The weapon tycoon who traveled to Daqin

"Okay. Let's go to parliament to resolve this matter." Zhang Er also said angrily. Zhang Er was already very annoyed with Chen Yu's continuous increase in military expenditure. Zhang Er believed that the current government should try its best to avoid such a situation.

A large-scale decisive battle, but Chen Yu thought that it could be achieved through a decisive battle

Solve. Chen Yu wanted to solve all the problems as soon as possible, especially the construction of the southern railway. Zhang Er believed that the current Wei government's expenditures were too large, especially on the issue of military expenditures. The continuous expansion of military expenditures has a negative impact on the situation.

For the Wei government that had just started, it was a mountain of heavy pressure.

"The parliament meeting will be held later," Zhang Er said.

"Well, the parliament will definitely make a wise decision on this matter." Chen Yu said. Then he left.

Zhang Er wanted to speak, but didn't know what to say.

Zhao Guo Handan. Headquarters of Qin Guo Wenyang Bank Zhao Guo Handan Branch.

"Manager, we have sold a lot of gold today, and half of the batch of gold that arrived today has been sold. The current ratio has increased to two hundred and seventy-two gold. This ratio is still very high."

One of the executives said excitedly.

"Well, the price is indeed very high." The general manager nodded.

"Continue tomorrow. If necessary, you can extend my business hours. Tomorrow morning. I think I can open the door at five o'clock and still open at eight o'clock in the evening. That's it." The general manager arranged.

"This." The executive looked at the general manager worriedly.

"Don't worry, you have your own overtime pay. These are all regulated," the general manager said.

"No, no, no, it's not these." The executive said, waving his arms at this time.

"Then work overtime. The above things are not something we can think about. We also have situations that we may not be able to understand. Let's complete this matter as soon as possible." said the general manager of the branch.

"Yes. Manager." The executive nodded.

The gold transported from Qin has been sold on the market. The demand of the people of Zhao seems to be getting stronger and stronger, and there are more and more mortgage loans. A large number of loans have been distributed to the nobles, ordinary people of Zhao, and even some

Officers in the army also began to use military expenditures to purchase gold. This had a great influence on the State of Zhao. As a result, the demand for gold in the State of Zhao was extremely strong. Almost as soon as the gold of the State of Qin arrived, it could be sold out quickly.

.

However, under such circumstances, in order to make the market more lively, the Wenyang Bank of Qin State also sent some personnel to rush to buy gold while the people of Zhao State were rushing to buy gold, trying to drive up the price as much as possible. As a result, the price of gold was extremely high.

Signs of tightness.

The general manager reports the situation here in a report and submits it to the headquarters, which must make specific responses to all situations.

Wenyang Bank Headquarters. Although the off-duty time has already passed for more than an hour, there is still no sign of off-duty get off work here.

"From the report, the situation is very favorable to us. The gold we bought later was much higher than the price we sold before. It seems that the market is extremely enthusiastic." A senior executive analyzed.

"Yes." Ying Yu nodded and looked at everyone.

"This shows that the market may continue to rise in a short period of time. The gold we delivered before was actually sold out in a short period of time. If it is not controlled intentionally, out-of-stock situations will still happen."

Ying Yu said.

"It will indeed be like this. However, Chairman, our gold will be continuously transported to Handan in Zhao State. There will only be more and more gold. Now it depends on how much the private market in Zhao State can bear." Another executive

At this time, he pushed up his glasses and said.

"That's right. Today's batch can be consumed quickly. This shows that the market is still very large. What we shipped today is only two-tenths of the other total. We will increase the shipment volume tomorrow. Tomorrow is

Our last day of comprehensive transportation. Starting from the day after tomorrow, Qin’s railway transportation will make adjustments." Ying Yu continued.

"Therefore, we must increase the amount of gold shipped tomorrow. This is the last crazy moment of our battle." Ying Yu said.

"Yes. Chairman." Everyone nodded. Qin State Wenyang Bank had ordered a large number of train tickets before. In addition, it takes a certain amount of time for Qin State train transportation to be dispatched. Therefore, Wenyang Bank will change the overall transportation plan at the same time.

There is a two-day shipping time. This is the guarantee for Wenyang Bank of Qin to obtain the maximum shipping volume. And tomorrow, the final shipping list will come out. A large number of shipping plans have been determined.

Qin State General Staff.

"General Meng Tian has been here many times. Arrangements need to be made." Yang Duanhe said.

