I am the king of the dead

Chapter 217 Repayment of Debt, Justifiably
"China, the country in the middle!"

"Da Ming has the most arable land, the most hardworking people, and the most reliable water conservancy under the universe. Daming is the richest country in the world, but it has always stagnated."

Zhu Qiyu paused for a moment, even Xining, Guo Jing and other two devils who were the forerunners of the captives, talked about everything, and they secretly communicated with someone in China.

The word China itself is the country in the middle.

What is the Middle Kingdom?

It is the cultural center, science and technology center, economic center and military center of the world.

This is the meaning of the central state, the central state.

Daming was incomparably strong, so strong that he was defeated in the first battle of the Beijing camp, and the army was defeated like a mountain, and he was still able to collapse one of Wala's front teeth.

"However, we have been in a stagnant state for a long time. This stagnant state will slowly decline due to wars and the people who started from the fields."

This is a fact that goes against common sense in economics and against objective laws.

Daming is in a superimposed state of rapid development and economic stagnation. When the court is watching, Daming is stagnating, but when the court is not watching, it is indeed developing at a high speed.

In this stagnant society, it is impossible to see the phenomenon.

But Daming is so miraculous, always in a kind of sustainable collapse, not collapse.

The sustainable stagnation state is a model that does not exist at all in the economics where if you do not advance, you will retreat, and if you retreat, you will perish. It is contrary to objective facts.

Daming, however, has always been in a sustainable state of stagnation.

Zhu Qiyu said: "It is impossible for you to find enough labor remuneration in Oala to raise your own children. The same is true for Jiaozhi, Majapahit, North Korea, and Wa."

"Because they are also stagnant, their population will slowly decrease, wars, barren land, one or two strongmen for a short time, rule for several years, the country advances, and then begins to decline again."

"If we can provide more than twice the remuneration needed for living, then we can prevent Daming from going backwards."

"If we provide a reward that is more than four times the cost of living, then we can make Daming develop at a high speed."

"If you provide more than six times the living expenses, then Daming will be invincible in the world!"

Zhu Qiyu is still in the attitude of seeking truth from facts.

The entry point is the barren land, the deserted horse administration, and the chaos in the southeast.

After discovering the problem of Ming Dynasty's policy at this time, he then gave the reason, that is, insufficient labor remuneration, and then proposed a solution to increase the labor remuneration.

Hu Wei picked up a pen and wrote quickly: "On Wushen Day in December of the first year of Jingtai, I went to Juxian Pavilion in the lecture hall to discuss Matian politics with the ministers, and generally discussed the gains and losses of the two politics."

"The above statement: the advancement of the people leads to the advancement of the country, the advancement of the country makes the people strong, the strength of the people leads to the prosperity of the country, and the prosperity of the country leads to the safety of the people.

Hu Wei hesitated for a moment, then deleted the words "Wan Shi Bu Yi", and after some consideration, wrote "Wan Shi Bu Yi" on it.

Hu Wei considered it again and again, and continued to write: "There is a virtue of being good at life, and the soul is in mind. If the people ask for twice the cost, they will live in peace; if it is doubled, they will know etiquette and shame; if it is doubled, they will be ten thousand people. Invincible all over the world.”

"Gai Rui's quality is strong, his writing is beautiful, and he doesn't hold back his ability. He has a pioneering move. The system of the country is lenient and strict, and troublesome and simple. The chapter of the emperor's financial affairs."

"In time, the officials will fulfill their duties, the military administration will be peaceful, the laws and regulations will be established, the storehouses will be filled, the people will live in peace and contentment, and there will be no disasters in the years, and there will be signs of peace."

Zhu Qiyu watched Hu Min write for a long time, and asked, "What did you write?"

After finishing the last stroke, Hu Wei was filled with emotions. He was already seventy-five years old this year, and at the age when he was old and half of his body was buried in the soil, he felt a lot of emotion when he saw Daming's rising momentum again.

He said to the written paper: "Submit it to Your Majesty."

Of course Zhu Qiyu could understand it. He frowned and looked at it for a long time and said, "Why are you all following Wu Qinghou's example and flattering?"

