Chapter 26: 26
Zhao Lingxin walks in the Royal Garden. Today is a holiday, and there are no cabinet meetings. Zhao Lingxin took this opportunity to relax and watch the flowers in the garden.
Zhao Lingxin felt very lonely. In this era, there is not much entertainment.
Every day, Zhao Lingxin reads poetry. Persuade Zhang Kong, a close person, to sit around and play chess. Zhao Lingxin was looking forward to the advent of the computer and the Internet era very quickly. When that time comes, he will spend the day diving into the fantasy world.
Zhang Kong poured tea for Zhao Ling Xin. Zhao Ling Xin sipped a cup of tea while watching the serene and peaceful atmosphere without any distractions.
However, that peace did not last long, and someone came to report him.
"Your Highness, Minister Sun Wanping, asks to visit."
Zhao Lingxin smiled. His ministers are very industrious. Even if there is no discussion, try to find free time to talk all the time privately. Zhao Lingxin nodded, signaling that he allowed it. The eunuch hurriedly widened Sun Wanping to meet.
"I respectfully inform His Majesty," Sun Wanping salutes.
"Sun Wanping, please sit in the pavilion first."
Zhao Ling Xin invited Sun Wanping up. Eunuch ZhangKong then poured another new cup of tea for the Minister.
After sitting and chatting for a moment, Zhao Lingxin asked.
"Where did the mission of the Ministry of Economy and Trade go?"
"Your Majesty, at this time, there are many companies who are interested. Right now, large family companies and small merchants are trying to get their companies on the stock exchange," Sun Wanping reported.
"The Ministry of Economy and Trade needs to monitor companies on the stock exchange periodically. That they can actually run a business or not. Do not let deception happen; do you understand?" Zhao Lingxin warned.
Because he knows the stock market's history very well, fraud has occurred throughout hundreds of years, including account falsification. Lie on the fundamentals of the company Leading to the loss of large amounts of money, causing many economic crises. The stock market is like a two-edged sword that requires careful handling. Do not let the sword turn back to harm yourself.
"Your Majesty, do not worry. I have set up an audit committee. Companies that do not meet the criteria will be blacklisted and immediately removed from the stock exchange." Sun Wanping assured Zhao Lingxin.
In recent days, Sun Wanping, as the Minister of Economy and Trade, has been able to make political contributions to the eyes of other ministers. Now, his identity and status were no less inferior to anyone else.
Starting from 7 days ago, after the decree was issued to establish the Shenzhou Empire Stock Exchange, the Ministry of Economic and Trade has issued regulations for company registration. As a result, many merchants went to see the industrial factories, pouring out their money almost entirely to bring money to set up companies.
That amount of money quickly circulated the Shenzhou economy. Causing many more private businesses, Such as the construction business Zhao Lingxin did not cherish the cement.
Causing many private companies to decide to use materials that are durable and cheap to open up a construction business
They spend a lot of money on government construction workers to join them. Zhao Lingxin did not prevent this action.
Zhao Lingxin wanted to achieve capitalist free trade. Workers can change jobs freely to receive higher wages.
Due to the increase in factories, the demand for raw materials is increasing steadily. This caused the production of raw materials in the vicinity of Shenzhou to not meet the demand.
Causing a need to import goods from the surrounding Prince's territory Trade without borders, merchants who received news of massive demand for raw materials quickly began to flow into Shenzhou.
Newly established industrial plants by companies also create huge labor demand. As a result, merchants need to quickly recruit people from outside the country and absorb refugees to work in the capital.
Capitalism was born in the Yanhuang Continent. Furthermore, this capitalism is growing madly in Shenzhou, like a demon awakening from millennia of hibernation. Release the infinite human desires in the form of capitalism.
"Your Majesty, according to the assessment and collection of statistics of the Ministry of Economy and Trade, Many merchants invested about 7 million silver coins. Moreover, generating at least 20,000 rates, which is the lowest estimate.
