Vol 2 Chapter 1853: Debt infrastructure!


"Alright! He county magistrate! I have already sent out all the things you want to report to my husband!"
Lantian County, Yong'an Hou Mansion, Main Hall.
Han Yuxi, Li Jingmo, Mrs. Li, and Madam He were all in the hall, but Han Yuxi was sitting at the top table in the hall, and there was a big box in front of her. At this moment, Han Yuxi stood up and faced Ho who was sitting at the bottom. The county magistrate said.
This is exactly the decree this morning, when all officials in Lantian County were in a dilemma and had nothing to do. The county magistrate He personally visited the Hou Mansion and asked Han Yuxi to inform the county government’s current situation through the telegraph to those who were in the military camp. Li Zexuan.
After all, Han Yuxi is a woman and Taoist family. Although the Tang Dynasty folk customs are open, it is not open enough to allow men outside to see the family members alone. Therefore, after learning about He County Order, Han Yuxi personally moved the telegraph in her room to the main hall. At the same time, he ordered the maidservant to invite Li Jingmo and Madam Li to the main hall of the Hou Mansion. In name, it was to accompany him, but in fact it was to avoid suspicion!
"Mrs. Youlao! Xiaguan and all county officials are grateful!"
Madam He stood up and bowed his hand to Han Yuxi respectfully. But he didn't mean to leave here, because he still had to wait for Li Zexuan's reply here!
Han Yuxi pursed her lips and chuckled: "He County's order is serious! My husband is not in the county, so you have to work to manage Lantian County for my husband! Moreover, your husband is a little ill-conceived, so he should also equip Lantian County Office. The telegraph machine!"
He county magistrate heard this, and said in a straightforward manner: "Ahem! Madam laughed! Even if Lord Hou equips the county government with a telegraph, no one in the county government will use it!"
He is a literati, and he reads the Four Books and Five Classics. After Li Zexuan entered Lantian County, he worked under Li Zexuan. Although he received a lot of new ideas and knowledge, he still has a relatively high requirement for professional knowledge such as telegraphs. , Madam He still consciously couldn't play!
"He County Order is too modest!"
Han Yuxi smiled faintly, and then said to Li Jingmo and Mrs. Li Fushen: "Father, mother, there are still some things in the backyard, Yuxi will go busy first, and I can't help you to accompany the county magistrate here! What did the county magistrate report? There is a lot of involvement. If you want to come to your husband, you need to think about it for a while before you can reply. Then you can send someone to the backyard and call me!"
Han Yuxi's thinking is still relatively conservative, and she doesn't want to involve too much on matters in officialdom. Moreover, she felt embarrassed to stay here now, so she left with excuses.
Li Jingmo nodded and replied: "Good, good! Go ahead!"
He County Order gave away.

Xuanjia army camp, within the camp.
After receiving the telegram from Han Yuxi entrusted by He County Order, Li Zexuan was caught in a dilemma for a while. As the County Order said, if Lantian County Government responded to the imperial court’s award policy, Lantian County’s commercial tax revenue this year It is bound to be greatly discounted, and there is a high probability that more than half of the commercial tax will be lost. Lantian County is now in a period of rapid development. Many infrastructures in the city are not perfect, and a large amount of money is needed to invest in infrastructure. Commercial tax is a tax. If the big head "pulls the hips", it will directly affect the development progress of Lantian County!
But if Lantian County’s county government adheres to its own policies and does not implement tax incentives that are elevated to the top, all merchants in the county, especially those of Lantian County who participated in the fundraising meeting yesterday, will inevitably feel chilly because of this, which is not conducive to Lantian County. Business development!
"Money, money, money, in the final analysis is still a question of money..."
Li Zexuan frowned, pacing irritably in the camp. In the final analysis, this matter is still a matter of money. If Lantian County has a lot of money, there will be no such troubles at this moment. Tax incentives? What about discounts? What's the embarrassment? But the point is that the county government has no money now!
Before entering the military camp, Li Zexuan heard from the county magistrate He mentioned that it would take a large amount of money to expand the city and lay electrical wires in the city. The county government has already borrowed thousands of money from Yanhuang Bank and intends to wait for the tax to be collected later. , But now that Li Er’s imperial decree comes out, if Lantian County executes it according to the imperial decree, Lantian County’s county government may not be owed by Yanhuang Bank this year!
If Li Zexuan's previous financial situation were to be used, he would be able to help the Lantian county government to get out of the financial dilemma. Why did you say that it was before? Because after several ruins (building a medical school, building a large formation of Yunshan Mountain, building armor equipment for the Xuanjia Army, etc.), Li Zexuan does not have much liquidity! This may be unbelievable, but it is indeed true!
