Chapter 253: The "Stock Exchange" of the Song Dynasty!
There is no doubt that the book "Tang Brick" is a classic work of the historical classification of the starting point Chinese network, and it also achieved the great god of history and the book 2 to seal the gods, and then the follow-up creation went to the next level and became the pioneering work of the N01 god of historical classification.
It is strange for "Tang Brick", but countless readers are divided into two extremes, when Zhu Zilong read this book, it also made the major forums and book reviews confused.
Some people say that the protagonist is too pretty, and some people say that the protagonist will be too white, and he is simply omnipotent. Before the protagonist crossed over, he was obviously just an ordinary person, but after the Tang Dynasty, he was like Zhuge Liang and the great inventor Edison?
If it is really so hanging, it should be in the 21st century of New China before the crossing, and he would have become the richest man or a super successful person, right?
Some people say that the protagonist in it is too undignified to be kicked around. There is no domineering feeling at all!
However, Zhu Zilong unexpectedly discovered an interesting phenomenon. For this good historical book, most of the readers who say that the gods are over 30+ years old or around, accounting for the majority.
In fact, it's normal to think about it, this book is really not very suitable for people who are too young to read, the main reason is that the author himself is a 40+ married family man, and young people will not be too interested in the description of ordinary life.
But people in their 30s, or people with similar personalities, resonate at first glance. The style of writing is brisk, the characters are full of personalities, and the family and affection are written warmly, occasionally mixed with a little blood and stallions. Isn't it just the idea of liking wives, children, and hot bedside Chinese-style marriage men?
Zhu Zilong personally thinks. The most successful character in that book is not the main character. It's Tang Taizong Li Shimin!
A conceited, stern and black-bellied elder often knocks you on the stick and praises you a few words. Of course, only this kind of decisiveness, ruthlessness when you want to be ruthless, warmth when you want warmth, intelligence and intelligence, and a monarch with ideas and ideas, can lead a country on the right path, right?
In contrast, Zhu Zilong's current cheap emperor father Song Huizong Zhao Ji is simply two extremes.
However, it is precisely because Song Huizong and Zhao Ji are weak that Zhu Zilong has a chance to develop. It's also tangled to think about it!
-
Of course, Zhu Zilong's recollection of Tang bricks now is not to appreciate the joy of the characters in it, pretending to be Wenqing.
Looking outside the house, a cart of mineral salt and river salt crystals on the side of the Yellow River were pulled over. Zhu Zilong immediately asked people to pull up the work area and divide it.
After a careful examination, Zhu Zilong had to admire the author of Tang Brick.
The great god must have traveled to these similar places, but he is not like a second-cargo otaku like himself before the crossing. I have only been to a few places, and these mineral salts are indeed as the protagonist of Tang Brick said, full of impurities such as nitrate, phosphorus and potassium impurities.
It may be because there is more pollution by the Yellow River every day, and of course, there must be geological reasons. This kind of salt, to be precise, should be regarded as river beach stone salt.
If you eat the nitrate that the salt in it is not raised, you may be able to hold out for a while, but if you eat too much phosphorus and potassium, there will be a big problem in a short time.
"Lord Wang, why did we bring so much poisonous salt back?" Others didn't dare to ask, but this did not include Comrade Lao Jin, Zhu Zilong's henchman, so he asked quietly on the side.
Most of this salt has not been transported to the most important forbidden area of the work area, so Zhu Zilong's current operation can also allow many subordinates and henchmen to come over to help.
Seeing Steward Jin ask, Zhu Zilong smiled and replied quietly: "This king wants fine salt to be of great use, and you don't know the price of salt on the market." So, I'm going to detoxify these poisonous salts and turn them into fine edible salts! ”
As soon as Zhu Zilong's words fell, the expression of the golden steward over there changed greatly, as if he was gasping. Only joy, even more surprise!
Asked tightly: "Lord Wang, is there a way to depoison this poisonous salt?" Could it be that we are going to sell smuggled salt? ”
You must know that in the huge financial revenue of the Great Song Empire, the commercial tax is not the big one, and the agricultural tax has always occupied an important position.
Just last month, Cai Jing reported to work and said, Your Majesty, your income comes from two taxes. This is official news, and it is also in the newspapers.
Roughly speaking, the two taxes that year were 57 million yuan. Of course, the commercial tax here only refers to private commerce. The "official business" directly handled by the state is not included in this list.
In particular, the monopoly of salt, in order to control the income of salt, selling salt without permission is to kill the head. The royal relatives are not exempt!
Of course, Zhu Zilong knew what Steward Jin thought, but in fact, he also thought about it at the beginning. After thinking about it, I decided to revise the plan. At that moment, the butler Chongjin replied: "This king didn't say that he wanted to sell smuggled salt, what are you afraid of." I just want to experiment with how to purify and remove poison, and if this method is successful, I will dedicate it to my father. When the time comes, it is enough to ask for the management rights of the salt introduction of the first few years of the new salt. Perhaps, there will be other benefits. ”
Hearing the answer, Steward Jin showed an expression of joy greater than surprise, oh. A heart falls!
He thought about what Zhu Zilong had said before, he wanted to open a bank, and when the time was ripe, he wanted to issue silver tickets. Steward Jin knew that he was touching his own prince, and this was the idea of playing salt money. When you have a customer network and the support from above, and then open a money bank, it will be a matter of course and there will be a lot less trouble.
I have to say that Butler Jin is indeed ginger or old spicy. really guessed Zhu Zilong's current thoughts, and guessed that eight or nine are not far from ten!
In fact, the ancestors of the Song Dynasty have played similar things for a long time. Later generations of Westerners are just playing Chinese and not wanting to play.
There was a "stock exchange" in the Song Dynasty!
However, it is not a pawnshop and money bank in the general sense, it is almost equivalent to a stock exchange in the 21st century in terms of function and operation!
Although there are no stock index futures and other dazzling things in the "stock exchange" of the Great Song Dynasty, the commodities traded here are not far behind.
It is specifically for various commodities, and is called a kind of indirect monopoly practice of salt, tea, alum, incense, rhino and other securities.
The whole process of the transaction is as follows: the merchant pays cash to the government-set up goods service in exchange for a cross-reference, and then uses this cross-quote to pick up salt tea and other commercial goods at a designated place, and then transports the goods to the market to sell, or exchange for other kinds of goods.
Therefore, Zhu Zilong was surprised when he heard about it at that time.
Isn't this the practice of first submitting the guarantee for registration, then obtaining the valuation certificate, and finally using the certificate to finance and then changing hands? What is the difference between the stock market and the 21st century? In essence, there is no difference, but there is also an element of taking it home and weighting it.
If you want to talk about the difference, it is estimated that it is in the valuation, and it will be a fool if something suddenly goes wrong. However, for more than a hundred years, there were many smart people in the Song Dynasty.
Together, they invented the "compromise method", which was created to solve the problem of the lack of military supplies for the border guards: for example, in order to attract merchants to go to the border to pay for grain, the Song government valued this part much higher than the market price.
The portion above the market price creates a large spread, and this valuation is called "inflated", while the actual market price of each commodity is called "actual valuation".
The face value of all kinds of banknotes similar to stocks is composed of "actual valuation" and "false valuation", which is what the Song Dynasty cross-quoted.
