Many people don't know.

In fact, money does not exist.

It's called currency.

Currency is issued as a guarantee of a country's credibility. When a country's credibility is good, currency is money. When a country's credibility collapses, currency is waste paper.

The current Fu Han General's Mansion can barely be regarded as a small country. In theory, Wu Nian can issue currency, that is, print money.

But in practice, it may be difficult.

But there is one thing.

It's also a good idea.

Create something out of nothing.

Thinking of this, Wu Nian couldn't sit still. He stood up and walked to the door, telling the guard guarding the door: "Go and invite Liu Zhixing, Li Yong, Wang Youxiao, and Gongsun Sang."

"yes."

The soldier bent down and responded, then immediately turned around and went down. But at this moment, Wu Nian saw Gongsun Sang walking towards here.

"Lord Gongsun." The soldier stopped quickly, bent down and saluted.

Gongsun Sang nodded lightly, then passed over the soldiers and came to Wu Nian, bowed and said: "General, I have a way to collect money."

"Huh?" Wu Nian looked at him in surprise, then showed joy and said, "Come in and talk."

"Yes." Gongsun Sang responded.

So the two of them entered the room and sat down together.

"I was sending someone to discuss things with you and the three officials. I didn't expect you to come first. If you have any ideas, please tell me." Wu Nian looked at Gongsun Sang with great appreciation.

This young house owner is really good at making money. He just asked the three officials to delegate the matter to the officials and let the officials come up with ideas. Gongsun Sang had an idea.

Gongsun Sang immediately clasped his fists and said, "General, I thought we could set up a shipping department."

"Huh?!!!!" Wu Nian raised his eyebrows, his expression a little strange.

"General. But I made a mistake?" Gongsun Sang was originally full of ambition, but when he saw Wu Nian's expression, his heart suddenly skipped a beat and he said cautiously.

"No. You are right, but someone said it first. I came here to discuss this matter with you." Wu young man shook his head lightly and said.

"Uh!" Gongsun Sang was filled with frustration, and someone actually got there first. Damn it.

"Although you are a step slow, it proves that you are really thinking about this problem seriously. This is good." Wu Nian saw that Gongsun Sang was hit and couldn't help but praise him.

"Thank you, General." Gongsun Sang suddenly showed joy and said with cupped fists.

Wu Nian couldn't help but laugh. He was talented and loyal, but after all, he was a bit younger. He didn't have a palace.

After a while, Liu Zhixing, Li Yong, and Wang Youxiao walked in. After everyone was seated, Wu Nian explained the affairs of Shibo Division.

Everyone has no opinion on the establishment of a shipping department.

But how to establish it is a problem.

After Liu Zhixing thought for a long time, he raised his head and said to Wu Nian: "General, re-measure the land and uncover the hidden acres. The workload is already huge. Now that the Municipal Shipping Department has been established, there are not enough officials. Many officials have to be recruited."

"Besides, the Shipping Department is a bureaucracy. If one company is allowed to dominate, I'm afraid there will be problems sooner or later."

"We must let the household offices dispatch officials and the local prefecture dispatch officials to jointly manage it, and cooperate with Lieutenant Li of the Navy to maintain the operation of the Municipal Shipping Department and combat smuggling."

"We have to send the inspector of meritorious service as a supervisor."

"In addition, with the size of Liaodong, it is enough to set up a shipping department."

Gongsun Sang nodded, raised his hands and said to Wu Nian: "General Liu Changshi is right. Although the current officials can be trusted, the establishment of a yamen cannot only rely on the quality of officials, but also relies on systems to maintain order.

Put an end to corruption.”

"Yeah." Wu Qingqing nodded lightly. If an official is not corrupt, he cannot rely solely on his conscience, but also on the system.

Shibo Division is still a super oil and gas yamen.

It is good for the central and local governments to dispatch officials to jointly manage and supervise each other.

The Shibosi is also a special yamen. It is not one, but can be countless.

For example, a city the size of Liaodong only needs one shipping department. Merchants would disembark at this shipping department to conduct transactions.

But what about Chu State, which is so large? Important ports along the coast all have independent shipping departments.

"Let's set up the Municipal Shipping Department in Jinghai County. Leave it to Lu Sheng, the prefect of Guangchuan Prefecture. From now on, maritime merchants from Liaodong going to sea, or foreign merchants coming in, must go through the Municipal Shipping Division in Jinghai County. Otherwise, all

Considered smuggling.”

"It's the same as the salt and iron franchise. Anyone who is smuggled will be hanged if caught."

"In addition, for various commodities, how to collect taxes and how to extract goods? You can discuss together and formulate rules and regulations."

After Wu Nian thought for a while, he raised his head and said to everyone.

"yes."

Everyone clasped their fists in response, with solemn expressions on their brows. The workload was huge, and the officials would have to keep their feet on the ground again.

Wu Nian is still the same as before. He comes up with ideas, grasps the general direction, and does the work, leaving the people below him to take full responsibility.

How to be a hands-off shopkeeper, he is already familiar with it.

"Whether it's re-surveying the land or establishing a shipping department, these are all good things. But the results are too slow. I'm coming to see you today. The shipping department is one thing. The only thing left is to be able to quickly

Ways to make money.”

Next comes the highlight. Wu Nian's facial expressions and eyes are full of joyful smiles.

The pressure to make money suddenly disappeared.

happy.

"Huh?!" Everyone looked surprised, and then they all looked happy. No money, no money, no money.

This is a problem that has existed since the establishment of the Fu Han General's Office, no, since the beginning of the war against Mongolia in the year of Wu.

Make money quickly?

All the officials in the Han general's palace were dreaming of ways to make money quickly.

Wu Nian is by no means a random person.

He said it was there.

That's great.

"Please tell me, General." Liu Zhixing suppressed the joy in his heart, clasped his hands and said sincerely.

"This method is to borrow money."

"I want to borrow money from all the wealthy merchants and gentry in my three prefectures in Liaodong, as well as the merchants who travel between Liaodong and Chu, Goguryeo, and Fusang."

"I issue treasury bonds on the basis of the credibility of Wu Nian, my general who assisted the Han Dynasty."

"Issue registered and unregistered treasury bonds."

"Anonymous treasury bonds can be bought and sold by private parties. The issuance date is one year, and the annual interest rate is three percent."

"Registered treasury bonds have no interest and are not allowed to be bought and sold by private parties. They are exclusively issued to foreign businessmen who are friendly to us, except for Mongolians."

"Foreign businessmen who have held registered treasury bonds for more than five years can purchase houses and fields and obtain Liaodong household registration."

"If there is no national debt, then I'm sorry. Let foreign businessmen sell the properties in Liaodong."

"The two kinds of national debt."

"The denomination of the issue is at least five hundred taels."

"Each issued one hundred thousand taels."
