Lost in 1629148 Keynes Lin

"According to the records of the Yellow Book of the Imperial Government. The tax-paying population of Qiongzhou should be: about 1,500 households in the inner city. There are about 3,000 households in the outer city. The population of the town is about 30,000. It has five towns under its jurisdiction. Nanaxiang. More than 150 villages. There are 18,000 households in total. The taxable population is about 120,000...... The total registered land of the state capital is about 1.2 million acres. But most of them are the fields of the gentry. It is exempted from taxation according to the laws of the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, the part that we can collect grain this time is only about 400,000 mu......"

In the wrap-up session that followed. Lin Feng, the economic housekeeper, held his precious record book. I would like to report to you the specific number of this action.

According to Mr. Huang Renyu. Since ancient times, the Chinese have lacked the spirit of precise digital management. A lot of the numbers are just approximate. Approximately. Maybe...... To a large extent, this has hindered the government's management of the social economy.

As a pure number jù maniac. Lin Feng had always admired Mr. Huang's judgment before. He intuitively felt that mathematics was the most sophisticated thing in the world. One is one, two is two. The ancients had limited mathematical knowledge and couldn't figure it out. With their own knowledge. Since this era has come. It is definitely possible to make the numbers more accurate. Therefore, the first time he was asked to count the number of casualties was jù. Ignore everyone's reminders. He still insisted on making a joke about "zero and five corpses".

Merely. After really experiencing the most tedious statistical work of the era of money and grain collection. Lin Feng quietly gave up his digital theory. Instead, like Ben, he uses a lot of vague words: approximately. Probably. Essential......

"All in all. The harvest this time is quite huge. In total, we have seized about 60,000 taels of silver in coins and supplies. The total amount of grain is about 30,000 stones. According to one hundred and twenty pounds per stone. Ming system is converted to 600 grams per catty. That's two thousand one hundred and sixty tons. ”

The numbers sound big. However, before everyone could express their joy. Lin Feng then turned to another page:

"But there are also many people who need our support. Except for the three hundred people directly under our side. Qiongzhou Prefecture is subordinate at all levels. Miscellaneous servants of each. Patrol ...... Now they will all receive food from us. The groups add up to about two thousand. If it is calculated according to the consumption of three kilograms of grain per person per day. It just happened to be able to meet the needs of a year, and the side of the main base of the high base was not counted. If the other side asks for food. The rations here are insufficient. ”

"Where do people eat three kilograms in a day? It's not a pig ......."

Hu Kai muttered in a low voice beside him. Lin Feng smiled:

"You don't need to just eat food. But we always have to eat meat. Livestock also consume grain, and this number is converted into the grain consumed by livestock. It should be more scientific. ”

"This is the standard of nutrition for modern people. The consumption of the common people in the Ming Dynasty was not so large...... But it doesn't matter. It's not a bad thing to raise the bar a little bit either. He groaned. These numbers are not particularly precise though. But it's enough for them to make decisions, and there's nothing wrong with vague numbers.

"We don't have to worry about the Lord's side. The harvest on the farm is much higher than here. And they were also planning to collect grain and taxes a few days ago. Professor Li also said that he could support our side and the staff would call Guò. The other side is quite happy with the process here. He even said that he would send people to learn from advanced experience.

So the food problem was solved. After that, Lin Feng turned to a new page:

"Also. According to the laws of the Ming Empire. We also have the right to conscript about 6,000 young and able-bodied laborers to serve in us for a period of ninety days. Theoretically, we don't have to pay salaries. They should also be responsible for the cost of food, which is also part of the tax. ”

"Zhang Juzheng is reforming the law with a whip. Didn't you switch all the conscription to silver? ”

Pang Yu was quite strange. Lin Feng nodded first. Then he shook his head:

"Theoretically, it is possible to replace conscription with paying money. But it's still the same old problem that the civilian population lacks currency in their hands. I can't even pay my normal taxes. Not to mention the offsetting of forced labor. They would rather work to pay off their debts. There are also many people who should have paid for it. Because there is no money. On the contrary, we do not disagree with them to compensate by increasing their conscription. ”

"Okay. Anyway, we'll use this labor in the winter when the farm is slack. The part of the north city gate that was bombarded immediately agreed with Lin Feng's approach. Although it is not completely on the peasant's side like Zhang Shenyue. But Lao Xie has never been interested in exploiting civilians. He always felt that the effect of knocking on big accounts was better. If it weren't for the opposition of Pang Yu, Ao Sayan and others. There must be more than one big household that is handled as a local tyrant and an inferior gentry.

