Chapter 150: Flintlock Pistol
Jiang Yunfan didn't know if he should take out the soap in his arms.
Seeing the performance of everyone, it seemed that they did not show any objection to this matter, so they simply took out the soap and said: "Your Majesty, this is an item recorded in an ancient book yesterday, called - soap. It is similar to today's 'pancreas' and 'soap ball', but this thing is easier to use than the first two, and the cost is cheaper, and the minister wants to give it to His Majesty. ”
The eunuch came and presented it to the emperor, who held it in his hand and looked at it, a milky white square object, wafting with fragrance.
"I have a heart." The emperor handed it over to the eunuchs.
"Your Majesty, the minister still has something to do."
"Say it." The emperor nodded, knowing that he had medicine in his gourd to buy.
"Your Majesty." Jiang Yunfan gave his hand, "The minister wants to ask His Majesty to open a division to make this thing and sell this thing to flush the treasury." ”
"No." As soon as Jiang Yunfan finished speaking, one person came out to object: "Your Majesty, what does the imperial court look like when it sells things?"
"Yes, yes."
"That's right, since ancient times, businessmen have been to low-class people, and the court has become a businessman, isn't it ridiculed by the world."
“……”
Jiang Yunfan watched them finish speaking, and waited for them to stop talking before he said, "What do you say about salt?" ”
One humane: "The salt is the great treasure of the country." ”
Another person chimed in: "The endowment of the world, the salt is half of it, and the palace is served, the military salary, and the hundred officials are all dependent on Yan." ”
"No, no, no." Jiang Yunfan shook his hand and said: "Money is the great treasure of the country, everything that can make money should be owned by the country, in this way, when the country is rich and strong, the people can live and work in peace and contentment, and your fortune can also rise." ”
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that daily necessities such as soap should come forward again and set up a court shop to sell"
"In the port, the shops of the imperial court were established to carry out overseas trade, and the imperial court was the leading role to earn money and finally benefit the people."
"In addition, every prefecture, state, and county has established a grain sales point for the imperial court to sell and purchase."
"And ......"
"Alright." The emperor disturbed him and said, "These things you said, you can write an excerpt after you go back, and we will talk about it tomorrow morning." ”
"Yes."
Jiang Yunfan gave up, he didn't make too many preparations, just said something nonsense, the main thing is that there is no industrialization now, too many things can't be completely state-owned, as far as the clothing, food, housing and transportation are concerned, clothing, and the vast majority of the royal family will never allow it, this is a symbol of status, and it's okay to say that it's okay to eat, but those landlords are very troublesome.
Landlord, Jiang Yunfan was shocked, at this time, it seems that it is not suitable to engage in state-run grain stores.
A trace of cold sweat slid down his forehead on his body, and now is the time to settle down, in case those landlords defect, the world is in danger......
The emperor glanced at his expression, laughed secretly, reacted?
Jiang Yunfan secretly glanced around, fortunately, the minister had already started to talk about things with His Majesty, maybe they didn't think much about it.
Secretly wiped his sweat and was silent.
After the early dynasty retreated, the emperor did not keep him, so Jiang Yunfan returned to the tax institute and asked the deputy envoy to take him to the bookstore to do some handover, and then he could send someone to open the store according to his plan.
One person sat in the room, writing the songs, avoiding the interests of the squire, the landlords, and those who were all the people, but only writing about soap and overseas trade, starting with soap to build a daily necessities store, and building a state-run system with a bookstore, which was a long thing that needed to be done slowly.
It is necessary to let the people get used to the existence of the state, and not be swayed by those profiteers.
There is also a battle of public opinion, but fortunately, Jiang Yunfan has already taken the lead.
By the way, there is also the Information Bureau, which will be established in the future, so that he will not have to make a wedding dress for others.
Regarding maritime trade, first set up something similar to a company, send sailors to escort it, trade with other countries in the world, and then buy what the Ming Dynasty needs.
