Daqin: Check in at the beginning of 18 and ask Zulong to abdicate

Ying Zigao quickly came back to his senses and said, "Ahh! That's right! Playing cards!"

After speaking, Ying Zigao started to play hero killing with the three of them.

I directly drew Ying Zheng!

Elect the lord!
……

The day passed quickly.

In the early morning of the next day, it was morning.

Minister of the Household Department stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the annual science and technology summit is coming again. The officials of the Ministry of Finance raised 100 million taels of silver to hold this science and technology summit."

"The location of this science and technology summit is yet to be discussed."

After hearing this, Ying Zigao thought for a while and said, "The last time it was held at the Institute of Technology, this time, why not choose the same location as the Institute of Technology?"

Hubu Shangshu quickly replied: "Returning to the emperor, I discussed with Bai Juli, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, and Mr. Bai believes that more people will definitely participate in this summit. Moreover, Mr. Bai also said that this time , There cannot be only one champion.”

"At the last summit, there were many talents capable of winning the championship, but since the champion can only choose one person, so..."

Speaking of this, Hubu Shangshu turned his head to look at Bai Curie.

Seeing this, Bai Juli quickly stood up, bowed his hands and said: "Your Majesty, the Minister of the Household Department is right. I feel that more people should be given better opportunities."

"After all, not everyone can have the luck of a humble minister."

After finishing speaking, Bai Juli slowly took out a drawing from his cuff, then handed it to the eunuch beside Ying Zigao, stepped back two steps and said: "This is the venue designed by Weichen, this venue, Weichen wishes Name it, Convention and Exhibition Center! The scale of the building is unprecedentedly large! Not only can it be used for technology summits held by the imperial court, but it can also be converted to civilian use. Ordinary merchants can also rent this venue to display their products."

Hearing this, Ying Zi understood in seconds!
After all, he is from the 21st century!
No one knows this kind of thing better than him!
However, what Ying Zigao didn't expect even more was, are the people of Great Qin Kingdom so creative?

Can you even think of a very modern name like the Convention and Exhibition Center?

This made Ying Zigao even suspicious for a while!This Bai Juli and Suzaku both came from time travel!
These two people are simply cheating on their lives!
Isn't it the heroine in the traditional heroine novel?

It made me, the emperor, very shameless!
After a long time, Ying Zigao nodded, took the design drawing handed over by the eunuch, and looked at it carefully.

really!This is a huge oval building!The scale of the building is indeed unprecedentedly powerful!

If this kind of thing is built, the scale is probably the largest single building in the entire Great Qin Kingdom, right?

It's just... With the current infrastructure technology, can this thing really be built?
But when Ying Zigao started to read the construction drawings behind, he immediately froze in place!
All of this was designed by Bai Curie himself!

Of course, Suzaku was also involved. These two women actually designed such a large-scale infrastructure in this era!

On the last page, Bai Curie even gave a budget.

It said that a building of this scale would require about... 2000 million taels of silver.

2000……

2000……

Now, there are a total of 2000 million in the treasury!

Is this to empty yourself out?

Ying Zi raised his head high, cleared his throat and said, "This...Master Bai, let's delay the construction of the exhibition center for a while."

Upon hearing this, Bai Juli quickly retorted: "Your Majesty! This matter cannot be delayed any longer! There is only less than half a year left before the next summit! We need to complete the construction of this building within half a year!"

"Besides... now... the construction of the exhibition center has begun in the new district in the south of Xianyang..."

"what?"

When Ying Zigao heard this, he quickly turned to look at the eunuch behind him.

The eunuch nodded and said: "Yes... the empress approved it. Didn't you say that the empress will be in charge of supervising the country when you are away?"

After hearing this, Ying Zi shook his head helplessly.

Really, how could this Dongfang Invincible make such a low-level mistake?

The treasury is empty!There is still a lot of civil engineering!Build a venue of this size!
The construction cost of this venue is even higher than Qin Shihuang's imperial mausoleum!

How could this make Ying Zigao not angry?

What should I do next?Where does the money come from?
Is there a tax increase?

Since Ying Zigao took office, there has never been a tax increase.

Even the tax rates of Great Qin's overseas colonies are much lower than the taxes required by their original regime.

If the tax is increased rashly, I am afraid that it will make the common people feel disgusted.

After thinking about it, Ying Zigao shook his head helplessly.

Make money!
Without money, it's really hard to move an inch!
At this time, Bai Juli suddenly said: "I think your Majesty must be worried about the funds. Just now, the Lord of the Household Department also said that only 100 million taels of silver is needed. Regarding the budget of the venue, I have already... Method."

Upon hearing this, Ying Zigao quickly asked, "Do you have a solution? What solution?"

Bai Curie nodded, and replied: "Weichen has set up a foundation in his own name, called the Inventors Foundation, and has attracted investment from many local businessmen."

"Among them, Xianfeng Commercial Bank invested 300 million taels of silver, Li's Bank invested 280 million taels of silver, Beicheng Heavy Industry and Commerce Gang invested 500 million taels of silver, and... some small shareholders invested ranging from a dozen to hundreds of thousands .”

"These people will all be shareholders of the convention and exhibition center in the future. Of course, the imperial court is naturally the largest shareholder of the convention and exhibition center. At present, Weichen will replace the chairman of the chamber of commerce."

After hearing this, Ying Zigao nodded slowly.

At present, in the Great Qin State, the chamber of commerce is equivalent to the board of directors, the business gang is equivalent to the group, and the commercial bank is equivalent to the company.

Ying Zi Gao sees that Bai Juli has such ability?
The imperial court was short of money for construction, so she simply set up a foundation and solicited investment by herself!

Simply talented!

Dragon and Phoenix among people!
Ying Zigao laughed loudly and said, "Hahahaha! Good! Good! I am very pleased to have a minister like you in the imperial court! Hahahaha!"

Of course, the reason why Bai Curie was able to gain the trust of so many rich people is also due to her position as Minister of the Ministry of Industry.

If there is no position bonus, it is estimated that Bai Curie would not be able to attract investment, otherwise, before entering the imperial court as an errand, he would not have to be so poor that he would not even have a place to live.

At this time, Minister of the Ministry of Finance bowed his hands again and said: "Your Majesty, the 100 million taels of funding is for holding the science and technology summit. As for the money for the construction of the exhibition center, Mr. Bai has already settled it. Your Majesty does not need to worry about it."
