A great man of the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 1,600 Tang Ren teaches the emperor and his ministers a lesson

"Who can take care of Da Song's money bag, Sansi or Qianzhuang?"

Zhao Shu raised such a question.

Han Jiang glanced at Zhao Xu and said, "I will rectify the third division when I get back. I promise..."

When he saw Zhao Shu's expression, he suddenly became discouraged.

The officials' eyes were clearly full of satisfaction.

Separating the financial power from the three departments is in line with the official checks and balances requirements.

Han Qi knew this very well. He first secretly scolded Shen An for his cunning, and then went out and said: "Your Majesty, I think this matter is feasible, but what should the bank do? We still have to ask and check carefully."

Zhao Shu nodded, "Tang Ren is outside, let him come in."

The officials have recruited Tang Ren, which shows that they have a secret promise in their hearts.

Tang Ren came in and said habitually: "I can't help but feel relaxed and happy when I see the officials in high spirits today..."

"Cough, cough, cough!" Chen Zhongheng felt that this flattery was too outrageous, and he had a sycophantic attitude, so he interrupted with a dry cough.

Zhao Shu felt really relaxed and happy after hearing this. After being interrupted, he suppressed his regret and said calmly: "Do you know Shen An's advice?"

"The minister will know." Tang Ren replied honestly.

"Did he tell you about this in advance?"

If it is said in advance, it will be suspected of being operated in private, which is a taboo.

Tang Ren looked surprised, "Your Majesty, I haven't seen him since he returned from Shen Longtu. That day he came over with a large amount of copper coins. I was about to congratulate him for his great achievements in the northwest. Unexpectedly, Shen Longtu turned around. When I left, I was still wondering why I was so disgusted by Shen Longtu."

Han Jiang's face was ashen and he said coldly: "That's it!"

Tang Ren's casual words were connected by Han Jiang, and the context of the matter became clear immediately.

There were all smart people present, and one person suddenly understood, and then everyone understood.

He and Shen An came back from the northwest and have been planning this since he broke the legs of those dudes.

Poor Han Jiang and Sansi were buried in this big hole he dug.

Facing those sympathetic eyes, Han Jiang almost spat out blood.

But the king hid in the secret and suddenly took action, catching him off guard.

The two young people joined forces to completely defeat the chance of the three divisions.

Zhao Shu was very satisfied and felt that this was a sign of Shen An's sense of propriety, "If the Song Dynasty's financial expenditure is placed in a bank, what do you think we should do?"

"Why?" Tang Ren's first reaction was not what to do, but that this matter was a fantasy.

Zhao Shu was more satisfied and said calmly: "Just say it."

Tang Ren glanced at Han Jiang, smiled flatteringly, and then said: "Your Majesty, I believe that the first thing to manage a country's finances is financial management. The Song Dynasty was a big country with prosperous commerce. Nowadays, there are even more fleets sailing away to bring them back. There are many rare treasures, how do these profits increase their value?”

"Value-added?" Zhao Shu asked: "Isn't it added value if stored in a bank?"

"Yes, the officials are wise." Tang Ren habitually patted him, "It was for this reason that Shen Longtu proposed to let the Third Division deposit money in a bank. However, there are many ways to increase value, such as investment, and overseas trade can make a lot of money. Businessmen If we can make a fortune, can we?”

"It is impossible for the DPRK and China to organize their own fleets to go to sea for trade. That would suppress the motivation of merchants to go to sea." Han Jiang immediately refuted Tang Ren's point of view.

"What Prime Minister Han said is true." Tang Ren still flattered him first, and then said: "But we can buy shares!"

Han Jiang felt something was broken in his mind, and he murmured: "Is Chao Zhong paying for a stake in a businessman?"

"Isn't it possible?" Tang Ren said puzzledly: "Those businessmen who go overseas don't have much capital, so they borrow money from loan sharks and invest money in the government without having to pay it back. They share the risks and benefits. Who wouldn't want to do that?"

He said proudly: "With his back against the big tree in the court, he still has to worry about who will make things difficult for him? Even overseas, if there are barbarians who want to embezzle and bully them, just say one sentence, this is the fleet of the Song Dynasty official family, Who dares to move? If you do, you will die!"

He said intoxicatedly: "The navy of the Song Dynasty is invincible in the world, who dares to touch it?"

This is what complements each other!

The Song Dynasty established a powerful navy, and this time it was rewarded.

Invest in business?

Zhao Shu thought of his own small treasury, but the royal family had already invested in Anxiang. Would it be too greedy to invest in overseas trade again?

This is the difference between the kings of China and the kings of other countries.

In the years to come, those kings greedily looked at the harvest brought by the fleet. Even if it was stained with blood, they still roared with ecstasy, and then invested money to spread the fleet all over the world, using killing to seize wealth. and land.

This is the jungle, so these tougher kings succeed.

But the Ming Emperor who was not ruthless enough failed.

"Your Majesty, in fact, the inner treasury can also be added." Tang Ren's words opened the fig leaf in the king's heart.

Zhao Shu neither refused nor agreed.

That's a good start.

Han Qi was also moved and asked, "Is there any other way?"

"Yes!" Tang Ren raised his eyebrows, "The Song Dynasty has wiped out the Western bandits. The only big enemy now is the Liao people. Which side those vassals will stand on is a question. The Liao people will threaten them. What will the Song Dynasty do?"