"Yes." Wang Jian nodded. Because Meng Tian was relatively close to Monk Wen, he received a certain amount of ostracism in the army. Especially this time he went on patrol with the King of Qin. After being transferred back from the north, Meng Tian was never transferred back. This made Meng Tian

I feel very distressed because it is so boring to have free time.

Therefore, Meng Tian wanted to be transferred to other lines of defense. He wanted to go to the front line. But Wang Jian withheld the transfer order and refused to issue it. This made Meng Tian very distressed. Perhaps because of Meng Yi's relationship, after all, Meng Yi is the deputy prime minister and is also in charge of certain matters.

There are also irreconcilable conflicts with the generals regarding financial expenditures.

"I know." Wang Jian said.

"Meng Tian is indeed a good general, but it is not very good to use it in defense strategy. It's not that I don't do it, but there is no place to go." Wang Jian said his reasons. The entire military is currently in a state of repair, and the significance of the Ministry of National Defense is more important.

It's more serious. Meng Tian and the Prime Minister's Office entered the Ministry of Defense. I think the problem is not too big. They should go to the Ministry of Defense, not our Staff Department. It is simply impossible for the Staff Department to reasonably put Meng Tian in a reasonable position.

"Well." Yang Duanhe also knows that the current situation of the military is very bad. There is no war to fight, and the situation of the military is not good. The current situation of the military is that it is defensive everywhere and there is no active offensive direction. Military expenditures

If it is reduced, it will be difficult to fight. Under such circumstances, Meng Tian's situation will be difficult to arrange.

"Let Meng Tian go find the Ministry of National Defense. Maybe the Ministry of National Defense has a position. The role of the Ministry of National Defense is far greater than that of our staff department," Wang Jian said.

"Yes." Yang Duanhe nodded.

"The current role of the Ministry of National Defense is indeed far greater than ours." Yang Duanhe nodded. He agreed with Wang Jian's view. The current role of the Ministry of National Defense is indeed far greater than that of the General Staff Department. After all, the Ministry of National Defense is a comprehensive political department.

Departments considering economic factors and military factors have far more considerations than the Ministry of National Defense, which thinks from a purely military perspective.

"Let's settle it like this. Transfer Meng Tian to the Ministry of National Defense." Wang Jian said. In this way, Meng Tian was transferred from a front-line commander to the Ministry of National Defense of Qin.

The Ministry of National Defense of the State of Qin. As a newly emerging department, the Ministry of National Defense has many things to be busy with.

"As for the issuance of military licenses, we should proceed as soon as possible, and launch an attack as soon as the weather permits. If those trading companies do not have licenses, they will be detained by our army, and a big trouble will inevitably happen.

." Wei Liao said anxiously to his department manager.

"Yes, sir, these things should indeed be done this way," the department head said.

"It's just that the issuance of qualification licenses in this way requires a lot of personnel to review. Should the Prime Minister give up some power? Otherwise, our Ministry of National Defense will be too busy." said the department head.

"Well. I will talk about this matter. Now you should do it quickly and don't delay it. If this continues, it will be very detrimental to us." Wei Liao said.

Wei Liao quickly walked into his office. On his desk, there was a transfer order from the staff department. Wei Liao picked it up and looked at it.

"Well, Meng Tian was transferred to our place. The situation is very good." Wei Liao said.

On the other side, Meng Tian was also surprised after seeing the transfer order. He also thought that he could return to the battlefield, but he did not expect that he would be transferred here. This was far beyond his expectation. Although there was some surprise, Meng Tian still

I am willing to accept such an appointment. Because being able to enter the Ministry of National Defense may mean more than staying on the front line.

Inside the Wei government camp.

"The meeting held today seems to have been proposed by Zhang Er and Chen Yu respectively," a businessman councilor said. At the beginning, the councilors were all elected, but this businessman's councilor status was donated through taxes.

Say, he is a taxpayer in the true sense.

"I'm not sure about this. However, it seems that the matter discussed is quite serious." A man in civilian clothes said at the side. He had yellow teeth and extremely wrinkled face, and he looked like an honest man.

"Oh." The businessman councilor ducked away at this time, because the other party had severe bad breath, and a smell of garlic hit his nostrils.

"This meeting has officially begun." Zhang Er and Chen Yu came in. Chen Yu looked serious and looked at the ground without saying anything.

"The topic of today's discussion is: Which direction does the current fiscal policy lean toward?" Zhang Er said on the stage.

"Should we expand armaments or build and stabilize the current situation? Build our own country like South Korea." Zhang Er said.

