Seeing that this conversation was a bit off-topic, Fan Zhen coughed lightly and continued: "Second, since the late Tang Dynasty, land annexation has been drastic, and many people have lost their land, and have to commit themselves to the Haoqiang family, as slaves and maids, these people do not produce, do not take taxes, and do not accept forced labor, which leads to national financial losses, and secondly, it leads to the rise of grain and other prices, and the harvest year is just that, once the crops fail, then it is likely to further lead to the emergence of famine. A small division of land to enable them to become self-reliant. For other heroes, the prince can formulate relevant etiquette laws and regulations, clarify laws and regulations, and strictly stipulate what kind of status and how many slaves and maids can be at most. ”

Release the slave maid, this trick has been used by many good people, such as Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu, etc., Ma Yun knows all this, but he doesn't know how to release it. After all, let go of their slaves and maids, I'm afraid many people are not happy to do it, especially now that the king of Nanping is on the run, and Da Chu has not yet gained a firm foothold in Nanping, in case...

Ma Yun pondered for a moment and said, "Mr.'s eyes are like torches, and he can see the key at a glance." But how exactly does this work? ”

Fan Zhen chuckled lightly and said: "Lord Wang, the main thing is that you make a decree, on the one hand, the number of slaves and maids is serious, and on the other hand, it is announced that the government will be responsible for the placement of these slaves and maids, and at the same time make a little compensation for the powerful households, so that the powerful households in the three states of Nanping will inevitably exercise according to the order." ”

Ma Yun's face was suffocated, and his expression was a little disapproving, girl, Lao Tzu is neither Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty nor Li Shimin, can those heroes be so obedient?

Fan Zhen looked at Ma Yun's expression and seemed to be a little hesitant, and continued: "If at another time, this 'slave release order' will be a local haoqiang, but it will not be like this now, there is no harvest in Nanping this summer, and the situation of the autumn harvest is not very good, this year of catastrophe is just around the corner." And in recent years, the king of Nanping has been extremely harsh, most of these heroes are fond of face, and the actual situation at home is not good, if the prince orders the release of slaves, and the government is responsible for the placement, then there must be some heroes who are willing to obey. And in the three weeks of Nanping, one of the most slaves is the king of Nanping, and the other is Sikong Xun, the prince can severely punish Sikong Xun, so other people must not dare to sing for the horses. ”

One is soft and one is hard, and it is okay to slap and give a date to eat. Jack Ma nodded.

Fan Zhen continued: "Sikong Xun deceived the upper and lower, accepted bribes, and ran rampant in Nanping, and the people of Nanping dared to be angry with him but did not dare to speak, and now if the prince can severely punish Sikong Xun and make the people angry, then it will be much easier for the prince to win the hearts of the people." Moreover, Sikong Xun is corrupt and corrupt, and his family should have accumulated a lot of money, and if he can take away his wealth, it will also solve our urgent need to ignite our eyebrows. ”

Ma Yun glanced at Fan Qian, and was very happy in his heart: robbing people's money, and robbing it so reasonably, it would be good if this good thing happened every day, he nodded slowly, and said: "Sikong Xun is extremely evil, and there is more than enough to die, and those greedy money will naturally be confiscated, well... , how does Mr. know that there is not much money and food in Yuezhou? ”

Fan Zhen said with a smile: "Lord, the minister heard that the king's order is just a feint attack on Nanping, just scare and scare the king of Nanping." In this case, the money spent by the prince to send troops should be Yuezhou's own savings, and how much money can Yuezhou have in a state. ”

Ma Yun laughed: "Mr. Fan, it's really subtle." ”

Fan Zhen said humbly: "The prince can use the power of a state to skillfully take Nanping, this vision and courage is even more admirable." ”

Seeing that Ma Yun looked quite proud, he continued: "Now, Nanping Sanzhou can go down in a blink of an eye, does the prince have any ideas for this year's winter?" ”

Ma Yun asked: "Wu Ban, they are doing everything possible to worry about food and prepare for disaster relief. ”

Fan Zhen said: "Of course, the grain must be prepared, but in the opinion of the minister, it is necessary not only to raise grain, but also to stabilize the price of grain." ”

Ma Yun was stunned, this is a bit interesting.

Fan Zhen continued: "Since ancient times, officials have always thought of relief only when there was a famine, and from the perspective of ministers, this is definitely not a good policy. Famine occurred mainly because of the increase in food prices, which were caused by poor harvests on the one hand, and by unscrupulous traders hoarding and driving up grain prices on the other. The people bought high-priced grain, but soon their savings were not spent, and finally the government had to come forward to help. At the same time, the grain price in Nanping has always been slightly higher than that in Huainan, as long as we reduce the tax on grain and make it profitable for merchants, it will be possible to attract merchants to sell grain from Huainan, so that the pressure on the government to provide disaster relief will be much less. ”

The first three, Ma Yun didn't think it was surprising, especially the third one, Zhao Pu made such a suggestion a long time ago, but Sikong Xun was in Guangmeng's hands and had not been escorted over. But the fourth suggestion has to make Ma Yun look at Fan Qian, what an economic article that helps the world. In fact, this is also because Ma Yun does not understand history, and the scholars and doctors in ancient times were not as unprofitable and ignorant of business as in later literary works, as early as the Tang Dynasty, Zhang Shuo had done similar things.

Ma Yun was so excited that he couldn't help but move his body to Fan Zhen's side.

Fan Zhen continued: "Nanping uses copper coins, and my Dachu uses iron coins. ”

At the time of Yuan Shikai, there was Yuan Datou, the Nationalist Government had legal tender, and under the leadership of the party, New China implemented the renminbi. Isn't this currency soon representing the change of a dynasty, doesn't it prove the change of dynasty from one side? The currency has been changed, so as not to make the people nostalgic for the previous dynasty and bring out some old and young relics.

Therefore, Ma Yun nodded subconsciously.

Fan Zhen then asked, "Then does the prince know the difference between this copper coin and the iron coin?" ”

Ma Yun usually pays the bill by others when he goes out, and he really hasn't seen Da Chu's iron money, but Brother Kong Fang has still seen it, so it must be the same with iron money.

Ma Yun has an advantage, he is more modest and sincere, and he doesn't know the key questions, he just doesn't know, he smiled awkwardly: "I was about to ask for advice." ”

Fan Zhen stroked his beard and said slowly: "Money and silk are related to the lives of the world, how many rulers are falling on this money and silk, and the overall situation will be affected by a little carelessness, which will make the rich richer and the poor poorer, and then starve all over the wilderness, the sea is boiling, Wang Mang and others are a lesson from the past." For those who are in power, they must understand clearly, and the ministers will try to explain one or two things for the prince. ”
