Chapter 409 Shenghua seven-year annual report, Dali Central Bank
Dali Kyoto, Shengtian Hall.
Qin Wei looked at the memorial in front of him and nodded with satisfaction.
This is Shenghua's seven-year annual report, which has just been submitted by the Cabinet and the Military Aircraft Department.
It can be said that the seven years of Shenghua were the most important years for Dali's development.
First of all, in terms of internal affairs, the four Linghuang states needless to say, are definitely more prosperous than before, and the focus of Shenghua's seven years is on the four Yuluo islands and Haizhou, which governs three thousand miles of sea area.
This is the third year that Dali has taken control of the Four Yuluo Islands, and it is also the third year that Dali has moved from the Linghuang Land to the Four Yuluo Islands.
Within three years, Dali moved nearly ten million officials and people from the Linghuang Land to the Four Yuluo Islands.
By now, Dali has completed the shift of focus.
Most of Dali's main industries such as the shipyard and the mechanical beast manufacturing factory have been moved to the four Yuluo Islands.
Of course, this does not mean that the Spiritual Wasteland has lost these industries, it is just that the focus of the industry has shifted. In fact, the previous industries in the Spiritual Wasteland still have great productivity and continue to manufacture.
The advantage of shifting the industrial focus is that it allows Dali to absorb more resources from Qiongtian Sea Area and improve its industrial level faster.
Up to now, Dali's mechanism manufacturing is the best in several surrounding sea areas, and Dali's shipbuilding level is also ahead of Yaoyao.
At the same time, alchemy, formations, weapon refining, etc. are all different from what they were in the past.
Perhaps the current Dali is not as good as the Giant Spirit Dynasty in all aspects, but it has surpassed the Hundred Stars Dynasty in all aspects.
And in some special aspects, Dali also surpassed the Dynasty of Giant Spirits, such as the psychic cannon.
It can be said that Dali is now the most powerful force in several sea areas such as the Yuluo Sea, the Spiritual Sea, the Jingtao Sea, and the Beichen Sea, and the most comprehensive and powerful force in various cultivation industries.
In addition, it is also the richest force.
Now Qin Wei is fully qualified to say that Dali is the richest dynasty in several surrounding sea areas.
Because Dali now owns three undersea spiritual stone mines, two undersea spiritual iron mines and six other rare spiritual metal mines.
Moreover, Qin Wei also had seventy-three spiritual plants in his hands.
When it comes to minerals and spiritual plants alone, even the Giant Spirit Dynasty may not have more than Dali.
Undersea mining has brought countless wealth to Dali, and it has also made Dali no longer lack resources as before.
Today's Yuluo Islands are simply extremely wealthy.
From the imperial court to the common people, everyone has a surplus of wealth, and Qin Wei, as the emperor, has countless wealth.
However, although Dali's focus has completely shifted to the four Yuluo Islands, the development of the four Linghuang states has not stopped.
In the past, the main products of the Spiritual Wasteland were warships, mechanical beasts, crossbows and other military equipment, but now Dali has built a large number of shipyards and mechanism manufacturing factories on the four islands of Yuluo, turning the products that used to belong to the Spiritual Wasteland into
The whole market was taken over.
It stands to reason that there is no need to continue manufacturing warships and machine beasts in the Spiritual Wasteland, but in fact, the warship and machine manufacturing factories there have not stopped working, and are even expanding in scale.
If you can't sell it to Qiongtian Sea Territory, then sell it to Haizhou and other forces in the Spiritual Wasteland.
Dali's business territory is not only expanding towards the western sea area of Qiongtian, but also towards the Land of the Spiritual Emperor and the Linghuang Sea Area.
Now the warships and mechanical beasts from the four states of Dali have even been sold to the Peacock Dynasty, which is eight thousand miles away from Dali.
For this reason, the revenue of the shipyards and machine manufacturing factories in the four prefectures of Shenghua in the seventh year of Shenghua increased by 30% compared to the sixth year of Shenghua, but the profits dropped by 30%.
This is also a normal situation. The Land of Spiritual Wasteland is the Land of Spiritual Wasteland, and no matter what, it cannot be compared with the Qiongtian Sea Territory.
But no matter what, the development of the four Linghuang states is still very good.
Qin Wei roughly calculated the fiscal expenditure and income of the imperial court last year, and found that the fiscal expenditure and income of the imperial court last year had reached a balanced level.
The amount of money left in the court now is basically the same as the amount of money he allocated to the court from the inner treasury last year.
This is the first time. You must know that Qin Wei used to transfer money from the inner treasury to the court.
Now that the imperial court's finances can maintain a balance, this means that Qin Wei will no longer need to defer to the imperial court in the future.
As for the military, Dali lost a lot of troops and generals in the battle in the stormy waters. Currently, the four major naval divisions are still expanding their forces, so the situation is a bit complicated.
The first was the eight army corps, with the strength of each corps reduced to 100,000.
