I am the king of the dead

Chapter 647 Three inches of qi can be used in a thousand ways
Zhu Qiyu hopes that during his reign, Daming can realize the transformation from a small peasant economy to a commodity economy.

In the process of this transformation, a large amount of currency is needed as a transaction support, and the circulation of the currency must also be guaranteed, otherwise the current situation will occur, and Ming Dynasty will enter the winter sequence.

The circulation of currency is not a financial phenomenon that can be directly observed, but there is a strange phenomenon in the Ming Dynasty, and it was observed by the Ming court, that is, the price of salt quotations in the Ming Dynasty.

When the price of Yanyin continues to rise, it means that the amount of Yanyin is insufficient and compensation needs to be made by Yanyin; if Yanyin remains in a stable price range, it means that the supply of Yanyin is normal and there is no need for compensation for Yanyin; if the price of Yanyin continues to fall , it means that the currency is overissued, and it is necessary to control the delivery of currency.

Daming Yanyin, as a barometer of the health of the Ming currency, was an important basis for the Minister of the Ministry of Household Jin Lian to persuade the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty to issue banknotes.

In the process of transforming the small peasant economy, Daming needed to continuously increase productivity to complete commodity production in the commodity economy.

For example, the catfish effect dominated by the government and factories of the Ming Dynasty, and the farm law pilots implemented by the Ming Dynasty in many southern provinces are all important strategies to implement the public economy of the Ming Dynasty as the main body, and are the main way to stimulate the productivity of the Ming Dynasty.

On the other hand, Zhu Qiyu made great efforts to promote education, divided disciplines into studies, set up ten calendar bureaus, and officially led inventions and creations. He already had flying shuttles, multi-spindle spinning wheels, hydraulic screw machines, hydraulic looms and other machines; Bypass, to implement the pre-standardization of mass production.

During the transformation of the small-scale peasant economy, the Ming Dynasty wanted to transform from small-scale apprenticeship workshops to free-employment labor relations for large-scale production.

Then it is necessary to liberate the people of Ming Dynasty from the shackles of the land, participate in employment, and participate in large-scale production.

These are Zhu Qiyu's responsibilities in the process of transformation of the small peasant economy in Ming Dynasty.

Relief with work is the main means for the Ming court to intervene in the economy. It is a good opportunity, but this opportunity is very expensive.

How expensive is it?

Hundreds of millions of silver coins.

After such an expensive cost, what will Daming get?
Zhu Qiyu fulfilled his promise, following the behest of his ancestors and ancestors, and built the official roads and post roads of the Ming Dynasty from the military and the lifeline of imperial power to the economic artery of the Ming Dynasty.This is a strong support for the stability of his own imperial power.

Because of the large-scale work-for-relief program in the Ming Dynasty, the Ming court planned provincial audits, dispatched by the Ministry of Industry, and the Ministry of Officials, etc., and obtained a complete set of methods and practical experience of using work-for-relief guided by the court. This kind of practical experience is extremely precious. , can bring enough reference experience for the winter sequence that will appear in the future.

Daming will increase a large number of workshops in a long-term and stable manner due to the large demand brought about by the acceleration of commodity circulation. Under the survival of the fittest, Daming's productivity will increase rapidly under natural selection.

Most importantly, Ming Dynasty will form a new economic internal cycle, an economic internal cycle that takes from the people and uses for the people.

The people of the Ming Dynasty created value through labor, and these values ​​were expressed in the form of silver coins, which flowed back to the imperial treasury of the Ming Dynasty through taxation, regular taxation, corvee, etc. Realize the redistribution of wealth.

This is the complete "Keynesianism", the charm of the state as the main body intervening in the economy.

This process is tortuous, difficult, expensive, and equally, in terms of income, Ming can complete the transformation from a small-scale peasant economy to a commodity economy.

Only this one, Zhu Qiyu is imperative.

As for where the money comes from, it is natural to have to suffer.

How much money do people have?Embarrassing [-] households with mud legs, it is better to eat big households.

