Daming: Old Zhu, we agreed not to rush!

Chapter 339 Three Strategies for Economic Development
Not necessarily decades or centuries.

Su Jing's words directly silenced Zhu Biao.

He understood the general content of today's course, mainly about the advantages and disadvantages of banknotes.

In the final analysis, the issuance of banknotes should be matched with the development of the economy.

Based on Zhu Biao's understanding of Su Jing's words, the current Ming economy is still too weak, so it is not suitable to issue banknotes at this stage.

As the crown prince and deeply taught by Su Jing, Zhu Biao knew very well the importance of economic development to Ming Dynasty.

He also always felt that Daming's economy could take off rapidly.

However, now Su Jing gave a heavy hammer.

Zhu Biao was silent, his younger brothers were not entangled in this point, they were still trying what Su Jing called 'financial products'.

After all, it is a new concept, and it is relatively vague. It is still difficult to understand.

"Mr. Su's knowledge of ancient and modern times is really admirable. Maybe it will be many years before I can truly understand the content of this class."

Zhu Yan expressed his feelings.

The more he reads, the more he can see his own shortcomings. Now Zhu Bing is completely conquered by Su Jing, and he has restrained his arrogance of a scholar in his heart.

Zhu Di said: "The way of business is infinitely wise. I am afraid that I will not be able to understand the essence of it in this life."

Zhu Xi said: "Please also ask Mr. Su to teach me more in the future. I am quite interested in this matter of money. However, my own talents are limited. I only hope that I can learn one or two tenths of what Mr. Su is enough for."

The current Zhu Yu has already identified his own position, and it is right to make more achievements in business.

In terms of reading and erudition, he is not as good as Jin Wang Zhu Yan, and in terms of military and political strategy leading troops to fight, he is not as good as Yan Wang Zhu Di.

He is not as good as King Zhu of Wu in terms of quick thinking, wisdom and wisdom, and he is far from Prince Zhu Biao in terms of virtue and character.

Now Zhu Xi, the only one who can overtake in a curve is the business that many people don't like.

Under Su Jing's teaching, Zhu Xi deeply realized that doing business can also accomplish great things.

Su Jing looked at a few people, but didn't say anything, it was just a reflection after class, it's hard to tell if it's true or not.

Outside the study, Lao Zhu's face was not very good-looking: "It's been a long time since I said it, but it can't be published now, it's a lot of nonsense!"

Originally thinking that he could hear something that would solve Ming's financial problems now, Lao Zhu had been eavesdropping patiently outside the door, but he didn't expect to get such an answer.

Zhu Yuanzhang only felt that his efforts were completely wasted.

Liu Bowen said: "Your Majesty, I feel that what Mr. Su said today has quite far-reaching significance for Daming."

"As Mr. Su said, the economic development of Ming Dynasty may take off in a few decades, or it may not reach the standard of paper currency issuance in hundreds of years."

"The key to all this should be Mr. Su. If Mr. Su can show his talents, this day may come earlier."

Liu Bowen looked farther than people like Zhu Biao. Paper money was just a symbol of economic development. The real core was whether Ming's economy could develop.

The economic base determines the superstructure, and only with the economic base can there be a basis for all changes.

Changes in social forms are also closely related to the economy.

Because the economy will not develop out of thin air, the improvement of productivity will promote economic development.

In the final analysis, everything Su Jing said now refers to the new social forms that he and Liu Bowen once talked about.

"Berwin, you think Su Jing too highly."

Zhu Yuanzhang said something lightly, and didn't say anything more about this matter with Liu Bowen.

For a founding emperor like Lao Zhu, finances are a very important power.

If Su Jing does not enter the imperial court, then there is no possibility for him to control the lifeblood of Ming Dynasty's economy.

Lao Zhu will not let Su Jing imagine, at least for the time being, he will not allow Su Jing to implement and realize it.

"I understand."

Liu Bowen nodded, this is enough.

"Okay, that's all for today's class. There are a lot of things, and you need to digest them carefully."

Su Jing said to Zhu Biao and the others.

"Thank you Master Su (Mr.) for teaching!" x5
Zhu Biao and the others immediately stood up and saluted Su Jing.

Su Jing waved his hand and said: "It doesn't have to be like this, I just talked about it casually, by the way, I will give you a question after class, you can go back and think about it."

"Before I talked about the four development stages of currency, the fourth stage is paper money, my question is, what is the fifth stage after paper money?"

From barter to bullion to coinage and then paper money.

