Chapter 467: The Dog Emperor is in action

The factory guards were dispatched again, this time aiming at the maritime merchants in the southeast. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoIn the past, these maritime merchants cooperated with the factory owners in Jiangnan, who produced facials, silk, porcelain, and other goods, and then these maritime merchants carried out the foreign smuggling trade.

The trade between the Ming Dynasty and the Westerners was after the Ming Dynasty organized a fleet to go to the Western Ocean seven times, and after the trade was interrupted because it felt that it was not cost-effective, the Westerners built their own ships to trade. The main reason is that Europe has no import of Chinese goods, which has caused serious deflation.

Europeans have long used spices as a currency, but in order to exchange spices from India, they must have Chinese silk and porcelain.

The mantle of Buddhism is silk and porcelain. Buddhism is a kind of spiritual deception made by Indians, so it is influenced by Indian culture, so it has the word mantle, and it is also a very important thing. The ultimate pursuit of Indians is silk and porcelain, which is the monetary system of Indians. Of course, Buddhism and Buddhism are not the same, Buddhism is a core idea adopted by Buddhism, just like Taoism uses Taoist things.

Buddhism is a religion of deception. The ancient Indians didn't have any goods to export, so what to do? So they relied on the export of deception in exchange for goods, and some people said that Buddhism broke the body, broke the family, and broke the country when it entered the country. This was especially evident before Buddhism was localized in China. Believing in Buddhism is equivalent to being charged a lifetime tax and an IQ tax. Therefore, in ancient China, there were three large-scale Buddha slaughtering movements. After these Buddha slaughtering campaigns, Buddhism was localized and integrated with Confucianism and Taoism, and the habits of Indian barbarians were reduced a lot, but there were still certain problems.

Islam, Christianity, and Judaism, these religions are essentially a kind of trade organization, a trade access system, for example, in the area of a certain religious power, you do not have to pay taxes if you believe in this religion, and you have to pay taxes if you do not believe in this religion.

Buddhism is also a religion that emerged for trade, but the goods exported were deception, a kind of IQ fraud.

The reason why ancient Islam was able to spread in Southeast Asia was because the Arabs had mastered the commodity trade channels in the era of agricultural globalization, and the Arabs traded in Southeast Asia. Later, the Arabs were replaced by the Mongols, and this Mongol trade system was destroyed by the Ming Dynasty.

The Ming Dynasty organized seven trips to the West in order to open trade, but later stopped when it felt that it was not cost-effective. After the passage of the sea, it was the Europeans who took control of the trade channels.

In order to obtain spices, Europeans first transported silk and porcelain from China to India in exchange for spices, so as to solve the problem of deflation in Europe.

The smugglers in the southeast sold their goods to the fleets of Portugal, Spain, and the Netherlands for a profit. At the same time, it also trades with Japan and Southeast Asia.

The profit of this is very high, when the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, a large household was raided casually, and the family was hundreds of thousands of taels or hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, and the money in the hands of those large families was very large.

There is a big problem with the capitalist class, which is that they are reluctant to spend money when they make it, or they spend money to invest just to monopolize a certain industry and then make more money.

But when there is less and less money in the market, and those who have money are not willing to spend it, economic problems will arise, and economic crises will come.

At this time, these rich people will say that this is a lack of market demand. But in society, there are obviously many ordinary people who turn over garbage cans, aren't these exactly the needs?

Allowing the development of these private capitals was the biggest failure of the Ming Dynasty.

Now Zhu Youxiao is releasing liquidity by raiding his home. Directly raid the homes of those who are rich and rival the country, and then spend the money through the state finance, thereby increasing the total amount of money in the market, and then solving the problem of deflation.

After the factory guard's raid began, there was a sudden jump in the southeast region, and as Zhu Youxiao expected, a large amount of property was directly confiscated.

Public opinion is obviously also paying attention to this raid, and the reason for the court's raid this time is that these big households are suspected of smuggling.

Immediately, there was public opinion questioning the behavior of the imperial court, but more people were not surprised by the emperor's action.

Is the number of times the dog emperor raids his house still less?

The rise of the Dog Emperor is almost a history of copying the family.

Jin merchants, Hui merchants, Jiangnan chaebols, Donglin Party, military attache group, in the past, these forces were all very rich! However, these groups were all copied by the emperor, and now it was the turn of the maritime merchants in the southeast.

The Southeast Maritime Merchants are also a group of rich countries, and the wealth they possess is definitely not comparable to that of ordinary groups. The factory and health agents seized a large amount of assets in the homes of these maritime merchants.

However, compared with those Jin merchants and other groups, although this group of maritime merchants was confiscated, the end was not too bad. After the factory guards confiscated the property of these hundreds of maritime merchants, they quickly released the people, and at the same time left some money for them.

A group of maritime merchants scolded and scolded, and the dog emperor was simply a bandit.

But at the same time, I am glad that I picked up a small life. And what is barely acceptable is that the Dog Emperor left them about one-tenth of the family property.

As for the other ninety percent of the family property, the explanation given by the imperial court was to make up for tax evasion.

The fate of the Southeast Sea Merchants should be said to be relatively good, they were not exiled, they were not beheaded, and there was even money left for them.

In the past, these maritime merchants also undertook a problem of solving social deflation, and they had their social functions, and there must be people who did it, just like tomb robbers. As for betraying the country, it is just a trade with the Europeans.

Of course, it's no problem for Zhu Youxiao to cut them down, but he didn't do anything about it, and he still let these maritime merchants go, but they have the wealth of the country, which Zhu Youxiao can't allow, which means that these maritime merchants may squander a lot of people's power because of personal enjoyment.

After some statistics, an astonishing result was obtained.

These hundreds of maritime merchants were found to have a total of nearly 200 million taels of silver, but in terms of assets, they were much less than the group of financial oligarchs in Jiangnan. But when it comes to land, it's even more. After these maritime merchants made money, they did not stretch their hands as long as the financial oligarchs in Jiangnan, but they were not inferior in land annexation.

After this 'tax pursuit' action, Zhu Youxiao made another windfall, and at the same time sharpened the tip of the gap between the rich and the poor.

After confiscating most of the property of these maritime merchants, Zhu Youxiao issued a decree to open up the ocean-going trade, and private capital could also engage in ocean-going trade activities, and the official monopoly on the ocean-going trade was no longer carried out.

At this time, Zhu Youxiao was not worried about any advanced technology being exported abroad, because with the completion of industrialization in the Ming Dynasty, other countries could not become an industrialized power at all, which was determined by population, culture and so on.
