The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

Chapter 2668: Issue metal currency

State of Zhao, Handan.

"The people of Qin are solving this matter. We need to wait patiently." Li Mu said after seeing the telegram sent back from the prime minister's mansion of Qin.

"The Prime Minister, I don't know if I should say something," Li Zuoche said at this time.

"Say, there is nothing I can't say." Li Mu rubbed his temples. Some things were very brain-intensive to deal with. Li Mu felt that some of his brain power was not enough.

"I think that we use Qin State currency, especially Qin State banknotes, a bit too passive." Li Zuoche said.

"Oh." Li Mu stopped rubbing and looked at Li Zuoche curiously. He didn't know why Li Zuoche thought of this.

"The prime minister, I think so. The supply of funds depends on the price of gold. In other words, gold is a foundation. Currently, Zhao Guo also has a gold production area. In addition, Zhao Guo's industry has risen. I think that we can obtain a large amount of gold reserves through foreign trade. With such a large amount of gold reserves, we can issue our own currency. At present, Koreans insist on using their own currency, that is, they issue paper money. , That is, they can issue more banknotes to support the liquidity of the market banknotes. In contrast, our Zhao country has to be much more passive. In many cases, we passively watch the Qin people release a large amount of funds in order to allow Our Zhao country has developed. In this way, we are very limited to the Qin country." Li Zuoche said.

"If we can issue our own banknotes, things like this can greatly solve our problems. We can take a large number of such measures to counteract, instead of waiting passively for Qin. If Qin and our Zhao are guilty, If that happens, the result is unimaginable." Li Zuoche said.

"I have thought about the idea you mentioned, but the current national strength of Zhao State has not yet reached the requirements for development. For example, if Zhao Guo rashly issues his own banknotes, what will happen? If Qin Jun calls directly, I The Zhao army now only has less than 100,000 troops, how to resist it. Besides, the Qin army’s technical arms far surpass our Zhao army. With logistics supplies and rail transportation, the Qin army can directly attack as long as they follow the railway. Our Zhao army company blocked it. There is no chance." Li Mu said.

"Besides, this requires a large amount of gold reserves to be issued. At present, Zhao Guo has not reached such a point. As you know, Zhao Guo's trade volume and national fiscal revenue. It is impossible to buy a large amount of gold. Look at the gold reserves. It's a lot, but if you look at the gold in our hands compared with Qin's bank and the government's gold reserves, you will know that our gold reserves are not enough at all. It is not even as good as a bank in Qin's country." Li Mu Speaking of.

"We can think about this matter, but it takes a long time to accumulate gold reserves. This matter can't be rushed, we can't rush." ​​Li Mu said.

"Yes. Prime Minister, I understand. We can't be in a hurry. If we are in a hurry, we will lose." Li Zuoche nodded and said.

"Well, this matter. We are passive, but there are other things we can do. For example, we can reduce the stamp duty collection, which can stimulate the stock market to rise. The rest depends on Qin." Li Mu said so.

Qin State, Xianyang.

"Increase liquidity can indeed increase the funds in the market." Shang Wen said after reading the report of Wenyang Bank.

"Especially bank deposit reserves, they are the main force of funds. Only when they buy a large amount of stocks in the Chu State market can they rise, and they will not overwhelm the markets of various countries." Meng Yi said to Shang Wen.

"We can let go of the bank's restrictions, but in this case, the funds on the bank will not be able to increase further." Shang Wen considered.

"Moreover, the government needs more funds to develop the Western Regions. The temperature in the Western Regions is getting warmer. How to solve this part of the funds and taxation has become impossible. This requires us to fully consider the actual conditions of all walks of life. If the civilians levy taxes, this will increase the burden of the people, which is definitely not good news for the government." Shangwen said.

"Yeah. But we have no way. My way is to increase the debt of the local government. This is the only way at present. The only way for the local government is that there is no debt, but we cannot sell these bonds. What other ways have we considered The national government can afford such a large number of bonds, but for the time being, it would be difficult for us to expand our bond business without good banking and financial institutions as intermediaries." Meng Yi said.

"The only way." Shang Wen paused and said.

"What?" Meng Yi asked, looking at Shang Wen.

"It is the right to issue currency in our hands. At present, the only thing the government has before is this. Only we borrow a large amount of capital from the bank to solve this problem, but at present, it seems unlikely. Because the bank's funds are also Lean towards the Chu State stock market." Shang Wen said.

"Yeah." Meng Yi nodded, and he began to think about the current predicament of Chu State. The Qin State government seems a little powerless, but there is a good way to solve this problem.

"Metal currency. Perhaps the only way is metal currency. We still have a large amount of gold reserves in our hands. If we sell these gold reserves, it will cause the price of gold to fall, which is not good for us, but if we make it into If gold metal currency is used for transactions in the Western Regions, I think the problem will be solved greatly. On the one hand, the countries in the Western Regions are currently in a state of currency tightening, and they too need a large amount of metal currencies to return to the Western Regions market. At the same time, our Qin currency also needs to take advantage of our Qin's currency to regain control of the Western Regions. Gold coins are the only method we can use at present. Although paper currency has good circulation, our Qin's The prestige cannot be spread, and the Qin State still lacks enough prestige and strength to expand our power." Meng Yi said to Shangwen.

"Issue metal currency." Shang Wen said.

"Yes, you said that although retrogression is a bad phenomenon, the issuance of metal currency can meet the needs of the Western Regions. This may be an improvement." Meng Yi said.

"That's right. It's very good. Regression is a step backward, but it doesn't mean that it is not suitable for the Western Regions." Shang Wen nodded.
