This is a serious question, or rather a question that no one dares to think about.

Zhang Jiao is like that, what he uses must be demonic art, it is a demon way, and he must be killed in the world. But a member of the Han clan suddenly got the immortal method taught by the immortals, and the words that happened to be the current emperor were faint......

I really can't imagine it, and it's hard to say it when I think about it, and if I spread it, it will definitely bring death.

"Cautious ......" Xun Yue was the oldest, so he came forward to stop Guo Jia's words. It's not a single household, and there are so many families involved, but some things are not something that can be said casually.

"Haha, why make a fool of yourself?" Guo Jia laughed, "Guo is very curious, what is the secret of Taishou!" ”

Seeing that he left immediately after speaking, everyone also looked at each other, and it could be seen that everyone's mood was a little complicated.

"That Guo Jia...... It's Guo's ......" Xin Bi took the lead in asking, and those who can generally enter the circle should be the big families in Yingchuan, Yingchuan Guo's, and they don't have to be poor with Xin's.

"Guo Jia is just a sideline, his parents died early, and there are many deductions in the clan for his monthly examples, so he has had this character since he was a child." Xun Yu sighed, he was bullied by his clan since he was a child and suffered all kinds of injustices.

Guo Jia's apparent bohemianism is actually more unimaginably strong and open-minded.

"So that's ......" Xin Biyan lowered his attention to Guo Jia a little, but he didn't despise the other party because of this.

A few days passed, and the truth passed quickly. As the crops in the field matured, Liu Tao even invited the most experienced old farmers in Yunzhong County to confirm that they were really ripe, and then ordered the harvest to begin.

According to the rules, the taxes of the naturalized Hu people are heavier than those of the Han people, and Liu Tao did not immediately abolish this rule, and he should collect as much as he wants. The treasury was suddenly filled up a lot, and it looked much more comfortable.

"Xianhe, it seems that there are going to be more things on your side." Liu Tao said with a smile.

"This kind of busyness, subordinates are very happy." Jian Yong said with a smile.

"It's not that simple, I'm going to reopen the regular position." Liu Tao explained, "Later, we will buy a batch of grain from these people at the market price and put it in the cabin." I need you to come up with a plan for how to keep, store, and prevent others from misappropriating it. ”

"The regular closing position has not been set since the dynasty, so it's not good for us to set it rashly, right?" Jian Yong was a little worried.

"Anyway, it will be piloted in this county, and other places will not be opened for the time being. If something goes wrong, it is also Yunzhong County, and it will not affect other places. If it is feasible, it will be gradually promoted, and if it is not feasible, it will be stopped directly. Liu Tao said casually.

After a pause, he continued: "Xianhe knows that Emperor Ming once planned to open a regular position, why did he stop it? ”

"This ......" Jian Yong said, this is a bit too difficult for him, he really doesn't read much.

"Because at that time it was fully rolled out, and the local officials were not qualified. Under the guise of pretence, there are many people who buy the people's grain at a low price and then sell it at a high price. At the same time, the stored grain, maybe before you know it, the new rice will become old grain, and even the grain, I don't know when it will be mixed with sand......" Liu Tao recalled.

Part of it was indeed the clan relative Liu Ban who advised him on these grounds, so the discussion of Chang Ping was put on hold. Part of it is explained by Liu Tao's recollection of watching a drama called "The Granary of the World" before.

The problem of often closing positions, even in the Ming and Qing dynasties, has not been solved, and he doesn't care much about this part, and it's okay.

"There are so many problems, the lord is directly thrown to his subordinates......" Jian Yong was a little embarrassed.

"It's okay, I'll let Cangshan help you, that Xun Yu under him should be quite good at this matter. When the time comes, I will make a charter, and I will write a note. Liu Tao said with a smile.

When it comes to the issue of basic national policy, it is not something that he, the Taishou, can touch. Not to mention the fundamental problem of governance, even the concept of naturalization test and regular closing needs to be played to Liu Hong. Although he doesn't give it, he will try it himself.

Even at this stage, it doesn't work if he doesn't exist at all, no matter what he cuts first and then plays, basic respect is still needed.

The key to these two policies is indeed positive for Dahan, and Liu Hong should be able to see it. With his character, he should allow himself to try it out. If it is not allowed, then it is purely suppression.

"It's only like this......" Jian Yong is helpless, the establishment of a system contains problems that are not so simple. It's hard to say by what standard this market price is.

After all, the price of food varies from place to place, and the fluctuation of food prices will also change as merchants buy and sell. When to buy, when to sell, at what price to buy and at what price to sell, these are all questions.

In addition, there is the problem of storage, how to ensure the storage of grain. The other is the rule of officials, how to ensure that officials do not have problems. Liu Tao gave an idea, but how to implement it, it can definitely make people doubt life.

"If the regular liquidation can reappear in our place, then the people do not have to worry about the problem that the harvest will lead to losses, and the poor harvest will not survive." Liu Tao sighed, "Xianhe, do you know what is the biggest obstacle to closing a position?" ”

"The lord is so-called, is he a squire?" Jian Yong thought about the role of this regular liquidation, and then roughly understood.

