Chapter 277 Bank Reserves

These are the results of Chen Min’s many years of farming experience.

Of course, in this year, Chen Chang had not yet written "Chen Chang's Book of Agriculture". He was still just the Xianyun Yehe who lived in seclusion in Xishan, Zhenzhou, studying and farming at the same time.

Zhao Ning felt that in the agricultural era, China's internal governance technology definitely surpassed that of any other country.

In an era of limited productivity, all kinds of talents will meditate hard, observe, and summarize various laws to maximize productivity.

Zhao Ning added: "Sir, do you have any good suggestions for farming on the current farmland?"

Chen Min thought for a while and said: "One is to adapt to the weather. Farming must be done according to the time of the heaven and the earth, so that it can be born, stored, grown, nurtured, grown, and matured, and all will be done."

"The second step is to choose fields, high fields, lower fields, slope fields, Feng fields, lake fields, early fields, late fields, etc. are different. Mulberry can be planted on the bank of the slope pond, fish can be raised in the pond, and the water can be used to irrigate the fields, which makes agriculture, fishery and so on.

, the vices can develop at the same time.”

"The third one is fertilization. Even if the soil is not suitable for the soil, it depends on how you treat it. If you treat it properly, you can achieve success, and the soil will always be new and strong."

This means that fertilization must be appropriate. For example, the crop seedlings in Zhao Guan's family are growing really well, but the grains are incomplete, which is caused by a mistake in fertilization.

"Fourth is people's governance. The quality of crops depends on people. If farmers live close to the fields, it is easier to cultivate."

Chen Min has covered it from top to bottom, giving a very comprehensive and profound explanation.

Moreover, his thinking framework is very clear, unlike some officials who report a work and make a mess without knowing where the key points are. They say everything and end up saying nothing.

"Good! I am very pleased with what you said!"

Zhao Ning is overjoyed, talent is the primary productive force!

Such talents, in the agricultural era, were comparable to the marshals who commanded the armed forces.

Everyone nodded again and again, feeling that what this middle-aged man in ordinary clothes said was so convincing.

This is really the result of years of hard work in the fields and diligent thinking.

Zhao Ning said with emotion: "In recent years, gold thieves have gone south many times. The people's livelihood has been in ruins and the people are in trouble. I am very sad. I want to recruit talented people from all over the world to be used by the court to save the world and benefit the people."

"I have long heard that your husband has great talent, and now that I have seen him, I am sure you will not be deceived by me!"

"I would like to invite my husband to join the Academy of Science and Technology and also to teach at the College of Agriculture of the University of Tokyo. Is he willing?"

Chen Min suddenly felt at a loss. He said nervously: "The emperor has mercy on me. I am a poor farmer. I am lucky enough to see the holy face. I dare not be arrogant."

"Moreover, the common people have been hiding in the mountains all year round and do not know the etiquette of the court. If you are an official, you are afraid that you will lose the etiquette and live up to His Majesty's good intentions. It is really difficult to have both."

Zhao Ning said this because he knew that technical talents like him had social phobia and were reluctant to associate with bureaucrats who drank and bragged all day long.

Zhao Ning said: "Sir, you are very righteous. Nowadays, the life of the people is withering, the people are in trouble, and I have trouble sleeping and eating. Please help me, sir!"

"I have reserved an official position for you in the Gokuyuan. If you don't want to go to court, you can take leave at any time. No one can send you anywhere without my permission. You can go in and out of Tokyo freely. If you need anything, someone will arrange it at any time."

Zhao Ning looked at Chen Min sincerely.

"The emperor values ​​you so much, but the common people have nothing to repay, so I am willing to devote myself to it!"

Chen Min finally entered the Gokumon Academy and entered the University of Tokyo.

Chen Min's arrival has taken a big step forward, both in terms of new learning and agricultural technology.

In the afternoon, Zhao Ning said to Zhao Ding: "I have explained to Chen Min that he will write about his agricultural experience. His agricultural mentality is more suitable for places with many paddy fields, and part of it is also applicable to the north."

Zhao Ding said: "Li Guang sent a memorial a few days ago hoping that the imperial court will implement the New Deal in Huaixi. I think Chen Min can first publish a part of the manuscript to explain many paddy farming techniques and implement them in Huaixi."

"Yes, that's what I think, but Huaixi still lacks a chance."

"I am so stupid that I don't know what the officials are referring to?"

"If you want to implement new policies to farmers, you must have a complete supervisory and township officer to supervise the implementation so that everything can be done. How many township supervisors are currently sent to Huaixi?"

"There are ninety-five people, all of whom are from the new official school, and sixty people are promoted by the former Baozheng of Gyeonggi Road."

Zhao Ning said: "Then the harvest will be the focus of the assessment and promotion of town supervisors, and the Zhengshitang will issue and improve the "Evaluation Rules for Town Supervisors".

"The officials are right, let me handle this matter."

"The first edition of Chen Min's manuscript must be printed as soon as possible and distributed to officials in various places, especially the town supervisors, to teach farmers to adapt to local conditions. Every town supervisor must know Chen Min's manuscript by heart. This is particularly important."

"Officials, since most of the Huaixi supervisory officials have gone down, I think the Huaixi New Deal can be implemented in Shouchun Mansion first."

Zhao Ning started to think.

Now it is basically certain that the Song and Jin Dynasties have reached a truce period. Huaixi is already in chaos. If we wait for the turmoil to calm down before implementing the New Deal, chaos will arise again.

Moreover, the town supervisor has just arrived and is eager to achieve political results. Now is the best time to introduce new policies.

"Then the "Huaixi New Agricultural Policy Regulations" will be promulgated."

"yes!"

"By the way, how many copper coins were minted last year?"

"The number of copper coins minted in the three years of Jingkang has decreased due to the impact of the war. A total of two million coins were minted."

Zhao Ning asked again: "How much copper was produced in each place in the three years of Jingkang?"

"The reported weight is six million catties."

This amount can naturally support the number of copper coins produced every year in the Song Dynasty.

"Have you finished reading "The New Deal of the Song Dynasty Bank" written by me?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I have finished reading."

"what do you want to say?"

Zhao Ding said: "The passing of copper coins is not only related to smuggling and trade. Some large households like to hoard money. This is also an important reason for the money shortage in many places."

The value of copper coins is very high. The Song Dynasty minted millions of coins every year to ensure normal business practices.

However, many large households hid their copper coins privately. As the large households had more and more money, there were fewer and fewer coins circulating in the market.

Minting money is like a bottomless pit.

The threshold and process of casting copper coins are very complicated, especially the cost of mining copper mines is very high. If this continues, the most tiring person will be the court.

"If Your Majesty wants to implement banknote exchange, you will definitely need enough copper coins for reserve exchange. After all, the people no longer trust banknotes."

"How many copper coins should I reserve?"

"If it is only implemented in Gyeonggi Road, there must be at least 5 million guan in storage so that people can exchange the paid banknotes for copper coins at any time."

Zhao Ding continued: "If it is forbidden for people to exchange banknotes for copper coins, people in Gyeonggi Road will inevitably exchange banknotes for copper coins from other low-price monopoly stores. In this way, the currency notes will inevitably depreciate, and the imperial court allows the use of banknotes to pay taxes. Finally,

It is still the imperial court that suffers."

"Therefore, I agree with the implementation of handing over banknotes, but there must be enough copper coins for the people to exchange."

"Didn't 500 million Guan just be copied from Huaixi? It can be used for the first batch of banknote payment reserves." Zhao Ning said, "Actually, what I am most worried about is that the Jin Kingdom sells a large amount of goods to our country in Hebei, in order to use
