Five years as county magistrate, hundreds of millions of kilograms of grain shocked Li Shimin Chapter 340: Sand table diagram explanation, five surnames and seven hopes transfer
Chapter 340: Sand table diagram explanation, five surnames and seven hopes transfer
After checking in at the Household Department, Fang Yuan went to Yipinxiang.
In Yipinxiang, Fang Yuan rented out the entire restaurant in Li Shimin's name to entertain today's family representatives.
When Fang Yuan arrived, many people had already come to the restaurant, about hundreds of people.
This is not a diner, but the head of the family or a representative of the family.
Hundreds of people, representing hundreds of aristocratic families.
"I've met Mr. Fang!"
Everyone saluted Fang Yuan one after another.
"Thank you for coming."
Fang Yuan returned the gift.
I would like to express my gratitude to everyone for being casual.
Not long after, Juzi led people to launch three sand tables.
The three sand tables are models of three communities, namely large, medium and small communities.
"You are all representatives of a family, or you are the head of a clan. Your time is very precious, so I will not waste your time and go straight to the topic."
"As we have seen, the three models are defined as cities, mansions, and gardens based on their sizes. Different models must have different inputs and time-consuming."
"When you make a choice, you should choose the model of the community according to the size of your land to avoid making mistakes and wasting time and cost."
"Naturally, these models are just references. If you have your own ideas, you can do it according to your own ideas."
Fang Yuan came to the three sand tables and introduced them to the sand tables.
Many people at the scene had never seen a sand table before, and they all marveled at the magic of the sand table.
Facing such an exquisite sand table, they couldn't put it down, and they praised it so much that they felt proud.
"Master Fang, this sand table is truly a masterpiece of craftsmanship."
"But what I want is land. When can I trade it?"
A family head asked.
They marveled at the exquisiteness of the sand table.
But when I come here today, almost all of them are here for the land.
They also have a lot of land, but compared to the imperial court, it is definitely better than the imperial court.
With the policy support of the imperial court, even the wasteland can become a cornucopia of money in the future.
"The land can be traded at any time, but capital subscription is required before the transaction."
"This capital subscription is based on one community, that is, more than one of you can jointly develop a community, with this community as the unit."
"In addition, the capital subscription for each community is made with real money, starting from one million, and more will be refunded and less will be replenished."
Fang Yuan said loudly.
"Start with one million?!"
All the aristocratic families were shocked and in an uproar.
For countless people, one million is an amount they will never earn in their lifetime.
For a small family, one million is also a huge amount, and it may not be available for a while.
For a medium-sized family, it is very distressing to take out so much cash at once.
"One million is indeed a lot, but the more you invest, the more you will earn in the future."
"I believe I don’t need to explain the role of the land to you. Coupled with the support of the imperial court, the community will become the main residence of the people in the future, and you will also be able to make a lot of money."
Fang Yuan said confidently.
Fang Yuan is not sure whether the community will become the main residence of the people in the future.
But being able to withdraw cash from aristocratic families is very necessary for the promotion of banknotes.
Now the Five Surnames and Qiwang are promoting their seven-star banknotes across the country, and even following Fang Yuan's model, they are redeeming them at a loss.
But with Fang Yuan's move, most of the copper coins in the world still flowed into Huaxia Bank.
This is the solution Fang Yuan came up with for the sake of being the Minister of Household Affairs and solving the problem of the bank.
Achieve multiple things with one stone!
"It's only one million. I believe Mr. Fang will lead us to make more money."
"I, the Dugu family, fully support Mr. Fang's plan to build a community and pledge one million yuan."
Dugu Bo shouted loudly in the crowd.
He learned that today was the first day Fang Yuan promoted community housing, so he came all the way from Luoyang?
Everyone looked at Dugu Bo with different expressions: You were supported by Fang Yuan, you must give your full support.
"The Hongnong Yang family fully supports Master Fang's plan to build a community and subscribes for three million!"
Suddenly, a voice interrupted everyone's discussion.
Everyone looked over and saw a butler speaking loudly.
It can be seen that this is a representative, not the owner of the Hongnong Yang family.
But that’s it, it’s even more shocking, I feel like I can make a lot of money by investing in building a community.
After all, the Dugu Family and the Hongnong Yang Family are both first-class families with strong strength.
Both families support Fang Yuan in building a community. Why should they hesitate to buy land?
Afterwards, more than half of the aristocratic families made a decision and decided to subscribe for capital on the spot, then sent the money back to the local governor's office, and the receipts were sent to Fang Yuan.
As for the small half of the aristocratic families who have not made a decision, it is mainly because one million is too much, they are looking for partners, and those who are really hesitant.
