Chapter 632 Stocks
"Slowly, this is the stock you ordered me to make before you left last year."
He Bin, who was in charge of Liaodong Yinhao, took out a few pieces of paper one foot long and three inches wide from his baggage and put them on Yang Chengying's desk.
The piece of paper is made according to the specifications of the treasure banknote, and at the top is written a line - the stock of the Liaodong Ocean Trade Chamber of Commerce.
In the lower left corner of the top, the stock number is printed.
Further down the line is the specifics.
From right to left, it is written the year of the establishment of the Chamber of Commerce, the date of issuance, the total amount of shares, the amount of each share, the name of the shareholder (empty), and the number of shares.
Finally, the name of the president of the chamber of commerce and the name of the president of the chapter.
At the bottom, there is a line of small letters, which reads - Liaodong Yinhao Lushun Port Branch Producer.
"Not bad!" Yang Chengying nodded, "It can be seen that you, Cao Zhenyan and the others have worked hard." ”
"Xie Jingluo complimented."
He Bin scratched his head and said, "Is there any difference between this stock and paper money?" ”
"Paper money is money, and stocks are the equivalent of the people asking the squire for loans."
Yang Chengying explained with a smile: "Ocean trade is very expensive and very profitable. In the past, others refused to join the gang because they were afraid that we would mess up and they would lose all their money.
Now with the shares, they can buy them for money, and they are allowed to transfer them.
We'll be able to save a lot of money and spend it where it should be. ”
When He Bin heard this, his eyes lit up: "Okay, this is called 'no capital trading'." ”
"How can it be 'without capital', my warship is the capital, and there is also the land of Liaodong."
Yang Chengying said with a smile: "There is no business without capital in this world. ”
"Then, the subordinates will start to send it out."
He Bin suddenly remembered something, and asked again: "Paper money can be exchanged for silver, right?" ”
"Yes." Yang Chengying nodded.
As soon as the banknotes came out, Yang Cheng was not allowed to exchange them for silver.
Not only to prevent counterfeiting, but also to prevent production, which can easily cause inflation.
Today, the banknote reserves have come up, infinitely close to the reserves.
It is allowed to open paper money to buy silver taels.
The rich merchants were waiting, and no one wanted to run around with a heavy amount of silver.
"Be careful not to exceed the reserve too much when issuing it, if it is issued indefinitely, the banknotes will soon become a blank slate like treasure money."
Yang Chengying admonished.
"Okay, don't worry." He Bin put away the stock and retreated.
Stocks, not born out of thin air, but appeared with the needs of business activities.
One of the world's earliest stocks, dating back to 1606, was the Dutch East India Company.
In order to further expand overseas trade, they obtained funds by issuing shares.
Yang Chengying should do the same.
Moreover, unlike foreign countries, Liaodong's overseas sales are mainly cloth.
It's all about productivity.
For example, in the Li Dynasty, his people basically relied on cloth trading.
The Wa Kingdom was dominated by millet, so Tokugawa Yoshimune was also known as Mi Gongkata.
Yang Chengying replaced the previous vouchers with stocks, and used cloth as an anchor to firmly stabilize the profits of ocean trade.
Not only can it strengthen the Chamber of Commerce itself, expand the strength of the navy, but also feed back to the army.
In order to determine the production of cloth, Yang Chengying came to the textile branch in Quang Ninh.
This is a factory dominated by female workers, and men are not allowed to enter or leave at will.
Even Yang Chengying only brought one or two retinues.
There is no need to worry about being assassinated, there are female soldiers in the women's barracks in the women's factory.
The director of the branch is Chen Bangxuan's wife, Cai'er.
She is already a mother of two.
Seeing Yang Chengying, it was also different from before, and he gave a respectful salute.
"I heard Chen Bangxuan say that your wife is the same at home and in the factory, and she is in a hurry."
Yang Chengying observed the loom while laughing and joking with Cai'er.
Cai'er said: "That's because he's lazy." When I came home from vacation, I refused to even supervise my children's schoolwork. ”
"Hahaha...... He is fighting hard outside, you should be more considerate of him. ”
"Heh, what does he call hard? The real hard thing to fight is Anshan, where the Tartars and our army have all kinds of confrontations, and they are fighting every day. ”
"You know this."
"That's right, there are men here on the front line in Anshan, and they came back on vacation."
"Oh? What else did he say? ”
"Nothing else, the main thing is that I found out that Tartars are actually very cunning and often make fake accounts."
"That's right."
Yang Chengying laughed.
A person's physical strength and energy are limited, and if you do the same thing for a long time, you will get tired.
This is why the system of compulsory military service and discharge exists.
It is clear that the Houjin army has experienced a situation of fatigue after a long battle.
As he walked, Yang Chengying looked up and saw the water turning spinning wheel.
Powered by hydropower, the number of spindles in the driving car is up to 32 spindles, which are mainly used for adding and adding hemp wisps.
It can spin more than 100 catties of linen yarn every day, and the effect is more than 30 times that of the pedal three-spindle spinning wheel.
"You invented this?" Yang Chengying asked.
"No, it was brought from the Central Plains by a woman named Fanggu."
Cai'er shook her head regretfully: "It's a pity that you can only spin hemp yarn, not cotton." ”
"What did Aunt Fang do before?" Yang Chengying asked.
"It was also a weaver, the thief army entered Henan, her man was killed while defending the city, and she fled to Shandong with the fleeing villagers. I happened to meet us recruiting skilled workers locally, so I came to Liaodong. ”
There are only a few words, and it is bitter and difficult to finish.
Yang Chengying thought for a while, and then said, "You invite her over, I have something to ask her." ”
"Okay."
Cai'er beckoned, and a female worker stepped forward.
She muttered a few words in the female worker's ear.
The female worker nodded, turned and left.
After a while, a thin woman with a slightly haggard face was brought by a female worker.
She had obviously not seen the big names and was a little scared.
As soon as he saw Yang Chengying, he had to kneel.
Cai'er hurriedly pulled her back: "Jinglu doesn't allow anyone to kneel on him, you stand and talk." ”
Fang Gu nodded nervously.
Yang Chengying smiled: "You don't have to be afraid, I just want to ask you a few questions." ”
"Jingluo, excuse me." Fang Gu lowered her head.
"Is your family using this all the time? You learned it yourself. ”
Yang Chengying pointed to the water-to-large spinning wheel.
"It has been used for generations, but it was destroyed because of the war. I...... After the grass people came to Liaodong, they made this big spinning wheel from memory. ”
Fang Gu stammered, her expression was very unnatural.
Cai'er took over the conversation: "She was rewarded for this." ”
Fang Gu lowered her head shyly.
Yang Chengying smiled: "It should be like this." It's amazing to be able to replicate a big spinning wheel from memory. ”
"Xie Jingluo complimented." Fang Gu said.
"The foot spinning wheel is a textile wheel propelled by the strength of the feet, and the water to the large spinning wheel is driven by water."
Yang Chengying was kind and persuasive: "Aunt Fang, do you think there is anything else you can rely on to push the textile wheel?" ”
Fang Gu didn't dare to answer.
Nana was on the side to encourage her.
She thought for a moment and replied, "By the wind." ”
