Chapter 365: Yan Shifan, the Wealth-Giving Boy
The establishment of the Capital Special Administrative Region was a lively event, but some people were unhappy.
For example, Yan Shifan, the most intelligent person in the Ming Dynasty, was unhappy with this matter.
Originally, he wanted to strongly oppose the establishment of the Capital Special Administrative Region, but he could not find the money to fill the holes in the Capital City Outer City Project, and the original project funds for the Capital City Outer City Project had already been used by him. The emperor's reason for building temples was misappropriated, and he didn't dare to take the lead.
So when Xu Jie presided over the court meeting to approve the establishment of the special zone in the capital, he was much more docile than usual and did not dare to show any thorns.
Now that the Capital Special Administrative Region has been launched with gongs and drums, Yan Shifan's dissatisfaction has naturally been revealed.
Yan Shifan complained to Yan Maoqing, who had just returned to Beijing to hand over the salt tax and silver: "The emperor is just out of his mind. He actually came up with such a ridiculous method, and also let such sour people like Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng who only know how to talk If Ru Hanlin goes to preside over this so-called special zone in the capital, I think it will be a mess in the end!"
Yan Maoqing was used to hearing Yan Shifan's rebellious words, so he didn't react much.
Yan Maoqing said: "Mr. Xiaoge, you have heard that the Beijing Special Economic Zone Development Bank established in the Special Economic Zone actually gives interest on deposits. This is an unheard of thing! I thought there must be something fishy in it. "
But Yan Shifan said indifferently: "What's the trick? It's just that I just opened a new bank, and I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to get business, so I came up with such an unknown name, and then called it " Just trying to cheat money under the guise of interest.”
When Yan Shifan said this, Yan Maoqing swallowed the words that were already on his lips. The reason why Yan Maoqing took refuge with Yan Shifan in exchange for a bright future for himself was because he did not want to waste his time sitting on the bench in the Imperial Academy. The face and dignity he lost this time were mixed with Yan Shifan's.
But this does not mean that Yan Maoqing is a flatterer who only knows how to use tricks. Yan Maoqing is different from Yan Shifan. Yan Maoqing has certain real talents, especially the art of financial management, which belongs to Yan Maoqing. Expertise, otherwise he would not have been able to break into the Jianghuai Salt Fields, a place he was unfamiliar with, just by virtue of his status as an imperial envoy, achieve results so quickly, and receive a salt tax that is hundreds of thousands taels higher than that of the original salt official. .
It can be seen from this that Yan Maoqing's ability is by no means just flattery and clinging to others. He has real abilities, so he feels that this newly created Beijing Special Economic Zone Development Bank is not as simple as it appears.
Unfortunately, Yan Shifan didn't like hearing such words, so Yan Maoqing swallowed back the speculation he was about to say.
Yan Shifan thought he had a thorough understanding, and then he said to Yan Maoqing: "Go and calculate how much cash we have now, and then find a few people to hold it on our behalf for the development of this so-called Capital Special Zone. In the bank, I will continue to withdraw money every few days. I want to see how long they can persist.”
Yan Maoqing was stunned when he heard Yan Shifan's clever operation. Isn't this "capitalizing the enemy"? Everyone knows that the current Jingshi Special Economic Zone Development Bank is just a newly opened bank, and it is short of big customers to deposit and withdraw money there.
At this time, Yan Shifan was actually smart enough to deposit his own cash in other people's banks, and also thought of using frequent and fast withdrawals and deposits to test other people's abilities. Isn't this just a meat bun beating a dog? ?
Don’t he know that behind the Beijing Special Economic Zone Development Bank is the emperor and the financially powerful Shunyi Industrial Park?
Yan Maoqing hurriedly advised: "Don't do it, Xiaoge. This is just to give Gao Gong and others political achievements. Their bank is backed by His Majesty and Shunyi Industrial Park. If something unexpected happens, We can’t afford to go around.”
But Yan Shifan is already motivated. He just doesn’t like anything happening in the Jingshi Special Zone, so he wants to use his huge cash flow to give to the Jingshi Special Zone Development Bank. A lively crowd lesson. Yan Shifan snorted: "Of course it's not that simple. Didn't they say they can provide low-interest loans for five to ten years? Since we have deposited the money, we will find someone to lend it out, and then let the depositor If people go to withdraw money, I don’t believe that their money can be made out of nothing.”
“As long as it cannot be withdrawn even once, this bank will be doomed. At that time, another accident occurs in the Capital Special Administrative Region, that is, Xu Jie is incompetent, Gao Gong is incompetent, and then King Yu is incompetent. In this way Come, let’s see whether the Ming Dynasty will belong to King Yu or King Jing in the future!”
Yan Shifan is still thinking about seizing the direct descendants, thinking that he can use his intelligence to control the Ming Dynasty! The emperor belongs to a generation.
Yan Maoqing was frightened when he heard Yan Shifan's words, but he had been deeply bound to Yan Shifan for a long time and had no way out.
So, if he wants to go further in the future, he can only pray that the Yan family will not collapse and Yan Shifan will get what he wants.
Otherwise, even if he has not made any mistakes, he will be doomed when the time comes.
So Yan Maoqing gritted his teeth and stamped his feet, and said to Yan Shifan: "Don't worry, Mr. Xiaoge, I'll do my humble job now!"
Yan Shifan nodded with satisfaction, "Very good, you can do the work. I'm relieved."
But unfortunately, Yan Shifan still underestimated the "greed" of the world.
After the deposit and withdrawal details of the Beijing Special Economic Zone Development Bank were issued, in less than half a month, the Beijing Special Economic Zone Development Bank had already received six to seven hundred thousand taels of small-denomination unnamed banknotes in exchange. , and a large certificate of deposit of more than three million taels.
At the same time, after it was confirmed that the Shunyi Industrial Park would build a business headquarters in the Jingshi Special Economic Zone, many large merchants who had business dealings with the Shunyi Industrial Park also followed suit and started building the special zone business headquarters in the Shunyi Industrial Park. A new clubhouse is being built nearby.
For a time, the loan business of the Beijing Special Economic Zone Development Bank also started, lending out millions of taels of silver.
And because the money was needed to purchase land in the Beijing Special Economic Zone to build a new guild hall, it flowed back to the accounts of the Special Economic Zone Yamen and the Xishan Lime Factory and other construction materials factories in the suburbs of Beijing.
So, under such a cycle, the Jingshi Special Zone was suddenly revitalized, and the entire special zone was full of vitality.
As the main force in the construction of the Jingshi Special Zone, the Shuntian City Construction Department has also begun to follow the current development trend and give priority to the construction of the Guild Area Road centered on the business headquarters of the Shunyi Industrial Park in the Jingshi Special Zone.
And this guild hall area has naturally become a new benchmark for the Beijing Special Economic Zone. According to Zhu Zaijing, this is the future central business district of the Beijing Special Economic Zone. In the future, the wealth created by this area will also be a Astronomical figures!
Of course, neither Gao Gong nor Zhang Juzheng, who has also participated in the Capital Special Administrative Region and serves as the deputy to the Yamen chief of the Capital Special Administrative Region, is not sure about the weight of Zhu Zaijing's words. How big.
But they are not stupid, because they have already seen the extraordinary features of the Capital Special Zone from the information and data gathered from all parties.
