Chapter 243 Inspecting the Army

 The history of banks has a long history in China.

During the Tang and Song dynasties, it was called a gold and silver store, a counter shop, and other concurrent operations. With the popularity of banknotes in the Yuan and Ming dynasties,

A financial organization that exchanges copper coins is called a money store.

During the Wanli period, with the popularity of Yibu method, silver exchange shops began to become popular on a large scale, and Qianmipu became a financial institution that flourished everywhere at that time.

The bank's banknotes gradually began to circulate.

However, unlike the large-scale circulation in the Qing Dynasty, the money notes at this time were only exchanged by merchants for long-distance transactions, and they were also limited to chambers of commerce.

For example, within Shaanxi merchants and Shanxi merchants, what banks pay attention to is credibility.

Therefore, the bank Zhu Yixi set up at the beginning was also limited to the military, and was responsible for distributing salaries to ordinary soldiers.

Named Sun and Moon Bank.

"What do you guys think of banks?"

Wearing a warm fur coat, Zhu Yixi sat on the bullock cart, feeling the vibrations caused by the uneven road surface, and said a little irritably.

Without springs, the comfort of the carriage is really annoying, but even if the ox-cart is stable, it cannot avoid these problems.

"Your Highness, all the soldiers who have families like it."

"Military stamps and military badges must be present at the same time to receive payment. It is very safe. When soldiers go to war, their families will not be hungry."

Zhu Mou wrapped it tightly and said with a smile: "But those bachelors are used to cash. Once the monthly salary is paid, they will immediately hand it over to the woman's belly."

"Although it is said to promote commercial taxation, there are many hidden dangers in the long run."

Zhu Yixi frowned slightly and pointed out: "They still have to find a wife for them. If the yellow flower has a big girl but a young girl, then she will be a widow."

"In this troubled time, we can support each other."

There are always people who think that the general ethics prohibits women from remarrying, but in fact it is not that strict.

As long as you are widowed and don't steal someone secretly, it is still okay to remarry openly.

Of course, many villages covet chastity memorials (tax reductions, reputation), or do not allow children to remarry, and it is common for women to be forced to remain widowed.

But these are troubled times. Although Huguang has initially established a ruling order, after all, it is still the words of King Yu. Who dares to violate it?

The government will be able to lay a solid foundation for the government by adding more people to pay taxes.

"You are right."

Zhu Mou nodded: "These big-headed soldiers still need to find a wife and feel at ease. Only when they have a wife and children to look after them can they focus on killing people and fighting."

The oxcart moved slowly. Zhu Yixi had many ideas about Sun and Moon Bank:

"Bank branches should also be set up near military garrisons in various places, so that soldiers can easily send their salary to their families and improve their lives."

"In this way, future rewards and other rewards will also be greatly reduced."

Zhu Mou lowered his head and smiled awkwardly.

Obviously, this was a knock on him.

In the case of food and salary officials, fat worms are likely to appear even if they are repeatedly warned. This is the same in the military and official circles.

His Royal Highness, Prince Yu, was thinking deeply.

In fact, he has a very deep idea about military tickets.

It is a preview of banknotes.

Military tickets can be exchanged for military pay. In a sense, they are also endowed with the ability to exchange.

As time goes by, it will slowly penetrate into society, thus forming a financial concept of paper money, gold coins, silver coins, copper coins, and a four-fold cycle.

But this is just a beautiful imagination.

As a last resort, Zhu Yixi kicked him back and put a military lock on him.

Without him, the treasure banknotes are so bad that even the military bills will be implicated, and the financial order will be affected.

"China is still developing too early." Gu

Zhu Yixi sighed.

In the Southern Song Dynasty, Jiaozi became legal tender. In the Yuan and Ming dynasties, large-scale rotten hair plundered people's wealth, so that paper money smelled on the streets.

The first attempt at paper currency in the West was the British bank notes issued in 1694, hundreds of years too late.

At this time, the royal power was limited, and interference with paper money was reduced, which instead allowed paper money to develop.

Therefore, the precocious China invented paper money early, but it suffered from the interference of the increasingly centralized emperor and became a tool for making money.

Instead of doing this, it would be better to issue gold and silver coins to allow the financial industry to develop normally.

After thinking about it, Zhu Yixi came to the military camp outside the city.

Although the Songun policy has changed to the simultaneous development of military and political affairs, it does not mean that Zhu Yixi's reform of the army has stopped.

Military votes are one aspect, and ideas are another aspect.

For example, the Military Academy was officially fixed.

"The Military Academy teaches a lot about "Military Preparation", which covers five aspects: military tactics review, strategic examination, formation training, military capital multiplication, and accounting. It is an eye-opener for ordinary generals."

The chief instructor bent down and explained.

The military academy is not a class for veterans, but the teacher explains it word for word. If you encounter something you don't understand, you skip it. It's up to the soldiers to understand it themselves.

To put it bluntly, the military academy is equivalent to the training of middle-level generals such as generals. Generally, newly appointed commanders, captains, generals, etc. are given pre-job training.

You only need to know military formations, military flags, training, gunpowder and other knowledge.

After understanding this knowledge, you can better understand the general's intentions and respond calmly.

Senior generals, on the other hand, cannot be cultivated and can only be selected through cruel selection through war.

It is not possible to cultivate talents step by step, and Zhu Yixi does not have the effort.

A large number of solid grassroots officers are the foundation of a strong military.

His Highness Prince Yu glanced at it. This kind of cramming method was inevitable because of mass production.

"continue--"

The inspection of Min'en Camp continued, and Wang Guangen was sweating profusely, fearing that if he did not do well, King Yu Lei would be furious.

"But he said that Yue Fei's mother-in-law helped him get it by reciting the four characters "Serve the Country with Loyalty and Loyalty"...

During the afternoon class time, the storyteller stood in front, held his head high, and spoke eloquently.

The soldiers raised their heads and listened carefully, their eyes shining, and their emotions fluctuated as the story turned.

Even an officer couldn't help but find a chair, sit down and listen carefully to the general.

Yue Fei's loyalty, Yu Qian's bravery, and Emperor Taizu's wisdom and martial prowess are all common themes in military camps.

If the soldiers listen carefully, these stories will subtly fill their minds. After a long time, they will naturally know loyalty.

At least, I know the kindness of King Yu.

After standing for a while, King Yu listened very seriously.

"Half a day of training, half a day of rest, and a combination of work and rest can reduce the roar of the camp."

Zhu Yixi whispered.

Immediately, he grabbed a soldier at random and asked, "What did you eat for lunch?"

"Wild vegetable egg drop soup, fried vegetables, and pickles."

"Can you eat enough?"

"I can eat enough, but there is too little meat. It's not enough."

The soldier answered honestly.

In Wang Guangen's expectation, King Yu said softly: "It's okay, keep it up."
