be honest, the current situation of the Zhen family, even if Liu Bei and Chen Xi did not exist, they would still be a wealthy family in the world, and they would still be one of the top five wealthy businessmen in the world, not to mention that the Zhen family now has a very strong backer.
"Marquis Chen is joking. He is just a nobody. How can he have any ambitions? Just keep the current foundation and make the Zhen family stronger. That is what the descendants of the Zhen family do." Zhen Yan smiled.
He said with a smile.
Chen Xi glanced at Zhen Yan. Although the Zhen family was a bit of a scam, they still had good vision. If Zhen Yan wanted to do big things, he would definitely not be able to do anything big. He was seriously lacking in courage, but he was very self-aware.
But for the current Zhen family, nothing is as important as having a self-aware patriarch. After all, the Zhen family is not even in the entrepreneurial or pioneering period. They only need to keep their business.
"I should be the last one to come." Chen Xi stopped asking about the Zhen family and walked slowly towards the inner hall. Zhen Yan also followed Chen Xi step by step.
Before Chen Xi entered the door, he saw Zhen Mi sitting in the main seat with his eyes closed, but he didn't say anything. Anyway, he had developed a thick skin, which at least the heads of these aristocratic families would not be able to tell.
the thoughts in his mind.
After Zhen Yan entered with Chen Xi, he sat in the second position from the left hand. As for the first position, he wanted to sit in the first position, but he couldn't resist Yuan Shu's move, so he, the host, could only sit in the second position.
When Chen Xi came over, Zhen Mi stood up to greet him, and then sat down with Chen Xi again without making too many moves. However, she didn't have to do anything today. She no longer had to represent the Zhen family.
"You don't need to talk about what happened yesterday. It takes a certain amount of time to pay attention. So today we will only discuss a few things. One thing is that we plan to mint coins. Of course, this matter has little to do with everyone here, because
We are going to mint five baht coins." Chen Xi said slowly after sitting down, he just needs to be informed about the minting of coins.
There were obviously whispers in the audience. If you were to mint five baht coins in real terms, you would not need to inform anyone at all. Even in the Han Dynasty, if you minted heavy coins, the country would not only not stop you, but would also support you in doing this to benefit the country.
Things that benefit the people, who makes the Han Dynasty lack good coins?
Chen Xi didn't care about the whispers of this group of people. The matter of minting coins was just a notification. The most important thing was the second thing.
"The second thing is about the bank's distribution of goods. You all know the convenience of the bank now. For large-amount transactions, if it is direct payment or barter, there is a security problem. Of course, there is also a transportation problem. ." Chen Xi said with a touch of coldness on his face.
"In Qing, Xu, Yu, Yan and Hebei, we hope that we will solve this problem on our own, but we are doing business with you, but you are unable to withdraw funds because there is no bank." Chen Xi said with a hesitant look.
In fact, this problem has always been there. The Wu family's business is mainly in Yizhou and Liangzhou. It is very troublesome to pay directly to transport it back during settlement. It is impossible to do business without paying directly. It can be said that bill settlement is very difficult for the Wu family. Planting an industry is not very necessary for families here.
"Chen Houzhi's words are indeed reasonable, but it's not because we don't want to lay it out, but because even a family like ours, which is famous for its wealth, cannot build a complete bank system." Wu Yuan moved her lips lightly and said slowly, The most important thing about this alliance for the Wu family is to decide on the establishment of a bank.
"To be precise, it's not that it can't be built, but that it can't be spread out, or that there is no way to ensure that the families who come to exchange money can exchange large amounts of money." Wu Yuan had obviously thought about this problem, "Similarly , I'm very curious. Normally, Chen Hou has spent countless money on construction, so he shouldn't have any spare money to build a complete bank system."
"Miss, you don't need to know how I did it." Chen Xi said with a smile, "You just need to know that to some extent, ten million dollars for me to spend may be more effective than the dowry worth over 100 million dollars."
Money can only produce economic effects when it flows. The more industries that ten million dollars flow through, the greater the value it brings. If you use credit currency, it actually has no value in itself. It just separates each one. The industries are connected in series and revitalized. What truly creates value is these industries and the people who pay for these industries. The value of credit currency itself is just paper!
Of course, although the weight of money is not that exaggerated, there is not much difference in essence. The money flows around in everyone's hands, revitalizing all industries, and then flows back to Chen Xi's hands. It is essentially an intermediary, and then Chen Xi harvests it on time. Just value.
"To be honest, I really want to teach these to others, but unfortunately my apprentice and another good friend of mine don't seem to be very talented in this area." Chen Xi smoothly brought the topic aside.
As Chen Xi's disciple, Lu Xun was very good in domestic affairs and military affairs, but he was not talented in economics. As for Zhuge Liang, he was an all-rounder and a generalist, but his understanding of money itself had errors, and he was also not suitable. Zhuge Liang was more suitable. To coordinate the overall situation.
From a historical perspective, the person most suitable to learn from Chen Xi should actually be Liu Ba. After all, he is the one who has the best understanding of money and economics in history. He is not the one who uses policy means to make violent adjustments like Zhuge Liang and Xun Yu. Business economics, but starting from the inside of business.
It's a pity that this person in the history of the Three Kingdoms hated Liu Bei the most and at the same time admired Cao Cao the most. However, this unlucky boy avoided Liu Bei again and again. As a result, he did not escape after so many times and was killed by Zhuge Liang. After being blocked, he was forced to help Liu Bei solve his biggest economic problem.