Han Qi said seriously: "The Song Dynasty is a country of etiquette, and threats are absolutely unacceptable."

Everyone couldn't help but think of the scene when Lao Han threatened envoys from other countries before, and they couldn't help but sigh that Zaifu was really thick-skinned.

"The Prime Minister of Han is wise." Tang Ren said with a smile: "That's right. But we have money! For example, Korea, their life was very difficult the year before last, but will the Liao people lend them money? No, the Liao people themselves have The poor can only wear a pair of pants when going out..."

"Ha ha ha ha!"

All the ministers couldn't help laughing.

The so-called wearing only one pair of trousers means that Liao people do not wear obscene trousers.

Just meet and talk to future generations, "Hey! They said you were idle when you were out?"

Tang Ren said: "What if the Song Dynasty lends a sum of money to Goryeo? If the interest is higher, they will still be grateful."

"Lending money to Gao Li?"

Han Qi frowned and thought for a while, "Isn't it inappropriate to borrow money between countries?"

There is little precedent for borrowing money between countries, so everyone feels it is not appropriate.

"Xiang Han, in the past, if we encountered a vassal country crying for poverty, we would send it directly, but sending it back and forth would not help, so I think we should make a clear distinction. What is sent is sent, and what is borrowed is borrowed."

Han Qi felt that he saw a miniature version of Shen An talking in the court. He couldn't help but feel a little dazed, and then asked: "What if I don't pay it back?"

"Don't pay back?" Tang Ren couldn't help but laugh, and even Zhao Shu thought of Shen An, "Xiang Han, the Song Dynasty army spends countless money and food every year. What is it used for? I think besides protecting the country and the people, this time That’s where they come in. If you don’t pay back the money… then they’ll knock on the door.”

Someone said dissatisfiedly: "Isn't it inappropriate to knock on your door just because you don't pay back your debt?"

"Isn't this turning the court into a business place?"

Everyone is like that... They are all gentlemen who have read poetry and books, and they have turned the relations between countries into business. This is extremely inappropriate!

Tang Ren suddenly said solemnly: "Profiting for the country, a low-ranking official feels the greatest honor!"

In an instant all the gentlemen were defeated.

This is not the middle and late Ming Dynasty, there are not many 'gentlemen' in the court, and they are not that shameless.

Zhao Shu praised: "What a good person to make profits for the country!"

At this moment, Tang Ren's image was extremely tall.

"What if they really can't make it?"

There are some conspiracy theories about this issue.

This is posing a problem for Tang Ren.

But he smiled and said: "That's simple. Since business can be done between countries, then there should be no restrictions on the goods that can be bought and sold, right? I thought... territory can also be bought and sold."

Zeng Gongliang was thinking about the affairs of the Third Division. Hearing these words, he couldn't help but be stunned. He subconsciously stretched out his hand to hold Han Qi's fat waist in front of him.

Han Qi thought he was going to take action, so he subconsciously stepped back.

Zeng Gongliang also pinched his fat waist skillfully.

Then the Prime Minister and the Deputy Prime Minister gasped.

"Buying and selling territory?"

"Can't you?" Tang Ren said: "There are two ways to open the border, one is to fight, the other is to buy money. For example, Goryeo..."

Gao Li has a grudge against you?

The monarchs and ministers all had black lines on their heads, thinking that if the Koreans knew what was said today, they would probably join hands with the Liao people.

"In a word, borrowing can be as small as a family or as big as a country. There is nothing that cannot be borrowed from, and there is no country that cannot be borrowed from. As long as the means are superb and money is used as a matchmaker, a country can be overthrown!"

Tang Ren raised his head slightly. At this moment, the flattery was gone, leaving only confidence.

Sure enough, he has real ability!

At this moment, Zhao Shu firmly remembered Tang Ren, "What about expenditures? There are so many things about the affairs of the Song Dynasty, and they are all inseparable from the word money. How about expenditures?"

This is the big test!

Wang Anshi glanced at Tang Ren and knew that if he passed the exam, he would become famous.

Once the banker can take over the money bag of the Song Dynasty, Tang Ren will be equivalent to Du Zhishi, and his power will be greater than Du Zhishi.

This kid is so lucky!

But when he thought about luck, he felt something was wrong.

Tang Ren was talking eloquently today, which shows that he is thinking about these things on weekdays. Such capable officials should be reused!

"The Minister of Expenditure believes that the first thing is to live within your means. How much is your annual income, how much you spend, and how much you can overspend... For example, if you have no money, but something big happens suddenly, what should you do? You can issue more banknotes, but the amount cannot be huge. Secondly, After the fiscal easing in two years, we quickly recovered all the money, so the banknotes are still strong..."

Zhao Shu looked at him and UUReading www.uukanshu.net suddenly laughed, "I actually got a financial expert today, hahahaha!"

Han Jiang thought about it carefully and felt that this was a wonderful statement.

But he refused to say.

What is the most important thing about Sansi?

Money bag!

Although Sansi, who lost his money bag, seemed huge, his influence was greatly reduced.

What will happen then...

I'm afraid it will all become a fantasy.

Everyone said that they could be indifferent to fame and fortune, and Han Jiang had always thought that she could.

But at this moment, he felt very lost.

"What you mean by this is that... you can eat Yin and Mao grain?"

This question was asked by Han Qi.
