Da Qin: Destroyed the Xiongnu at the beginning

"However, to build such a huge project, our Daqin treasury really cannot raise so much money!"

Ying Zheng thought about it in his mind and said with a wry smile.

Although Fusu said that he could use the prisoners captured by the Donghu people, but if he does so, he still has to take care of his food, right?

Moreover, the required materials and tools are also a huge sum of money. Astronomical figures.

Daqin, which had just experienced a severe snowstorm, really couldn't afford this expense.

Ying Zheng felt miserable.

Seeing that such a good idea for the Grand Canal was right in front of him, but he was suffering from the treasury shortage and could not start it. It was really sad. It's so uncomfortable.

Ying Zheng even looked at Fusu with a depressed and resentful look.

Knowing that Da Qin is so difficult now, don't tempt his father with such an idea.

Ying Zheng felt that he might have to do it today. can not fall asleep

"Father, are you worried about money and food?"

Fusu said with a smile.

The style of the First Emperor is getting more and more wrong.

It must be all the fault of Li Si and the others.

Especially Wang Jian, the old man who has been shamelessly promoting the tigress's granddaughter to him, is definitely the most responsible.

"Needless to say?"

Ying Zheng rolled his eyes at Fusu angrily.

Have you ever cheated your father like you?

"Father, just relax. Since my son dares to propose the idea of the Grand Canal, he is naturally confident!"

Fusu said with a smile.

"Don't forget, your prince's palace still has a huge pit of subsidies for agricultural tools and seeds, and there are also education expenses for various counties and counties to cover. I'm afraid you won't be able to raise this money, right?"

"Unless, you can create this grand canal without spending any money!"

Ying Zheng said angrily.

"My father guessed it right, and my son really has a way to build this grand canal without spending any money! Fusu said with a smile.

Ying Zheng was stunned.

Subconsciously, Ying Zheng wanted to see if his son had drunk too much.

Otherwise, how could he talk in his sleep?

Although Ying Zheng is not a professional craftsman, But it can also be seen on the map that the Grand Canal idea proposed by Fusu would link so many water systems, which would be thousands of miles long at least.

If it were more complicated, it could be tens of thousands of miles away.

You know, one was three hundred miles long back then. The Zheng Guo Canal in Yuli left Old Qin injured and had to rest and recuperate for a long time.

Although Da Qin is much stronger now than in the past, it just happened to be in the period of weakness after the snow disaster. No, even without this snow disaster, it would not have been possible. Such a huge project.

But now, Fusu is actually able to build the Grand Canal without spending any money. Isn't this drunk talk?

"Father, don’t forget, although the treasury has no money, we, the merchants of Great Qin, still have money! Fusu said with a smile.

Even in the later generations before Fusu traveled through the world, most of the money to build bridges and roads was not directly spent by the government, but bank loans.

Although there are no banks in Daqin today, there are still many private deposits.

Part 1 A cement workshop auction fetched more than 50 million yuan, which seems to be a lot. It is enough to earn the Qin treasury for several years.

But compared with all the private savings buried in the cellar, it is really less than half..

And this total wealth is still growing with the prosperity of Daqin's commerce and trade.

It is really not a big problem to come up with the capital to build a Grand Canal.

Although it is a thousand years ahead of schedule, there is a lack of many basic projects, resulting in Daqin's The Grand Canal of the Sui and Tang Dynasties was even more massive than the Sui and Tang Dynasty projects.

But there is also an advantage, that is, Da Qin can use Peacock People, and the cost is lower.

For foreigners, no matter how much they squeeze, there is no need to feel bad at all, let alone worry about causing internal conflicts Turmoil.

If it's not enough, just let the Donghu people arrest them again.

Anyway, these grassland barbarians have never treated prisoners as human beings.

And although the national treasury is temporarily short of money and food, spring plowing will begin soon, and potatoes and sweet potatoes can begin to be promoted on a large scale. , by the end of the year, it can basically be extended to most of the Tang Dynasty.

By then, part of the huge increase in taxes will be used to finance the construction of the Grand Canal, and there will be absolutely no pressure.

After all, the Grand Canal itself is not completed in one step, but It is connected piece by piece.

The final completion will take at least several years.

In fact, the manpower, money and food required for the first batch are not as much as imagined.

With Fusu's reputation, plus the completion of part of the Grand Canal The toll revenue will definitely attract the first funds to start construction.

Not to mention, those big businessmen who have already made a lot of money in cement workshops will definitely continue to build Fusu.

They are still eager for Daqin How many more major projects should be started so that more cement workshops can be opened?

As long as the first section of the Grand Canal is successfully built and the originally disconnected water systems are connected, direct and obvious benefits will immediately be produced.

No need to go through With more publicity, businessmen with a little discernment can see the huge profits contained in the Grand Canal and swarm in.

This is the so-called empty-handed business method.

By the time Fusu finished speaking, Ying Zheng was already a His face was filled with disbelief.

Two big words were written on his face:

Shocking!

How can you actually do this when building the Grand Canal?

Isn't it amazing?

But after thinking about it carefully, Ying Zheng felt that it was feasible. Sex, in fact, exists.

To put it bluntly, Fusu is now recognized as a business sage in Daqin. He has great appeal among merchants. It is a belief shared by almost all merchants in Daqin that you can make a fortune by following Fusu.

This is Things that others couldn't do, but it was very possible for Fusu.

Ying Zheng had to admire Fusu's foresight.

The lowly business that was despised by the entire Qin Dynasty actually broke out under Fusu's guidance. Such huge energy not only allowed Daqin to survive the once-in-a-century snowstorm, but it also immediately brought new hope to Daqin.

Once the Grand Canal is really completed, just collecting the tolls Fusu mentioned, After the remaining portion is distributed to the investing merchants, everyone in the Great Qin court will laugh to death.

Not to mention, the completion of the Grand Canal will inevitably lead to the development of the surrounding counties and counties, making countless people in Daqin rich, and causing local taxes to skyrocket.

The more Ying Zheng thought about it, the more he felt that Fu Su's plan had a high success rate. He was half drunk in an instant and couldn't help but stand up and study the map carefully again.

The more I look at it, the more I have the urge to marvel.

This plan is amazing!