Hearing such a topic, the MPs in the audience immediately started discussing. They are used to the practice of this kind of parliament. Many matters that cannot be resolved are brought to the parliament for discussion, and their opinions can be fully listened to, so that the policy is closer to reality.

Rather than being unrealistic.

"If it is used to expand armaments, it will definitely cost a lot. Even those muskets are expensive. This is very unfair to us." said a member of parliament who relies on working to make money. He came to the refugees

Camp, I found a job. The money for this job was very small, but it provided a lot of materials, such as food, stoves for heating in winter, coal, various clothes and quilts, etc. These things were enough to feed a family.

This is already very satisfying for them.

"We have finally earned some money. With this money, we can buy some meat for our children. If we expand armaments and fight, we will have to pay taxes. We have to give the meat money to this government. In this case, we will definitely be dissatisfied.

"Yes." The working congressman said about his actual situation.

"Well, that's true." Another congressman also had the same feeling. Because they know very well that if the current government chooses to expand armaments, it will have to levy higher taxes. In this case, for them, it is a kind of

Burden, such a burden is relatively heavy for them.

"So, may I ask the consul, what would you choose?" A member of parliament raised his hand and asked.

"Consider our current actual situation." Zhang Er looked at the congressman and said.

"I will choose to use this part of the funds for the construction of Wei State." Zhang Er said.

"Yeah." Some congressmen said with relief.

"But I object." At this moment, Chen Yu stood up and said.

At this time, the members of the House of Representatives looked at me and I looked at you. Obviously they didn't know what the other party would think.

"The current financial situation of Wei State has extremely deteriorated, and the current situation has only improved a little." Chen Yu said at this time.

"The reason why we are expanding our armaments is because there are more Wei people like us who are still under the tyranny of King Wei. When we are fed and clothed, we should think about the fact that the same people still exist in Wei."

Chen Yu stood up and said. After hearing this, some congressmen lowered their heads,

They also know that their current situation has improved a lot, which has to be said that they are lucky. However, think about other people. They are parliamentarian representatives and are elected to represent many people. However, the current situation cannot be

Don't let them think about their own interests.

"Not only that, we are always under attack from King Wei's army. Compared with our militia, King Wei's army is still very large in number and poses a great threat to us. If we cannot eliminate this threat, we will not be able to rest assured.

Safe work, safe farming, and safe life. This threat is very big." Chen Yu said.

"There is also economic construction. This is an important plan proposed by the people of Qin. Currently, we rely on South Korea. The power of Qin has revived our economy. Our situation has improved, but it is only improved. If we open up the north and south

Channel. After developing, especially after solving the threat in the direction of Daliang, we can go south to Chu State and get rich quickly with the help of Korean products. There will be more workers, and we Wei people will not need to migrate out on a large scale.

, go to work, this is a good thing. A good thing." Chen Yu said.

After hearing this, some congressmen felt that Chen Yu's idea seemed so unfavorable on the surface, but if it was actually implemented, there would be certain benefits.

"Doing the economy is equivalent to doing business. If our Wei government treats the financial funds in its hands as a business, if we don't invest and do bigger business, the situation will be very serious for us.

Very bad." Chen Yu said.

"If we rely on the current funds for investment, we will indeed have a very safe income, but the overall situation of our country Wei cannot be changed. By expanding the army and preparing for war, we can gain greater benefits. We should take a risk." Chen Yu encouraged.

The businessman councilors already had some concerns after hearing this.

, he felt that if this was regarded as a business, perhaps it would really be possible to make a lot of money. This would be an opportunity for Wei Guo. However, other congressmen were a little conservative. They believed that it would be better to advance slowly. This way

It is better to be more cautious when taking risks.

"If we want to expand our military and prepare for war, we need to recruit soldiers and purchase weapons. All of this requires a lot of financial funds. We don't have much money at all at the moment. Where does this money come from?" asked a congressman.

"Currently, all the taxes levied are commercial taxes and personal income taxes. Those of us who live on wages don't earn much money. If we pay taxes, wouldn't it be even more difficult?" said a working-class congressman, clapping his hands.

.

"The situation of our merchants is not good enough. Although the existence of King Wei is still a big threat, don't forget. If more Wei people enter our territory, there will be more people who need to work, so

If this continues, our situation will not be good." A businessman councilman persuaded. In fact, he did not want to do this, because if he did, a large number of laborers would enter and the current jobs would be taken away.

, a large number of jobs were taken away, which of course caused dissatisfaction among some lawmakers.

