Chapter 66: My wife wants to go to school for the second time
Ye Zhao was in a good mood when he went to school to pick up Rong'er, and the Shanghai negotiations finally made progress, and the Northern Dynasty once again made substantial concessions and was willing to withdraw the Qing army from the Susong area, but proposed to establish an economic condominium zone in this area, which was jointly managed by the Northern and Southern Dynasties and the mediator countries, and the five parties were not allowed to garrison troops here, and a management committee could be jointly established to manage the free trade zone.
In fact, Ye Zhao knew that this free trade zone must be something that was made up by the mediation of the Three Kingdoms, and the heads of the officials of the Southern Dynasties could not turn around with these many twists.
However, the bottom line of the negotiations between the North and the North has retreated step by step, which shows that the huge military pressure of the South Korea makes it extremely fearful, but it does not know that under the gorgeous cloak of the South Dynasty's prosperity, the treasury is also stretched and needs time to get a respite.
The establishment of an economic condominium zone, to be honest, Ye Zhao just couldn't accept it emotionally, otherwise it would be good to borrow the capital of the Three Kingdoms to build the Susong area, of course, Ye Zhao also knew that he was not making a revolution, and he couldn't directly repay the debts in the future, not to mention that this treaty was signed by you, if you want to have equal dealings with the West, it is impossible to abolish the treaty for no reason and nationalize all the property in this area.
Ye Zhao will never accept this article, but the progress of the negotiations is obvious, the Northern Dynasties agreed to withdraw their troops, and the negotiation basis for the ownership of the Susong area is that the Northern and Southern Dynasties are already standing on the same starting line.
The reason why Ye Zhao is in a good mood is also yesterday, he received a gold and 20,000 pound promissory note worth 130,000 pounds from Wells, which is not Ye Zhao's profit sharing in Shenghexing, but the spoils of Ye Zhao and Wells seeking benefits in the just-concluded round of economic crisis, this economic crisis is the first economic crisis that began in the United States rather than from the United Kingdom, a large number of banks went bankrupt, securities shrank seriously, Shenghe Bank took the opportunity to buy a large number of railway stocks and bank assets, and now the economy is picking up, Naturally, it was time for the two to share the spoils.
150,000 pounds, Ye Zhao sighed in his heart at that time, it seems that the letters he wrote to Wells were not written in vain, and Wells also made a lot of money, otherwise he would not have made a lot of money.
And Ye Zhao can also feel that Wells is already extremely convinced of him, otherwise he would not be so generous in sharing the spoils, but he is afraid that he will be given a large share, businessman, naturally knows that there are contacts and contacts, and there is such a person who has a deep understanding of the nature of the world's economy, so there are not many opportunities to make money?
Taihe Bank is also ready to continue to speculate in the United States, and at the same time is ready to wait for the Civil War to start taking advantage of the British intervention in the plundering of northern merchant ships to also get a piece of the pie, anyway, in the end, the British political axe will pay for the compensation to the United States, as long as it is operated properly, the private trading houses will not have any losses.
Of course, from Wells, he didn't know that the British political axe ended up paying millions of pounds in reparations because of his involvement in the Civil War, and even if he knew, he would not let go of it.
Ye Zhao really feels that the world is full of gold now, of course, the premise is that you have a deep understanding of the history of world economic development and financial history, and at the same time have a huge source of funds, but also have a collaborator like Wells who has a huge network of contacts in the most powerful capital country, plus some luck, these four points are indispensable.
Of course, gold everywhere is only for private individuals, and the little money earned now is really a drop of water in the vast ocean for a country, and it cannot stir up a single wave.
Now Ye Zhao and Wells have cooperated to buy land in Australia to find gold mines, Ye Zhao can't help but regret that he did not have much research on geology in his previous life, otherwise the Australian gold mining fever has just begun, there must be a big gold mine that has not been discovered, if he knows a little, Australia can become another huge source of profit for himself.
But in any case, Wells has nothing to say to himself, you must know that although the pound seems to be directly exchanged for gold, but directly exchanged for 130,000 pounds of gold, it is not a trivial matter, Wells must have spent a lot of effort to help himself get this lot of gold.
Ye Zhao handed over about a ton of gold to the state treasury, and he was originally going to pay it to the state treasury free of charge, but several directors of the household said that they did not agree to anything, and Lai Shangnan, the deputy director in charge of the national treasury, refused to enter it into the account like this, and the branch of the household in charge of Lai Shangnan actually had some central bank functions.
Lai Shangnan said well, from ancient times to the present has never seen such a thing, the prince did this, then the officials of the Southern Dynasty are at a loss, because the prince has already not received money, and even all the expenses of the county palace are taken care of by themselves, those who are in accordance with the regulations of the army, the leader, the hundreds of money and grain of the soldiers, the people, the new Ding, the charcoal army, the gray army, the coal army and other thousands of dollars of money and grain are no longer received, this is already incredible, and now the silver is posted to the treasury, how can there be this truth in the world?
