On the night when Ouyang Xue gave birth to her son Su Huai, Su Yi stayed with her until the second half of the night, so when he saw Guo Xian, the prime minister of the Purple Moon Empire, the next morning, Su Yi yawned from time to time.

Prime Minister Guo Xian also knew that Su Yi must have slept late last night, and when he heard Su Yi say that he had sent the Military Intelligence Bureau under the military of the Purple Moon Empire to track down the mysterious forces hidden within the Purple Moon Empire, he was ready to say goodbye to Su Yi.

However, at this time, Su Yi suddenly asked Prime Minister Guo Xian, "Lord Guo, what is the current financial situation of the Purple Moon Empire?" ”

Prime Minister Guo Xian immediately said with a grateful face: "Thanks to the 30 million tons of rice and 10 million tons of canned meat that the Duke took out, it not only suppressed the grain prices of the various provinces of the Purple Moon Empire, but also made the finances of the Purple Moon Empire become abundant all of a sudden. ”

After the Purple Moon Empire signed an armistice agreement with the Orenza Empire, it was considered to have completely ended the war for almost two years, and the Purple Moon Empire suffered extremely heavy losses during the two-year war, and now that the war is over, the Purple Moon Empire's country can be described as a hundred industries waiting to be developed.

However, the finances of the Purple Moon Empire, which was almost on the verge of bankruptcy, couldn't come up with much money at all to invest in the reconstruction of the Purple Moon Empire, but fortunately, at this time, Su Yi directly took out 30 million tons of rice and 10 million tons of canned meat, and handed them over to Empress Ouyang Xue, so that the Purple Moon Empire organized personnel to sell them all over the country at the price of two cents per catty of rice and two cents of a can of canned meat, and half of the proceeds went to the finances of the Purple Moon Empire, and the other half was temporarily deposited in the royal bank of the Purple Moon Empire.

Although the Royal Bank of the Purple Moon Empire is also the only bank in the Purple Moon Empire, only 51% of the shares of the Royal Bank of the Purple Moon Empire belong to the royal family of the Purple Moon Empire, and the other 49% is held by many nobles and big businessmen in the Purple Moon Empire.

Su Yi smiled and said: "It seems that the canned rice and meat are bought well, and Lord Guo has become wealthy now, but the military expenses of the Royal Army and Royal Navy of the Purple Moon Empire are responsible for the finances of the Tang Empire, and the financial money of the Purple Moon Empire is still invested in the reconstruction of various places!" ”

Prime Minister Guo Xian nodded and said: "Lord Huiduke, the canned rice and meat are indeed well bought, now the 30 million tons of rice and 10 million tons of canned meat have been sold for almost eighty percent, and the funds obtained are about 2.5 billion silver dollars, half of which have been deposited in the Royal Bank of the Purple Moon Empire, and the other about 1.25 billion silver dollars have been allocated to the finances of the Purple Moon Empire, plus the 90 million British dollars compensated by the Orenza Empire have been paid, and there are taxes collected from all over the country every month, even if the finances of the Purple Moon Empire have taken out a lot of funds." , which has been used for the reconstruction work in various places, and now there are still huge funds of more than 1.3 billion silver dollars in the accounts of the Purple Moon Empire's finances. ”

"How much is the Purple Moon Empire's annual tax revenue now?" Su Yi asked.

"Lord Qiyu, due to the impact of the reconstruction of various places, it is estimated that the national tax revenue of the Purple Moon Empire is likely to exceed two billion silver dollars this year, which is much higher than before the war."

When Ouyang Qi, the last emperor of the Purple Moon Empire, was alive, he revoked the decree that the cultivated land under the names of hereditary nobles and honorary nobles was exempt from taxes, and at the same time, the family business of hereditary nobles and honorary nobles was taxed normally, so the original financial income of the Purple Moon Empire was much higher than that of the original Cangyu Empire.

Su Yi nodded slightly and said: "Since the Purple Moon Empire's finances are quite generous, then we should continue to invest more funds in water conservancy projects, transportation facilities, urban facilities, port construction, urban housing construction, etc., and the industrialization of the Purple Moon Empire cannot lag behind." ”

Prime Minister Guo Xian hesitated for a moment and said: "Lord Duke, the construction of so many aspects wants to be carried out at the same time, and now the 1.3 billion silver dollars in the financial account of the Purple Moon Empire are simply not enough, and it is better for the ministers to do it step by step." ”

Su Yi waved his hand and said: "Now that the Purple Moon Empire and the Tang Empire that is about to be established are already lagging behind the world's major powers, if you don't catch up, then in the future, people will come to invade you, the law of the forest between countries, presumably Lord Guo has already deeply understood, as for the problem of funds, I will find a way to solve it, by the way, how is the matter of the Royal Bank of the Purple Moon Empire recovering its shares?" ”

The other half of the proceeds from the sale of rice and canned meat deposited in the Purple Moon Empire's Royal Bank were used by Su Yi to acquire the other forty-nine percent of the Purple Moon Empire's Royal Bank.

Su Yi is going to issue large banknotes and new small banknotes in the Purple Moon Empire, and this matter is best handled by the Purple Moon Imperial Royal Bank, so that the importance of the Purple Moon Imperial Royal Bank is self-evident, and Su Yi is of course unwilling to let others still own the shares of the Purple Moon Imperial Royal Bank.

