Chapter 851: Thousand Autumn Achievements
Tang Yi's three major strategists, each with their own strengths, Mao Kun is resourceful and decisive, and his vision pattern is rare in the world, Wang Yin is good at conspiracy and trickery, and he is unparalleled in his plots, and he will kill when he shoots, Shen Mingchen is more than a step worse than these two, but he has a good literary style, and he has a very good set of people's livelihood and economy. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
He came to Suzhou, just to help Tang Yi sort out the complicated situation together.
First of all, Jingcha, buying Yang Bo is a necessary move, but the right to issue currency is too heavy, and it falls into the hands of the Jin Party, I am afraid that there will be endless disasters.
"My lord, don't look at the treasure money in the hands of the imperial court, it is too hard to wipe the buttocks, but in the hands of the Jin merchants, with their abundant capital, they can immediately make the treasure money come alive, as for the issuance of silver dollars, as far as I know, one silver dollar, silver nine bronze one, that is to say, the issuance of ten taels of silver, you can earn one tael of profits. There is so much oil and water, who can not be blushing! Shen Mingchen concluded: "I think it's too much to let out, if the traffic bank and the Jin merchants join forces to issue silver dollars, the two sides will divide the accounts in thirty-seven, we will account for seventy, let the Jin merchants account for thirty percent, it is already a big concession, all to the Jin merchants, inappropriate, really inappropriate!" ”
Tang Yi smiled slightly, "Mr. Juzhang, what you said is right, but what if I have other calculations?" ”
Shen Mingchen was taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "My lord, what do you mean?" ”
"It's a pit!"
Tang Yi crossed Erlang's legs, full of pride, "No businessman can refuse the temptation of issuing currency, and Jin Shang is no exception, even if they know that with their strength, they can't swallow it, they will use their strength to swallow it hard, and what I have to do is to wait for the time to be ripe and give Jin Shang a fatal blow!" ”
Ooh!
Shen Mingchen's eyes widened, and his whole person was stunned. Who are these people? He felt that the three views had collapsed, Xu Jie's murder with a knife was dark enough, right? Yang Bo has two sides and three knives, and if he wants to sit back and enjoy the benefits, it is also not a good thing to eat and wipe clean.
But these two are inferior to Tang Yilai, and they were even thrown out of 108,000 miles.
Tang Yi gave Yang Bo a delicately coated cannonball, dressed in a dazzling display of flowers, and the brilliance was moving. As long as the Jin merchants swallow it, at a certain point in time, it will suddenly explode, the outside is charred and the inside is tender, the bones are crispy and the flesh is numb, and the financial and monetary crises in the past have far exceeded the lethality of real wars.
If you don't make a mistake, if you make a mistake, the family foundation accumulated by the Jin merchants for more than 100 years will be gone, squeezed clean, and from then on, it will completely sink.
Countless families of the super-rich, falling from the clouds to hell in one night, never recovering, no bones remaining, what a black heart, what a powerful imagination!
I took it, I really took it!
Shen Mingchen was suddenly very glad that he had arrived at Tang Yi's shogunate and did not become an enemy with him, otherwise he would have to live in a nightmare for the rest of his life if he went against him.
"Big, my lord, isn't the cost too big?" Shen Mingchen's tongue was a little bad, "If you want to hack the Jin merchants, just a treasure banknote is enough, and the issuance of silver dollars can be left to us." ”
"Nope." Tang Yi shook his head: "If you want to take the first, among the Jin merchants, they are all masters, and you can't underestimate the heroes of the world, if these two things are not wrapped together, the Jin merchants may not be willing to swallow them." ”
Tang Yi smiled again: "Whether it is the issuance of silver dollars or the undertaking of treasure banknotes, it is an unprecedented thing, let the Jin merchants cross the river by touching the stones, and then we will touch them to cross the river, wouldn't it be beautiful!" ”
Dealing with an old fox like Yang Bo, intrigues and tricks are useless, only a dignified and upright conspiracy, even if he sees the risk, he has to jump down with his head down, that can work.
Tang Yi immediately repaired a letter and asked people to take it to his father, he was not in the capital, only his father had enough weight to talk to Yang Bo about the conditions. As for Shen Mingchen, he had been on the road for more than ten days and was already exhausted, Tang Yi asked him to rest, and as soon as his head touched the pillow, he fell asleep, snoring like thunder.
When he woke up, he saw that it was dark outside.
"How many hours have I been asleep?" He asked, confused.
"It's been a few hours, it's been more than a day!" A maid ran over with a smile, "Master Shen, do you want to continue to sleep, or do you want to eat something?" ”
Grunting, bowels roaring like thunder, Shen Mingchen's old face turned red, do you need to say, let's eat something first.
The maid went down to prepare, and taking advantage of this effort, Shen Mingchen washed up, the food was delivered, he was full of food and drink, and his spirit recovered.
He followed the path and found Tang Yi's study.
It had been a watch, and the lights were still bright inside, and Shen Mingchen coughed twice and walked in, just like when he was in the mansion.
Tang Yi smiled: "Mr. Juzhang, can you rest?" ”
"It's good or not, it's hard work." He sat down and picked up a few official documents casually, and naturally it seemed that Tang Yi didn't say anything, and was busy until the third watch, Tang Yi put down the brush and stretched his waist.
