The legend of the king of crossing

Chapter 103

Seeing that everyone was silent, I went on to say: "About land ownership, in simple terms, the two modes of state-owned and private ownership have coexisted for a long time, and the proportion of the two is finally determined by the free market. I went on to say the first The second point is the land use system, which is an integral part of the land property system, which stipulates the procedures, means, and methods for farmers to use the land. The land planning system is to stipulate the development and use of land in a planned way, such as To limit deforestation and land reclamation, we cannot increase farmland endlessly at the expense of the environment.” When I said this, I suddenly thought of urban land planning, and changed the topic, “Urban planning should also be brought up on the agenda, Xiaoqi. Said friends will wait for the order at the court meeting tomorrow."

"Yes, I will send someone to pass the decree immediately."

Then I explained the specific meaning of land protection system, land expropriation system, land taxation system, land management system, and land supporting system.I finished it all in one breath, seeing that the people here couldn't fully understand it for a while. It is indeed not easy to fully understand this series of systems.I drank a big sip of tea, moistened my throat and said, "The land system is not a small project. It will take at least three to five years to take effect. It involves the foundation of our dynasty's agriculture, and all ministries need the assistance of the Ministry of Industry. Tom Han."

"The minister is here."

"Re-plan the water conservancy construction in various places to ensure the irrigation of farmland during droughts and floods, and improve farm tools, such as curved hoes for weeding, iron rakes for crushing and dredging soil, and iron shares installed on columbine carts. The used keel overturns, etc., and I will also let the soon-to-be-established Lin'an University use tool improvement as a research project to achieve the purpose of improving productivity."

"The minister obeys the order."

"The Land Division of the Ministry of Commerce should establish branches in various places as soon as possible to lay a solid foundation for national land measurement. In addition, support and encourage agricultural areas with surplus labor to develop handicrafts and commerce."

"The minister Jiang Wanli, the minister Liao Yingzhong obeys the order."

"The task of the Ministry of Households is to urge refugees from all over the country to enter households, re-approve land taxes, introduce high-yield crops, expand crop varieties, and formulate policies to reward births, so as to restore the population of our dynasty."

"Minister Ma Guangzu complies with the order."

"The Ministry of Rites redefines the population and household registration, improves the status of tenant farmers in our dynasty, and registers according to their place of origin. It is collectively called agricultural household registration, and its status is equivalent to urban household registration. In addition, in addition to prohibited goods, expand trade with overseas, In order to increase the tariff revenue of our dynasty."

Ma Tingluan thought for a while, and finally said: "My minister Ma Tingluan obeys the order."

"The Ministry of Punishment, issue all supporting laws to ensure the implementation of land reform."

"Chen Zongli complies with the order."

"Other departments are also stepping up to complete supporting policies. In addition, in order to improve the efficiency of land reform, I plan to establish an eighth department, the Ministry of Agriculture, with Zhao Kui, the royal family member Lu Guogong, as the minister, and Chen Yizhong as the minister. Everyone, I emphasize again, I The DPRK must recover its vitality in the next two to three years, otherwise it will definitely not be an enemy of Mongolia. This reform will first start with the rural land reform, and then slowly extend to all walks of life and towns. This move is related to the great cause of the rejuvenation of our dynasty Do yourself a favor, everyone."

"The ministers should do their best."

Jia Sidao and Liao Yingzhong looked at each other. Although they didn't fully understand my approach to land reform and opposed the establishment of the Ministry of Agriculture, Jia and Liao naturally knew that the more departments were divided, the more power would be dispersed. But seeing me It is clear and logical, and cannot be refuted for a while.

Jia Sidao thought to himself, this Zhao Yu is indeed too deep in the city, the prince Zhao Yu and the emperor Zhao Yu are not the same person at all, especially after the vision from heaven, he even felt a little fear of him.Fortunately, Zhao Yu seems to have always been afraid of Mongolia. It seems that I can only make a fuss about it.

"Teacher."

"Ah, Your Majesty." My voice recalled Jia Sidao's fugue.

"I heard that my teachers and ministers have been devoting so much effort to the development of our dynasty's economy recently. I don't know what good strategy they have come up with?"

Jia Sidao was taken aback, I don't know why I asked such a question, and he cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that the current currency in our court is in chaos. In order to repurchase public land for five years, a large number of huizi banknotes will be issued, which will cause the huizi to continue to depreciate. This is one, and there is another thing. When the old minister was implementing the public land law, he found that many farmers wanted to rent the official land of the imperial court, especially the refugees, but they generally lacked funds in their hands, so that they could not afford to rent. The old minister was anxious about these two things , I wonder what countermeasures His Majesty has?"

"Masters and ministers are worthy of being the pillars of the imperial court. They can see at a glance the primary problem that hinders our economic development." I secretly praised, this guy is not useless, but I don't know if it is his own idea or the suggestion of his staff?