Prime Minister Guo Xian immediately said: "Lord Duke, because of the war, the Purple Moon Empire Royal Bank suffered heavy losses, and the deficit alone was as high as four billion silver dollars, and those nobles and big businessmen who held the shares of the Purple Moon Empire's Royal Bank were very willing to sell the shares of the Purple Moon Empire's Royal Bank, and now they have only used less than 90 million silver dollars, and they have already acquired the other 49% of the shares of the Purple Moon Empire's Royal Bank. ”

When Su Yi heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, "If I can take back all the shares of the Purple Moon Empire Royal Bank, I can rest assured that I can make up for the deficit of the Purple Moon Empire's Royal Bank, and I will take out another 50 million tons of rice, 50 million tons of flour and 40 billion cans of canned meat to sell in the Purple Moon Empire in the near future, and half of the income will still go to the Purple Moon Empire's finances, and the other half will be put into the Royal Bank of the Purple Moon Empire to make up for the shortfall." ”

Prime Minister Guo Xian was immediately stunned by Su Yi's generosity, even according to the selling price of two cents per catty of rice, two cents per catty of flour, and two cents for a can of canned meat, 50 million tons of rice, 50 million tons of flour, and 40 billion cans of canned meat can be sold for an astronomical figure of 12 billion silver dollars.

"This ...... Lord Duke, is 50 million tons of rice, 50 million tons of flour and 40 billion cans of canned meat too much? According to the purchasing power of the people of our Purple Moon Empire, it may not be able to be sold out in a year. ”

"As long as the price is controlled, don't hurt the peasants, it doesn't matter if you sell it for a year, and since the shares of the Royal Bank of the Purple Moon Empire have been recovered, then in the next step, I am ready to abolish the banknotes originally issued by the Purple Moon Empire of two cents, one cent, two cents and one cent, and strive to work with the Royal Bank of the Tang Empire to jointly issue large banknotes and new small banknotes."

Prime Minister Guo Xian pondered for a while and said: "As long as the free exchange between large banknotes and new small banknotes and silver dollars, silver and gold can be guaranteed, the people should slowly accept it. ”

Su Yi nodded and said: "The large banknotes and new small banknotes that the Royal Bank of the Tang Empire is going to issue will also implement the gold book system, and I have a batch of new equipment for papermaking and printing, with these new equipment, the Royal Bank of the Tang Empire has produced a set of new banknotes with strong anti-counterfeiting, Lord Guo, do you say that the Purple Moon Empire can also use this set of banknotes?" ”

Prime Minister Guo Xian smiled bitterly and said, "Lord Duke, the Purple Moon Empire uses the banknotes of the Tang Empire, isn't this a little inappropriate?" Can you get the Purple Moon Imperial Royal Bank to issue a brand new set of banknotes? ”

Su Yi thought for a while and said, "I'm just casually mentioning that the Purple Moon Empire's issuance of banknotes will be discussed with Xiaoxue later!" ”

After Prime Minister Guo Xian left the Hall of Virtue, Su Yi sent someone to find Xu Haoming.

"Haoming, now that the shares of the Purple Moon Imperial Royal Bank have been 100% owned by the royal family, then you have to transfer more credible people to the Purple Moon Imperial Royal Bank, and in the future, although the Royal Bank of the Tang Empire and the Royal Bank of the Purple Moon Empire are called two banks, they can actually be regarded as one, and the funds of the two banks will be able to be transferred to each other at will."

Xu Haoming nodded and asked, "Dashuai, I heard that the deficit of the Purple Moon Imperial Royal Bank is not small, do you need to transfer a sum of money from the Imperial Bank of the Tang Dynasty now?" ”

Su Yi shook his head and said: "I still have more than a billion funds in the Royal Bank of the Purple Moon Empire before, plus I will take out 50 million tons of rice, 50 million tons of flour and 40 billion cans of canned meat to sell in the Purple Moon Empire, and half of the funds will also go to the Royal Bank of the Purple Moon Empire, which is enough to make up for the shortfall of the Royal Bank of the Purple Moon Empire, and there is even a lot of surplus, so there is no need to transfer funds from the Royal Bank of the Tang Empire to the Royal Bank of the Purple Moon Empire for the time being." ”

Xu Haoming then said: "Don't worry, your subordinates will definitely help you firmly grasp the Purple Moon Imperial Bank, and strive to truly turn the Purple Moon Imperial Royal Bank and the Tang Imperial Royal Bank into one." ”

"By the way, I plan to let the Royal Bank of the Purple Moon Empire also issue large banknotes and new small banknotes, and directly use the new set of banknotes made by the Royal Bank of the Tang Empire, but the two countries are still not merged together in the end, is it a little inappropriate to let the Purple Moon Empire use the banknotes of the Tang Empire?"

Xu Haoming hesitated for a moment and said: "Dashuai, it is better to change the new set of banknotes made by the Royal Bank of the Tang Empire a little, you only need to change the Tang Empire on the banknotes to the Purple Moon Empire, and then it is hard to stipulate that the exchange rate of the banknotes of the two countries will always be one to one, which is equivalent to unifying the banknotes of the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire." ”

"That's a good idea, if Xiaoxue has no opinion, just do it!"
