Chapter 417 Borrow money from merchants all over the world!
Just like the Foolish Old Man who moved mountains, generations of ancestors have remained determined.
Ying Gao knew that the royal family of Great Qin could do such a thing. After all, in order to unify the world and annex the six countries, the royal family of Great Qin fought for six generations.
Starting from Duke Xiao of Qin and continuing to the present day in the hands of the King of Qin, the Great Qin annexed the world and established the Great Qin Empire.
"Sir, we are here!"
There were many thoughts in his mind, but Ying Gao had already arrived outside the mansion before he could sort them all out.
"Um."
…
Back in the mansion, Ying Gao was lying on the Taishi chair, thinking about his next plan to make money. At this moment, he needed a way to make money as quickly as possible.
Glass!
Refined salt!
These are all methods, but it will take several months to really make money with this method. At least in the early stage, he still has to invest an amount.
This will be a fatal blow to Yinggao, which is already suffering from financial constraints and already running a deficit. It can be said to make matters worse.
Therefore, Ying Gao knew in his heart that it was best to be a free hand.
"Sir, are you worried?"
Fan Zeng's eyes flickered and he looked at Ying Gao, his eyes full of confusion. He knew very well that he had rarely seen Ying Gao like this since he came to Xianyang for so long.
A face full of sorrow must mean something is on your mind.
Hearing this, Ying Gao opened his eyes, looked at Fan Zeng and Meng Liao in front of him, and said: "Jiannan Chamber of Commerce and Peacock Chamber of Commerce are stretched thin, and students enrolling and maintaining the operation of Daqin Academy require a large amount of expenses."
"My father is preparing for war, and I'm afraid he doesn't have enough energy left. I'm thinking about how to get a lot of money, preferably with nothing!"
"Sir, just because we don't have one, it doesn't mean that everyone in the world doesn't have one. Especially the merchants all over the world seem to be severely suppressed by various countries, but their families are all very wealthy."
A glimmer of light appeared in the depths of Fan Zeng's eyes, and he turned towards Ying Gao and said: "Scholars, peasants, industry and merchants have strict hierarchies. If the young master gives merchants a chance, all their money and food will naturally flow into the Qin Dynasty."
"Yes, why did I forget this incident?"
Hearing this, Ying Gao sat up in shock. Fan Zeng's words made him suddenly enlightened.
The big businessmen of this era can be said to be truly wealthy. For example, Bashu Ba Shi can be said to have accumulated wealth over several generations, making them rich enough to rival the country.
"Tie Ying, make an appointment with Bashi!"
Ying Gao looked at Tie Ying with a deep gaze and said, "We will make an appointment until tomorrow at the previous Ba's Restaurant."
"promise."
With a nod of agreement, Tie Ying turned around and left. Ying Gao pondered for a moment. He knew in his heart that it was not a good thing to look for Bashi like this without any evidence.
This matter, after all, needs a reason.
National debt!
The issuance of national bonds needs the support of Yingzheng this time, otherwise it will not work at all. He does not want to do anything that provokes the royal power and the bottom line of Yingzheng.
At present, the only solution he can think of is to issue national bonds and then promote education. As for when to pay back the money, Ying Gao has not thought about it.
He is the leader of the Qin Dynasty, and merchants can only bow their heads.
The thought flashed in my mind that national debt was originally created to raise military expenses. During wartime, military expenditures were huge. When there was no other way to raise funds, funds were raised through the issuance of war treasury bonds.
Issuing war treasury bonds is a common method used by governments in wartime and is also the earliest origin of national debt.
The second step is to balance fiscal revenue and expenditure. Generally speaking, balancing fiscal revenue and expenditure can be done by increasing taxes, issuing more currency or issuing national bonds.
In addition, in order to raise construction funds, the country must carry out infrastructure and public facilities construction.
This requires a large amount of medium and long-term funds. By issuing medium- and long-term treasury bonds, part of the short-term funds can be converted into medium- and long-term funds for the construction of large-scale national projects to promote economic development.
…
This time, Ying Gao's plan is the last one, using national debt to prepare education funds.
There is no other way to do this. If we don't do this, Daqin's educational career, which has finally improved, will come to an abrupt end again.
As soon as he thought about it, Ying Gao took up his pen and wrote down the word "national debt". Then he suddenly made a plan, and it quickly came into being in Ying Gao's mind.
…
After a silent night, Ying Gao woke up the next morning and the sun was rising.
"Young Master, Ba Shi has already made an appointment!" Tie Ying said in a deep voice towards Ying Gao: "Ba Shi has said that as long as the young master informs you before going, he will definitely arrive in advance."
"Um."
Ying Gao nodded slightly and said to Tie Ying, "Contact Sima Shi to find out how many big merchants there are in Da Qin!"
"Population, family property, and business operations are all recorded clearly!"
"My subordinate understands!"
Nodding in reply, Tie Ying knew clearly that Ying Gao had set his sights on the merchants in the Qin Dynasty. As a result, the merchants in the world would have to shed their skin even if they did not die.
However, there is no other way. He has never seen a person or force who was targeted by Ying Gao and still completely retreated.
Ying Gao still had a good impression of Bashi and the Bashu clan in Bashu. After all, they had always had a good relationship and even cooperated with each other.
Therefore, this matter can only be taken by Bashi.
Moreover, every merchant who cooperates with the Jiannan Chamber of Commerce and the Peacock Chamber of Commerce needs to take the lead, otherwise, the fate between them may be over.
"Meng Liao, send someone to Jing Yu and Shang Yang's house and ask them to come and see me!" After a moment of silence, Ying Gao once again said to Meng Liao who was standing aside.
In the entire Qin Dynasty, the Ba family alone could not solve Ying Gao's current predicament at all. Only the major merchants who cooperated with the two major chambers of commerce could all contribute to allow Ying Gao to complete the measure of issuing national debts.
"promise."
Nodding in agreement, Meng Liao turned and left.
…
Half an hour later, Jing Yu and Shang Yang arrived at the mansion. They quickly raised their hands to Ying Gao and said, "I have seen the young master!"
"sit!"
With a wave of his hand, Ying Gao motioned for the two of them to sit down. Ying Gao pointed to the tea on the long table and said, "Pour it yourself. I have come to you with some instructions!"
"promise."
Nodding in agreement, Jing Yu and Shang Yang looked at each other, quickly took their seats, and poured a cup of tea for themselves and Ying Gao. Jing Yu just said to Ying Gao.
"Please give me your orders, Master!"
"How long can the Jiannan Chamber of Commerce and the Peacock Chamber of Commerce be able to support themselves now?" Ying Gao only knew a little about the two major chambers of commerce. He had heard Shang Yang talk about it, saying that they were stretched thin, but he didn't know the details.
"Sir, the Peacock Chamber of Commerce is doing better. It has a share of the West Sea Salt Lake, but the Jiannan Chamber of Commerce can no longer make ends meet. If this continues, even if Jiannanchun is very profitable, the Jiannan Chamber of Commerce will collapse overnight."
Jing Yu's eyes were as bright as a torch, and he knew in his heart that although the Jiannan Chamber of Commerce made a lot of money every day, the amount of money the Jiannan Chamber of Commerce made every day far exceeded the amount of money it made.
