Absolute power means absolute corruption!

Belch! I forgot who said this, Zhen Qian is not a person with a desire for control and strong power after all, no matter how you look at it, he is a little coerced by the big car of history.

Zhen Qian's ambition is not big, and he sleeps until he wakes up naturally; Count the money until your hands cramp; It's fun to drink tea and read the newspaper; Side hustle and poor salary; The secretary is beautiful and his subordinates fight; You have carried the credit, I have received it; Eurasia, America, Africa and Antarctica; Business travel is at your disposal, this is Zhen Qian's dream.

Of course, this is the dream of the previous life, after the crossing, I wanted to be a small landlord, and it happened to be the era of three wives and four concubines, how to marry more than a dozen beautiful wives and concubines, there are thousands of acres of land at home, living in a big house with three into four into five or six into the house, surrounded by dozens of children and grandchildren, this life is like this.

Who knew that the good death would not come before the Anshi Rebellion?

Anshi Rebellion! History is usually the Spring and Autumn Period, what is the remainder of two or three out of ten, no dog barking for a hundred miles, no rooster crowing for thousands of miles, etc., anyway, it is very miserable, and the entire Tang Dynasty also has a boom and decline, can it not be miserable?

I'd rather be a peace dog than a troubled world!

Zhen Qian's first thought was to escape from the world, how far to run, but he didn't feel like the hero, he could kill all directions, swords, guns and arrows to avoid himself, in fact, human life is extremely fragile, especially in ancient times, when a cold can kill people, life is as cheap as a pig and dog, and he doesn't want to end the curtain before he appears, that's too much of a loss.

Zhen Qian is a small citizen mentality, he doesn't have any lofty ideals, the first thing to consider is himself, is he selfish?

It's just human nature!

People are born with the instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and Zhen Qian does not mind, after he has no worries about food and clothing, he stretches out his hand to pull others, provided that he has this ability.

If he didn't measure himself and ran to Li Longji and said that An Lushan wanted to rebel, An Lushan would laugh, Li Longji would be furious, and Zhen Qian would see the king of Hades in the next second.

I originally wanted to take a group of people out to sea, occupy an island, and live a free life, but slowly found that my thinking seemed to be too advanced, with an island, there must be people, and there must be ships, and finally I have to watch out for pirates who don't open my eyes, and things are getting ......bigger and bigger, and in the end, I have to admit that I have to play big.

The Five Peaks Islands are the product of their own narrow thinking!

Looking at the Wufeng Islands, which are growing day by day, Zhen Qian can't give up in his heart, and for the sake of survival, he seems to have embarked on a "road of no return".

"In the past year, the Wufeng Islands have developed from scratch, with a population of 31,64 people, more than 4,700 houses have been built, with an area of more than 43,800 mu, more than 370 cement roads, seven large and small wharves, and 49 trestle bridges,...... Shipyards, hospitals, schools, orphanages, homes for the elderly, and more! ”

“…… Commerce has been unprecedentedly developed, paper, printing, porcelain, furniture, etc., there are 253 registered shops, as well as hundreds of vendors, forming a complete industrial chain from production, sales to consumption, and foreign trade is gradually on the right track! ”

"The most important of these is that the owner of the island took out 500,000 taels of gold, established the first bank in the Wufeng Islands, and issued 5 million yuan in banknotes, which greatly supported the commercial development ...... the Wufeng Islands."

Speaking of this, a burst of warm applause immediately broke out in the venue, which startled Zhen Qian, who was out of the world, thinking that the meeting was over?

What's the matter, the old boy will also make a sycophant?

Zhen Qian's old face was slightly red and waved his hand, and he immediately felt that his image was tall, and it was really comfortable to be held.

In fact, from the perspective of development, whether it is called Qianzhuang or bank, it is just a name.

If you really want to make a comparison between the two, Zhen Qian believes that his bank not only has all the functions of the money bank in this era, but also plays a role in maintaining and balancing the financial environment of a place, which is equivalent to part of the functions of the central bank in later generations, which is why there are rich banks on the Wufeng Islands and no banks can be seen.

From the very beginning, Zhen Qian formulated the gold standard system, using gold as a reserve currency, abolishing the copper standard and the silver standard, so that copper withdrew from the financial circulation channels of the Wufeng Islands, but silver is still the currency in circulation, but it is just a supplement to paper money, mainly appearing in foreign trade, not the currency circulating in the Wufeng Islands.

At present, the economic scale of the Wufeng Islands is still very small, and according to the statistics of the manager, the currency circulating in the market of the Wufeng Islands is less than 2 million, and although the banks have 5 million banknotes in circulation, they do not dare to put them into the market all at once, so as not to cause soaring prices and inflation in the market.

Now the slightly larger shops in the Wufeng Islands have Zhen Qian's shares, or because the Wufeng Islands are too poor, Zhen Qian can only borrow money and technology to help others open stores, it is no exaggeration to say that the entire Wufeng Islands are working for Zhen Qian.

"Last year, the Wufeng Islands collected 38,649 yuan in industrial and commercial taxes a year, and 1,426 yuan of various types of grain were put into storage, all exceeding the estimated 50 percent and 20 percent, and more than 230,000 mu of farmland was reclaimed, and it is expected that more than 60,000 ...... of grain will be collected next year."

The more he talked on the podium, the more excited he became, this is all his own political achievement!

Everyone in the audience was also surprised, this kind of macro data can not be heard usually, at most they can feel that the surroundings are changing every day, but to what extent it has developed, I don't know.

Steward He spoke on the stage for more than a quarter of an hour, and the audience was basically Tian Shehan, and today was an eye-opener, and one by one he was sitting and listening to Steward He's report, and he didn't know how much he understood.

However, most of the figures in the report are heard very clearly, although I can usually feel the changes in the Wufeng Islands, but there is no shock from the numbers in the mouth of the manager, many people open their mouths wide, constantly gasping for air, "This is too shocking!" ”

Zhen Qian also nodded with satisfaction, the speed of development of the Wufeng Islands is indeed much faster than expected, thanks to the speed of population growth, more than 30,000 people, of which thirty percent are women of childbearing age, and the number of newborns alone will increase by more than five or six thousand next year, and the Wufeng Islands will enter the peak period of fertility in a short period of time, coupled with the continuous population import, there should be hope that the population will reach 100,000 within two or three years?

After finishing last year's work report, he announced that the parliament had moved on to the next topic, and more than 200 temporary members were divided into 10 groups to discuss the bill.

Some of the motions were put forward by ad hoc councilors, but most of them were put forward by He Guanshi, Wang Lun, and Zhen Qian, and they involved almost all aspects from the economy to education, and even put forward several new regulations, which could be formally implemented in the Wufeng Islands after the vote.

Zhen Qian regarded the Wufeng Islands as a test field for his first dream!
