When the maids in the palace hurriedly told Ying Yu the news, Ying Yu didn't believe it. The shyness of the little girl changed her usual bold style.
Next. The media and newspapers began to report on this matter. Although it has not been officially released yet, people think that this matter must be settled like this.
Shang Wen was at a loss thinking about Ying Yu. Until now he didn’t know how to explain the relationship between himself and Ying Yu. He was an enemy. Ying Yu murdered him the first time they met. They were friends. Shang Wen didn’t know either Why did you give her clothes at the time. But think about the unresolved knot between the two. There are many such examples. Yingyu is always very domineering. This makes Shangwen not treat Yingyu as his lover. The relationship between them. How should I put it. I always feel that Shangwen is afraid of Yingyu. Shangwen sorts out the relationship between himself and Yingyu.
Ying Yu was a little excited. She was a little flustered. Her mind was blank. She felt like she didn't know anything. But she always felt very happy. Very happy.
However, a letter conveyed by a South Korean special envoy made Shangwen stop thinking about the relationship with Yingyu. The letter stated that she would visit Qin on the first day of February. She would send someone to notify her of the specific itinerary. Report to King Qin to know.
Han Shu’s visit has a deep reason. South Korea has a geographical advantage. The location of Xinzheng is roughly the location of Zhengzhou, Henan today. The geographical location is extremely important. This is the hub of the Central Plains and a place with convenient transportation.
Han Shu took advantage of such geographical advantages to actively develop trade with neighboring countries. In particular, he smuggled a large number of arms and weapons from Qin State to Qi State. At the same time, he imported various commodities from Qin State and resold them to Chu State. Middle. Played a very important role in selling goods.
Most of the merchants in Qin State are conscious of quantity orders. They began to rely on a large number of product assembly line operations and industrialized production models to export goods to South Korea. Koreans got cheap goods and began to impact the other six countries on a large scale.
The state of Qin played the role of a producer, while South Korea played the role of a seller. South Korea shipped a large amount of goods from Qin to Qi, and Chu resold them.
For example, in Chu State, silk is the clothes worn by noble families. Ordinary people can’t afford such clothes. But the blended fabrics of Qin State greatly meet the needs of Chu people for clothes. Especially the color of Qin State’s clothes Diversification. A large number of modern printing and dyeing techniques using sulfide as dyes appeared in Qin State. Various blends of different proportions greatly met people's demand for silk. Qin State blended silk and hemp according to different proportions .This kind of fabric has the smoothness of silk, and has the characteristics of resistance to hemp. Especially in winter, the fabric added with wool has the effect of preventing cold. Not only blended, but also a large number of sweaters, leather boots, and various styles The leather bag. The price is absolutely attractive.
There are a lot of Koreans dumping goods. From nobles to ordinary people, they are dumping goods wantonly. Bicycles have become a must-have in the initial stage. Tricycles are also the product of Korean craftsmen’s self-development. They are usually dispatched by the whole family. When they come back They sold their bicycles and tricycles. What they got in exchange was a lot of soil sugar. The rice people still haven't found a reliable way to use rice. This? This is indeed something that the Chu State can offer. These items need to be collected through bartering. Finally, they are sold to the big nobles. They organize people to bring them back to South Korea, and then transport them to Qin State.
Qin produces a lot of products. This leads to very low prices. Usually, people in Chu can exchange a stone of rice for ten feet of cloth and a pair of leather boots, or three pieces of ready-made clothes. The clothes of Qin are very strong. The low-priced commodities broke through the economic defense line of the Chu State. Hemp, silk, sugarcane, and oranges are all important raw materials for the Qin State. Usually these things can be exchanged for what they want in large quantities. Therefore, people Started not to grow crops to get more of what they want. Instead a lot of hemp. Mulberry trees. Orange trees. And these things can be exchanged for delicious canned food. Flour. And all kinds of snacks for Koreans.
With the continuous accumulation of these raw materials in South Korea, South Korea began to build a large number of warehouses around the Qin State Concession area and the railway station. The goods of Qin State and the raw materials of Qi and Chu are all piled up here. But Qin State’s transportation capacity is satisfied at once. There is no such a large inventory. And the funds of the Koreans are pressed on these goods. Their capital chain is about to be broken. The train track can only be laid in summer. At present, there is only one railway line. The cost of road transportation is a bit high. Koreans can't afford to pay.
