Chapter 722 arrived

"On the one hand, salt farmers have low production prices and are frustrated in their enthusiasm; On the one hand, the government strictly controls sales, and the prices are high, but the income is actually not high. ”

"Let's give a simple example, now the purchase price of a catty of salt is 17 Wen, the price of the government is 35 Wen, the output is 100 catties, and the income of the government is only 1,800 Wen."

"But if the purchase price is raised to 20 wen and the selling price is reduced to 30 wen, but the output is 1,000 catties, the salt household will earn an extra 26 and 500 wen, and the government will earn an extra 26 and 500 wen."

"And the people have a sufficient supply of salt, not only can they buy more of it, but the price has also dropped."

"This is the fundamental way, the way of development, and the way of win-win."

Cai Jing's eyes listened quietly behind Su You, his eyes flickered, this, I'm afraid this is the purpose of Ming Gong bringing himself to the banquet. Let yourself understand his philosophy of governance.

Then I heard Su You say: "Your Majesty is merciful, as long as you can meet the number of lessons this year, the rest of the people are free to be ranked at their own leisure, this is a great opportunity to make money." ”

"Jinghu is newly opened, and Zhejiang Zhongyan can completely radiate the north and south roads of Jinghu Lake, together with the east and west roads of Guangnan. With such a large market, who will open it up? ”

All the gentry in the seat are terrified, and I rely on this handwriting, which is not an ordinary profit.

Su You raised his hand and signaled everyone to be quiet: "Shuzhong is now supplying Wangzhou, Dali, Minzhou, and local chemicals, which are already in short supply. ”

"So the Jinghu Roads, of course, can only fall on the shoulders of the ranks."

There was another commotion below.

Su You continued to interrupt everyone's enthusiasm: "But in order to better manage this part of the production capacity, the Liangzhejiang Road Transfer Division still has to intervene." ”

"At least this year, we have to follow the example of the salt introduction system in Jiezhou, so that the gentry who lose millet will have priority in applying for salt introduction according to the amount of grain they have lost!"

Qian Kejiu immediately gave his hand: "My Qian family has many children, and I am willing to offer 300,000 stones of rice for land to help Ming Gong and the people of Zhejiang and Zhejiang survive the disaster!" At the same time, the Qian family also has a lot of ships, and they can organize caravans to go to Jinghu to buy grain! ”

Yao Chun also gave his hand: "My Yao family is also willing to supply 300,000 stones, and we have to purchase spices from the southeast every year, and the rice there is cheap." If the Ming Gong is insufficient, the Yao family can also transport grain from Jiaozhi and Zhancheng! ”

The rest of the people were shocked, I had already 600,000 stones, almost one-third of the newly opened fertile land, and I made a fuss: "We also want to serve the court!" "We also want to help Ming Gong!"

The next banquet was full of coppery smell, and at Su You's insistence, the Hangzhou gentry were only allocated two-thirds of the share, and the remaining one-third, Su You had to take it to the tigers in Suzhou.

In any case, 1.8 million stone of grain, this is in hand.

This was supposed to be the income of the Sitong firm, but Su Youkong glove the white wolf, played a loan, and promised to exchange some of the new fields obtained from the water conservancy development in the upper reaches of Taihu Lake in exchange for benefits.

At the end of May, the machinery and equipment in Shuzhong arrived, and all preparations were ready. Jiangning Prefecture, Runzhou, and Changzhou gathered 70,000 servants to start a vigorous water conservancy improvement project in the upper reaches of Taihu Lake.

Countless grains, starting from Suzhou Mudu and Wujiang, transported to Changzhou, Yixing and Jiangning, countless commodities, also a steady stream of sailing down from Shuzhong, enriched to Wuxi, Suzhou, Yixing, Huzhou four big towns around the lake.

When Zeng Bu and Lu Jiawen arrived in Zhejiang, they were shocked and speechless by the scene of thousands of sails racing on Taihu Lake.

What about the floods and droughts that are said to be good? The big dogs just give Su You face?!

Wang Zhongzheng brought Di Yong's Shenji battalion of 100 people this time, the two Zhejiang roads are far away from the Western Xia of Liao, and the Great Song Dynasty now has enough new firearms reserves to equip quite a considerable number of troops, and Zhao Ji is ready to quietly expand the scale of the new army.

Liangzhejiang Road, the armies of Yiguo and Jiedu, including the Yijin Army, the Ning Navy, the Zhendong Army, the Pingjiang Army, the Zhenjiang Army, the Zhaoqing Army, the Baoning Army, the Wang Navy, the Fengguo Army, the Jing Navy, the Sui'an Army, the Jiangyin Army, and the Shun'an Army, have a full thirteen armies, with nearly 40,000 people in theory.

