After accepting this Song Kangnian, we have to figure out what is going on with that aunt outside?
Is there anything difficult to do in Kaifeng?
Song Kangnian glanced outside and said in a low voice: "Mother, this is not a small matter."
No matter how old you are, you say it, and I listen.
"There is a copper mine outside Kaifeng that was abandoned a few years ago. It's not big!"
Lin Yutong narrowed his eyes slightly, "Someone started mining the old mine again?"
Yes! Song Kangnian took out a handful of copper coins from his pocket and threw them on the ground. They broke into pieces in an instant. He didn’t know how many copper coins he had, but after such a fall, none of them was intact.
Lin Yutong knew what Song Kangnian was going to say. What he was going to say was the dangers of privately minting copper coins.
Song Kangnian said: "Your Majesty, there are few cities in the world who do not mint money privately. The Ming Dynasty will not be able to recover from the proliferation of private money!"
Chen Fa was about to scold, but Lin Yutong waved his hand, "He's right!"
Lin Yutong asked Song Kangnian to sit down, and then said to Chen Kai: "Bring me the book I want to read at night."
Chen Kai went quickly and brought a book over. Lin Yutong pointed at Song Kangnian and said, "Give it to Mr. Song."
Song Kangnian took it and was stunned for a moment. This turned out to be the "Extensions of the University".
Lin Yutong smiled and said, "Sir, have you read it?"
Yes! Read it.
Lin Yutong nodded, "This book is placed next to the emperor's pillow. It is a good book. I also took this book with me when I left the palace. This is a book that must be read carefully."
The author of this book, Qiu Jun, was the first to propose the labor theory of value! This idea is amazing! Especially since this person has long since passed away and was considered a famous official in the early Ming Dynasty. The theory he proposed is more than a hundred years ago.
In the eyes of later generations, these economic propositions were all advanced, but it was a pity that they were not adopted.
Lin Yutong said: "Mr. Qiu Jun once made a proposal. He said that the right to mint currency belongs to the imperial court. The emperor agrees with this point."
Song Kangnian's hand holding the book was shaking a little. Among the emperors of the Ming Dynasty, there was finally an emperor who understood practical matters! He hurriedly said: "Of course, the right to mint coins must be returned to the court. First, coins are where profit and power lie. Will
It is unwise to let power and interests go unchecked, harming the interests of the people and causing disputes! Secondly, the court has a monopoly, and the rights are supreme. The court can allocate resources for disaster relief, reduce labor, and benefit orphans and widows. This method can benefit everyone. Thirdly,
, the price of things fluctuates, which is a harm to the people! The imperial court can control the price fluctuation by exercising its power..."
Lin Yutong understood what the other party said. He believed: First, privately minting money will unrest the society. The power of minting money lies with the court, which is to prevent unrest. Second, minting money by the court can reduce the burden of the people and transfer surpluses.
The money should be used fairly to the people, taken from the people and used for the people. Third, adjust prices.
I have to say that this guy is a man who understands economics.
To be honest, the imperial court really lacks such people.
How lucky am I to meet such a person as soon as I come out?
But this matter can't be done now! We have to wait for a while, maybe next year. After returning to the capital next year, we have to do it.
Is this person in front of me who is making money privately and is also responsible for robbing people?
"There are a lot of lost girls and young widows, but the government turned a blind eye when they found out. Why? Because they all profited from privately minting coins. There are no women in these mines.
This is why I brought the woman here." The red lady smiled bitterly on the side, "Madam, I have traveled all over the country, and I have seen all kinds of money. A pound of copper only costs 80 yuan of coins minted by the court to buy it back. They
With this pound of copper, more than two hundred copper coins can be cast. Then use such copper coins to buy food from the people or pay wages. But if the people use this money to buy things, it will not work. The merchants are very smart.
They no longer count money when collecting money, they have to count it by weight. Think about it, how many people have been taken away out of thin air due to this mess. Many people have never left the village or town in their lives, and they have no knowledge or literacy.
Just do whatever people say... You have worked hard all your life, but you are getting poorer and poorer, and each generation is worse than the last... Madam, is this world fair?"
Lin Yutong's hand clasping the tea cup couldn't help but tremble, and his heart trembled!
She had a firm look on her face, "So I have to change! So, I came out! Among the people standing in the court, there are really only a few people who are truly honest. There are a lot of people who claim to be honest. Behind everyone, there is a family, and their family
Do they know that they are involved in some things? Yes! They are clean, and their descendants, relying on the family, will lack nothing. Therefore, the only reason why many things in the court cannot be done is because of tampering with other people's interests.
Yes! I know this, the emperor knows it, and all the ministers of the court know it. However, as Mr. Song said, if this situation does not change, the Ming Dynasty will be over. You don’t have to doubt the emperor’s determination, let me say something to reassure you.
Come on! If we don’t change it, the Ming Dynasty is over, and the emperor, me, and even our descendants will be dead. If we change it, everyone will die. But if we die or they die, then I don’t think anyone will choose death for themselves.
"
Lin Yutong said and called Wang Baihu, "Take Mr. Song and get rid of the Kaifeng private mine matter! No matter who is involved, just take it! The execution site will be placed at the gate of the government office - kill!"
The court has always said it is forbidden to mint coins privately! It has also been banned, and if caught, the whole family will be killed, but it is of no use! Officials are also minting coins, who cares? Money and silk are touching people's hearts! Their homes
When more people buy shares privately, the risks are borne by others, and the profits are also shared. The court wants to investigate, and they are delaying and covering up from top to bottom. What are they investigating?
