The support of the two families is very strong.
This is silver, not copper.
Both of them go back to work for Zhang Yu. They will not work in vain.
That MI Zhu didn't help Zhang Yu, then Zhang Yu went to Xuzhou Mi's house to live for a few days.
Although I only stayed for a few days, the benefits are very great. It's an invisible reward.
Two people go back, two people have a lot of relations in the capital, the news is very easy to spread.
At the same time, Zhang Yu's court immediately sent letters to the officials along the way.
In particular, a specially assigned person immediately took more than ten fast horses south.
Jiangdong and Xuzhou are important places to send news to.
Now Zhang Yu's "corvee" is very heavy.
All prisoners, men and women, as long as they can work, are not locked up in prison and go directly to the construction site.
A large number of roads need to be built, and some cities need to be built. Now it takes hundreds of thousands of people to open the Grand Canal.
It can be said that there are nearly 10 million people working on construction sites in China.
Even if a person pays one silver coin a month, that's 10 million.
With the consumption of grain and materials, if we don't have hundreds of millions of silver dollars in a month, we can't get it out at all.
Zhang Yu's great wealth, which he seized from the great princes, has been almost used.
Now we have to sell some land to maintain this huge consumption.
For Ying Empire, Zhang Yu can't get the extra budget of 30 million yuan now, so he has to rely on the strength of the people.
When the news spread, it mainly aroused the ideas of the major businessmen.
Zhang Yu directly issues bonds, but many people are willing to subscribe.
It's also an investment, and it can make the canal open as soon as possible.
If it really takes ten years, they can't wait.
With additional funds, the canal can be opened at least five years in advance.
Now these businessmen also understand that Zhang Yu has no money.
The plate is too big. Although it has a lot of income, it also uses a lot.
Some businessmen began to mobilize.
"No, it's voluntary, but all of you here have to buy this bond, at least one thousand silver coins."
In Xuzhou, more than 30 businessmen were gathered, and one of them proposed.
The people didn't think there was anything wrong with it. It was good for them that the canal passed through them.
"My Huang family pledged 500 silver dollars and subscribed for 5000 silver dollars of bonds at the same time."
"My Li family invested a lot last month, subscribing 3000 silver coins and donating 500 stone grain at the same time."
"I, the Liu family, subscribe for 10000."
More than 30 businessmen made statements one after another, and there were more than 200000 silver coins.
They are just ordinary businessmen, not tycoons.
More than 30 people said that they all knew the root and the bottom of the matter, and they probably knew the situation of each family.
A round of pledge down, can gather more than 200000 is also very good.
News slowly spread out, in the capital, has been subscribed to more than one million.
There are many big businessmen in the capital, some of them are waiting and some of them have already done so.
This time, the amount is too large. It's silver, not copper. 30 million is not a small amount.
But there are more businessmen coming in.
In Xuzhou, a large number of businessmen also gathered. After MI Zhu knew the actions of the Zhen and Qiao families, he directly subscribed for one million yuan and then donated another 200000 yuan.
Businessmen in Xuzhou are also very active.
Then there are some shipyard related merchants who are also more active.
The shipyard is basically monopolized by Zhang Yu, but for the supporting industry, Zhang Yu did not do it.
For example, the processing of wood, there are some paint, glue and so on, Zhang Yu is through the purchase.
At the same time, Zhang Yu began to give most of the boats to private capital.
Zhang Yu specializes in researching and manufacturing large ships. These are big ships that can go out to sea.
For small boats, although they can make money, there is no progress in technology.
Zhang Yu let his craftsmen concentrate on the research and production of large ships, and constantly improve the craft.
In order to open the canal this time, Zhangyu needed a lot of ships to travel from north to south.
Inland rivers are full of small boats, which are in great demand. They will have great interests, so they are willing to promote the development of the canal.
This canal will damage large shipyards to a certain extent, and at the same time affect shipping to a certain extent.
But large ships are in Zhang Yu's hands, so it has little influence on the people.
Those who go by sea can also go by inland rivers with lower cost.
Businessmen in Jiangdong are even more excited. It's very seasonal to travel by sea. In winter, it takes a lot of trouble to transport goods to the north.
As a result, they prefer to transport the goods directly by inland river to the north.
In this way, many businessmen along the road began to subscribe.
Zhang Yu only asked for 30 million yuan, but he let the bank refuse all who came. At that time, he could count as many as he could.
If it's less than 30 million yuan, Zhang Yu will recruit fewer people. If it's more, he will recruit more people.
Anyway, originally, Zhang Yu had to borrow money or repair it by other means. This time, the businessmen are willing to contribute. There's no reason why Zhang Yu doesn't use it.
Many businessmen along the whole Beijing Hangzhou Grand Canal actively subscribed for it, fearing that Zhang Yu would not be able to raise so much money.
There are very few donations. After all, they are donated in vain.
However, a person's donation of one or two hundred silver coins adds up to quite a lot.
A lot of money is sent to the bank, and the bank doesn't need to transport the money to the capital, so it can directly allocate money to the construction site.
Zhang Yu is busy building the Grand Canal.
Recently, Shu Chuan and Ma Teng are very happy to receive a lot of negative news from Zhang Yu.
Shu Chuan and Pang Tong have been collecting Zhang Yu's information, and many spies have been sent from all over the country.
Does Zhang Yu want to abandon his martial arts? Give up the good situation?
There are many "rebellions" all over the country, and there are many troublemakers.
Zhang Yu's "extortion and extortion" has been revealed in many places. I don't know how much corvee he has collected.
According to Pang Tong's statistics alone, the number of corvee workers in all parts of the country is about 20 million.
It's a huge force that affects not many families.
"Zhang Yu is really a great success. When your people are angry, I'll send people to light fires everywhere. When the time comes, the flames of war will rise again and the Empire will collapse in an instant." Pang Tong said.
Pang Tong's data is actually very rich.
Spies from all sides have been unable to obtain valuable information for a long time, so they make false reports in exchange for credit.
Therefore, the information Pang Tong received was very false.
Pang Tong naturally took this situation into consideration, so after careful analysis, a piece of news may come from different channels.
These messages can be summed up to remove some that are too different, and some that are similar will be very credible.
Today, he has received news that there will be more than a dozen "rebellions" in a day. Although the scale is small, if it goes on for such a long time, it will certainly turn into greater danger.