It is because Lai Shangnan said that he would also count the gold donated by Ye Zhao as interest-bearing treasury bonds, and calculate it according to the price of gold from time to time, pay interest to the prince every year, or roll the interest into the total, and it can't really be included in the treasury in vain.
In fact, Ye Zhao also knew that the officials of the Southern Dynasties were all looking forward to themselves, and it was already unacceptable that they did not take the money, and more or less these officials would be under pressure. It is not like they can go around and get money, so do they call them to work for nothing? Or will they have no choice but to go down and raid the people?
It is Ye Zhao who also counts gold as a national debt, speaking of which, the interest is not bad, but it is enough to pay for his palace expenses, of course, he is talking about the silver expenses of those large and small stewards, as for luxury goods and other expenses, it is naturally not easy to calculate.
After picking up Rong'er from school, she had just made a small fortune with pies from the sky, Ye Zhao was naturally in a good mood, in the carriage, Rong'er was wearing a red plaid uniform skirt, thin knee-length red stockings, small red leather shoes, and a small delicate dazzling, which made Ye Zhao's heart palpitate.
Rong'er got into the carriage, and was hugged by Ye Zhao in his arms and kissed her little face, Rong'er was helpless, sweet and shy, drooping her little head, letting Xianggong be hairy, since that night, Xianggong seemed to be stunned, pestering himself every day.
Rong'er is actually most afraid of being discovered by Xianggong the secret of her bedwetting, but every time she seems to be in a daze, Xianggong has never laughed at her, Rong'er is naturally full of worries, and the strange thing is that the mattress has not been circled.
Ye Zhao knew that he was a bit of a beast, holding Rong'er, who was like a primary school student, and was pure and immature like a student uniform in later generations, his body was steaming for a while, holding Rong'er and kissing her tender little face, his hand gently caressed the crystal little knee wrapped in the thin red cotton socks, and his breathing was a little short.
"Xianggong, I want to invite Xiangyu and Full Moon to dinner." Rong'er's little face was slightly gloomy.
Ye Zhao hugged her gently, knowing why she was unhappy, today, she went through the withdrawal procedures for Rong'er, and from tomorrow, Rong'er will go to a girls' school.
Guangzhou Secondary Education School Co-Ed Branch, National No. 1 Boys' High School and National No. 1 Girls' High School, recruiting students for the primary school to receive knowledge relatively quickly and older students, of course, there are also those who have not received new education directly into the school, and this kind of people are the majority, these people are mainly former readers, Xiucai Tongsheng, etc., older, disdain to read the "primary school", but start directly from middle school.
In fact, today's secondary education also takes into account the enlightenment education of laying the foundation of primary school, but the education method is different, and the progress of enlightenment content will be faster, because the students are already readers with a certain amount of knowledge, and they are all older, so the ability to learn knowledge and understand knowledge is naturally higher.
And because it is for the provinces of the Southern Dynasties, the first batch of students enrolled in the National Boys' High School enrolled more than 500 people, and the girls' middle school was relatively dismal, with only more than 20 people, which was not enough for one class.
With Rong'er's knowledge level and ability to accept new knowledge, it is better to naturally enter the girls' middle school, although Ye Zhao does not expect her to really become a scientist, but the boring learning of the knowledge she already knows is obviously very boring, so it is only then that she helps her go through the withdrawal and transfer procedures. And Rong'er's two good friends in the primary school, Xiangyu and Full Moon, are naturally not eligible to enter middle school.
Holding Rong'er, Ye Zhao was full of desire, sticking to her little face, and said lovingly: "Don't be unhappy, you can still go to see them often, and you will always be friends, this friend is not necessarily together every day, the world is north, and friendship is always there." ”
Rong'er nodded her little brain melon.
Ye Zhao said again: "Then invite them to our house tomorrow, let's prepare well, this is equivalent to your graduation banquet, you can't be sloppy, Xianggong will help you think about the dishes carefully, and keep them eating once and thinking about next time." ”
"Good!" Rong'er nodded happily, rubbing her little face on Ye Zhao's face affectionately, and the happiness of her husband's pampering filled her careful thoughts.
"Xianggong, can I squeeze the juice for them to drink?" Rong'er naturally thinks that juice is the exclusive product of herself and Xianggong, and if she squeezes juice for others, she has to ask Xianggong.
Ye Zhao smiled: "Yes, you can give them whatever you want, aren't there a lot of jewels in our house?" Give them a pair of earrings. ”
Rong'er shook her little head and said, "That's not good, it will disrupt their lives." ”
Ye Zhao looked at Rong'er in surprise, but he didn't want Rong'er to understand this reason, but he really grew up, isn't it, Zhu Manyue's family is okay to say, if you give Xiangyu earrings, with her family's conditions and her parents' knowledge, I am afraid that there will be no trouble, and maybe something will happen, and most of the poor families will become a disaster. Pinching Rong'er's little face, Ye Zhao said: "In this case, buy more paper and pens for the two of them, and the stationery for the primary school will be covered by your friend." ”
Xianggong always has a good idea, and Rong'er let out a happy "um".