The history of currency development is actually a manifestation of the changes in the history of human economic development.

"Okay, that's it, I'll go out to take a breath first."

After speaking, Su Jing came directly to the door of the study, and opened the door of the study.

"Your Majesty? Sincerity?"

Su Jing saw Zhu Yuanzhang and Liu Bowen who were walking hurriedly with their backs turned to him, and he shouted directly.

"Cough cough."

Zhu Yuanzhang turned around with a stiff face and said: "Su Jing, I came to see the prince, coincidentally, you are here too."

As an emperor, he may not have professional training in acting skills, but it's okay to hold back his expressions.

Liu Bowen on the side said: "Mr. Su, I was also called by His Majesty to come to see His Highness the Crown Prince."

With the two monarchs and ministers, it seems that there is no silver 300 taels here.

"My son pays homage to his father!" x5
At this moment, Zhu Biao and the others also walked to the door of the study, and when they saw Zhu Yuanzhang, they immediately knelt down and saluted.

Zhu Yuanzhang immediately said: "Okay, get up, you just finished class, go back and digest well, you don't need to stay here."

"Yes, Father!" X5
The five people immediately got up and retreated, and they also understood that the next thing was beyond their control.

When the person left, Old Zhu looked at Su Jing and said: "Su Jing, I just came here to take a look, don't think too much about it."

Su Jing said with a smile: "Your Majesty doesn't need to explain, Su Jing understands, but I see that sincerity is also there, does Your Majesty have any doubts?"

"Mr. Su, that's it. Just now, His Majesty and I were outside the study..."

"Cough cough!"

Liu Bowen was about to talk to Su Jing, but was interrupted by Zhu Yuanzhang's coughing.

Let's take a casual look at what I said just now, and Liu Bowen is now directly talking about what he eavesdropped outside the study just now. Isn't this exposing himself?

"The minister is talking too much."

Liu Bowen bowed his head immediately.

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand: "It's nothing, but since Bowen mentioned it, I also want to ask you, Su Jing, do you think Daming really can't issue banknotes?"

Liu Bowen still understands Zhu Yuanzhang, he didn't talk too much just now, but did it on purpose.

It is to give Lao Zhu a step, so that he can ask what he wants to ask in a logical manner.

This cooperation can only be said to be quite skillful.

Su Jing replied: "Your Majesty, what I just said is very clear, it is not suitable for Ming Dynasty to issue banknotes now."

Zhu Yuanzhang's complexion changed slightly, and he said, "You said it might not be suitable for hundreds of years, so what's the difference between that and not being able to issue it?"

"Your Majesty said that, when Daming can issue banknotes, it depends on you."

Su Jing immediately said.

"Why are you related to me again?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was taken aback for a moment.

Su Jing said indifferently: "It seems that Your Majesty's memory is not very good. When we first met in Lishui County, Mr. Sincerity was there. Didn't I tell Your Majesty a story about the gang of beggars and the emperor?"

"Whether Daming can issue banknotes now, isn't that the same reason?"

Zhu Yuanzhang recalled it for a while, but he had a lot of daily affairs. The first meeting with Su Jing was almost a year ago, so he really couldn't remember it.

"Is there such a thing?"

Old Zhu frowned.

"Your Majesty, what Mr. Su means is that whether banknotes can be issued depends on the level of economic development of Ming Dynasty, and the level of economic development of Daming is determined by His Majesty, so whether banknotes can be issued depends on His Majesty."

Liu Bowen helped Zhu Yuanzhang explain.

After listening to Liu Bowen's words, Zhu Yuanzhang still didn't remember, but he understood what Su Jing meant.

"Su Jing, don't fool me. It's good that I'm the emperor, but I can't decide what the economic development of Ming Dynasty will be like."

Zhu Yuanzhang said directly.

Lao Zhu is very domineering, but he is not arrogant and domineering.

On the contrary, he has a very clear understanding of his own abilities.

The capable soldiers and generals under him are also used a lot, and they are usually willing to delegate power to their subordinates for matters that they are not familiar with.

Of course, mainly during the stage of the uprising, Lao Zhu still trusted his subordinates quite a lot.

When it comes to making money, Zhu Yuanzhang knows very well that he has no talent in this area.

Su Jing was slightly taken aback, he really had never seen such an old Zhu in the history books.

"Your Majesty, you are a sage king of a generation. Su Jing believes that under your leadership, Daming will surely reach glory step by step!"

Su Jing didn't care about 21, and just flattered him.

