Great Tang Idyll - Chapter 1215

[Chapter 841 Read out the court policy]

Li Longji was right. In the evening, when he finished dealing with today’s government affairs under the lamp, Gao Lishi came over with a newspaper for tomorrow.

“Your Majesty, the sample report is out.”

Li Longji raised his head behind the slip and asked, “Concubine Hui and the Queen have not returned to the palace yet.”

“Arrived early tomorrow morning.” Gao Lishi replied and handed over the newspaper.

Li Longji waved his hand and smiled again: “Let’s see tomorrow, let someone read it in the hall tomorrow morning, I’m not in a hurry.”

****** The

next day, early.

All the local substations of Datang News delivered the newspapers of the day to the homes of the subscribers at the fastest speed, and the bulletin boards of the yamen were also replaced with today’s new content.

Almost all the people of the Tang Dynasty were as usual, and they didn’t notice anything wrong.

But when more people read the newspaper and some people found the problem, the sky of the whole Datang seemed to be chaotic.

******

In the Hall of Hanyuan, Li Longji sat upright, and all the ministers stood side by side, listening to what the newspaper reporter read.

“The imperial court has added new operational policies starting today. First, it subtracts a series of in-kind taxes from peasants’ rents and taxes, and replaces them with money. Those who cultivate must sell grain to raise money themselves.”

First When the article came out, officials who were qualified to go to court frowned and pondered the function of this article carefully. After pondering for a while, most people found that it was of no use. It was nothing more than that the food that was handed in before turned into money, and it was just for the farmers to sell it themselves. .

Li Longji narrowed his eyes and thought for a while.

Nod.

The reader continued to read: “Second, farmers from all over the world are allowed to use the surrounding area as a range to jointly farm with other farmers. For those who are jointly farming, one hundred households form a group, or a group leader is selected based on the village. For all land owners, the group leader can choose two types of farming. One is to negotiate the method of farming distribution, that is, one hundred households or village land owners reach an agreement with the group leader. The variety of crops to be cultivated every year is determined by the group leader, and the period cannot be changed. The second is the distribution method of lease and employment. That is: the team leader leases the fields of all the cultivators, and hires the owners of the fields to cultivate the fields

. uproar.

Now they understand the function of the first article. The

first article serves the second article. After buying and selling on their own, the amount of money they get depends on the pricing at the time of the transaction. .

Shift the risk entirely to the landowner.

The second day is another way of land merger. If you choose the first option of the second article, the land owner needs to go to gamble with the team leader. The team leader thinks that this year’s bet is correct and cannot be changed. .

In fact, once the seeds are planted, they cannot be changed even if they want to, which will delay the growth of crops.

If the second or second option is chosen, the land owner avoids the risk of selling grain by himself, paying for the land and receiving two shares.

One cent is the land lease money, and the other is labor income. There are two risks in the process, one is the risk of being hired or not, and the other is the risk of low income after high food prices.

If the decision is made by the team leader, the team leader is likely to exclude people who are not able to farm. These people will only receive part of the income from land leases, but they will lose their jobs.

“I don’t agree.” Without waiting for the newspaper reader to read it again, Zhang Jiuling came out and said bluntly that he and Zhang Wang’s family had a good relationship, but they must not be dismissed because of personal friendship.

Li Longji took the microphone to his lips: “Zhang Qing step back, today’s court meeting is not about whether you agree or not, but let you listen carefully and do it accordingly. Today is different from the past. From the beginning, to the Central Book Order, to the lower departments, just cooperate and don’t question.”

Yuan Ganyao, who was nearby, refused to do it. He still stood up strong and asked loudly: “Your Majesty, I don’t know why this policy is not taken out to discuss with us first, and then the conclusion must be passed today.

” Take it out for discussion. You have to discuss it for a short time? Can you guarantee that no information will be disclosed? Do you know what the consequences of this policy will be once the Tang dignitaries know in advance? Yuan Qing, I ask you, do you know whether I am facing the The situation you are facing?”

