Black Dragon Code
Chapter 365: money
"Your Majesty, the Empire desperately needs a war."
It wasn't the bosses of war monsters like Hog and Nero, but the half-lich Rennes: "I think we must invade a fertile land as soon as possible to conquer, kill, and plunder."
"why?"
Caesar looked down at him suspiciously. Although this black dragon is not a good guy, he is not always dominated by the desire for conquest in the body like the five-colored dragon. Caesar himself does not desire war, especially meaningless war without purpose. What he didn't want.
"I'm sorry to remind you that the Treasury of the Empire has fallen short."
Rennes said with his head down, "Our export trade and taxes are not enough to support the cost of the empire. In addition to the profitability of the assembly line arsenal, the Blackwing army, weapons research institute, materials manufacturing room, shipyard, and smelter you support are all It takes a lot of money to support it, and now we are stretched. "
Caesar showed a little surprised look: "You said that the state treasury had a deficit? We have more than 3,000 armored weapons exported every month, plus the bulk trade of grain and wood, incidentally, the highly profitable elegy card, along with the tax , Can't even offset the consumption of the empire? "
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Rennes nodded, and took out a pile of books from the pocket of space: "This is the income and expenditure details of the empire throughout the year. The following people have been counted and can be checked at any time. If you need."
"Forget it."
The black dragon shook his claws and asked him to look at these things. It was a torture. No wonder Ren said that the empire needs a war of aggression. This is the fastest way that these guys can think of making money. War money is indeed easy. This is even more true for a mixed empire like Wing.
But Caesar's interest in such warfare was unsettled, and a country's reliance on plunder to maintain internal consumption was not a long-term strategy. Necessary institutions such as shipyards and weapons research institutes could not be stopped. He had to think of money.
"How long will it last if I open my treasure chest?"
Caesar asked muffledly that his treasure trove and the imperial treasury were not the same thing. After ruling the entire Northland, the guy finally became rich. The black dragon had a mountain of gold and silver treasures in the treasure trove deep in the palace, enough for the empire. Splurge for a while.
When Rennes stunned, what a treasure meant to a dragon was extremely clear to anyone. The Black Dragon Emperor was not bad without taking all the gold coins of the empire as his own. His voice went down immediately. Your Majesty ... Even if we do not pay compensation, those people must work for Wang Ting; and your Black Wing Army is loyal to you and will never cause turmoil due to lack of food. "
"Are you joking?"
The black dragon glared at him and blew two white gas from his nose, and a thunderous voice echoed in Wang Ting: "I ask how long can you support?"
"This ... can't be accurately estimated, but even so, it can only support half a year to a year."
"enough."
Caesar snorted loudly: "Okay, this is the end of the matter for now. Now you listen carefully, I will discuss other things with you."
"It's an honor." Rennes bowed.
"Go and notify the leaders and clan leaders in each area that Wang Ting will open a bank in the entire Northland."
"Bank?" Ryan repeated it subconsciously, and then searched in his long memory, and found that there was no such word. Then he raised his head and looked at the Emperor Black Dragon with a doubtful look.
"You put aside the things on the caster team for a while. I'll talk to you briefly, and you listen carefully, because you are responsible for the next related matters."
Caesar said: "The empire did spend a lot of money, but the money did not disappear, but in the form of payment and purchase of goods, went from the treasury to the hands of the people and businessmen. I once said-only spent Gold coins are meaningful. But their meaning may end here, because most gold coins have been hidden in human hands and turned into stones and buried in wine cellars and burrows. Low taxes cannot make them Go back to the empire, and that's why you told our treasury that the deficit was short. "
"Your Majesty, what do you mean?"
"I mean to find a way to get them back," Caesar said, and then glanced at the fire of the soul in the eye socket of Rennes, adding: "Of course, not by way of predatory force."
"Then what should we do? Human beings are miser. If you don't use coercive means, these **** guys will never voluntarily return these gold coins that belong to the empire to the empire," said the half-lich.
"Just because people know that gold coins are valuable, they are reluctant to return them to the empire."
Caesar said: "But if the empire now tells them that as long as the gold coins are lent to the empire, as time goes by, more gold coins belong to them?"
"I don't understand, Your Majesty."
Rennes doubted: "You mean that the empire borrows money from the people and then gives them more money after a while. But then, it will be more difficult for us to have the remaining gold coins ~ www.mtlnovel .com ~ No, once the empire returns more money to the first person, more and more people will be willing to lend money to the empire, and the empire will only have more and more money. "Caesar denied .
"I understand."
Ren nodded: "In my memory, no one has done this kind of thing. There was a businessman who did this in the central trading city. After the news spread, suddenly a few large creditors jointly requested this businessman. He repaid the debt, and he couldn't take out so much money, and was later dismembered. "
His words surprised Caesar a little. I did not expect that there were many intelligent people in Eladia. Black Dragon paused and nodded, "Yes, but the empire is different from the merchant. The empire is the guarantee for people's survival. The empire is the lord of the lives of the inhabitants, and the empire is a trusted authority and guarantee. As long as the empire prospers, even if it only maintains prosperity on the bright side, this situation is very difficult to appear. "
"However, in order to prevent this from happening, you can also add some rules, such as borrowing money within a month to recover no profit, borrowing profits every more than one year, reclaiming the loan and recalculating the profit after lending, etc."
Rennes hesitated: "However, if the gold coins don't increase in the end, this illusion will sooner or later be pierced one day, and that will probably cause deeper turbulence."
"What if it really increased?" Caesar crooked his head. "This world can be more than just a country. The empire can do too much with surplus money. How can it not increase?"
"You are well thought out."
Rennes convinced himself to bow and salute. The last question is: "It's just that the empire borrowed money from the people. There has never been such a thing in Eladia since ancient times. Is it a bit unpleasant to pass it on?"
"Then give it another name." 8) More exciting novels, welcome to visit everyone's reading school
