Chapter 1129: Wang Ning'an's Means
Wang Ningan's conversation at the political meeting undoubtedly threw a boulder, and even threw Mount Tai into the sea of eunuchs, and the ripples can be imagined, but the turmoil was too big, and many people couldn't react.
It was Wang Ning'an, everything was planned, and he called several ministers in the political hall, that is, his apprentices, over.
"I won't say much about how many problems there are in Da Song right now, you have a number in your hearts...... We need to build a relatively fair environment, but this is easier said than done. Not only to have power in hand, but also to grasp resources, control finance, can dominate key industries, in a word, we must have strong power! Without power, there is no way to maintain basic fairness! ”
The teacher's words were insightful, and several people nodded frequently.
"But......" Wang Ning'an's words changed, "With so many resources in our hands, can we control them well?" Will there be a situation of malpractice for personal gain, greed and harm to the people? Once there is any problem, the final blame will fall on the political affairs hall, on the heads of you and my master and apprentice, where to go, have you ever thought about it? ”
Lu Huiqing immediately stood up, "Of course I thought about it, don't be afraid of the heat when you enter the kitchen, and if you take power, you have to shoulder the responsibility." In the final analysis, it is necessary to strictly govern the officials, vigorously suppress corruption, and win the trust of the people! ”
Zhang Dian also said: "What Brother Jifu said is to eliminate disadvantages, but also to prosper, to select capable officials, to give them power and resources, we must make achievements, to the people, to the court satisfactory explanation." ”
The rest of the people also spoke one after another, basically saying everything that needs attention.
"Anyone can say anything, the key is how to implement it, you have to have a strategy." Wang Ningan admonished: "There is not much time left for us, go down immediately, prepare separately, be sure to fight this battle well, only win, not lose!" ”
The apprentices went down, and Wang Ningan only left Lu Huiqing and Zhang Dun.
"Jifu, Zihou, do you know what I mean?"
Lu Huiqing was stunned for a moment, "Let's ask Brother Zihou to speak first!" ”
"Say it first, say it first!" Zhang Dian said: "Cutting off people's financial routes, such as killing their parents, Master's move is simply digging the ancestral graves of countless people, can they not fight back?" We must not only implement the matter, but also guard against open guns and hidden arrows, which is really like walking on thin ice and facing the abyss! ”
"Zihou is right." Wang Ningan said solemnly: "The enemy's counterattack will come soon, maybe it has been launched at this moment, things can be done below, you must be vigilant enough to deal with emergencies at any time!" ”
The two men nodded together.
"By the way, you listen to me, at this time, everything is focused on the overall situation, even if it is our people, if we fight with each other, we will never be lenient!"
"Understood, please rest assured, Master."
Wang Ningan explained, and the three masters and apprentices all entered the battle state.
Not to mention, just after Wang Ning'an's talk, the newspaper that night reported it and spread wildly, and all kinds of voices came out at once.
Even more frightening is the turmoil in financial markets.
When they heard that the bank was going to be taken over by the imperial court, the bank stocks, mainly the Great Song Savings Bank, fell sharply in an instant, and there were people selling everywhere.
They didn't believe at all that the imperial court could run a good bank.
Many commentators even directly asserted that the imperial court has a huge deficit, this is a round of blatant robbery, it is better than the king of the mountain, if you don't run for your life now, you will have no chance, and you will only be swallowed by the imperial court with your belt and bones...... The words are scary enough, and sure enough, many people were frightened, and the outside of the bank was full of people who heard the news, and they all came to withdraw their deposits.
The squeezed depositors, crowded with people, kept crowding, desperately screaming, as the crowd grew, it was ten times more serious than the terrifying Spring Festival.
"Brother Zizhan, they did it!"
Murong Qingchen, who was unofficial and light, took the initiative to invite Su Shi out to eat roast duck, and the two of them looked out from the private seat, and the streets were full of hurried people, and everyone's face was full of fear.
The people are uneasy, what is King Qin going to do?
"Isn't government about appeasing the people? Is it appropriate to disturb the people in this way? ”
Da Su smiled, "I said Murong, aren't you specifically against civil officials in the council meeting?" Why did you think about it for the civil officials at this time? ”
"What does it mean to think about civil officials, I am doing this for the people!"
Su Shi shook his head, "Murong, what do you say my brother-in-law is going to collect this time?" ”
"I've read the briefings, and there are transportation, finance, education, drinking water, energy, ...... All in all, they are closely related to people's livelihood. ”
"Well said!"
Su Shi looked at it and pointed to the steam train outside.
This is the most popular way to travel in Xijing at the moment.
As a huge city, how to run in an orderly manner is a very test of intelligence, even the simplest food, clothing, housing and transportation, huge to a certain extent, will become quite terrifying.
Take Luoyang as an example, in recent years, the industry has developed rapidly, and a large number of workers flock to the factory from all directions every day, and after a day of work, they return again.
