Chapter 1399: Let's Slaughter the Fat Pig Together
"Niangniang, listening to your words, is it already in your chest? But let's listen to it, so that we can calm down our hanging hearts. Seriously, these days, we can't eat, we can't sleep, and we've lost weight......"
said that he couldn't eat and couldn't sleep was a middle-aged fat man who weighed at least 200 people, the head of the Xie family in Mingzhou, named Xie Guobao. Mingzhou Xie Jia is a maritime businessman, mainly engaged in Sino-Japanese trade routes. Because the unreasonable Zhou Guojun and Haishang circles lived in the Japanese market, the Xie family maritime merchants gradually turned their focus to the banking industry and opened the Xie Toyo Bank, which had branches in all the commercial markets in the southeast, which was very prosperous.
"Fat uncle, you better eat less."
Wu Meiniang smiled and changed the nickname of Xie Fatzi, she is also a wealthy businessman, and she also runs a bank of Tianjin, so she can naturally get along with these businessmen.
Everyone giggled in response. Meiniang also smiled, and continued: "Just say it, there is nothing to hide from you." Wang and I wanted to set up a joint reserve bureau of thirteen states, and used the banknotes issued by the reserve bureau to exchange bank bills from each country. In the future, the power to issue banknotes will be in the hands of the Reserve Bureau. ”
Wu Mi-niang's Joint Reserve Board...... You can probably call it the "Federal Reserve", right?
Wu Meiniang's method is that all the bank bills originally issued by each family are converted into "Federal Reserve" banknotes. Endorsed by the national credit of the United States of Thirteen States.
With national credit, banknotes can be a little more stable, and they can probably withstand the current run on the tide.
However, the right to issue banknotes belongs to the "Federal Reserve", and the profits of the big banks are gone!
Several of the bank bigwigs frowned, seemingly a little dissatisfied.
Wu Meiniang's tone was already calm: "Half of the reserves in the Da Song Bank have been lost, and this loss is real!" Now that the world is in turmoil, it is even more detrimental to your banks.
The most important thing now is to live, only by living can there be a future!
If you don't want to participate in the Federal Reserve Board, then get half of your reserves back and deal with the run yourself. ”
"Well, that's not going to work!"
"How can you cope with ......?"
"yes, half of the reserves are gone!"
"Niangniang, even if we hand over the right to issue banknotes, can the Joint Reserve Bureau handle it?"
Hearing this question, Wu Meiniang just smiled bitterly: "The deficit is real...... Being tossed by Zhao Dalang like this, even if you don't count half of the reserves of Da Song Bank, the loss of our southeast is more than 100 million!
In addition, there are 100 million face value bonds, I'm afraid it will also be lost!
Combined, at least 200 million yuan was lost, and 50 million worth of gold and silver was lost.
How do you think you should deal with such a big loss? ”
How to cope?
Go belly up? Jumping into the sea? Run?
The bankers just sighed.
They not only lost half of the deposit deposited in the Great Song Bank, but also ate a belly of Song Dynasty treasury bonds, and also lent large sums of money to the commercial banks in Xuzhou and Haizhou.
All kinds of losses plus one piece, 200 million will definitely not be able to stop!
No matter how big the family business is, you can't help but lose it like this......
Wu Meiniang smiled: "I can let the United Government accept the national bonds of the Great Song Dynasty, and at the same time provide a full and irrevocable guarantee for the paper money of the United Reserve Bureau!" ”
"But where did the United Government get the money?" Ji Kui asked, "You won't be heavily taxed on the commercial markets of the thirteen states, will you?" ”
"Of course not!" Wu Meiniang's tone was a little cold, "The thirteen states business market is a hen that lays golden eggs, and we can't do the thing of killing chickens and taking eggs."
But somebody has to fill in such a big hole, don't you think? ”
As soon as the Eastern Song Dynasty was founded, it was a hole of at least 200 million!
If this hole is not filled properly, the budding capitalism in the southeast will have to die of dryness and thirst!
In addition, the Huai River has to be treated! If Huainan is not treated, it will be flooded every year. From the point of view of defending the Zhou State, flooding does not matter.
However, the New Zhou Dynasty of the Eastern Song Dynasty is now a "state of sisters and brothers", and the hole of the New Zhou Dynasty is not much smaller than that of the Eastern Song Dynasty, so it has to maintain friendly relations with the Eastern Song Dynasty......
"But Niangniang," Ji Kui frowned, "but who should we let fill this hole?" ”
Wu Meiniang said: "When I see my father, I'll talk to you!" ”
……
In the spacious cabin of the Xianshan cruise ship, Wu Haogu and Pan Qiaolian finally met their pearl Wu Meiniang, as well as Wu Meiniang's husband Zhao Kai.
Zhao Kai and Wu Meiniang came with a fleet, which consisted of 12 sand boat-type galleys and gunboats. From the Yangtze River into the canal, after arriving at the Huai River, it enters the sea route, enters Haizhou Bay along the coastline, and finally leans on the pier of Yuzhou Island.
And this Xianshan cruise ship used to meet is Wu Chengzhi's legacy, and it is also the most luxurious cruise ship in Haizhou Bay. The ship was not produced by Jingdong Shipyard, but by the city of Tianjin. The hull is wide, the hull is sturdy, and the decoration is extremely beautiful. It was a birthday gift from Wu Haogu to his father.
After Wu Cheng's death, the ship was returned to Wu Haowen. Today's meeting between Wu Haogu and Zhao Kai was facilitated by Wu Haowen.
The meeting place was also chosen on the Xianshan.
