"Oh? And such things? ”
Song Huizong smiled slightly, and looked at Gao Yu with interest.
Gao Yu was depressed, and smiled at Song Huizong, but his eyes glanced at Li Qi, as if to say, you are still standing stupidly and doing shime, hurry up.
Seeing Gao Yu's embarrassed appearance, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he suddenly turned his head to look at a person, and said, "Liu Shilang, do you remember the last time in the Keju Competition, Gao Taiwei asked you to be a referee?" ”
This person is the black-faced judge Liu Haozheng.
Liu Haozheng was slightly stunned, nodded and said, "Naturally remember." ”
Li Qi smiled slightly and said, "It was from this cooperation that I thought of a way to alleviate redundant officials. ”
Gao Yu frowned and said, "Do you want those officials to come to the Keju Alliance to help?" ”
"Exactly, exactly." Li Qi smiled and said loudly: "I believe everyone is also zhidào, since the start of the Keju Competition, it has been widely praised by the people, and its scale is getting bigger and bigger, and the benefits are naturally very considerable." First of all, the ticket revenue for each game is not a small amount, and secondly, many merchants are scrambling to buy the name of their store to fly over Kemari Park, which is a lot of money; Third, it is to drive the consumption of many merchants around and help them get rich very well, about this yidiǎn, the best representative is the old man who bought juice outside the Keju field, Weichen had exchanged a few words with the old man before going to Jinguo, he told sù Weichen, in fact, he also sold juice in that generation very early, but the business has always been very average, barely able to earn a mouthful of food, but since the start of the Keju Alliance, his daily business has increased nearly tenfold, and now a family of four has come here to do business. All in all, the Keju League is now more than just a Keju tournament, it has become a business league. ”
"Business Alliance?"
Song Huizong was stunned, pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "What you said is right, the business alliance may be more appropriate." ”
"Your Majesty." Li Qi gave up his hand. He added: "However, this is just the beginning, and in the future national competitions, and even the later shijiè competitions, the Keju Federation will only get better and better, the scale will become larger and larger, and the fields involved will become wider and wider, and more and more talents will be needed." The most basic ones are talents in bookkeeping and management. And the article is well written. These things can't be done by ordinary people, but among my Great Song Dynasty officials, all kinds of talents are overflowing, there are too many, and there are even many officials who can't find anything to do all day long, which is equivalent to taking money for nothing, which is unfair to everyone in the Great Song Dynasty, we should help them give full play to their talents. In addition, since the Keju Alliance has become a business alliance, Nàme also belongs to the service industry. If you are looking for some people in the market, the exit is market slang, then how can it be done, it must be some knowledgeable people. There is also the Keju Alliance's recent plan to hold a buying tournament. The auction of the surrounding stores, these are all gold stores, ziji investment in business, this is also a way out. We can even give them some preferential policies.
Not only that, but you want to zhidào, this Keju Alliance is just one of them. There are also many businesses that require a large number of talents, such as the newly built casino of Hongwan Gambling House, the newly built factory of Zhoujia Silk Village, and the trade between Zuixianju and surrounding neighboring countries, which all require a lot of talented people, but they are by no means ordinary people are competent, so if you can introduce too many officials of my Great Song Dynasty into these fields, firstly, their lives will not be méiyou shime changes, and the remuneration will be set according to your talent, which is fair and reasonable, and secondly, it will reduce the pressure on the treasury. Isn't it beautiful to waste talents. ”
Gao Yu nodded when he heard this, and said: "You are right, now the Keju Alliance is almost the two of you and me taking care of it, and the manpower is dwarfed, otherwise I wouldn't have asked Liu Shilang to help last time, I'm ashamed that I didn't pay Liu Shilang at that time, I'm really sorry." ”
Liu Haozheng's black face squeezed out a hint of a smile and said, "Where, where, the captain is outside." ”
Song Moquan snorted: "This is just your wishful thinking, who will let the officials not do it and run to do business." ”
Li Qi said with a smile: "This is the first step in the plan is to allow businessmen to participate in the scientific examination, in fact, the scientific examination is very fair for everyone, you have the ability to naturally take the test, if you don't have the ability, you can't afford to take the test, so it's a big deal to be open to businessmen, and allowing businessmen to take the scientific examination is equivalent to building a bridge between officials and businessmen, you might as well imagine that if businessmen can be officials, why can't officials engage in business, this move is not to belittle anyone, improve whom, Instead, the barrier between officials and businessmen has been pierced, in order to reduce the pressure on China's finances brought by redundant officials and achieve the purpose of enriching the country and enriching the people. ”
Song Huizong nodded frequently and said, "Yes, redundant officials have always been the most urgent problem for my Great Song Dynasty to solve. ”
Zhao Kai hugged his fists and said: "Father, the son also agrees with what Li Qi said. ”
Li Bangyan stood up again and said, "But if you can guarantee that the people of the Great Song Dynasty will not all go to the business world?" ”
Li Qi smiled: "Merchants and farmers are not separated from each other. ”
Li Bangyan was curious: "What do you mean by this?" ”
Li Qi said: "Business is also agriculture, and agriculture is also business." In other words, a farmer can do business, and a businessman can be a farmer. ”
Song Huizong frowned and said, "You said qingchu." ”
Sweat! Lao Tzu, this is not a qingchu. Li Qi sighed depressedly in his heart, after saying so much, he was already dry, and suddenly said: "Your Majesty, Wei Chen is thirsty, can you give Wei Chen a cup of tea." ”
As soon as these words came out, Wang Hao and others rolled their eyes, and some ministers couldn't help laughing, this person was really Tai Chi.
