Chapter 107: Business Law! 1/5
"Boom! From now on, the people can use the goods to go to the money bank in exchange for the equivalent money, copper coins, gold and silver to buy any items, anyone who does not accept the trader or individual, will be killed! ”
"Boom! From now on, the people can use the goods to go to the money bank in exchange for the equivalent money, copper coins, gold and silver to buy any items, anyone who does not accept the trader or individual, will be killed! ”
"Boom! From now on, the people can use the goods to go to the money bank in exchange for the equivalent money, copper coins, gold and silver to buy any items, anyone who does not accept the trader or individual, will be killed! ”
The officers and soldiers from all over the country looked at the gong and shouted loudly to the people or traders on both sides of the street, announcing that the Wei State had entered the monetary age!
After the official announcement, Meng Ge was the first to take out the useless cloth at home, and the money he had just received went to the money village to exchange for copper coins, gold, and silver.
Seeing He Qiu and Meng Ge's actions, the minister seemed to understand, and also learned from Meng Ge He Qiu to take out the grain and exchange it for equivalent currency.
Behind the ministers is the aristocracy, now there are tens of thousands of nobles in the Great Wei, when they also took out the grain to exchange for money, the people also went to change, I have to say that there are more than 200,000 people in the Wei State, half of which have a nobleman in the family.
The Wei State entered the monetary era without any hindrance, and it was smooth sailing!
The nobles and ministers received money, and the money houses also received a large amount of grain, and the money houses did not fill the treasury with these grains, but opened grain houses.
Whether it is to open a money village or to fill it into the treasury, it will not hinder the state, as long as the state needs it, it is completely possible to transfer grain from the money bank, anyway, the money bank in Wei State is all run by the state.
The royal palace and the library cabinet!
"Changgong, what do you think of businessmen?"
"Your Majesty, businessmen pursue profits, unscrupulous means for the sake of profit, usually unite with other businessmen to raise prices, resulting in the people not being able to afford it, especially when there is a drought and flood, those merchants even raise the price of grain to an astronomical amount, so that many people can only buy grain by selling their children and daughters!"
"You're right, I'll ask again, is there any country in the world that allows private grain sales?"
"Grain is the foundation of the country, how can it be bought and sold privately, the minister has never heard that the country allows private grain sales, only heard that there are illegal businessmen, smuggling and selling!"
In the library pavilion, Wei Ya and Meng Ge were discussing the affairs of the merchants.
In this era, grain and salt were as important as weapons and armor, and they were the foundation of the country, and private sales were never allowed, because the benefits were too great, and as long as the merchants colluded, they could raise the price of grain to the monarch.
Hundreds of years ago, there was a country called Beiguo, an earl country, there was a flood, the shrewd merchants of Beiguo saw the benefits, they colluded to raise the price of food to a terrifying number that everyone stopped, the price of food was too high, the monarchs and ministers of Beiguo were reluctant to buy food to relieve the disaster, and they could only let the victims solve it themselves, resulting in many victims selling their sons and daughters in order to buy a bucket of food, and finally caused a large number of victims to be extremely dissatisfied and rebelled directly!
Although the victims did not succeed in rebelling in the end, it also made Beiguo drink a pot, and the national strength was greatly damaged, gradually weakened, and finally annexed and completely destroyed!
In order to prevent the country from becoming the second country, they have ordered to prohibit merchants from selling grain.
"I want to give an order to allow private people to sell grain!" Wei Ya said in surprise.
As a modern person in the previous life, Wei Lai knows the importance of business, the more developed the country's commerce, the stronger the country's financial resources, but the modern system is different from the system at this time, but the system can be changed!
"What?" Meng Ge was taken aback, with an incredible look on his face, and thought to himself, isn't the king confused, opening up private grain sales, this is digging a pit for himself and jumping in!
"Maybe you think that businessmen pursue profits and do whatever it takes for profit, but in Lone's view, this is nothing more than no legal suppression, Meng Ge, Lone remembers, the monetary system compiled by He Qiu, which mentions that private individuals are not allowed to raise prices, otherwise they will be sentenced to thirty years of hard labor in the city, and the family property will be confiscated.
"Lone thinks that this law is very good, and it severely restricts the rights of merchants, so that they only need to buy and sell, and cannot raise the price!" Wei Li said unhurriedly.
When you come to this world as a traverser, the biggest gain is not the system, but the thinking!
In the eyes of the ancients, oops, this matter is too serious, and it must be cut down to eliminate future troubles, and merchants are prohibited from selling grain, and in the eyes of modern people, there is no need to order a ban on merchants selling grain, just add a few laws to restrict it, this is thinking.
Of course, this is not to say that they are stupid, but a normal phenomenon.
Modern people know so much, and it's not that they're smart, but that they've seen a lot, seen a lot, heard a lot, and have learned from the past when they encounter things, but what about the ancients? They have seen little, seen little, and heard little, and they have no lessons to learn from, so they completely rely on step-by-step exploration.
It can be said that without the "ignorance" of the ancients, there would be no "wisdom" of modern people!
The history of human beings is equivalent to a baby growing into an adult, just like primitive humans, at the beginning, they didn't know anything, they didn't know how to make fire, they didn't know how to eat cooked food, and they didn't know how to make powerful weapons, but as time went by, someone figured it out, they knew, they knew, and future generations also knew.
The people of this world are not stupid, and Wei Li is not as smart as them, but the thinking of finding a way is different, which is often beyond their expectations, making them unable to resist.
"Yes, why didn't the minister think that it could be restricted by the law!" Meng Ge suddenly realized, and his brain was excited.
"The law alone is not enough, it must be a perfect commercial law to completely restrict, this matter, Lone is ready to do it himself, you go down first!" Wei Li said indifferently.
"No!" Meng Ge bent down with admiration on his face and retreated, and then left the library pavilion!
After Meng Ge left, Wei Li began to start construction, specializing in the preparation of "Commercial Law", a set of laws for business!
A month!
July 25th, 12th year of Zhengyun!
After a month of hard work, Wei Ya completed the "Commercial Law", and after completion, he first showed it to the civil and military officials, and without objection, he directly announced it to the world and allowed private grain sales!