Li Longji threw out several questions in a row, waiting for Yuan Ganyao to give a reply.

Yuan Ganyao pondered for a while, then raised his voice: “Go back to Your Majesty, my dynasty is now a majesty of the emperor, the people are united, the commerce and agriculture are prosperous, the army…”

“To be honest, I don’t like listening to others talk for a long time now. If you don’t have anything practical, no matter how much you tout it, the problem will not be solved.” Li Longji interrupted Yuan Ganyao’s words.

All the ministers, including Zhang Zhong, sighed secretly, feeling that His Majesty had been influenced by Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan too utilitarian, and the efforts must have actual rewards, otherwise there will be absolutely no waste of time.

Yuan Ganyao coughed twice, changed his way of speaking, and said, “Your Majesty, now I have money in the national treasury, and this year’s treasury cannot be spent with the budget alone. They also know how to be flexible when farming, and use chemical fertilizers and pesticides, and the crop yield is more than doubled. In

addition, the roads are well built, there are railway connections, the caravan is organized into large-scale, and the small products developed by the Ministry of Industry are helpful The efficiency of people’s manual labor has increased, and the situation is very good. In terms of education, many people

spontaneously

learn to read with their children at night, and there are countless schools all over the world.

I know there are good aspects, but in the way of heaven and earth, if there is a yin, there is a yang, and if there is an advantage, there will be a disadvantage. I also know that my Tang Dynasty has a strong army, advanced weapons, and high morale. I can fight whoever I want. However, what I asked It’s the pros and cons.”

When Li Longji said this, he was still very proud, especially in the past two years with the Ministry of Industry’s research results, such as pesticides and fertilizers, as well as the improvement of Sinong Temple, the development of the whole country is the same as flying.

No matter where the disaster hits, don’t worry, as long as people are fine, as for the money and food lost by the people, the court will directly make up for it, which is full of confidence.

And unlike before, the disaster-stricken places only reduced or exempted rent, or sent people to cook a few buckets of porridge.

The people are very grateful, at least they don’t have to leave their hometown and die on the way to flee the famine.

Now it has been hit by a disaster. Your family is registered with the government. Even if a cow in your family dies, the court will pay you a new one.

When the disaster is over, I will build you a new house, if it is a drought.

The government will arrange for you to work elsewhere.

Never leave you alone in the pain of a disaster.

This is a great credit. In the past dynasties, which emperor did it?

Which emperor dares to speak, dare to think?

only me.

Only my Kaiyuan era.

“Your Majesty’s words are right.” Minister of Industry Zhang Zhong came out: “I don’t look at politics and harmony, but the drawbacks are still there. Although Zhang Jiedu and Wang’s deputy Jiedu have done a lot of things, such as taking care of the elderly and taking care of the young. There is education, diseases are cured, and they are all national welfare, and do not need people to spend money. However, in the process of rapid development, many things that are not conducive to national stability have occurred, and it has reached a critical period. Decision.”

Zhang Zhong said, and some people began to curl their lips.

You said that Zhang Zhong pretended to be a big-tailed wolf, and Zhang Jiedushi and Wang Jiedushi, as if you were unfamiliar with them, didn’t stand up and show off.

Just say that your son and daughter-in-law can die?

Shameless, shameless, you use the fact that you have a good son and a good daughter-in-law to attack others, what is your conscience?

Do you care about the friendship of your colleagues?

Abdominal slander returns to slander, this tone has to be endured, otherwise it will be offensive.

At that time, revenge will come quickly, and it is estimated that the other children of the family will be the first to take action.

Yuan Ganyao was run by the emperor and the minister of the Ministry of Industry at the same time. Whether his face was very good-looking, he lowered his head to consider and said, “There are some disadvantages, but they are not big. Due to the improvement of national welfare, a small number of people have become lazy, especially The policy that infants and young children go to the imperial court to raise money has made each man start to work.”

