"My lord, let me introduce you to these bosses from Stone City." Cao Wending humbly bent down towards Wang Jian, and said in a low voice, as if he was a servant by Wang Jian's side, for this Cao Wending, Wang Jian has always felt very good, and he always has a feeling of lack of confidence in the face of a character like Cao Tiancheng. Now Hitchhiker completely controls the traffic and transportation industry in the territory of New Qin, and Cao Wending is the general agent of Hitchhiker in New Qin, if you really want to talk about the status and influence of the New Qin Dynasty, I am afraid that he is more important than ordinary ministers, and his opinions will always be valued by Wang Jian.

But Cao Wending has always put his position very low, as if he is really a person begging for food under Wang Jian's hands, and this behavior does make Wang Jian very comfortable.

"If you can have a good time with Mr. Cao, you gentlemen must also be people with hands and eyes, and you want to get to know each other!" Wang Jian said with a smile.

"King, these are all big bosses from Jishi City, this is the boss of King Zao of the earliest weapons factory in Jishi City, and now the Shenfeng Weapons Workshop operating in Jishi City is the largest bow and crossbow manufacturer in Dahan, and the Shenji crossbows, vehicle-mounted crossbows, and arm-open crossbows of our Han army are all from Shenfeng." Cao Wending pointed to a lean businessman.

"Wang Zang is fortunate to be able to see the king's demeanor." Wang Zang bent down deeply.

"Hurry up and excuse me!" Wang Jian was overjoyed, "Boss Wang is also surnamed Wang, maybe we were still a family five hundred years ago, hahaha." ”

"To be able to be the same family with the king five hundred years ago is a blessing for Wang!" Wang Zang said with a smile.

Cao Wending smiled and pointed to the second place: "King, this is Zheng Yifan, the owner of the largest smelting factory in Jishi City, and the quality of the refined steel is the best in my Han." ”

"Oops, it turned out to be Boss Zheng, I've heard of the name for a long time, I've heard the name for a long time!" Wang Jian enthusiastically stretched out his hands to hold Zheng Yifan's hand. Constantly shaking, no wonder Wang Jian is so enthusiastic, it is really the steelmaking industry, it has always been the biggest secret of the Han, now too many of the Han's advanced technology, relying on their leading too much steel smelting technology, like artillery, Wang Jian also tried to imitate himself, but the steel technology is not up to par, and the cannon is made. Most of them blew up during the experimental phase. The cannon was not trained, but it injured a lot of people.

Next, Cao Wending introduced them one by one, all of them are famous businessmen in the Han Dynasty, which can make Wang Jian's heart warm, if these people can be allowed to invest in Xinqin, it is not just a matter of making money to subsidize finance, but it is really related to the country's plan.

glanced back at He Lanxiong and them, but saw that Huang Ming was very obediently gathered together with them, and kept talking about something. From time to time, there were bursts of laughter.

Wang Jian simply sat down, "Everyone, please sit, please sit." I don't know why you're all gathered here today. ”

Cao Wending smiled and said, "King." Does this need to be asked? Today, everyone has hollowed out their minds to drill into this banquet specially for the king, naturally to see the king. ”

Wang Jianqiang suppressed the excitement in his heart, "Do you think of my new Qin development?" ”

"This is natural." Wang Zang said with a smile: "What about us, we have formed a commercial bank together. That is, Jishicheng Commercial Bank, but in Dahan, we really can't afford to do Dahan Central Bank. In order to snatch business from the central bank, we set the interest rate extremely high, but in this way, there is really no money to be made, so we want to enter Xinqin. ”

"Commercial bank?" Wang Jian's fiery heart suddenly cooled by half.

"Don't underestimate this bank, if the king can allow our commercial bank to enter Xinqin and become the national bank of Xinqin, and issue currency, then we have money to make, and for the king, it is also a source of money, and from now on, we will no longer worry about finances."

"But now we in Xinqin don't have any plans in this regard." Wang Jian groaned.

"The king is not busy refusing first, in business, this kind of thing is a big trouble, so naturally it has to be considered, but it's a matter of two benefits, the king knows, why our Han court is so rich, here is a large part of the credit of the central bank." At that moment, Zheng Yifanzai carefully explained the working principle of the bank and the real purpose of issuing currency to Wang Jian.

