Chapter 589: Tax Vouchers

Treasury bonds are excellent, bonds issued by the state on the basis of national credit, and debt certificates that promise to pay interest and repay the principal at maturity for a certain period of time. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info because of the state tax as a guarantee, there is no need to fear the debtor escaping. It's just that Lu Chengqi didn't expect that what he thought was good would be unanimously opposed by the three of them.

Lu Chengqi originally thought that Su Shi was supporting him, but unexpectedly, Su Shi also stood up and objected: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks this move is inappropriate!" The court borrowed debts, didn't it make the people mistakenly think that the court could not support it? In this way, I am afraid that disasters will arise everywhere! ”

I have to admit that what Su Shi said is very reasonable. Lu Chengqi really did not take into account the mentality of the people at this time, although the national debt is good, but there is no such concept, no matter how good things are, they are just more misunderstood. Just like the commercial insurance of later generations, because in the early years, some unqualified salesmen stalked and beat up, so that everyone in danger made the word "selling insurance" become a street rat that everyone shouted and beaten. In fact, the meaning of buying insurance is far better than keeping money in the bank, as long as there is no accident during the policy period, not only the principal will be returned, but also the interest. It's simply a boon for the poor, but the industry's reputation is all stinking, and how long will it take to get people to change their mindsets? Lu Chengqi not only wants to engage in national bonds, but also wants to get insurance! It's just that people's concept of financial management is weak now, and if you want to make it large, you may not be able to live a lifetime.

It is imperative to change people's mindsets. As long as the concept is right, there is no fear that no amount of national debt will be sold. What's more, Lu Chengqi also has a killer feature. As long as the businessmen who buy treasury bonds can immediately obtain the qualification for scientific examination. This is a benefit that is difficult to buy, as long as it is used, I am not afraid that those businessmen will not buy it. However, this trick can only be effective in the short term, and after a long time, the concept will not change, and it will not be able to be sold.

Lu Chengqi nodded and said, "What the three Qing families said is reasonable, and this is just my initial idea. According to the three secretaries, the biggest obstacle to the national debt is the people's perception. In fact, it is also very easy to do, it is nothing more than a name to cause trouble. If it is changed to 'tax coupon', what do you think of the three secretaries? ”

Speaking of which, in fact, everyone knows it. Xu Chongguang knew that it was impossible to force the little emperor to obey by relying on a few people. In the court, in addition to the pro-him faction, there is also the pro-little emperor faction, and there is also the neutral faction. Even within the civilian clique, there are many struggles. It's all at this point, how can we work together to continue to suppress the martial artists?

Lin Zhenzhong didn't speak, he just used the topic to play. In fact, with the surplus money from the national treasury, it is not a problem to survive the autumn harvest, but it is just to open up sources and reduce expenditure. Continue to develop taxes, save a little spending, and last until the autumn harvest is not a big problem. Hearing Lu Chengqi say this, he was very disappointed. Since the Qin and Han dynasties, the status of literati has fluctuated. Now in the Dashun Dynasty, the status of the literati has finally stabilized, but unexpectedly it was overthrown by the emperor of the dynasty. How can he not be worried about such a situation?

Only Su Shi thought about it seriously and said, "Your Majesty, this name is better than before." Just ......"

"Just what?" Lu Chengqi asked with a frown.

"It's just that the people don't understand, and I'm afraid it's not easy to sell." Su Shi said bluntly, the tax coupon sounds lofty, but the people don't eat it!

Lu Chengqi said with a smile: "There is no need to worry about this at all, as long as there is "Dashun Minbao", this tax coupon will not be sold." What's more, it's not that the principal is not returned, and there is interest! The most important interests of businessmen are like an old cat with a salted fish, where will it be released for the next day? Coupled with the publicity of "Da Shun Min Daily", I am afraid that the tax coupons are not enough to sell is true! ”

"I hope so!" Su Shi is still not at ease, in his opinion, how much can such paper be worth? It was beyond his imagination that he could exchange money for silver.

Lu Chengqi also remembered the hunger marketing engaged in by a certain fruit mobile phone in the United States in the later generations, and it was first launched in other places, but it was not launched in China. If you get a parallel mobile phone, it will be several times higher than the original price. Later, a domestic mobile phone also learned this trick and specialized in pitting Chinese people. Such high-end and low-cost mobile phones only live in advertising. You'll never be able to grab the real thing. Even if you can grab it, it's half a year, and it's more than half a year later. At that time, the price of the original material fell, and a certain rice was saved.

Although this kind of hunger marketing is not good, Lu Chengqi is determined to learn from it. The issued tax coupons (government bonds) are also sold in limited quantities. Let the household department count out the approximate shortfall of how much silver, and how much tax coupons will be issued. While supplies last, each person is limited to five tickets, so please buy early. This first shot is always going to be fired, even if the interest rate is a little higher. Anyway, in a year the treasury will have money, and repayment is not a problem.

After the reputation of tax coupons is out, are you still afraid that no one will make such a high-return, low-risk investment? I'm afraid that those rich businessmen and rich gentry rushed to buy it, and cried that they couldn't buy enough!

After Lu Chengqi slowly revealed all his thoughts, Xu Chongguang and Lin Zhenzhong were both from the household department, so they didn't know that the little emperor's move was too ruthless. actually want to let the businessmen pay the treasury, isn't this sarcastic for their civil officials, even the businessmen are not as good?

Thinking of this, Xu Chongguang still had to struggle: "Your Majesty, this matter is very important, and I am afraid that something is wrong with making such a rash will." ”

Lu Chengqi also gave him enough face, after all, he was the first assistant of the cabinet: "What does Xu Qing mean?" ”

"The minister didn't dare, he just wanted to discuss this matter and brainstorm ideas. His Majesty often said that three pi generals are better than one Zhuge Liang. Discussing this matter in the court meeting will certainly make this law more perfect. Xu Chongguang said unhurriedly, observing Lu Chengqi's face as he spoke.

Lu Chengqi "listened" carefully for a while before he said slowly: "Xu Qing's words are extremely kind! There are still three days to go until the next regular pilgrimage. Yes, this period of time is enough for "Dashun Minbao" to spread all corners of Dashun. ”

Lin Zhenzhong was stunned: "Your Majesty wants to make this matter public?" ”

Lu Chengqi said: "Why not? ”

Before the court meeting began, it was hurriedly published in the newspaper. If the court does not pass this law, will your majesty not be discredited? At that time, not only the prestige of the imperial court will be damaged, but also the prestige of His Majesty......" Lin Zhenzhong hurriedly stopped, to be honest, he didn't like any "tax coupons". The agricultural tax has been reduced so low that the silver that has been spent in vain is not collected, and it is necessary to borrow money to get by. Even if you borrow money, you still have to pay it back with interest. If you want to increase the revenue of the national treasury, why bother with this and just increase the agricultural tax. Anyway, the people of the Central Plains are used to being oppressed, so it shouldn't be a trouble to charge more......

Lu Chengqi didn't know what was going around in Lin Zhenzhong's mind, and when he saw the move, he said: "The result of the court meeting is important, but I value the opinions of the people more. The matter was decided, and the court would discuss it three days later. If the three Qing families are fine, they will step down. It's nearly noon, and I'm going to eat. Why don't all three of you stay here and dine with me? (To be continued.) )