But having said that, even if Li Zexuan now has the ability and capital to help Lantian County's county government out of its financial dilemma, he will not directly use his personal money to make up for the county's financial deficit! Because as early as a few months ago, Li Zexuan made the Lantian county government financially independent, and the taxes collected by the county government do not have to be handed over to him. Similarly, the county government is carrying out infrastructure (roads and bridges, school building, medical If you need a lot of money, you can’t ask him for help!
"Money, money, money! That's right! Isn't this a problem of money? If you don't have money, you can find someone to build it!"
Suddenly, Li Zexuan's mind flashed, and he thought of a strategy that has the best of both worlds, that is...
"Didi~didi~dididi~!"
As soon as he thought of it, Li Zexuan immediately returned to the table and began to control the telegraph to send a telegram. After a short wait, someone at the end of the telegraph finally responded. Li Zexuan quickly sent his thoughts in the form of a password message:
"Ling, Lantian county government implements corresponding commercial and tax preferential policies in the city in full accordance with the will of the Holy Spirit. As for the county government’s fiscal gap this year, the county government will use the name and credit of the county government of Benhou and Lantian county as a guarantee to initiate a long-term policy to Yanhuang Bank. For loan application, the loan is 50,000 guan, and the loan period is two years. As for the loan interest rate, it can be discussed with the king of Shu separately!
These 50,000 coins are all used for infrastructure reconstruction, fortress expansion, and wire laying in Lantian County. The special funds are used for special purposes. Each expenditure must be recorded in detail. No one may embezzle it!
When the reconstruction of the city is completed and the business environment is greatly improved, Benhou believes that Lantian County's commerce will become more prosperous. By then, there will be a mere 50,000, which will definitely be paid off in less than two years! "
This last paragraph is mainly to dispel the worries of the county magistrate. Otherwise, with the cautious character of the county magistrate, he rashly asked him to borrow such a large sum of money from the Yanhuang Bank, he would definitely not dare to borrow it, because He is afraid that he won't be up!
As for the Yanhuang Bank, since the introduction of the preferential policy of deposits for interest a few months ago, most of the people, merchants, and gentry have deposited money that their homes do not use temporarily. Therefore, the Yanhuang Bank of Lantian County At present, I am fully capable of lending 50,000 guan bucks, but according to past practice, no one will borrow so much money at once for so long!
Li Zexuan is a pioneer!
That's right, Li Zexuan is planning to take the path of rapid development of most modern cities, that is, ZF is vigorously raising debts and doing infrastructure construction. On the one hand, it expands domestic demand (because large infrastructure requires support from many upstream and downstream industrial chains and many workers). On the one hand, it can improve the city's infrastructure, but it is mainly transportation facilities, which will drive the development of various industries in this city!
In modern society, in fact, the use of large-scale infrastructure construction to drive economic development and even get rid of the economic crisis has proved to be a development path with significant effects as early as the economic depression before World War II.
For a continental country, infrastructure construction is the foundation for the stability of an industrial society. Without modern roads, railways, power and communication systems, modern industries cannot operate.
Therefore, if Li Zexuan wants to develop engineering, develop industry, and finally realize industrialization in Datang, and use the credibility of the county (government) to vigorously borrow money for infrastructure construction, this road must be taken!
As for the reason for borrowing, the main reason is that in this era, local governments have no money. Even in the prosperous states and counties, most of the taxes collected by them are turned over to the court! If you wait for the local government to save enough money, then go to the infrastructure, it would be too slow!
When the infrastructure of a city is not saturated, or even the foundation is zero, borrowing for infrastructure is undoubtedly the fastest way to develop and prosper a city. Because it will form a virtuous circle, the better the infrastructure of a city. , Which means that the more convenient the people’s lives are, the more people it can attract to move in, and the more prosperous business is. Correspondingly, the city’s government will levy more and more taxes every year. Pay off the loan quickly, so you can start the next round of borrowing and the next round of infrastructure!
If you honestly wait until you have enough money to do infrastructure construction, it is very likely that when you first started, another city has already carried out several rounds of debt infrastructure construction, and the development gap between cities will become wider and wider!
Of course, if a city's infrastructure is almost saturated, and then use this crazy debt-raising model, it is likely to collapse completely!
In addition, in modern times, large-scale infrastructure construction in a city is often accompanied by a crazy rise in housing prices in this city. However, Li Zexuan does not intend to move this model to the Tang Dynasty. He does not want to develop the real estate industry in this era. In modern times, he And the young people of his generation have been deeply poisoned by high housing prices. He doesn't want to let the young people of this era suffer the same poison!
In addition, Li Zexuan, who paid close attention to the world's current affairs and news in his previous life, knows that technology is the primary productive force and the cornerstone of a country's prosperity. Without advanced technology and core technology, it will be oppressed and restrained by others!
Therefore, in this life, money and power are not the goals that Li Zexuan pursues. He is only in this life to bring modern scientific knowledge to this era and to the descendants of Yan and Huang in this era. He not only wants Datang to dominate the world by force, More importantly, it must lead the world for thousands of years in technology!