This is a very important point, there is no corn and potatoes in the Ming Dynasty now, and the current situation urgently needs these two foods to prepare for a possible famine.
It didn't take long to finish writing, and I revised it for a long time, and when everything was done, I sent it to it.
The emperor had been waiting for Jiang Yunfan's recital, and it was delivered to the emperor as soon as possible.
After the emperor saw it, he nodded again and again.
Here, after Jiang Yunfan finished lunch, he rested for a while, and after getting up, he went here to ask to see Ji Yunmiao, but he still waited for the word 'gone'.
Jiang Yunfan had no choice but to return home.
took out "Mirror Flowers" and revised the ending, and when the ending was modified, I went to show it to the queen.
The day passed like this, and Jiang Yunfan waited outside the noon gate early the next morning.
It's not surprising that they know they have something to talk about today.
Yesterday they also thought about what Jiang Yunfan said, divided into three factions, there are interests related to the natural opposition, no, one faction opposes, feel that the country is doing business, too undignified, people laugh, one faction feels that this can greatly increase the treasury revenue, is a good thing, especially the grain, can also prevent businessmen and officials from colluding, plundering the people's money, now there are often tax grain into clothing, livestock, and even gold and silver.
The drum sounded, and Jiang Yunfan was still standing in the C position.
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live."
After everyone saluted, the emperor asked Jiang Yunfan to read Jiang Yunfan's recital, and everyone listened.
"Your Majesty, the minister is against it."
“……”
In a burst of opposition, only Liao Liao's few voices agreed.
"As for the matter of asking for the return, I thought about it for a night last night, and felt that this matter was feasible, and now that the country is using money, these two things can greatly increase the revenue of the treasury, which is a good thing."
"Return."
"The minister is here." Jiang Yunfan gave up.
"I'll leave this matter to you, you can choose as you choose, but the money can only be controlled within 20,000 miles, understand?"
"The minister must listen to it properly."
Jiang Yunfan arched his hand.
"Alright, let's do it."
The emperor waved his hand, Jiang Yunfan retreated, and the ministers looked at each other and sighed helplessly.
The emperor did not listen to them at all.
Jiang Yunfan walked to the Ministry of Officials, asked for a list of officials, wrote down a few people, and then came to the Ministry of Works, asked for some craftsmen, pulled them to a courtyard, gave them the production method, gave them money, and let them do as much as they could.
After coming out, I wanted to rest, but suddenly it occurred to me that three days had arrived, and today was the time for the gun inspection, so I ran to the courtyard where I went to make the flintlock pistol, and asked the guards to open the door.
Several people inside were sitting in the courtyard, and on the stone table in front of them, there was a gun and a wooden handle**.
"Done?"
Several people nodded excitedly.
"Can you try it?"
"Tried." Several people nodded, and one stood up and said, "My lord, please come with me." ”
Jiang Yunfan followed, and the rest of the people followed with guns and hands, Jiang Yunfan was not afraid of them shooting, I believe they wouldn't dare.
When I came to the backyard, I saw several huge pits.
"This is a hand ** fried?" Jiang Yunfan looked at it in surprise.
"Yes." One person took it to Jiang Yunfan's hand**, "Adults can try it." ”
"Okay." Jiang Yunfan nodded, took a few steps, pulled the lead, threw it out, hid behind the stone wall, and after a few seconds, he heard a "bang" sound.
Under the smoke, the pit was bigger and deeper.
"Sir, try the gun."
Jiang Yunfan took the gun and fired a shot, the recoil was not large, the accuracy was also poor, and the projectile was actually a foot away from Jiang Yunfan's aim, but it was also very good.
"Not bad, not bad." Jiang Yunfan was overjoyed, and took out a few taels of silver to reward a few people.
"This is your hard work for the past three days, and when I report to Your Majesty, I will reward you with a big one."
"Thank you, sir." Several people thanked each other.
Jiang Yunfan took a flintlock pistol and went to the palace when he asked for a wooden handle**.
