Chapter 1456: The Han Banner Ruled the World (One Hundred and Forty-Six) It Is Better to Plan Slowly

"Your Majesty, let me introduce to you these bosses from Jishi City." Cao Wending bowed down to Wang Jian humbly and whispered, as if he was a servant beside Wang Jian. For this Cao Wending, Wang Jian I always feel good, but I always feel a little lacking in confidence when facing a person like Cao Tiancheng. Now Shunfeng Car and Horse Company completely controls the traffic and transportation industry in Xinqin, and Cao Wending is the general agent of Shunfeng Car and Horse Company in Xinqin. If we really want to talk about his status and influence on the Xin Qin government, I am afraid that he still has He is more important than ordinary ministers, and his opinions will always be taken seriously by Wang Jian.

But Cao Wending always kept his status very low, as if he was really a person begging for food under Wang Jian. This behavior really made Wang Jian very comfortable.

"To be able to have a good chat with Mr. Cao over wine, you gentlemen must also be people with good hands and eyes. I was just thinking about getting to know each other in a novel!" Wang Jian said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, these are all big bosses from Jishi City. This is Wang Zaowang, the boss of the earliest weapons factory in Jishi City. The Shenfeng Weaponry Factory currently operating in Jishi City is the largest crossbow manufacturer in the Han Dynasty. The divine machine crossbows, vehicle-mounted crossbows, and arm-mounted crossbows of our Han army are all from Shenfeng," Cao Wending pointed at a lean businessman.

"Wang Zang is lucky enough to be able to see the majestic king." Wang Zang bent down deeply.

"Hurry up and get free of charge!" Wang Jian was overjoyed, "Boss Wang is also named Wang. Maybe we were the same family five hundred years ago, hahaha."

"It is Wang's blessing to be in the same family as the king five hundred years ago!" Wang Zang said with a smile.

Cao Wending smiled and pointed to the second person: "Your Majesty, this is Zheng Yifan, the owner of the largest smelting factory in Jishi City. The quality of the refined steel produced by me is the best among my fellows."

"Oh, it turns out it's Boss Zheng. I've heard about the name for a long time. I've heard about the name for a long time!" Wang Jian enthusiastically stretched out his hands to hold Zheng Yifan's hand. It kept shaking. No wonder Wang Jian was so enthusiastic. The steelmaking industry has always been Dahan's biggest secret. Nowadays, too many Dahan's advanced technologies rely on their advanced steel smelting technology, like artillery. Wang Jian also tried to imitate the cannon himself, but the steel technology was not up to par. Most of them exploded during the testing stage. The artillery was not fully practiced, but many people were injured.

Next, Cao Wending introduced them one by one, and they were all famous businessmen in the Han Dynasty. This made Wang Jian feel warm. If these people could be allowed to invest in Xinqin, it would not be just a matter of making money to subsidize the finances. But it is really related to the national plan.

He glanced back at He Lanxiong and the others, only to see Huang Ming sitting next to them obediently, talking non-stop. From time to time bursts of hearty laughter burst out.

Wang Jian simply sat down and said, "Everyone, please have a seat. Please have a seat. You are all gathered here today.

I don’t know why? "

Cao Wending smiled and said: "Your Majesty, do you still need to ask? Today everyone has worked hard to get to this banquet specially for the King. Naturally, it is to meet the King."

Wang Jianqiang suppressed the excitement in his heart, "Could it be that you are thinking about the development of Xinqin?"

"Of course." Wang Zang said with a smile: "Those of us have formed a commercial bank together. It is the Jishi City Commercial Bank. However, in Dahan, we really cannot afford to operate the Dahan Central Bank. It can only be said that it is We are struggling to survive, relying on the central bank to get a little business out of the fingers. In order to compete with the central bank for business, we set the interest rate extremely high, but in this way, there is really no money to make. So, we want to enter Xinqin.”

"Commercial bank?" Wang Jian's hot heart suddenly froze.

"Your Majesty, don't underestimate this bank. If Your Majesty can allow our commercial bank to enter Xinqin and become the national bank of New Qin, and can issue currency, then we can make money, and for Your Majesty, it will also be a huge source of wealth. From now on, I won’t have to worry about finances anymore.”

"But now we in Xinqin have no plans in this regard." Wang Jian said thoughtfully.

"Your Majesty, don't be too busy to refuse. In business, this kind of thing is very troublesome, so it is natural to consider it carefully. However, this is a matter of mutual benefit. Your Majesty, do you know why our Han Dynasty is so wealthy? There is something here. A large part of the credit goes to the central bank." At that moment, Zheng Yifan carefully explained to Wang Jian the working principle of the bank and the true purpose of issuing currency.

"Good is indeed good." Wang Jian nodded slightly, "But to be honest, I still hope that you can set up factories and revitalize industry in Xinqin."

Several bosses looked at each other, and Zheng Yifan nodded, "If the king can allow us, Jishi City Commercial Bank, to enter Xinqin and become the national bank of Xinqin, with the right to issue currency, we are willing to invest and set up factories in Xinqin. "

"Is this true?" Wang Jian suddenly felt happy.

