Chinese dining table

Yunchu opened the last page of the account book, looked at the last string of numbers on his left hand, sighed softly and said to Liu Yuanshou: "There is too much money left, and we need to keep more supplies in the future. The people of the Tang Dynasty have more money in their hands these years. I think there's going to be another big batch of copper being sold."

Although Liu Yuanshou was very shrewd, he didn't know that the royal family, nobles, aristocratic families, temples, and Taoist temples were the things that really controlled the economy of the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, he didn't know how to answer Yunchu's words.

"In the past, most of the renovations in Fangshizi were done by Jinchangfang. Now, since Wannian County has such a large sum of money in the account, the county government will take the lead in doing it."

Liu Yuanshou was stunned for a moment and said: "The county, the country is the country, and the family is the family. The two should not be confused. There is nothing wrong with Jinchangfang in the process of transforming Fangshizi over the years, and Wannian County hastily took over. Regardless of whether the people are willing or not, those of us have never done it before, and I am afraid it will be difficult to do it well.”

Yun Chu glanced at Liu Yuanshou, then looked at the officials standing in the hall, shook his head and said, "This renovation of Fangshizi is not just as simple as renovating common people's houses, we also need to renovate the roads, water and land in Chang'an city." Both roads need to be refurbished. Those that should be paved with stone slabs should be paved with stone slabs, and those that should be dredged should be dredged. Some unreasonable roads should be re-planned, and then the Fangshizi waterways that can use the waterways will be connected.

In addition, there are a series of things to be installed on Suzaku Avenue, such as installing street lights, laying drainage pipes, and hardening the road surface.

No one pays for these things for us, we can only pay for them ourselves. Since the state funds are used, it is not appropriate for private participation. "

Liu Yuanshou scratched his scalp and said, "Why is the magistrate in such a hurry to spend the money?"

Yun Chu looked at Liu Yuanshou and smiled, and tapped his fingers on the table a few times, saying: "Don't save money, save things, that's the best policy. Things that can be done ten thousand times now, can be done after a year or two." If so, I am afraid that more money will be needed.

This time Hu merchants entered Beijing on a large scale, and one of the hidden dangers brought to Chang'an was that a lot of money poured into Chang'an. "

Liu Yuanshou said puzzledly: "Master Xian, isn't it a good thing for us to have a lot of money entering Chang'an?"

Yun Chu took out two Hu Bings that he bought when he passed by the Hu Bing stall in the morning and put them in front of Liu Yuanshou, pointing to the Hu Bings and said, "When the Hu merchants first entered Chang'an, one piece of cake cost four dollars. Now, three cakes cost four dollars." money."

Liu Yuanshou was furious and said: "These black-hearted merchants dare to drive up the market price. Don't worry, the county officials will deal with it now."

Yun Chu stood up and came to the officials, looked at them calmly and said, "Don't bother, the price of cake sellers has increased because the price of food has increased, the price of charcoal fire has increased, and the prices of other things have also increased. Yes, he used to be able to support his family by selling a piece of cake for one yuan, but now he can't.

Therefore, we have to spend the money in our hands as soon as possible, and hoard all of them into supplies for me to store in the warehouse. However, try not to buy food and other livelihood supplies in Chang'an, and go to faraway places to buy.

Although it's useless to do this, after all, we didn't cheat our own people.

In addition, come up with a reward plan as soon as possible, and send all the money that should be distributed. "

After Yunchu finished speaking, he returned to the room. The servants closed the door and separated Yunchu from the officials.

Liu Yuanshou looked at the officials and said: "The county lord is as generous as ever, this time, you will be rewarded a lot."

All the officials had been waiting for the master's words for a long time, and everyone smiled when they heard the words.

When the exhausted gentleness dragged his heavy steps to the Wannian County Government Office, Yunchu was cooking tea. He ate a few mouthfuls of the mustard cakes Yunchu bought, drank a few cups of tea, and said to Yunchu, "This business is Well, it's a pity, after all, it's not very balanced. The amount of food we need, charcoal and other materials are far from enough, but there is a huge surplus of things like linen.

It seems that we still need to continue to trade, reduce the price of surplus materials such as linen, and increase the prices of materials that we lack, such as grain and charcoal. How to handle this, do you have any regulations? "

Yun Chu shook his head and said, "Most of the movable charcoal and food and other things have been brought into Luoyang. This is an act led by the Ministry of Household Affairs. This year, Chang'an took over less than [-]% of the previous year's grain. This is why we are short of food. .

As for the charcoal produced in Guanzhong, it was also taken to Luoyang by the Shaofu Supervisor. We will soon face strife from Luoyang. "

Rourou leaned on the chair and said: "Luoyang has become the Eastern Capital. I expected that Chang'an's blood would be sucked out, but I didn't expect that this has not started yet. We have already had a big problem here."

Yun Chu laughed and said, "Most of the dignitaries went to Luoyang, the eastern capital, and it wasn't just people they took with them."

After speaking, Yunchu stood up, put on his official uniform, and said to Rou Rou: "I'm going to see His Majesty right now, to see if I can give Chang'an some benefits in terms of policy."

Gentlely shook his head and said: "During the year of Yonghui, His Majesty had already decided to move the capital to Luoyang. Although Chang'an is still the capital, His Majesty has made a decision long ago, and will not satisfy Chang'an at the expense of Luoyang's interests.