Next are the four major naval divisions. After the expansion is completed, the strength of each naval division will reach 250,000, which means a total of one million naval divisions.
In addition, there will be 300,000 imperial troops in Dali Kyoto and 100,000 garrison troops in each state.
In other words, the total strength of Dali's army will remain at around three million in the future.
For the whole of Dali, this kind of force is actually not too much. After all, Dali's territory is too big now.
The four Linghuang states, plus the Haizhou in the 3,000-mile sea area, and the four Yuluo islands, span more than 12,000 miles from east to west.
Nowadays, the vast territory and sea areas naturally require enough troops to be guarded.
However, Qin Wei did not intend to continue to expand the army. Even if it expanded the army, it would only continue to expand the size of the four major naval divisions or add new naval divisions, but would not increase the strength of the army corps and garrison.
In Qin Wei's view, there are no longer many troops in the army, and currently, except for the Giant Spirit Dynasty, other forces cannot pose a threat to Dali at all.
The Juling Dynasty and Juling Dali's territory are too far away, and it is impossible to attack Dali's territory, so there is no need to increase the strength of the army legion and garrison.
Therefore, the task set by Qin Wei for the Military Aircraft Department was to train elite naval forces and improve the navy's armaments.
The first psychic cannon manufacturing factory that Duan Haichao is responsible for has been built and will be put into production soon.
By then, Dali will have a large number of psychic cannons, the warships of the four major naval divisions will also be updated, and even Dali's combat methods will be completely reformed in the future.
In Qin Wei's view, a side-to-side battle is too cumbersome, and a salvo of ten thousand guns is the way he wants to fight.
If Dali can create a flying boat, then the way of fighting will be reformed again.
Even Qin Wei has thought about a large air carrier, a small fighting airship, a medium bombing airship, etc.
Dali directly abandoned the warships at sea and fully entered the era of air combat.
Thinking that Dali would have thousands of flying boats in the future, Qin Wei couldn't help but look forward to it.
However, these expectations of his are still just delusions for Dali at present.
If the flying boat was so easy to manufacture, it would not be the most high-end war weapon in the Qiongtian Sea.
…
Putting down the memorial in his hand, Qin Wei leaned back on his chair and fell into deep thought.
Even if it is a delusion to build a flying boat, he will not give up.
Just because it can't be manufactured now doesn't mean it won't be possible in the future.
However, Qin Wei had to make some preparations in advance for making the flying boat.
The flying boat is the product of the highest level of weapon refining and magic circle in Qiongtian Sea. With Dali's current level of weapon refining and magic circle, there is still a long way to go before he can build a flying boat.
And if you want to improve the level of Dali and the magic circle, it is not something that can be accomplished in a short time. It requires a long-term investment of manpower and resources.
Currently, Dali already has the Weapon Refining Association and the Formation Association, and the level of these two industries is gradually improving.
But in order to achieve a big leap, Dali still needs to draw nutrients from the outside world.
And this outside world must be outside the western sea area, that is, the central sea area or the eastern sea area of Qiongtian.
"We can't continue to live alone. We must make arrangements in advance to prepare for Dali to enter the central sea and eastern sea!"
Thinking of this, Qin Wei murmured in a low voice.
He is now eager to deploy in the central sea area.
However, the power of Luowang is now a bit weak, and it is difficult to achieve results in the central sea area.
The central sea area of Qiongtian is different from the western sea area. Let alone ordinary warriors, even second-level practitioners of the Divine Realm like Zhao Gao and Yuan Tiangang are not considered strong in the central sea area.
The top experts in the middle part are cultivators who are above the Heavenly Mind Realm, and those who can be called strong must have the cultivation level of the fourth level of the Divine Mind Realm or half-step of the Heavenly Mind Realm.
Previously, Qin Wei wanted to summon a new chess piece character to enhance Luo Wang's strength.
But he didn't expect to summon the Wine Sword Immortal.
The Drunken Swordsman is not suitable for leading a trap.
As for everyone else!
Wuming, Ye Gucheng and Xiao Yicai are also not suitable.
The characters and conduct of Wuming and Ye Gucheng are definitely not suitable for the snare.
On the contrary, Xiao Yicai is actually very suitable, but the Formation Association cannot do without Xiao Yicai, and Xiao Yicai cannot be limited to the trap.
As for Tongxin Taoist, it definitely won't work. It's not that Qin Wei doesn't trust him, but the net is too important, and Qin Wei can only let the chess pieces control it.
There seems to be only one hero left.
Xiongba is ruthless, far-sighted, and thoughtful, so it would be appropriate for him to lead the snare.
As for the Enshrined Courtyard, it can be left to Xiao Yicai to take charge. Anyway, there is not much going on in the Enshrined Courtyard.
After Qin Wei thought about this clearly, he summoned Eunuch Lu and asked him to draft an imperial edict.
Xiongba enters the net and assumes the position of leader.