Faced with such a predicament, Han Shu naturally asked Qin Guo for help. Qin Guo is the shelf in South Korea. Only when the raw materials are received can the payment be made. Koreans can pick up the goods again with the money for the next round of dumping.
Han Shu's solution is to set up a factory on the spot. This time I'm here to talk about setting up a factory and goods.
574 Qin Banliang in Circulation
Please remember the URL of this site:.
Han Shu’s solution is indeed very beneficial to South Korea. First, South Korea can solve the problem of most labor transfers. The transfer of these labors can also generate a lot of taxes. This is Han Shu’s first consideration. The second is the establishment of those factories. It has greatly diverted the attention of the old aristocrats. And Han Shu can extract taxes from it. Compared with the taxes paid by those laborers, the factory taxes are undoubtedly a big one. As for the rest, she doesn't care about it. What she wants is taxes. It is not the process of taxation.
Regardless of Han Sook's starting point. Her urgent move to build a factory will greatly stimulate the development of South Korea's capitalist economy.
However, Han Shu ignored one point. She only saw the taxation one-sidedly and ignored South Korea's economic status. South Korea's economy is completely dependent on the economic development of Qin State. At present, a large number of reselling goods in South Korea and the factories established in the future will all be It is in the downstream direction of Qin's economy. And as the economies of the two countries continue to deepen, the contrast between the two exchanges is strengthening. This is a potential economic threat.
South Korea's economy is in a downstream direction, which determines Qin's natural offensive posture.
South Korea does not produce a large number of various commodities. They rely on reselling a large amount of imported goods from Qin to third parties. In the process of reselling, Koreans automatically give up their own currency and use Qin's banknotes on a large scale.
Those big nobles naturally have the capital to do big business. But the civilians who have just "liberated" have no capital to sell. So they first sell cheap labor. The places where they sell their labor are naturally Qin's factories. Or they are on the streets of Qin. Do some small business. When they have a little savings, they will use it to dump the goods.
It can be said that the Koreans completed the primitive accumulation of capital in the form of exporting labor services. After the accumulation, they began to make money. Most of their primitive accumulation funds were Qin Banliang, not the local currency of South Korea.
After they completed the first round of buying a large amount of raw materials, when the big nobles or the Qin State pushed the shipping point into South Korea, they still paid half of the Qin State. Originally, the Korean nobles insisted on paying in their own currency. Yes. But the settlement between currencies is very troublesome. The intermediate link of currency is gold. And the price of gold caused some people to suffer heavy losses under the futures changes of Qin State. For example, if the price of gold goes up, the common people will be less. If it goes down, the nobles will suffer. In the long run It seems that the price of gold will continue to fall. Because Qin State holds a large amount of gold sources, countries are unable to exchange the gold in Qin State's hands. However, the gold in Qin State's hands has increased rapidly due to trade relations. This will reduce demand and increase production. The gold output of Yan State has been rising continuously. This is very unfavorable to the Korean nobles. So they simply abandoned the intermediate exchange link and directly used Qin Banliang as the settlement currency on a large scale. Korean merchants who adapted to the Qin Banliang currency in this way Round after round of dumping business started.
In this round of dumping business, Qin's banking industry has played a great catalytic role. Qin's status bank was established in the concession area, and strictly implemented the principle of low-interest loans. Koreans started This kind of business is very strange. So they are curious about their status and deposit their savings in the bank, and then get interest when it matures. In this way, many people deposit in the bank. Originally, Qin State did not intend to provide loans to Koreans. It is purely state ideology. But Banks cannot make profits without lending. So Qin State Bank began to provide loans to Koreans.
There are prerequisites for the loan. That is the mortgage. And the credit must be recorded. And those big nobles use the old method before, in the form of usury to make loans. The emergence of banks has greatly impacted the usury of Korean nobles. No matter how powerful your aristocrats are, they dare not do anything to Qin. So, a large number of civilians began to borrow money from banks. They still used Qin Banliang. In this way, the Koreans have sufficient funds for continuous dumping.