The ministry also estimated that the labor demand could surpass 100,000 people," Sun Wanping reported, and even he was shocked by the numbers.
"Very good, the economy is expanding rapidly," said Zhao Lingxin, satisfied.
Seven million gold is equivalent to a two-year budget. The mad merchants even invested large sums of money.
A few days ago, the Cabinet led finance and economics experts to assess Shenzhou's capital's GDP. It was found that Shenzhou alone would have a GDP of around 18-20 million coins.
Furthermore, the entire Shenzhou Empire is estimated to have a GDP of about 60-80 million coins, an uncertain figure that lacks a complete set of numbers. However, the preliminary assessment gave the Cabinet a rough idea of the economic figures in the empire.
Seven million dollars that merchants invested This is comparable to 40 percent of the GDP of Shenzhou Capital. This large amount of money Causing economic growth to skyrocket
"Your Majesty, this is a list of companies that have been registered," Sun Wanping laid out a document to Zhao Lingxin.
Zhao Lingxin quickly swept his gaze and found that there were ten registered companies. The three companies, of course, belong to the famous family of the capital. The other seven companies belong to small merchants, bringing together money to form a company. The names of the large family companies were straightforward to spot.
Wan Qing Group of Industry is a company on behalf of the Chui Clan, which has obtained the rights to manufacture many modern products. Furthermore, dozens of factories of Wan Qing Industry Group have become a famous company soaring into the sky. Chui Weihong was determined that he would have to spread the goods all over the Great Zhou land as soon as possible.
The Deng family was different. They formed the Deng family shipping company. Serving to convey raw materials to the transportation of products for distribution Zhao Lingxin was fond of this Deng Clan Head's idea of investing in logistics without no one stealing the piece of cake in this business.
Sun Technology has been granted the right to distribute high-tech products such as metal smelting and weapons manufacturing. In the future, it will be considered first by the government to acquire production technology.
There was no doubt that the Sun Clan obtained this beautiful piece of meat was related to a minister like Sun Wanping. No merchant dared to argue. Can't help it. Who made the Sun Clan follow the emperor first? So they received a beautiful piece of meat. As for them, they can only drink soup.
The remaining seven companies were given separate production rights. When capitalism began to emerge, Mass production began. A large amount of raw material is transported into the processing plant to produce goods.
Countless carriages were heading towards Shenzhou. Causing heavy traffic; fortunately, the cement road is strong and durable and allows the carriages to travel quickly.
The problem of traffic jams has already begun. Zhao Lingxin felt a headache at this challenging problem. He immediately threw traffic congestion to the Cabinet. Let the Cabinet argue at the conference table to find a solution to traffic jams.
The Cabinet saw that with just the start, Shenzhou had a traffic jam. If left aside, Shenzhou would become an immovable metropolis. Just one kilometer, it takes people over an hour to travel. The Cabinet, therefore, plans to resolve this issue quickly.
The first is to enact traffic laws. Divide lanes in traffic, including arranging for police officers to work at each intersection. To carry out the periodic car release, a concierge is required because there is no traffic light yet.
Next up is a long-term solution. Public transport and mega-projects such as underpasses and tunnels And skywalk Major Lian Aun, Minister of Industry He was a military engineer, so he was tasked with designing an entirely new city. Taking into account the upcoming large-scale projects
Therefore, the Cabinet approved a plan for the construction of large-scale public utilities, including elevated roads, electric trains, public transport vehicles, bridges, tunnels, and the total budget. 5 million coins this will cause the remaining inventory budget from the previous seizure to be used up.
Zhao Lingxin approved this plan as the last. No matter how much money is left, it is not very helpful without it being used. Besides, only five million, Zhao Ling Xin was confident that he would find it in no time.
When many construction plans are approved, The government sector has announced many more workers to support rapid construction. Nevertheless, significant problems arose. Shenzhou was first short of labor.