Song Huizong was stunned for a moment, then reacted, waved his hand and said: "You really have a lot of things, come here, give tea." ”
It was the first time that the eunuch had seen a minister of the previous dynasty openly begging for tea, and he was a little unaccustomed to it, and he couldn't help but seem a little in a hurry, and it could be said that he had gone through a lot of hardships to deliver the pot of tea to Li Qi.
Li Qi drank three cups of tea in a row, and then he eased up, and was about to drink three more cups, when he suddenly heard Song Huizong say: "Do you want to let you eat enough before talking." There was a hint of warning in his voice.
Day. I'm just drinking a few cups of tea, and you're stingy. Li Qi smiled and said, "No, no." ”
Song Huizong said in a deep voice: "Then let's talk about it quickly." ”
"Yes."
Li Qi coughed lightly and said, "Farmers, they also need to eat and drink, and they also need the rest of their daily necessities, so the food they grow is not only for Ziji to eat, but they also have to take it out and sell it, but." They don't know how to do business, a generation of good rice may not be able to sell shime at a good price, this shihou needs the help of merchants, farmers sell the grain to merchants first, and after the merchants process or promote, and then sell to guests, the intermediate profits can be much higher than the original, as long as the merchant's goods sell well, nàme raw materials will naturally follow the price increase, because the world is not a businessman. If the rest of the merchants want to make more money, then they will think about grabbing more raw materials, and if someone grabs them, the price will naturally rise, and the income of the peasants will increase greatly. Let's take Zuixianju as an example, Zuixianju Yijing signed contracts with many fruit farmers and farmers to buy their grain at a high price. ”
Song Moquan suddenly stood up and interrupted Li Qi's speech, and said, "The Drunken Immortal Residence is yours, you use it to talk about things." It is inevitably biased. ”
Day. Your mother's sincerity can't get along with me. Li Qi said angrily: "Then I won't talk about it, and ask Scholar Song to find a way to solve the million-yuan matter." ”
Song Moquan was completely stupid, no, it should be said that he was going crazy.
Actually, don't talk about him. Those conservatives are all angry, and they have a stomach full of reasons to stop Richie, but Richie just makes one move, a million pounds and a shame. They were all temperamental, and could only watch Li Qi boast about the wonders of his reforms.
Song Huizong now heard this million guan, and he felt funny in his heart. said with a straight face: "Master Song only has a slight question, you can answer it for him, don't look left about him." ”
"Yes." Li Qi smiled at Song Moquan and said, "I believe that you have always been at odds with the Golden Building, so I will take the Golden Building as an example, so it will be fair." Jinlou is now launching the cured meat series, among which the cured pork head is particularly popular, it is precisely because of this that the price of the pig head in Pig Killing Alley has risen by nearly 30% compared with before, which is almost more than mutton, which is a reason. ”
Song Huizong smiled slightly, and asked Song Moquan, "Does Master Song still have any questions?" ”
Song Moquan's old face flushed, and he bowed his head and said: "Back to the emperor, Weichen méiyou." ”
A smile flashed in Song Huizong's eyes, and he said to Li Qi again: "Li Aiqing, you go on." ”
Li Qi sang a song, and said: "Improving the status of businessmen is only the first step, the second is to improve the environment of businessmen, Weichen thought that the compassionate business policy adopted by Taizu Shengshang back then was very suitable, as long as it was slightly changed." ”
In Shihou at the beginning of the Song Dynasty, Song Taizu adopted a policy of compassion for merchants, which led to the rapid development of commerce. The most important thing in the early Song Dynasty's mercantile policy was the establishment of a fixed, low commercial tax, and the regular reduction or exemption of transaction tax on some goods.
Everyone's faces changed drastically.
Li Bangyan frowned, stood up and said, "Compassionate business policy? If this policy is implemented, won't it be to reduce commercial taxes? Now that the finances are very tight, if the tax is reduced here, it will not increase the pressure on the treasury even more. ”
"The commercial tax must be lowered, but Weichen thinks that as long as the commercial tax is reasonably reduced, it will only make the treasury more enriched."
"What do you mean by that?"
Li Qi said with a smile: "Let's put it this way, there are a total of ten businessmen, counting the commercial tax and drawing fifty percent, if they make a consistent amount of money a month, that is, each person pays five hundred yuan in taxes, and the total tax is five percent of the money, but if there are one hundred businessmen, each person earns two percent of the money a month, even if I draw one percent of the tax, it is much more than the fifty percent tax, Weichen thinks that we should take a long-term view, and try our best to open up a fair and just environment for businessmen, so that they can thrive, and they will definitely return to the Great Song Dynasty more effectively in the future." In addition, once their business grows, they will have to ask someone to help, and if they need to use their brains, they will naturally need to do it. However, now there are many refugees inside and outside the city, businessmen can gather them and increase production, for those refugees, not to mention wages, as long as there is food and shelter, it is simply a gift from God, it can be said to be a win-win situation, this account is calculated, the country wins, the people win, that is, I win the Song Dynasty.