"Delete all the latter, it is better to make an annotation in front."

"For example, to ensure that labor remuneration is twice, four times and six times what is needed in life, this paragraph can be used in colloquial terms, which is easy to understand, and does not require others to comment, so as to save misreading."

"And what is this eternal law of finance and economics? It has been more than a thousand years since the first emperor devoured the six kingdoms. Has there ever been an eternal law in the world? Delete it."

A law of salt has been used for more than 700 years and remains unchanged. It is not a law that will last forever, but is slack in governance and slack in governance.

After all, Zhu Qiyu's throne was usurped, he could not retreat, every step forward, there was a cliff behind him.

This Hu Yan also washes the floor on weekdays, so how can he flatter him?

Yu Qian sat in the second seat. He read the content written by Hu Wei for a long time, and he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with it. He said every sentence from the bottom of his heart, and it was very reasonable.

Yu Qian handed it to Jin Lian again, Jin Lian shook his head, and passed it on.

You have an order, and Hu Wei naturally had to obey. He handed the rewritten meeting agenda to Xing'an.

After Xing'an compared the two copies, he immediately understood it. Others may not know it, but Xing'an is extremely clear.

His Majesty said to Chen Yi, that is, Chen Yi, the censor of the right capital who went to Zhang Qiu and teamed up with Xu Youzhen to control the water, he still took to heart what he said in Yanxing Tower that day, and he was very jealous.

After drinking, Chen Yi said wildly: Continue to work after the sun goes down; praise, praise to go to the sky; praise him as if he is on the sky; His Majesty has always kept these words in mind.

Although His Majesty disdained those words before, he only sent Chen Yi as an official and informed the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

But His Majesty has always been serious about any compliments, and even wary.

His Majesty is not good at scheming, even some hooks are too straight, and he has been unable to catch any big fish, so he had to start a Beijing inspection and take out every fish to have a look.

But His Majesty is very good at plotting, and he walks the Yangguan Avenue, and it is precisely because of the Yangguan Avenue that His Majesty walks that he is afraid of such praised plots.

Xing'an couldn't help but sigh, isn't the boast that His Majesty doesn't accept, what His Majesty is doing?
It's a pity that Chen Yi and Xu Youzhen are afraid that they will continue to patrol the area. Anyway, there are many rivers in the world, and they need to be managed slowly.

Shi Pu, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, is a very capable person. He immediately proposed to increase the labor remuneration for the craftsmen of Shijing Factory.

Shi Pu has long noticed that the labor intensity of the Shijing Factory is extremely high, but he cannot get a matching remuneration. Now he has an estimate of the labor remuneration of the craftsmen of the Shijing Factory.

How much do craftsmen in Shijing Factory earn?
In fact, the monthly salt and silver system of Wang Gong Factory has been used all the time.

For example, an apprentice pays one tael a month, a craftsman pays two taels or four, a craftsman who lives and sits pays five taels a month, and a master craftsman pays nine taels a month.

Shi Pu finally had a guiding opinion. The benefits of the fourth division of Shijing Factory are very good.

In particular, Iron and Steel Division's agricultural tools sold very well, and Coal Well Division's coal fryers sold even better. Although some of them could not be sold for money, they could be exchanged for grain, and the price was very fair.

It is not a problem at all to set four times the daily necessities of Shijing Factory and Wang Gong Factory.

After Zhu Qiyu and the courtiers discussed the standard of labor remuneration for a long time, the matter of labor remuneration finally came to an end.

Xia Heng, Minister of the Taipu Temple, immediately began to conceive of the political reform of the Ming Dynasty, and what should be the starting point, but it will take a period of investigation before new conclusions can be drawn.

Huma is not available, whether it should not be relied on, or need to have horses in Ming Dynasty, how to raise horses, and how to provide enough labor remuneration for horse households are the things Xia Heng has to consider.

He also made a statement that after the Spring Festival next year, he will definitely come up with the policy of the new Malaysia policy.

"Did the officials in the official residence complain recently? I embezzled the Taicang silver coins and gave them a reward." Zhu Qiyu was still quite concerned about this matter.