Qin Banliang is banknotes. The advantages of banknotes are fully utilized. Moreover, Qin State owns banks. As long as you open an account and deposit them, you are more at ease than keeping them at home. Paper money is easy to carry, and it is issued by Qin State. In terms of reputation It is far more practical than the banknotes issued by South Korea itself.
With the development of commerce, Qin Banliang banknotes began to spread at an alarming speed. With the arrival of Korean merchants in Chu and Qi, they began to slowly use Qin Banliang banknotes as settlement currency. Qin Banliang banknotes have even been circulated in South Korea. The national currency has the risk of withdrawing from the currency arena. In Chu State, people use Qin State’s half-two banknotes to replace that kind of barter exchange. It makes the circulation of goods faster. This allows the commodity economy to slowly upgrade to a market Economy. However, due to the banking business, especially the lukewarm relationship between Qin and Chu, banks cannot go deep into the territory of Chu State. As for Qi State, don’t think too much about it.
Not just South Korea. Even Zhao, which has just had a close economic relationship with Qin, began to see a large number of Qin and Qin half banknotes in circulation.
The people of Zhao country are finally out of the sea of suffering. Zhao people who came to Qin country are very hard-working. They have the same hard work as on the battlefield. They work two jobs part-time regardless of hard work. The working hours of factories in Qin country are compared with those in Zhao country. It is very rare, only ten hours. And there is a lot of free time. The Zhao people who came to Qin are very poor. Some of them come from the whole family.
In order to pay off the debts they came to Qin, they usually look for two jobs. Or they start doing business on the street like Koreans. The people who do business are usually night shifts. Because Qin still hasn’t canceled the night curfew security order.
Thanks to their hard work, the Zhao people paid off their debts in an unimaginable few months. At the same time, they still have a balance. This balance is of course Qin Banliang. Their money is all in the bank account. Qin It is an important measure for the law to start a joint fight against wage arrears with the bank. The bank will manage these accounts in a unified manner.
Looking at the Qin Banliang left in the account, many people in Zhao were very excited. Their clothes were made by the factory. They were reluctant to spend one and a half taels on a good dress. Although it was very cheap, they were reluctant. They were poor and afraid. So they kept a part for their own use. Most of them were remitted to Zhao State through the bank. In Handan, Julu, Daidi and Yunzhong of Zhao State, they set up bank points and handling points. Communication Although it can only be connected to Handan, it is enough. We cannot understand the joy of the Zhao people sending money to their relatives. We also cannot understand their excitement of buying various commodities from the Qin State store with the Qin Banliang that was exchanged from the bank. And joy. But there is one thing. Qin's half-two banknotes carry many. Many unknown stories and responsibilities.
A series of big problems caused by the 575 wedding
Please use to visit this site.
Han Shu chose to take the train from Xinzheng directly to Xianyang, Qin State. It only takes two days and one night. The train can arrive in Xianyang. This is much faster than taking a horse-drawn carriage, and the train is also safer.
Compared with the visit of the Queen of Korea, the people of Qin State are more concerned about the marriage between the prime minister of Daqin and the eldest princess. You must know that entertainment is relatively scarce at this time. Although Qin State is developing rapidly in technology, it is still relatively lacking in entertainment. People's entertainment life is relatively simple. People's lack of attention to entertainment is naturally satisfied in the upper class of Qin. People like to know about the living conditions of the upper class. For example, some interesting things that they like to hear.
But Shang Wen was so busy that his head exploded. Meng Yi, as his helper, told him over and over again what to do in the marriage. What kind of matchmaker, what kind of appointment. This is the first time Shang Wen encountered such a big problem. Matchmaker What is it? Is it the news media? The answer is no.
Not only these. Shang Wen also needs to buy a house. Of course, the king of Qin can reward it. But in this way, one item of royal family expenditure will inevitably affect Qin's regular expenditure items. I don't understand why my marriage is so troublesome.
In fact, marriage in Qin State has been greatly simplified compared to the Six Kingdoms. After all, in Shang Yang? Qin State has carried out a reform to change customs. But that reform only met the needs at that time and before. But Qin State has been vastly different.
The state of Qin is now making great strides towards the pace of industry. The foundation of the state of Qin is capital. The rapid flow of capital determines the fierce competition in the commercial society. This competition brings the fast pace and simplicity of the times. Just like why Europe wants to simplify religion. It is impossible for people to be bound by traditional etiquette. It is a timely improvement.
