Chapter 2685 Gui Zi Scroll Profound changes, hindsight
The prosperity of the Yangzhou Stock Exchange has long been reflected in Di Bao and "Today's News", and now "Today's News" has even opened a special issue.
Although the column is not large, it does not appear every day, but is published every five days. It mainly introduces the situation of newly listed stocks on the Yangzhou Stock Exchange and the stocks of original stocks with large trading volume or large price fluctuations. In addition, it also takes into account the situation of treasury bonds.
Transaction status.
This was also set up specifically for this purpose by Cao Yu, instructed by Feng Ziying. The purpose is to continuously broaden the horizons of the Chinese people and allow more people to switch from land appreciation and hoarding silver to the stock market, and replace those who originally focused on buying land as a conservative financial management method for maintaining and increasing value and simply hoarding silver.
Translated to financial markets.
It has to be said that this publicity method, which is most popular among ordinary people, has achieved great results immediately.
Zhen Baochen also mentioned in Feng Ziying's letter that since "Today's News" opened this column in October of the fourth year of Wantong, it has the largest circulation in the Jiangnan region, and "Jiangnan Daily", which is on par with "Today's News", has also published it in Wan.
A special issue of the same type was launched in December of the fourth year of Tong's reign.
Five years after entering Wantong, the number of companies from the north intending to be listed on the Yangzhou Stock Exchange has increased sharply, and the capital flowing into the Yangzhou Stock Exchange from the north has also increased sharply.
By the way, "Today's News" was naturally created by Feng Ziying, but "Jiangnan Daily", which is now the second largest circulation in the country, has experienced several twists and turns. It can be said that it was Feng Ziying's instruction, led by the Dongting businessman Weng, and the Datong Duan family.
Newspapers with equity participation.
In addition, "Jiangdong Morning News", which has the third largest circulation, has some relationship with the Shen family in Suzhou, and "Lingnan News", which is distributed in Guangzhou and spread throughout Southeast Asia, also has some relationship with the Duan family.
"Today's News" not only dominates the capital city, but is also distributed in Yangzhou, Suzhou, Jinling, Hangzhou, Datong, Xi'an, Wuchang, and Ningbo, and its circulation is not small.
However, due to limited communication conditions, newspapers received from other places are basically ten days old, but even so, it also opens a window for the gentry and merchants in the southern region to understand the direction of the capital city, especially the court, so even though it is in
The timeliness is greatly reduced, but it is still sought after by the gentry.
The localization of "Today's News" is also under consideration, but it will take some time for the gentry to recognize the authority of news from the capital.
"Today's News" and "Internal Reference" have now become the standard for important ministers in the DPRK, and many people even join "Yuedan Commentary".
"Yuedan Commentary" from Qingtan Academy has become a kind of weather vane, each issue can bring something new, and Feng Ziying also insists on sending one of her articles to the editorial department of Qingtan Academy's "Yuedan Commentary" every month.
Basically, I can use various pseudonyms, which is a privilege.
The officials present here naturally don't care much about the high cost of subscribing to several newspapers every month, but they are deeply impressed by the many things they get from them.
Feng Ziying likes to use this super-dimensional strike propaganda method to achieve subtle brainwashing and infiltration. Although these people are all adults and their worldview has long been finalized, as long as the iron pestle is ground into a needle, over time, they will always be able to achieve their goals.
Bringing some changes to their thinking will always broaden their horizons and prevent them from being too disgusted when accepting new things.
However, many people have realized the influence of this kind of newspaper. For example, many censors in the Metropolitan Procuratorate have proposed to censor newspapers published in various places to prevent the appearance of remarks that are harmful to the prestige of the court.
Fortunately, Feng Ziying had warned Cao Yu from the beginning to carry out censorship when running the newspaper, so "Today's News" basically used a popular science and subtle way to carry out propaganda. Whether it was the Ministry of Rites or the Metropolitan Procuratorate, it was
"Today's News" is still relatively recognized.
Feng Ziying's topic is no longer limited to military affairs, but also puts forward a more ambitious and long-term presumption about where the empire will go in the future.
That is how this empire will operate in the next five or even ten or twenty years, and what goal it will achieve. However, Feng Ziying very smartly used the army to expand territory for the imperial court and eliminate population violence for the imperial court.
The topic of the huge hidden dangers and pressures brought about by growth was brought up, and it naturally extended to this topic.
The topic suddenly expanded to such a large and deep level, which surprised Gu Bingqian and others.
They knew that Feng Ziying would definitely not be limited to military affairs. She was just as carefree and open-minded when discussing with cabinet ministers before. But at this big meeting, when it came to the future direction and goals of national development and construction, she just
I feel a bit unbearable.
It has to be said that Feng Ziying suddenly raised this topic, which also aroused heated discussion among everyone in the hall.
