Chapter 457 Pioneer

Once the three-pay policy is out, the tax burden of farmers in the world has reached five taxes and one, and even an astonishing three taxes and one. The chaos has emerged, and a pessimistic scene of the end of the world is approaching. Part of the three-payment paid is given to Yuan Chonghuan, and part of it is given to the money.

After Yang Sichang, the military expenditure of Lord Yang to recruit bandits was settled. In this case, levying three wages would be like drinking poison to quench thirst. If there is no improvement within one or two years, anyone will know that the situation is not good.

No longer thinking about these troubles, the three departments in Taiwan are also facing great difficulties, and the silver shortage is still there.

Silver waste, this is a big trouble that Macheng has no preparation. With the increasing amount of bulk expenses in the three departments of Taiwan and Kaiyuan, signs of silver waste appear. In the barren knowledge of Macheng,

I roughly understand that this is what is called deflation, and I also took an economic class.

Finally, I understood why gold and silver officially became circulating currencies recognized by the imperial court until the Jiajing period.

Because the silver production in the Ming Dynasty was too low, in the 43rd year of Jiajing, two years after the empire officially recognized silver as currency, the Ministry of Revenue made such a report: Taicang earned only two million taels of silver every year, less than half a year

One million taels have been spent, and the excessive tax cannot be collected. Shuntianfu Zhengshi tax is only 100,000 taels of silver per year, and the additional tax has reached 110,000 taels. Daxing and Wanping

In the two counties, no matter the rich or poor, there are many people who fled in the whole village.

Emperor Longqing had just ascended the throne and faced such an embarrassing situation: the Ming Empire was short of money, and there was no silver mine to mint money, and there was no one to admit it. People at that time lamented: What the people in the world lacked the most was not grains and brocade.

But the lack of silver is the people in the world who are worried about scarcity is not enough cloth, silk, grains, and silver is insufficient.

Now in Taiwan Province, Kaiyuan Prefecture is facing such serious problems: insufficient silver and a currency crisis has occurred.

As bulk silver was used to purchase arms and warships, the treasury silver in the governments of the two places had already shown signs of exhaustion, and even copper coins were seriously insufficient. There were signs of rice-free goods among the people. In the barren economics of Macheng

In knowledge, I also know that this is what later generations often call deflation. Taiwan’s three departments are not ignorant of deflation. The most intuitive feeling is that the bulk wool products produced in Kaiyuan appeared in Taiwan, Fujian and other places.

unsalable.

Three words emerged in Macheng's mind, the Great Depression, and the currency crisis.

Macheng truly felt the terrible consequences of the silver shortage, that is, the oversupply, and thus the terrible depression. When the scale of Kaiyuan handicraft base expands and the output increases, the product will be unsalable, and the product will be unsalable.

This triggered a great recession for production. Nan Juyi was also a civil servant and a capable minister who was proficient in economics. He and Ma Cheng took the officials of the Sansi to review historical materials all night, and their eyes turned red. The two were unable to go any further

If the affairs of the court are in charge of the affairs of the court, the silver shortage and unsalable sales will be enough to destroy the development momentum of Kaiyuan and Taiwan.

How terrible the consequences of Taiwan’s native products and Kaiyuan’s wool products cannot be sold.

Ma Cheng rubbed his sore forehead and smiled bitterly. The primitive accumulation of capital is indeed not an easy task. It is even more difficult to govern a country. It is so difficult to govern a province and a province. How difficult it is to govern a country. Capitalism

It's budding, Ma Cheng smiled bitterly. This is the beginning of capitalism. There are many problems and the brain hurts.

At night, Tamsui Hongmao City.

Ma Cheng rubbed his sore forehead and studied the historical materials sent by the three corpses in his hand, trying his best to understand the economic principles. What is silver? Silver is purchasing power. What should I do if there is a silver shortage and product sales are unsalable? Ma Cheng is a rough one.

The man simply gave the simplest and most direct solution, two countermeasures, two-pronged approaches, one should speed up the dumping of goods in the colony, and the other should be to grab the silver in the colony! The magnificent era of navigation, the new continent, the gold produced in the colony

The silver fattened up the European powers, and foreigners would not obediently hand over the silver. What should I do if the Ming Dynasty lacks silver? I can only rob it.

The Taiwan Prefecture finally embarked on the road of colonialism. This is a path that the Taiwan Prefecture will inevitably embark on after the handicraft industry is highly developed, commerce is highly developed, commodity sales are unsalable, and a currency crisis occurs, and will not be transferred by manpower. Since the opening of Macheng

After getting the magic box, the Taiwan government was destined to embark on this path of external expansion, without expansion, and commodity sales were unsalable and silver shortages were caused, so everyone could only hold them together and die.

But Ma Cheng vaguely remembers that most of the top ten silver producers in the world are in the Americas, Mexico, Central and South America are paradises that produce gold and silver. It is not strong enough. With the current ability of Taiwan Province, expedition to the Americas is just a joke, but it is not

Influenced Macheng's ambition, how can we not grab the Silver Paradise of the New World?

The New Continent of America, the legendary main source of gold and silver in the world, still has the chance to get involved in this life.

Ma Cheng's blood was boiling for a long time before he calmed down again and returned to the real problems, silver shortage and product sales. Since he was not strong enough, he was still unable to expedition to the new continent of America, he could only expand externally to solve the problem. Taiwan's external expansion roughly has three

One direction, North Korea and Japan are one direction, Southeast Asia is another direction, and another direction is the Indian subcontinent, the powerful Mughal Empire.

Ma Cheng searched for a while and finally found a soft persimmon. The Burmese King entrenched in Myanmar. After being repeatedly conquered by the Ming Dynasty, he survived the storm of the Dongshou Dynasty. He went to Myanmar to grab silver and dump it. Ma Cheng quickly made up his mind to conquer Myanmar.

, If you don’t launch a few battles to destroy the country, how can you say it is the primitive accumulation of capitalism?

The next day, I ordered Sansi to find the historical materials of Myanmar, and the information was surprisingly detailed.

There are now seven forces in Myanmar, six of which are chieftains enthroned by the Ming Dynasty. The most powerful Dongyu Dynasty is now entrenched in southern Myanmar. It has long been beaten by the Ming Dynasty during the Wanli period. It is really a soft persimmon. God will not give it to you, but instead

Being blamed, now is a god-given opportunity to attack Myanmar. This is a battle to destroy the country. The treasure of a Burmese dynasty should greatly alleviate the silver shortage.

Ma Cheng has already gained a lot of benefits in North Korea and knows that the war dividends brought by this war of destruction will make people crazy and addictive.

Nanjuyi was very hesitant. Myanmar, the country that Taizu appointed was not expropriated. However, Macheng was already anxious. Could it be given to the Spaniards if they didn't pinch this soft persimmon? Now, the Spaniards have a employed man in southern Myanmar.

The army, with about 700 people, and a small fleet anchored in the port of Myanmar, was making a fortune from the weak Dongyu Empire.

Nan Juyi was hesitant, but the generals under his command, Yan Siqi, Yang Tiansheng and others could not hold back and persuaded them.

Only then did Mr. Nan discover that his subordinates had turned into wild beasts out of cages during the battle to conquer Taiwan and could not control them. In May of the fourth year of Chongzhen, the Taiwan military troops had 15,000 troops.
