Chapter 342
A few days later, in the anticipation of all the people in Daqin, the Grand Canal Bonds finally began to be sold.
After hearing the news, countless people came to line up in front of each branch of the Daqin Royal Bank at dawn.
Like Xianyang City and other counties where the curfew has been lifted, there are people who directly bring their bedding and occupy their seats overnight.
It is really the common people these days who lack the means to manage money.
Now is the prosperous era of the Great Qin Dynasty. As long as the common people can bear hardships and work hard, whether they enter the imperial court engineering projects or work in the workshops, they can get a pretty good income.
Even if you continue to farm, thanks to the promotion of potatoes, sweet potatoes and super rice, plus the sharply lower agricultural tax and subsidies for various farm tools, you can still save a lot of money in a year.
This can be seen from the higher and higher deposit rates of ordinary people in the Daqin Royal Bank, that the value of the people in Daqin has really increased.
However, due to the promotion of money bills and the financial colonization of other countries, Ying Yu has not opened up deposit interest for a long time, which also makes the deposits of the people of Daqin unable to increase in value.
And now this bond is a reward to all the people in Daqin.
[-]% interest, even in later generations, has a very high attraction, let alone in Daqin.
After all, this was launched by the imperial court, with a real credit guarantee and [-]% of the stable income.
After the newspaper propaganda, all the people of Daqin have learned that this is a feedback from the court, His Royal Highness, to the people of Daqin, and they have long been looking forward to it.
The matter of picking up [-]% of the interest for nothing instantly moved everyone's heart.
Moreover, the subscription threshold is also very low. It only needs [-] yuan to start, which is just a laborer's salary for a month, and most families can afford it.
After repeated expansions in Xianyang City, all the streets are now blocked by people queuing up to buy bonds, leaving Meng Yi and others who followed Ying Yu out for a private visit in a microservice, dumbfounded.
"These people are too enthusiastic, right?"
"Originally, I was still worried about whether the [-] million yuan bond could be sold in a short period of time, but now it seems that it may not be enough!"
Looking at the 'long dragons', Meng Yi had a look of shock on his face.
"It seems that the interest rate set by His Highness is still too high. If the bond is issued next time, I think the interest rate will be half-full at most."
Chen Ping on the side also took a deep breath and said.
After experiencing the experience of being sent out to Tu'an County Sheriff, Chen Ping has become a lot calmer, and his accounts are more clear.
"It's the first time to issue a bond. There must be something impressive. Take [-]% of the interest as an advertising fee."
"And [-] million yuan seems like a lot, but now it's just my Daqin's tax for a month."
"As long as the common people pay attention to the inland counties and counties, attract more people to move to Liaodong, and build the Liaodong industrial base, this cost alone is nothing at all!"
Ying Yu said with a smile on his face.
"This should be what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince once said, the idea of governance that benefits the people after getting rich first!"
Xiao He also had a look of shock on his face, and said in admiration.
Since ancient times, most kings have given themselves the image of loving the people like their sons, but how many of them can truly love the people like their sons?
The reason why this bond has caused such a big commotion now fully shows how much benefit Ying Yu has given.
This kind of courage, replaced by other people, is absolutely impossible to achieve.
"Get rich first and then get rich later, that's okay!"
Ying Yu pondered for a moment.
The macro-control of later generations is actually to use the taxes of rich regions to support the development of backward regions, so as to maintain a relative balance.
It's just that in later generations, the power of capital has become a little too strong, and it is not so easy to control it.
In Daqin, although the energy of the merchants has increased, the right to speak in their hands is not important.
In other words, if Ying Yu can single-handedly elevate the status of Daqin merchants, he can also directly suppress the status of merchants again.
The commercial law, which is being perfected step by step, is the means of restraint on businessmen.
As long as he abides by the law and pays taxes honestly, no matter how much money he earns, Ying Yu will not interfere, and will even set him as an example, a model of common people's struggle.
But if they start to drift away after getting some money, and want to get their hands on something that shouldn't be done, Ying Yu will definitely let them understand who is the big and small king.
Jin Yiwei's spies, as well as the black ice table in Dunwei's hands, are not vegetarians.
And don't forget that the major shareholders behind all the industries in Daqin are actually Ying Yu, and they are all under Shen Wansan's control.
As a time traveler, Ying Yu was very aware of the nature of businessmen, so naturally he would not give this group of people too many opportunities.
On the other side, the head office of Daqin Royal Bank finally opened.
"The ones in front, be quick with your hands and feet, don't dawdle there!"
"The amount of [-] million yuan, what are you in a hurry for?"
"You are stupid, the [-] million yuan is for the whole of Daqin, what amount can each person have on average?
If you don't hurry up, you may not even be able to drink the soup in a while. "
"That's right, if His Highness hadn't set a maximum purchase limit of [-] yuan per person, those big businessmen alone would be able to wipe out these bonds!"
"Not to mention too much, look, there are no less than ten thousand people queuing at the gate of our bank alone. Don't hurry up in the front, and the queue in the back will not be able to make it until the gate is closed!"
"That's right. Thanks to the benevolent government of His Royal Highness, everyone has made a fortune in the past few years. It's not the tight days before."
"Isn't that right? Ever since Gong Ziyu became the crown prince, I have been responding to His Highness's call. Now I have moved into a new house, and my family's surplus money has increased dozens of times!"
"This is all the kindness His Royal Highness gave us."
"Yes, only His Highness is the sage who really cares about us and the people, and the rest of the sages are all bragging."
"No, the typical ones are those rotten scholars who study stupidly. While enjoying the cheap books brought by His Highness, they speak ill of His Highness over there. These people's consciences have really been eaten by dogs."
"What kind of Zhou rituals do they brag about every day, I think it's bullshit, so what kind of Zhou Dynasty, can I have Daqin?"
"The way I see it, the big week and everything are just excuses. They just want to restore the era when only the rich and powerful could afford to study, and they had the final say on everything."
"It must be so!"
"Thanks to His Royal Highness, for allowing me to wait for the boss, I also have the opportunity to receive a straight education, and see a different world from before!"
While waiting in line, the common people praised Ying Yu's benevolence.
People have steelyards in their hearts, and whoever really treats them well can naturally feel it.
Especially now that the people of Daqin have developed their wisdom, and they will not listen to those people's fooling around.
In this era, Ying Yu is the only sage who can make people believe in and follow him.
So it was Ying Yu who made them live a good life.
