Datang: From exiled prince to eternal tyrant

Chapter 503 Changsun Wuji Has No Interest in Money
But this part benefits.

They'll probably have to figure it out themselves.

And do business.

No one can guarantee that they will not lose money.

If you want to lose money.

For the interests of the people, they really have to pay for it themselves.

It's okay if there are few people.

What if there are too many people?

Tens of thousands of deposits, tens of millions of silver.

It is impossible for ordinary rich people to pay such huge benefits.

and so.

After the excitement.

They also gradually calmed down.

They simply don't have any qualifications and courage to compete with Li Ke for this benefit.

Li Ke has the entire Shu Kingdom as his background and the entire Tang Dynasty as his backer.

Even if he loses money, he can pay for it himself.

They are different.

They simply do not have such capital.

And Li Ke's reputation is there.

It is impossible for them to have a better reputation than Li Ke.

In this situation.

Even if they give higher benefits.

In the case of ensuring that they can make money.

It will be easier for the public to trust Li Ke.

Instead of trusting them.

What if they donate money and run away?
The world is so big.

Where are they going?
and so.

Banking business.

It is impossible for them to gain benefits.

But this does not prevent them from cooperating with banks.

The Bank of Shu also launched loan services for businessmen like them.

You can lend them money.

of course.

The premise is that they have a good reputation.

Moreover, the Bank of Shu will use the assets already owned by businessmen like them.

Determine whether to give them a loan.

for this kind of thing.

Those businessmen naturally welcomed them with raised hands.

Most businessmen are short of money.

Only a very small number of businessmen have families to rely on.

They themselves have huge industries and assets.

The money they make every year is enough for them to do business.

and so.

They don't need the help of the Bank of Shu.

But the average businessman.

Many are self-made.

In other words, there are only one or two generations of foundation.

This situation is the most uncomfortable.

They want to expand their industry, but they don't have that much money.

and so.

The emergence of banks.

It can be said that it gives them an opportunity to expand their industry.

of course.

Borrowing is interest-bearing.

In this regard.

These businessmen also expressed understanding.

After all, it is impossible for the Bank of Shu to be a charity.

Even for charity.

Nor will the targets of charity be these businessmen.

The interest on loans is naturally higher than the interest they get on deposits.

Just this hand.

Many ordinary people can understand how the bank's income comes from.

Although there is not much difference in the profit ratio between borrowing and saving money.

But if you can't stand it, the bank can take out a lot of money.

And things like borrowing money.

It's not just for businessmen either.

For those ordinary people.

They also provide lending services.

However, ordinary people's borrowing is generally only for daily life.

If it is for casinos or other entertainment activities.

Banks do not provide loans.

In order to give back to the people of Shu Kingdom, the Bank of Shu Kingdom.

The interest on loans to the common people is also very low.

How else can we say it is a policy of benefiting the people?
Just the appearance of the Bank of Shu.

It has already proved Li Ke's business ability.

Not to mention the Shu Chamber of Commerce, which has gradually become a behemoth.

Although the Shu Kingdom Chamber of Commerce is not very famous nowadays.

Even on the street, there are not many shops of the Shu Kingdom Chamber of Commerce.

But in fact.

Most of the chambers of commerce in the Shu state belong to the Shu state chamber of commerce.

The Shu Chamber of Commerce has no apparent industry of its own.

But in fact the vast majority of industries.

All belong to the Shu Chamber of Commerce.

The Shu Kingdom Chamber of Commerce is like the royal family, it only exists behind the scenes.

But even so.

The Chamber of Commerce of the Kingdom of Shu is still making a lot of money.

Now it is on a report from the Ministry of Household Affairs.

The annual income of the Shu Chamber of Commerce is more than that of the state treasury.

To know.

Now the Chamber of Commerce of the Kingdom of Shu has only just been established for the third year.

three years.

A chamber of commerce can be developed into such a behemoth.

have to say.

Li Ke is indeed terrifying.

Although behind this.

There is also the support of the entire Shu Kingdom and the Tang Dynasty.

But it cannot be denied.

If this thing is really so easy to do.

Nor will I talk about Li Ke doing it.

Li Shimin had already done it himself.

After all, even the royal family.

I won’t feel like I have too much money.

Especially when Li Shimin had just ascended the throne.

He has deeply experienced the taste of lack of money.

At that time, the entire army was short of money.

Completely rely on the foundation left by the Sui Dynasty.

In addition, with the reputation of the Li family, he borrowed money from the five surnames Qiwang.

It can be said.

Li Shimin was really tightening his belt at that time.

But it's different now.

Although Li Ke said that he established the Chamber of Commerce of the Kingdom of Shu.

However, he did not use his identity as the Chamber of Commerce of the Kingdom of Shu to seek benefits for the Chamber of Commerce of the Kingdom of Shu.

The tax burden paid by the Shu Kingdom Chamber of Commerce is enough to support Datang's tax revenue for half a year.

and so.

Now Datang's treasury is getting more and more full.

And to support Li Ke's business.

Li Shimin took the initiative to deposit the money from the Datang treasury in the Bank of Shu.

It is worth mentioning that.

Although the Bank of Shu has no intention of directly opening the Bank of Shu to cover the entire Tang Dynasty.

But in Chang'an, there is a branch of the Bank of Shu.

And the honorary president of this branch is Changsun Wuji.

Naturally, it was impossible to be Changsun Wuji before.

but now.

It will naturally fall on Changsun Wuji's head.

Originally, the best candidate for the position of president was naturally Li Shimin.

But as the emperor, Li Shimin naturally couldn't lower himself to become a businessman.

So this matter can only fall on Changsun Wuji's head.

Changsun Wuji was still reluctant at first.

After all, he is also a person with status.

Uncle of the dynasty.

To be a businessman, does that make sense?

As a result, after seeing the interests of the Bank of Shu.

Changsun Wuji's eyes were almost red.

This is just the benefits they can get.

If all the money is directly greedy...

Changsun Wuji didn't dare to think too much.

After all, it doesn't matter if it's Li Ke or Li Shimin.

Neither was very hot.

Although Li Shimin will not join the Bank of Shu.

But after all, it is also a major customer of the Bank of Shu.

The big head of the Bank of Shu over Chang'an City comes from the treasury.

The Bank of Shu is regarded as the official bank of Datang.

Naturally, it is connected with the Ministry of Household Affairs.

Now the money in Datang's treasury has basically overflowed.

So it can only be stored in the Bank of Shu.

If Changsun Wuji really dares to have thoughts about this money.

Let alone Li Ke.

Even Li Shimin would not spare him.

This is the foundation of a country.

No matter how bold his eldest grandson Wuji was, he shouldn't have thought about these things.

and so.

Although Changsun Wuji was jealous.

But I can only watch.

As a result, Changsun Wuji has lost interest in money.
