"For example, we have a new unit of weight and measure. The emergence of this unit can solve many problems for us. Currently, our domestic railway standards are okay to build railways, but Zhao Guo and South Korea have their railway standards. It’s hard to say ∵ inch, such a small unit has caused a lot of difficulties because of the different standards of the two sides. Although it is currently based on Qin’s standards, but in the future, this cannot be guaranteed. If we have a brand new unit, This unit comes from a recognized thing, I think this problem can be solved very well." Shang Wen said to everyone.

1965 North of Liaodong

What Shang Wen is talking about is some new weights and measures. In fact, it is to implement a brand new weights and measures. The Qin State has not launched the unified currency at present. The reason is that the implementation of the unified currency will usher in even bigger problems. The currency system is extremely chaotic. Because, in the old paper money system, there is a unit of gold, but in the new body system, there is no gold, and there are examples of metal currency widely used in various countries. The effect of banknotes is better. There is a certain demand for the existence of gold units, because there is a certain link between gold and the metal currency used, so that in settlement, it can be settled very well. If it is stuffed all at once, it will be inconvenient. Settlement is of great help to the stability of Qin's paper currency system, so Qin did not implement a unified currency. ? Text? But weights and measures are different.All countries have their own weights and measures, although the Qin State has a wider influence. For example, in terms of weights and measures, everyone uses the Qin State’s standards and then converts them into their own country’s weights and measures to understand. This is more troublesome, especially in engineering. When the project expands, such an impact is particularly large, and many habitual things cannot be corrected all at once.Therefore, Qin urgently needs a new weights and measures.

Unifying weights and measures is also the idea of ​​Shang Wen and King Qin, but in fact, it still exists in all countries.Compulsory implementation is relatively difficult. The solution that Shangwen thought of was to implement a new standard, and everyone should abide by this standard. Therefore, Shangwen thought of Mi.The unit of meter comes from astronomical measurement, and Shangwen thought of using such a well-founded standard to implement it.This is fair to everyone.

However, the current development of astronomy still needs a certain amount of time, at least after the geographical discovery. However, Shang Wen is still a little worried about the current expansion. The speed of expansion looks fast on the surface, but it is actually very slow.There are many problems.Shangwen still needs a lot of investment to solve it concretely.

The states of Qin State.

"There are currently many city banks in Qin State, with many names and strange ones. For example, I have heard of Scanning Huangsha Bank, Huangsha Commercial Bank, etc." Li Li nodded and said.

"Well. There is no way. Many of our towns are named according to geography." Lu Shao beside Li Li replied.He is from Qi, but he is the mayor of Huangshi Town and the chairman of Huangshi Town Bank. He established Huangshi Town Bank by himself, but the bank's current financial situation is very bad.Heavy loans from railroads put Yellowstone in trouble.If he can't continue to provide more funds, then the bank will stagnate and will eventually have to be merged.It was the last thing Lu Shao wanted to see.

"We can inject quite a lot of capital. More importantly, your banking business will have check business. In this way, Jianhui can greatly solve your capital flow problem." Li Li said.He was sent by Wenyang Bank to negotiate. Wenyang Bank has already ruled out a large number of commercial banks and city banks that can annex the various states of Qin State, and incorporated them into the system of each state of Wenyang Bank. , there are only business connections, there are very few mergers, but now, mergers are starting to increase, because many banks have mortgaged their shares to the Federal Bank Reserve Board.They got a lot of money, and the solution to the funding problem made their expansion add up again. Wenyang Bank is like this. On the one hand, they put their main target on foreign countries, and a large amount of capital is exported. With their funding, A large number of factories were established in various countries.On the other hand, they set their sights on those town banks that have just been established and have not yet fully grown. This is a good way for Qin to mobilize private capital in order to prosper the financial market, but their development requires too much time and too much money. A lot of business has accumulated.