The data report is complete. But Lin Feng didn't end there. Instead, he looked at everyone solemnly:

"One more thing. Friends. I think you should be reminded that after this tax collection. I reckon except for the silver and gold that were hidden in the house of the Lord. The district of Qiongzhou Prefecture. At least 30 to 40 percent of the money in circulation goes into our coffers. This may lead to a rather severe deflationary problem in the district. ”

Quite a professional topic. Everyone looked at Lin Feng with a stern expression. Waiting for his further explanation.

"The money supply is insufficient. The value of coins as equivalents increases. Prices are falling, but that's not a good thing. Because Ben's common people have no money in their hands but only supplies. If there is a foreign merchant at this time, the money is transported. It's easy to buy a lot of physical goods. As a result, there was a shortage of materials. Or maybe the big family can do this by storing gold and silver in a kiln. They can hoard the ...... Of course, no one on the market has done that yet. But I think it's important to think about that in advance. Be prepared. ”

In the past, Lin Feng didn't look down on the merchants of the Ming Dynasty. However, after all this, don't say Xu Jing. Merchants like Mo Dapeng. Even Yan Wenchang actually has a lot of research on the way of economy. Of course, they didn't learn formal economic theory. But as long as there is a way to make money. Almost all of these people are self-taught. On the mind. In fact, it is no worse than him, a top student of the University of Finance and Economics.

Now they may not have noticed it. However, as prices continue to fall. There will definitely be the first one to eat crabs. After the sweetness is reached, someone will inevitably follow up. Routes from the mainland to Hainan are gradually reopening. There are already bold businessmen who have come to explore the way.

"Cut. That's not easy to be a speculative profiteer. Come one by one, catch one! I'd like to see who's so bold. Dare to do it with us! ”

The dismissal immediately issued a murderous declaration. But Lin Feng shook his head at him:

"Economic issues. In the end, it will have to be solved by economic means. The accusation of speculation is untenable in economics. Military or political means can only cure the symptoms but not the root causes, and capital is born to pursue profits. You can't control it. ”

"Are you building yì we try to spend as much money as possible?"

Pang Yu can be regarded as hearing a little bit of the doorway. Lin Feng finally nodded this time:

"Yes. We collect these currencies. It's just that they have the right to dominate. But they have to be put into circulation to be effective. It's just a pile of dead stuff in a warehouse

Very interesting theory. Most of them don't seem to understand. Only a few could keep up with Lin Feng's thinking.

"So. Don't we need to save some money just in case? ”

Pang Yu discussed this issue with him very seriously. It involves Lin Feng's major. The latter immediately became extremely confident.

"Hey, hey. Typical civilian thinking. In the eyes of the common people, money is wealth. And for the government. Money is just a tool used to regulate the economy. Civilians can only use the wealth they have accumulated in the past. And the government can take advantage of the future, which we call deficit finance. ”

"Dry. Say so much. Isn't it just spending money? Who wouldn't spend money. ”

Xu Lei was dizzy listening to it next to him. It's hard to understand a little. Immediately interject. But this time, Lin Feng didn't need to speak. Ao Sayan shook his head first:

"Government investment is a complicated thing. How can you guarantee a certain return on your investment? After all, the situation we are facing now is still very complicated. ”

"About that. I do have a couple of plans......"

Lin Feng's notebook seemed to have endless content. Now he turned a new page. Begin to point fingers and explain.

Others occasionally ask a few questions. But most of the time. They have to listen carefully. Economics is really not something that ordinary people can play. Although Lin Feng had already explained in the most popular language possible. There are only a handful of people who can keep up with his thinking. I've been trying hard to understand. With the experience he has seen in all his official and business paths. I can basically understand the meaning of Lin Feng's plans. However, this also caused his brow to wrinkle more and more:

"The construction you mentioned is not limited to Qiongzhou Mansion. And such as the establishment of banks. Issuing currencies for these. It's definitely not something that thirteen of us can do. It is necessary to go through the guò committee. Even the plenary meeting can be done through guò! And it's not easy to explain on the phone. So ......"

Dismissal of both hands:

"I'm not playing ball, you'd better write a complete book. Send it back to the Lord's base. Listen to the opinions of the other side to decide. ”

However, Lin Feng didn't seem to be disappointed at all. He looked prepared. patted the notebook:

"Of course. This is the draft of the proposal. As long as you agree. I'll go back and write the official text. At that time, I will have to trouble everyone to sign the building yì book together. ”

Xie Xi looked back at Pang Yu. The latter nodded slightly. So Lao Xie also nodded:

"Okay. Just about the details of this tax collection action. I'm going to write a report as well. When the time comes, we will send the merit together. You're our Greenspan

Pang Yu patted Lin Feng's shoulder next to him and smiled. The latter laughed. Stand up:

"I'd rather be a Keynes of the Ming Dynasty, and my mentor believes in him the most." The beginning is very important. Ask for votes, ask for votes (to be continued.) If you want to know what will happen next. Please lock qidian. cm。 More chapters. Support the author. Support positive
