Chapter 550
"Wang Taiwei, what do you mean?" the voice of Qian Gai, the minister of household affairs, sounded in the political hall.
Wang Zonglio sat there half-lying, drinking tea leisurely, as if he hadn't heard anything.
Qian Gai's eyes seemed to be burning with anger.
"Wang Taiwei, they were shipped from Huaixi as a reserve grain for the capital. You detained them. What on earth do you want to do?" Qian Gai almost pointed at Wang Zonglio's nose and scolded him for his dictatorship.
"If the price of food in the capital rises sharply in winter, can you bear the responsibility? Wang Zonglio, don't think that this matter will go away if you don't speak up!"
The people around him sat there silently, their eyes falling on Wang Zonglio, and they seemed to be asking him what he wanted to do.
Wang Zongliu said: "Shilang Qian, the "Regulations on the Management of Commercial Companies in the Song Dynasty" have been issued for some time, right?"
"What do you mean by this?"
Wang Zongliu said: "Where does the food transported from Huaixi come from?"
"Of course it's grain dispatched from Huaixi Tiju Changping Division. Is there a problem with this?"
"Of course there is."
"What's the problem? If you don't explain it clearly today, it won't be over!"
Wang Zonglio asked: "Where did this person transporting grain come from?"
"Huaixi Tiju is the person Chang Ping is looking for."
Wang Zongliu asked: "Did these people steal some of the food on the way?"
"If Wang Taiwei suspects embezzlement, he can report it and ask the Ministry of Revenue to send someone to investigate. If you don't trust the Ministry of Revenue, just ask the Audit Institute to investigate. You use your speculation to secretly seize the capital's grain reserves. If there are serious consequences, , who will be responsible?”
"Shilang Qian, I just asked you that the "Regulations for the Management of Commercial Companies in the Song Dynasty" have been promulgated for some time. According to these regulations, the regulations for merchants in Huaixi are also within the scope of these regulations. Are these people responsible for the grain belonging to the trading company? Who is the registrant of the trading company? How much profit did they make from this transportation of grain? How much business tax do they need to pay? Is it paid?"
Qian Gai was stunned for a moment by the question, and said: "Now the capital is stocking up on grain, and it's going to be winter soon. Why are you talking about this now?"
"The imperial court has promulgated new policies, how can it not be implemented strictly in accordance with the new policies?"
"There are still many private merchants who have not registered trading companies. You don't care about them, but you want to manage the transportation of the capital's grain reserves?"
Wang Zonglio laughed and said: "I will take care of them one by one!"
"you!"
"The Song and Jin Mining Market will be opened soon!" Wang Zonglio's face darkened, "Do you still plan to let some people of unknown origin transport goods to the Forging Market and trade with the Jin people?"
As soon as he said this, the scene became quiet.
"If someone transports iron without permission, who can bear this responsibility?" Wang Zongliu continued to ask.
"The "Da Song Commercial Company Management Regulations" have been promulgated for more than a year and they are not taken seriously. So today I will ask those self-righteous people to pay a small price. Is this reasonable?"
Wang Zongliu put down his tea cup, looking like a rogue.
Qian Gai said: "Mr. Zhao, this matter cannot be delayed. If the food is not available in the capital to promote the Changping Division, I'm afraid..."
"What Wang Taiwei said makes sense. His Majesty has repeatedly emphasized this year that the grain reserves of Changping Division should be separated and operated in the form of state-owned trading companies." Zhao Ding said, "Judging from the summary provided in the past, the grain reserves raised by various places Juchangpingsi’s food control is very chaotic.”
"On the 24th Road of the Song Dynasty, the grain reserves were hugely involved. How do you know if someone has embezzled them during transportation?"
Regarding Zhao Ding's question, everyone remained silent.
"On this issue, His Majesty mentioned it in "New Treatise on State-owned Commercial Companies and Government Control". Didn't you all read it?"
No one spoke.
"His Majesty's exact words are that the biggest drawback of the government's control of food is that it cannot be standardized and clarified, and the performance evaluation indicators cannot be made accountable, resulting in the ineffectiveness of control and wanton waste."
"Next, the Song Dynasty and Jin Dynasties, the Song Dynasty and Goryeo, the Song Dynasty and Japan, and the Song Dynasty and Nanyang are all set up."
"Commodity trade is becoming more and more numerous, government regulations are becoming more and more cumbersome, and there is no standardization, clarity, and accountability for performance indicators. How to manage the increasingly prosperous business?"
Qian Gai stopped talking.
Zhao Ding continued: "In my opinion, if Huaixi lifts Changping Division's Changpingcang, it should be changed to Huaixi Grain Storage Supervision, and it will be managed like the Wensi Academy, with goals set every year, budgets, independent revenue, and business operations.
It will be standardized and clarified as His Majesty said."
"In this way, when Huaixi transports grain to the capital, and to the grain storage supervisor on the Gyeonggi Road, it should not be in the form of giving, but in the form of selling. When 100,000 dan arrives, the revenue will be 70,000 gu. If you check the accounts at the end of the year, it will be clear at a glance. If there is any deduction along the way,
If the delivery does not reach 100,000 guan, the Gyeonggi Grain Reserve Supervision will never pay 70,000 guan. Won’t these problems be solved?”
Wang Zongliu murmured: "That's right, the flow of food from all over the country into Beijing is a mess now, and the flow of goods from all over the country into Beijing is even more chaotic."
Qian Gai said: "What Mr. Zhao said makes sense, but the current problem must be solved."
Cai Mao said: "It is not difficult to deal with the problem. Huaixi has promoted the Changping Division to take responsibility and replaced people. As for the grain, it will go to the Gyeonggi granary first, which not only alleviates the Gyeonggi grain problem, but also acts as a deterrent."
Wang Zongliu wanted to say something more, and Zhao Ding said: "This can only be the case. Power and responsibility belong to the person. The people below do not have the power to implement the rules. If there is a problem with the rules, the person with the power will bear the responsibility. This is what His Majesty often said about power and responsibility."
Together."
While everyone was discussing, Wang Huaiji hurried to the political hall.
"My dear Sirs, the official family has something to do and I have announced that you will be admitted to the Wende Hall, as well as all the ministers."
Zhao Ding said: "We will go there immediately."
Along the way, Wang Zongliu asked Wang Huaiji: "What happened?"
"You'll know when Taiwei Wang gets there."
Everyone in the East Mansion entered the Wende Hall and found that the main personnel of the West Mansion and the Military Council were also there, and they couldn't help but become curious.
Important officials from the administration and military were all present, so something big must have happened.
"I will see you, Your Majesty."
Zhao Ning got straight to the point and said: "Qian Yuqing, the young minister of Taifu Temple, has sent the latest news. The merchants sent by the Song Dynasty to Champa City have been detained."
As soon as Zhao Guanjia said this, the officials couldn't help but talk about it.
Now Jinghu Road is opening up wasteland, the national policy of converting rice to mulberry in the southeast has been decided, and Dongfu has already completed half of the detailed policy planning.
When will we start reforming, how many acres of land will we increase, how many cash crops will we produce, how will we guide private cooperation, and how much food production will be reduced.
These have all started to be planned.
