Chapter 920: The net is closed
Will it lose?
Liu Chun has never fought unprepared battles, for this battle, he has been preparing for too long, so long that he is a little tired and tired, too lazy to care, so he chose to sleep...... To be precise, it is to recharge his energy and prepare for going to the Americas.
However, Zhu Di didn't want him to be idle, especially after handing over half of the Royal Bank, Zhu Di became a victim of gains and losses, for fear that something would go wrong.
"This is the most important thing in my hands, and it is also the foundation of food and clothing for future generations, and there is no room for loss!" Zhu Laosi said fiercely.
He held Liu Chun and personally went to the original Royal Bank, which is now the Yingtian Branch.
The information of the entire Jiangnan is gathered here, and any wind and grass in the market will be sent immediately. Zhu Di was engrossed, staring at all the news.
It's like two evenly matched boxers, standing in the ring and attacking each other, all of them are fists to the flesh, the kind that makes crazy moves, and there is no politeness to talk about.
First of all, on the side of the Sanyi Society, relying on years of accumulation and abundant capital in hand, it mainly attacked bonds and banks, trying to paralyze the local administrative system and abolish paper money.
Yoo's response was to strip off his debts and set up a special investment company to deal with them.
In this way, the debts that were scattered in various places were brought together.
Although this liberated the local yamen, the debt itself did not decrease, and the crisis still existed.
Moreover, after clearing the debts, it is roughly estimated that the debts of the local yamen in Nanzhili, Jiangxi and Zhejiang alone are as much as 500 million taels!
"These brutes, how dare they borrow so much money? Where did all this money go? ”
Zhu Di roared loudly and walked back and forth on the ground, angry.
Liu Chun rolled his eyes, not surprised at all.
"Your Majesty, you should get used to the pressure of debt, and borrowing money with your ability is also an ability!"
"What a skill! I ask you, how do you pay it back? Zhu Di gasped and said, his scalp is indeed numb, these debts alone are almost equivalent to half of the treasury's income, if you count the debts of other places, it is not difficult to exceed the annual income, or even more than several times.
So much money is enough to crush the imperial court.
Even if he was the Emperor Yongle, he felt like a mountain of pressure.
Now it seems that it is reasonable for Sanyi Society to choose to attack debts, and it is indeed the shortcomings and sore spots of the imperial court!
These people are not ordinary!
Zhu Di became more and more careless.
"Since you can borrow money with your ability, you can rely on your ability not to repay the money!" Liu Chun was full of smiles, which was completely different from Zhu Di's nervousness, but instead seemed calm and light, and the victory was in his hands.
"Your Majesty, these debts are not to be repaid immediately, among the 500 million debts, the short-term ones are less than 100 million, for long-term debts, we can issue new debts to offset old debts, as long as the interest rate is lowered, the pressure on interest will be reduced a lot...... The key is these short-term debts...... There is nothing difficult about it, the key is to inject capital into the imperial court and transfer assets, all in all, the living will not be suffocated by urine, of course, the premise is a complete person! ”
Liu Chun mentioned the complete "person", and Zhu Di couldn't help but think of Liu Chun's previous statement that Liu Chun compared people to the imperial court...... The so-called complete person is to have a well-established industry, to have finance and finance, and to have an objective and neutral brain...... If a large number of countries are united, each with financial power, but hands over monetary and financial resources to the Union, I am sorry, this disability without an arm will not cope with the crisis.
And those empires that give the right to issue money to private individuals, hollow out industries, and lack industrial support, will also rot.
What's even worse is that there are troops from other countries stationed on the land, and the brain is directly manipulated by the suzerain, and I don't even know how to die.
Therefore, a complete national sovereignty, a relatively neutral center with huge resources and authority, in this world, how rare and rare!
After Liu Chun stripped off the debt, he immediately injected 50 million capital into the Royal Investment Company in the name of the Ministry of Households, and at the same time injected 50 million in the name of the Royal Bank.
In this way, the Royal Investment Corporation has the underlying working capital.
Immediately afterwards, Liu Chun took out a few other things, one of which was the overseas affiliated islands and the strait communication line...... At this moment, the Royal Investment Company has become a rat that has fallen into a rice bowl, and it has a golden job in its hand.
First of all, one of the simplest things, is the Strait of Malacca.
In the past, the Daming fleet was stationed here, and the passing ships were protected by the Daming Naval Division.
This time, Liu Chun directly handed over the management of the strait to the Royal Investment Company.
In a word, the Royal Investment Corporation is allowed to set up a card to collect taxes.
More than 100 million goods pass through here every year, and after the card is set up, at least 5 million are recorded every year.
This amount of money alone is enough to cover the interest expenses.
Speaking of those islands, Liu Chun selected more than 100 small and medium-sized islands in one breath and allocated them to investment companies.
Although these small islands are inconspicuous, they are rich in resources and of great value.
Some islands can build shipyards and docks to serve as relay stations for navigation, and tolls can also be charged.
Some islands have resources, such as guano!
You must know that the current Ming Dynasty does not have the ability to make chemical fertilizers, and in addition to compost, guano is the best source of fertilizer.
Even if there are no resources, there are fishing grounds around the island...... All in all, these can bring more than three million dollars to the investment company.
At the same time, Liu Chun also gave the investment company a right, that is, to sell overseas bonds on behalf of him.
