C2801 wolf ambition (2/2)
”I collected the tax of 10 million and spent 9 million. By the end of the year, I only have 1 million silver left in the treasury …”
”But the Chinese state treasury is not like that. If there's 10 million paper money in the treasury, then it will issue 10 million, and the business will prosper, but the silver in the treasury is still under Xiao Letian's control, it will be very safe!”
”Thirdly, Xiao Letian has silver and also has a bill. He even set his sights on taxes!”
”The earliest banknotes that Xiao Letian called Military Ticket s were actually all given to their soldiers for them to use. From the very beginning, the citizens definitely would not believe that this kind of thing could be spent for free!”
”But I never thought that these papers would not only be able to exchange for an equal amount of silver, but also allow me to enjoy the preferential tax treatment!”
”Isn't this how the Northern Industrial Zones promote their currency? ”Right now, in Jiangnan's tax revenue, there is a gap that exists between the amount of money that has not been paid in the first place and the amount of money that has not been paid in the first place!”
”Everyone is greedy for small profits. Seeing that the paper money is safe and has a discount, do you think those merchants would be willing to use it? In that case, will his Notes expand? ”
Zai Chun's eyes widened when he heard it, it was truly a dry goods, although Gordon said that he did not understand, but he did have a way with it.
”Your Majesty! I feel like there's a fourth point, and that's purely my own speculation... I feel that Xiao Letian still has another thing stabilizing his finances … ”
”That is …” That is food! ”
”Look at the Chinese farms in Southeast Asia. Clearly growing rubber and spices is more profitable, but Xiao Letian has given them an administrative order requiring all reclamation area s to guarantee a basic grain production base!”
”And a large amount of food has been bought by the few big grain giants that Xiao Letian controlled! ”For example, the Four Seas Trading Company and the Michaelis Group …”
”Your Majesty, I've lived in China, fought in battles, and I've even grown so big that every year, I've even made some places rich and dry, while at the same time, others have famine …”
”In the hearts of the lowest class in China, the value of food is even higher than money!”
”Xiao Letian controls the food, wouldn't he be able to use the food to control the finance? Once the super Great Famine happened, these Chinese grain merchants would go all out and tell the victims … Only take Chinese paper money, not silver and copper! ”
”If such a thing were to happen, would the Chinese currency become the currency most desired by the people?”
”Hiss …” ”AHH!” Zai Chun inhaled a breath of cold air, his entire body was in a daze!
In his heart, he was shouting crazily, ”Not good!” This is trying to dig me out from the inside! With this, wouldn't the people's hearts be all gone? ”
”Xiao Letian! Xiao Letian... What a vicious heart! You really do not share the same heart as me! ”
”His heart can be destroyed!” A wolf's ambition, your heart can be destroyed! ”
At this point, the Great Qing's Emperor Tongzhi completely broke all ties with Xiao Letian from the bottom of her heart!
”Your Majesty, please take a rest. I shall give you a feast at noon. We, the monarch, will have a good drink!”
After sending off Gordon, Zai Chun called in Da Sixi, Xiao Sixi and Man Shun with a gloomy face.
”Alright then … Send a guest to see me... It's about time for some things to come to an end! ”
