It is a miracle that a capital city less than fifty miles away from the border is becoming more and more prosperous, in an era when one country is perishing one after another, and one battle after another is being launched.

Xiong Jing's Wang Zhou was far away from the girder and saw the more and more dense boats on the chasm, some of these boats were transporting grain, some transporting cloth, and some were transporting large chapters, which were coming from the girder in an endless stream. The boat traveled fifty miles, and the boat on the opposite side was already dense, just like a train on the water, one carriage after another.

The boat went away empty, and returned with a full load. Xiong Jing looked a little puzzled, and he asked Wei Jian beside him: "Why is this so?" ”

Xiong Jing to Daliang, Qi Wang Tian Jian also to Daliang, this is to make a formal oath with the Qian family of various countries. As soon as Xiong Jing entered the Wei realm, Wei Jiao, who was the crown prince, greeted him, and Wei Jianwu, the king of Xinling, accompanied him from Ji Ying to Wei.

The king of Chu felt strange when he saw the empty boat entering and coming out with a full load, and Wei Jian didn't know what was going on for a while. However, Wei replied: "Your Majesty, the Qin Dynasty recently sold corn, cloth, dried meat, furs, silk, jewelry and other things, and their prices were very cheap, and the millet was only 30 yuan and one stone. When Guiyi County learned of this, it also quickly sent a boat into Daliang to buy it. ”

"Selling corn, cloth, dried meat, furs, silk, jewelry, ......" Xiong Jing was suspicious. Even if silk jewelry is forgotten, this world is a luxury, corn, cloth, dried meat, and fur are strategic materials, and they cannot be bought except for smuggling.

"Yes, yes." The crown prince Wei is the same age as Zhao Zheng, but his life is not as good as Zhao Zheng. Zhao Zheng ascended the throne at a young age, Xiong Jing also ascended the throne at a young age, and his grandfather Wei Anjiao Wang Wei Yu reigned for more than 30 years, so that his father Wei Zeng, the king of Wei, only ascended the throne when he was in his fifties, and if Wei Zeng also reigned for twenty or thirty years, then he would have to be in his fifties before he could ascend the throne.

In his thirties, he was in the prime of life, and Wei Jia did not have any twilight. The well-groomed beard and the right manners show the success of the royal education in him. He smiled and said: "The Qin people are very afraid of the king, and they know that the king went to Daliang and sold it, and the king of He is also." ”

In addition to Xinling Jun Wei Jian and Wei Jiao, the prince of Wei, Wang Zhou, as well as Zhao Ying, the prince of Zhao and Pingyuan, who also came to greet him, were Tian Sheng, the prince of Qi, who also accompanied him into Wei, and Xiong Jing's royal courtiers. Wei's fake words made everyone smile, and the historians did not miss the opportunity to show off the country's prestige, and quickly wrote this matter in the history books.

"No, the Qin people can't afford to be early, and there must be something strange about this matter." Among the people, only Si Hui Shi Yan didn't smile, and Xiong Jing didn't smile much, with Qin Ren's temperament, he instinctively felt that this was not a good thing.

"Tell the king, Wei Shang Bai Yi should ask to see." There was a notice outside the Jue Room, and it was still more than fifty miles before he arrived at Daliang, but he didn't expect Bai Yi to come.

"Summoning Bai Yi." Xiong Jing immediately said that he wanted to see what tricks the Qin people were playing.

The relationship between the great merchants of various countries and the court of Chu was full of twists and turns, and it was only after the hiring of soldiers last year that the two sides gradually stabilized the cooperative relationship. Of course, this is also due to Seleucus, the sudden seizure of the sea boat caused the overseas trade to shrink, and the Chu State can only rely on the support of the big merchants to survive this period of lack of gold and silver, in order to completely control the spice trade in the future and reap huge profits.

Among the great merchants of the Zhu family, the ancestor of the Bai family was a doctor of the Wei State, and he was born in Luoyang, which is different from Zheng Shang, Qi Shang, Wei Shang, Zhao Shang, and Chu Shang. He hurriedly came to see him, which was naturally related to the changes in the Qin State.

