The Ming Dynasty’s Prodigal Son

Emperor Hongzhi's heart ... it hurts.

How many 30 million two-grain silver in life?

Just for this?

This thing is made of gold, and it won't take so much.

In the past few years, the emperor Hongzhi has saved 30 million RMB.

As for the income of the national treasury, it is even more miserable. The tax and silver are pitiful, more than three million two a year, and the Manchu and Wenwu are now thinking about the internal money. The countrymen don't understand the law, your majesty you have money, you pay.

Originally guarding his silver every day, Emperor Hongzhi was exhausted.

Unexpectedly, these two guys, such a thing, is 30 million two.

Of course, Emperor Hongzhi felt that this thing might be of great use, and the ingenious structure is really clever, and it is rare in the world.

but……

But at this time, Fang Jifan mentioned the old city, which made him confused.

Fang Jifan said with a smile: "I don't hide from your majesty, your sons and princes have been shorting the land of the old city for more than a year. Land, make huge purchases, cough ... Your majesty, do you understand? "

"I don't understand!"

Emperor Hongzhi was annoyed.

Fang Jifan was stunned, lying in the trough, His Majesty's IQ, it is very limited, such a simple truth, I did not understand.

Fang Jifan coughed and looked squeezed: "Your Majesty, why did the price of the old city plunge? This is because the old city is far away from Daming Palace. For many government gates, it is really far away. For more than forty miles, if you walk or take a sedan chair, back and forth I am afraid it will take a whole day. Even if it is a carriage, the congestion on this road will take two or three hours back and forth, and halfway, who knows what will happen. But now it is different, just go to the station and get on the bus at any time. In half an hour, I went to the new city, which was meaningless to many princes and nobles. But ... how about countless craftsmen and ordinary people? "

The emperor Hongzhi was angry, but he still listened to Fang Jifan patiently.

What Fang Jifan said was that the Emperor Hongzhi was taken aback.

At this time, Fang Jifan said again: "They are ordinary people. Your Majesty, if you think about it, the land price of this new city is too high. How many poor Beijing officials, artisans, and ordinary people can buy property. They ca n’t afford it, but they live in the old city, and they are too far away to work in the new city, so they can get a lot of salary. Does your majesty have the patience to let them have no room to live? A station will build a large number of markets, and at the same time, a large number of houses will be built nearby. These houses, although there is no courtyard, are three or five floors high, a house, which is only a few dozen square meters, can be better than the low price. One acre of land can be given to thirty or fifty households, this house, how much money do you guess? Your Majesty ... "

When it comes to this, Fang Jifan is very excited: "Your Majesty, you only need five hundred and two silvers, such a good location, only five hundred two silvers, this is still close to the railway line, you can turn to the new city when you go out, and then enter The surrounding area is a good place for the prosperous area of ​​the old city. "

"Not only that, the ministers have long gone by. Many craftsmen can earn thirty-two or two silvers a year. If these silvers are saved, they can save at least twenty-two. If there is a mother-in-law in the textile workshop Work in here, there are twenty-two silver, and in a year, the balance of forty-two silver, there are many small merchants, many poor officials, it may take ten years to save a house, he decided to use Xishan Money bank, give them low-interest loans, the purpose is to make everyone have a room to live, so that they only need to pay down 52 grains of silver, they can move in, repay the loan every month, but only two or three Two silvers, ten or twenty years from now, this house can be used for a lifetime. "

Emperor Hongzhi: "..."

He couldn't help but say: "In this way, you can sell two or thirty thousand or two silver in the old city for an acre of land."

"This is not the same." Fang Jifan said confidently and smiled: "This is not an ordinary place, this is along the railway line, to enjoy the prosperity and enjoy the tranquility, can be a whole family, reunion. What's more These three-five-floor residences also require costs. The minister has to set up a market on the side, sell some shops, plan Mongolian studies, and set up a theater to allow ordinary people to enjoy the convenience and convenience of the new city. bustling."

Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but took a breath of cold air and said, "How much silver did you collect in these lands?"

Fang Jifan twisted and said: "Two hundred and thirty-one acres."

The emperor Hongzhi immediately started to count, and said, "How much did you and the prince buy?"

Fang Jifan coughed: "A hundred thousand mu ..."

Emperor Hongzhi: "..."