“Is there any more?” Li Longji asked again.

“Yes.” Yuan Ganyao said firmly: “There are also people who are active at this good time. After they make money, they will not spend it for a while. They buy luxury goods in large quantities, and they are richer than others. Wealth is often used to measure the level of our relationships, we are proud of our wealth, and have the image of attracting others to compare.”

After speaking, Yuan Ganyao probably thought that he had admitted the mistake just now, so he defended: “Of course, this is human nature. , Moreover, the wealthy buy a lot of luxury goods, which will help increase the income of the imperial treasury, and promote the heart of the side to compare and work hard. It is

reasonable

to say that after three generations, it will be peaceful.”

Waiting for three generations, this generation will make the country turbulent, people will be unstable, and everything is based on money. At that time, will this world be a world of people or a world of money? Only the intellectual and the food are the livestock. Money can buy sex, and it can also buy You can buy food, buy clothes and repair a house, and you can do anything if you have money, but do you need ethics? If you lose the warmth of others and only have money, this country doesn’t want it.”

Li Longji said angrily, the last time has been Start slapping the armrest hard.

“Your Majesty, calm down.” The ministers persuaded in unison.

Yuan Ganyao shuddered even more, knelt down on the ground, and said, “I never thought deeply about the sin of my minister, and I didn’t pay attention to it.”

Li Longji waved his hand: “When you get up, I don’t blame you. Can you think that there are such hidden dangers behind the prosperity? It was Xiaobao and

Juanjuan

who told me over and over again, and after analyzing them again and again, I realized that things in the world are unpredictable.

You know, in the event of a catastrophic disaster, the two of them joined hands and fought against each other stubbornly; in the event of a military disaster, the two of them laughed and waved their hands to solve it; when they said that the money was insufficient, the two of them pointed at the country and turned a stone into gold. No matter what happened , I have never seen the two of them afraid, as for your impeachment, it is a joke to the two of them.

But every time they talk about the things they are discussing today, the two of them will always look serious, occasionally showing a look of panic, and there are many sighs between their words. The sum of all of them is not so serious.

Is this not enough?

Doesn’t that explain the problem?

What is hidden behind the bustling scene, so that the two of them are afraid of this?

Do you think there is anything else in the world that can make them panic?

”

Li Longji’s voice fell, and the sound of inhalation continued to sound in the Hanyuan Hall. Under the warm sunlight, the ministers felt cold for a while.

They always knew about Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juanqiang. The strong in the soul, they have never seen what they are afraid of, and any difficulties can be easily solved in front of them. Know astronomy, understand geography, and understand things in the middle, whether it is piano, chess, calligraphy, poetry and poetry. Whether it is farming A craftsman is still a businessman, a businessman is a businessman, he is an administrative officer, and he is a general who expands the territory. The battle is invincible, the attack is invincible, and he is almost invincible.

Such people are actually afraid, and the things that make them afraid are others Dare not to be afraid? But now it looks very good. There is no big problem, how can you scare them like this.

“Brother Yongcheng, I don’t know if you know?

“The prime minister Song Jing asked aloud. He was asking Zhang Zhong. After all, he was Zhang Xiaobao’s father, and he wanted to come and have more contact with

him. The eyes of others turned to Zhang Zhong at the same time.

Zhang Zhong thought about it. He said solemnly: “Little Bao and Cuckoo once said, I, Tang Dynasty, are not afraid of disasters, disasters, nothing more than rebuilding our homeland, and I am not afraid of swords and soldiers.

They are afraid of disintegration.

Officials do not govern themselves, but use the public for personal gain; farmers do not plough their fields.

And take the job; the worker does not learn the quality, but the inferior; the business does not know the goods, but hoards and speculates the price; the teacher does not correct his appearance, but chooses students for the benefit; the doctor does not honor his virtue, but the money divides the trouble .

Once out of control now.

It will be difficult to change until then. Who will start?

Is it possible to kill the whole world?