After all, they were not alone at this time, there was also Liu Bowen, and Lao Zhu should be given the face.

Zhu Yuanzhang's complexion changed slightly, and he paused and said: "Su Jing, you don't have to say that, Da Ming was founded by me, so I will try my best to govern Da Ming well. This economic matter is indeed not my forte."

Su Jing said again: "Your Majesty, you are humble. Such a great achievement in creating the Ming Dynasty is already rare in the world, and no one is omnipotent, but Su Jing believes that with your majesty's intelligence, even if you are not good at it, you can still quickly learned and mastered."

This series of flattery, although very blunt, but flattery is flattery after all, Lao Zhu was quite happy to hear that.

Su Jing's praise is not so easy to hear on weekdays.

This made Liu Bowen on the side a bit at a loss. In his heart, Su Jing was far from the current image of flattering.

Liu Bowen even doubted whether he had seen hallucinations.

Su Jing is so talented, and now he is like a courtier who only cares about saying good things.

"All right, all right, Su Jing, let's stop here. I still want to ask you, Daming's treasury is not abundant, and it's financially difficult. Do you have any solutions?"

Zhu Yuanzhang brought the topic back to the original route, Ming's financial problems.

Lao Zhu will definitely not issue the Daming banknotes now.

However, Daming's financial shortage problem will not disappear, and some methods are still needed to solve it.

Su Jing said: "Your Majesty, how can I, a small businessman, be able to solve the major financial issues of the country? Even if I sell all my properties in Lishui County to fill the national treasury, I'm afraid it's just a drop in the bucket. Your Majesty is really embarrassing me."

Although Su Jing was the president of a listed company in her previous life, she has a rich fortune and a high level of business.

But what Lao Zhu is asking now is a financial issue of the entire Ming Dynasty.

The difference in size between a company and a country is not 01:30.

In this matter, Su Jing is still very self-aware.

Just now in class, you can brag casually, but now you are telling Zhu Yuanzhang, you have to be more restrained.

"Berwin, what do you think?"

Zhu Yuanzhang turned his head and asked Liu Bowen directly.

Liu Bowen immediately replied: "Your Majesty, I think that Mr. Su is too modest. Just now, Mr. Su taught His Royal Highness the course. I think that if it can be used in Daming, it will definitely make Daming's economy develop rapidly."

It's not that Liu Bowen dragged Su Jing into the water on purpose, but Zhu Yuanzhang just heard it from beginning to end.

If Liu Bowen talked nonsense with his eyes open, he would look down on Zhu Yuanzhang too much.

"Su Jing, you heard me, I hope you will stop being humble."

Zhu Yuanzhang turned his head to look at Su Jing, and said lightly.

Su Jing thought for a while, and said: "Your Majesty, if you really want to know, I have a solution, but the methods are divided into three strategies. I don't know which one your Majesty wants?"

Up, middle and down three strategies?
Lao Zhu's eyes widened in an instant, and he looked at Su Jing and said, "Su Jing, is this what you and I said you can't do anything about? There are three strategies? Are you playing with me?"

While speaking, Lao Zhu's anger was already rising a little bit.

At the beginning, he said there was no way, but now he directly pulled out the three strategies of top, middle and bottom, so that he would not be too angry if he left someone alone.

Liu Bowen on the side hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I think it's better to listen to what Mr. Su has to say first."

Among the three people present, Liu Bowen was the most frightened.

Su Jing's attitude was beyond Liu Bowen's imagination.

At one moment, he felt that Su Jing was a flattering courtier, and at another moment, he felt that Su Jing didn't seem to care about the emperor Zhu Yuanzhang's temper at all.

Su Jing said: "Your Majesty, after listening to it, you will know why I said there was no way at first."

"If you have something to say, hurry up and let your fart go!"

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his face directly.

Su Jing said: "Is this the best policy? Your Majesty will work hard to rule the country. The people will live and work in peace and contentment. The policies will gradually be relaxed. All walks of life in Ming Dynasty will flourish, and the economy will naturally improve. This is the kingly way. Although the speed is not fast, it is stable."

"The central policy is to stimulate people's livelihood and business, and open up commercial routes, including restarting the Silk Road, maritime commercial transportation, etc., with the imperial court as the foundation, directly participate in business, and gather all the officials of the Ming Dynasty. Among them. In this way, a huge sum of money can be raised, and if there is more money, it will naturally generate money.”

"As for the next strategy, it is to counterattack the Japanese pirates and capture the Japanese country!"