Shang Wen simply didn’t make any preparations. He needed to understand the certain procedures of Qin’s wedding. Shang Wen decided to make a knife on his own wedding. After understanding, Shang Wen learned that there are some things about Qin’s wedding that he has never heard of. Things that can’t even be named. For example, what to pick and what to ask. Shangwen himself can’t figure out why he did this. Meng Yi’s explanation is passed down from above. Just follow it. And the ceremony specifications for folk weddings Although it cannot surpass the royal family, it is quite grand.
It's not just weddings. Meng Yi also mentioned the custom of marrying a concubine and other aspects. For example, the distinction between the eldest son's concubine and his concubines, the distribution of property, etc. It may be the first time for Shangwen to think about issues consciously. But this time Conscious understanding allowed him to reveal another side of Qin. That is to change customs. Qin needs to reform its own customs. Especially for such important events.
If he hadn't personally experienced such a major event in his life, it would be impossible for Shangwen to transfer such a matter to such a small matter. Although such a matter is small, it has a great impact. Think about it. Although Qin Guo suppressed it The expansion of the wedding format. But Qin is getting richer and richer now. It is difficult to guarantee that people will not make some outrageous things. Moreover, there are more and more such rules and more complicated. This kind of folk default custom can sometimes be Affect the development of the economy. This is very unfavorable to the development of capital.
Shangwen began to summarize the disadvantages of this development in his mind. Although weddings can stimulate consumption, it is an extremely deformed consumption after all. People's consumer goods are mainly concentrated in some daily necessities. Especially food consumption far exceeds Shangwen's imagination. A table of banquets needs a gold. Is the food made of gold? The expenses are so high. Not only these. Although the Qin State has a gift-giving style on festivals, the wedding and funeral are obviously not there This list. Because they do not belong to the category of festivals. And there is no fixed date. The wind of gift money suddenly concentrated on weddings and funerals. People began to use these things to carry out some invisible activities wantonly.
It’s not a big deal for a wealthy family to hold such a banquet. But among the folks, the wind of comparison will immediately spread throughout Qin. People’s daily consumption begins to concentrate on the one-off major consumption at the wedding. This kind of consumption has It is a big deformity. Because the consumption that people pay attention to is concentrated in one time period instead of being divided evenly. This is also extremely detrimental to the stimulation of production demand.
Not just consumption, but also investment. Demand will guide a large amount of funds into related industries. Food, hotel and catering. What will Qin develop at that time? It is eating and drinking. These things have something to do with the growth of Qin's strength. What does it matter? Thinking of this, Shangwen frowned.
This is really terrible. These customs are beyond Shangbun's control.
The state of Qin pays attention to its own rapid development in the economic field, but ignores some changes in the folk on this basis. Especially the places that are still unknown and very unfamiliar. These places are closely related to the people.
The state of Qin needs a legislative proposal agency from the status of civil society. To help Shang Wen's legislative binding force. Shang Wen needs this agency to make some proposals. Make amendments on the basis of this proposal and strengthen the civil binding force.
But before changing, Shangwen needs to let Meng Yi finish his sentence.
For example, on the issue of taking concubines, the population of Qin State is not very large. Therefore, encouraging births has become an important national policy. But there are many problems that come with it.
For example, property inheritance, division issues, disputes between direct line and concubine line. Property issues are an important obstacle to capital flow. There are not a few people who have entered judicial procedures because of property issues. This will draw a lot of people's attention.
It's not just about property. There is also the issue of women's status. Although Qin State is very strong about women's lixing, the status of women has not changed much when it comes to marriage issues. To a certain extent, concubines take orders from another woman. .And the issue of his children also has a status hierarchy. After all, the human rights issue is very serious.
Shang Wen listed these problems one by one. These problems made it difficult for him to start. Because it is one after another. You don't know what will happen next.
Industrial civilization allows women to enter the factory. In this way, women have joined the socialized mass production. The improvement of economic ability has given women a foundation that is inferior to men. They can choose the object they like. They have full choice The same is true for men. This is the basis of freedom of love and freedom of marriage. And these so-called etiquette things no longer play his historical role, but a hindrance.
"We're going to have a big fight," Shang Wen said.
