The ninth son of the emperor was demoted at the beginning. I have a famous Chinese general.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Zhuge Liang responded.

"Your Majesty, how many shares will the Chamber of Commerce and the Bank take?"

Zhuge Liang asked again.

"Sixty percent will be divided, and the court will only keep forty percent."

"This also applies to investments in other industries. The imperial court only retains 40% of the shares."

Ning Quan said with his eyes slightly narrowed.

"I accept your order!"

After hearing Ning Quan's words, Zhuge Liang bowed and said.

"Another thing is that we are increasingly short of scientific and technological talents."

"I intend to establish a school dedicated to cultivating talents in science and technology. What do you think, my dear ministers?"

Ning Quan said again.

"Your Majesty is wise. I agree."

"I agree!"

Ning Quan's proposal immediately received support from everyone present.

They also know the importance of technology.

"Okay, since everyone agrees, then it's settled. You, the military advisor, will be in charge of this matter."

"Don't we have a large encyclopedia? Now that it's all open to the public, if there's no teacher, they can study on their own. There will always be talented people emerging."

Ning Quan ordered.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Hearing Ning Quan's words, Liu Bowen said respectfully.

"Okay, that's all for today."

"My dear ministers, please withdraw from the court. Military Advisor Jia will stay."

Ning Quan said lightly.

"Your Majesty, I respectfully bid you farewell."

After hearing Ning Quan's words, everyone retreated.

After a while, Ning Quan and Jia Xu were the only ones left in the hall.

"You need to keep an eye on the issue of returning farmland. If necessary, you can kill a chicken to scare the monkeys. It's okay to kill more."

Ning Quan said with a cold look in his eyes.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, I understand."

Jia Xu said softly.

"Well, I trust you to do the job."

"There's another matter, which is the stability of the newly occupied territories. I heard that there are rebellions happening everywhere right now."

"As for the rebellion, in addition to suppressing it with force, your intelligence agencies should also be involved."

Ning Quan said slowly.

"I understand. I know what to do!"

Jia Xu said respectfully.

"Well, please step back. If you have any news, please report it to me immediately."

Ning Quan waved his hand, signaling Jia Xu to leave.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

After Jia Xu finished speaking, he turned and left the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

"Hmph~ I hope no one is looking for death."

After Jia Xu left, Ning Quan muttered to himself.

..........

The next day,

Zhuge Liang and others came to the court early and began to discuss the issue of shareholding.

Officials from various prefectures and counties also received orders to prepare to take over the land.

Some states and counties even immediately organized personnel to check the fields of the gentry and landlords to ensure the accuracy of the land handed over.

As for the handover of land, the major families have already reached an agreement with Your Majesty.

Then, without any hesitation, he handed over the land deeds to the prefecture and county very readily. It had to be handed over sooner or later, as it was not the harvest season.

However, the small gentry and landlords in various places were not so happy, and some were even extremely resistant.

After all, this is the foundation of their survival. How can they be willing to give up half of it?

So some people would rather die than hand over the land deeds.

But it's all useless. If you want to die, then I'll grant your wish.

All prefectures and counties immediately dispatched troops to take action against these stubborn gentry and landlords, forcibly seized their land, and imprisoned them all.

What's worse is that their homes are confiscated and their families are exterminated.

For a time, the entire Daqian was in turmoil.

However, Ning Quan ignored it completely. As long as the aristocratic families were not in chaos, some local gentry and landlords could not cause any trouble.

However, under Zhuge Liang's advice, Ning Quan made some concessions and expanded the scope of shareholding to include local gentry and landlords, allowing them to invest.

When the decree was issued, although the gentry and landlords in various places were still dissatisfied, it was better than before.

So, the situation stabilized quickly.

When people from all over the country suddenly learned the news, they were completely excited. They could finally have their own land.

In the past, their goal for several lifetimes was to own a few acres of their own land.

Who would have thought that it would come true in the blink of an eye.

The court allocated land to them.

This is simply incredible, like a dream, and it is hard to believe.

But this is the fact. Thanks to the efforts of officials from all over the country, all the people were allocated land in just half a month.

Assuming three mu per person, a family of five or six would have about ten to twenty mu.

The fields were enough to feed the family and even have some left over.

For a time, the people were extremely excited and expressed their gratitude to the court and His Majesty.

At the same time, after half a month of hard work, the details of the chamber of commerce and investment were completed and officially announced.

When the major families heard the news, they gathered in the capital and prepared to invest.

Two days later, the first Daqian investment promotion conference was officially held.

Excluding five chambers of commerce and one bank, there are a total of thirty-five other investment projects.

It includes three ports, five roads, eighteen coal and iron mines, three silk spinning mills, two salt fields, two ceramic factories, and a cement plant.

Three tea factories, three shipping companies, a copper mine, a silver mine, two metallurgical equipment factories, etc.

In short, the scope of its coverage is astonishing.

After five days of fierce bidding, all the projects were finally sold out.

A total of more than 40 million taels of silver were raised.

This does not include the 20 million taels of capital invested by the Chamber of Commerce and the bank.

Ning Quan also invested all his private money into the company and became the largest single shareholder.

After the contract is signed, it is time for the specific operation stage.

The first is the issue of management and control.

Ning Quan must of course have absolute control over the five newly established merchants and banks. All persons in charge are appointed by the court, and the specific operations are also decided by the court.

As for other projects, they are managed by various investment families, but the court will appoint personnel to supervise them.

After all, the aristocratic families have invested, and they are also good at management.

The aristocratic families were quite satisfied with this arrangement.

Releasing control means that His Majesty is more confident in them, which is the most important thing for the aristocratic families.

After ten days of busy work, the five major chambers of commerce and Daqian Bank were established first.

Ning Quan attended the opening ceremony in person.

Half a month later, other projects also started, and construction sites sprang up one after another in full swing.

At the same time, Ning Quan ushered in the three-month lottery.

This month there are two draws, both items and talents.

When the turntable appears, the nine items this time are:

Before he finished speaking, a turntable appeared in front of Ning Quan.

Off-road motorcycles x30;

Assault boats x30;

Small photovoltaic power plant x3

Diesel ton x1;

Senior Engineer x1000;

Individual rocket launcher x40;
