Chapter 258 Income and Expenditure
c_t; In the midst of busyness, time flies the fastest.
In the blink of an eye, another month has passed, and it seems that it has entered early autumn.
At this time, Tang Shaoyi's body has basically recovered, but there is still some weakness, but it no longer affects her daily office and work.
On this day, when Zhang Yi was resting in the general's mansion, Tang Shaoyi walked in and said, "General, there is news." After this period of contact, the US minister promised to come to Mukden within three days to see the business atmosphere in Mukden, and if there is really a good investment environment, they will contact big entrepreneurs in China to invest in Mukden. ”
Zhang Yi was shocked and asked, "Is it the American minister who came in person?" ”
Tang Shaoyi nodded and said excitedly: "Yes, Tian Xiali, Minister of the American Legation, will come to Shengjing with two economic secretaries. When the time comes, whether we can move their hearts, General, it all depends on our ability. ”
Zhang Yi smiled slightly: "It doesn't matter, now after more than half a year of governance, first, the country and the people in Fengtian are much more stable than the social and people's livelihood in all provinces in the country, and there are still people who are willing to invest without the rampant horse bandits; Second, unlike other provinces in China, which are reluctant to invest, we welcome them, and we will also provide tax incentives, which are not seen in other provinces in China. Third, the population of Mukden has now surged to 9 million people, and by the end of the year, it will definitely exceed 10 million people, and it is accompanied by a large number of merchants to come to Mukden. Fourth, I have a big gift waiting for the Americans, and this is a big gift that even if the Germans knew about it, they would go crazy. I don't believe it. This great advantage of our Mukden can't impress the Yankees! ”
Tang Shaoyi smiled and said: "General, now you are becoming more and more shrewd, you have dug a pit and waited for the Yankees to jump in, they will definitely not be able to take a step even if they want to run. ”
Zhang Yi laughed and pointed at Tang Shaoyi. said: "Haha, I only understand now. It's too late, Lao Tzu just wants you people to work hard for Lao Tzu......"
Zhang Yi and Tang Shaoyi are now getting closer and closer, and the relationship between the two has become a lot more open.
Tang Shaoyi frowned slightly and said: "Jianzhi, now that half a year has passed, look at the tens of millions of taels of silver that we have invested in Fengtian, which does not count the consumption of our army, if you add the consumption of the army and other seventy-seven eighty-eight investments, now the investment has exceeded fifteen or six million taels of silver." Jianzhi, if it continues like this, I am sure that the investment of the General's Mansion this year will exceed 20 million taels of silver, which is a amount that can scare people to death, and our income in the entire Fengtian this year will not exceed 3 million taels, the gap is too big. Even if we had the support of German loans, it would be stretched, you must know that in the second year our army will be expanded, there will be two universities to be built, there will be so many primary and secondary schools, and there will be a railroad to be built, and even the port of Yingkou will be built. Next year, our investment, according to the plan, will be at least close to 40 million taels, and our tax exemption plan will continue, so my financial income will be too different, but what can I do. At this cost, the interest-free loan in Germany will not last long, but it will not be spent......"
Zhang Yi frowned slightly and said, "What? We've all slipped into so much money? How do I feel like I'm not doing anything? It's such a waste, it's not done anything serious to reads;! ”
Tang Shaoyi was suddenly picked up by Zhang Yi and said, "Jianzhi, how did you complete the reorganization of your army?" How did you build your martial arts academy, and how did you recruit nearly four million people? Which of these doesn't cost money, fortunately, our bandits have made a profitable deal, if not, then I have to throw a lot of money into the bandits? Also, investing in the establishment of a bank, and investing in a coal-steel mixture, which one will not invest millions of silver? ”
Zhang Yi was a little big, and said: "What are you afraid of, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, as long as you survive these two years, it's fine, look at the present, our bank will definitely be profitable next year, our coal and steel mixture, next year will also be profitable, at least will maintain financial balance, these must be no problem, what are you afraid of, big deal, let's think of other ways to open up sources and reduce expenditures, don't open source, can't throttle, now what we need is to expand production." We can't be afraid of spending money, we will earn it back sooner or later, absolutely, if you don't invest now, if you want to invest in the future, it's a little late. Look at this year, we got back six or seven million taels from the DPRK, suppressed bandits, and earned four or five million vehicles, and then we cleaned up those corrupt officials and corrupt officials, plus our financial revenue, we were basically able to maintain a balance of payments this year. ”
Tang Shaoyi said: "What about next year? Next year, we won't have all these windfalls, and we'll only have those millions of financial revenues. We are simply praying arms as a car, how will I pay this money back in the future? You know, after five years, we will start to repay this money in installments, and the annual repayment amount will reach four million taels of silver. Our annual income is now less than three million taels, what should we do? ”
Zhang Yi said with a smile: "Shaochuan, you relax, in five years, our bank and the coal and steel industry will provide us with at least 10 million taels of silver every year." At the same time, do you know how many enterprises will be brought to Mukden in three years under the three-year tax exemption? How much tax do these businesses provide to the General's Mansion each year? ”
Tang Shaoyi said: "Even so, Jianzhi, we can afford to repay foreign debts, but what about our annual investment, our annual investment in the future will be fixed at more than 20 million silver, plus loan repayment, our annual investment will not be less than 30 million taels!" ”
Zhang Yi smiled and said, "Thirty million taels? Shaochuan, your appetite is too small. My plan is that starting from this year, our financial investment in Fengtian will increase by no less than 20 percent every year, that is to say, if we invest 20 million this year, by the fifth year, it will definitely reach 45 million, or even more than 50 million! ”
Zhang Yi paused slightly, and then said: "Shaochuan, don't worry, in three years, the population of our Fengtian will definitely exceed 20 million, and there will be more and more commercial enterprises from all over the country and Western countries such as Germany and the United States.
