Chapter 198
"Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty!"
"I'm Great Qin Tianwei, far away to the extreme west!"
"Expanding the territory is in front of you again!"
"Long live Great Qin!"
The civil and military officials on the side also reacted quickly and applauded one after another, all with hearty smiles on their faces.
This is a great joy worthy of celebration by the whole world.
The people also cheered.
Although many people don't even know where the Seleucid Kingdom is, as long as they know that the territory of Great Qin has become bigger again.
Expand the territory, but no one will be too much.
Especially now that the harvest of Fusang Island is just around the corner, let the people clearly realize that this expansion of territory will not only benefit future generations, but also have extremely considerable benefits at present, benefiting all the people of Daqin!
However, the imperial court invested all the profits obtained from foreign lands in the construction of Great Qin, and the people could get real wage benefits from the hired laborers.
This made the support of the people of Daqin for the expansion of the territory rise by several levels again!
And Great Qin does not have so many rules and regulations in later generations, Qin people are straightforward and open-minded, martial and masculine, and believe in the revenge of a gentleman, ten years is not too late, but there is no later generation of rotten Confucianism that is strict internally, very tolerant of foreign lands, and even a hundred times the return is almost a traitor.
Under the guidance of newspapers and other public opinions, the people of Great Qin were convinced that as the most powerful kingdom of the Celestial Empire, then the whole world should be all Qin Tucai.
To be a part of Daqin is an honor for Fanbang to be a foreign country!
If you don't know how to count, you can just extinguish it!
In this case, whoever dares to chirp crookedly should treat foreign races favorably and kill less evil will be directly spurned by the people of Daqin, and even beaten by the people.
This is obviously not from the position of the Great Qin people, a foreign spy, everyone will be punished!
Ying Zheng looked around, only feeling complacent and confident.
He is full of confidence in Daqin's take-off.
Immediately, he turned his gaze to Fusu, who was smiling on the side, and he knew very well who the greatest hero of the Great Qin Prosperous Era was.
The father and son looked at each other and smiled, and everything was silent.
......
After recounting the reunion with Yushu Gong and other daughters for a long time, early the next morning, Fusu was pulled over by Yingzheng again.
"Fusu, what do you think of the current money shortage in Daqin?"
Ying Zheng handed the draft submitted by Nei Shi Teng to Fusu Dao.
Fusu had to feel that the first emperor really had the spirit of a workaholic.
After reading through it in detail, Fusu already had an idea in his heart.
"Father, the minting of new coins proposed by Nesten is, in the eyes of his sons, just a temporary and excessive plan. "
"Minting gold and silver coins can indeed solve some of the problems, but it is still a palliative rather than a cure. "
Fusu said in a deep voice.
"How?"
The First Emperor suddenly came and said with interest.
"Gold and silver coins, although the value is much higher than copper coins, but for large transactions, it is only from dozens of carts of copper coins to several carts of gold and silver coins, and it still does not solve the problem of transportation difficulties that merchants have a headache for. "
"Therefore, Erchen thought that he could set up money in the counties of Daqin, in the name of the imperial court.
Merchants only need to deposit money in any bank, they can get a money ticket issued by the bank, and they can withdraw the money again by spending a small amount of fees at any bank. "
"In this way, the area opened by the merchants in the money village does not need to travel thousands of miles to transport gold, silver and copper coins, and only needs to carry a money ticket, isn't it much more convenient?"
Fusu said with a smile.
What he mentioned is actually a ticket number that has existed for thousands of years in the history of the market.
It's not that Fusu doesn't want to open a bank directly, but that the development of the financial industry at the moment really hasn't even budded, and it is easy to make a big stride to a bank at once.
Not to mention, at the current level of the Inner History Office, there is no concept of the bank at all, let alone how to operate, and there is no talent in this area at all.
Merchants and ordinary people also had a hard time accepting the concept of paper money.
After all, gold, silver and copper coins are real value, and paper money, in the current Great Qin, even if it has the credibility guarantee of the imperial court, is still not as real as cash after all.
It is better to use the ticket number excessively, so that the businessmen are familiar with the use of money tickets, and feel the benefits of money tickets instead of cash, and then they will naturally start to use money tickets for direct transactions, and these money tickets will also have some functions of paper money.
Moreover, the handling fee of the ticket number can also ensure the profit of the ticket number, so that the Inner History Office can rest assured that it can boldly expand the ticket number business and cultivate a group of financial talents first.
After all the conditions are in place, it is a matter of course to launch a bank and open up the deposit and loan business at the same time.
"That's a good idea!"
Ying Zheng's eyes suddenly lit up.
"But Your Highness, the merchant is very profitable, and this money ticket needs to pay a handling fee to exchange money, will they be willing?"
Nestin hesitated.
"Nowadays, merchants are doing business, and transporting cash is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also for the sake of safety, they also have to hire guards to escort them, which is extremely costly!"
"In comparison, the handling fee for this remote exchange is just a drop in the bucket!"
"The merchants will figure it out!"
"As long as we set the handling fee at a reasonable level, I believe these merchants will be very supportive!"
Fusu explained with a smile.
Ying Zheng thought for a long time and nodded slowly.
"And there is another advantage of the money village, that is, the tax money and grain collected by the counties and counties of Daqin can also be directly paid to this money village, and all the money money will be converted into cash and handed over to Xianyang City, which is not only convenient for management, but also saves the loss on the way to Cao. "
Fusu said with a smile.
At present, Daqin's taxes, in addition to commercial taxes, are mainly in kind.
The things that have been paid are also varied.
Corn and the like are fine, but the taste is different, and things like timber and ore have to be transported to the market and sold, and then exchanged for cash before they can be deposited in the national treasury.
It's cumbersome to manage.
However, if a whip law is to be implemented, and all taxes paid to the imperial court are converted into cash and collected, it is easy for unscrupulous local officials to seize the loophole, causing damage to the people in the price difference and causing public anger.
At this time, the money houses opened in various counties and directly under the management of the imperial court could play the role of directly converting all local taxes into cash and then handing them over to the imperial court, without giving local officials room to operate.
For the imperial court, when allocating funds, it can also flexibly dispatch the treasury of each county to reduce the loss during transportation.
It is already playing part of the functions of the central bank in later generations.
"That's very good. "
Ying Zheng nodded with satisfaction.
The officials were even more impressed.
His Royal Highness Fusu, he is really an all-rounder who governs the country!
However, what shocked the officials was still to come.
"Another meaning of Qianzhuang is to let Daqin collect the wealth of the world!"
Fusu smiled and glanced at the dull-looking court ministers.