Zhu Qiyu returned to the Lecture Hall after reviewing the military horses, and said to Xing'an: "Ninety percent of the influential families in the Ming Dynasty embezzled the money of the Ming Dynasty to make a fortune, and the other ten percent made their fortunes by poaching old Zhu's family. Yes, and all with typical predatory banditry."

"And after they plundered the wealth, they buried them in their own pigpens, or simply changed themselves into Japanese people like the Confucian mansion, and the Ming court became beyond reach."

"The Xiongnu, Turkic, Xianbei, Khitan, Mughal, Jurchen, these robbers who robbed the granaries of the people on the border of the Ming Dynasty as usual, are no different from these powerful families."

"What exactly did Shiyao Haoyou's family embezzle?"

"What they embezzled is the value and wealth created collectively by all the people of Ming Dynasty after the founding of Ming Dynasty, as well as the large-scale official factories and shipyards."

"That's why Daming Shi wants Haoyou's family to look ugly. They are exactly the same as the slave chieftains who robbed Daming."

"Your Majesty is wise." Zhu Qiyu's words were recorded in Xing'an's heart.

Xing'an has always been a little puzzled, why His Majesty is always trying to force the Haoyou family, now after listening to it, he finally understands.

reasonable.

Shi Yaohao is a thief, a thief, they dug out the corners of Daming, the corners of the old Zhu's house, as the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, as the grand master of the old Zhu's family, and as the father of all the people of the Ming Dynasty, they are naturally qualified to ask them debt collection.

"So let Sun Bingfu increase the absorption of the Baoyuan Bureau, and I will spend at least nearly 7000 million silver coins in the next five years, so the Baoyuan Bureau needs to absorb more than [-] million taels of silver within these five years." Zhu Qiyu said to Watching Xing'an talk about his decision.

In the next five years, Daming needs to absorb and store nearly [-] million taels of silver. Considering the leniency of the enemy and the ratio of Daming's money, Baoyuan Bureau must absorb and store at least more than [-] million taels of silver to satisfy His Majesty's gluttonous appetite.

Xing'an knew exactly that what His Majesty did was fundamentally different from Sui Yang Emperor Yang Guang recruiting more than two million people to build the Grand Canal. good.

And under the Winter Order, work-for-relief is imminent.

"Your Majesty, Liu Qi outside the Chaoyang Gate is now unemployed." Xing'an mentioned a name, Liu Qi.

It was the first time Liu Qi met His Majesty with his child in front of the rice shop, and Liu Qi mistakenly thought that His Majesty was a dignitary who bought a child.

This is not uncommon in the capital of the Ming Dynasty. Although there are many beggars in the nursing home, most of them have five disadvantages and three deficiencies. Healthy children are lined up for adoption.

Later, when His Majesty went south, he ran into Liu Qi again in the city of Nanjing. Liu Qi was sent by the Ministry of Industry to escort a large number of Jingtai Tongbao to Nanya to stabilize prices and exchange old money.

When His Majesty returned triumphantly, Liu Qi also made a pilgrimage outside Chaoyang Gate, and only then did he know that the person was His Majesty. Later, His Majesty even drank a pot of tea with Liu Qi outside Chaoyang Gate. Liu Qi's first child died, but Liu Qi Qi bought a flat-bottomed tank boat and planned to marry a new wife.

In the past few years, Liu Qi's water boats have done well, but with the approach of winter, Liu Qi's water boats will lose a day if they stop at the pier. The craftsmen of the tank boat were paid for their labor, and Liu Qi sold the barge again.

Why did Xing'an make such a mention?
Because in his opinion, immediately lowering the minimum standard of labor remuneration and interfering with Daming's financial affairs is an imminent choice, and it must be done.

Even Liu Qi, a farmer with certain means of labor, has already sold his means of labor to make ends meet. If he doesn't do anything about it, if Daming's financial affairs last for a while, it may collapse completely.

At that time, civil turmoil broke out everywhere, and Daming immediately became precarious.