With the continuous expansion of the land area of ​​the Tang Dynasty, Chang'an has already said that it is a corner of the country. Designing Luoyang as the eastern capital is a national policy for His Majesty to break away from the influence of the Western Qin Dynasty and enter the Central Plains. This national policy has been implemented for ten years. Most likely to go back. "

Yun Chu smiled and said, "Has your ancestor recently thought of reshaping the golden body for the family temple?"

Gentle nodded and said: "It has already started, after all, the people nowadays are too rich.

Yesterday I saw that the handymen in Chang'an County began to eat meat cakes with meat for breakfast. If things go on like this, don't they want to eat big fish and big meat? "

Yun Chu smiled and said, "So, you started to build residences for the officials in Chang'an County and let them buy them?"

Gentle laughed and said: "They are used to spending money recklessly. Rather than eating up all the money, it is better to let them buy a house. After the golden body of my family temple is finished, it will not let the days go back to how many years ago. years ago.

Let me tell you, this time I am going to borrow money. Didn't the court have a way to catch money and envoys before?
This is an opening, and I'm going to take advantage of it. "

Yun Chu shook his head and said: "Just use the money in your hand well. Now go to borrow money. It would be strange if those people don't ask you for more than double the interest. Don't think about it."

With a gentle smile, "Some are always stupid."

Yun Chu smiled and said: "It's useless if it's too small, and you can't afford it if you have too much, and there will be endless troubles."

She smiled gently: "I have no intention of paying it back."

Yun Chu carefully looked up and down and said softly: "The golden cicada escapes its shell, or close the door and beat the dog?"

Gentlely said: "Closing the door and beating the dog, I don't have the courage to burn everything together, it's better for the golden cicada to get out of its shell."

"After the golden cicada sheds its shell, what kind of bug will you, the county magistrate, become?"

Wenrou chuckled and said, "The Censor Yanguan is the person they dislike the most."

"So, you want to take advantage of the peak of Hu merchants' success in trading and sell Chang'an County?"

Gentlely shook his head and said: "The taxes in Chang'an County belong to Datang, no one can take them away, and the people in Chang'an County also belong to Datang, no one can drag the daughters of the people's families away to pay off the debts, the officials in Chang'an County are big Officials of the Tang Dynasty, they can't use it to question the crimes. As for me, I am also an official of the Tang Dynasty. The debt was spent in the Tang Dynasty, but I didn't put it in my pocket. After the county magistrate, the debt owed by the county magistrate of Chang'an County is none of my business. They can only go to the next county magistrate of Chang'an County.

What do you think of this solution? "

Yun Chu smiled and said: "It's good, but your reputation is ruined from now on, and your son will never want to marry a daughter from a good family."

Gentle and heroic waved his hand and said: "You go and do your work, my son will just marry Yun Jin in the future, does it mean that your daughter is not the daughter of a good family?

Besides, if I don't make myself look like gods and ghosts, how can His Majesty be willing to give me a certain part of the East and West Pavilion? "

Yun Chu sighed and said, "You have to think about it."

Gentlely shook her head and said: "Never think badly, there are always pros and cons to weigh, the only difference is whether to do it or not to do it, this time the money disaster is coming again, if I can't get rid of the big flood brought by this wave of money disaster If I stay in this big pit in Chang'an County, I will not be their gentleness."

Yun Chu glanced at Wen Rou's crotch, and couldn't help but admire: "Sure enough, he is the gentle lord who is known as Nantian Yizhu."

Gentle said again: "There is no way, the development of Chang'an County is not as good as that of Wannian County, it is no longer possible to catch up with hard work.

I had no choice but to take a shortcut and make a side trip. When you take charge of Chang'an City, at least there will be a well-developed Chang'an City for you to use. "

Yunchu felt sore when he heard it, but waved to Wenrou with a smile on his face, and left Wannian County.

He knew that Rourou came here this time not to discuss with him, but to inform him. He is a proud man. Even though Yunchu is his close friend, he still thinks that he is the most powerful man in the world. , let alone accept Yunchu's protection, on the contrary, he still has to soar freely in his own sky in order to be regarded as a hero of the generation.

Why do things go up in price?

It is because there is more money and less things.

How can we prevent things from continuing to rise in price and allow the little money in the hands of the people to maintain a certain purchasing power?
Answer: Let there not be too much money in the market, and let the amount of money be basically equal to the value of materials.

How can we keep these extra money immobile?
Answer: Rourou is going to borrow in the name of Chang'an County to expand Chang'an County, develop Chang'an County, let the money become roads, city walls, water conservancy facilities, medical centers, schools, Pingzhun Pharmacy and other public facilities that cannot be sold, and then use Chang'an County In the name of the debt, the money owed is not repaid.

As for whether this kind of debt will bring down a few wealthy families, Gentle doesn't care, Yun Chu doesn't care, because the emperor doesn't care about it [-]% of the time.

Of course, if you want to renege on the debt as a matter of course, there must be a middleman in the middle. This middleman must be a very credible person, and his future fate will definitely be death.

Yun Chu believed that Rourou had already found this middleman, and Di Renjie was very experienced in this regard.