"This Qin people's move to have less gold is also." After saluting, Bai Yi said hurriedly. "My purchase of Qin people's goods is no different from quenching thirst, and this should be forbidden. Otherwise, it will be bad for me for the Qin people to get gold. ”

"I don't think so." Pingyuan Jun Zhao Ying said. "What the Qin people sell is the capital of the military state, and the millet is only thirty dollars and one stone, which is to quench the thirst, and I should also drink it. Qin people get gold, I get millet, what's the harm? ”

"Your Excellency's words are wrong." Nao Xin said: "Haizhou sells silk outside, and its price is low, and the person who did it is to make the Rong Wang Hu people not accept the silk of the Qin people." The Rong Wang Hu people were not subject to the silk of the Qin people, and the Qin people had no cattle and horses to use. The army drove Wang Qian's army in the previous month, and there were dead cattle and horses along the way. If the Qin people get gold, and then get cattle and horses, this will be very harmful. ”

"Exactly." Bai Yi said busily. "The Qin people sold corn, cloth, fur and other things cheaply, so that I could mint money with gold and silver, and Chu minted money, and the Hu people also received it. The former merchants bought and sold with the Qin people, all bartering, I gave salt and iron, and they gave me corn cloth and silk silk. ”

Bai Yi broke the rules of smuggling along the Yellow River. The coins of the Four Kingdoms can be exchanged for gold and silver at the Four Nations Gold Stores in Daliang, Linzi, Yingdu, and other cities. Of course, the coins of the four countries are compared every day, Chu money is the most stable, Qi money is second, Wei money is again, and finally Zhao money. The state of Zhao has died, and the price of Zhao Qian has fallen to the bottom.

"Qin people sell department stores cheaply, and the price of gold has risen sharply, before Qin land one gold for Qin half 29,200 yuan, now it has exceeded 10,000, one gold can be exchanged for Qin half 218,000 yuan. In addition, those who redeem 100 gold can be promoted to the first class. "Bai Yidao." The Qin people had little gold, so they did not want gold to flow into the Kanto region. ”

Bai Yi said this, Xiong Jing already knew what the Qin people were doing. Gold is foreign exchange, cheap department stores are exported to earn foreign exchange, and a sharp rise in gold prices is currency depreciation, and the purpose is also to attract and retain foreign exchange. In addition, it should also prohibit the counter-brigade from carrying gold out of Qin, destroying the smuggling of dollars..., no, it is smuggling gold,...... Destroy the underground bank that exchanged gold.

Capital is born without a motherland, where it is safe to hide, where it is advantageous, where it is profitable to flow. The Four Kingdoms Gold Bank has established its own credibility, and the Chu army is now on the offensive again, and the gold of the Qin State is of course flowing to the east of the Guandong. Xiong Jing handed over the Four Nations Gold Bank to the Ziqian family, saying that the Four Nations Gold Bank could dilute the national color in the hands of the Ziqian family, and the result of diluting the national color was the outflow of gold and silver from the Qin State.

This may sound like a fantasy, but reality proves that it is. Sending wives and children to enemy countries, sending embezzled money to enemy countries, and even, through the so-called internationalization of industries, investing domestic assets in enemy countries through bank mortgages, and successfully completing the large-scale transfer of capital - Xiong Jing remembered the Soviet Union, which was done by those corrupt officials during the Gorbachev period of the Soviet Union.

Money in the USSR could only be piled up in a firewood room, there was no need for the KGB, and when Yeltsin was fighting corruption, several people's commissars came to the door and found tons and tons of rubles. If you send it to the West, you can get a security guarantee, and if your children can get a Western passport and a U.S. green card, it will be safer.

"What if so?" Knowing what the Qin people are doing, the next step is to study countermeasures.

"It is necessary to forbid the Qin people to get my gold and silver to mint money, and they can sell department stores, but they can only barter, not for money. Gold and silver are not allowed to enter Qin, and if there is, they should be treated as spies. Bai Yidao.

Bartering for goods The Qin people will definitely not do it, and Zhao Ying, the king of the plains, wanted to speak but was stopped by Xiong Jing. "That's it?"