Daming owes his salary again.

However, the lack of salary this time is due to the lack of production capacity of silver coins in the Bingzhan Bureau, which caused His Majesty to borrow the silver coins from Taicang, and the deadline set was to return them before the Spring Festival.

The loan was 50 taels, and the Beijing officials had to stop paying the salary for two months.

"No, I didn't spend the last time I sent it..." Wang Wen said with a frown. He really didn't hear anyone complaining. Could it be some blind guy who was caught talking nonsense again?

Has Your Majesty heard anything?

Li Binyan was a little stupid, but Li Binyan didn't seem to care much about this kind of thing.

The purchasing power of Daming silver coins is extremely strong, and the supply is in short supply. The little silver coins produced by the military battle bureau are like pebbles thrown into the sea, and not even a splash can be seen.

Seven dollars per cent can be spent as two taels of silver.

Now there is a tendency to pursue silver coins in the market, and most of them are holding the coins to wait and see, and the capital mints coins at the end of June, and the first release is the middle of August.

In the past two months, I haven't actually spent much.

"I thought everyone was complaining, and I planned to pay it back quickly. I don't owe any debts, and I don't feel bad." Zhu Qiyu nodded, and he planned to pay back the money.

50 silver coins, say more or less, that is the output of Bingzhan Bureau for one and a half months.

Zhu Qiyu knew that the money from the Ministry of Households was not only a salary, but also government expenses, etc., all of which needed to be paid from the Ministry of Households.

This has been owed, Zhu Qiyu is not stubborn when speaking, so he can't stand up and treat this emperor as an emperor.

He is currently investigating in Beijing. This is a major matter of dismissal and promotion. He has to check carefully to see if the Beijing officials have slack off in the past year.

Those who owe money are naturally weak, so it's better to pay back the money quickly, Jingcha who feels at ease.

If the emperor doesn't move, I won't move; if the emperor moves, I'll be terrified.

When His Majesty said to pay back the money, as soon as he opened his mouth, the entire Juxian Pavilion was like a gust of wind sweeping through, and it was lonely.

For the first time, Jin Lian came up with the idea that it would be better for His Majesty to owe some state money.

It was finally a little more stable, and everyone lived happily in the capital's mansion. Recently, the charcoal fire in the Nuan Pavilion was also burning. There was a lot less smoke, but it was still very warm.

What's going to happen?

Only Li Binyan looked left and right, he didn't quite understand why everyone looked like they were facing an enemy, His Majesty paid back the money, and the Ministry of Households has money to pay, isn't this a good thing?
Wang Wen looked at Li Binyan's bewildered expression, and sighed, he was a fourth-rank official, and he was in a daze all day long.

Zhu Qiyu also felt a chill atmosphere, and sighed, there is a reason why he was in the air force all day long.

When the fish has become fine, even when the water is drained, it is slippery.

Jin Lian sat up straight, and said very seriously: "Your Majesty, there has been a trend of hoarding coins in the capital recently, and we still have to find a way for the war. 38 silver coins a month are not enough, far from enough."

This time, Zhu Qiyu frowned, and he said full of doubts: "38 silver coins a month is equivalent to about 6000 million copper coins, and more than 90 billion copper coins a year, is it not enough for you to tell me?"

Jin Lian nodded and said: "Your Majesty, there is a shortage of money. In the 82 years since the founding of the People's Republic of China, there has been no large-scale imperial copper coins. During the Hongwu period, banknotes were issued, Yongle Tongbao Sea Trade, Xuande and Zhengtong years did not mint much money."

"The Baoyuan Bureau will hammer twice if there is copper, and stop working if there is no copper. It is less than 2000 million yuan a year, and the total is less than [-] yuan. This is too much owed..."

It was a little bit better during the Hongwu period. After all, there were banknotes of the Ming Dynasty to make do with. The imperial silver coins were open to minting. The holes in the previous 80 years had to be filled first, and then how many silver coins were minted each year.

Zhu Qiyu was taken aback for a moment, and his scalp felt numb in an instant. He was exhausted from the battle and couldn't afford it.

The big hole of 80 years!
