"Look at the information first, and then explain the specific situation." Shang Wen said to everyone.Everyone lowered their heads to check the information.Meng Yi has already read the information.He knew what the content of the information was. Qin’s banks and major enterprises have adopted the method of capital export. There are many cooperations and mergers in various countries, and such cooperation and mergers have brought about the growth of the company. Vigorously develop, in the process of development, there have also been some disputes caused by the purchase of shares, or incidents caused by uneven distribution of shares. Shangwen collected these incidents and made a memorandum↓In addition to these, there are a lot of cases of corporate mergers.

"What does the Prime Minister mean?" the Minister of Finance asked after a quick scan.

"What do you mean?" Shangwen asked instead of answering.

"I don't understand. These are all cases of corporate mergers. There are many such cases, and the registrant of the owner of the shares has changed a lot. There should be nothing like this." The Minister of Finance said to Shang Wen.

"The number of our enterprises is average, and the growth is average, but the number of foreign enterprises has increased a lot, that is to say, our enterprises have a large number of cooperative enterprises or affiliated enterprises abroad." The Minister of Finance analyzed.

"En." Shangwen nodded, and what the Minister of Political Affairs said was correct.

"It is indeed the case. The number of Qin's foreign enterprises has increased a lot. In order to cooperate with enterprises in other countries, it is necessary to establish such enterprises. After the establishment of enterprises, the cooperation can complete specific tasks. According to the requirements of each country There are some special tax regulations, we can pay taxes, but the amount is relatively small, and in cooperation with the nobles, some taxes can be reduced or exempted, so a large number of enterprises in the state of Qin began to set up factories abroad. Therefore, the number of domestic enterprises in the state of Qin is not There is not much increase. But this does not mean that the competitiveness of enterprises in Qin State has declined. On the contrary, Qin State has completed the optimization of its own enterprises through internal competition, and some enterprises have expanded their scale in some places and increased production lines. First, the production capacity of Qin State has been greatly improved.

"I don't know the prime minister, what should we pay attention to?" The bank minister asked precisely at this time.

"My opinion is, finance. Or specific cooperation matters." Shang Wen said.

Everyone look at me and I look at you, I want them to still not understand why Shangwen did this.

"Everyone can think about it in detail," Shang Wen said.

"At present, the speed of enterprise expansion in Qin State can be said to be very fast. But why enterprises can expand so fast, I think to a large extent, has a lot to do with Qin State's financial policy. The specific explanation is that enterprises have Sufficient funds for expansion. If there is no sufficient funds, expansion, construction of factories abroad, or increase in production scale, such things are simply impossible.” Shang Wen said to everyone.Everyone nodded.

"You have also seen that the cooperation between enterprises is very common, which shows a phenomenon, that is, all countries urgently need a large amount of funds to expand, or cooperate with Qin to introduce related technologies, and our Qin's Enterprises also hope to open up each other's markets urgently, and under such requirements, our capital scale has increased a lot." Shang Wen said.

"Compared to Qin, the current issuance of paper currency in Qin State is still insufficient, because the development of many places is not enough. The reason for the insufficiency is that these places do not have sufficient financial guarantee. At this time, we have added a large amount of currency. Markets, for example, Zhao Guo and Wei Guo. There is still a great demand for banknotes in various countries." Shang Wen stood up and said.

Everyone nodded. They didn't know what kind of relationship there was, what kind of influence such a relationship would have on Qin, and how the prime minister thought of this.It's hard for them to believe it.

"What I want to explain is the issue of the money supply of Qin State. Is Qin State's current monetary tightening or monetary inflation? What is the demand for money?" Shang Wen said at this time.

Hearing this, everyone understood what Shang Wen wanted to explain.The reason behind the expansion of enterprises in Qin State is the support of banks. Banks have provided a large number of loans. With the support of loans, major enterprises can quickly expand their scale or expand externally. They can cooperate with enterprises to Or the way of merging companies to export capital to foreign countries, and behind these, without the support of banks, they simply do not have such sufficient funds to carry out.

At the same time, Qin’s economists, especially some economic colleges, have conducted research on Qin’s monetary policy. According to them, the emergence of Qin’s banknotes has a great advantage. This advantage lies in the fact that it can be scaled and controlled. It is issued, and its circulation is much more effective than the gold and silver currencies used before. In addition, the gold reserve of Qin State has become the first in the Warring States, and this position is difficult to shake, so the economists of Qin State, the research results are very important Qin's banknotes are very beneficial, and Qin is required to promote them on a large scale.And Shangwen’s monetary policy also has such a tendency. Qin’s not simple interest rate cut is actually the biggest supporter behind the promotion of Qin’s banknotes. Qin hopes to see the huge benefits brought about by the promotion of banknotes.

However, it needs to be pointed out, which is something Shang Wen urgently needs to see, that is, the balance between the supply of money and the demand for money has only just been touched upon by the Qin economists.This shows that Qin's economic research has penetrated into the field of currency, and Qin will have a deeper understanding of the banknotes it uses.

Paper currency has various advantages, but the disadvantages cannot be ignored.At present, Qin State's enterprises continue to expand, and this momentum is very violent. At this time, Shangwen is a little worried. He doesn't know whether to continue like this, or to control it step by step.So Shang Wen wants to use this question to lead to the question of monetary policy.

"Money supply, this is a new concept." The Minister of Finance said after listening.