Now the New Zhou and Eastern Song Dynasty are "sister and brother countries", and the leaders of the two countries are actually a family, and diplomatic meetings are similar to provincial relatives, and they are very harmonious.
First, Zhao Kai and Wu Meiniang saluted the "two elders", and then presented gifts of filial piety. Then the "second elder" invited the young couple to dinner. It's not diplomatic etiquette at all, and there's no royal red tape. It's similar to meeting the son-in-law of an ordinary rich family.
At the family banquet, when the "two old and two young" and the coordinated Wu Haowen guests and hosts were enjoying themselves, Wu Meiniang first turned the topic to foreign affairs.
I saw her smile lightly, and there was a rare coquettish voice in her tone: "Daddy, you and Uncle Tong have been friends for many years, don't you let him live?" Even if my daughter begs you. ”
Uncle Tong is Tong Guan. He and Wang Yu are now surrounded in Yidu, and they still have 20,000 or 30,000 horses on hand. Wang Yu is good at guarding, and most of the generals under his command are new troops, with strong combat effectiveness and good at building fortifications. Wang Yu is an expert in this area!
He had another earthen wall with a bevel built inside the dilapidated walls of Yidu. As a result, after the Zhou army's artillery bombarded the outer city wall, it was useless to take this earthen wall. The artillery bombarded for days to no avail. The charges were repulsed one after another!
As a last resort, the Republican Army could only adopt the method of siege and besieged the city of Yidu.
However, Yidu is not a particularly important territory, and the failure to take Yidu does not affect the occupation of the entire Shandong Peninsula by the Zhou army.
Wu Haogu listened to his daughter's request and smiled lightly: "The military attaches under Wang Yu are all pro-retro parties!" Meiniang, the king of Donghai County, can you subdue them? ”
Zhao Kai frowned, not knowing what to say.
Wu Meiniang smiled: "Daddy, you can look up to the retro party...... They just want to get a grange. Can't I get 10 million acres of land in the southeast? ”
10 million acres?
Where to get it?
Zhao Kai was a little surprised.
Wu Haogu retreated: "Hey, why didn't I think of it?" Meiniang, if you are a man, I am afraid that the current head of the Republic of the Great Zhou Dynasty will not be able to take the turn of the third brother. ”
It turns out that Wu Meiniang is also planning to take the landlord doctor in the southeast to open the knife!
It is true that the industry and commerce of the southeast prefecture and county are developed, but it does not mean that there is no farmland to allocate!
Moreover, there are many scholars and landlords in the southeast, and in the imperial examination field, in addition to Kaifeng Mansion, almost all the state capitals rich in Jinshi are concentrated in the southeast.
For roads like Hedong and Hebei, the number of jinshi is not even as good as that of some counties in the southeast.
The prosperity of the Southeast Scholars can be seen!
And the scholars in the southeast, like other places, will not do less to evade taxes and hide land.
Take a good inventory, 100 million acres are available......
Moreover, the land in the southeast is fertile, and most of them are paddy fields, which are very valuable. As long as there are tens of millions of acres, not only can a large number of military households be raised, but they can also be sold to raise funds to fill the financial holes and harness the Huai River.
As for the revolt of the scholars...... Oh, it doesn't seem like the United States depends on them either! If you don't kill them, who will they kill?
Thinking about it, these scholars are also pitiful, not long ago they were still high above and shared the existence of the Son of Heaven. In a blink of an eye, they became fat pigs, and the two songs of the new week took them under the knife!
"Okay," Wu Haogu smiled, "Tong Guan, Wang Yu, you send someone to recruit An." As long as they can agree, I'll go and say it to San Lang.
So...... How do we divide the territory between the north and the south? ”
"It's better to use the Huai River as the boundary." Wu Meiniang smiled, "In this way, the project of controlling Huai can also be done by two families." ”
"It's okay to have the Huai River as the boundary in the north," Wu Haogu nodded, "How do you divide the south?" ”
"South?" Zhao Kai was stunned, "The south is not the sea." ”
Wu Meiniang just chuckled: "King, there are many good places in the sea and the south!" ”
"Ah......h
"The island of Taiwan belongs to me Da Zhou!" Wu Haogu began to bargain with his daughter, "Xingzhou and the Xingzhou Peninsula also belong to my Great Zhou!" ”
"Taiwan can give Da Zhou." Wu Meiniang's expression was a little cold, "But Xingzhou and the Xingzhou Peninsula cannot be transferred...... Because sooner or later, Seiju will join the United States. ”
According to her meaning, the territory that was later called the Malay Peninsula (including Singapore) was to be managed as the territory of the Eastern Song Dynasty!
However, it is not surprising that the Eastern Song Dynasty was a country based on industrial and commercial maritime trade. Of course, I will not give up "Jijiapo", a treasure of feng shui.
Moreover, the militia of the Nanyang Province of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the mercenaries of the Java Chartered Traders Chamber of Commerce, the Jinzhou Island Chartered Traders Chamber, and the Nanyang Fleet failed to take down Xingzhou Island.
Such a record also gave Wu Meiniang and Lao Tzu the confidence to bargain.
"And what about Java?" Wu Haogu then asked.
"The island of Java is all to Da Zhou." Wu Meiniang said.
"How do you divide the West?" Wu Haogu asked about the West again.
Wu Meiniang smiled, "Daddy, the West is not ours now...... It's too early to talk about carving up, so let's talk about how to work together to open up! With such a fat territory, it can't all be cheaper than Zhao Qianshun and Yelu Dashi. ”
