Chapter 1375: Shen Kuo Gets Started
Su Hui shook his head: "No, it's a loan of 10 million guan, plus the initial investment of 5 million guan from the imperial court, a total of 15 million guan." ”
After speaking, he handed over to Su You: "Uncle Xiao, the imperial court's margin and the multiplier of the currency should also be changed. ”
Su You shook his head: "That's not good, this opening can't be loosened now, if there is a loophole in the banking business, the risk is too great, and now except for the special situation of Sanlu this year, it is not necessary to open this opening." ”
"Wait...... Wait! Shen Kuo stood up in fright, and didn't pay attention to his exposure: "Let the court know that it's okay?!" Guogong, you owe 10 million to the Imperial Song Bank, and 5 million to the imperial court! How are you acting like you're okay?! ”
"It's fine!" Su You spread his hands: "Didn't you say it just now, the total investment this year is 23 million guan, and I only owe 15 million guan to the Huangsong Bank, so what is the remaining 8 million guan?" ”
"Profitable!" Shen Kuo's brain was also fast, and he sat in the bath with weak legs: "You, you, you...... You made eight, eight, eight......"
Su Hui looked at Shen Kuo and said seriously: "Eight million guan, half a year." ”
"However, 3 million guan of it is the interest that should be paid to the bank, but I added it to the investment as a share, and the real profit is only 5 million kan."
Shen Kuo suddenly felt that the water in the pool was a little hot, and his head was a little dizzy: "God...... ......"
Su You said: "What are you dizzy? These are the state's, His Majesty's, Huangsong Bank's, and Sitong's shareholders. ”
"I am a transit envoy of the three routes, and what I value is the tax revenue brought by these investments and the stimulation of people's livelihood in the three routes."
"However, this year's steps are a bit big, the gap between investment and income is too large, and the imperial court is not used to this kind of practice, so I am worried about causing criticism."
"But that doesn't mean my investments aren't profitable. So the question now is how to make the reported investment amount smaller, so as not to scare the bigwigs of the DPRK and China...... It turns out that we have been talking for a long time, and you still don't understand what you are talking about? ”
Shen Kuo floated in the pool and said weakly: "Now...... Some...... Got it......"
Su You said: "Fifteen million guan and 7 million guan in addition to the income, it is still too much, and then find a way to suppress ......."
Zhang Qi said: "Otherwise, if some infrastructure investment is moved to this year, it will be said that two million of the seven million guan are prepared for the Shalan line, and the remaining five million guan will offset the seizure of the summer palace sent to Bianjing, which can almost be paid, right?" ”
Su You patted his head: "Yes, yes, yes, there are also reserves for cotton and wool, these are flowing water, and it is easy to do accounts!" That's pretty much it! ”
Shen Kuocai got up from the bath and sat down, and in a blink of an eye, he slipped out again, these people, Shengsheng had flattened out 23 million yuan!
This is also the loyalty of the Duke of Shu, if he is replaced by a person with evil intentions and has this ability, he will be able to empty the Great Song Dynasty in a few years!
After leveling the annual report, Su You was relaxed, so he talked about the Song Liao peace conference again: "The Liao people finally agreed to issue more silk banknotes, it's not easy......"
After speaking, he bowed his hand to Chao Bu: "I am not to blame and my uncle has been wronged." ”
Chao Buzhi smiled slightly: "Serve the country, thank you for letting Buzhi participate in this important event that will leave a name in history." ”
Shen Kuo really felt that he had entered a blind spot of knowledge at this moment, he was really stupid: "What is the name left in history?" Is the legend of the traitor glorious? ”
"Hahahaha......" Su You and Chao Buyi laughed together, and after laughing for a while, Su You wiped his tears: "I found that you are simply the head guard on this in Cunzhong, and your intelligence is similar to Yelu Hongji!" ”
Seeing that Shen Kuo was still in the dark, Su You said, "What did you get from the peace discussion with Liao this time?" ”
Shen Kuo felt that he was facing a group of idiots: "port, books, observatory, calendar, silk money, ......"
Su You also felt that he was facing an idiot: "The two ports, originally the Great Song Dynasty wanted to repair them, so that they could dock our big ships and dump our goods." ”
"How much will the subset of Buddhist scriptures and books such as scriptures and histories help the national strength of the Liao State in the short term?"
"The observatory costs money, but it is a joint venture, we subsidize seventy percent, and claim that it is 3.5 million guan, but in fact, the cost is 500,000 guan, and the rest is to consume Liao's state reserves, 1.5 million guan! Liao's three-year-old income! It's equal to us earning them a million guan back!! ”
"The knowledge of the calendar is relatively advanced, we can let them know what it is and not why it is, can they use the calendar to deduce the study of science and engineering?"
"500,000 pieces of silk banknotes, we will help print them, and we can also get a handling fee."
"Cut off the trade of the Yan Ministry, will the Yan Ministry be obedient? That's the Liao people themselves making trouble for themselves. ”
"With the opening of the Liaoxia border, we will be able to justifiably envelop the Tatars;"
"If the 70,000 old army is replaced by 35,000 new troops, will the military strength drop or rise?"
