Chapter 255: Great Qin's Financial Plan
Shangguan Wan'er came to the café in Great Qin City.
Qin Ge held a copy of Daqin Daily, holding Kongtong's high-grade coffee in her right hand, surrounded by musicians and luthiers playing soft music, she couldn't help but show helplessness when she saw His Majesty so leisurely.
First bow slightly.
Qin Ge motioned for Shangguan Wan'er to sit down, picked up the black cowhide menu casually, handed it to her and asked, "What do you want to drink?"
"I have important things to report. Shangguan Wan'er was a little unaccustomed: "Is it really appropriate to talk about things in this kind of place?"
"There's nothing wrong with that. Qin Ge didn't realize anything: "Informal meeting, why be too serious, then let me help you...... A cup of coffee, a piece of cake, please!"
The waiter brought steaming coffee and snacks.
The coffee curled up and smoked, and the sound of the piano lingered around, making Shangguan Wan'er feel that during this time, the strings that were tight in her heart seemed to be relaxed.
This café is located on Daqincheng Pedestrian Street.
There are no common wooden windows in China around, but transparent like glass things are installed, and the light of the lanterns hanging outside can shine in, and those pedestrians who come and go are curious to look inside.
When she saw Shangguan Wan'er, a plump and tall beauty with a mature and stable temperament, she immediately stopped and pointed.
Shangguan Wan'er looked at the young emperor sitting opposite with a cup of coffee in his hand.
She suddenly decided that it was strange, probably a feeling similar to that of a young man and woman dating.
None of these ordinary people know His Majesty now, and few don't even know about His Majesty's existence, and Shangguan Wan'er generally presided over work in Tai County before, so no one in Qincheng can recognize her, and now the two of them are sitting here, as if they are really dating men and women.
But this situation will not last.
Sooner or later, Your Majesty will reveal his identity and return to the throne of the Ninety-Five.
The Great Qin Emperor has a strong industry, and the future is not only limited to China, Shangguan Wan'er knows that it is difficult to carry on one shoulder, but although it is impossible to become the sole minister of Great Qin, at least she should be one of the prime ministers, and when people generally know her, can she still sit here and drink coffee with His Majesty leisurely like now?
Your Majesty is probably also taking the time to enjoy this feeling of being hidden behind the scenes!
Shangguan Wan'er relaxed and reported to Qin Ge: "Our finances are getting tighter and tighter, but the expenditure always seems to be increasing unlimitedly. ”
Qin Ge came to Shangguan to talk about this matter.
Although the three Sus share part of the government affairs, the three Sus mainly share the work of the cultural sector and the manufacturing sector.
As for the most cumbersome government affairs and financial situation, it is still relying on Shangguan Wan'er to take care of it.
Shangguan Wan'er serves as the COO of Daqin Group and the CFO of Daqin Group at the same time, can she not be busy? Basically, it can be said that she is the busiest among all the high-level officials, among which finance can be said to be the lifeblood of a country, and she is now not only responsible for the use of the money-making machine of the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce, but also has to firmly control Daqin's finances.
While using the Chamber of Commerce to make money like crazy.
While crossing your fingers to calculate each cost.
Shangguan Wan'er must try to keep her cash flow as healthy as possible, and then work hard to keep all departments running.
Qin Ge asked, "Is the current financial pressure really so great?"
It's not just big, it's just breathless, isn't it?
Shangguan Wan'er immediately introduced the current situation, Daqin currently needs to spend countless places, among which the military industry, the army, and urban construction consumption are the largest, and the Daqin Workshop, Daqin School Palace, Daqin Pharmaceutical, and the early investment of Daqin Cultural City are also bottomless.
It won't last long at all!
There is no way to build a military industry and a basic city.
Because the production of weapons and armor requires a large number of manpower, the construction of the army also requires the recruitment of a large number of soldiers, and the construction of the city requires the recruitment of a large number of laborers, these are obviously very densely populated jobs, and the number of people and wages alone is huge.
How can you just sell books, sell newspapers, and coffee peppers?
Not to mention the endless consumption of materials and resources!
Daqin's current taxation is at a very low level.
The three important tasks are related to the fortunes of the country, although they will cause a lot of burden, but they can still survive by gritting their teeth, but this is also about to reach the limit!
Daqin Workshop, School Palace, Pharmaceutical, Cultural City and so on.
Shangguan Wan'er believes that these are not the most important tasks, and they require a lot of upfront investment, and it is difficult to return resources in a short period of time.
Shangguan Wan'er said: "Although the new army has achieved initial results, as far as I know, it still needs to be changed, and the exercises invented by Captain Wu in such a short period of time have more or less a little loophole, and he still needs a lot of time and resources to improve the army." In addition, the new army is not fully equipped, which means that more weapons have to be built......"
What Great Qin needed most was an army.
Even the construction of Great Qin City can be slowed down, but the construction of the army cannot be slowed down.
Other money-burning holes, such as the Daqin Workshop, the workshop itself consumes extremely materials, and the craftsmen are highly paid, if they continue to expand their scale, it will inevitably be surprising that the Super Town Hall is not immediately needed, as well as the Xue Palace, Daqin City......
Stop?
Are you kidding.
Can you listen to this kind of thing?
Qin Ge directly stated: "Open source is okay, there is no need to throttle, not only can it not be throttled, but what should be accelerated must be accelerated!"
Shangguan Wan'er didn't expect His Majesty to be so straightforward.
