[You: Liu Qing, I have only one request for checking the accounts in the past, which is not to disrupt the normal production and operation of Suzhou and Hangzhou. It is okay to check the accounts. You can ask Zhou Zhenwen to cooperate with you, but there is no need to check too carefully. For some things that are inconvenient to check, you can just check them roughly. That’s it! ! 】
[You: And... I’m letting you go this time. The most important thing is that I want you to learn about the management model of Suhang City, as well as the weird ways of making money in Suhang City. You should visit it together and see if there are any. If there are methods of making money that are suitable for other cities, please come back and report them to me. I will consider whether to let other cities follow suit...]
[Liu Qing: Yes, Your Majesty, I know. 】
[You: Well... As for the expenditure issue of Suhang City, if it involves Grandmaster Qin, ignore it and treat it as if you haven’t seen it. Asking this existence to guard Suhang City, Zhou Zhenwen must have paid a certain price. Every time Monthly offerings are definitely indispensable. These expenses are normal expenses, so don’t be too harsh! 】
[Liu Qing naturally understood what the emperor meant, nodded and said: Yes, Your Majesty. 】
[You: You are leading the team this time. Many of the ministers under your command are unwilling to deal with Zhou Zhenwen, and some of them have been favored by Zhou Zhenwen. He has been away from the court for many years, and many people are not willing to let him come back. They all hope that he will make mistakes regarding the accounts of Suzhou and Hangzhou... If you think there is a problem, you found it, don't make it public, collect it, return to Beijing and report it directly to me... Don't intensify conflicts in the city of Suzhou and Hangzhou and conflict with Zhou Zhenwen! 】
[Remember this... I once promised to give him absolute rights in the city of Suzhou and Hangzhou. If there is any problem, you don't need to solve it. If you come back together, I will handle it. Do you understand? 】
[Liu Qing: Yes, Your Majesty. 】
[You: Well, then go ahead and go back early! 】
[After Liu Qing saluted, he left the imperial study. 】
[After Liu Qing left, you thought about it and wrote a secret letter and asked the dragon guards to secretly send it to Suzhou and Hangzhou...]
"This way of handling it is mature enough!"
Empress Liang Zhao nodded slightly, quite satisfied with her handling.
Under the current circumstances, any contradictions are internal contradictions and small problems. Internal contradictions can be resolved internally and there is no need to involve the outside world.
Now what is internal conflict?
Is Zhou Zhenwen corrupt?
Is Zhou Zhenwen too powerful?
Is Suzhou-Hangzhou City too difficult to manage?
These are all internal contradictions, unless Zhou Zhenwen rebels, unless Zhou Zhenwen says that he will not pay taxes, unless Zhou Zhenwen says that Suzhou and Hangzhou will become independent...except for the above situations, everything is an internal contradiction.
As long as it is an internal conflict, it can be left alone now and the accounts can be settled later, but not now.
Now is a critical period for development, and development cannot be affected by internal conflicts.
Empress Liang Zhao thought so, and she believed that Zhou Zhenwen also thought so.
[Suhang City, City Lord’s Mansion, Study Room. 】
[After Zhou Zhenwen read the contents of the secret letter, he called Xiao Liu. 】
[Zhou Zhenwen: The imperial court is going to send people over to check the accounts, led by Liu Qing. This woman has been very popular in recent years. She has served in all six departments and is very familiar with the imperial court’s management model and accounts. His Majesty asked her to come and conduct a review. On the one hand, it is to calm people's hearts and give an explanation to the officials and some gossips. On the other hand, asking Liu Qing to come also expresses His Majesty's attitude. This time he comes to check the accounts, it is just a formality, and it is also notified in advance. this means......】
[Zhou Zhenwen: Please prepare the accounts and extract the problematic accounts that are difficult to count. I will personally bring them to Liu Qing and ask her to tally them and bring them to Your Majesty. 】
[Xiao Liu nodded: Yes, sir. 】
[Zhou Zhenwen thought for a while and said: Oh, by the way, since Liu Qing is here, I guess His Majesty is also curious about the operation mode of Suhang City. I will prepare some information and show it to Liu Qing and learn from it. Maybe in the future. ..... This model can be released in part. Forget about brothels and gambling houses, other banks, real estate, stock markets, Tesco... these can still be released. After all, the national treasury is not rich. ! ! 】
[Xiao Liu felt a little distressed and couldn't help but say: Sir, this is all your hard work! Just leave it to the court? 】
[Zhou Zhenwen: It doesn’t matter. Only when the market gets bigger can you make more money. There are many ways to play in the stock market. This is just the most elementary step. In the future, when the market gets bigger, companies across the country can use this model to raise funds and go public. To expand assets and worth, money is water. If it remains in a bank, water will die. You cannot make money from stagnant water. Only by making water come alive, releasing water while promoting consumption, can water circulate normally. With circulation, it is impossible for Dahuang not to make money...]
[Zhou Zhenwen: The same principle applies to other projects. We must first make people have more money in their pockets and improve their lives. Only then can more money be spared to enjoy life, promote consumption, and increase the activity of water. This is The right way, other ways, are the lowest level of plunder... I don't bother to do this kind of thing, it's too low level! ! 】
[Zhou Zhenwen: Low-level gameplay is not interesting. If you want to play, you must play big. If you want to make money, you must let everyone play and be willing to play... The stock market is such a meat grinder. , everyone can participate, the threshold is low, you can both lose money and make money, this is a place full of magic...]
[Zhou Zhenwen: It’s a pity that most people lose money, but as a platform, we will never lose money. This principle is the same as that of a gambling house. We draw points and we only charge fees during the transaction. As long as someone plays, We will always have money, no matter we win or lose, the final result is money! ! 】
[Zhou Zhenwen: This is the benefit of being a platform. Gambling houses, brothels, gourmet bars, various consumer venues... Why do we always make the most money? Because we are an official, we are a platform, and only the platform is the most profitable. We can take a share of all the turnover, and even buy and sell both sides. This is the true meaning of making money in Suzhou and Hangzhou! ! 】
[Zhou Zhenwen: And now... the running water moat of Suhang City has been made unbreakable by me. Unless Suhang City is destroyed, or the city owner is replaced, or the system is changed, otherwise money will come in endlessly like a vast ocean. ...]
[Xiao Liu showed admiration: Sir, your methods are truly unprecedented! ! You are so smart...]
[Zhou Zhenwen: It’s not that I’m smart, it’s just that I stand on the shoulders of giants... Go ahead and do as you’re told! ! 】
[Xiao Liu: Yes, sir. 】
