623 Far From Enough
Wang Buye’s advantage is that he knows the direction of history, and he is even more like a mirror for the future.
So under his command, the big man can avoid many detours.
If a country wants to prosper for a long time, the system is a very important thing.
Freedom is not to do whatever he wants, to release his nature.
Not allowing you to do certain things does not restrict your freedom and human rights.
Some people always think they are squirting, all kinds of squirting.
But when the waves fade and the prosperity comes to an end, you will find that what you call beauty is actually that.
The so-called freedoms are actually just what some people want you to see, and what you can't see is always darkness, blood, and cruelty hidden deep in the darkness.
The path Wang Bue arranged for the Han Dynasty was actually the path he had walked and the things he had experienced.
Some people say he is inefficient, some people say he is a master of Tai Chi, and some people say all kinds of things.
Wang Buye has a way to solve these problems, and the solution is really simple.
Anyway, I just can't figure out why this simple thing must be pushed by this and that, and that is pushed by this?
Could it be that I am irritated because I have seen too much?
"How much can the Ministry of Revenue take out at most this year?" Wang Bue asked directly at the cabinet meeting.
Zhang Cang silently wiped the sweat from his forehead. It has been so many years, but now he still starts to sweat when he hears withdrawing money.
"Your Majesty, except for this year's budget, it will be only seven or eight million yuan by the end of the year!" Zhang Cang once again wiped the sweat beads on his forehead.
Fortunately, the court has gradually become more rational in the past two years, and everyone is not rushing to ask for money from themselves.
The rules were finally established slowly, but he was afraid that the emperor would get angry and then he would be confused.
In the past, everyone made plans at the end of the year, reported the budget, and then reported on the actual situation to see how to approve and how many approves.
Sometimes if you give this too much or that too little, people will block your door and worry a lot all day long.
Now the Ministry of Revenue will directly submit the money that can be used as a budget to the Shangshu Province, and the Shangshu Province will save the specific use of this money.
The Ministry of Revenue no longer cares about whom it gives. Anyway, as long as the total number is matched in the end, the rest is the business of the Secretariat.
"Well, take out three million yuan and invest it in the Academy of Sciences!" Wang Buye made a decision directly.
"Your Majesty, you must not. This will affect the court's budget arrangements for the next year." Zhang Cang hurriedly wiped his forehead again.
If you use less, I will admit it, but this opening cost three million yuan.
This is not a small amount. I really think the money saved by the Ministry of Revenue this year is left with no place to use it, right?
First, this money is used as a backup to prevent emergencies.
Secondly, if nothing urgently needs money within a year, by the end of the year, half of the money will be added to the next year's planned budget.
The court's budget is increasing year by year, and the increase depends not only on the court's income, but also on how much reserves the Ministry of Revenue has.
The budget for the seventh year of Jianyuan was three million more than that for the sixth year of Jianyuan, of which 2 million were added to the Ministry of Revenue’s reserves.
The budget for the eighth year of Jianyuan is four million more than that for the seventh year of Jianyuan, of which three million are reserves from the Ministry of Revenue.
This is not a year-on-year increase, but a growth in the total budget of the previous year.
Even so, departments at all levels still have to tighten their belts to live, so as not to be careful and not even be able to pay their salary.
The source of the Ministry of Revenue reserves is also relatively simple, which comes from the Mint.
The Ministry of Revenue dared to take out half of it in one breath as the budget for the next year, because the Mint will continue to send new money.
It is equivalent to spending this year, but it is actually the money made last year.
"You are still the Minister of Revenue, and you can't even figure out this account!" Wang Bue couldn't help but contempt.
Zhang Cang was depressed. What does this matter have to do with me being the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue?
This is a matter of money. The income is only so much in a year. Although it is open source every year, the speed of open source will not fly directly.
He always needs a process, but this also requires the continuous investment of the court, right?
"The Han Dynasty has now passed the most difficult days before. Next, the court can no longer manage it with the previous ideas. It is time to change to a new idea!" Wang Buye shook his head slightly and said.
"New ideas?" Wang Buye's words aroused everyone's doubts.
Even Chen Ping, who was active in his mind, was a little confused: "Your Majesty, we are not developing slowly now. We take into account both agriculture and industry and commerce. The government offices at all levels have a good control in this regard. We have not abandoned agriculture because of industry and commerce. What we need to do now is to stabilize the situation and wait for a new round of demographic dividends to arrive. In almost six or seven years, all the developments of the court can start to accelerate. In 100 or 20 years, the Han Dynasty will inevitably enter a new stage."
"Not enough, far from enough!" Wang Buye continued to shake his head.
This is the advantage of dimensionality reduction strikes.
In the eyes of these famous contemporary officials, they have done well enough.
But in Wang Buye's opinion, there are still many things to improve.
It is obvious that the final effect can be multiplied several times within the same time, and although it seems to be a lot of investment, it is actually not much from a long-term perspective.
This is a matter of vision.
After seeing all the various things in later generations, after the country was stable and after basically solving the problem of food and clothing, Wang Buye began to feel dissatisfied with the current situation.
"My previous goal is to prevent the Han people from hunger. Now that I don't say anything, at least 90% of the people will not be hungry."
"My next goal is to make the people's quality of life higher!" Wang Buye slowly expressed his purpose.
“The quality of life is higher???”
Wang Buye's words instantly caused wider discussion, and everyone can understand this meaning.
But compared with the first goal, this goal is obviously multiplied by a hundred times the difficulty.
What is a higher quality of life?
To put it bluntly, it has something to do with your own financial strength. If you have money, you can buy what you want.
If you are talking more thoroughly, life will be more satisfactory.
You can afford what you want, every few days and every ounces, and you can eat meat.
Although it is all small matters, overall, this matter is not small at all.
The involvement is also not small at all.
Looking at everyone's confused look on their faces, Wang Bue smiled indifferently and said, "Will this stump you?"