Most of these federal states of Qin State are immigrant states of Qin State. They come from the Kanto countries, South Korea, Zhao State, Wei State, Chu State, Qi State, and Yan State in the north, etc. People from these countries have gone through hardships. It is easy to gather in the state of Qin. Among them, some have just settled down, and some have followed the expansion of the state of Qin to get rich, established a large number of farms, pastures, and sold slaves.As well as making various commodities in the Western Regions. Now, Qin State is actively opening up the Western Regions. Qin State needs to open railways, and some people have entered the financial system. However, this system will take some time. The Guanzhong banking system, which is one step ahead, is the first to occupy local state banking system.

"Currently I know that you lack a lot of money that you need more than ever before, railroad companies, and steel companies, they need prospecting, laying rails, etc. and these require a lot of workers, salaries, funds, etc. Wait, these are businesses that can make a lot of money in the future. But you have no money, no funds to continue to support them like this. We have." Li Li said.

"However, I still want to protect the independence of our bank." Lu Shao said to Li Li.

"No, no, this is a matter of win-win cooperation. Think about it, your bank's competitiveness. There are many such competitive relationships. At present, many banks are doing this. If your bank goes bankrupt, the situation will be very bad. Your credit, what matters is your property." Li Li persuaded.

"I heard that Mr. Lu's wealth is not easy to come by. I know this very well." Li Li said.

"Slave trading, arms smuggling, how much money can such a business make. Later, gold mines were mined, and this was the scale it is today. To be honest, such a scale is very difficult for us. However, it is useless ’” said Lily.

"These businesses are not as good as Qin's banking business, the money business that banks do." Li Li continued.

"Currently, I know that your bank is very small. It is very uncompetitive. In this kind of competition, you are easily defeated. For example, at present, if I run too much, what will the consequences be?" Li Li threaten.

"The Federal Bank Reserve Committee will consider your bank's capital capacity. At the same time, in order to solve the stability of Qin's banking system, I think your bank may be taken over and then merged. At that time, the assets accumulated with great difficulty will become It’s really hard enough.” Li Li continued.

Hear here.Lu Shao felt nervous all of a sudden, you know, this is the property he saved with great difficulty, if it suddenly becomes someone else's property, he will commit suicide.

"You guys, how much money do you contribute?" At this time, Lu Shao asked.

"You only have [-]% of the population. From the current point of view, your bank does not have enough funds to deal with the current situation. [-]% of the population is enough." Li Li said.

"It's too little. This is a blatant robbery." Lu Shao shouted loudly.

"No. It's a win-win situation. In the current situation, you can't even catch two people. If this continues, you won't be able to survive at all," Li Li said.

"Besides, your [-]% members have a much larger capital scale. If this continues, you will get more." Li Li said.

"Yeah." Young Master Lu nodded.He was a little helpless.What the other party said is all based on the fact that what banks are most afraid of at present is the depletion of funds, the backwardness of operation methods, and the concentration of a large number of loans. In addition, there are many problems. This series of problems finally led to a The problem, the problem is.They don't have enough money to get through this difficult time.

"Okay." Lu Shao said helplessly.

"I agree to your terms, [-]%, let's make [-]%." Lu Shao nodded as he said.And the same thing is happening in various states. The town banks in each state have been divided up from the Guanzhong area, especially the major banks in Xianyang. Because the infrastructure in the Western Regions is extremely weak, it will require a lot of funds to build it. Qin's financial problem is very huge.These are no longer what various city banks and town banks can afford, and the investment in railways is too much for these scattered towns to solve.This is something beyond their tolerance. Perhaps, several town banks and city banks can solve this problem, but as far as the current situation is concerned, Qin's town banks are unable to complete such a task.

"I have an idea." Yingyu looked at the submitted report, Wenyang Bank of Qin State has merged many town banks in various states, and it was recognized as, or merged with, or directly merged to become Wenyang One branch of the bank, the town bank in that town, simply disappeared.There are too many such reports.This has already made Ying Yu lose interest.

"These town banks are too scattered." Ying Yu said to Xiao He.

"If you want to solve the current capital problem of the railway company, the only way is to pool funds. We might as well pool the funds of several town banks and establish a state bank. In this way, the scale and capacity of the bank can be expanded, and town banks, We can better concentrate on solving their local fund use problems." Ying Yu said.

"The chairman is right." Xiao He thought for a while and said.

