Chapter 530 Northeast Development

In the history of China, there are really countless frontier immigrants organized by the imperial court. Although this move consumes financial and material resources, there are basically not many voices of opposition in the imperial court. The reason is very simple. Things that far outweigh the cons.

In addition to better reducing the burden on the court and controlling the security of the border areas, immigration to the border areas has another great advantage, that is, it can reduce the population pressure in the interior, so that more people can have enough food. In other words, In other words, the foundation of the prosperous age is also there.

After all, there is only so much land in the mainland, especially since the eighteenth century, almost all the land that can be cultivated and cannot be cultivated has been planted with crops. The purpose of burying lakes to reclaim forest land is to have more arable land and harvest more food.

There is nothing wrong with this approach, but in today's era, it seems more or less inappropriate, especially in the eyes of people like Ning Yu who came from later generations, it is really thankless, and there will be endless troubles .

For Ning Yu, the best way to alleviate the population pressure is not to continue to squeeze the land in the interior, but to open up to more distant places, especially the black land on the Northeast Plain, which is not generally fertile. Even in later generations, it is China's big granary.

The sooner this big granary is developed, the sooner it can harvest more grain and feed more people.

Ning Yu sighed softly: "If all these 1000 million people can be immigrated to the Northeast in the future, then we will not only be able to harvest at least 50 mu of land in the Northeast, but also easily pull out [-] acres of land in the Northeast." With the militia armed with guns coming out, for Da Chu, he no longer has to worry about the safety of the Northeast."

Everyone nodded. Everyone knew that the Russians were trying to compete with Ning Chu for the control of the North. Although they basically did not pose any threat to Ning Chu, what about the future?

If the armed farm plan can be implemented, the Northeast will be able to mobilize 200 million armed militias under extreme circumstances. At that time, let alone the Russians, no matter what forces come to the Northeast, it will be impossible to take the Northeast away.

Of course, Ning Chu can't do it right now, but when the plan is implemented day after day, it will be realized sooner or later.

After agreeing on the immigration plan, the ministers were about to disperse, but Ning Yu suddenly thought of something else, let Li Fu and Huang Maode stay, and sent someone to take Ernst and the businessman Bu Shangshu Ning Zhonghai and others called.

"Ernst, what happened to the Nanking stock exchange plan?"

As soon as Ernst arrived, Ning Yu asked immediately. He had been thinking about this matter for a long time in his heart. After all, when there is a shortage of money, it is still very good that the stock exchange can attract private hot money. The means are worthy of his attention.

Ernst had a smile on his face: "Reporting to Your Majesty, the Nanjing Stock Exchange is basically ready, and it can officially start after His Majesty returns to Nanjing. At present, many commercial banks in Nanjing have registered their names, and their stocks will enter the official stock exchange at that time. Circulation is mainly based on registered stocks at present."

Ning Yu nodded slightly, and said: "Well, it seems to be going well, I think that in addition to these commercial firms, some official development companies can also be established by the imperial court, and the development projects they carry out can also be put on for dividends. .”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked, because the meaning behind these words was not simple.

If the previous stock exchange was just a way to mobilize funds between the Southern Chamber of Commerce, then the official project established by the imperial court is more of a betting nature-the imperial court is naturally very capable, but the imperial court Not all the projects carried out make money. If there is no more informed news and strong capital, it is very difficult to make a profit from it.

However, once the treasure is pressed, the benefits obtained are not ordinary.

For example, the Shanghai-Nanjing Railway that Ningchu is currently building, no one can see the future prospects now, so if the imperial court takes out the future operating rights of the Shanghai-Nanjing Railway to form a company, and then put it on the Nanjing Stock Exchange, It is the nature of a bet—no one can predict the income that the railway will generate, so no one knows how much its investment value is worth, but if the railway can really generate huge income, it is no less than a treasure bowl.

Ernst couldn't help frowning. He knew what the emperor was thinking, and he wanted to use the money of the people as much as possible to do big things together, but if he proceeded rashly right now, the effect would definitely be as the emperor thought—after all, people are all kind of Very short-sighted animals, long-term vision will always exist only in a very small number of people.

"Your Majesty, it's not impossible if the imperial court project is put up, but it's hard for us to give the expected profit—I'm afraid it's still early." Ernst decided to tell the truth.

Ning Yu smiled slightly. He had seen the madness of stock investors in his previous life. Even after experiencing stock market crashes repeatedly, didn't the leeks keep rushing in?As long as there are success stories, then they will not consider themselves losers.