Lin Yutong asked Madam Hong to follow her, "There are captive women there. Arrange them well. If the family is willing to take them, arrange for them to go home. If the family is unwilling to take them, don't let them go to a dead end. Call the Jin Yiwei to guard them."
Take them a little further away, even to the capital, and place them in the military reclamation uniform station, where there is always a shortage of people."
Yes! That night, Kaifeng was in chaos all night. In the morning, the sound of gongs was loud, and the streets were full of noise. So many people crowded at the yamen gate, and watched as their heads were chopped off.
The ground was covered with blood and dead bodies.
The follow-up treatment was the same as that in the county town. Everyone knew that the queen was coming, but no one saw the queen. Song Kangnian had been in Kaifeng for a long time. Who was good, who was bad, and whose family had what influence?
Who can use it? Lin Yutong happened to want to see what kind of person he was, so he left it to this person.
Chen Fa followed the whole process, and a special person shuttled from time to time to report, so she knew everything. On the surface, there was no big problem, so let's leave it at that.
I originally wanted to stay in the big city for a few more days to repair it, but now I can’t!
Let’s go! Arrive in Sichuan earlier and feel at ease earlier.
The weather is getting hotter and it’s not easy to walk on the road. The weather is really weird. Early in the morning, it’s as hot as the dog days of summer. So I have to rush on the road in the middle of the night and find a place to rest at noon to avoid the heat.
.If we rush on the road in the middle of the afternoon, it will obviously not be that fast on the road.
Either we walked for several days without seeing a drop of rain. Or a heavy rain came and then poured down. Most of the thatched mud houses cannot withstand such rain. Places close to mountains have a high probability of mudslides.
Big increase.
I was doing this and that, and I finally entered Sichuan. At noon that day, I happened to encounter a place with no village in front of me, and no store in the back. Suddenly, I saw dark clouds rolling in, and the darkness came over. Lin Yutong quickly shouted
, "Quick, ruined temple... go to the ruined temple..." He rode into the temple and took the horses into the main hall, "Bring the horses in, hurry up!"
Good guy, the small hall was crowded with people and horses. As soon as I came in, hailstones as big as fists fell from the sky, and it lasted half an hour.
The dilapidated roof cannot withstand being smashed, but at least it can be stopped a little, so that the falling roof will not injure people and horses too severely.
Half an hour later, what's left outside?
It was almost time to harvest the summer grain, but now it was all smashed. The melon field closest to the ruined temple was smashed to pieces. The melons had turned into pink flesh. With a few more days of good weather, they would be ripe.
As a result, this time, it was all over.
The common people came out shivering and stood on the ground unable to help but burst into tears.
Chen En asked in a low voice, "It's cold, why don't you wear cotton clothes?"
The red lady smiled bitterly: "Where are the cotton-padded clothes and unlined clothes? When the weather is hot, take out the cotton, and this is the unlined clothes. When the weather is cold, put the cotton cover in again, and this is the cotton-padded coat. After all this time, there will be cotton-padded clothes everywhere.
?If a child is added to the family, the cotton in the adults’ cotton-padded clothes will be reserved for the children to wear. As for the adults... wait until the autumn harvest is over."
Is this how difficult people’s lives are?
It’s more shocking than what you see!
Lin Yutong sent someone, "Go to the county office and ask for disaster relief! Ask the county magistrate, will he do his best to provide disaster relief, or will he take his head and replace him with disaster relief?"
yes!
Song Kangnian whispered: "Your Majesty, if this continues... the imperial court will not worry about not being able to recruit soldiers! As long as they can ensure that they can have enough to eat as soldiers, there will be many people vying for it! If you leave your family members, you can go to the military reclamation, and the same is true inside.
I promise you won’t be hungry, right?”
right!
Song Kangnian suddenly understood the cleverness of this matter. This was actually a disguised acquisition of a lot of land into the hands of the imperial court. Concentrating land in the hands of the imperial court was equivalent to concentrating people in the hands of the imperial court. The imperial court organized land reclamation,
There will be more land.
When things get better in the future and some people no longer want to be trapped in this circle, we can even redistribute the land at that time.
Song Kangnian said: "Your Majesty, this is the best way to resolve the rebellion!"
Lin Yutong smiled and led the horse forward, "That's right! Those who want to fight for power are always those who are on top. People, regardless of their ethnicity, all they want is to eat well and wear warm clothes.
The children have Shu Nian."
Just as he was talking, Yu Hengshui chased him from behind, "Mother... there is a team of people running towards us!"
Who is it?!
Yu Hengshui was on guard, "Do we need to mobilize troops?"
No need! You can still assassinate!
It turned out that the other party was very particular. He stopped his horse when he was some distance away and sent someone to ride over. Yu Hengshui went over to ask, then turned around and reported neatly, "Your Majesty, that is Qin Liangyu, General Qin. Your Majesty,
General Qin has been transferred back from Liaodong."
Ouch! Please come quickly. Someone was sent over there to invite you, and Lin Yutong strode over to greet him.
When the person arrived, before his knees hit the ground, Lin Yutong held him up and said, "The ground is muddy and cold, so don't be too polite, general! Thank you for your hard work, general, on this journey from Liaodong back to Sichuan!"
Don't dare! This General Qin is already forty-seven years old and looks particularly strong. The two of them looked at each other and then heard the general say: "I have been famous for my empress's reputation all the way. Now when I meet
, it really deserves its reputation.”
Lin Yutong burst out laughing, you have heard my reputation all the way, and I have heard your reputation for a long time!
