Section 704 Financing Means(1/2)
Until he returned to the county government, Liu Jin felt his scalp numb and he was extremely excited.
There is no way, the grand occasion described by Zhang Yue is a fatal attraction that no ruler wants to make a difference!
So much so that he almost forgot that he went to the Workshop Garden this time to find funds for Xinfeng's next channel construction.
He finally remembered before he arrived at the county government office.
"Zhang Qing..." He pulled Zhang Yue's sleeve sitting in front of him and asked, "How to solve the problem of channel construction funds?"
"Your Highness, don't worry..." Zhang Yue turned around and bowed: "This matter has been resolved!"
"Ah?" Liu Jin looked at Zhang Yue without understanding, feeling difficult to understand.
I went to the workshop garden and the matter was solved?
This is... too exaggerated, right?
Zhang Yue looked at Liu Jin's appearance and smiled. He knew that it was impossible for people who had been BC to know what kind of life the financial capital of later generations could have.
After thinking about it, Zhang Yue paused his head and said, "Your Highness, the workshop garden is now booming in various industries and has broad sales. I would like to congratulate you!"
"This is all the credit of Qing, Sang Qing and Ding Qing!" Liu Jin listened and said modestly: "I didn't do anything at all..."
This is a fact. Since the establishment of the Workshop Garden, Liu Jin has been working as a hand-off manager in addition to nodding his head and consenting. He occasionally goes to see and inspect it.
Even Zhang Yue didn't do much.
In addition to the initial investment promotion and planning layout, the administration is Sang Jun and Ding Yan for other major and large affairs.
He did not do much except to come up with ideas and occasionally provide some inspiration.
but……
This is actually the key factor in the development of the Workshop Garden!
What industry and commerce are most afraid of is supervision and restrictions.
As long as the ruling class does not restrict it, this is the greatest benefit for industry and commerce!
When Emperor Taizong of Han was reigned, the main reason why the industrial and commercial economy of the Han Dynasty flourished was that the politicians in power, the Huang-Lao politicians who had been in power relaxed the various restrictions and shackles that had been put on the necks of merchants since Shangjun, so that they could develop freely.
In just 20 or 30 years, the industry and commerce of the Han Dynasty flourished to an unprecedented situation.
The businessmen who broke out, carrying huge amounts of funds, returned home in glory and bought houses and land.
There is even a saying among the people that is simple and feudal.
And those super merchants are even richer than the country, and they dare to compete with the princes and kings!
Although the current workshop owners of Xinfeng Workshop Garden are far less than those of the time of Emperor Taizong and the late emperors.
However, compared with other colleagues, they are undoubtedly less restrictive and supervised.
As long as they produce and sell according to the government's deployment and plan, they can make money while lying down.
The government even provided them with various conveniences and policy support.
If this happens, they can't grow up quickly.
That can only prove that they are not suitable for operating industries.
"Your Highness..." Zhang Yue looked at Liu Jin and bowed: "Now, the workshop garden has developed to a certain stage..."
"In particular, all kinds of goods produced in the workshop are sold to Guanzhong, or even to Kanto!"
"I heard that many people, when they heard that it was made by Xinfeng, had no doubts and bought it immediately. They all thought that there were virtuous grandsons in the Han Dynasty and would not harm the common people!"
Liu Jin's face turned red and he looked very excited. Of course, he was still very modest: "What kind of virtue can you do? You can be blessed with the elders!"
Zhang Yue smiled and said, "Your Highness is kind and filial, how can the elders not love you?"
"Just..." He changed his tone and said worriedly: "If there is an unworthy person who bribes the superiors and subordinates, sells the unfit things as qualified things and causes harm to the people, wouldn't it be a harm to your nobles' reputation? Is it a pity that your nobles are worried!"
When Liu Jin heard this, he immediately became serious.
Everyone in the Liu family can ignore it.
However, in front of the lower-class civilians, they will definitely work hard to maintain their image.
Just like today's son, he is a king who is extravagant and squandered in the eyes of scholars and nobles.
In historical books, Emperor Xiaowu of Shizong became a negative example.
But now, in the eyes of the lower class, the image of this emperor is very good!
Whenever you go to the Guanzhong countryside, you can hear the stories circulating among the farmers.
The story is usually the legend left by the emperor when he was young and visited Guanzhong.
Because of these stories and legends, the image of this emperor in the hearts of the people of Guanzhong has always been very vivid. In addition, although he was in power for a long time, he also did a lot of confused things and did a lot of ridiculous things.
But he never let himself stand in direct opposition to the people.
On the contrary, after going on tours, this Majesty has been spending money all the way.
Who would have any objections to an emperor who likes to pay benefits?
The people's anger and dissatisfaction were transferred by their cleverness to the landlords, gentry, and bureaucrats.
In most people's hearts, the emperor is good and loves the people, and the bad are corrupt officials and treacherous villains.
Although Liu Jin was young, he was already regarded as the grandson to train him.
How can you not understand the ancestral skills of the Liu family?
So he immediately asked, "With your opinion, what should I do to prevent the people from being damaged?"
"Seither the payment!" Zhang Yue looked up, looked at Liu Jin, and said softly.
"Seither the payment?" Liu Jin's eyes lit up.
"Your Highness, I have considered this issue when I was building the workshop garden..."
"Now, everything in the workshop garden has been decided. For a long-term plan, I ask Your Highness Xu Chen to order Xinfeng Industrial and Commercial Bureau to withhold some payment for the goods and postpone the delivery workshop!" Zhang Yue said softly.
In the wave of capital in later generations, channels are king.
What are Walmart and Carrefour, they are all masters!
If you want to supply the goods, you must accept their overbearing terms and payment will be settled quarterly or monthly.
The e-commerce wave that emerged later developed this model to the extreme.
Goudong and Tianmiao both need users to confirm receipts and there is no quality problem before the seller will settle the payment for the goods.
Now, Xinfeng's Industry and Commerce Administration also has such a domineering position.
Almost most of the workshop products are sold by the Administration for Industry and Commerce.
Therefore, the status of the Administration for Industry and Commerce is actually a monopoly state-owned enterprise.
As long as there is a suitable excuse, the Administration for Industry and Commerce can withhold part of the payment as a quality deposit.
In terms of current sales, even if only 30% are deducted, I am afraid that there will be tens of millions of funds in a month!
With the profits of the Administration for Industry and Commerce, it is possible to pay for the funds for channel construction and other matters of Xinfeng.
Of course, the workshop owners can also disagree and not accept it.
But do they dare?
Can they?
In addition to Xinfeng, can they find better places to invest?
Liu Jin heard this, but suddenly coughed. Of course he knew what Zhang Yue’s subtext was?
Use the withheld payment to get Xinfeng’s construction funds!
This is a pretty thing to borrow a chicken to lay eggs!
There will be no problems.
Because, each batch of goods will be intercepted as part of the payment, and when the old payment is delivered, the new payment has been withheld.
In theory, as long as the sales of Xinfeng Workshop Garden are increasing, there will be no problem.
Liu Jin could figure out these questions just by thinking about them for a moment.
Because, these days, he has been reading books such as Guanzi, Shangjun Books, and even "Huainanzi", which are somewhat taboo.
Moreover, after spending so long with Zhang Yue, I have heard some of the so-called "financing methods" that Zhang Yue occasionally reveals.
only……
He was thin-skinned after all, so he felt a little awkward.
I always feel like I don’t have any grass to do this.
but……
Thinking of the eyes of the people in Xinfeng, he became hardened.
"Your meaning is, I know..." Liu Jin said with a little shame: "Ji Ren really needs to bear some... Well, social responsibility!"
To be continued...
