Chapter 768: Xie Hong's Currency War

The study was quiet, only Xie Hong's clear words echoed. [No pop-up novel network]

After listening to the content of the whispered translation of the interpreter, the Japanese people have also learned to be obedient, since they know that there is still a follow-up, no one is so ignorant, and they plan to jump out and be bored by themselves. Imai was a clever man who wanted to have fun, but he couldn't find anything to say, and the other party's words were too profound to be beyond his comprehension.

Wang Shouren and Tang Bohu both looked interested, Xie Hong's theory sounded interesting, and it seemed to have some truth, but they needed to think about it. After the ceremony, he also hurriedly explained to the two of them once, but it was not enough for the two to understand each other, and listening to it again was exactly what the two wanted.

"The way to recycle it is simple, and that is taxes!"

Xie Hong stretched out a finger and began to popularize financial knowledge, "Why is Bao Qian not welcomed?" Even the majesty of Emperor Taizu can only be forcibly promoted, and it cannot be used willingly? Because it's useless! Therefore, the treasure money in the past, that is, the white wolf in the empty gloves of the court, is robbing money, of course, no one is happy to be robbed......"

"If there is a recycling mechanism, it will be different. Whether it is farming, business, or workshop, as long as it is in production, it is necessary to pay taxes to the imperial court, if the imperial court explicitly stipulates that only treasure money is required when collecting taxes, then what will happen? ”

"Then the people will naturally find a way to collect treasure money, that is to say......" Imai reacted the fastest, and immediately understood Xie Hong's prompt.

"Mr. Imai is right, in this way, the treasure money will be able to pass through the world." Xie Hong smiled, and looked at Imai with a look of appreciation.

"That's true...... "Imai's bones are crispy, and he feels that his whole body is light and fluttering, as if he is immersed in a hot spring. He tried to explain it to his companions, and the others listened to his explanation and felt that it was reasonable, so they began to discuss it one after another.

This truth is not too profound, nor is it beyond the scope of this era, and the whip method implemented by Zhang Juzheng in the Wanli period in later generations is the same routine, except that he collects silver, and Xie Hong is promoting treasure money. Moreover, the taxes collected by Zhang Juzheng are also relatively simple, only agricultural taxes, but Xie Hong is in full bloom.

In any case, collecting taxes in the form of silver money is much more convenient than the tax in kind implemented by the Ming Dynasty in the past, which is considered a kind of progress, as for the tax in kind from the tax in kind to paper money, will the span be too large...... Well, there are no economists here, so no one will delve into it, even Wang Shouren is slightly bowed, the more he thinks about it, the more subtle he feels, let alone those Japanese people?

After a while, Shengren was the first to wake up, and he had a happy old face, but now he quickly collapsed, "Hou Ye's good law is really clever and beautiful, Xiao Wang is impressed, but the situation of our country is ......."

Recalling a few days ago, the dashing manner of the guide of Daming when he paid the bill, it was impossible not to be envious, but Shengren was not willing to suffer poverty. The taxes of the Wa Kingdom were also mainly agricultural taxes, and those taxes were in the hands of the daimyo in various places, and the small daimyo had to pay a part to the big princes, but whether the latter would be handed over to the imperial court generally depended on the mood.

According to the rules, you have to pay, but those daimyo themselves are also tight. The Ouchi family is rich enough, right? But when Shangluo arrived in Kyoto, he was also empty-handed, all hoping to get a handful in Kyoto, no way, fighting a war is a trick to burn money, the whole country is in full swing, who can have spare money to give to the court.

rules, when the center has no authority, that thing is just an ornament, specially for people to break and play. The way is a good way, but Shengren is indeed powerless.

"That's why your country needs the help of the Ming Dynasty."

Xie Hong took over the topic: "Ben Hou is not shy about saying that with the situation of your country, not to mention that each place has its own government, even if it is not, it is difficult to get rich, Your Highness, please think about it, your country has many mountains and few flat land, the farmland is relatively barren, and other mineral resources are not rich, but it has a large population, and it is really difficult to compare with the sky if you want to develop." ”

The Japanese people all bowed their heads in shame, only Ouchi was quite uneven, and the farmland was just a thing, but the mineral deposits were ...... Nima, you really think that the Ouchi family is an idiot, don't you know who snatched the Iwami Silver Mountain?

Of course, he could only slander two sentences in his stomach, and let him stand up and say clearly that he didn't dare, the Ouchi family was already in danger, and he was here to kneel down and submit to softness, not to find death. What's more, in addition to mineral deposits, those other words are not wrong, even if they are mineral deposits, compared with those of the Ming Dynasty, they are indeed not on the same level.

"Hou Ye said help...... "Shengren didn't have so many distractions in his heart, after so many years of hard work, seeing the hope of getting rid of poverty in front of him, how could he give up?"

"Industry, give full play to the advantages of population, and can not be limited by land resources, the best way is to carry out industrial and commercial construction." Xie Hong said in an accentuated tone: "Industrial construction is not a one-time achievement, and in terms of the technical level of the country itself, it is difficult to achieve it overnight, but there is also a compromise method, that is, to attract foreign investment." ”

There are too many new terms in his words, and it took a long time for the interpreter to explain it clearly, and the Japanese people looked at each other and nodded, the so-called help of the Ming Dynasty should refer to this.

