Chapter 1880: You're a Rich Man

"I want to... I don't think Han Yi thought that someone would see through his whole plan. ”

Cui Jijian suddenly laughed.

Cui Pingzhong pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "No matter how smart he is, he may not be able to think of this, because he would not think that anyone is willing to spend ten years studying him as a person, but if it is not so, it will be difficult to see through his entire plan." However, I'm more curious about him now, he's like a fan. ”

Cui Jijian frowned and said, "But Daddy, you have already seen through his entire plan. ”

Cui Pingzhong said: "I'm talking about him, how old is Han Yi now?" But the intelligence he showed was so amazing, even incredible, it seems that there has never been such a genius as him throughout the ages, and the more you get to know him, the more you will feel that this person is bottomless, he is like a fog, with too much magic and darkness. ”

Cui Jijian frowned and said, "Daddy won't think he's an immortal, right?" ”

Cui Pingzhong laughed and said: "I won't tell you, I really thought so, but he is uncompromising in many things, and there is no difference between him and other powerful ministers, his hands are also stained with blood, from this point of view, he is more like a person than us!" Alas... Maybe he's a genius. As he spoke, he shook his head with a smile, and suddenly remembered something, "You wait!" ”

So saying, he got up, went to his closet, opened it, took out a bag from it, and laid it on the table.

"What is this?"

Cui Jijian said curiously.

Cui Pingzhong said: "This is something I have written in the past few years. ”

Cui Jijian opened it and saw that there was a stack of books inside, but it was obviously not printed, it was a handwritten book, and he frowned, "Confucianism and business?" ”

Cui Pingzhong said: "I have just said that Han Yi is to break through the traditional thinking and establish new ideas, and the traditional thoughts of my Central Plains are actually Confucianism and Taoism, I am worried that Confucianism and Taoism will be greatly impacted by then, and, on the other hand, businessmen are always mercenary, and they must be restrained, otherwise, everyone in the world will become mercenary, which is also very terrible."

I think that the ideas of Confucianism and Taoism can resolve the contradiction with the characteristics of businessmen, but if you want to be convinced by businessmen, first of all, the ideas of Confucianism and Taoism should be supported by businessmen. The content of this is that I incorporated the ideas of merchants into the ideas of Confucianism and Taoism, and used Confucianism and Taoism to explain the merchant class. First, it can provide an ideological basis for the rise of businessmen, and second, the status of businessmen is still relatively low, and they must also hope to be recognized by traditional ideas, but once they are recognized, and they themselves agree, then they must also be bound by the two ideas. ”

Cui Jijian was surprised: "I didn't expect my father to think about it so carefully, I'm afraid even Han Yi didn't think of this?" ”

Cui Pingzhong said with a smile: "He has already thought that the sacred gentleman's contract is not a combination of Confucianism and business, but he is probably a little powerless in this regard, and I am not without spending too much energy, because I write these things, in fact, they are all from one person?" ”

"Han Ye?"

"Of course not." Cui Pingzhong smiled and said: "Han Yi has done so many things that hurt nature and reason, how can he represent Confucianism and Taoism, it is a good deed." ”

"Good deeds?"

"Hmm." Cui Pingzhong said: "Shanxing has been deeply influenced by Confucianism since childhood, has a good character, and is a veritable humble gentleman, but he is also a very successful businessman, which is enough to prove that Confucianism and Taoism can be combined with business, and it helps the development of businessmen." He is honest and trustworthy, values his own reputation, is diligent and thrifty, and is willing to give, these are all advocated by Confucianism and Taoism, and these also help a businessman to succeed, a businessman who has no faith is impossible to succeed, a businessman with a bad reputation cannot succeed, and a businessman who does not have the idea of benevolence is also difficult to achieve great success, and the benevolence of good deeds has made him gain fame, loyalty and more wealth, and can make him see more long-term. ”

Cui Jijian smiled: "If you let Shanxing know that Daddy is so praised, he will definitely blush." ”

Cui Pingzhong laughed and said, "But these articles can't be from you, you have to convince your uncle to send these articles." ”

Cui Jijian frowned and said, "Why? ”

Cui Pingzhong said: "You are an important minister, if it is from you, then everyone is looking for political goals from it, your uncle is just a scholar with a relatively high prestige, from them, it is purely an ideological discussion." ”

Cui Jijian said: "But uncle, how can they speak for the businessman?" ”

Cui Pingzhong smiled: "You are also a big businessman now!" There are also many people in our Cui family who have started to do business, and there are many scholars who are more or less involved in commerce, which is the trend of the times, but they all have to be concealed, because they have always been anti-business, if Confucianism and Taoism are combined with business, and Confucianism and Taoism are used to guide businessmen, they will be able to go down the ladder, and traditional ideas will not only not be impacted, but will be supported by the industrial and commercial class. In terms of the current situation, this is actually good for everyone. ”

Cui Jijian nodded and said, "The child knows." ”

.....

.....

Liangyi Palace.

"That's your idea!"

Li Zhi looked at Han Yi with a smile.