But what happened next was not what Fang Yuan cared about. After seeing that the situation was about the same, he said goodbye to everyone and followed them to observe the sand table diagram.
With Juzi and others present at the scene, Fang Yuan can leave with peace of mind.
Just after walking out of Yipinxiang Restaurant, Luo Chengcheng appeared at the door.
"Sir, my subordinate discovered something very strange."
"Cui Runyu, the patriarch of the Boling Cui clan, left Chang'an City the day before yesterday."
"Yesterday, Wang Xiaolin, the patriarch of the Wang family in Taiyuan, left Chang'an City."
"Today Lu Deshui, the patriarch of the Fanyang Lu family, left Chang'an City."
Luo Cheng looked solemn and said in a deep voice.
Half a year ago, he was ordered by Fang Yuan to keep an eye on the clan heads of the five surnames and Qi Wang, and inform Fang Yuan if any special situation happened to these clan heads.
"Three in a row?"
Fang Yuan was greatly surprised and subconsciously felt that something was wrong.
"More than three."
"There is no news about the two clan leaders of the Longxi Li family and the Zhaojun Li family."
Luo Cheng said in a deep voice.
He learned that Cui Runyu had left Chang'an City the day before yesterday, but he didn't take it seriously.
After all, it is normal for a living person to leave Chang'an City.
But yesterday and today, after two more clan leaders left Chang'an City, he felt something was wrong, so he inquired about the situation of the other clan leaders.
Unexpectedly, there has been no news about the two clan leaders of the Longxi Li family and the Zhaojun Li family for a long time. No one knows where they have gone, and no one in the clan knows.
"I'm afraid we don't know what happened."
"Keep watching and report to me at any time!"
Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.
After letting Luo Cheng leave, Fang Yuan's heart became heavy.
After thinking about it, Fang Yuan decided to go into the palace to find Li Shimin and explain what he had discovered.
"I already know."
"Actually, except for the head of the Zheng clan in Xingyang, all the other heads of the five surnames Qiwang have left Chang'an City."
Li Shimin's face turned ugly and he said.
Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the patriarchs of the five surnames Qiwang have moved to Chang'an City.
More than ten years have passed, and they rarely leave Chang'an City, let alone one after another.
Nowadays, some places in the Tang Dynasty are not stable, and it is time for the Minister of Household Affairs to be replaced, but they left together. This has to make Li Shimin think a lot.
"Did you find anything?"
Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.
Sure enough, Li Shimin knew.
After all, Li Shimin was very afraid of the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes.
Li Shimin naturally paid close attention to the traces of their clan leader.
"Not yet. They didn't get together after they left Chang'an City."
Li Shimin shook his head and said.
From the time they left Chang'an City, he had Yuan Tiangang send bad guys to keep a close eye on them.
But so far, I haven’t seen them do anything out of the ordinary, let alone have any contact with them.
"This is strange."
Fang Yuan was surprised.
He had a strong feeling that it would not be so easy for the patriarchs of the Five Surnames and Qiwang to leave.
"Your Majesty, Yuan Tiangang would like to see you."
At this moment, Wang De came in from outside.
"Xuan!"
Li Shimin's eyes narrowed and he immediately announced that Yuan Tiangang was coming in.
Fang Yuan saw that Li Shimin did not let him leave, nor did he say anything about leaving.
Yuan Tiangang arrived at this time, probably because he found the reason for their departure.
"Your Majesty, minister."
Yuan Tiangang hurriedly walked in.
But after seeing Fang Yuan here, he didn't speak immediately.
"Is it because of the Five Surnames and Qi Wang thing?"
Li Shimin said in a deep voice.
"Yes!"
"Longxi, Zhaojun, Boling, Qinghe, Fanyang, Xingyang, Taiyuan and other places vigorously promote seven-star banknotes."
"In some places, they exchange 100 copper coins for 110 banknotes, in some places, 100 copper coins are exchanged for 120 banknotes, and in even more extreme places, 100 copper coins are exchanged for 130 banknotes!"
Yuan Tiangang said in a deep voice.
When he saw Li Shimin asking if it was about Wu Surname Qi Wang, it meant that if it was about Wu Surname Qi Wang, he could tell it in front of Fang Yuan and there was no need to hide it.
"The maximum loss is 30%?!"
"What do they want to do?"
Li Shimin was shocked.
I feel vaguely uneasy in my heart.
The feeling became stronger and stronger, and I felt more and more that something big had happened.
"Your Majesty, does the court also recognize seven-star banknotes?"
Fang Yuan's expression changed and he exclaimed.
He thought about something, something terrible.
"Yes, what's wrong?"
Li Shimin responded quickly.
Seeing Fang Yuan so panicked, he became even more uneasy.
"What a tragedy!"
Fang Yuan said with an ugly expression.
