Chapter 326: Competing for profit with the people

All the old ministers almost got frightened and thought to themselves that you also know that the factory eunuchs have a bad reputation outside. It's really not easy. All the old ministers were dizzy and took a leave. When they arrived outside the palace, they looked at each other speechlessly. They could only sigh that they were old, old, and could not keep up.

The young man has made a move, and Western learning seems to be about to be prosperous. Although the old ministers are in a heavy mood, they have nothing to say. It is indeed a major event that benefits the country and the people.

If it were in the Shenzong Dynasty, this matter would not be possible. It would be a complete competition with the people for profit. Now the censors in the court are fighting against the five scumbags, so this matter will be done. Who would be blindly criticized by the emperor

Compete with the people for profit, and turn around and issue an edict to prison. The Nanzhen Fushi Department will peel off the skin and don’t want to go out alive. Macheng was left alone, and Xu Guangqi was also called into the palace. The old man was still blinded.

I know that I've been promoted.

At night, West Garden.

The emperor was really excited and had enough energy. He held the pen and put out notes from house to house to raise funds. Mr. Xu was blinded. Ma Cheng quickly explained to the side. Only then did the boss realize that he had been promoted and became the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue.

He was both amused and serious, and discussed with Ma Cheng what the Royal Piao number is. This old man is proficient in Western learning, so his understanding ability is naturally much better than that of ordinary people.

Ma Cheng repeatedly explained that this royal bill must not collect shares, and must be turned into a central bank.

I have also read several novels that established joint-stock banks in the Ming Dynasty, which harmed the country and the people. Can't see the financial crises in later generations? Didn't they all create them? Under the strict regulatory measures of the West in later generations, they were still mature

The three-rights and profit sharing system, countless pairs of eyes staring at the bankers, and even created countless financial tsunamis. In the Ming Dynasty, will the establishment of joint-stock banks collapse the national finance?

The banks of the Ming Dynasty were completely unsupervised, and they were even more deadly, so the royal ticket number could only be handled by the emperor himself. Officials, royal relatives dared to dig out the corners of the court, and the emperor's slaves dared to dig out the corners of the court, and the emperor's slaves dared to dig out the

Is the emperor's corner? If any illegal acts are passed into the emperor's ears, guess whether the emperor will cut off his head. Therefore, the court cannot do this, and the emperor can do it.

This is the central bank that is equivalent to later generations. It will gradually replace some functions of the Ministry of Revenue. One day it will be. Of course, the emperor also had a ticket in the Ming Dynasty, and Emperor Taizu made it, which is the infamous treasure banknote.

The emperor also had a big problem with filing numbers, because the emperor would issue paper money indiscriminately, so Emperor Taizu did this. It is unknown how much the total price of social commodities in the early Ming Dynasty and how many times the annual circulation turnover of the Daming Baobao Bank was. However, Daming Baobao Bank is not known.

The rapid depreciation of the banknotes proves that it has been issued too much from the reverse direction. This is also an indisputable fact that many people in the government and opposition have been shouting loudly since the late Hongwu period.

In October of the 23rd year of Hongwu, Zhao Mian, Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, reported: "I heard recently that some citizens of Liangzhe have paid 250 yuan in cash."

Baochao had depreciated, but Zhu Yuanzhang still insisted on the original official price when Baochao was first issued, and all the money was always 1,000. In the 27th year, "the people of Liangzhe valued money rather than money, and many of them were sold, so they had to pay the money.

Those who have always paid 160 yuan in cash and made a deposit. Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi and Jiangxi are all the same. As a result, prices are expensive, but the money is not effective.”

Taizu's abuse of Baochao was to compete with the objective economic laws by relying on the power in his hands. The sharp depreciation of Baochao was a punishment for those in power who ignored or did not understand the economic laws. It should be said that Zhu Yuanzhang, who was punished, had

What he restrained was that he heard the news of the sharp depreciation of Baochao. Although he scolded the "people's deceitfulness", the amount of Baochao, which had temporary fiscal expenditure, decreased sharply since the 27th year.

From the "Records of Hongwu", we can see that in the four years between the 27th and 30th, the total amount of temporary expenses was less than 600,000 ingots. However, during the Yongle period, Zhu Di was not inferior to Zhu Yuanzhang indiscriminately. He not only did he also have the same The system of rewarding meritorious officials and soldiers with Baochao was changed to the system of Beijing officials receiving all their salary in the late Hongwu period to the rice banknotes. This has been described earlier. In June of the seventh year of Yongle, the Beijing Baochao Tushou Department was added. Such as banknote making institutions, such as Nanjing, have increased the printing volume of Baochao exponentially to meet Zhu Di's fiscal expenditure needs. Of course, this can only cause a greater depreciation of Baochao.

If Emperor Tianqi also learned from his ancestors to send money indiscriminately, then the Royal Bank would have accumulated a lot of money in the short term, and it would also represent the bankruptcy of the reputation of the Emperor of Ming Dynasty. This is not the strong emperor when the founding of the Ming Dynasty. Do whatever you want. This is the stormy Tianqi Dynasty. You must not do this. Despite this, Ma Cheng still decided to set up this royal ticket.

The finances of the Ming Dynasty must be reformed, and internal and external troubles are bothered. It would be too late to not fight for anything.

Just bet on the emperor's temperament. Whether you want to be the emperor of the ages or the tyrant monarch is 50% sure, it is worth it. The three monarchs and ministers discussed it until late at night. In the end, the emperor thought about it and moved the queen. After coming out, I really couldn't find a suitable candidate, so let's go. It was obviously the scene when the queen was deeply loved by the new army that day. The queen was very inspired by the new army soldiers.

Queen, naturally, the credit is nothing. The queen is not considered to be a political interference.

Queen Zhang was so scared that she lost her temper: "I don't dare."

Ma Cheng quickly cheered her up: "Okay, OK."

The emperor was also urging him, and the queen agreed helplessly and left with a pretty face like a flower. The emperor became excited and felt sad in the capital. The royal relatives and nobles pinched their noses and accepted it, and raised money for the emperor. , please make up the principal for the queen. In half a month, I raised 200,000 taels of principal, which made the emperor's face turn green. He lost his temper in Xiyuan and wrote down all the small notebooks.

The nobles, the imperial party is the hardcore of the Emperor of Apocalypse. Although he does not give face or raise capital, he cannot take his anger.

Most people regard this royal money house as a tool for the young emperor to make money. The 200,000 taels of silver were treated as meat buns and beat dogs. If they go, they will never return. Ma Cheng was also embarrassed and underestimated the Ming Baochao. The reputation of the Ming Dynasty was so bad that it was a terrible street. When I heard that the emperor wanted to register a ticket, I was so scared that I scattered. Isn’t this Baochao? The emperor of the Ming Dynasty did it, and everyone had no food to eat. .

The emperor looked at each other speechlessly. Ma Cheng was really embarrassed. It was indeed not that easy to govern the country. It is impossible to govern such a big country, just by slapping your head and making a decision. This matter has to be slow. Come on, after thinking hard, I finally figured it out. This matter has to be on the Shanxi merchants. Let’s take advantage of the rich nobles, the powerful imperial party, and the relatives of the royal family cannot afford to offend them, but ordinary people always offend them. Get up.