The squires or soldiers in these years probably have one problem, that is, laziness. I don't think about how to develop and make money, after all, I want to be an official, but the problem is that if you don't have money, you must be greedy for ink, and you need to be rich in order not to be greedy for ink.

How to get money, both business and industry are risky, and the more people invest, the more risky it is. In terms of stability, there are not as many problems as farmland, so everyone's attention is still on farmland.

After all, there is land rent to harvest every year, and it doesn't take much effort to receive money, which is of course the first choice. However, this alone is obviously not satisfied, and if farming is regarded as an industry, then according to the idea of capital, it is natural to maximize profits.

As a result, the price of grain is like the stock market, the gentry are constantly buying and lowering the price of grain, and then they are reluctant to sell it in a disaster year, and the price of grain is inflated, and then they are sold.

Those who speculated in later generations basically used the methods of these ancestors.

In order to control grain prices, the first thing to pay attention to is the immobility of grain, and all grain can only be sold in the county or county, and cannot flow to other places. Otherwise, it will be difficult to control food price fluctuations, and it will be impossible to maximize profits.

The main culprits for this result are the merchants, especially the big grain merchants. Therefore, all dynasties and generations are suppressing businessmen, on the one hand, because they don't have so much time to do business, their eyes are red; On the one hand, the businessmen make it difficult for them to control the price of food, which is unpleasant!

Often close positions, in the country, it must be beneficial to the country and the people, but for the family, it is to deprive them of the way to manipulate food prices, 200% of the profits, compressed to 20% to 35%, it is completely to make hard money, they are used to 200% profits, they naturally want to protest.

It just so happens that this thing needs officials to manage, and coincidentally, more officials come from these squire families these days......

Many often closed positions are prone to problems, and the root cause is actually on this.

"Sometimes, I think it's really good to be in the clouds. There are no wealthy families, at most some small families who are officials in the county. This means that our biggest resistance will not cause us too much trouble. Liu Tao sighed.

After a pause, he looked at Jian Yong and said, "This is also the reason why we can close positions here." ”

changed the counties in the Central Plains, and it is estimated that this one does not know how much resistance it will encounter, and how many people will calculate it. They will use a hundred methods to tell him: you can't open a position that is always closed!

"My lord has always been lucky." Jian Yong said with a smile, this has become a topic that has become a topic of private jokes for several cores. Then again, who wouldn't want four hours of luck?

"If you want to experience it, I can also give you a ......" Liu Tao thought for a while and said in a low voice.

"My subordinates are lucky enough, and it's bad to be lucky and suddenly become less lucky." Jian Yong refused very rationally.

"yes, that's how I feel right now." Liu Tao said helplessly, "I'm used to having four lucky hours every day, and I always think that if I can be lucky all day." ”

It's better to be a little luckier, that's better...... It's not easy to be content.

Regarding the matter of often closing positions, Jian Yong also plans to think about it, give a plan, and then discuss it with a few people.

As a result, when he was about to go out, he remembered something, turned around and said, "Lord, my subordinates caught a spy last night." ”

"Oh, who is so idle that they need to come to us and find out...... I actually caught you again. Liu Tao teased.

"He came into contact with his subordinates as a scholar who traveled to this point, and during this time, it seemed that he intentionally or unintentionally inquired about the news of the main guild's spells. The subordinates felt that there was a problem, so they sent someone to take him down last night and are being held in the prison. Jian Yong replied.

"Although I don't think this news can be kept secret for the rest of my life, it is said that our secrecy measures are still good." Liu Tao teased, "So, who betrayed us?" ”

But no one was burned to death, or the fact that he betrayed him was not considered an active hostile act?

"I don't know this, my lord, my subordinates feel that this matter always needs a proper solution. It won't help if you keep it hidden. Jian Yong reminded.

"I'll think about that, speaking of which, what's the name of the spy...... Forget it, it is estimated to be a pseudonym. Liu Tao was a little curious about that spy, after all, it was the first time he had caught this kind of profession.

"This person calls himself Yingchuan Guo Jia, and his expression is filial piety, but I don't know if it's a fake name." Jian Yong replied.

"Wait, what did you just say his name was?" Liu Tao was taken aback and hurriedly asked.

"Yingchuan Guo Jia......" Jian Yong didn't understand why Liu Tao was so excited.

"He's in prison, isn't he?" Liu Tao said excitedly, "No, I'm going to see him now!" ”

"Oh, the lord is ...... at will" Jian Yong also probably reacted, it is estimated that the situation is similar to Xun Yu, it should be a certain talent that the lord is thinking about. But if you are a talent, why is it so clumsy to listen to the situation?

Jian Yong couldn't figure it out, so he simply didn't think about it, anyway, he had more urgent and headache things to do.

A few minutes later, Liu Tao arrived in prison. The environment here is not very good, if he could, he could not come, so he tried not to come, but at the moment he couldn't take care of so much. When he came to the cell where Guo Jia was being held, he excitedly shouted inside: "Yingchuan Guo Jia? ”

"Yingchuan Guo Jia, meet Taishou." Guo Jia was not surprised, but just smiled and saluted him.