"What happened?"
Li Shimin frowned and asked.
It’s already this time, why are you still hiding it?
Yuan Tiangang also looked at Fang Yuan, curious about what Fang Yuan was talking about.
"I promote road construction and community building. I have the idea of taking back the copper coins of the world's aristocratic families and promoting paper money."
"Nowadays, seven-star banknotes are being exchanged at a loss. The aristocratic families can use less copper coins to exchange for more banknotes, and then turn them in to build roads and communities."
"In this way, instead of promoting our banknotes, we help them promote the seven-star banknotes. This is a huge benefit to their seven-star banknotes, and they will be completely circulated throughout the world."
Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.
Whether it is Chinese banknotes or seven-star banknotes, they are actually just a piece of waste paper in each other's hands.
Only when it circulates out and then flows back is real money.
Seven-star banknotes took advantage of this opportunity to push the banknotes out vigorously and exchange them for the copper coins of the families, who made a lot of money.
As for the imperial court, it was frantically absorbing their banknotes, and invisibly suffered a loss from the exchange by Five Surnames and Seven Hopes.
"Damn, they are so hateful!"
"Fang Yuan, what do you think I ordered not to accept seven-star banknotes at this time?"
Li Shimin was furious.
I could have made a hundred, but after using the operation method of Wu Xing Qi Wang, I could only make seventy.
And what if the treasury is full of seven-star banknotes? You are just looking for shame, and others will laugh you to death.
At the same time, Li Shimin also secretly admired Fang Yuan for promoting the construction of roads and communities while also involving banknotes.
What a talented person who can accomplish multiple things with one stone.
"Your Majesty is not afraid of breaking up with Wu Xing Qi Wang?"
Fang Yuan was stunned and said in surprise.
Before, Li Shimin refused to break up with Wu Xing Qi Wang.
Now it's still because of the banknotes that I'm about to break up with Wu Xing Qi Wang.
"They definitely didn't leave Chang'an City because of the banknotes."
"Now that they have a plan, it's not up to me whether we want to break up or not."
Li Shimin said in a deep voice.
He doesn’t want to break up with Wu Xing Qi Wang.
But they left Chang'an City one after another, which made Li Shimin feel very uneasy.
Now we are focusing on the money brought about by building roads and residential communities. How can we tolerate them?
"Time is money, and we may lose a lot of money every quarter of an hour late."
"Now that Your Majesty has made a decision, I think I will immediately issue an imperial edict to the world."
Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.
Nowadays, many aristocratic families in the world are working together to build roads.
Documents kept coming to Fang Yuan from all over the place.
But they have no idea whether they use Chinese banknotes, copper coins, or seven-star banknotes.
In this case, if all payments were made with seven-star banknotes, it would be a huge loss for the court.
It is also a huge insult to myself.
"I understand!"
"Wang De, prepare a decree!"
Li Shimin nodded heavily.
Call Wang De from outside the palace and immediately draw up an edict.
Not long after, an imperial edict was drafted and handed over to Yuan Tiangang.
"Your Majesty, won't you go through three provinces for proofreading?"
Yuan Tiangang received the imperial edict and asked in confusion.
When the emperor issues an imperial edict, he needs to go through a complicated process.
But there are also emperors who directly issue imperial edicts, but the effect of such edicts is not as great.
"How long has it been since this happened, and you still want them to interfere?"
"Go and inform the world immediately, especially the governors' offices everywhere!"
Li Shimin said in a deep voice.
The imperial edict that passed through three provinces took a few days at least.
Time is money now. The longer you wait, the more you will lose, and the better you will be.
Therefore, Li Shimin would rather be impeached by Wei Zheng and others, why not go through the normal process and immediately notify the world of the imperial edict?
"I understand!"
Yuan Tiangang nodded solemnly.
Leave with Li Shimin’s imperial edict.
It didn't take long for the people of Chang'an City to know that the imperial court did not recognize the seven-star banknotes and did not allow them to be used in transactions related to the imperial court.
The news spread quickly under Yuan Tiangang's plan, and radiated in all directions with Chang'an City as the center, making more people aware of this imperial edict.
The common people all know it, and the ministers in the court must also know it.
Officials from the three provinces were very dissatisfied and felt that they were not being taken seriously. They all asked Li Shimin for an explanation and asked Li Shimin to recall the imperial edict and reissue it.
"Your Majesty, I will retire first."
Fang Yuan could hear the noise outside from inside the Imperial Study Room.
There was constant noise, all accusing Li Shimin of not bypassing their three provinces and issuing the edict directly.
Fang Yuan felt upset and prepared to leave.
But at this moment, Wang De came in again.
"Your Majesty, Cui Zhentang, the Minister of Household Affairs, would like to see you."
