"One hundred mu of good farmland cannot be sold for a penny, but we have such a lot of land in our hands. If we can buy all these things, it will be too easy for Zhao Guo when the railway is built. Yes. Although the railway still needs to bypass some places, the acquired land is enough for us. Prime Minister, this may be an opportunity." The Minister of Economy said.

"Wait. What did you say?" At this moment, Li Mu seemed to realize something.

"The current land price is very low. If we can take the opportunity to acquire it, it may bring great benefits. Read the book ww w·1ka ns hu·cc," said the Minister of Economic Affairs.

"Yes. That's right." Li Mu said after thinking about things.

What the gold brought, Li Mu didn't know why the nobles exchanged their land for gold, maybe they liked it, or some other reason, but the current land price is indeed very suitable, you know, there are many nobles The fief is difficult to use because it is their fief, and these fiefs have become an obstacle to Zhao's economy, but now, because of the use of banknotes and the problems of the nobles themselves, the value of the land has dropped a lot at once. Come, the land problem in the hands of the nobles can be solved.This is not a big problem that I was worried about before, but now it has been solved like this.

"En. Take part of our financial funds and buy part." Li Mu thought for a while and said.

"However, this matter should be kept a little more hidden. It's best to let our bank do it. That's it." Li Mu thought for a while and said.

"This." The Minister of Economic Affairs looked at Li Mu.

"Just do it like this, don't ask why." Li Mu said.

And in Xianyang, Qin State, in the office of the chairman of Wenyang Bank.Ying Yu also encountered a problem.

"Chairman, Director Xiao has sent a telegram." Lu Zhi said.

"Oh." Ying Yu took the telegram and looked at it.

"This is indeed a problem." Ying Yu looked at the telegram and said.

"Most of these nobles are mortgages. Mortgage, that is to say, one day in the future, if they repay the loan, they can get their things back." Ying Yu looked at it and said.

Xiao He mentioned in the telegram.Because of the bank's mortgage loan business, a large amount of money is raised, but the bank accepts a large amount of fixed assets. In this way, the risk of the nobleman is greatly reduced, because a large amount of funds are flooded into the market, and the bank's hands However, the amount of funds was getting less and less. Although the gold was sold and part of it was recovered, a large amount of funds were flooded out.At this time, the banknotes issued by the United Bank of Qin State and Zhao State have not yet withdrawn. In the market, only the banknotes of Qin State are supporting the current situation.

"What's the attitude of other banks?" At this moment, Ying Yu stood up and asked Lu Zhi.

"Well. Other banks are also expanding their business, but their business expansion is very limited, not as big as ours." Lu Zhi reported.

"En. If this continues, we will have to mobilize more funds to the Zhao market." Lu Zhi said at this time.Lu Zhi knew very well that Zhao's bank managers had requested more banknotes and gold several times.Paper money gives a lot, but, the price of gold, not much.

"Their mortgages are a lot of mortgages, such as land, fields, minerals, and real estate. Everything they can mortgage is mortgaged." At this time, Lu Zhi said.

"Our financial situation is not good right now." Ying Yu thought for a while and said.

"Report, to our major banks and joint cooperative banks, we will provide them with a part of the gold, roughly, the gold in our hands, and release it. I see. Let's release it in succession. It must be released gradually, as slowly as possible. Get out. Push down the mortgage price." Ying Yu said after thinking for a while.

"Would you like to put gold at this time?" Lu Zhi asked in confirmation.

"Let go. Let go of some of the gold and return the funds in our hands, that's it." Ying Yu thought for a while and said.

"En. If possible, we can continue to release the gold in our hands, that's it." Ying Yu thought for a while and said.

"But it needs our confirmation." Ying Yu continued.

Inside the Xianyang Palace.

"The state of Zhao is really in chaos. If you read one book, 1k, you need a ns to read hu cc." King Qin said while looking at the newspaper.Regarding Zhao Guo's gold surge.A large amount of gold began to secretly flow into the country of Zhao. As a result, the illegal mortgage of the country of Zhao happened.There are more and more reports like this.After seeing such reports.King Qin could only sway.For something like this.He felt that the order of Zhao State was abnormally chaotic, but Qin State did not have such a chaotic order. King Qin was very surprised, but thinking that Shang Wen was dealing with these problems, he naturally did not have any worries.However, King Qin wanted to understand what was going on.But currently, only a few people are aware of these situations.

Xinzheng, South Korea.

"Isn't this gold rising too violently?" Han Shu said after reading the content of the telegram reporting that Zhao Guo's gold was about to soar.