"When the town bank was first established, the prime minister's idea may be to solve the problem of local capital use. For example, the agricultural exhibition, or the local factory, the main purpose is to solve the local capital problem, but the emergence of the railway company has passed these problems. The affordability of town banks. Originally, they only solved some small-scale local funding problems. If a state bank is established, the funds of several banks can be concentrated to solve several current large projects. If the project is large, such as Cross-state railway projects, highway projects, and several state banks are united. Then add Guanzhong, and we Wenyang Bank will take joint action, so that the situation can be won.” Xiao He said.

"Yes. That's right. I still remember that Shangwen said at the beginning that the construction of the railway company may be controlled by us investment banks. Why, because the railway company has only one way to solve the funding problem, mortgage them If the deadline expires, we will sell the shares, or we will absorb a considerable number of shares. In this way, we can finally achieve the goal of controlling the railway.” Ying Yu said.

"Well. That's right, this is what we should care about. I think it's feasible." Xiao He said.

"Well. Let's do it now. If we can control a bank in a state, let's try it." Ying Yu said.

"Chairman, the Royal Bank is also involved. Their ideas are the same as ours. They occupy the same shares as us." Xiao He said at this time.

"Well. Do as you said, I don't care about this matter anymore." Ying Yu said.

In a hotel opened by people from the state of Qin in the south of Handan, Zhao state.

"Royal Steel stocks are available for sale." A Xuan shouted loudly.As for Chi, many people raised their hands one after another, expressing their willingness to buy. Although this is a hotel, there are no other things in the lobby except tables and stools.People gathered together densely.

"Shuo, 25 gold." Xuan shouted loudly.

"25 gold, it's cheap." The crowd said one after another.In their view, this is a pretty cheap stock.Moreover, it is certain that you will be able to make money after you buy it.As for the royal iron and steel, they already know that there are several large iron smelting boilers outside Handan City, where a large amount of molten iron is melted and poured into iron ingots.These iron ingots were transported to the state of Qin by train, and then made into rails, guns, and so on, all of which are necessary for people.It can be said that buying shares is equivalent to having a guaranteed income from droughts and floods.

In fact, the stock is divided into two. The original price of one share was as high as more than 50 gold per share, but it was dismantled into half a share. It is easy to buy stocks. After all, there are not too many rich people in Zhao Guo, and it is the greatest ability to be able to make a few gold at once.If the shares are dismantled, they can be sold easily. If they are sold directly for a penny, they may not be sold. This is also caused by the actual situation of Zhao Guo.

"25 gold, it's cheap. I heard that some people bought it for 25 gold. If you add the dividend, you can't make much money at all. If you buy it for [-] gold, we can earn at least four or five gold. Four and five gold, with this kind of money, even if you kill and set fire, you may not be able to earn so much in one day." A young man said anxiously.

"25 gold, I want it." As soon as the young man finished speaking, he quickly raised his hand, and then ran over there to pay the money.

"25 gold dot three." At this time Xuan shouted loudly.

"Hurry up. The shares will go up in a while." Xuan Xuan waved the rest of the shares in his hand and shouted loudly.When the Zhao people present heard the rising price, everyone panicked and ran towards the signing place. They wanted a quick visa, and then they could get the shares they wanted. I can get it.In order to be able to get the shares, some people began to ignore the table and stepped on the table.Some people almost made a move. If they didn't see the security guard, they probably would have done it. After this time, they really didn't have the heart, because the price of the shares was still rising, and the price soon broke through 26 gold. Some people Seeing that it has broken through 26 gold, I dare not buy it.Then they quit, and some people insisted on buying. They thought that there might be more room, because the demand for steel is very strong, and the price may be more than thirty. If it can rise to one hundred gold, It's the best thing ever.There are not a few people who have such thoughts.

Qin State has its own stock exchange, the main purpose is to allow enterprises to have a trading platform, which can sell their own shares and solve the financial problem. However, it takes a long time to prepare for such a platform. The result of the strict control of the Qin government, but if it is fully liberalized, the result will be even crazier. This is the limitation of Qin's formal system.