I didn't answer directly, looked at Liao Yingzhong, and said to Wen Tianxiang: "Wen Aiqing, I know that you were an official in Ruizhou before, how did you do it?"

Wen Tianxiang replied: "Your Majesty, when I was in Ruizhou just when the war ended, I raised funds and established a convenience bank. This convenience bank has two major functions. One is to provide loans for people in need; The cost is to purchase crop seeds in large quantities and sell them to farmers at a fair price."

"Well, very good. Master, I am also thinking about what you are worried about. It was not until last night that I found a good plan in my dream."

"In a dream?" Jia Sidao blurted out, not only Jia Sidao, but also the rest of the people thought of the late emperor's dream.

"Yes, many of my ideas come from dreams."

Most of the people here are bewildered, but if it doesn't come from a dream, how can it be explained?I smiled and continued: "My dear friends, you all know Qianzhuang, right?"

"Your Majesty, all the ministers know."

"Silver is the first currency in circulation in our dynasty, so I plan to establish the Royal Silver Village of the Great Song Dynasty. The silver village is owned by the state. Its main functions are as follows. First, establish an independent and unified currency system and cancel the current currency in time. The Jiaozihuizi copper coins and silver in circulation will use the Dasong paper money uniformly, and gradually transition to the Dasong paper money to become the only standard currency in circulation in our dynasty. In order to avoid the devaluation of the paper money, Yinzhuang will issue it based on the gold and silver stored in it. The issuance plan of banknotes must be approved by the imperial court, and it is not allowed to be issued indiscriminately; the second is to quickly establish branches and form a national bank system, which spreads throughout our dynasty; the third is to implement national unified currency management, and all private banks must comply with the regulations of the Song Dynasty ; The fourth is to carry out deposits and withdrawals for the common people, lending and lending business, and pay interest and receive interest respectively; Fifth, restore the function of commercial credit bills in the early days of Jiaozi to meet the transactions of large amounts; Sixth, adjust prices through the amount of money issued Of course, there are many things I didn’t think of, and I will add them slowly. In this way, the two major problems that the teachers and ministers are worried about can be satisfactorily resolved.”

The earliest banking industry originated from the currency exchange industry in the ancient society of Western Europe.At first, money changers only exchanged currency for merchants, and later developed to keep currency for merchants, receive and pay cash, handle settlement and remittance, but do not pay interest, and charge storage and handling fees.With the development of industry and commerce, the business of money changers further developed, and they accumulated a large amount of capital in their hands.The money changer industry developed into a bank when money changers, in order to make more profits, used the money they accumulated to make loans at interest.

The Babylonian temples in 2000 BC, the Greek temples in 500 BC, and the private banks in our country all have institutions that operate and store gold and silver, collect and pay interest, and issue loans.Modern banks originated in Italy in the Middle Ages. Due to its special geographical location, Venice became a trade center at that time. In 1171, the Bank of Venice was established, which is the earliest bank in the world.jerry.Polo also confirmed the existence of the Bank of Venice. Although it is not as fully functional as the banks of later generations, it has fully adapted to the social needs of the time.

"Your Majesty, what should we do with the original Jiaozi Huizi and the silver and copper coins?" Ma Tingluan asked cautiously.

"All of them can be exchanged for the new Dasong banknotes. Huizi and other currencies will stop being used after a period of time in parallel with the Dasong banknotes. I plan to spend three months to prepare, May, leap in May, and June for the preparation Until July [-]th, the Dasong Yinzhuang will be formally established to manage the currency of our dynasty."

"Which department does Yinzhuang belong to?" Jiang Wanli asked.

"Independent of the ministries, directly responsible to me."

"Why is this Zhao Yu so greedy for money?" Jia Sidao thought to himself, but his expression remained the same, "Your Majesty, who is in charge of this Yinzhuang?"

"Is there any suitable person recommended by the teacher?"

"Well, not for the time being, Mr. Rong will think about it after he goes back."

"Okay, I will think about it carefully, and I will make a decision in two or three days."

"The emperor is slowly splitting up the power of the various ministries. Is this aimed at all the ministers, or only at the grand master? However, the emperor is indeed a genius, with everything in his chest, and his words are often unimaginable. I am far inferior to him." Also." Liao Ying secretly thought in the center, do you want to persuade your lord to give up the original idea and assist the emperor instead?But when he thought of what Jia Sidao said, there was no turning back when he opened the bow, he suddenly became uneasy and worried about Jia Sidao.

"Your Majesty, Song Chengzu, who was sent to Jinhua to investigate the case, has returned and is waiting outside the palace to be summoned by His Majesty." Chen Zongli, Shangshu of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, said at the end of the meeting.

"Xiaoqi, it is said that Song Chengzu will meet me in the imperial study."
