Yu Wenkai reported seriously: "The construction of the sewage pipes underground in the palace of Daxing City has been basically completed. The construction period is ahead of schedule. The construction of the palace has now begun. The city walls of Daxing City will also start construction soon. The sewage pipes underground in each district are basically completed.

The digging is complete and the construction period is ahead of schedule."

"His Royal Highness the King of Jin sold a square area, and Guangde Square received 149,400 yuan, which was fully charged to the account. The overall construction period of Daxing City is currently in line with expectations, and the financial situation is good."

"Other areas will begin to be sold one after another, and plans for hospitals and schools have been completed."

With such good operating conditions, Yang Jian naturally couldn't hide his joy.

But there is one thing that is not progressing smoothly, and that is the school.

Therefore, although the plan has been made, it has never been discussed. It is no surprise that the nobles and nobles are all opposed to the school.

If we say that when Yang Jian built Daxing City, officials and clan officials were opposed to it, and there were many who were openly opposed to buying houses secretly, because the emergence of Daxing City can only be said to have devalued their assets in the old Chang'an City. With the booming real estate market in Daxing City,

This devalued asset can be earned back, and Yang Jian is determined, even if the war continues, they have all changed.

The core interests are not damaged and may increase in value.

But schools are different. With the popularity of schools, the core interests of the nobles will inevitably be damaged. In this era, knowledge is the privilege of the nobles. If this privilege is decentralized, the children of farmers, traders, and workers will all

If they have the opportunity to receive education, most of the innate advantages of the children of the wealthy families will disappear.

Who wants something like this to happen?

The children of farmers will continue to be farmers, the children of hawkers will continue to be hawkers, and the children of wealthy families will continue to be wealthy families. This is the situation that these senior people are most happy with.

But this is not the situation Yang Jian wants to see.

The situations of the Sui Dynasty and the Qin Dynasty were very similar. Although the Qin Dynasty destroyed the Six Kingdoms, it did not destroy the nobles of the Six Kingdoms. In the vast land, it was the original nobles who actually controlled the power everywhere.

It was even worse in the Sui Dynasty. Yang Jian asked Yu Wenchan to join him in the Zen throne. The aristocracy of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, except for the royal family, had almost no changes. It was the same in the past. The emperor changed, but the aristocratic families developed over the years did not change.

Yang Jian became the emperor because he was strong, not because the imperial power was strong. The respect or fear of the imperial power among the nobles has been continuously weakened over the years. After Yang Jian became the emperor, he naturally wanted to continuously strengthen the imperial power to consolidate himself and his descendants.

Rule.

The school must do it, but it cannot be done forcefully. The resistance is too great. All the powerful clansmen have sent those respected clan elders to talk to me. They are soft fists, but they all represent their own opinions.

Schools can be set up in Guangdefang, because this is a high-end area, and most of the owners are members of the royal family, or current officials of the imperial court, and even the traders are the richest ones.

The school was mentioned just now, and everyone thought that Yang Jian wanted to take advantage of this moment to let Yang Guang talk about the school, so that everyone would not be in trouble on the big day, but they did not expect that this was not what Yang Guang was talking about.

Yang Guang stood in front of the steps, turned his back to the emperor, faced the ministers, and said with a smile: "I was ordered by the emperor to supervise the construction of Daxing City. I thank you for your support and sold some houses. However, Daxing City cost a lot of money. The money is still there."

It’s far from enough, and I’m not afraid of your jokes. I just want to borrow some money from you today.”

Borrow money?!

Everyone looked confused. No one expected that in such a scene, you would actually come out to borrow money. You are the royal family, you are the King of Jin, and you are the eunuch of Daxing City. You actually came to borrow money?

But in full view of everyone, Yang Guang just opened his mouth to borrow money.

Borrowing money has always been an embarrassing thing since ancient times, and it was mostly done in a secretive way. Who like Yang Guang reaches out to the public and blatantly says I want to borrow money.

The people present were whispering to each other, and it was inevitable that they were ridiculing in their hearts.

"To be precise, it's not me asking everyone to borrow money, but Daxing City asking everyone to borrow money."

They didn't understand what Yang Guang said. How can a city borrow money? It's not a human being. How can it ask the city wall of Daxing City for debt in the future?

The eunuch brought a box, and Yang Guang took out a piece of paper with the emperor's seal and written on it.

"This thing is called a national debt. It is a debt certificate issued in the name of the imperial court. You can spend money to subscribe for the corresponding amount of debt certificates. There will be an interest of 3% every year. After three years, you can use this debt certificate from the imperial court.

The principal and interest obtained will be used in the construction of Daxing City. The proceeds from the sales of Daxing City buildings are also visible to everyone. You don’t have to worry about Daxing City not being able to pay it back in three years. This national debt uses gold as currency.

”

Everyone, look at me and I look at you. Although I don’t understand, I just feel that Yang Guang is doing something very new.

Private loans are also available, and the interest rates are very high, unbelievably high, but very few people take advantage of this thing.

Why?

Because you can't get the money back, what's the use of even higher interest rates, and human life is worthless these days. If you borrow the money, beat, scold or even kill people, you can't get it back if you can't get it back. Labor is already cheap, so you plan to let it go.

It's a fantasy that he can earn money for you by working part-time. It's hard to find people in remote mountains and forests, and they don't have any skills.

Credit is a matter of words, and borrowing without physical guarantee is difficult to implement in this era.

Now the imperial court has stepped forward and used the imperial court's credibility as a guarantee to issue national bonds. Although the interest rate is very low, as long as the imperial court does not collapse, the bonds will make a profit without losing money.

But how long can the imperial court last?

All the nobles present couldn't help but ask this question in their hearts. The court has changed so fast over the years, who knows what will happen next?

Although Yang Jian is powerful, how many years can he stay on the throne?

If the Sui Dynasty falls, what will happen to the money you spend?

Yang Jian looked at everyone present with his eyes like a hawk. When Yang Guang told him about the national debt, his first reaction was that this is not a national debt. This is a loyalty tester for the ministers. It can clearly reflect the ministers' loyalty.

Your thoughts on the future of the Sui Dynasty.

After Yang Guang introduced the national debt, there was a complete silence below, which naturally reflected everyone's psychological state well.

Yang Jian gave Yang Yong a look. Although the prince was unwilling to help Yang Guang, he understood that this was not Yang Guang's matter. It was related to the Sui Dynasty and was a policy promoted by his father, so he had to stand up.

"Can my sons buy the national bonds sold by my father?"

"Okay."

"My son wants to subscribe for a national bond worth one thousand taels of gold. From now on, second brother, I will be your creditor."

The prince took the money, but he also wanted to overpower Yang Guang.

Yang Guang chuckled: "If you buy treasury bonds, you are naturally a creditor, but not my creditor. To be honest, brother, I bought all the treasury bonds except for daily expenses. This is a sure profit.

Why don't you buy it if you don't lose money? The court keeps the money for me, I'm not afraid of people stealing it, I'm not afraid of people robbing it, and I'll still get the interest when it's due. I'm happy just thinking about it. Are you worried that we won't be able to pay it back in three years?

?"

As soon as Yang Guang's question came out, everyone understood it.

The prince and the King of Jin have both bought it, can the prince and his party still buy it? How much does it mean, the minimum purchase of 50 taels of gold is not much, and everyone present can take it, so for the sake of face, they have to buy more.

Yang Jian looked at the people signing up with satisfaction. He figured out that there is another greater benefit of national debt. Anyone who bought national debt, especially those with large denominations, wanted the court to be stable more than anyone else. In this way, his

Money will never go down the drain.