"For us, there are many things that we have not yet understood about such a new concept. For example, how to calculate the supply, there are many plans now. It is not clear which plan we use specifically, and there are many directions of supply. , we don’t know the specifics.” The Minister of Finance said some of the problems, which is indeed the case. The specific situation does make the finances feel awkward, because they look at the problem from different angles. They are all different, so the plans are different, because which of these plans is reasonable, and the Minister of Finance is very embarrassed.

"Well, let's talk about it. Is the current money supply in Qin State oversupply, or is the demand continuing to be strong? Under such a strong situation, what should Qin State pay attention to?" Shangwen himself is not clear about the plan. He himself does not count births. He does not know how economists obtained them, how to calculate specific figures, and what kind of situation behind which figures represent.

"Well. I think that the current money supply in Qin is far from enough." At this time, the Minister of the Bank spoke first.

"Our situation in the Western Regions is not very optimistic. The major banks in the Western Regions need a lot of money, and with the existence of a large number of city banks, the money supply problem is still insufficient. In addition, it seems to be because of the situation of Zhao Guojin before. , a large amount of funds were withdrawn from the northern regions of the Western Regions, and some of our railway projects lacked funds. Although in the end, the Federal State Council issued a large amount of funds to use checks, and the money order exchange business ended, but this also shows that the supply of funds is very tight. ’ said the bank minister.

"Not only these, but also the state of Zhao. The situation of the state of Zhao also requires a lot of funds. I heard that just one royal bank needs more than 100 million funds. A total of more than 300 nobles mortgaged a large amount of funds in their hands. Gold has raised such a large amount of funds. As a result, the demand for funds will be very large. I heard that the recent developments in South Korea are also very tense." The Minister of Banking said.

"Wei's demand is also great." The Minister of Economic Affairs also said at this time.

"I heard that our Li's arsenal built a bullet factory in the state of Wei. The government of the state of Wei in the north welcomed it very much and gave it a three-year tax exemption. This is a good thing for our enterprises in the state of Qin, but, There is a lot of pressure behind the banks, especially the current financial pressure," the economy minister said.

"Yes, the current interest rate still has some pressure on the repayment of enterprises. The loan interest rate is [-]%. I think it should be lowered." The Minister of Economy suggested.

Shang Wen nodded at this time, saying that he would consider this matter. If he continued to borrow funds at the current lending rate, the cost would still be a bit high, and the amount of currency supplied by the bank was also very limited.Judging from the information provided by various ministers, Qin's current capital is not blooming at once, but is gradually starting in one or two main directions, and the liquidity is very strong.Among them, the role played by the bank is very large.

The Western Regions of Qin State and the northern states needed a lot of funds for railway projects. The funds were gathered in this direction at once, and then in the direction of Zhao State, and a large amount of funds went to Zhao State at once. Such a large liquidity must have been There will be no, but now the bank only needs a telegram, and the train can quickly complete the transportation.The convenience of information and logistics facilitate the circulation of funds.

The meeting is still going on.Many things require specific discussions.Shangwen wanted to ask for opinions from all parties, because the issue of money supply must be taken seriously.

Inside Li Xin's forward headquarters.

"The information collected so far shows that these commercial armed forces have not yet entered the core area of ​​Dawan Kingdom." Li Xin's Chief of Staff Ye said.

"En." Li Xin nodded.

"The resistance encountered was not very intense and the terrain was not clear, and the general staff did not give clear reminders." Li Xin said to the chief of staff.

"Sir." At this moment, an intelligence officer came in anxiously.

"This is a report we just received urgently. It shows that one of our commercial armed forces may have suffered major losses." The staff officer who came in said anxiously.Because of his anxiety, he even forgot to salute.

Li Xin took the report directly without saying a word.The report describes the findings in detail.At the same time he made reasonable assumptions based on these findings.

"You go down first." After reading the report, Li Xin handed it to the chief of staff.After the staff officer saluted, he left ∥ the chief of staff looked quickly.

"If that's the case. The situation, maybe." The chief of staff didn't know what to say at this time.

"It's really what you say." Li Xin said.

"If one of our commercial armed forces can be hit, then other commercial armed forces can also be hit. Such losses will become more and more troublesome for us." Li Xin said.

"Well. If there is one, there is another." The chief of staff said.

"That's right, but these are commercial armed forces, they are not regular troops, and they are not under our control." Li Xin continued.

"The most edge of our defense line is the mountain pass in the west. After passing this place, we have no right to use our troops." Li Xin said.

"We have to report such things to the staff and the Ministry of Defense. These things are done by them. We can't solve specific problems." The chief of staff said.

"Wait, I think we should draw up a plan that can deal with such a plan." Li Xin said at this time.

"In my opinion, we should send a telegram first, and send it when we plan to, so as to show that this matter is very serious." The chief of staff said.

"En. In my opinion, this matter is like this." Li Xin thought about it and thought it was okay.

"I'm going to send a telegram now." The chief of staff then left to send a telegram.

And Li Xin carefully studied all the contents mentioned in the report.He was always able to not give up the slightest sign.

Inside the General Staff.

"What should come will eventually come." Wang Jian said after reading the telegram.

"Yes." Yang Duanhe nodded.

"It has been quite a long time since our commercial armed forces entered. If Dawan Kingdom still does not respond at this time, then it really should be eliminated." Yang Duanhe said.

"The crux of the problem is not here. We should think about it. What should we do next?" Wang Jian asked at this time.

"We don't know much about the situation, and it's not comprehensive enough. We don't know the specific terrain, terrain, and the population and military strength of this country." Wang Jian said worriedly.

"This is very unfavorable to us." Yang Duanhe said.

"But we can take some measures to deal with this situation." Yang Duanhe said looking at the report.