Xiao Yicai was promoted to the dean of the Enshrinement Institute, and he oversaw all the affairs of the Enshrinement Institute.
Qin Wei will also discuss specific matters with Xiong Ba in detail.
After arranging these, Qin Wei stood up and stretched.
"Xiao Shunzi, is there anything else?"
"Reply to Your Majesty, there is a message from the Emperor of Yue!" Xiao Shunzi said.
Qin Wei came out from behind the desk and said, "Take it and take a look!"
Afterwards, Xiao Shunzi handed him the letter from the Emperor of Vietnam.
After Qin Wei read it, he said somewhat speechlessly: "This guy is relying on our Dali!"
"Your Majesty, what does the Emperor of Vietnam want to do?" Xiao Shunzi asked curiously.
Qin Wei shook his head and said, "What else can I do? I need money, food, and people!"
Qin Wei was not surprised by this. He knew the situation of the Dai Viet Dynasty clearly.
In fact, the Sky Alliance has provided a lot of supplies to the Dai Viet Dynasty before, otherwise the Dai Viet Dynasty would not be able to persist even now.
Although Dali is very wealthy today, Qin Wei cannot provide various resources to the Dayue Dynasty in vain.
It's enough to send a large army to support. After all, the Giant Spirit Dynasty is also Dali's enemy, and the Sky Alliance also has an offensive and defensive alliance.
Qin Wei thought for a while and said: "Go and recruit Qi Chao!"
"Here!" Xiao Shunzi responded and immediately arranged for someone to summon Qi Chao.
In the Qi Dynasty, he was the president of the Central Bank of Dali, with the same official position as minister of various ministries.
Before Qin Wei ascended the throne, while still in power in Shuzhou, the Qi Dynasty took refuge with Qin Wei and helped Shen Wansan establish the foundation of the Royal Chamber of Commerce.
Later, Qin Wei ascended the throne, and the Qi Dynasty was appointed governor of the Central Bank of Dali by Qin Wei.
At first, the Central Bank was only responsible for minting silver coins. However, as the Central Bank continued to expand, its branches have now been spread across every county in Dali, making a considerable contribution to the economic development within Dali.
Not only that, Dali Central Bank has now established many branches outside Dali. The major forces in the spiritual sea area, including the Hundred Stars Dynasty, Ice and Snow Island, etc., all have Dali Central Bank branches.
The bank notes of Dali Central Bank are universal within the entire Sky Alliance.
Because of the existence of Dali Central Bank and the trading activities of the Royal Chamber of Commerce, many forces within the Sky Alliance have now accepted Dali's silver coins.
Of course, Dali's silver coins are not yet comparable to Wanhuang silver coins, but having so many people willing to accept Dali silver coins is of great benefit to Dali.
One silver dollar is exchanged for one tael of silver, and for every outflow of one silver dollar, the central bank can obtain a gross profit of two taels of silver.
So now the central bank is minting silver dollars like crazy.
After about two-quarters of an hour, Qi Chao hurriedly arrived at Shengtian Hall.
"This servant pays homage to Your Majesty!" Qi Chao said on his knees.
Although he is the governor of the Central Bank and holds the same official position as minister of various ministries, he is still a eunuch.
"Forgive me!" Qin Wei said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"I have something for you to do!"
"Please give me your Majesty's orders!"
Qin Wei said: "The Dai Viet Dynasty is short of money and food, but we cannot give them money and food in vain, so I thought of a way to lend some money to the Dai Viet Dynasty in the name of the Central Bank."
It is definitely impossible to give them away for free. Even if Qin Wei wanted to help the Dayue Dynasty, he could not give them anything for free.
However, there is no problem with borrowing money. If you borrow money, you will always have to pay it back.
The central bank also has external lending business, but this is the first time it has given a loan to a dynasty.
"Your Majesty, how much do you need to borrow this?" Qi Chao asked nervously.
Qin Wei spread his hands and said, "This is your business. How much you can borrow depends on the collateral, right?"
Qi Chao was startled.
Collateral!
This is true.
But to provide a loan to a dynasty, what kind of collateral should be used?
Seeing that Qi Chao didn't understand, Qin Wei coughed lightly and said: "The current situation of the Dai Viet Dynasty is very bad. They don't have much collateral that they can take out, but the Yue Emperor still has an imperial treasure in his hands!"
This is not because Qin Wei wants the imperial treasure of the Yue Emperor, but because the Yue Dynasty really has nothing to pledge.
city!
Dayue is willing to give it, but Dali is not willing to take it!
Lingzhi!
It seems that the Dai Viet Dynasty did not exist either!
Other treasures are okay, but it depends on the specific value.
When Qi Chao heard about the imperial treasure, he immediately became energetic.
"Slave understands!"
"Well, it's good that you understand! Time is tight, you can go directly to the Supervisor of Ceremonies and use the communication array to communicate with them! After reaching the preliminary intention, we will arrange for people to go to Qinghuan Sea Area." Qin Weidao.