Three inches of qi can be used in all kinds of ways, one day is impermanent and nothing will stop.

Three inches refers to the heart, because the heart of an adult is about three inches in length, width and height.

A day of impermanence refers to death.

When people are alive, they care about everything, plan everything, and spend countless efforts in doing things. Once an accident happens one day, everything will stop.

People are like this, so is a country. Its prosperity is also vigorous, and its death is also sudden.

Zhu Qiyu nodded. Daming has been making preparations for work-for-relief since Jingtai knew in October the seventh year that the winter prelude of Daming was coming, and discussed it at the Salt and Iron Conference. The first phase of investment has already begun. Spread the edict to all directions, and the establishment of an official cement factory has already begun.

"When will the Chunwei list be released this time?" Zhu Qiyu has already approved the top three, the second top Jinshi, and the third top Jinshi, a total of 350 Jinshi lists, and the list should be released in the next few days.

Xing'an bowed his head and said, "The list will be released tomorrow."

On February 23rd in the spring of the eighth year of Jingtai, the morning bell rang, and the capital of the Ming Dynasty woke up in the morning sun. Countless people filed out of the workshop and flocked outside the Donghua Gate.

The night is fading.

Last night, the Ministry of Rites kept the lights on. The list has been finalized and the yellow list has been written. When the morning bell rings, the yellow list will be posted.

Four sheets of yellow paper were vertically glued to the head of the list, and the list of candidates who passed was written in heavy ink.

The new list of Li Wei moved the capital, and everyone in Jiumo took a look at it.

There was a huge crowd of people, and there was a huge crowd of spectators. Not only did people come to watch the list, but there were also many people who joined in the fun.

In the fifth year of Jingtai, the students of Guozijian stepped through the thorn fence surrounding the list posted outside Donghua Gate from the east, and almost knocked down the wall where the list was posted.

This time the list is released, outside the wall of the list, there is a half-person-high wall, made of cement, which will never be stepped on again.

Outside the Donghua Gate, on the side of the moat, there is a building called the Chanting Building, also known as the Zhuangyuan Building. There are main halls, Chunqiu Buildings, and corridors communicating with each other. The overall layout is in the shape of "工".

The top of the chanting building is the top of the cross resting mountain, and the surroundings of the seat are peacock blue glazed railings with embossed dragon and peony patterns, which are dazzling in the warm spring sun.

Many candidates gathered downstairs in the chanting, waiting nervously for the clerk upstairs to call their names. After all, they were a little lucky, afraid that they would miss it outside the Donghua Gate.

There was a clerk who went up to the second floor and kept calling names in rhythmic rhythms. Someone would go upstairs when he sang his name. Often at this time, all the students looked at the person who went upstairs with admiration.

The person who goes upstairs is the person who ranks first in the list.

Even if he was born as a third-class Jinshi, he is still the dragon and phoenix among tens of thousands of students.

After going upstairs, after checking the identity of the person, before coming to the long table, write a wedding invitation with golden dye. This wedding invitation will be sent to the hometown, and the academic officer will receive it and send it back home, shining on the lintel!

It is exactly that: after the paper was expensive in the capital, when overseas gold filled in the surname.

The name of Jinke Zhuangyuan Lang is Li Chun, who is from Huarong, Yuezhou Prefecture, Huguang. He is the Huarong Road where Cao Cao walked. He was 34 years old at the time. After he wrote his name, he wrote on the wedding invitation: The number one scholar was originally determined, so Chang'e was sent to report his name!

How high-spirited and high-spirited!

"Zhejiang Henglin Fei Yiying, the 140th and third Jinshi, please come to the tower!" The clerk shouted loudly.

Fei Yiying stood in the audience, and suddenly he was a little surprised that he really hit it!

Although he was only from the third class and was born as a Jinshi, he was also a Jinshi and entered the threshold of an official. He had already read the yellow list and saw his name, but he was still a little dazed. When he came back to his senses, his face was full of surprise, and he shouted loudly: "Hey! I've won, I've won!"