"I know you're bothered, but don't worry too much. Qin Ge looked confident and said: "We have too many good cards in our hands, in fact, we don't have to worry about it at all." ”
"What is a good card?"
"Ahem, this doesn't matter, you look at this glass. ”
Shangguan Wan'er's gaze fell on the glass here, and her shadow was faintly reflected from above.
"This is a new product made by the exquisite dwarves in the Great Qin Workshop using the high-temperature furnace of the Holy Fire Tower, how much profit do you think we can make by selling it as a commodity?"
The café in Daqin City has eliminated the traditional wooden windows.
Large blocks of glass are still installed.
The blast furnace of the Exquisite Dwarf Sacred Flame Tower heats and burns out the glass, although there is still a little variegation, but it is basically transparent, and the quality of the glass in later generations is relatively close, like this thing, in fact, the cost is very low, if it is produced on a large scale, there must be a high profit margin.
"Shangguan, I'll give you another good thing!"
Qin Ge magically took out a round mirror from the space ring.
Shangguan Wan'er originally felt very puzzled, what was so strange about the mirror, just seeing it in the mirror
Immediately, she showed an expression of disbelief.
This is a piece of glass, which can be used as a mirror, not only is it delicate, but the pores can be seen clearly, and it is very light to hold in the hand, which is far better than the copper mirror I don't know how many times better.
"How is this done?"
Shangguan Wan'er immediately thought of the value.
If the manufacturing cost of this product is not high, there must be a huge market.
"It's very simple, the glass silver-plated mirror technology, the exquisite flame tower and the craftsmanship technology, such things are still very easy to produce, and the cost is very low. ”
"It's unbelievable. ”
Qin Ge continued: "We have a lot of valuable but impractical treasures in our hands, and all of these things can be taken to the Central Plains and sold in exchange for funds. ”
Actually, it's anything else.
There are too many ways for Daqin to make money.
In fact, Daqin Pharmaceutical has developed some high-quality pills that can be mass-produced, and if these pills are sold, at least Daqin Pharmaceutical will be self-sufficient, and Daqin Pharmaceutical will be a key cash cow in the future.
Daqin currently has the most developed military factories in China.
The manufacturing of Great Qin's iron scale armor has even begun to be streamlined.
Because the armor leaves of the iron scale armor can be disassembled and forged separately, the building process is relatively simple, which reflects the increasingly developed manufacturing capacity of Great Qin.
Daqin plate armor is not so easy, because the process demand is very high, there is no way to use the steam engine, basically can only be purely manual, can take advantage of the Yin Yang Mountain three times the time deficit, and has been built two or three thousand sets, which fully reflects the technical level of Daqin's manufacturing.
In addition, there is also the casting of the Great Qin Mo Knife and the Great Qin Horizontal Knife.
All of them are the masterpieces of Kunrong blacksmiths day and night, and Daqin has become more and more mature in iron smelting!
In this case, it is possible to expand production, open a few workshops, be responsible for exporting products, mainly make ordinary iron armor and farm tools, and secretly sell them to the Chinese princes in private, in which the interest space is also unimaginable, as long as the equipment of Daqin always has an advantage, it is enough.
What is the most profitable business in this world?
One is drugs, the other is the military industry, the former cannot be done, but the latter is completely feasible
Once Daqin's military industry reaches scale, the profits from export sales make up for internal losses, and eventually it will be able to turn losses into profits, of course, this is a relatively long process.
Qin Ge said: "There is an important matter to come to you today, I hope to start preparing now, if this matter is done, we will no longer be short of money to spend in the future, even if we lose a lot of money year after year, we can still operate normally." ”
Shangguan Wan'er asked in surprise, "What is it?"
Qin Ge said: "I am going to establish the Great Qin Money Village and the Great Qin Stock Exchange in Qin City!"
Daqin Qianzhuang is the bank of later generations, and Daqin Stock Exchange is the stock market of later generations.
In these years, there is no financial concept at all, let alone any financial institutions at all, otherwise before directly lending a large amount of money, the government or enterprises can continue to maintain sufficient growth rate under the situation of debt.
There are no banks, no stock market in this world,
In that case, why didn't Daqin open it himself?
In the Ming and Qing dynasties of China, there were already institutions similar to banks, and in the Netherlands, in the fifteenth century, there was the Atesmudan stock exchange!
This shows that banks and stock trading don't have to be modernized.
Why couldn't Great Qin establish the Qincheng Stock Exchange in the second century BC?
The Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce can completely split more than a dozen sub-chambers of commerce in the city, and independently go public to obtain a large amount of development funds, so that even if it is not profitable in the short term, it can still obtain a steady stream of financial support, and the private capital will also be driven up and pour into countless industries to comprehensively promote social development.
Syllable!
The coffee cup fell to the floor.
Fine porcelain cups shattered.
Shangguan Wan'er was completely stunned: "This and this, this ......"
She realized that her brain had been completely short-circuited, and she had never imagined that it would be possible to do this.
Although Shangguan Wan'er is not particularly sharp in terms of economy, she can already feel that once His Majesty's idea becomes a reality, it will have infinite value!
Shangguan Wan'er's strength lies in her strong and meticulous management ability, but she may not be able to accept the advanced concept of finance, so these things can be handed over to her to prepare in the early stage, but it is impossible to put everything on Shangguan Wan'er.
Qin Ge felt the need to find a finance minister for Daqin!