How do you get workers to arrive on time?
Leaning on the four-wheeled carriage of the past?
No, the carrying capacity of the four-wheeled carriage is too poor, and it is prone to congestion, and the price is high, which is not affordable for ordinary workers.
During Cai Jing's tenure as the prefect of Luoyang, he introduced the steam train, and he drew a special lane on the road, added simple rails, and arranged for the steam train to travel on it.
These small trains are not fast, but they can carry an amazing number of people, a few hundred people in one car, and a thousand people in five cars.
Although crowded and uncomfortable, it was cheap, fast, and popular with workers, and even many citizens traveled by steam trains.
"Murong, you said, if you are in a hurry to go to work and someone raises the fare, will you take the car?"
"This ...... According to my temper, I guess I will beat the conductor and send him to justice. However, if you change to an ordinary worker, you should be reluctant to admit your bad luck! ”
Da Su nodded, "That's right, this is the drawback that my brother-in-law wants to eradicate." ”
"I want to hear the high opinions!"
"It's not a lofty theory, there are many such examples, let's just say that the salt for thousands of years, because no one can do without it, so the implementation of salt and iron monopoly can maximize the wealth of the people. We hope that the people will live a little better, in addition to paying for the necessities of life, but also have a little surplus, so that the family can live with peace of mind, if the salt is a little bit, the drinking water is a little bit, the food is a little bit, and the travel is a little more...... All of these add up, adding up to a huge amount of expenditure, and have to be spent, the burden is so heavy, how can the people live happily, and it is inevitable that the people's grievances will boil. ”
Murong is so smart, he just doesn't think about it, and after Su Shi's suggestion, he immediately understands.
You give traffic to merchants, and businessmen, chasing to maximize profits, will definitely desperately raise fares...... Can ordinary people afford to refuse?
Of course not, because travel is different, and you can't have your own choice. If you don't like to look at the gate, you can watch Shoufu, if you don't like to look at Shoufu, you can watch Hanming (quack...... )。 The roads are so wide, there are so many lanes, and there are only a few trains.
Because of the natural monopoly, it is impossible for some industries to fully compete, and it is inevitable that the people will suffer losses.
"From the beginning of the establishment of the steam train, it was led by the Luoyang Mansion, and because of this, most of the corners of the city can be opened to traffic, and the fare of the whole city is the same. What will they do if they are handed over to the merchants? The lines that don't make money will stop, and the lines that make money will desperately raise the fare, Murong, do you say that's okay? ”
"Of course not!"
Murong finally realized the seriousness of the matter, there is such a big article in just travel, and the rest of the energy, education, and finance...... It's chilling to think about!
King Qin wants to take it back to the imperial court, he is definitely wise and wise, and it is really right to do so!
"I, I've begun to worship King Qin." He said seriously.
Su Shi was very stinky, "There are many people who worship my brother-in-law, and you alone are nothing."
It's just that after being proud, Su Shi quickly became worried.
"See, my brother-in-law just took action, and people took the lead, creating panic, inciting the people, running on the banks, and paralyzing the financial ...... They played smoothly enough. “
"Humph!"
Murong said disdainfully: "What's so difficult about this, just give an order, let the people return home, count the bank deposits, and repay the people." ”
When Su Shi heard this, he smiled bitterly.
"If you do this, the Great Song Dynasty will be finished immediately."
"So what's going to do?"
"It's still the same sentence, let's watch the show slowly!"
This scene didn't last long, and from the next day, there were more and more people, and the long queue was several miles away, and some people simply didn't leave at night and slept directly on the streets.
And this panic spread out from Luoyang, and neighboring Kaifeng was the first to be hit, and the crowd of people, like a flash flood, rushed to the bank...... The monstrous crowd is infinite anger!
Wang Ningan, what can you do to deal with it?
"Master, hurry up and stop it!"
Sima Guang looked in the direction of Xijing and sighed heavily.
He really doesn't want to tear the last layer of face with Wang Ning'an, and he doesn't want to watch the teacher's reputation and future festivals, but the time has come when the two sides are endless, what can he do?
Everyone is speculating, can Wang Ningan hold on?
Who knows, Wang Ningan is about to laugh out loud.
He didn't expect that the other party would be so stupid.
Have you forgotten, Lao Tzu is the ancestor of financial warfare, you are almost on fire!
"Tell Cai Jing and let Luoyang Mansion do its best to maintain order." Wang Ningan looked at Zeng Bu and asked, "How is the stock market now, and how are bank stocks?" ”
"Of course, it fell in response, and it has fallen by nearly thirty percent!"
"Hmmm! Dropped out well! Wang Ningan smiled indifferently, "When the time comes, immediately dispatch funds and give me a copy!" Let's eat a few first! ”
Zeng Bu almost laughed out loud, Master, you are really good!
"Disciple obeys, please rest assured, Master, I will definitely use the lowest price to bring the bank!"