But after a long period of peace, military discipline was slack, and he was basically reduced to a rice worm, and he had to harass the place, and his father didn't love his mother.

Speaking of which, there are no 600 township soldiers under the jurisdiction of the state government itself.

After all, the township soldiers still have local financial care, and they are the dictatorship forces that the governors can actually control, and there are still basic guarantees.

Di Yong and Wang Zhongzheng came this time, in addition to rectifying the army, there was another important reason, that is, Su Youjuan asked for money printing, and Zhao Ji had to send his own people to keep an eye on it.

Looking at the boats on Taihu Lake, Wang Zhongzheng smiled: "This posture, tsk, said that it was a disaster, and someone had to believe it!" ”

Cai Jingyun smiled: "When the Taiwei arrives, the judgment will be relieved, so many materials and money are coming and going on Taihu Lake, and now I am afraid that heroes from all walks of life are eyeing this piece of fat." ”

Wang Zhongzheng moved: "Oh? Lots of bandits? ”

Cai Jing said: "There are indeed a lot of bandits, there are three main categories, one is the Yanting household, which is exploited by large households, and the class cannot be completed, and it is a bandit; The second category is the salt barons, the smugglers collude to run rampant in the prefectures and counties, and several major forces, the local government dare not clean up; The third category......"

Wang Zhongzheng squinted at him: "What? Don't dare to say it? ”

Cai Jing bowed and saluted: "The third category, it's really hard to speak, the thirteen state capitals rely on Guo Jiedu's army, and they are also soldiers and bandits, colluding with bandits, not to mention that they are not effective in suppressing bandits, and harassing local places is a good hand, this, hehehe......"

Di Yong's face was pale: "It will be the courage of a soldier." If the army is ineffective, that is the responsibility of the command. The hundred people behind Di Yong are all His Majesty's pro-army, and they all have military merits. ”

"The lowest class is all in the rank of lieutenant, above Xuanjielang. Conditioning this gang of mud, that is a knife used to kill chickens. ”

Cai Jing said with a smile: "Yes, Yun Shuai has been looking forward to it in Hangzhou as early as possible, starting with the Yijin Army attached to Guo. ”

After Zeng Bu and Lu Jia asked for a long time, Cai Jing said to the two: "The two of you came all the way, and there was no fight on the road?" ”

Zeng Bu and Lu Jia's faces were gloomy, and they both snorted and did not answer.

Cai Jing took two letters: "This is a letter from Yun Shuai to the two of you, let's take office immediately after reading it." ”

The two of them opened the letter and saw that they were gloating, and Cai Jing said, "Oh, it's wrong! Wrong to give! ”

After speaking, he reversed the letter: "It's all busy and dizzy, that's right." ”

The expressions of the two immediately changed, Lu Jiawen's face suddenly turned pale, and Zeng Bu shouted to Cai Jing with an angry face: "Su Yun's envoy wants to dump his subordinates, why do you have to resort to such a subordinate method?!" I'm going to Hangzhou, just go to prison, and don't eat swords after the New Year! ”

Cai Jing's face was confused: "What is Taishou?" This is the importance that the envoy attaches to the Taishou, how can it be so bad? ”

Zeng Bu said angrily: "Then let me ask you, Raozhou Yongping Supervisor, how much copper will be collected this year?" How much money to mint? ”

Cai Jing said: "Last year, Yongping supervised 150,000 catties of copper and minted 200,000 yuan. ”

Zeng Bu trembled his letterhead: "Then why is it my turn to guard Raozhou, and the copper has become 400,000 catties?" Minting money has become 600,000 guan?! ”

Cai Jing said: "Well...... What does it mean...... There are also those who can work hard. ”

Lu Jia glanced at Zeng Bu and said with a wry smile: "Seventy thousand servants, three months of labor, four catties of grain per day, not counting the three meals mentioned in the letter, vegetables and salt, a total of 250,000 stones." ”

"Su Yun has the ability to reach the sky, and Lu Jia asked if there was no way to accompany him. This is a letter to the imperial court, please make another meritocracy, or, Zeng Taishou has this ability. ”

Zeng Bu said angrily: "Lu's child! Now is the time for the same enemy, do you still want to fight in the nest?! ”

Lu Jiawen sneered: "I dare to leave my post and float in the rivers and seas, I don't know if Brother Zeng dare to join me and make a mess with him Su You?" ”

"You!" You eat alone and the whole family is not hungry on a dog day, can Lao Tzu be the same as you?!