"Ernst, what I mean is not that they must join in now, but that they can understand the business opportunities in these places through the current imperial court's projects-for example, the imperial court's current Northeast immigration plan, itself It’s a big deal that can make money if it’s done well.”

"What, can this also make money?"

Almost all the ministers were confused by Ning Yu. This is clearly a long-term matter of losing money. Can the emperor turn stone into gold?Don't talk about making money, even if you lose less, it's quite a big deal.

Ning Yu smiled and said: "The Northeast is vast and rich in resources. It is very possible to make money from it. It is like the dense forest in the Northeast, which can be cut down. At that time, whether it is construction or shipbuilding, you can earn a lot. Money. In addition, the mining of gold, silver and iron ore can also make a lot of money."

When the emperor kept talking about money, his appearance was no different from those traders who fooled clients into investing in his previous life. Even the emperor looked at the ministers with more encouragement and confidence in his eyes.

Ernst felt a little nervous, "Your Majesty, you mean to make the prospect of Northeast development into a project and put it on the exchange?"

Ning Yu nodded and said, "I plan to establish a joint-stock company for the development and utilization of Northeast resources. At that time, it will be placed in the exchange as part of the Northeast immigration plan. As for the initial funds, I will provide 500 million silver dollars. You guys If you want to contribute money, you can also take some shares."

"If the ministers pay the money, can they also benefit from it in the future?" Ernst smiled, of course he knew the meaning of this, and now he began to cooperate with the emperor.

Ning Yudao: "That's right, the Northeast Resources Development and Utilization Co., Ltd. exists as a long-term project, and the profits it obtains will be announced on the board of directors to ensure that all major shareholders have the right to know. As for the profits generated, it is specifically invested Reproduction or shareholder dividends can be decided by the board of directors at that time. If you feel that you don’t want to make money in the long run, you can also resell the shares in your hands to obtain a premium for the shares.”

It was rare for the emperor to explain in such detail, but it made others a little bit moved, "Your Majesty, will the stock price fluctuate greatly?"

"That's right—as a listed company, all financial issues of Northeast Resources Development and Utilization Co., Ltd. will be announced. At that time, whether it is profit or loss, it will affect the confidence of shareholders—in short, it is also It will affect the value of the stock itself." Ning Yu explained tirelessly.

"It sounds like a lot of money." Huang Maode's face showed a trace of longing.

Ning Yu smiled, "Of course, as a stock exchange, there will not be only such a choice at that time. In fact, I have already planned to establish North Korea Resource Development Co., Ltd. As the revenue of the court."

Ernst looked at the emperor in amazement. He could basically understand the logic. It could even be said that the implementation of this project itself represented a kind of victory—the emperor successfully kidnapped everyone in the On his boat, he could only follow his boat all the way.

The reason is very simple. After you buy the shares of Myanmar Resources Development Co., Ltd., you will subconsciously hope that the company will grow smoothly and bring you more benefits than expected. Then when the interests of the imperial court in Myanmar are lost , You will also subconsciously try to prevent this from happening. As for giving up the interests of Myanmar, it is even more unthinkable. You will go to the battlefield in person to protect your own property.

The alliance kidnapped by interests is the most steadfast comrade in arms.

Ning Yu looked at the crowd and said with a smile: "I will invest in all the above projects, so if you believe in my vision, you can also invest a sum of money, and in a few years I will be able to provide you with unimaginable benefits - of course , It doesn’t matter if you don’t want to invest, after they grow up, maybe you will pay a higher price to invest.”

On the surface, these words were addressed to the ministers below, but in fact, Ning Yu was addressing the powerful families of the chamber of commerce behind them. Do you want to grow rapidly with the rhythm of the empire?Then pay quickly!

How to take out other people's money is a difficult problem, but how to let others take the initiative to take money is a science. At least Ning Yu has mastered the essence of this knowledge at the moment. The stock exchange may also bring more wealth.

In fact, it was similar to what Ning Yu thought. Not long after the news spread, almost all chambers of commerce and big clans smelled the hidden wealth behind this incident——Judging from the current strength of the imperial court, Whether it is the Northeast, Myanmar or North Korea, almost all of them are sure enough, and there is a lot of room for investment, so they all pay attention to it.

Of course, it is one thing to pay attention to it, and it is another matter whether to pay for it now.

But at this time, another big news has attracted everyone's attention, that is, Zhu Yigui from Taiwan has finally sent an envoy to Nanjing and asked to join Da Chu!