"I think Chen's idea is quite good," said a congressman who runs a labor dispatch business.

"Think about it, how many people are still under the control of the King of Wei? It's quite a lot. If the entire Wei army is disbanded, there will be a large number of people. Organize them and transport them to Qin. The money we make will be more than

There are more now," said a businessman councilor.

"Also, the current railway runs east-west, and a large number of locations are too important. The Koreans will definitely not ignore it and will definitely send troops to support it. This is beneficial to us." The congressman analyzed.

"In addition to these, if the Koreans continue to build railways and open up the Chu State, our business will be easy. The Chu State's silk, grain, and various products can enter the Wei State, and we can sell them to the Qin State. In this way

It's still good for us." The businessman saw the good side.

"But you are responsible for the money for the war. We, the people, can't afford it." The congressman who was listening to the businessman next to him said immediately.

"You, this Wei government was elected by everyone after all." The businessman councilor said dissatisfiedly. For a time, the council was filled with various voices, some opposed and some in favor. When both options were not taken up,

The upper hand was the upper hand, because it was unfavorable to make such a choice. The council was noisy for a while. Zhang Er and Chen Yu felt very upset when they saw it, because they could not make up their minds.

Xianyang, Qin State.

"Okay. The result of the lottery can be confirmed." Naofumi said while holding the statistical results.

"Well, this is the only way. There is no way, this is luck." said the banker of Qin State.

Shang Wen looked at Meng Yi and knew that there was nothing he could do about it, so he just assumed that it had already happened.

The results of the lottery are determined by luck. In order to show respect and be fair to the small and medium-sized banks, the order of the lottery is from small to large. Then the number of draws is determined based on the size of the transportation volume. However, in the end, everyone’s transported gold will be transported.

It's just that the order of arrival is different. The delivery time is planned to be five days. During the two days of preparation, the Qin State Railway Department mobilized a large number of locomotives and wagons from various places to fully queue up the trains bound for Handan, Zhao State.

of.

Within one day, Wenyang Bank occupied most of the seats. This may be due to the fact that Wenyang Bank transported a large amount of gold and the number of draws was relatively large. Followed by small and medium-sized banks, the Royal Bank's transportation volume was the smallest.

.

After the second day, the delivery volume of small and medium-sized banks increased rapidly. The delivery volume of the Royal Bank was still the smallest.

The situation was still the same on the third and fourth days. However, the situation on the fifth day was that the proportion of the royal bank occupied almost all seats. Of course. This does not mean that the Qin gold operation is over. The Qin government’s gold reserves

On the sixth day, a large amount of gold will be transported to suppress the gold price of Zhao State. Not only the gold will be transported, but also a large amount of banknotes. At this point, the final stage of Qin's gold campaign has officially begun.

"For the safety of Qin's paper currency system and future development, let's work together." Shang Wen said seriously.

Ying Yu nodded. Zhao Gao, the representative of the Royal Bank, nodded. Other bankers also nodded. This is a war without gunpowder. What is invested is not how many troops or weapons, but a large amount of funds and a large amount of gold.

Lots of paper money. There has never been such a war.

"I feel like it's like a war?" Mo Li said to Shang Wen after the meeting.

"This is originally a war." Meng Yi said to Mo Li.

"Qin State has invested more money than in a large-scale war. The amount of gold transported in five days is enough to launch multiple wars." Meng Yi said to Mo Li.

"How much gold is there?" Mo Li asked Meng Yi at this time.

"This." Meng Yi stretched out five fingers at this time.

"Five hundred stones?" At this time, Mo Li looked at Meng Yi and said. Shang Wen on the side smiled and shook his head.

"Five thousand stones, this is already very powerful. You must know that this is gold, gold." Mo Li said in disbelief.

"Fifty thousand stones of gold. There are also a large number of banknote transportation tasks." Meng Yi said to Mo Li.

Hearing this, Mo Li stuck out her tongue in surprise.

"Why so much? Where did your Qin country get so much gold?" Mo Li asked.

"This is Qin's gold reserve, and this may be part of it. If necessary, Qin can put a lot of gold on it." Meng Yi said seriously. To be honest, when Meng Yi received such a huge amount

I was also shocked when I saw it.

You must know that gold is transported, not ordinary goods. In order to ensure safety, especially to prevent such things from happening, Qin State has to adopt the method of sending more trains and loading less goods in order to reduce risks. That's it, this kind of transportation volume

It's also very shocking. Qin really doesn't want such a big surprise to happen.