Shen Mingchen's face was solemn and a little shocked, "It's too bold!" ”
Suppress mergers, reduce land rents, and purchase grain from overseas...... Everything will cause a big shock, but Tang Yi put it together to do it, isn't this looking for trouble!
"My lord, don't you often say that reform should be gradual and gradual, and you should not make too many enemies, I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to do this?"
Tang Yi didn't answer directly, but asked, "Brother Juzhang, when you arrived in Jiangnan, how was the weather, how did you feel?" ”
"It's hot, it's wickedly hot, and I heard the maid say that it hasn't rained for a month." Shen Mingchen sighed: "It's strange to say that these years, the north is dry, the south is waterlogged, the winter is cold, the summer is hot, and disasters are constantly occurring. ”
Even Shen Mingchen-like figures, facing the unpredictable climate, can only be blamed on God.
However, Tang Yi knew that this was called the Xiaoice River Period!
The temperature of the earth under our feet is not static, and every few hundred years, there will be a period of relative cold, with temperature drops, frequent disasters, reduced food production, and displaced people.
At the same time, in the far north, the barbarians who lived in pursuit of water and grass easily destroyed their ancient way of life, and either stayed and froze to death with their livestock, or took up arms and went to rob the rich Central Plains.
History proves that no one is willing to freeze to death.
Although there is no scientific data, Tang Yi has already felt the proximity of the Xiaoice River period, and several heavy snowfalls fell in Suzhou last year, and the snow once melted for five days.
Many scholars were ecstatic, treading the snow to find plum blossoms, looking for the legendary poetry and picturesqueness, and having a great time.
But they never dreamed that the lovely, white, and much-loved snow was the murderer who destroyed the fairyland on earth.
If you kill the boar skin, there will be a wild sheep skin, a wild donkey skin, a wild dog skin...... The problem can't be solved at all, and maybe a more eloquent hero will emerge, and the trouble will be even greater.
The key is to establish enough overseas grain bases and provide enough job opportunities to resolve the surging displacer dynasty when the Xiaoice period comes, as long as there is no civil strife among the displaced people, and only wild boar skins are not a problem.
Although Shen Mingchen could not understand history, he was familiar with the past, and Li Bai wrote, "If you want to cross the Yellow River and the ice and the river, you will climb the snow-covered mountains in Taihang." Su Shi was demoted to Hangzhou, and he also encountered a snow scene that has been rare for decades, and he also drank and sang happily, just like the scholars in Suzhou last year.
However, after these situations appeared, within a few decades, the world was in chaos, and even the dynasty was changed, and the Xiaoice River period was so powerful that it was by no means a lie!
From this point of view, Tang Yi's various practices have become easy to accept.
Lower the domestic land rent, but no one cares about the overseas land rent, and after arriving overseas, you can capture the natives, use slaves to farm, treat people as livestock, and throw them away when you are tired.
Those big families are strong, and the loss of land rent can be made up for overseas, not to mention that they can also operate business and earn more.
Under Tang Yi's pressure, these people nodded one after another and agreed to transfer the land rent to the river, among which the high-grade fields became the highest with five, and the middle-class and lower-grade fields were reduced to about thirty percent.
Naturally, small and medium-sized landlords were strongly opposed, but Tang Yi did not want to compromise, and he used a large amount of overseas grain stocks to impact the market.
This is the preparation he made when he established the city shipping department, North Korea, Wa Kingdom, Annam, Siam, Burma, this large circle, where grain is produced, Tang Yi has arranged procurement personnel.
Anyway, in these places, there is nothing else except food, blindly buying Ming porcelain and silk, gold and silver outflow, they can't stand it, Daming can purchase their grain, just balance the trade, can't ask for it.
These grains were stationed in Ryukyu, Dongfan Island and other places, and they were thrown out at this time, just when it was the time of spring ploughing, and the price of grain was the most expensive.
The prosperity of the southeast has been pushed up to an incredible point by prices, and in Suzhou and other places, a stone of grain can reach up to two or three taels of silver.
This is not speculation, but a real price!
Grain is so expensive, no wonder the landlords are reluctant to lower the rent, it's all money!
However, with the import of overseas grain, the situation changed suddenly, and the price of grain in Suzhou, which fell three times a day, was beaten to one or two five, and continued to fall.
The situation in the whole southeast is similar, in the past, people recognized that there were more people and less land, and the price of grain was high, so they desperately grabbed land, but now the situation has changed, I heard that Luzon is as big as three Zhejiang, and the grain output of Dongfan Island is also comparable to Fujian, which is the four provinces, and it is necessary to open up more overseas territories.
On the one hand, the population is going outward, and on the other hand, the grain is flowing inward, and it will be difficult for grain to rise again in the future. Farming and collecting rent, the profit is far less than that of running a business workshop, preparing to build a fleet, and going to sea.
When this argument became a consensus, the small and medium-sized landlords could not hold on, bowed their heads and admitted defeat, and finally, Tang Yi, in the capacity of the southeast economic strategy, summoned the leading figures of the Shinong industry and commerce, including landlords, tenants, and newspaper leaders, and finally finalized the "Interim Measures for Land Rent" after two or three months of lengthy consultations.
At the same time, there is also a seemingly inconspicuous but extremely important statement in the preamble, that land belongs to all the property of the people, and that it is sacred and cannot be encroached upon, and that any ingenious seizure or embezzlement should be regarded as an illegal act...... (To be continued.) )