Where should the financial revenue be used instead? What are the future goals set by the imperial court as a standard, and how should the financial revenue support the realization of these goals?
This series of questions actually points directly to a core issue, which is the core elements around which the court should establish its goals. This point is about to emerge.
"They are all talking about the national economy and the people's livelihood, but what is the country and what are the people?" Feng Ziying saw that everyone was thoughtful. She originally wanted to restrain herself a little, but she felt that she had to make this topic clear, so she might as well take this opportunity to talk about it.
I can also take this opportunity to make everyone think deeply.
The current cabinet will be completely different from the previous cabinet. It will have clearer goals and clearer ideas, just because of itself.
"Some people may say, isn't the country the same as our Zhou Dynasty? Of course, the people refer to the common people. This statement is correct, but it is not entirely true." Feng Ziying asked and answered herself: "The country is based on the people, and the country is also established for the people. In reality, the country
It is a broad concept that includes not only the structure and system of our court, but also the ideas, customs and habits of all of us. It is such an organic synthesis. What about the people? Ordinary people, but I think it is not completely accurate. It should cover
The five classes and groups of scholars, peasants, workers, merchants and soldiers were established.”
"When the country and the people are integrated, they form a complete whole, but the root lies in the people, and I believe that the interests of the people are to allow them to live and work in peace and contentment, have a house for everyone, and a way for the young and strong to make a living.
Whether they are working in a workshop, cultivating land, fishing and hunting, or sailing or driving a boat, the old, weak, sick and disabled can be provided for..."
These words seemed to be high-profile or reasonable. Everyone was already familiar with these words, so naturally they would not be moved by them.
Feng Ziying also understood, so she changed the topic: "But to achieve these goals, we don't just follow the instructions step by step. As I said just now, regardless of future population growth, there are still countless people in our country who are hungry and have insufficient food and clothing.
Without covering the body, countless people die of starvation and disease every year. It is impossible for everyone to do what I just said, but we should at least try our best to satisfy the vast majority of people in each class...
"
A large group of people in the palace frowned again. Everyone from every class, including scholars, farmers, industry and merchants, knew that now that Feng Ziying had added a soldier without authorization, did he think that the wishes of the army should also be included in it?
Of course Feng Ziying understood everyone's dissatisfaction, but he wanted to put it forward: "Scholars, peasants, workers, merchants, and soldiers may sound like five classes, but soldiers and soldiers actually exist dependent on the country, or the court, and they themselves do not
To produce anything, the two are actually more about controlling this collective and then safeguarding the interests of this collective. Some people may say that the same is not true for businessmen. But businessmen are the connector between the two largest strata of workers and peasants, and even they
They themselves are part of the workers and peasants, but the division of labor is slightly different..."
"So, from the perspective of the national economy and the people's livelihood, the strength of the country and the prosperity of the people, and the peace and prosperity of the country and the people, as the top of the court, we should actually focus on how to maximize the interests of the three parties.
, only when the interests of the vast majority of them are maximized, can the interests of our soldiers and soldiers be maximized. This is a symbiotic relationship..."
A group of people roughly understood that the reason why Feng Ziying described the internal relationship here in such detail and painstakingly was because he wanted to bring together the interests of all classes in the entire Zhou Dynasty to the maximum extent, and then use it to support what he mentioned before.
The strategic expansion plan comes up.
Everyone laughed, feeling that they understood the meaning of Feng Ziying's words. After all, the imperial court's wealth should support this strategy, and this strategy will be led by the army first.
Feng Ziying secretly sighed in her heart. These people have not changed their minds yet. They always think with the old thinking and are not aware of the changes in the entire current situation in the past ten years, especially in the two major regions of Shanshan, Shaanxi and Jiangnan.
The entire gentry public group and class are undergoing huge and profound changes.
The industrial and commercial power of Jiangnan continues to expand, and the volume of trade with other countries outside Jiangnan, including overseas, is getting larger and larger. Similarly, although Shanshan and Shaanxi are not as good as Jiangnan, relying on the breakthrough development of a series of industries such as steel, coal, cement, and shipbuilding,
The power of industry and commerce is also growing rapidly. At the same time, with the expansion of a series of financial institutions such as banks and securities exchanges, the group of practitioners and rentiers dependent on this system are also growing significantly, and their influence is also growing.
This change also directly impacted the original inherent group strata, and even caused huge differentiation and collapse.
In particular, the gentry in the south of the Yangtze River showed two extremes. A considerable number of them have begun to embark on the route of industrial and commercial profit-making, while a small number still stick to the land, but they also accept the concept that hoarding silver is not as good as depositing it in a bank for rent, and then begin to
When you get involved in the stock market, this change will become more profound as time goes by.
But it is really regrettable that the people in the DPRK and the Central Committee are still belatedly aware of this change, or have not really realized this change.