"Of course we are serious." Zheng Yifan said with a smile: "This is actually one of our plans. Boss Wang, please explain it to the king."

Wang Zang nodded and said: "Your Majesty, our Han Dynasty is not far away from unifying the Central Plains now, and for an arsenal like ours, if there is no war, it will be a loss of livelihood. After the Han Dynasty pacifies the Central Plains, the top priority must be to restore people's livelihood. Revitalizing the economy, this road to external expansion, may not be interrupted, but it will definitely be much smaller in terms of scale and intensity. So we people got together to discuss it, and after listening to Brother Cao’s opinions, we felt that now Xin Qin has a lot to do. Businessmen are looking for new profit points. Now Xin Qin is going to war with the cannibals, which requires a lot of weapons, and those of us are either directly engaged in this business, or we are. The upstream manufacturers in this industry all need to make money. As long as the king allows our commercial banks to enter Xinqin, our factories will naturally go to Xinqin to settle down and open branches. "

"Are all the technologies Dahan's most advanced?" Wang Jian leaned forward and asked.

"Of course it is the most advanced technology." Wang Zang leaned forward, "Even if our factory has just successfully developed the firearms and has not yet equipped the army in large quantities, it is still possible."

"Isn't Boss Wang a manufacturer of crossbows?" Wang Jian asked strangely.

"Ever since explosives appeared and artillery was successfully developed and put into the battlefield, we have known that crossbows will have no future. So over the years, we at Shenfeng have been developing firearms. We cannot capture the artillery market, but we are doing it The research on the miniaturization of firearms has made breakthrough progress. The firearm that has just been successfully developed has been recognized by the king and he personally named it a musket. "Wang Zang said with a smile: "Now our Shenfeng can not only make muskets, but also artillery. It can also be made.”

Wang Jian took a deep breath and asked, "Does your king allow these latest firearm technologies to enter our Xinqin?"

"Why not?" Cao Wending spread his hands and said: "Your Majesty, Xin Qin and the Han Dynasty are brotherly countries. We the Han Dynasty also pay attention to free trade. Although the export of weapons industry still has to be reported to the court, since we are here today Here, we are sure to obtain the consent of the imperial court. Your Majesty, we businessmen may not be high officials, but we can still speak in the Great Council of the Han Dynasty. As long as the Great Council passes it, the King will not veto it. Over the years, your Majesty has never vetoed any policy passed by the Great Council?”

"Are you really sure?" Wang Jian couldn't believe it.

"We are definitely sure. Needless to say in the Great Council, our boss also asked the question in front of the King of Han. The King was non-committal and did not express any objection. This shows that this matter is feasible." Cao Wending said.

"Okay." Wang Jian took a deep breath: "If your factory can be built in Xinqin, then Xinqin will allow your commercial bank to become the national bank of our Xinqin, but our Xinqin court will have to hold shares . This must be related to the financial lifeline of the country.”

"This is very good." The businessmen suddenly became excited. "It is natural for the New Qin Dynasty to hold shares. Officials can also be sent to the bank to exercise supervision powers."

"Well, the day your factory cuts the ribbon and starts construction will also be the day your commercial bank opens its doors in Xinqin." Wang Jian stood up and raised the wine glass on the table.

"May we have a pleasant cooperation."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The merchants raised their glasses together.

The meal lasted until midnight before the meal came to an end. Everyone felt extremely satisfied, and everyone came and returned satisfied. When Wang Jian left the Third Military Region Headquarters with Huang Ming's support and rode away on horseback, above the building, He Lanxiong, Zhao Xilie, Cao Wending and others were staring at Wang Jian through the bright searchlights behind the floor-to-ceiling windows. The departing figure.

"Although Wang Jian is a great talent of his generation, he is far from the king's opponent after all. He cannot understand that the strength of a country lies at its root, the economy. When a commercial bank becomes the national bank of the New Qin Dynasty, it is equivalent to the influence of the Han Dynasty. They have a flesh-sucking tube installed on their bodies, which will continuously extract their flesh and blood. The economy of a country can collapse whenever it wants. To be honest, until now, I really don’t believe that Wang How dare you leave the National Bank to us?" Zhao Xilie shook his head and sighed. Over the years, he has been immersed in civil affairs and has increasingly dealt with the central bank, and has a full understanding of the terrifying capabilities of this institution.

"How much can a few factories really increase their strength?" He Lanxiong sneered. "Wang Jian took it for granted. Even if he mastered the technology of smelting steel and could make guns and cannons, a country's transportation and finances were all in the hands of others. By the time they realized it, it would be too late. ”

"This is a century-old plan, so we should plan it slowly."

"Why does it take so long? A few decades at most, the results will slowly show up." Zhao Xilie smiled and said: "When the time comes, we can also sell guns and cannons to the cannibals!" (Unfinished) to be continued.)
