Destiny Only Han

Beside the road.

in the shade.

Liu Ying had just stepped off the carriage when she suddenly heard a very familiar clip sound.

"Brother, where are you going?"

In the distance, Liu Letun walked over steadily.

Liu Ying asked angrily: "You took away the last can of smoothie, what are you doing here?"

Stingy guy... Liu Le curled his lips with disgust: "You never snatched anything from me when you were a child? Am I as unwilling as you? Isn't it just a can of ice? I'll give it back to you when we get to Yunyang County!"

"How can it be the same?" Liu Ying was also full of disdain.

"Can't you double the compensation?" Liu Le stretched out two chubby fingers and gestured.

She owns a luxury home in Yunyang County. Last year, she installed the latest refrigerator that can be cooled by just turning on electricity...

Well, cold storage to be precise.

Miniaturization of equipment is a problem, but large machinery only consumes more energy. Anyway, everyone is not short of money, and the refrigerator becomes a cold storage...

Therefore, Liu Ying's face was full of disgust: "I don't care about your ice? Doesn't Linguang Palace have an ice machine? Tell me, why are you here? I am very busy, very busy!"

After all, children will go to sleep when they are full. If they are woken up, it will be difficult to pet them...

Although Liu Ying was very rude, Liu Le was not angry. Not only was he not angry, he also held Liu Ying's arm and walked together for the first time.

"Sister, your marriage is decided by our father and mother, I can't make the decision..." Liu Ying said tentatively.

"Huh?" Liu Le was confused.

"If you didn't want to make peace with Zhang Buyi, why were you holding my arm so close?" Liu Ying's face was full of surprise.

"Huh?" Liu Le was stunned.

"Can you change your lines?" Liu Ying frowned.

Liu Le just woke up from a dream and stamped his feet: "Who asked you this? Zhang Busu and I are very close! Brother, if you talk nonsense again, be careful I slap you!"

Liu Ying breathed a sigh of relief: "That's right! I almost thought you were beheaded by someone..."

Liu Le stared and said nothing.

Liu Ying sighed and simply waved her hand to let the convoy go first. Then she looked at Liu Le and asked, "What exactly do you want to do?"

Liu Le hesitated for a moment and asked weakly: "I just want to ask why the engineering team from Prime Minister Cao's family is not allowed to participate in the transformation of Chang'an City!"

Liu Ying's face was filled with questions.

After a while, he looked at Liu Le and asked, "Did Prime Minister Cao ever offend you?"

"No..." Liu Le shook his head: "Why do you ask this?"

Liu Ying asked: "Then why do you use Prime Minister Cao as a shield?"

Liu Le giggled.

Liu Ying walked forward slowly, with a somewhat stern tone: "I know your purpose of coming. If it's for the project, just go back and forth wherever you go! I've said it before, when the people enter the officialdom and retire, the kings will wait. Don’t compete with the people for profit!”

Liu Le frowned and asked, "Why? The members of the Xungui family's construction team are fixed, and they cooperate with each other tacitly. The asking price is not high, and he uses his status as a contractor as a guarantee for the quality of the project!"

"What I said has been verified before!"

"It's so easy to use, why not use it?"

Liu Ying was silent.

At this moment, a very familiar voice sounded in his ears.

"Yeah, I also want to know why not."

Liu Ying turned around and saw Liu Bang, who was full of curiosity, and Lu Wan, Cao Shen and others who didn't know whether they came to play with Liu Bang or to complain.

Well, the emperor is visiting Linguang Palace, so naturally all the officials will go with him.

Today, we used a large chariot. When leaving the city, the princes and ministers were at the forefront of the convoy, the servants were driving for the emperor, and the lieutenants were participating in the car. There were 81 chariots, tens of thousands of people in front and behind. I don’t know how many people in the crowd secretly swore that a true man should be like this. …

Hearing Liu Bang's words, Liu Ying smiled and replied: "Because we want to support the private economy."

Liu Bang frowned.

"To be blunt, we can't let all the money be made by the dignitaries!" Liu Ying said sternly: "It is said that happiness alone is not as good as happiness for everyone. If you want to maintain the stability of the Han Dynasty and make the people of the world rich, you need to let ordinary people eat properly. A mouthful of meat.”

Cao Shen and others looked at each other without speaking.

At this moment, Liu Ying vaguely remembered a famous saying from the Song Dynasty.

To rule the world with the scholar-officials, not with the common people.

Today's Han Dynasty can change the three characters of scholar-bureaucrat into four characters.

The hero group.

This is why Liu Ying prohibited them from participating in project bidding.

This is true, but if you want to achieve your goal, you need to take some detours.

Liu Ying smiled broadly and asked, "Is it really profitable to do engineering?"

Cao Shen shook his head.

Among these people, apart from the vassal kings, he had the largest fiefdom, the largest number of food estates, naturally a large idle population, and the number of migrant workers was second to none.

After all, in most places, the poor use columbuses when sowing, the rich use horse-drawn seeders, and small horse-drawn harvesters are available when harvesting. Basically, except for those steep and difficult-to-climb terraces, animal power Machinery has completely replaced manual labor.

Therefore, the ideal family structure in the past has changed from a family of five with a hundred acres of land to a family of five with a thousand acres of land...

There are naturally more unemployed people.

Therefore, Wang Ling said: "I don't know what happened to other families, but my third son started a civil engineering company just to find a legitimate job for the people in the fiefdom and make some money to supplement their family income... But my own family doesn't make much money. "

Li Shang, Xia Hou Ying and others nodded frequently and said similar words to Wang Ling.Well, what they say is true.

After all, the Han Dynasty was founded less than 30 years ago. There were more honest officials than corrupt officials in the officialdom, and the suppressed Legalist scholars were eyeing them. Even those who wanted to make money and power transactions were wary and did not dare to use infrastructure projects. Holding the country's money from head to toe...