What are overseas bonds?
For example, King Yi built a domain in Tianzhu, he wants to develop Tianzhu resources, but lacks start-up capital, what should he do? He can apply to the investment company, which will evaluate and decide whether to invest directly or help sell bonds to raise capital......
The Ministry of Accounts and the Royal Bank injected capital, plus these powers were in hand.
The Royal Investment Corporation immediately became a giant.
In the face of those surging debt collectors, he is calm and does not care at all.
If you want money, there is!
"Taishi really has the ability to turn decay into magic! That's a clever move! ”
These days, Wang Xing has been communicating with businessmen from all over the world, exchanging news, and communicating with each other. At the beginning, they were all worried and sweated for the court.
But when Liu Chun launched a counterattack, these people were all dumbfounded.
There was only one thought in my mind: to play like this!
Taishi, you are destroying the market, you are using the power of the court to play scoundrels! You don't play by the routine!!
In the face of these messy questions, Liu Chun just wanted to laugh!
Grandma, you are deliberately making trouble, the knife is on your neck, and you are forcing me to follow your routine, what do you think? Lao Tzu is not born with cheap bones.
Does it have to bring down the court and be at your mercy to be in line with the rules?
Who set the rules for you!
On Lao Tzu's territory, Lao Tzu is the rule!
If you are not convinced, just talk to the Jinyi Guard and the forbidden army about the rules!
Liu Chun specially transferred a university scholar, and he put Jin Youzi in charge of the Royal Investment Company, responsible for disposing of local debts, and at the same time assigned him two assistants, one was Qiu Fu's son Qiu Jun, and the other was Jinyiwei's commander Tongzhi Luo Feng.
This trio has already made Liu Chun's attitude clear.
If you want to settle accounts, you can find the Royal Investment Company, and if you are still dissatisfied, you will wait for the iron fist of the imperial court!
Faced with this result, the Sanyi Society finally panicked...... On the ship in Zhoushan, Ji Gang finally frowned. In the past few days, he has been coughing incessantly, much worse than before, and he can't sleep all night long, and his head seems to have exploded.
He asked himself, he was a ruthless man.
But compared with Liu Chun, I have to admit that there is still a gap!
Since there is no way to deal with the debt, only gold and silver remain...... The paper money of the imperial court was decoupled from gold and silver, and it was full of strength to arouse the fear of treasure money in the big guys.
Let the common people abandon paper money and use gold and silver in turn, or even barter!
As long as the paper money is abolished and the imperial court can't come up with the money, the hundreds of thousands of forbidden troops will become decorations, and the yamen everywhere will be useless.
So, let's get started!
Soon, the price of gold and silver soared throughout Jiangnan, even Lianghuai, and even Zhejiang and Fujian...... From the initial one tael corresponds to the same banknote, it soon rose to one tael for ten, fifteen, and twenty yuan...... At this rate, it will soon rise to 100 or even 1,000!
All in all, the banknotes of the imperial court are just a pile of waste paper!
Only gold and silver are fundamental!
"Ji Ye, your hand is too clever, now many maritime merchants in Zhejiang, Fujian and other places are hoarding gold and silver, and there are more than a dozen merchants in Hangzhou...... In my opinion, it won't be long before Nan Zhili's side will not be able to stand up, and those businessmen who turned out to be in the past will stand on Ji Ye's side again, and this time we will win! ”
Ji Gang didn't show any joy at all, he still frowned, "Don't underestimate Liu Chun too much, he has many means!" After fighting with him for so long, haven't you learned your lesson? ”
The little old man nodded again and again, and said with a smile: "What Ji Ye taught me is that I know." ”
"It's good to know, tell the Sanyi Society, don't expose it too early, in case Liu Chun smells it, they won't be able to run away!"
The little old man nodded again and again, "Please rest assured, Ji Ye, I will notify you immediately." ”
When the little old man left, Ji Gang slowly smiled.
In his opinion, even if he can't win all this time, it will be enough to give Liu Chun's half life.
"Master Liu, don't admit defeat! I really want to see you, what else is there to do! ”
Ji Gang gritted his teeth and said viciously.
It's just that Ji Gang didn't know that at this time, a group of envoys had already entered Yingtian, and there were people from King Yi, King Qi, King Chu, and King Qing...... All the feudal kings who had been divided into feudal lords were dispatched.
Including the crown prince Zhu Gaochi, and the Duke of Dingguo Xu Zengshou, they are also among them.
They jointly expressed to Zhu Di that they were willing to accept Daming's banknotes as bulk settlement currency!
After this news was announced, the whole Jiangnan was boiling.
Those who were originally bearish on paper money hesitated, who said that paper money became waste paper? Isn't this someone approving it! If you want to buy goods overseas, gold and silver are useless, you need paper money!
There was a mess in the market, but Zhu Di was ecstatic, "Qing and others are worthy of my wings, Daming Fence, very good!" Very good! Zhu Laosi praised these people, and it seemed that it was indeed a clever move to divide them to go overseas.
When Zhu Di was feasting everyone, someone suddenly came to Zhu Di's ear and muttered a few words, Zhu Di was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly got up and went to the side hall, where Liu Chun was waiting.
"Your Majesty, Ma He sent news just now, he has found Ji Gang's traces, and he is waiting for His Majesty to give an order, and he will arrest someone!" Liu Chun smiled calmly.
