Zhang Yu went down the river and arrived in Wujun two days later.
When he got to the dock, Zhang Yu didn't get off the boat immediately. Instead, he stood high and looked at everything below.
The dock is bigger and busier.
The docks here not only carry the ships from the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, but also ships from the north and south.
Nowadays, there are many ships coming from the sea, not only in the northeast, but also in the south, and in the southeast and Taiwan.
The ships here are bigger and the docks are busier.
Zhang Yu looked at him for a long time. He didn't go down until all the troops got off the ship.
The busy wharf didn't stop because of Zhang Yu's arrival. There was a distance between the military and the civilian. When the military wharf was opened, the people around would not get close to it.
Zhang Yu and they got off the ship smoothly, and then they went to Wujun.
Zhang Zhao, who had been informed for a long time, came in a hurry.
Of course, the most important thing for Zhang Zhaolai is not to welcome Zhang Yu.
"Zibu, I gave you a sum of money last year, and I gave you 100 million not long ago. How did you get to the dock?" When Zhang Yu saw Zhang Zhao, he remembered that Zhang Zhao often chased him for money.
"My Lord, if you have a good conscience, there was a lot of money to sell weapons and equipment to Yuan Shu and sun CE last year. But last year, there was a war. There was a big war. How much was the military expenditure? Do you want me to calculate it for you?" Zhang Zhao said.
"Besides, you gave me a lot of money from Cai Mao not long ago, but do you know how much you owe?"
"The money borrowed from the common people and the aristocratic family is due. I borrowed a lot of money from the bank to repay it. I don't want to chase you for money. Who should I go to?"
Zhang Zhao is excited when he talks about money.
In fact, Jiangdong is not so short of money.
Zhang Yu owes a lot of money, but just after the autumn harvest, Zhang Zhao collected a lot of taxes, but there were a lot of accounts before.
Zhang Zhao collected taxes and knew that Zhang Yu had money, so he paid off all the debts.
At the same time, he also borrowed a sum of money from the bank, but the amount was not very large, just more than 10 million.
It's not a big problem for Jiangdong now. Even without the money, Zhang Zhao has a way to spend it.
In addition to taxes, Jiangdong also has many workshops run by Zhang Yu, which are also very profitable and can contribute a large amount of money every month.
The overseas part has made more and more contributions.
However, although he was rich, Zhang Zhao was used to living in poverty. When he heard that Zhang Yu came back with a lot of money, he came to the dock to stop him and get all the money.
Zhang Yu naturally understood Zhang Zhao's idea.
"OK, let's arrange a few guests to have a rest first." Zhang Yu points to Cao ang and others nearby.
Cao ang and his friends were shocked. First, they were shocked by the busy wharf. Second, Zhang Yu's men were so casual to him, as if two friends were joking.
Zhang Yu wants to discuss with Zhang Zhao about the use of debts. This is absolutely confidential. Even Jiangdong has only a few people who can know.
Someone arranged for Cao ang and Zhang Yu to go back with Zhang Zhao.
When he arrived at the prefecture, Zhang Zhao asked, "Lord, I want at least half of the money."
Such a large sum of money, Zhang Zhao naturally knew that he could not "swallow it alone".
Zhang Yu shook his head and said, "I'll give you one third, and I have plans."
Zhang Zhao didn't fight. He was very happy to get one third. After all, Jiangdong is very rich now, because a lot of gold, silver, copper and iron from Southeast China are settled here.
"Now, if we can spare our hands, Youzhou must also make great progress. One third of the money will go to Youzhou, and the other one will go to the bank, so as to further expand the business of the bank. However, two thirds of the money will go to Youzhou."
Now, Zhang Yu focuses on Youzhou.
Zhang Zhao nodded and said: "Lord, now you are the king or the state pastor of the two states. Where should we put this place? If we don't decide, it's not easy to do."
"Set the capital"
This problem has not been solved by Zhang Yu. Zhang Yu in the north is determined to be in Yanjing, which is also the capital of later generations.
But the South needs one, too.
"Is it the magic capital of later generations or Nanjing?"
Zhang Yu is entangled and doesn't know where to fix it.
"What do you suggest, Zibu?"
"My Lord, it doesn't matter where the governor of the state is. The key is where the royal residence is. In the future, the royal residence will be the place where the government decrees come from." Zhang Zhao said.
Zhang Yu sat down.
The capital is naturally important.
In ancient times, there was a saying that the emperor guarded the border, which means that the emperor guarded the border, which is the reason why later generations will set the capital in Yanjing.
At that time, Yanjing, the capital, was set up to resist the invasion of the north.
"The royal residence is located in Kuaiji County, while the governor of Yangzhou is located in Jiangling."
After careful consideration, Zhang Yu made a decision.
The royal residence is located in Kuaiji County, which is later Hangzhou. Zhang Yu's purpose is to develop the south.
Just like the emperor guarding the border, setting the palace in the South will naturally lead to a large population in the south, which will be more conducive to the development of the south.
Of course, the governing place of Youzhou is Yanjing. Originally Jixian was dozens of miles away from Yanjing, where Zhang Yu was preparing to build a new city.
Zhang Zhao didn't retort. The State Administration is only temporary. It's still too early to talk about the capital.
However, in Zhang Yu's mind, the capital has been decided, and Yanjing will not be built in the future.
In the future, Zhang Yu will never set his capital in Chang'an or Luoyang. Zhang Yu has already set his eyes overseas. How can he set his capital in such an inland place, especially in today's underdeveloped transportation.
"If we divide part of the money to build a city, we must build it into a majestic city. The military affairs of the city where the palace is located may not be the focus, but the scale must be large. In the future, we may have to welcome overseas visitors."
After Zhang Yu and Zhang Zhao decided to build two new cities, one is Yanjing, and the other is Kuaiji county where the royal residence is located, to build a big city in Hangzhou.
Although the investment of the two cities is huge, there is no one-time investment, and there is still time.
In a simple way, Zhang Yu divided up more than 500 million yuan of wealth first, and then subdivided it.
"My Lord, the bank you built is very useful. If you didn't borrow more than 10 million yuan from the bank first, many things will be delayed until you bring money back." Zhang Zhao said with emotion.
I haven't used it before. I don't know if the bank is easy to use. I know it's easy to use it after I use it.
At the same time, the private banking business also became popular.
Many people do business with each other, especially between the north and the south. They often don't need to bring money. They just need to bring the bills issued by the bank.
Running fast for a year, no one has ever been able to fake it.
Because on the paper, Zhang Yu is under control, and no one can imitate the paper produced by this special manufacturing process.
