I, the patron saint of the frontier of the Tang Dynasty, was forced to rebel

Chapter 49
Regardless of whether the war is won or lost, only the country and soldiers can benefit.

Among them, the greatest risk is undoubtedly ordinary people.

Of course, not everyone is pessimistic about the war, and many people are even excited.

Being able to become a soldier, after going through the baptism of war, will bring about earth-shaking changes to both oneself and the current situation.

In the Battle of Puzhou City, Qin Mu's army can be said to have won a big victory.

According to the post-war casualty statistics, there were less than 30 people!

However, Qin Mu was angry...
In a war, more than [-] civilians died, and they were pulled out as cannon fodder!

"It's been five days, and there's no news about this bastard?"

"Thousands of spies scattered outside, are they all idiots?"

"The souls of these thousands of people, how can we explain?"

Hearing the angry roar, Lin Quan, Yue Fei and others all bowed their heads.

Qin Mu has always put people first.

This time the matter is too important, although Puzhou City is occupied now, it will face the imperial army in the near future.

If it is said that during this period of time, there are public grievances among the people, the problem is very serious!
Zhuge Liang looked at several people and suddenly raised his head.

"Your Majesty, now we must divert the attention of the people. There is a sudden influx of refugees from the five continents. If the control is not decentralized, there may be chaos!"

"What can you do?" Qin Mu frowned slightly. If it wasn't for this problem, why would everyone gather here.

"I'm afraid Master Lin will have to figure out a solution for this matter!" Zhuge Liang said, looking at Lin Quan.

"I……"

Lin Quan lowered his head and tried his best to wink at Zhuge Liang, as if to say 'you are not hurting me'!
Zhuge Liang pretended not to see it, "Master Lin, you have been in charge of people's livelihood and business, and you know the market situation best."

"But...there is no way to solve the livelihood of tens of thousands of people, they are poor and white."

Lin Quan shook his head immediately, not daring to agree to such a thing at all.

Now it's no longer a question of getting into a pit, it's about finding shit on your head!

"Master Lin, I believe you can solve this matter, but this matter still needs the help of the bank." Zhuge Liang said again surprisingly.

This "amazing" really shocked Wang Shanhe!

He panicked in an instant, and he didn't dare to interrupt in front of a group of big shots.

unspeakable trouble!

No need to think about it, it must be money.

But the bank's money belongs to the depositors, and it's not something you can use casually!
"Master Zhuge, you... I am not involved in official affairs."

"No, this matter cannot be done without you."

"I……"

"Enough, stop arguing!"

Qin Mu really couldn't listen to it anymore, and hated this kind of situation where officials push each other, but it is inevitable to have an advantage in the officialdom.

"Zhuge Liang, tell me what your plan is?"

"Your Majesty, the biggest problem at present is that the refugees have no income and can't get enough to eat. The help we give alone cannot completely solve it, and it will also increase our expenditure."

Zhuge Liang paused: "I'm thinking, since Puzhou City is empty now, doesn't the imperial court want to counterattack? That's right, let's continue preparing for the war."

"Oh?" His eyes narrowed slightly, as if he had guessed the result.

War will always be the biggest driving engine of national production capacity.

But the premise is that there is enough strength to start a war.

For now, he doesn't need to worry about these at all. The only thing he needs is to solve the people's livelihood, especially the employment problem.

At the same time, industrialization has begun to emerge, which will gradually require a lot of labor, and then drive consumption and develop new technologies and products.

All in all, one thing is needed, 'people'!
How to attract talents and solve the employment of workers is a science.

"Mr. Zhuge, are you planning to solve the employment and living ability of these people with the huge demand for war materials?"

"The Worthy King Mingjian!"

Zhuge Liang smiled lightly, he knew Qin Mu's abilities better than anyone else.

"Teaching a man how to fish is worse than giving him a fish, my lord. What we need most now is new market vitality. In addition, the war has undergone earth-shaking changes. In the future, the demand for logistics and funds will increase several times. "

Qin Mu nodded: "That's right. This is a solution. The problem is that the production brought by 10,000+ people may cause serious excess capacity. What if consumption can't keep up?"

"In addition, the military does not have that much money to support huge military expenditures."

These words caused everyone to fall into a strange silence.

Especially Wang Shanhe who was standing on the side, although he held an official position, he was the person with the least rights in this circle.

At the same time, it is an indispensable person.

After all, money is still needed!

Pfft!
Without further ado, Wang Shanhe knelt down on the ground: "King Xian, I really can't get any more money out. I have emptied my savings last time, and I haven't seen any return on the investment I have made."

"You...you get up first, this time, I can fill your coffers even more, and I don't need you to pay a penny."

"what?"

Wang Shanhe, who was kneeling on the ground, was suddenly taken aback.

"Get up and talk."

"Your Majesty... are you telling lies?" No matter what, Wang Shanhe couldn't believe that he could make his bank richer without paying a penny.

Could it be that King Xian still has private inventory?

That's not right, the virtuous king has always been upright and honest, and his expenses are even lower than that of a small general.

Where did the silver come from?

Qin Mu was very helpless. After all, this group of people did not have the knowledge he had for centuries.

"I've prepared a document, take a look."

"This……"

Respectfully received the information with both hands.

Wang Shanhe was skeptical, but his eyes widened the more he looked at it.

It's completely unbelievable!

Zhuge Liang beside him smiled confidently. He discussed this matter with Qin Mu last night.

The discussion at this gathering is just to see everyone's attitude.

"War Bonds!"

Wang Shanhe raised his head, his mouth was trembling, "This... I'm afraid I will be scolded by people, making people rich!"

"I didn't make it clear what to make people's wealth. Buying bonds will appreciate in value. Maybe if you buy a tael of silver today, it will become five taels of silver after a while?"

For this method, Qin Mu is very thoughtful.

Strength and financial resources are all here, so reputation is naturally gone.

So why do people not believe it?

The discussion continued into the afternoon.

After the meeting adjourned, Wang Shanhe immediately called all the branch managers together to discuss the issuance of war bonds.

Moreover, there was a gossip that night, saying that the virtuous king issued a bond that would increase in price the day after the purchase. When the war is over, it can be exchanged several times.

There were even rumors that the virtuous king wanted to raise money for the sake of the people because the palace was empty.

In short, all kinds of weird news came out.

The instigator behind this, of course, is the person arranged by Wang Shanhe and Lin Quan!
Common people are always blind, and are easily led into rhythm.

This is what the bank wants, especially those businessmen who make a lot of money in this land of five continents.

If it is because the virtuous king lacks money, the war will be lost.

Can they agree?