"If you have been to Tianjin, you should have seen the scene there, and what it depends on is industry, don't you want to build a Tianjin in the Japanese country?" Xie Hong's voice was full of temptation, and the group of widows led by Shengren nodded subconsciously, and said again and again: "Think, why don't you want to?" ”

"I want to take action, first of all, I have to be in Jinai, well, it is north of Kaimachi, the geographical location there is good, and it is just right to set aside a special zone to facilitate Daming businessmen to invest in building factories......" Xie Hong suddenly smiled, waved his hand and said: "Of course, when Daming merchants arrive in your country, they will also pay taxes according to the rules of your country." ”

"This ......" Katsuhito's mood was not so relaxed, this pie was too big. The merchants of the Ming Dynasty came to build factories in the country, and then they would pay taxes! And all you need to pay is to carve out a piece of wasteland, oh, and allow the other party to hire workers, is it possible?

"Master Hou, in this case, will your country suffer too much? Are the businessmen of your country willing to ...... "I have been a businessman for half my life and have saved a huge industry, Imai knows the truth that cheap is not greedy, and such a big bargain, how unrealistic it sounds." Even if it were true, the terms of exchange would probably not be something that the Japanese could afford.

"It's okay, it's all for the friendship between the two countries." Xie Hong smiled and waved his hand, "Of course, there must be some requirements, the merchants of the Ming Dynasty are all righteous businessmen, and they have crossed the ocean to your country to help your country build, this intention is very rare, so you should enjoy some preferential treatment, such as diplomatic immunity and the like." ”

"Yes, yes, we must treat your country's righteous businessmen as guests and enjoy the treatment of a daimyo, no, a minister." Katsuhito had no objections.

"In addition, since it is a special zone, your country must also restrain itself, and it must not be allowed, nor can it enter and interfere......" Xie Hong continued to demand.

"That's nature." Katsuhito agreed in a panic. Jokes, people are sending money, what else is there to interfere with? You know, the current Kaimachi is also like this, those businessmen are united, and even Hosokawa, the leader with real power, dare not provoke, what is the difference between this special zone and Kinai now? One more is not much!

"It's just ......" Thinking of this, he hesitated a little, "Master Hou also knows that it is easy to talk about this side of Jinai, but the surrounding daimyo is ...... In addition, there are still some unrestrained pirates on the sea, if they don't know what to do, then Xiao Wang is helpless. ”

"It's easy to say, didn't Ben Hou say it? The implementation of treasure money is conducive to the pacification of civil strife in your country, do you think Ben Hou is joking? Think about it, when the Osaka Special Zone is built, how can those daimyo not be hot? After their eyes are hot, they only have two ways, one is to grab it directly, and the other is to find a way to follow suit......"

Xie Hong's voice turned cold, and he said hesitantly: "The mission of the Governor's Mansion of the Japanese Dynasty is to maintain peace in the East China Sea, with the East China Sea Master here, hum, those who came to rob it are just asking for their own death, Ben Hou will let them know how terrible the thunder anger of the Great Tomorrow is!" ”

"Hey, hey......" was pulled back to reality from the illusion, and when he thought of the scene of a hundred cannons firing in unison, the Japanese people's faces were covered with cold sweat.

"Find a way to emulate, hehe, Ben Hou is not boasting, the technical content of the workshop built in your country may not be very high, but without the guidance of the master of the Ming Dynasty, at least in recent years, it is impossible to emulate. In this way, the opportunity has arisen, and the Marquis will entrust the power to attract investment in the hands of His Highness......"

"Huh? Master Hou, is this true? "Shengren's eyes are shining, his body is shaking, Lord Ming really didn't lie, if he has such power, it may be a little far away to pacify the civil strife, but the revitalization of the royal family is only in sight.

"How can such a big thing be joked?" Xie Hong smiled slightly and continued: "After the workshop is completed, the idle labor in various places will be fully utilized, and then Your Majesty will take advantage of the trend to implement the national treasure banknote, because the workshop is taxable, and those workers also have to pay personal income tax...... In this way, will the revitalization of the Wa Kingdom be far away? ”

Xie Hong had already fooled the Japanese people into a state, and a group of people were all bright-eyed, looking forward to a better future, and they didn't notice other movements at all, and they didn't even pay attention to the whispers of Wang and Tang.

"Brother Bo'an, what Brother Xie said sounds really tempting, if the younger brother hadn't known about it a long time ago, he would definitely be tempted. However, the younger brother knows that there is a trap in this, but he can't analyze it, where is this trap, Brother Bo'an, do you know? ”

Wang Shouren shook his head slowly, and sighed: "I don't know, Brother Shouheng has always acted unexpectedly, and this so-called currency war is its pinnacle of creation, not to mention the foolish brother, those in the business school who study this study every day are at a loss, you and I just look at it, and there will be a day when the water will come out." ”
