There was silence. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Liu Xiu immediately said the set of theories he had told Xun Yu at the beginning, and after many discussions with Xun Yu, his set of theories is now richer and more in line with the current facts.
The basis of this idea is very simple: the person who creates wealth is not an official or a businessman, but a farmer and a craftsman, the farmer cultivates, chuns a seed, harvests ten thousand grains in the autumn, and the extra is his profit, and the craftsman turns the tree into all kinds of furniture and supplies, the rice and wheat into fine wine, and the stinky sheepskin into beautiful shoes, these are all creations, and they create wealth with their ingenuity.
And what is a businessman? Merchants are circulating, giving full play to the value of various commodities, and a commodity can be sold for so much money, not because of the creation of merchants, but because merchants have moved commodities from places that cannot fully reflect their value to places where they can be sold at high prices, giving full play to the original value of commodities.
And what about the role of officials? The role of the official is to give full play to everyone's ingenuity and reduce intermediate consumption, and he does not create wealth himself, but he allows everyone to maximize their ability to create wealth.
How do businessmen get rich? That's by buying cheaply and selling expensively, earning the difference. How do you get rich as an official? Of course, he also paid for his labor, but he also received a salary, which was the reward given to him. If a businessman wants to make more money, he has to ship more goods and travel longer distances, but how can officials make more money? It's about managing more people and playing a bigger role. That is, to be a bigger official.
These are limits.
A businessman can run a very large business, he can employ thousands, tens of thousands of people, but he goes farther and farther, but if he does not have a solid industrial base, what will he sell? He himself is not a creator of wealth, if there are ten thousand merchants, but only one craftsman. So can he make money? His limit is the amount of wealth created by the craftsmen.
What about being an official? If he doesn't use his power to seek si, and he doesn't want to be greedy for ink, then what if he does it as a third public? The three princes of the year are known as ten thousand stones. Three hundred and fifty stones a month, one hundred and seventy-five stones for the valley, and seventeen thousand five hundred for money. Even if you add all kinds of rewards, the maximum is three hundred gold a year. The three hundred gold is not all he can get, he has a lot of guests to support, even if he gets it all, three hundred gold is only a medium-sized one for a businessman, and the wealthy family in the state is not one or two who earn three hundred gold in the middle, but there are only a few three princes in the entire Han Kingdom?
So why is it easiest to get rich when you become an official? That's because they're plundering, not creating, and there's nothing to be proud of when it comes to this increase in wealth. If everyone went to plunder, it would not have been possible for the state to have such a scene all these years. Plunder may be the fastest way to create wealth. But he can't plunder for a long time, he is a tree without roots, water without a source.
The rich magnates in the history of the Han Dynasty are examples, they started by plundering, but which one is more than a hundred years old? Dou family. The Liang family, the Geng family, and the Ma family are all living examples, and now the Yuan family is going to follow in their footsteps, and they themselves are rich. But the price is the collapse of the big man, why can the yellow turban cause such a big momentum? It is because of the wealth of the Yuan family that hundreds of farmers go bankrupt.
Do you want the state to collapse like the big man? Do you want to be moths that gnaw away at the foundations of the state? Do you want to abandon the modest way of getting rich and use faster plundering to get rich? If you think so, then the New Deal is meaningless, because I can tell you unequivocally that if you want to plunder, Lao Tzu's fist is the hardest, the knife is the fastest, and none of you can rob me.
Liu Xiu finally said: "I will not adjust the county order and the county magistrate's Yu Lu for the time being, but there will be corresponding ways to solve this problem." The county magistrate and the county magistrate can live with dignity, but if you want to make a fortune from this, I advise you to die of this heart. I will not tolerate the common thieves in official uniforms running rampant in the state, if you have to, then please let me grab a handful first. ”
After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and walked away. Zhao Yun and Jia Xu hurriedly followed, Wang Yun hesitated for a moment, and also followed, Wen Shu's face was red and white for a while, looking at the stunned officials, he waved his hand angrily: "Everyone, what are you waiting for, you have to wait for the general to take someone to your house to rob?" Go home and tell your children, don't squeeze into the scripture school, within three years, don't want to enter the official career again, as for those who have entered the official career now, if you are willing to continue to take money to be an official, then you can do whatever you want, but be careful, don't be caught by me, if anyone dares to do anything, it is not only against me, but also against all the families in the state, don't blame me for being unkind. ”
Guo Yi also waved his hand, "Okay, okay, let's all disperse, go outside and take a rest, think more about what the general just said, do you want to continue to carry out the new policy with the general, or do you want to be a thief." After thinking clearly, when you pick up the wind for the general later, you will all make a statement, and let the general see the consciousness of the people of my state. ”
Everyone looked at each other, and they scattered in twos and threes. Wen Shu and Guo Yi and several other officials looked at each other, and also came to the back hall where Liu Xiu was resting to ask for a meeting. Liu Xian was talking to Wang Yun and Jia Xu, his face was okay, Wen Shu was relieved, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask for guilt: "General, I was confused and lived up to the general's good intentions." ”
Liu Xiu hurriedly helped him up, comforted him a few words, and said formally: "What did I sign this contract with you for? Actually, if nothing else, I just want to restrain myself. Everyone knows that the governance of Wenjing comes from Huang Lao's way of inaction, why can the way of inaction create the rule of Wenjing? Because of the world's affairs, the most feared are the people in power, what can ordinary farmers toss? But a casual word from a powerful person can make countless people lose their property. Emperor Xiaowen and Emperor Xiaojing can be called Ming Jun by later generations, because they are afraid, I am not a saint, and I dare not compare with Emperor Xiaowen and Emperor Xiaojing, so I signed a contract with everyone and announced it to the world, so that everyone will supervise me. ”
He smiled: "Actually, I won't tell you, when I was short of money, I really wanted to tear up this contract and let go of my hands and feet to grab it." ”
Wen Shu and the others laughed and laughed. I don't know if Liu Xiu is joking, or if he really has this plan, but if you think about it, it is true that this new deal restricts Liu Xiu the most, and he wants to borrow money from everyone in the most difficult time, instead of forcibly apportioning it. The money owed would have to be paid interest every year, if it weren't for the windfall last year that he made a fortune on war horses, and sold grain to the yellow turban at a high price. Liu Xiu still owes them money.
