Chapter 25: 25
Silence covered the entire reception room. No one dared to speak out. Sun Wanping's words were almost unbelievable. The noble emperor, The supreme head of the region, had a message to deliver to merchants like him.
Merchant positions now are like an ant and termite. What did this emperor want to do? The brains of the low merchant in the room pondered each other in the chaos. Imagine the possibilities. Their bodies suddenly trembled.
Due to their humble status in the past, the nobles and the royal family borrowed plenty of their assets. Of course, it was borrowed forever, never returned. The merchants were unable to reclaim those assets. Furthermore, both the noble royals and the nobles were subjected to slander charges and seized the entire family from time to time.
The merchants in the reception room feared that the emperor was thinking of shedding himself. Issue an impenetrable order, forcing them to hand over their possessions.
Sun Wanping ignored the thoughts of this group.
"The Emperor wants you to invest money in Shenzhou City."
Zhao Lingxin thought that a large amount of the merchants' money would not be of any benefit.
Neither inviting them to invest more money in Shenzhou, causing economic growth.
Even now, Shenzhou is full of state-owned factories. However, just relying on government funding will not generate full growth. We, Will, have to rely on investment from the private sector as well.
Everyone heard that the emperor did not want to take the money. Just want them to invest in Shenzhou Everyone became relieved and prepared to listen to the next sentence.
"Everyone knows that the Ministry of Economy and Trade will grant privileges to allow industrial products to be sold. In addition to this, the Ministry of Economy and Trade will sell and transfer technology to produce these products to everyone," said Sun Wanping.
Sun Wanping's words made everyone in the room quickly calculate. What if he has modern product manufacturing technology, even if he has to pay a lot? They can find and pay for it.
Like a dog with a snappy nose, every merchant could sniff the smell of money very quickly. Knowing that whoever comes first has the right, he might rise to the number one wealthy family. Greed quickly took over everyone.
Just as everyone was about to vie for this part's benefit first, Sun Wanping interrupted it first.
"All of you do not have to say anything yet. Let me take you all to a certain place." Then Sun Wanping brought everyone outside of the four flower house. Outside, a horse carriage was prepared to accommodate all merchants.
"Invite everyone to follow me to a certain place first." Sun Wanping persuaded the merchant to go up to the chariot provided. All the merchants did not dare to refuse and boarded the chariot in memory.
Chui Weihong and Deng Laojin accidentally got into the same carriage, so they both had a chance to chat.
"Lord Chui Weihong, where do you think the Minister will take us?"
Deng Laojin asked curiously. He was afraid that the other party would sneak away and slaughter, leaving for a chance to seize the entire family.
"Lord Deng Laojin worriedly. I did not feel the other party's desire to kill us. Besides, the minister issued a sincere letter of invitation, and the other party would not harm us." Chui Weihong relied on his experience to anticipate the situation in advance. His intuition has always been accurate. So he was very confident in his thinking.
"I hope your words will come true," Deng Laojin spoke softly.
Not long after, in just 15 minutes, the carriage stopped. The merchant alighted from the carriage and was shocked by the foreground.
"Where is this place?" Someone exclaimed.
Their foreground image is of many industrial plants. Arranged in an orderly manner, creating a strange appearance to the audience This is an industrial estate that is kept secret.
Since Zhao Lingxin wanted to hide the production process, it is not necessary that Zhao Lingxin had many soldiers in hand. He is not afraid of anyone who takes these secrets. Zhao Lingxin firmly believed that even if he gave him blueprints. The other party could not build a factory like this.
"Invite everyone to come in," said Sun Wanping.
When the merchants enter the factory, the panic at first after getting in the carriage does not match. Because the image in front of them was like something that was not in this world, Automated production lines are in constant running, a sight they have never seen before.
Thousands of workers are working diligently. Clearly divided into order There is a process of adding raw materials, sorting, sorting products. It was a manufacturing process that they had never experienced before.
Not to mention the big merchants like Chui Weihong and Deng Laojin. Even the father of the Minister Sun Yuan Even though the outside pretends to keep the symptoms
However, the sweat that ran through his forehead indicated that he was shocked by what had happened. The merchants watched the production process with such interest that they could not take their eyes off.
"The first time I arrived here, it was just like you guys," Sun Wanping said. He remembered the first time he arrived very well, and it was a memory that was hard to forget.
This was something that could not be found in the human world; Sun Wanping was confident. Even being an Immortal Martial Artists could not do these things. Sun Wanping did not know what the emperor could do.
Sun Wanping led a group of merchants to tour the industrial factory thoroughly.
"Let me ask how much is the factory here producing products?" Deng Laojin noticed the unique characteristics of the factory.
"Here, each factory can produce tens of thousands of products a day," replied Sun Wanping with a smile.
"What! Tens of thousands of pieces a day," Deng Laojin screamed in shock.
The surrounding merchants were also shocked by this sentence. They did not know how many times they were shocked today, fearing that they would have had an immune response to heart disease after returning.
The production capacity of tens of thousands of pieces within one day is equivalent to three months' average production. Regardless of the method of calculating the profit, it is more than worth it. Anyone who has acquired these technologies will be able to become the number one merchant.
Sun Wanping knew that his plan had been fruitful. Today's events will undoubtedly persuade many merchants to invest in Shenzhou. This is his first performance as the Minister of Economy and Trade.
"Minister, please tell us the conditions. We will accept," said Chu Weihong in a hasty tone.
"Minister, what conditions do you have? Please tell me all of them?"
Deng Laojin also hurriedly said.
At this time, even if the conditions were high, the merchants would find them. In the face of such high-yielding production, no one can resist. They are ready to devote their family wealth to their best.
"The conditions are straightforward. First, you have to invest in building a factory and hiring workers in Shenzhou. Second, they have to operate and register a company under the supervision of the Ministry of Economy and Trade," explained Sun Wanping.
First, the merchants understand. No problem, they can invest their money. However, the second condition is a little strange about the company.
Sun Wanping saw everyone's doubts and explained. Everyone then understood the meaning of the company.
In fact, it is similar to the chambers of commerce established by the family. Nevertheless, that company will have different rules. Must be registered under the Ministry of Economic and Trade Details of corporate tax required to prepare specific forms of accounting as specified And must obey all imperial laws, including the Labor Act that the merchants hate.
"Minister, we have no problem, ready to meet your conditions." The Sun Clan, the Chui Clan, and the Deng Clan. Being a large family with a long line of hemp, there is no problem investing in it.
"Minister, can a group of small merchants like us be able to set up a company to accept manufacturing technology?" Their funds were unable to fight large families, and government conditions were strict and required a specific budget. Which they are not ready to invest at this time
"You don't have to worry about the emperor's intuition. In a few days, the Cabinet will set up a stock exchange to enable their companies to receive funding," Sun Wanping said.
The merchants were stunned again. Today, they feel their brain constricted, unable to keep up with the story. This time, another stock exchange will be established. When the minister said, the stock exchange could solve their problems. This group of merchants was willing to obey.
Three days later, the Cabinet passed a resolution establishing a stock exchange to be the capital market and raising funds from the people, developing domestic industries to enhance economic prosperity, and improving people's quality of life.
Prime Minister General Guo Ling Has issued a decree establishing the Shenzhou Empire Stock Exchange. Since then, it was the start of the world's largest financial market.