How many years will it take to transform a nation that has lost its spiritual support?

What means can be used to restore the original soul?

Such countries are not civilizations, they are slaves of money.

So Xiaobao and Juanjuan have been worrying about this all the time. They need to choose a good balance in the process of development, and at this moment.

I need your help to set this point first, and then I will talk about the future point.

After Zhang Zhong finished speaking ,

he looked at the colleagues in the hall with sincere eyes. Some people nodded to him, some responded with firm eyes, and some bowed their heads and thought deeply.

After a while, Li Longji instructed: ” Continue to read.

At

this time, no one objected any more, and everyone was frightened by what Zhang Zhong said. The

newspaper reader took a deep breath and read again: “The second decree, Datang Qianzhuang will reduce the loan interest by 100% at one time. Ten, reduce the deposit interest by 10%, reduce the reserve rate by 20%, and use internal funds.

All handicraftsmen with more than 100 workers and less than 500 workers can enjoy a one-time bank loan policy of 3,000 coin; Loan policy; for those with more than 1,000 people, the loan amount can be increased according to the requirements of their development plan or less than 200,000 yuan, and the loan amount can be increased later.

“The

ministers know that this is Zhang Xiaobao’s start to send money, and let the people who save money in Datang take out the money to spend, and at the same time encourage handicraft industries to annex each other. There are many consequences, but the most direct consequence is currency. Devaluation, even if the country does not increase the currency issuance.

Song Jing thought about it, came to Li Longji, and asked in a low voice: “Your Majesty, would you like to let the currency depreciate?

He asked in a low voice, but there was a microphone in front of

him. After asking, everyone heard it. Song Jing was stunned and sighed helplessly.

Li Longji smiled and shook his head slightly: “It’s okay, this is a soft devaluation, It is also called temporary devaluation. As long as the court does not suddenly increase the issuance of currency, there is no need to worry about the currency being worthless, because this is a cyclical process.

The devaluation you are worried about is generated from the taxation in the currency circulation link. Every time you spend money and make money, there must be taxation. You are afraid that the imperial court will spend more money in a short period of time, resulting in an increase in actual material production. The speed can’t keep up with the speed at which the currency is suddenly spent, resulting in a currency devaluation, right?

Song Jing nodded: ”

Yes, and if you do this, the people will take money out of the bank and make sudden purchases, which will also increase the price of things. If the price is expensive, the money will be cheap. Can the money be returned?”

”

Of course, this is a small problem, and Xiaobao doesn’t care at all.

Does Song Qing know what the main channels for obtaining materials are?

At this time, Li Longji felt that he could be a teacher. At first, he chased Xiaobao and asked for a long time to figure it out.

Gao Lishi, who was standing next to him, also had a smile in his eyes. I don’t know, but after I learned it, I found out that the more I know, the more ignorant I become. The reforms of various dynasties in history that I saw in the book, the means, purpose and execution ability are far worse than Xiaobao. When it was a world apart, Xiaobao played economics to the level of ‘Tao’.

I don’t know when people who are studying now will be able to learn all of Xiaobao’s economics and continue to improve.

As a prime minister, Song Jing is very capable. It’s still not small. Hearing the emperor’s question, he immediately replied: “Your Majesty, but the production of the land and the mining of minerals?

”

“You said only part of it, and more.”

“Li Longji narrowed his eyes and said.

“Anything else?”

There is also transporting things back from the outside, which is the most direct.

“Song Jing said.

“How did that happen?”

In the process of transportation, how can you ensure that the domestic currency will not depreciate in the flow of materials or currency between the cost and profit?

“Li Longji asked again, he wanted to show his professionalism.

Song Jing regretted it. He regretted that he didn’t study the book written by Zhang Xiaobao recently. The book only flows in the upper class, and most people don’t want to see it. It’s not that others will see it. Learning, but afraid that the half-baked level they learned will operate blindly, and Zhang Xiaobao will have to go back and clean up the mess.