South Korea also has its own trading platform, but this platform has just been established. The number and scale of the company's stocks listed on them are relatively small, and the fluctuation of this market is not very large. Moreover, some people who often trade have noticed a situation, that is, South Korea The stock market trading fluctuates with the stock market trading of the Qin State. They will certainly not understand the reason for this, because they still do not understand the mystery, but the people of the Qin State have noticed this, because they know very well that these Korean listed companies , all have a strong Qin background. If the Qin company is affected, then their company operations will also be affected to a certain extent. In this way, it is easy to cause the Korean stock market to rise and fall. I understand the reason, but this already shows that South Korea's stock market is being established.

With the frequent contact with Qin State, the people of Zhao State also began to imitate the people of Qin State and began to solve their financial problems. Their attempt was to hold some share sales activities in the lobby of some hotels or in a certain conference room on a regular basis, so that The activities are all voluntary buying and selling. Some people own shares and sell them to those who bid high. In this way, they can get funds and solve their temporary difficulties. Some people get shares and have a chance to invest and make money. This is much more cost-effective than buying antiques.And it can solve the problems of both parties. This is the situation that everyone hopes to see, of course.More is speculation. For them, the purpose of speculation is to get a lot of money, a huge amount of money in a short period of time.This is the goal of all speculators. Although the laws of Qin State are very strict, strict laws still cannot prevent the existence of speculation.

For example, Qin State's speculative apricot Li Wen is a very typical example. For this reason, he passed through the cell many times, but he was released every time without any charges, because it is impossible for Qin State to use the charge of excessive speculation. Arresting the other party, if this is the case, then those big businessmen who pay more taxes will resist, so after the investigation, the Qin government will release the other party, and make a statement admitting the other party's income, and the reported figures will become a part of speculation. Kind of bragging because he's going to make a lot of money every time if the government doesn't catch him and doesn't report it.Then the outside world can't know how much money the other party has earned.

However, this approach in the south of Handan City has actually become the prototype of the stock exchange in Zhao State's early days, but the government has not further promoted it, and it has become Zhao State's own stock exchange.This is also a pity for Zhao Guo.

Inside the Xianyang Palace of Qin State.

"What does the prime minister mean?" King Qin asked.

"The prime minister means that the people of Yan must withdraw their troops, otherwise, Qin will never compromise on this issue, and the people of Qin will not invest a lot of money in such a costly war. It is very wise to conduct large-scale offensive operations, if the people of Yan continue to do so, then the only thing left for Yan is to perish." Meng Yi replied.

"Well. The widow also heard that there are businessmen in the country of Yan holding tax resistance activities. In the end, it was all settled by Prince Dan himself. Although there was no tax increase, there was no tax reduction. The tax revenue of Yan country is already very high. If this continues If it is not, Yan will not have much financial revenue." King Qin said.

"Yes, Your Majesty, therefore, the prime minister thought of a tax reduction system. If you can join such a system, maintain a stable trade tax rate, and give certain preferential treatment for investment, Qin's capital can enter. If you don't Even if the Qin government encourages them, businessmen won’t go.” Meng Yi introduced.

"Hmm. That's good. For example, Zhao Guo, Zhao Guo has done a good job. A large number of Zhao Guo's nobles have become our partners, and they are doing things in our Qin State. Who would have thought of such a thing before." King Qin said.

"Yan State is really special. They are still continuing large-scale wars. Our war methods have been strictly controlled. The current expansion of the Western Regions cannot be too large, and Yan State has the power of the whole country. In the war between North Korea and Goguryeo, their logistics was cut off, and most of their troops were besieged. If it went on for a long time, Yan State would collapse. I think that Qin State should help at this time and take the opportunity to reap greater benefits, or It is to attract more advantageous resources." Meng Yi suggested the whole time.

"I heard from the prime minister. In the area north of Liaodong, there is a plain area. If it is opened, Qin State can get a lot of territory, but to open this area, Qin State needs to mobilize the power of Eastern Mengzhou. In this way, The military strength of Qin State is very tight, so we still have to rely on the strength of Yan State." Meng Yi suggested.

King Qin looked at Meng Yi when he heard this.