But the more this happens, the more they value every opportunity to make money.

Without him, mosquito legs are also meat!
Liu Ying scratched the mosquito bite on her chin, shook her head and said, "Now an opportunity to make a lot of money is right in front of everyone, why can't anyone see it?"

Wang Ling suddenly became interested.

He is particularly interested in making big money. Otherwise, during the late Qin Dynasty, when others were just petty thieves, he would directly start making counterfeit coins...

"Prime Minister Cao should know!" Liu Ying pointed at Cao Shen.

"Huh?" Cao Shen frowned, cupped his hands and said, "I'm sorry for my stupidity, but your Majesty, please give me a clear explanation."

Liu Ying said: "On that day, you and Zhisu Neishi Zhang Cang and Nei Shi Wei Wuzhi were discussing matters in Xuanshi Palace. Did I say that we would establish a Royal Bank and let Nei Shi issue development bonds?"

Cao Shen nodded.

Only then did Wang Ling and others react, and there was a lot of discussion.

"What? Are there any bonds to buy again?"

"Didn't you say you won't issue bonds?"

"Wei Wuzhi has a beard all over his face. Why can't he speak and act like a young man?"

……

Cao Shen looked around, a bit of confusion flashing across his face.

After all, when Liu Ying first issued bonds, Cao Shen was the prime minister of Qi State. He had not seen with his own eyes the empty streets and many people who had no worries about food and drink, so he was doubtful about the so-called sudden wealth from bonds.

With his attitude, his family would not tell him even if they bought bonds.

Without him, I am afraid of nagging...

Liu Ying stretched out her hand and gestured twice: "Interest of 65% per thousand, promised to be redeemed in three years. The bonds are anonymous and can be traded at any time."

Wang Ling leaned forward and asked, "May I ask Your Majesty, when will it be released?"

Liu Ying thought for a while: "On the third day of next month, Taibu said that day was an auspicious day, and the Royal Bank was officially listed and started selling bonds at the same time."

"The third day of next month?" Wang Ling calculated and nodded gently: "In other words, there are five more days!"

Liu Ying nodded: "That's right. I forgot to mention that the bond sale this time is at the Royal Bank, so it only accepts cash, which is the officially issued currency, and does not accept money notes or other collateral!"

Wang Ling's eyes suddenly widened.

If it was cash, he would start making preparations now.

After all, for a big family like his, the usual way of saving is not to save metal currency, but to store precious metals such as gold bricks and silver ingots.

Therefore, if the Royal Bank only accepts cash, then it needs to first exchange the gold bricks and silver ingots into the corresponding silver dollars.

Thinking of this, Wang Ling resigned decisively and raced against time.

There are many courtiers and nobles who have the same idea as him.

In an instant, the only ones left around Liu Bang were Lu Wan, who was not short of money, and Cao Shen, who looked confused.

"Sixty-five thousandths?" Lu Wan shook her head and smiled: "Is such a small amount of money worth traveling in such a hurry?"

Liu Ying laughed silently and said nothing, deciding to wait until one day for Lu Yu to return to her parents' home to "visit relatives".

Well, I just want to fight against the autumn wind and search hard for this guy!

Liu Lebian said with a flat mouth: "Uncle Lu is so loud! You don't even care about 65% interest! Uncle Lu, do you know the income from leasing farmland?"

Lu Wan shook her head.

His Yan Kingdom occupies a vast area, with plains, rivers, lakes, seas, mountains and forests. He can earn more money by doing nothing every year than he can spend in three lifetimes, so he only spends money and never cares about anything else.

Liu Le raised three fingers: "Three percent! The maximum cannot exceed 5.00%!"

Lu Wan frowned: "So?"

Liu Le stared: "So, the interest rate of 65% per thousand is very good! You can get so much money for nothing in a year without doing anything! This money is no different from the money blown by the strong wind!"

"Then what if he doesn't redeem it?" Lu Wan smiled and started to argue: "I've heard people say that many bonds issued over the years eventually defaulted, or the bonds depreciated so much that they didn't even recover the principal. …”

"How can it be the same?" Liu Le crossed his arms: "This is a bond issued by the Neishi Mansion, and it uses the credit of the Nei Shi Mansion as a guarantee. If this cannot be cashed out, then we might as well turn the government into a wet market. Got it!"

"Moreover, ordinary people have bought bonds and are worried that the government will not repay them, but what do you, the Prime Minister, have to fear?"

Yes!I forgot about this... Cao Shen's eyes widened and he nodded vigorously.

Lu Wan looked at Liu Bang, full of emotion: "I can't admit it. It's really more difficult for people to die than for others... Your second Ya is much better than my first Ya!"

Do you dare to say this in front of Lu Yu... Liu Ying decided to report to Lu Yu when she got back.

Erya refers to Liu Le. After all, she shamelessly placed herself ahead of Liu Ying in the ranking. Daya naturally refers to Lu Yu. Men and women in their family are ranked separately.

Liu Le looked at Liu Ying with a reserved face.

Liu Bang also looked over.

Liu Ying waved her hand: "I didn't teach you this! I think I should ask Zhang Buyi!"

Liu Bang nodded silently, and his favorability towards Zhang Buyi increased slightly.

But Liu Le said bluntly: "It has nothing to do with Zhang Buyi, I learned it all from Xu Fu!"

"Well, she is my real estate consultant. Half of the money in the princess's house is in Xu Fu's house! Not only me, but many ladies and ladies in Chang'an City also put their private money in Xu Fu's house!"

"The annual interest rate is [-]% per thousand. Although it is small, there are dividends every month!"

After Liu Le finished speaking, he was very proud.

Liu Ying was stunned and dumbfounded.