The clerk looked at the crowd, and continued to watch: "Luo Bingzhong, Jinkou, Zhili, is the 140th and sixth Jinshi, please come to the tower!"

Luo Bingzhong, Shi, the chief of Prince Xiang's mansion, and His Royal Highness Xiang fled to the capital to escape the rebels, and followed His Royal Highness southward to Guizhou where he was born and died, and then went to Helin with His Royal Highness Xiang to frighten the prefect of Ara. King Ming Hua Tatar worked hard.

Luo Bingzhong took a wedding invitation and left the chanting building. His family all lived in the official residence, so he didn't have to send wedding invitations to Jinkou at all, and he knew yesterday that he had won the list.

To be exact, when he was on business in Prince Xiang's mansion yesterday, King Xiang told him that he might have won. Luo Bingzhong was also taken aback at that time, and was not very happy.

His official is the chief history of the palace, he seems to be a low-level teacher, but he is the chief history of Prince Zhide, this Jinshi background is just icing on the cake for him, and he doesn't need it.

If he really wanted to leave Prince Xiang's Mansion, he would join the Daming Anti-Corruption Office just like Shi Zhouying, the Chief of Prince Zheng's Mansion. He was also an ambassador at the beginning.

But his situation is completely different from Zhou Ying's. Zhou Ying's prince, His Royal Highness Zheng Wang, is not the first emperor's uncle; Zhou Ying will also remind King Zheng in Beijing, such as the case of Zhang Zhao's transfer to the palace last time.

He, Luo Bingzhong, never planned to leave Prince Xiang's mansion in his life.

If one day he dies, or if his waist sword stabs into the heart of His Highness King Xiang, or when King Xiang and even Demei die, his long history will come to an end.

This is also a life and death agreement.

Sometimes Luo Bingzhong wondered, His Royal Highness King Xiang, who can write about the three realms of life, the theory of sharp handles, and the theory of public morality, really didn't know that he was carrying a waist sword and could kill him at any time?
I probably know it, but His Royal Highness King Xiang keeping him by his side is probably one of the means to make His Majesty feel at ease.

"Your Highness, here are the wedding invitations." Luo Bingzhong returned to Prince Xiang's Mansion with the wedding invitations, and said quite calmly.

Zhu Zhanqian was a little bit rich, but after reading the wedding invitation for a long time, he slapped the table and shouted loudly: "Okay! Very good!"

"Our Prince Xiang's Mansion has also produced a Jinshi. Let's see who will say that my Prince Daming is ignorant! Very good, come and watch! Today is a big banquet at the Palace!"

Zhu Zhanqian gave Luo Bingzhong five hundred silver coins as a reward for winning the gold list, and everyone in Xiangwang's mansion received ten silver coins.

A big banquet was also held, and Luo Bingzhong's relatives were also invited to the palace. They could play music and dance vigorously to celebrate.

Xiang Wang Zhu Zhanqian has always been kind to others and very rich, not to mention Luo Bingzhong who has lived and died with him for so long.

Three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.

A trace of worry flashed across Zhu Zhanqian's eyes and he said: "Luo Changshi, this spring is over, your Majesty should go on a southern tour, and we are going to Fengtian Hall to sit on the square stool again, this is the fourth time. "

"Luo Changshi, you must take good care of your orphan."

"Lungong, I am the direct prince of Ming Dynasty alone. I am alone in the safe and stable prison country in Beijing. Only when I deal with state affairs, can my Majesty do my best in Nanya. You and I will see the damage of the Ming Dynasty's Winter Order. It is miserable."

"In terms of personal interests, we are life and death friends. We escaped the military disaster together in Xiangyang, fought against the Miao people in Guizhou together, and faced the scimitar of the Wala people in Helin together."

"You must take good care of the orphan!"

Now, Luo Bingzhong is different, he is now a Jinshi.

Luo Bingzhong looked at Zhu Zhanqian inexplicably, what he said was a little strange, he won the Jinshi, isn't it him?

　Ask for a monthly ticket, woohoo! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !Woohoo! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