Fang Jifan coughed: "Your Majesty, you can't just look at the profit, you have to look at the investment. If you want to transform the old city, the investment is amazing, not to mention the railway, and there are a lot of groundbreaking ... You need to recruit countless artisans In fact, His Highness Prince and Crown Prince have been under great pressure. Xishan Jianye has hundreds of thousands of people to feed. Without work, there is no salary. Without salary, countless people will be hungry. Are they hungry? If you become a refugee under the feet of the emperor, if you get into trouble, neither your son nor your prince can afford it. "

Upon hearing this, Emperor Hongzhi stretched his face and looked calm.

This is indeed a very serious matter. Ordinary refugees are not enough. If hundreds of thousands of people are hungry and still at the feet of the emperor, it will really shake the world.

Fang Jifan said again: "And the children and the Crown Prince have already calculated that the reconstruction of the old city, the laying of railroad tracks in the future, and the construction of the new city, the future labor required, from the workshop to the road to the mansion And the countless woodware, lacquerware, heating supply, coal mining, logging, mining, etc. that will be driven in the future ... can also provide hundreds of thousands of people with a large number of jobs. The problems of your Majesty and Daming refugees can be solved at one time. And these people, with their salaries, must also have clothing, food, shelter, transportation, and great prosperity in business. The actions of his sons and princes are all for Daming, for the Jiji, for countless ... food and clothing, hungry people. . "

Two phases are less harmful.

You said that Fang Jifan pitted people and used the opportunity of old city transformation to earn money, but in fact, how many people can't cover their bodies and eat food, and the people who should have starved to death benefited from it?

Emperor Hongzhi looked cautiously and narrowed his eyes: "So, will the land price of the old city rise?"

"Yes!" Fang Jifan stared at Hongzhi Emperor: "It may be more than ten times higher!"

Emperor Hongzhi suddenly took a breath of breath and said: "I am in the old city, and there is still a lot of land, right, such as the Forbidden City, and ... many old government halls ... along the railway, it seems that there is still There are some emperors. "

"Yes." Fang Jifan said with a smile: "Your Majesty is really holy."

Emperor Hongzhi was too lazy to listen to Fang Jifan's polite words, and his heart was alive, and he couldn't help being excited, and his face was red.

Can't help but say: "So, can the 30 million or two silvers for the railway construction be easily recovered?"

Fang Jifan said with a smile: "Not only can it be easily recovered, not only can it provide jobs for countless people, but also, Xishan Jianye, with such a large sum of money, will continue to break through a large number of railways. His sons and princes think about it Next, in Xishan, there will also be a railroad. The anthracite coal in Xishan and countless goods can all arrive in the new city endlessly to supply the new city. You can even reach the pier of the old city and pass the canal. Transporting all parts of the world. In the future, there will be more and more railways. In this world, there is nothing that cannot be done without money. As long as there is money, even if it is to build a railway to Liaodong, so, as long as your majesty orders, just In three days, within three days, there will be countless trains transporting a large amount of food and weapons, and tens of thousands of military horses, which can reach Liaodong, any alien, or there are chaos, dare to move around, the court can be in Within ten days, mobilize all the forces to annihilate it! "

original……

The railway is so useful.

Thinking about this, Emperor Hongzhi began to startle.

In this era, transportation is very difficult.

It takes a lot of manpower, and manpower means countless losses. If a pound of grain is transported from Jingshi to Liaodong, most of the losses on the road have already gone to half. What if it is rail transportation? As long as there are dozens of people, within half a month, the piles of grain can be sent directly to the army of Liaodong without loss.

Not only that, the gathering of the army, this time can be reduced countless times.

There is also the transportation of manpower and the transportation of goods. Isn't this a more sharp artery than the Grand Canal, so it appeared out of thin air.

As for the silver ... This kind of difficult thing is very big before the emperor ~ www.readwn.com ~ It seems that it has become a small thing in Fang Jifan's mouth.

As he said, the transformation of the old city can obtain a large amount of silver through the land. These silvers are, to a certain extent, some kind of original capital accumulation inside.

For a huge empire like Daming, it is almost impossible to complete the accumulation of primitive capital by external looting. It is completely impossible. After all, a hundred poor eggs looting and squeezing 10,000 people are enough to make one person. Wealthy wealth, the remaining 99 people, living conditions have been improved. But one million people, to plunder and squeeze 10,000 people ... This ... is a little embarrassing, the result of mobilizing the teachers may be to make ends meet.

But this Fang Jifan ...

Emperor Hongzhi got up and couldn't help walking to the car wall. His hand gently rubbed against the car wall. The vibration of the train was transmitted to his palm through the car wall.

He turned around and said an intriguing sentence: "Is this car really made by a prince?"