"The opening of Qianzhuang in Suzhou is that the Liao people handed over the economic lifeline of the southern states to us."
"Hahahaha, I really didn't expect the peace agreement to be reached so smoothly, I've always been worried that Mu Chun will be able to see through these, it seems that he was also fooled by Zhang Taiju's woolen mill, hahahaha......"
Shen Kuo thought about it, it was true, Da Song actually didn't lose anything, even if there was a loss, compared with Ningxia Sanlu's upcoming income of more than 10 million yuan a year, how could this business be profitable.
I couldn't help but say stupidly: "In the end, it's still cheaper, and there is not much harm to them, especially the big silk banknotes, according to the "Financial Theory", ......"
Su You smiled: "You are so smart in Cunzhong, why haven't you turned a corner yet?" Every Wenbao banknote in the Great Song Dynasty is mortgaged, do the Liao people have it? ”
Shen Kuo said: "They also have it, 250,000 horses of silk silk every year......
suddenly reacted: "Silk silk is a consumable!" The Liao people will definitely use it, and the silk banknotes are still worth 250,000 yuan a year...... No, it's growing at 750,000 per year! They are building towers on the sand! Sooner or later, the silk money will turn into a piece of waste paper! Sooner or later, their finances will collapse! ”
"Then we have to wait until the Year of the Monkey and the month of the Monkey are gone...... Su You asked meaningfully, "I ask you, why hasn't it turned into waste paper yet?" ”
Shen Kuo was smart in the end, he only lowered his head and pondered for a while, then suddenly raised his head with a frightened and shocked look: "I'm Da Song!" It's my Great Song Dynasty, and I've been absorbing silk banknotes on Zhangzi Island! ”
Su You nodded with a smile: "Congratulations on depositing, you have entered finance." ”
This bathhouse meeting completely refreshed Shen Kuo's economic outlook, and Shu Guogong operated an investment of 23 million guan with a principal of 5 million guan, which made Shen Kuo, who had always thought that the Great Song Dynasty was living within his means, breathtaking.
But Su You's next thing is to warn him that investment is risky, and the reason why he dares to do this is because of the strong technical strength of Sitong and the rich resources of Sanlu as the confidence, which can ensure the success of each investment.
In addition, he has no constraints in Ningxia Sanlu, and Sanlu itself is like a blank sheet of paper for him to draw, so he can create such a miracle, in fact, this is also a model that is difficult to copy.
But in any case, this hurdle has finally passed, those investments are starting to bear fruit, and the next step is the harvest period.
The economic prosperity of the three roads will surely bring about the improvement of the people's lives, the people's hearts will surely condense to the Great Song Dynasty, and the radiation of the Great Song Dynasty to the surrounding areas will inevitably increase greatly.
Seeing that the weather is about to get cold, now is the best time to travel, Su You has prepared a lot of gifts, ready to send warmth to Chongwu.
From Xingzhou to Baoketu, take a cowhide warship, and it will be very fast, seven days to arrive.
The Liao people suffered a loss of lack of knowledge, and they didn't know that the Song people had an artifact like a cowhide warship, and they were still using the method of guarding against the Xia people to guard against the Song people.
Therefore, even if Su You only uses the old army and echoes Wuyuan from the northernmost Keyi Gate of Xingqing Mansion, it is only a three-day water journey.
This time the fleet was large, with 300 rafts.
The raft has been upgraded, and with the ground butyrine rubber, the cowhide can be eliminated.
One raft is one hundred square meters.
It was a joke to transport wool to the grasslands, so the rubber tires were stuffed with medicine, fodder, winter clothes and food for the soldiers.
On the raft are all kinds of new goods, tools, and machinery.
After a day of drifting in Xingqing Mansion, they arrived at Keyimen, and after the fleet stopped, they had to go back backwards to return to the north entrance of the Great Trap Valley.
This elusive itinerary startled Rinda Hozhong, who thought it was the Tatars who had come, but the scout came to report that it was the condolence group of Yesi Waishe.
It is not surprising that it is Yesy Will, saying that he will fly to Rendo and keep loyal to Duxin.
When I arrived at the north entrance of the Great Trap Valley, I saw a cavalry team of fifty people of the New Army surrounded by a purple-robed official walking towards this side.
The raft can't carry too many horses, that's all.
Rindo Baozhong rolled the saddle and dismounted: "The last general will see Yesi Weishe." ”
Su You waved his hand: "It's okay to call Guogong or Dushuai, Renduo, you are also an official of the imperial court now, and you have to talk about the rules." ”
Ren Duo smiled, this strong party man is now the general of the Chaoshun Army appointed by the Great Song Dynasty to stay in the Grain City.
Further north of the Great Depression Valley, there is the famous Great Salt Pond, where there is a large salt industry base in later generations, which can produce 1.3 million tons of salt, 250,000 tons of alkali and 50,000 tons of sodium every year.
However, it is not the base of Suyou that wants salt industry, because there is salt alone, and it is not considered to have advantageous industrial resources in Ningxia Sanlu.
However, it is more than enough to meet the domestic demand of Xingqingfu, Wuyuan, and Tatar.
It's so capricious.
