Chapter 502 The era of badass
Bonds are a good thing. As long as the government's reputation does not go bankrupt, bonds can raise a large amount of funds for it.
Zhao Liang also firmly believes that as long as he can achieve results in the first few years, he will never worry about money in the future.
Don’t you see if he has already launched a silver coupon? This thing is an alternative banknote.
After two years, after everyone is familiar with the silver coupons, will there be any problem with Zhao Liang issuing paper money again?
As long as the banknotes issued by the state are not bankrupt, the government will not fish in an uncontrollable way. For example, the Yuan Dynasty banknotes in history, Zhu Ming’s Ming Baochao, or Chang Dashang’s future legal currency, how could Zhao Liang lack money to spend with China’s status in the Eastern world and the East-West trade?
So he issued a series of bonds without any mercy.
Anyway, the "people" are not at a disadvantage.
No matter what, Zhao Liang used the things to mortgage it.
These bonds have no expiration date and still have one cent interest every year. He took out the copper mines in Yunnan and land in Northeast China as collateral. It is much better than the "persuading donations" in the Qing Dynasty?
In addition to this bond issue that shocked the entire China, what surprised the world merchants the most was that Zhao Liang cut the checkpoints in various provinces. For internal transportation, he only needed to pay a traffic management fee that was much less than the previous tariffs, and you could travel around the country at will.
If you go to Guangzhou for tea from Fujian, you don’t need to change water and land transportation multiple times, just transport it by sea.
Even if you trade with foreigners directly here.
Although Zhao Liang did not fully open his national borders, Tainan, Xiamen, Fuzhou, Ningbo, Jiangsu and Zhejiang, Shanghai, Haizhou (Lianyungang) in Jiangbei, Jiaozhou, Qilu, and Tianjin, Zhili, are all newly opened trading ports.
There were even reports that the court was preparing to set up several new banks, and there were even reports that King Zhao would release two private banks. Once this news broke, it would have caused greater shock to the business community in the north and south by land bonds.
Unfortunately, the thunder is loud and the rain is small. The new China Construction Bank, Bank of Communications and Industrial and Commercial Bank of China are all established, but private banks are completely gone.
In addition to storing, banks are more of commercial bills. Today, when the New Dynasty intends to relax business, banks are no longer a question of whether they can make money, but a question of how much money they can make.
Everyone sees the current development trend of Huitong Bank.
Since the Zhao family gained a foothold and restored branches in their own territory, Huitong Bank has taken a crucial step.
It represents the transformation of Huitong Bank from private private capital to "royal" assets. In today's China, no matter which industry it is placed, it will be a qualitative leap.
Moreover, Huitong Bank has fully recognized the previous storage and paid the interest.
This suddenly created a perfect golden body for Huitong Bank's credibility.
Now they were so overwhelmed by the large number of micro-loans from the beginning that they were so overwhelmed by the large number of micro-loans, and they supported them.
More and more people are willing to deposit money at Huitong Bank for interest, and many businessmen also think that banks are safer than their own cellars. War has already caused many wealthy business landlords to lose money. No matter how good the cellar is, they can't stop them from robbing them with guns and knives. Instead, they deposit the money in the bank. Huitong Bank recognizes this money.
This will form a relatively good virtuous cycle.
The subsequent effect is that the usury industry in various places has suffered a major blow.
At the same time, war and war also caused a great impact on the silver banking houses in various places. In this case, it was very conducive to the development of Huitong Bank.
In particular, the banking department has organized the Financial Daily, which published an introduction and analysis of the development history of the Western banking industry, and published the financial role and social significance that banks will play in Chinese society in the future. The role of banks will be presented to everyone more clearly.
Chinese businessmen dare not expect to obtain the state's currency minting and issuance rights after they run a bank, especially the issuance rights of paper money. However, the importance of a bank to a regional business group is also obvious.
There are already many business gangs in the controlled areas of Dachen, from traditional Shanxi merchants, Hui merchants, Su merchants, Zhejiang merchants, Guangdong merchants, to Qilu merchants and the rapidly rising Central Plains merchants.
Without the Dongting Mountain Gang, the Xi family was too tied to the Qing Dynasty, and Zhao Liang did not like the Xi family. This big family, which was famous for compradors in the dark times of China for a hundred years, no longer existed. After suffering severe blows and destruction, the Dongting Mountain Gang was integrated into the Suzhou Merchant Group, while the Hui merchants were still in full strength. Even if Chen Jun destroyed the salt merchants in Yangzhou early, the Hui merchants still had a lot of capital to invest in the industrial and commercial wave.
The leading figures, Cao Wentai, Cao Zhenyong and his son, are both very obedient people.
I bought a large number of bonds early and bought the safety of the family with millions of white silver dollars.
Zhejiang businessmen were the original Ningbo Hangzhou business groups as the main body, while Guangdong businessmen were centered on Guangzhou business groups, let alone Shanxi businessmen, all of whom are not short of money.
As for the Qilu and Central Plains merchants, the backbone of the former was the Zhuang clan of Yizhou, which seemed very natural. The backbone of the latter was not the Kang family of Heluo, and they were the most complex group of people.
These people mainly come from Chenzhou and Ruzhou, and are supported by many major officials in the military and political aspects of Chen. The background is so deep that it can sweep away all opponents.
But it is precisely because there are too many backers behind it that the Zhongyuan Business Group is attacking from all sides and is one of the most involved and most extensive industries among all business groups and has no core industries.
It can be said that the Central Plains Merchants have a very obvious Chinese traditional color - the combination of official and business.
Such an obvious combination of officials and businessmen, you have to say that there will be no illegal interests behind them, and the genius believes it.
But even with Zhao Liang's authority, this cannot be violated.
Everything was formed unknowingly. Can you still separate them?
And to be honest, all this was inevitable from the day he decided to start his business after traveling through time.
Anyway, the only thing Zhao Liang feels glad now is that the information in the future of the 19th century is far less smooth than the 21st century. Whether it is the tolerance of the people or society, it is much better than the information age.
Many people in the information age think that things are intolerable, but nowadays, they are sparse and ordinary.
After all, in the industrial era politics, is everyone competing for bad things?
My Qing Dynasty was defeated by Europe, and it was more of a defeat of agriculture to industry. It was not that corruption caused Daqingguo to defeat wars.
