Qiao Yu nodded, Wang Lingji's analysis was not wrong at all, in fact, all industrial countries have a tragic past, Britain used sheep to eat people to force farmers to work in the city, used forced methods to let workers into the factory, and hired a large number of child laborers, within a few years these workers will be tortured to a large number of deaths, the United States and Germany were also bitter and tearful at the beginning, the Americans dragged their families and ran to the west with guns to grab the territory of the Indians.

German products also started by copycats in the early days, the quality of the products was very poor, and after being sold to Britain and France, they had to be labeled and discriminated against, and this primitive accumulation stage was so cruel, and Benben, as a rising country with few resources, had to pay more.

I have to bear three times the taxes of the Chinese, and at the same time tighten my belt to support a strong navy, and now the products are also very inferior, and we can only rely on price advantages and European and American competition; in this stage of primitive accumulation, the price that the people have to pay is incalculable, and it is also when social problems break out in a concentrated manner, and it is not surprising that drugs can be sold in large quantities in Yueben.

"Ark, are the raw materials still sufficient?"

"Dashuai, now the amount of opium in Sichuan Province has dropped to a very low level, and most of it is still used for medicinal purposes, the opium we refine morphine is imported from Shaanxi and Yunnan and other places, especially the amount of opium planted in Yunnan is increasing, after Tang Jiyao came to power, he regarded opium as the most important way to make money, and wantonly expanded the scope of cultivation!"

Qiao Yu nodded, opium has become a lifesaver for the Yunnan army, and Yuntu is also famous in the original history, of course, it will be planted on a large scale in Yunnan later, but now Yunnan is much more difficult than in history, and it is understandable that a large amount of opium is planted.

"Ark, drugs are not the right way after all, you must control it well, you can't let a large amount of drugs flow into the people, and you have to keep it secret, otherwise it will be a big trouble!" Wang Lingji nodded yes, and then left, as soon as Wang Lingji left, someone walked in again, it was Wang Tianhe, the chief military policeman.

"Dashuai, what you arranged has been done!" Wang Tianhe sent the two banknotes to Qiao Yu's hands, Qiao Yu took them and looked at them carefully, then nodded and said, "It's very good, I'm afraid it's almost the same as the real banknotes!" ”

"Marshal, the anti-counterfeiting of the Yuan is very poor, the key is that I absolutely have three trees only in their own country, the use of unique paper can naturally achieve the purpose of anti-counterfeiting, but they do not know that there is also this kind of tree in Anhui, as long as the problem of paper is solved, the rest of the typesetting and printing is not difficult, I hired experts from Northern Europe, the printed banknotes are more exquisite than the real banknotes, even real experts may not be able to distinguish!"

"Well, how much can you print in a year now?"

Wang Tianhe carefully calculated: "Now the production capacity is not sufficient, and about 50 million can be printed every year temporarily!" ”

The current exchange ratio of the Yuan and the Ocean is almost one to one, and the Yuan is slightly more expensive, and tens of millions of counterfeit coins can be printed every year, even if it can only be used half, it is also a huge pie, enough for Sichuan to spend a period of time.

"Very good, I think the main thing is to print some small denominations, try not to attract the attention of the book!"

"I understand!" Qiao Yu carefully calculated that morphine plus counterfeit banknotes can definitely bring more than tens of millions of windfall profits to Sichuan every year, people must not be rich in foreign wealth, horses do not eat night grass and do not fat, Sichuan's finances can definitely operate steadily, and even more quickly carry out economic layout for World War I.

Of course, this is not the right way, the key is to enhance Sichuan's economic strength, relying on formal means to increase fiscal revenue, but now Sichuan is just in its infancy, if you don't use this extraordinary means, you can only frantically deprive the people, learn the way of Soviet Russia for industrialization, and Sichuan as a province obviously can't do it, and the current situation of government officials is not allowed to do this, and you can only use some undignified means.

"Young master, I heard that your wedding date is coming, I congratulate you first!" After Wang Tianhe reported the matter, he asked about Qiao Yu's marriage with a smile.

With Qiao Yu's current identity, his marriage is not a simple matter, Mrs. Bai is always urging, Qiao Yu himself has also thought about it, originally his father suggested that he marry some old people in Beiyang, such as Xu Shichang, Wang Shizhen and others, but Qiao Yu did not agree to this suggestion out of consideration for maintaining his reading status, but firmly chose to marry Lu Wanqing, Mrs. Bai also likes this girl very much, Qiao Lu and the two families decided the matter after discussing the New Year, and originally set the day around the Dragon Boat Festival.

How do you know that when the Second Revolution broke out, Qiao Yu led the troops to go out, so he naturally had to push it back, and finally set the date for the Mid-Autumn Festival, but according to Qiao Yu's intentions, the marriage was not ready to be a big deal, otherwise in his identity, he was afraid that all the wealthy businessmen from Yuan Shikai to Sichuan would be alarmed, so the alarm was too great, and it was not in line with Qiao Yu's habits.

The two old men finally discussed and only invited some of their closest relatives and subordinates, but Wang Tianhe was definitely within the scope of the invitation.

"Your wedding wine is absolutely indispensable, but your marriage is also going to be stepped up, I remember that you seem to be a year older than me, how about if I don't introduce you to one immediately?"

Wang Tianhe's face showed a rare twist: "Young master, don't bother, I've already found one, it's a student of a girls' middle school!" ”

"That's good, when the time comes, I will also go to your place to drink wedding wine and marry you!"

Although Qiao Yu didn't want to make a big deal, but all the people who heard the news prepared a generous gift, especially the businessmen in Sichuan Province, they all knew that this patrol envoy was not only the master of Sichuan, but also directly controlled the huge commercial resources, and there was absolutely no lack of courtesy.

The moon in the sky is getting rounder and rounder, the Shuai Mansion is becoming more and more lively, Lu Nai also rushed to Chengdu early, busy for his daughter's marriage, Lu Nai's smile on his face has not weakened these days, and it is also his luck to be able to marry his baby daughter to such a noble son-in-law.

On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the decoration in the marshal mansion is extraordinarily luxurious, the red lanterns are hung all over the cloister, the word of happiness is pasted everywhere, and the rest of the various exotic flowers and plants are innumerable, a burst of incense blows blowing, the fragrance of flowers is overflowing, everywhere are dignitaries and eunuchs, all gathered in the mansion. Talking and laughing, at the auspicious time, a couple came to the main hall in the cheers of the newlyweds, worshiped heaven and earth, and then gave gifts to the two old people, and then the husband and wife bowed to each other, completing the traditional and sacred ceremony.

Qiao Yu supported Lu Wanqing, who was wearing a hijab on her head, and sent her to the cave room, "Lady, you sit down for a while, I'll go out to socialize!" ”

After speaking, Qiao Yu gently kissed Lu Wanqing's forehead through the hijab, although through a layer of hijab, Qiao Yu only felt dizzy, almost drunk, he came to this era, he has his own foundation, and he has a person who has been with him all his life, in his previous life, it has dissipated like a burst of green smoke, and at this time there is only one patrol envoy in charge of Sichuan!