"I'm so confused." Wen Shu blamed himself again: "The generals know self-discipline, but I am dizzy and turn a blind eye to this kind of self-destruction of the foundation." I almost let the new deal die abruptly, and if it really comes to that point, I am not only sorry for the general, but I can't explain it to the elders of the state. ”
"If a person is not a sage, who can be without fault?" Liu Xiu said lightly: "However, the ugly words are ahead, Wen Jun, last time the sub-master made a mistake, I was criticized by the whole state, and you are no exception this time." If there is something offended, please Haihan. ”
Wen Shu's face stiffened, and he happened to see Wang Yun's smug gaze, his mouth was a little bitter, and he said in his heart that this was the idea of the people of Quanzhou. Now I'm unlucky alone, and I have to report criticism across the state, and my face will be lost. When I cleaned up Wang Yun last time, I didn't expect that I would have this day.
But when things came to this point, he couldn't shirk the responsibility, so he had to bow his head and accept it.
"Alright. I only know that the people of Bingzhou are rich now, and I really don't know what kind of money law is. Liu Xiu laughed with interest, and pointed at Guo Yi: "Ling Zun used to be the tent of the Han Dynasty, so let's start with you, how has your Guo family developed in recent years." ”
Guo Yi laughed, arched his hand and said: "General, I won't tell you, our Guo family is not the best in Bingzhou, but since the general is interested in listening to me first, I will throw bricks and talk about the harvest in the past few years." Later, the general can listen to Zishi say that his family's business has done a lot in recent years. He, the king of Zuozhi, did not help the holy king, and first made his own family rich. ”
"Really?" Liu Xiu laughed, "Then when you finish speaking, the sub-master will continue." ”
Wang Yun had been keeping his face tight, but when he heard this, he couldn't help laughing, pointed at Guo Yi and said, "You, you, you know that you are staring at me all day long." What kind of Wang Zuozhicai am I, you are, your whole family is. ”
The crowd laughed.
Jia Xu stroked the short beard under his jaw and said, "Zishi, I don't think you should be modest. Now the general is also the son of the king of Chu, and the king of Chu has only one descendant like him, and this prince will definitely be passed on to him in the future. ”
Wang Yun comprehended: "It is the honor of the minister to be able to assist the prince of Chu, I can't imagine that Guo Linzong's original praise has come true today." The style of Si people is unforgettable. ”
Liu Xiu's heart moved, and he exchanged a look with Jia Xu, a little beautiful, Wang Yun specially talked about Guo Tai, it was not a random sentence. "Whose house is it in?" This sentence foreshadowed the imminent death of the Han Dynasty and the mandate of heaven was said by Guo Tai, and now Wang Yun, who was personally assessed by Guo Tai as Wang Zuozhicai, was under his seat, which carried more weight than that implied sentence. Don't dare to say anything else, as long as these people in the house go out to publicize it, most of the people in the state will follow him with all their hearts.
It seems that the position of the king of Chu is still very useful, and it has become a clan, at least at this stage, at least people like Wang Yun and Xun Yu who still have the Son of Heaven in their hearts no longer reject him. If today's emperor falls, it is natural for the clan to take on the heavy responsibility of defending the royal family, and to be loyal to him is to be loyal to His Majesty.
"It is my honor to have the help of the master and all of you, the honor of the Han." Liu Xiu got up and bowed deeply to everyone.
Zhao Yun and others hurriedly returned the salute: "I am willing to serve the son of the world." ”
