"No matter who it is, for every hundred catties of grain transported to the capital, five catties of it are his." After a pause, Chen Xu said again, "In addition, those who transport more than 20 stones of grain will be rewarded with an additional piece of soap in addition to the grain they should receive; Those who transport more than 100 stones of grain will be rewarded with a piece of soap. ”
If the grain is burned, the court will not get a tael; Give the people a certain benefit, and the court will be able to keep this batch of grain, which is called wool from the sheep.
As for the rewards of soap and soap, Chen Xu also had to admit that he was too cunning. The market price of soap is about three taels of silver, and soap is a luxury item for the rich family, but the common people have heard but have never seen it, especially those with daughters, who are almost forced by their daughters to sell their blood and kidneys, if they hear this notice, they must be crazy about it.
In exchange for the most lucrative returns with the cheapest investment, Chen Xu will not lose money.
Meng Yao knows what soap and soap are, and it is no exaggeration to say that all she usually does laundry is soap, and it is too common to reward people with one or two pieces of soap; But Wu Ning's heart couldn't calm down for a long time.
It is an eternal truth that the people regard food as the sky. The granary of the Yan Kingdom was controlled by the imperial court, and the people needed to buy grain from the imperial court. This time the grain transportation, even if the people are paid the corresponding freight, they will have to buy grain after all.
The silver went from the treasury to the hands of the people, and then from the hands of the people back to the treasury, rather than tossing such a large circle, it was better to directly use grain as a reward.
There is no unsolvable problem in the world, this road does not lead, and there are other paths that can be chosen. There is a proverb in Western countries called AllroadsleadtoRome. There is a similar saying in China, which is called "different paths to the same end". A truly intelligent person is one who can think of another way out in the most desperate moments.
If Chen Xu's skills stop here, even if Lord Wu is convinced, he will not be shocked, but what really shocks him is the reward proposed by Chen Xu.
Before Chen Xu took office in the Ministry of War, Wu Ning was a member of the Ministry of War, and there were people in the imperial court who also had this and that gray income. Where is there no fish in the water, and what officials are not greedy? Wu Ning is greedy and moderate, and it is easy to buy a piece of soap, but if you want to buy soap, I am afraid that you will be overstretched. Hearing Chen Xu's words of rewarding soap, he even wanted to go shirtless and pull a few hundred stones of grain back.
"Lord Shang. This... It's too precious. Wu Ning swallowed and foamed, "Once this matter is announced to the world, how much will the adult lose millions?" How can you ...... if you work hard for the country?"
Chen Xu waved his hand. "Lord Wu, under the nest, how many eggs are finished? If the country is broken, the family will die, is there any point in earning money? As long as we can keep our homeland, what is my fear even if my family goes bankrupt? ”
"Adult ......"
Wu Ning was no longer young, and when he heard Chen Xu's words, he actually felt that the blood in his whole body was boiling.
"A good man should stand up to the sky, Jin Ge Iron Horse goes, and the horse leather shroud is returned." Wu Ning looked at Chen Xu with some solemnity, "Xiaguan has been living for decades. The adult's words were like a slap in the face, and the lower officials suddenly opened their mouths, and the lower officials will live up to the trust of the adults. ”
Chen Xu waved his hand slightly, "Lord Wu, you follow what I said to draft a notice to inform the whole country, the sooner this matter is, the better; At the same time, it is also necessary to prepare the auxiliary personnel for transporting grain, who is responsible for recording and who is responsible for supervising grain, and this work must be done to perfection, otherwise it will be a mess. Chen Xu rubbed his forehead, and he added, "These two things go hand in hand. Manpower and material resources were gathered, and the grain was immediately transported, and there could be no delay for a moment. ”
Wu Ning took the order and left, Chen Xu stretched out his hands and sat on the chair, he let out a long breath of turbidity. After solving the problem of food, the big stone he had raised in his heart finally fell to the ground.
"Xianggong. It's almost noon, let's go home and rest for a while, otherwise my mother-in-law will be in a hurry again. ”
Chen Xu sighed, "Meng Yao, I asked someone to send you home, and you told your mother that I wouldn't go home for dinner at noon." ”
"Xianggong, where are you going? Meng Yao wants to accompany you. ”
"I need to go to the palace."
Meng Yao was stunned, she looked up at the sun, the emperor also had to eat and rest, even if Xianggong wanted to go, he would have to wait until the afternoon.
Hearing Meng Yao's question, Chen Xu said, "Although the matter of food has been solved, the silver is still beyond its means, and once the war breaks out, the silver required cannot be counted. In the past two days, I've been driving Tobe Jin Shang crazy, why don't you drive him to death at that time? Now that the words have been spoken, of course I have to settle the matter of the silver. ”
"Xianggong, you have figured out a way."
Silver and grain are essentially the same, and if you want to understand one problem, other problems will naturally be solved. Chen Xu pinched Meng Yao's face, "Do you know who most of a country's wealth is concentrated in?" ”
Meng Yao looked at Chen Xu, she didn't understand what she meant.
"Rich people. Much of the country's wealth is concentrated in the hands of the wealthy. Rich is more than just a slogan. ”
"But what then?"
"The common people have to make efforts to transport grain, of course, they have to contribute some silver, which is called the rich to contribute money and powerful efforts."
"Do you want them to pay?" Meng Yao couldn't help touching Chen Xu's forehead, she was a little worried that Xianggong was confused.
Jian Ninghou just did the same thing not long ago, he fattened his family under the guise of discounting and raising money, even if the prince is dedicated to the public, but will they believe it? The story of "the wolf is coming" is said to be believed once, and the second time it is said is called a lie.
"The wealth of the rich is like a woman's career line ......"
A woman's career line? Meng Yao was a little puzzled, and Chen Xu smiled and pointed to her chest.
Meng Yao was dressed in men's clothes, don't look at her chest wrapped like an airport, but this is only a temporary dormant day, and when the night is in full bloom, the proud twin peaks are enough to make him shake.
Meng Yao couldn't help but glared at Chen Xu, Xianggong still seemed to have a lot of energy.
"Why is wealth like there?" Meng Yao asked with a red face.
"There will always be a crowd." Chen Xu was afraid that Meng Yao would get angry, so he hurriedly said, "If you rely on the strength of the country, it is not difficult to squeeze some oil and water, but I don't want to take human lives, and the subjects are centrifuged, which is not conducive to the stability and unity of the country." Since violence is not enough, I decided to lure it to my advantage. ”
"How do you induce it to take advantage?" Meng Yao looked at it with a blank eye, even as the wife of the knotted hair, she couldn't guess Xianggong's whimsical ideas.
"First, facing the whole country, the soap is openly auctioned, and the profits, excluding the cost, are all owned by the state treasury." Chen Xu glanced at Meng Yao, "Meng Yao, I'm afraid I've had to work hard for you these past few days." ”
Soap is a cash cow, Chen Xu's idea is like shaking the branch to get gold coins to contribute to others for free, Meng Yao is reluctant, but she is unwilling to disobey, nor can she go against the wishes of the public, as he said, there are no eggs under the nest, the national disaster is at the head, and there must be sacrifices.
"You write a letter to the Zhou family in Jinling in my name, and tell them to find someone who can take charge of things to come to the capital to see me."
Jinling, a rich place in the south of the Yangtze River, once the soap is auctioned publicly, it will inevitably cause a sensation, if Chen Xu can draw enough manpower, he will definitely not bother the Zhou family, which is also a helpless thing.
"Second, issue treasury bonds and borrow money from subjects throughout the country in the name of the imperial court."
National debt? Meng Yao's beautiful eyes were full of incredible...... (To be continued......)
