Chapter 0989 Appointment of Tian Jianzhang
Everyone present was a little confused by the emperor's series of new terms, listening to the name probably knew what it was, but in terms of specific operations, no one had done it, and they only felt that this stage of the Ming Dynasty was worrying, and several things that had never happened were going on at the same time, so it was inevitable that people would not have such questions.
"When promoting treasury bills and treasury bonds, remember not to make people feel that Daming is short of money, but to make people feel that Daming is very rich, the reason why there is money and borrowing, it is for the sake of construction, and it is necessary to vigorously publicize the huge impact of road traffic construction on the national economy. The speed of money flow will directly determine the speed of a country's development. Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen said confidently, for him now, he is confident that even if Mao Taizu returns to this era, he may not be able to do better than himself, people are maturing in constant adversity, since this rebirth, Zhu Youzhen has been exposed to too many adversities, so he is more confident.
Treasury bonds are a kind of government bonds issued by the central government to raise financial funds, and are creditor's rights and debt certificates issued by the central government to investors, promising to pay interest and repay the principal at maturity.
Treasury bonds are the main form of national credit. The central government often issues government bonds to cover the national deficit, or to finance some costly construction projects, special economic policies, and even wars. Since government bonds are backed by tax revenues from the central government as a guarantee for debt and interest repayments, they are less risky and more liquid. Interest rates are also lower than other bonds. Judging by the form of bonds. Treasury bonds can be divided into three types: voucher treasury bonds, bearer treasury bonds, and book-entry treasury bonds.
Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen needed the funds. It will be mainly used in the Ming Ordnance Manufacturing Bureau and railways, warships, artillery upgrades, and Chongzhen rifle upgrades. One cycle of trade with Europe, it takes at least three months, two cycles to be able to accumulate a lot of wealth and food, and. Judging from the current process of promoting 2044 rice in various parts of Jiangnan, after half a year, the problem of food shortage in Daming will also be completely cured.
The most important thing is the current war, no gold swallower beast can compare to the war, not to mention, this war will not be able to get any money if it is won.
He has reason to believe. As long as it survived half a year, when the opium profits rolled back. Adversity will become a thing of the past. Now all he has to do is how to survive this half year.
"Vigorously encourage farming, vigorously consider the construction of industry and commerce, set up economic development zones, based on Tianjin, Nanjing, Hangzhou, Guangzhou, Xiamen, these five places, the establishment of economic development zones, the establishment of duty-free industrial zones, to attract the capital of the Ming Dynasty, to invest in the construction of all kinds of factories, the opening of commercial ports, to attract European businessmen to open joint ventures, but also to encourage European businessmen to open wholly-owned commercial banks, strengthen foreign economic cooperation, money is inexhaustible, as long as there is a tolerant mind, you can go to the vast world to make money, Don't just stare at the one-third of an acre in front of you. I think I can write an article in the name of Tian Jianzhang, and at the stage of crossing the river by feeling the stones, I will first let the people below take the lead and give policy support. "Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen gave important instructions to everyone.
Tian Jianzhang nodded and said yes, he knows a lot of things, on the one hand, Tian Guifei often goes to see him, on the other hand, although he is in prison, but in the prison, his family reads the newspaper to him every day, and also tells him about the big things outside, Tian Jianzhang knows about opium, and also knows that Daming defeated the Dutch and Xu Xinsu and Liu Xiang in the southeast sea, "Your Majesty, the minister has another problem, in foreign trade, foreigners are not easy to talk to, and the policy is relaxed, so it can naturally attract foreigners from all over the world to Daming to start a business house, However, the fish and dragons are mixed, and the power of the Jose countries in the Champa and Siam areas is very large, and there may be constant friction due to the export of opium. When the time comes, what will be done with the Jose merchants? ”
Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen nodded, "You are good, you are in the prison, but you are very clear about the affairs of the world, friction is inevitable, businessmen are businessmen, the country is the country, to make people feel that the Ming Dynasty is an open country, to separate the merchants from the army, we have no way to complete the trade with the world by ourselves, if there is friction, we will fight, and trade while rubbing." ”
Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen said this, there are precedents to follow, the first Opium War and the second Opium War, China and foreign devils fought for decades, people did not stop doing business, there is money to make, everything is easy to say.
This time, everyone was shocked again, everyone knew the emperor's temper, but they did not expect that the emperor's policy would be so flexible in dealing with foreign trade and trade, which was very inconsistent with the emperor's previous character.
"I understand." Tian Jianzhang was convinced.
Tian Guifei was very happy to see that her brother and the emperor could talk, although she had been silent, it was because there were no women here to speak, just like Wang Chengen and Cao Huachun, although they had great power, but when there were courtiers present in the meeting, they only appeared as eunuchs and eunuchs with palm prints, and they could not give direct advice.
Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen looked at Tian Guifei, saw that she was happy, and he was also very happy, and stood up, "Cao Huachun, record it, add Wen Zhenmeng, Zheng Zheng, Zheng Yuelin and Tian Jianzhang The four of them entered the cabinet, and they are here today." ”
Cao Huachun agreed, but he was uneasy in his heart, and he glanced at Wang Chengen, is it too hasty to recruit four cabinet ministers in one sentence?
Wang Chengen and Cao Huachun glanced at each other and bowed their heads, the world is the emperor's world, the emperor can do whatever he wants, and today, do you still want to put forward any opinions?
Tian Guifei heard that Zheng Yuelin was put into the cabinet, this Zheng Yuelin, like Zhang Huiyi, is a famous woman in Daming, maybe the common people don't know the names of the queen and the concubine, but most of them have heard of the names of these two women, especially Zheng Yuelin, in just three years, she has gone from a female official to the position of the first leader in Daming politics and law, which is really a bit appalling, which is that in the Chongzhen period of Daming, it is impossible to change to any era.
With the strong promotion of national bonds and treasury bills, the Ming Dynasty passed the most difficult time, not only supporting North Korea's military spending, but also constantly transporting the defeated imperial party members to North Korea, as well as some people in society who were involved in the rectification movement, and successively moved 200,000 people to North Korea.
In accordance with the emperor's instructions, He Kegang and Man Gui reused the three main figures of the pro-Ming and anti-Qing Dynasty, Yin Ji, the school manager of Hongwenguan, Wu Daji, and Hong Yihan, the official of Taiwan, among the remaining ministers of Korea, and gave them the title of deputy political envoy to assist Mangui in managing Korean affairs. The North Koreans are in a sharp decrease, of course, mainly men, men have to go to war, the Ming only need to pay money, the North Koreans want to give life, the military orders issued by Mangui are mostly for the officers and soldiers of North Korea to destroy the supply line of the Qing army, so that the long supply line of the Qing army is in a state of constant attack by North Korean officers and soldiers, Huang Taiji felt that he was caught in the quagmire of war, he did not expect that the Korean War would become the current situation after being intervened by the Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen.
Huang Taiji was tenacious and hardworking, waiting for the moment when the Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen and the Ming Dynasty could not support it, but the Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen has always stabilized the domestic economy because of the prosperity of commerce and the issuance of treasury bills and treasury bonds.
"Your Majesty, after Zhang Weiye was sent to Shandong, Zhang Weiye's mother was so thoughtful that she couldn't afford to be sick for a long time, and she died today." Wang Chengen reported to the emperor who was busy with state affairs. (To be continued......)
