2348 Yan State Fiscal Crisis
"We've got a power of attorney from Dawan, and they've agreed to our conditions." Li Xin took a telegram and reported to Meng Yi.
"Hmm." Meng Yi took the telegram.
"Ready, let's send troops." Meng Yi said.
"Hmm." Li Xin nodded. For this day, they had made sufficient preparations, and the Hun cavalry troops mobilized from the south had prepared five cavalry regiments, and they had also been reinforced with certain firearms. In addition, there are other auxiliary forces to help it, which is far beyond the previous preparation on the battlefield in Liaodong.
Xianyang, Qin State.
"For such a request from the Yan State, I am afraid that the Qin State is unlikely to agree." Shang Wen clearly told Ambassador Yan Guo such a reply.
Ambassador Yan Guo came here for one thing, and that was to collect taxes. In fact, it is a kind of blackmail in disguise. Yan has a big financial problem, and this financial problem has not been solved. This kind of performance appeared on the Liaodong battlefield, and in the entire Liaodong battlefield, except for the appearance of the Yan army at the beginning, there were very few Yan troops on the subsequent battlefield. Even the logistics troops did not have the presence of the Yan army.
The reason why the Yan army failed to go to the battlefield was because their financial situation was very bad. In such a situation, the Yan army was also considered a part of the coalition army, and among the war reparations of the Goguryeo people, the Goguryeo people promised to pay 1 million gold to the Yan people, but Wenyang Bank could only pay 100,000 gold and pay it in installments over five years. In this way, Yan's idea of solving the country's financial problems through war reparations fell through.
Faced with such a situation, the Yan side urgently telegraphed to the Qin government to solve the problem, otherwise, they would impose a large tax on the Goguryeo people on the grounds that they occupied a large amount of Yan land, so as to solve the financial crisis of Yan State.
"I know very well what kind of problem the Yan side is facing." Shang Wen to Xue Qi, the ambassador of the Yan State, was an old nobleman in his sixties with a more traditional mind.
"However, if Yan Guo does this, it will only make the problem more rigid and not conducive to solving the problem." Shang Wen said.
"But there is indeed such a crisis on the Yan side, and this kind of crisis is difficult to solve." Xue Qi said.
"And the Goguryeo people occupy the land of our Yan country, this is an indisputable fact, in the face of such an indisputable fact, I think, it is difficult for us to continue to maintain such a situation, and the land of Yan country has finally been recovered." Xue Qi emphasized.
"For a situation like this. I'm well aware. Shang Wen emphasized.
"But I think the fundamental problem of Yan is your country's economic policy, and the economic stimulus that your country brings. The Goguryeo issue is not conducive to your solution to this. On the contrary, the residency rights of the Goguryeo people are conducive to solving the economic sluggishness of your Yan Kingdom, and then boosting your Yan Kingdom's fiscal and tax revenues. Solve the current financial crisis. Shang Wen said.
"Prime Minister, what I want to make clear is that the government of Yan is very short of funds, and if we don't get the benefits we want from those damned Goguryeo people who occupy our land." Xue Qi said.
"I don't recommend you to do this, Chu State, South Korea is not very satisfied with the war reparations allocated, but it is already a very good plan for the bank to be able to solve the war reparations. The Goguryeo people couldn't come up with any money at all, and they originally hoped to rob your Yan Kingdom, but they were beaten out by our coalition forces. Shang Wen explained.
"The reason why they were able to accept peace talks was that they were unwilling to fight. If it continues, it will send all the Goguryeo people to death. They don't want that situation. Shang Wen said.
"South Korea, the state of Chu once united to ask the state of Qin for more war reparations, and they were in pacification, and the state of Qin lost some benefits and promised them." Shang Wen said.
Xue Qi nodded, indicating that he knew about it.
"The reason why Qin did this is because we can't excessively stimulate the Goguryeo people, otherwise, Goguryeo will still wield their destructiveness, if we appease them and take an experienced pacification measure, I think the Goguryeo people will become the economic growth point of the Yan State." Shang Wen explained kindly.
"What do you mean?" Xue Qi asked puzzled.
"Labor output, you too. Goguryeo has a relatively rich labor resource, and if the Goguryeo people are allowed to stay and give them a certain right of residence, then they will become a relatively rich labor resource. Shang Wen said.
"As far as I know, the Goguryeo people, especially the men, have begun to be recruited to work on a large scale by the Zhao side, and the large demand for miners has stimulated the Goguryeo people, but the miners are not suitable for women, if the women can stay and engage in some labor-intensive industries, the Yan side will produce more goods. Through the sale of goods, Yan Guo can also do this. Shang Wen suggested.
"Hmm." Xue Qi nodded.
Shang Wen's intention is very simple, that is, to appease Yan and solve the financial crisis of Yan State, in fact, Yan Guo's financial crisis has a lot to do with the economic policies of the Yan government, the previous high taxes have seriously hindered the development of Yan Guo's economy, in addition to these, there are a lot of unreasonable places. The corruption of officials was also one of the important factors, and these Yan countries did not pay attention to it, they simply increased the fiscal revenue through other methods, in an attempt to become rich overnight, so they were extremely concerned about the war reparations of the Goguryeo people. But Shang Wenming confessed this, and he hoped to make changes in Yan Guo through other methods.
"The Qin government hopes that you can improve your economic environment and increase investment, and in addition, the Qin government will provide different amounts of intergovernmental loans in response to the economic policies introduced by the Yan people themselves, so as to solve the financial crisis of the Yan State." Shang Wen said to Xue Qi, the ambassador of Yanguo.
"It's just that there are few such targeted economic policies on the Yan side, I don't know what kind of suggestions the prime minister has?" Xue Qi asked.
"Nope." Shang Wen shook his head and said.
"But I think the Yan government can solve the problem from Qin's banks by hiring consultants. Maybe they have a good solution to this. Shang Wen said.
"Hmm. All right. I'll tell the prince about it. I hope the prince can solve this problem as soon as possible. Xue Qi said helplessly. Shang Wen didn't know why he said that. However, if the Yan government does not solve the problem of economic policy, it is difficult for the fiscal crisis to be greatly improved.
