Chapter 783: The Second Treasury Bond!
"Father, now that Jiangbei has just stabilized, the treasury has been providing disaster relief in recent years, and it is normal to have some emptiness, it is better to issue treasury bonds in the name of Xiaoyao Commercial Bank, wait until next autumn harvest, and return them!"
Luo Chen thought twice and spoke.
Emperor Xia also fell into contemplation, the last time the southern border was fought in the first war, it was all by issuing treasury bonds to be able to gather grain and grass, and now that Luo Chen said so, it must be that the Xiaoyao Commercial Bank is not full of money, since this is the case, it can only be like this!
"Good!"
Seeing Emperor Xia nodding, Su Xun suddenly spoke: "Your Majesty, my Su family is willing to bear a quarter of the grain and grass for this expedition!" ”
Su Xun stood up to surprise many people, but, after thinking about it, it is normal for this old guy to stand up, after all, the Su family, as the first noble of Great Xia, although it can't compare with the four major families in terms of reputation, but the Su family's heritage is not bad at all compared with the four major families!
Luo Chen also glanced at this uncle in surprise, and said with a smile: "Su Xiang Gaoyi, if I can be like Su Xiang in the civil and military forces of the Great Xia Manchu Dynasty, why worry about not being able to make up all the grain and grass!" ”
Hearing Luo Chen say this, many people are full of black lines, last time I used such a routine I don't know how many people were beheaded, this time again?
This time, no one acted rashly, but the six Shangshu all stood up, no one gave 10,000 taels of silver, they all had families behind them, and 10,000 taels of silver could still be taken out by gritting their teeth!
After all, this time is very significant!
Then, someone also stood up in twos and threes, and after expressing his words, Emperor Xia nodded with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "You can share your worries for the country, I am very relieved!" ”
"It should, it should!"
"The rise and fall of the country is the responsibility of the husband!"
"We are willing to die for Great Xia!"
A passionate voice sounded, Emperor Xia nodded with satisfaction, looked at Luo Chen and said softly: "In that case, King Yin, this matter will be left to you!" ”
"Sons obey orders!"
……
"Lord, Wen You is back!"
In the afternoon, Luo Chen was reading with a cup of hot tea, and Guo Jia hurriedly walked in.
"Oh?" Luo Chen's face was slightly surprised, and he said softly: "Let him come in!" ”
Guo Jia nodded with a smile, and it didn't take long for Li Ru to walk in in a hurry, and after seeing Luo Chen, a stiff smile appeared on his gloomy face!
Luo Chen smiled and said, "Okay, no need to be polite, sit down quickly!" ”
"Thank you, my lord!"
Li Ru arched his hand, did not sit down, but said softly: "The degree and the Han were rescued by a group of black-clothed people again, and now they have been targeted by our people!" ”
A flash of surprise flashed in Luo Chen's eyes, and he said softly, "Have you ever found out their identities?" ”
Li Ru shook his head slightly: "That's not true!" ”
"The one who is eyeing them is the one who wants to leave!"
Luo Chen's face was slightly surprised, then he nodded, and said softly: "We don't have to worry about the affairs of Jiangnan next, with Yue Fei and Jia Xu here, they can't afford to make big waves!" ”
"You must know that, right?"
Luo Chen looked at Li Ru, and after seeing him nod, he spoke: "These days are collecting grain and grass, or ten days, it will be time to send troops, at that time, the capital is empty, the two prime ministers are presiding over the government, Wenyou, your burden is very heavy!" ”
A hint of discoloration flashed in Li Ru's eyes, and he said in a condensed voice: "Don't worry, lord!" ”
"With me in the capital, it's no different from weekdays!"
Luo Chen smiled: "This time, the black-clothed guards are definitely going to come out of the nest, so there are only Jinyi guards and 50,000 forbidden troops in Beijing, and the others are not mentioned for the time being, just to stabilize the situation!" ”
Li Ru nodded and said, "No!" ”
"Zibu and Wang Sen have already gone to the governor of Jiangnan, presumably when they return, we have already set out on an expedition, we must pay attention, pay attention to the movements of several major families in the capital!"
"No!"
……
After some instructions, Li Ru went to Jinyiwei non-stop to deal with official business, after all, he had not returned to Beijing for many days, everything here was taken care of by Guo Jia, and there were many things that Li Ru still had to see and hand over!
Luo Chen called Long Ying over and said in a condensed voice: "Long Ying, I will give you a very important task!" ”
"Your Highness, please speak!"
Luo Chen had a faint smile on his face and said, "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, your mission is not the Western Regions, but the Central Plains!" ”
"I'm afraid this battle will take at least three or five months, three or five months, how can I say that it will be enough for you to sow all the seeds, right?"
Long Ying's face suddenly turned grim, and he said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, rest assured, your subordinates will definitely go all out!" ”
Luo Chen bowed slightly, and said softly: "Prepare to go!" ”
"Your Highness, our people have sent news that Li Jiuli doesn't seem to have returned to Great Qin, and moreover, after Sheyan went back, he made a statement to Emperor Qin, and he also played scratch games in Great Qin!"
Hearing Long Ying's words, Luo Chen suddenly laughed and said softly: "Li Jiuli is in Chang'an!" ”
"Chang'an?"
Long Ying's eyes were full of surprise, and Luo Chen's face showed a hint of playfulness: "Not only in Chang'an, but also in Chang'an Academy!" ”
"How is that possible!"
Looking at Long Ying's incredulous look, Luo Chen smiled faintly: "The disciple of the Ghost Valley, how can he be a simple person?" ”
……
"A new treasury bond has been issued, and the interest rate is 8 percent!"
A man held a large summer daily newspaper and said loudly.
"What!"
"National debt?"
The surrounding people showed a look of surprise on their faces: "Is it possible that the treasury is so empty now?" ”
"Impossible, right?"
"You know what? There is a war on the horizon, and the amount of manpower and material resources to be spent must be astronomical, so it is not surprising that the issuance of government bonds will be issued! ”
"It's just that the interest rate is lower than the bank's, and it takes nine months!"
Puzzled voices sounded, and I saw the newspaper seller laughing and saying: "The national debt is issued by the imperial court, and the interest rate is naturally set by the imperial court!" ”
"I see!"
After listening to the man's explanation, everyone inevitably began to hesitate again, "Then should we deposit in the bank or buy treasury bonds?" ”
"Yes! I'm hesitating too! ”
"After all, the imperial court is using money now, although the interest rate is lower than that of the bank, and buying treasury bonds is regarded as contributing to the country!"
"Yes! Let's go! Let's go to buy treasury bonds together, don't say that the interest rate is lower, even if I don't give me interest, I am willing to lend it to the imperial court, and those barbarians in the Western Regions dare to touch the fertile soil of my Central Plains, I don't know whether to live or die! ”
"This brother is right! Walk! ”
"Let's go together!"
Suddenly, one after another figures walked directly towards the bank, and said loudly: "We are here to buy treasury bonds!" ”
"Ladies and gentlemen, please inside!"
"Please line up and buy in order!"