"Your Majesty, the price of gold in Qin has also risen a lot. The price of gold we buy now is a bit high." Zhang Liang said worriedly.

"Well, that's true." Han Shu thought for a while and said.

"How about this, temporarily stop." Han Shu said.

"If we go on like this, we will be short of funds. After all, there are still a lot of things to buy. If we take up all of them and buy a lot of gold, our situation will be bad." Han Shu thought for a while and said.

"This gold is good. But it's not easy to spend money like this." Han Shu said.

"In addition, we need to search for a large amount of gold overseas. The future gold replenishment must be carried out in this direction, and we cannot rely on purchases." Han Shu continued.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Zhang Liang continued.

"The other people who negotiated with Qi have returned." Zhang Liang continued.

"They have to carefully consider our request. However, considering the help given by South Korea before, they promised to give us some ports and give us preferential tariffs." Zhang Liang said.

"Is this to please us?" Han Shu asked Zhang Liang.

"That's right." Zhang Liang said.

"That's fine. Didn't they plan to assign Langya to us?" Han Shu asked at this time.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Zhang Liang said.During this negotiation, this issue was confirmed, and Langya was considered to be given to South Korea.However, the actual control of Langya is in the hands of the Chu State. In this way, South Korea has such actual ownership, but it can only be regarded as having it if it is seized from the Chu State.

"Negotiate with Chu State. If they don't give it, we will take it by force. It is best to obtain it through diplomatic means. I don't want to use more force to solve the problem." Han Shu said.

As for why Qi State gave South Korea such favorable conditions.Tian Heng has his own purpose, because by doing so, he can gain South Korea's advantages in navigation, whether it is personnel or trade.Given certain preferential treatment, Qi State itself will also get such an advantage. This is a win-win situation for Qi State, and Qi State is willing to accept such a situation.

"Although Langya was given to the Koreans, the Koreans also need to pay a certain price to get it. At the same time, we can also make great progress in navigation by cooperating with the Koreans. This is very beneficial to Qi." Tian Heng analyzed the matter to his advisers.In this matter, Qi State's attitude is more to develop its own navigation, because maritime trade can bring rich benefits, such rich benefits are far stronger than competing with those other countries for hegemony, and it takes quite a while to develop agriculture. A period of time, but sailing, the benefits obtained are quite large.

The coastal area of ​​Qi State.

"How is it?" An official of Qi State anxiously asked the result.

"No, sir." An old carpenter said.

"No? This, isn't this wood? It's wood, and it can make such a big ship. Why not?" the Qi official asked anxiously.

"My lord doesn't know that the wood used for this big boat must be air-dried, and the mud from the river must be used before it is air-dried..." The old craftsman explained.The wood used for large ships is different from that of ordinary furniture. However, Qi State is a country that has just emerged in maritime trade. It can be said that Qi State is in its infancy.Qi State, which is in its infancy, needs a large number of ships to go to sea for trade. However, these ships need a lot of wood, and these woods need to be stored. Qi State cannot make so much wood in a year. In addition to the previous wars, Qi State The country simply doesn't have that much timber to provide Qi to build ships.

"So, where did the wood for South Korea's ships come from?" At this time, the official asked.

"This." The old carpenter said.

"Think of a way. You solve this matter immediately. If you can't solve it, wait for your head to die." After speaking, the official left.

Carpenters look at me, I look at you, they don't know how to do it.

South Korea’s merchant ships were built by Qin State, because the wood was cheap, and South Korea could only build a large number of wooden ships. Therefore, for a period of time, Qin State’s shipyards began to mass-produce wooden ships, but wooden ships needed a lot of wood. In order to solve this problem.The technicians of Qin State specialized in tackling key problems, and they solved the problem of timber.And specifically apply for technical patents for protection.Therefore, Qin State produced such wooden boats in large quantities.But Qi State is different.There is no such technical reserve, and the timber reserve is not optimistic, so Qi's shipbuilding is not going very smoothly.

Xianyang, Qin State.

"Western Regions, the number of railways built in the north is very large. The main road has reached zero. The branch line has passed [-] railway projects. This number has exploded a lot at once." Meng Yi said to Shang Wen.

"We need a lot of steel for so many railway constructions." Shang Wen thought for a while and said.

"Yes, at present, many iron and steel plants are stepping up production and non-stop production, but they still cannot meet the demand. Not only these, but also more, the demand for iron ore is very large, and iron ore cannot Meet our needs." Meng Yi said.

"I am aware of this point, Qin State still needs to step up efforts in this regard." Shang Wen said.
