2319 Development Overseas
"I wonder if there is any solution for him?" He knew that no matter what he thought, he couldn't come up with a better way than the problem Fan Zeng thought of. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Prime Minister Qin said that the root of all problems is economic problems." Fan Zeng said at this time.
"Hmm. The economy is so important, I don't know if Mr. has a financial plan? At this time, he asked.
"This." Fan Zeng hesitated.
"Childe, there are some problems that we have to think about in advance." Fan Zeng said at this time.
"I don't know what plans the prince has after he ascends to the throne?" Fan Zeng asked unceremoniously.
"This." Suddenly, he asked such a question, and he was a little caught off guard, and he didn't know what to do after he ascended the throne. The problem now is to ascend to the throne, and as for what happened after ascending to the throne, he suddenly felt that it was difficult to solve. And such a question, he has not thought about it.
"I really haven't thought about it." He shook his head and said.
"Actually, Childe, this question is exactly what I think, what the people of Qin Guo think, and what those banks are thinking." Fan Zeng said at this time.
"Oh. Why? Negative asked curiously at this time.
"Childe, the problem of Chu is actually an economic problem. The reason why the king of Chu could not continue to be in office was that the economy of Chu was on the verge of collapse. And the reason why Gongzi was able to become the king of Chu was because Gongzi wanted to solve this economic problem. Fan Zeng said.
"Tell me, how does my Chu State develop?" Negative thought that what Fan Zeng said made sense, economy, this word, at first negative did not notice. But he has seen how Korea is developing, how Qin is developing, and Zhao is currently in active development. Judging from the current dynamics of the wars in various countries, it seems that all countries are desperately trying to develop their own economies, and the war seems to be fighting for the economy. This is a profound question. He believes that on this issue, the state of Chu is also facing a profound economic problem, and this economic problem will not be solved. His position as the king of Chu will never be peaceful. This is true of the Queen of Korea, and so is Li Mu of Zhao State.
"The so-called economic problem is how our Chu State develops itself, I have studied the current situation of our Chu State, all the industries that can make money have basically been monopolized by our nobles. Economically, these aristocrats occupy absolute financial resources. Their number may be less than five percent of the population of the Chu State. But they controlled more than ninety percent of the wealth of the Chu State. The other 95 percent of the Chu people have only 5 percent of their wealth, and the distribution of wealth is absolutely unbalanced. Fan Zeng said.
"Hmm." He nodded. Although he didn't know the gap between the rich and the poor, he still felt that the problem was here.
"The nobles are a great threat to the throne of Gongzi, but we also need these nobles, but we need to handle the relationship between the nobles gently, and at the same time, we must give great encouragement to the people of Chu and the merchant groups that we support strongly." Fan Zeng said.
"What's the how?" I was a little anxious.
"Overseas." Fan Zeng said solemnly.
"Overseas?" For the first time, he became aware of overseas.
"Yes, overseas, our Chu State should actively develop overseas, so that we can divert many contradictions in our Chu State. For example, the problem of wealth inequality can be solved through active overseas expansion, and with wealth, it will become very greedy. Because they want more wealth. Moreover, the land bonds we issued, Chu State does not have so much land to cash, the only way is to include overseas land, those ownerless land. Fan Zeng said.
"Hmm. You're right, very right. These are very useful to us. When I heard this, my heart blossomed. He felt that what Fan Zeng said was too reasonable.
"Also, there are too many troops at the moment. We have more than 200,000 troops in our hands, and the financial pressure to provide for them is very enormous. Fan Zeng said.
"If we follow the reorganization plan of the Koreans, it is very likely that our Chu State will have more than 500,000 troops in the future, and with such a huge army size, our finances are too large. We might as well disperse these armies and make them the vanguard of our expansion. In this way, the money we spend will have the possibility of recovering the cost and generating profits. Fan Zeng continued.
"Yes. You are very right, our Chu State should develop like this. If we do not develop in this way, it will be difficult to solve many problems in our Chu State. He said.
"Childe, the reason why I am talking about this matter is because our financial situation has deteriorated too much, and this matter cannot wait until after ascending to the throne, we can do it now, we can develop some enterprises in the state of Chu, and these enterprises can make some preparations for expansion in advance." Fan Zeng said.
"Hmm. You're right, I'll see it. Mr. Fan is in charge. The specifics can be left to Mr. Fan. He said to Fan Zeng.
Fan Zeng just nodded. As for the specific development, he himself did not have a good opinion, and he thought that what Fan Zeng said was very reasonable, so he did so.
In the state of Chu, there are indeed contradictions of one kind or another. The number of contradictions has exceeded Fan Zeng's own imagination, but how to solve these contradictions. Fan Zeng believes that the most important contradiction comes from the economy, and as long as Chu can develop the economy well, all problems can be solved well.
However, there were still great class contradictions in the Chu State. The aristocracy controlled most of the resources in the Chu state. And the negative was supported by the merchants of the Chu State, and they wanted to balance the nobles of the Chu State. It is necessary to rely on the strength of the merchants. How to give businessmen great opportunities, the development of overseas is one of the most important opportunities.
"How? Mr. Fan? An obese businessman asked Fan Zeng anxiously.
"Hmm. Not bad. Business can go on. Fan Zeng said.
"Mr. Fan, don't worry, we will definitely do your part." The fat merchant said with a smile. With the support of the army of the Negative Prince, his business will definitely do a lot.
"Hmm. If you do well, there will be more business, and such a business is indispensable to you. Fan Zeng said. For this money, Fan Zeng will not attach too much importance to it. After all, he was not interested in such a thing. It's just that all business activities have to go on like this now. He had to do it too.