"Good is indeed good." Wang Jian nodded slightly, "But to be honest, I still hope that you can set up a factory in my new Qin and revitalize the industry." ”

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

"Is that true?" Wang Jian was suddenly happy in his heart.

"Nature is serious." Zheng Yifan said with a smile: "This is actually one of our plans, Boss Wang, you can explain it to the king." ”

Wang Zang nodded and said: "King, now that my Han Dynasty will unify the Central Plains, it is not far away, and for an arsenal like ours, there is no war, it is just a loss of livelihood, after the Han Dynasty pacifies the Central Plains, the top priority must be to restore the people's livelihood and revitalize the economy, this road of external expansion, or it will not be interrupted, but whether it is the scale or strength, it must be much smaller, so we gathered together to discuss it, and also listened to the opinions of Brother Cao, and felt that now the new Qin is promising." Businessmen are seeking profits, we naturally want to find new profit points, now Xinqin is at war with the big cannibals, need a lot of weapons, and we, either directly engaged in this industry, or also the upstream manufacturers of this industry, all need to make money, as long as the king allows our commercial banks to enter Xinqin, our people's factories will naturally go to Xinqin to settle down and open branches. ”

"All the technology, is it the most advanced technology of Dahan?" Wang Jian leaned forward and asked.

"Nature is the most advanced technology." Wang Zang leaned forward, "Even if our factory has just been successfully developed, it is okay to equip the army with firearms in large quantities." ”

"Isn't Boss Wang producing bows and crossbows?" Wang Jian asked strangely.

"Since the advent of explosives, the successful development of artillery and put into the battlefield, we know that the bow and crossbow are about to have no future, so over the years, we have been developing firearms, and we can't grab the artillery market, but we have made a breakthrough in the research on the miniaturization of firearms, and the firearms that have just been successfully developed have been affirmed by the king and named them muskets himself." Wang Zang said with a smile: "Now our Shenfeng can not only make muskets, but also artillery."

Wang Jian took a deep breath, "Your Great King allows these latest firearms technology to enter our Xinqin?" ”

"Why not?" Cao Wending spread his hands and said: "King, Xinqin and Han are brotherly countries, our Han also pays attention to free trade, although the export of weapons industry still has to be reported to the imperial court, but since we appear here today, we are naturally sure to obtain the consent of the imperial court, the king, we are businessmen, or not a big official, but in the Great Council of the Great Han, it is still worth speaking, as long as the Great Council passes, the King will not veto, these years, the King has never vetoed any policy adopted by the Great Council?" ”

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

"There must be certainty, there is no need to say that the Great Council has spoken, our host has also probed in front of the King of Han, and the King is noncommittal and has no clear objection, which shows that this matter is feasible." Cao Wen said.

"That's good." 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 Imperial Court will have a share." After all, this must be the financial lifeblood of the country. ”

"That's very good." The businessmen were immediately excited, "It is natural for the new Qin court to occupy shares, and it can also send officials to the bank to exercise the right of supervision." ”

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

"May we have a happy cooperation."

"Thank you, Great King!" The businessmen raised their glasses in unison.

The meal was eaten until midnight, and everyone was extremely satisfied. When Wang Jian, with the support of Huang Ming, left the headquarters of the Third Military Region and left on horseback, above the building, He Lanxiong, Zhao Xilie, Cao Wending and others were behind the floor-to-ceiling windows, staring at Wang Jian's departing back through the bright searchlight.

"Although Wang Jian is a generation of heroes, but after all, he is far from the opponent of the king, he can't understand that the strength of a country, falling on the root is the economy, when the commercial bank becomes the national bank of Xinqin, it is equivalent to the Han on their body to install a flesh-and-blood pipe, will continue to extract their flesh and blood, a country's economy, when he wants to collapse when he collapses, to be honest, up to now, I really don't believe that Wang Jian actually dares to hand over the national bank to us to take care of." Zhao Xilie shook his head and sighed. Over the years, he has been immersed in civil affairs, dealing with the central bank more and more, and has developed a full understanding of the institution's capacity for terror.

"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 himself, but a country's transportation and finances all fell into the hands of others, and when they understood, it would be too late."

"This is a hundred-year plan, and it should be planned slowly."

"How can it take a hundred years for so long? Decades at most, the results will be slowly revealed. Zhao Xilie smiled and said: "When the time comes, we can also sell guns and cannons to the big cannibals!" (To be continued.) )