"Then it should be added to the big river, so that it is easy to buy and sell. If there are officials who rebel against Qin, they should be accepted in full. Bai Yi talked about the second point. The State of Chu hated the officials, and most of the war boats were owned by the State of Chu, so Bai Yi looked at Xiong Jing and smiled when he spoke, he was worried that Xiong Jing would not agree.

"And?" Xiong Jing didn't agree and didn't agree.

"Or you can ask the company to sell treasury bonds, deposit gold and silver on behalf of the company, and the four countries are willing to give the company a hundred and three benefits." Bai Yi's third one makes people faint. Nao Xin laughed and couldn't speak. Zhibisi has integrated the four countries of Kanto and South Korea's Hou spy (South Korea deployed Hou spy in Qin State the earliest, and the most extensive, South Korea can let the four countries support their own restoration, the most important card is the Hou spy in his hand), if Zhibisi can really sell and store, it is indeed a way.

"No." Xiong Jing didn't even think about it, and directly vetoed it. Knowing that the other side is related to the national strategy, and the eastward flow of gold and silver is only a part of the economic war, how can it be noisy and invert the cart before the horse.

Xiong Jing's straightforward objection made Bai Yi feel bitter. The spy of the Marquis of the Four Kingdoms is now all in the hands of Zhibisi, and Bai Yi has no way to order the spy of the Marquis of Wei to help, and he is blind to the internal situation of the Qin State. Fortunately, Xiong Jing then said: "The matter of consignment sales and storage and transportation of gold and silver, I know that the other company can give information, but Hou Spy is not a businessman, how can he do business?" If the Qin people set up bait to hunt and kill, what if so? ”

"Only." Bai Yi replied continuously.

"The Qin people are like this, and Zhao Di is worried." Xiong Jing thought of Zhao Di when he spoke. Qin's gold must be a combination of punches, the coins of Wei and Zhao that were previously occupied have been confiscated, and the east of Taihang was just occupied last year, and the Zhao money in the hands of the common people can be exchanged for gold in Linzi and Daliang.

"Do you know who did this?" Xiong Jing couldn't help asking.

"King Yu ......" Bai Yi and Nao Xin spoke in unison, and finally Bai Yi spoke: "It is reported that Zhang Cang, a disciple of Xunqing, is the Taicang order. ”

"Taicang Order?" The official position of the Qin State is similar to that of the Three Jin Dynasty, but it is different from the Chu State.

"The king, the subordinate officials of this great house." Bai Yi explained. "There are two officials under the Zhisu Inner Minister, one is the Taicang Lingcheng, who is in charge of the country's money, grain, and grain department stores, and is the secretary of the Zhou people; The second is Datian Lingcheng, who is in charge of the country's land rent to determine the collection of matters, and is the official of the Zhou people's land. More than ten days ago, King Qin ordered Zhang Cang to be the commander of Taicang. ”

Taicang Xiong Jing had heard it, but he always thought that this was talking about those granaries outside Xianyang City, but he didn't expect that this was an official position. Bai Yi said this, Nao Xin nodded, and he added: "More than ten days ago, Dachu News published the acceptance and underwriting of treasury bonds, and Qin Ting had a discussion. Zhang Cang practiced arithmetic for a long time, and read a lot of books in Lantai Palace, which should be dedicated to the King of Qin, and was ordered by the King of Qin to take this position. ”

After Xun Guo left Chu, Zhang Cang stayed in Chu for a while before leaving Chu - he went to Qi State, saying that Dr. Qi invited him, and then transferred to Qin State. In fact, he went directly to the Qin State, and Xiong Jing was not easy to stop, Zhang Cang was his senior brother.

Xiong Jing was not interested in Zhang Cang, but was a little interested in the official position of the Qin State, and asked, "What is the official position of the internal official of Zhisu?" ”

"Your Majesty, this is the Great Interior." Sihui Shi Yan said: "The country's money, wealth, grain, and goods are not in the palm of the big inside, but in the palm of the less. In addition, according to the Qin system, August every year is the time of great planning, so the Qin people take October as the first year. ”