For example, after someone who thinks he is smart has read a book.

Start playing with cash flow, collect funds through various means, and then there is a problem in a certain link in the operation process, so that the capital chain is opened and all losses are lost.

Zhang Xiaobao didn’t want to cause such trouble to himself.

Song Jing decided to turn around and study hard, otherwise, the emperor would always ask him when he was someone else, and his face would be dull.

“I feel that it can be solved by force, so that the nature of the transaction with the outside world is not so fair, so that low-cost materials can be exchanged for high-profit materials.” Song Jing hesitated for a while, and replied bravely.

“You are thinking of a robber. It’s a show of incompetence. Then you just say that, like Xiaobao and Jujuan, you don’t even change, and you rely on the army to fight and rob them.” Li Longji was amused by Song Jing’s words.

“Please also ask your majesty to teach ministers.” Song Jing said along the way.

“Okay, I’ll teach you. If you don’t study hard, what you just said is right, but you didn’t say the most important issue. The key point is the generation and application of production technology, whether it is field planting or mine excavation. Or exchange with the outside world, all need technical support.

The problems in the field are to Sinong Temple, the update of excavation tools is to the Ministry of Industry, and the external exchange is also a matter of the Ministry of Industry. If you want to reduce the actual cost of the materials themselves during the exchange, you must increase Its technical cost. For example, a mirror, how much would you say the mirror is worth? Its raw materials and processing, a palm-sized mirror is not worth even a penny, but we can give it a ten-thousand-dollar value when

it

is exchanged outside.

It is the cost advantage brought by technology. If you don’t have technology, you can only admit the cost of others. If you want to have it, it is how much money they say.

Therefore, part of the tax earned by Datang can be specially allocated to technology. In the research department, part of it is used for infrastructure construction, such as road construction. The road is repaired, and the cost of natural goods flow is reduced. For

example, if you transport a carload of rice and send five people, the road is not good, and you walk for several months. It is estimated that after the carload of rice is eaten by you, you will still starve to death. The time spent by your five people is actually non-productive consumption. I might as well not have a carload of grain and let the five people find a place to raise chickens. ”

Li Longji said while comparing the painting.

“That’s not right.” Song Jing pondered and shook his head: “Look, Your Majesty, the fields produce grain, and people need to plant them. If you don’t plant, others will naturally plant them. The fields are just those. With the same technology, you don’t need to plant them. As the labor force of farming, isn’t it a waste of you to farm? The same is true for chickens. Chickens need to eat, and no matter what they eat, they must consume local resources. Resources are only circulating, not increasing. The things you get are like that.”

“Your idea is wrong, the resources are indeed circulating, but we don’t usually use all the resources, such as raising chickens. If you don’t raise chickens, you can fully use the place for raising chickens. The resources of land, mountains and forests?

And this resource is increasing, UU reading www.sonicmtl.com For example, sunlight, and wind, one place that increases is the sunlight resource. If you don’t need it, it will exist, and it will be wasted at that time. The resource of sunlight The most direct manifestation is the growth of plants.

There is also water resources. Clouds bring rain from other places to our Tang Dynasty. When it falls, if you don’t use it, it will flow into the sea. Why don’t you hoard it and raise it? What about

fish? Let’s

talk about wind resources, which is not easy to use now, and the technology can’t keep up. For example, wind generators can generate electricity to illuminate. If you think that lighting is useless, and people just read books, then you should think of it instead of candles. , the candles will stay. There is also heating, such as hatching chickens in winter, isn’t it saving other resources when you use electricity to hatch?”

Li Longji began to give Song Jing an example, but Song Jing already knew when he said the latter. But it’s not easy to interrupt him, the emperor finally taught you once, you must listen carefully?

“This minister is taught.” Seeing that His Majesty had stopped and started drinking tea, Song Jing said respectfully immediately.

Li Longji nodded complacently and instructed the reader: “Continue reading, there are a lot of policies today.”