Han Yi closed the concert and said with a slight surprise: "How did Your Majesty know that this was Wei Chen's idea?" ”

Li Zhi said: "I have watched Yan Liben's recital for more than ten years, can't I see this?" If you want to talk about this drawing, I believe that Yan Liben drew it, but the content in the piece must have been taught by you. ”

"Your Majesty Shengming!" Han Yi sneered: "This --- is indeed a minister's teaching, but first Yan Shangshu took the initiative to ask the minister for advice, and the minister taught him to write like this, and the minister did not intend to hide it from His Majesty." ”

Li Zhidao: "In other words, you also think that the construction in the city should be re-planned?" ”

Han Yi nodded.

Li Zhi looked at Han Yi with very strange eyes and said, "In other words, the household can still get so much money." ”

"Uh..."

Han Yi said: "The household department can't come up with so much money, but Your Majesty, you can't get it." ”

When Li Zhi heard this, tears were about to flow out, and he said, "Where can I get the money?" ”

He may be the poorest second-generation monarch in history, he did take out all his old books in that crisis, he is a frugal emperor, thrift is a habit for him, which is also a very important reason why he is willing to pay taxes.

Han Yi said with a smile: "Your Majesty, have you forgotten one thing?" ”

Li Zhi was surprised: "What's the matter?" ”

Han Yi said: "It's just hoarding copper!" ”

"Hoarding copper?"

Li Zhi looked at Han Yi in confusion.

Han Yizhi nodded and said: "Your Majesty still remembers that in order to help the people of Tuyuhun restore their livelihoods, the minister suggested buying a large amount of salt from Tuyuhun, which caused a salt and iron controversy, and His Majesty finally adopted the minister's suggestion and did not make the salt and iron official, but the minister proposed to quietly run the copper mine and hoard a large number of copper ore, because the minister believed that with the development of commerce, currency will become very important, and when the currency rises, we will make a fortune." ”

Li Zhi suddenly realized, slapped the table, and said: "There is this thing, there is this thing, I remember it all." How? How much copper do we have now? ”

Han Yi said: "Twenty million? ”

"How much more--- more?"

Li Zhi was so trembling that he couldn't even speak clearly.

"To be exact, it is copper that can produce 20 million copper coins."

Li Zhi took a sharp breath and almost cried with joy, it turns out that I am a rich emperor! He pointed at Han Yi angrily and said, "Why didn't you tell me earlier." ”

Han Yi said: "The minister thinks that Your Majesty has always remembered this, because the people who manage this matter are all sent by Your Majesty to help Wei Chen, and this is not a trivial matter, the minister did not expect that Your Majesty You have completely forgotten about this matter, Your Majesty is really high-spirited, and you regard wealth as a floating cloud, and Wei Chen is really admired." ”

High Wind Bright Festival? You don't fool me, now you don't have any money, but it's hard to move an inch! A flash of embarrassment flashed in Li Zhi's eyes, and he said: "I remember that I gave you full authority for this task at the beginning, I manage such a big country, how can I remember everything clearly, and this is not a major national event, you should remind me that it is." ”

Han Yi said: "Your Majesty's blame is that this is all a dereliction of duty. ”

However, there are 20 million runs, how could Li Zhi care about these things with Han Yi, and said: "There are really 20 million runs?" ”

Han Yi nodded and said, "Implementing Yan Shangshu's plan is more than enough." ”

Li Zhi began to be silent, he originally thought that the finances were in debt, and if Han Yi wanted to support it, it must be that Han Yi had a way to get money, in this case, then of course he didn't care, but now the situation is that he has money, this has to be reconsidered, and said: "Now that the finances are so difficult, this matter should be pushed back in the future, and then do these things after the treasury is full, and use this money on the blade first." ”

He didn't covet this money, he thought that other aspects of the country would need money, such as the dispute with Tibet, and he had always been more reluctant to build a large construction project in the imperial court, and he would not be in a hurry about this kind of thing.

Push push, push your sister! If I hadn't been sure to fool you into agreeing, I wouldn't have said it. Han Yi said: "Your Majesty, this is copper, not food, and it is useless to put it at home. He had to use the money before it had to be valuable. Moreover, the imperial court can make a profit from it, and the profit is very huge. ”

Li Zhi was curious: "How can this be profitable?" ”

Han Yi said: "Your Majesty, according to Yan Shangshu's design, it is possible to vacate a large amount of public land, because the fang wall occupies too much land, and these lands are not private, naturally they belong to the imperial court, and now the population in the city has doubled, and the demand for housing is very large, so the housing prices will naturally rise, and the imperial court can take these vacant land and sell it to builders to build houses, and if the imperial court allows the construction of buildings, the land price can be doubled." There is also a huge amount of stamp duty, and as for the stamp duty obtained from the open curfew, the minister does not bother to say it. However, this is all secondary, and His Majesty can also ignore it, and the minister has been thinking about the issue of currency recently, and the minister has thought of a method of issuance, which can make the court obtain several times the profit. ”

Li Zhi hurriedly asked, "What way?" ”

Han Yi said: "Make vouchers legal tender. ”
